Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse

Back to the travel companions climbing up Mount M. Five of them went for the trip, but Big Beard was the only one who had returned from it. The locals took this issue quite seriously, but when they questioned Big Beard, he did not say a word. The locals had no choice but to hand him over to the police station.

The police who were inquiring him shook their heads when they saw Big Beard staring straight in a daze. They wondered what had happened to him for a rough, boorish man of 1.8 meters tall to be left with such an expression.

Only Chen Fei and Tong Youqing’s bodies were found among the four. Tong Youqing was Shorty. They had died horribly. Besides a huge hole found on their heads, there were different degrees of flesh-tearing wounds on their bodies. Chen Fei’s body was a traumatizing sight. His stomach had been torn open by some wild beast and even the skin of his stomach was gone.

The local coroner had seen many bodies of climbers who had fallen to their deaths or had been wounded from other situations. This was the first time he had seen such deaths.

“We’ve found Chen Fei and Tong Youqing’s bodies. Our coroner is preparing to conduct an autopsy. Can you tell us what happened? How did they die?” Officer Zhao, who was in charge of the inquiry, asked Big Beard.

“Bodies? Bodies! You can’t touch their bodies!” Big Beard suddenly slammed the table and stood up screaming at Office Zhao and the inquirers.

“Why can’t we touch their bodies?” Officer Zhao was curious. This Big Beard did not seem to be the murderer. Why would he care about those two bodies?

“You don’t know. All of you don’t know. Their bodies will infect you. Anyone infected will become flesh-eating monsters.”

Big Beard seemed to remember something as he suddenly sobbed erratically.

At that time, the three of them had started arguing over different opinions after they had pushed Old Chiang and Ding San off the cliff.

Old Chen had insisted for all three of them to align their stories to avoid any trouble. They would tell everyone that Old Chiang and Ding San had accidentally fallen off the cliff and died.

However, Big Beard did not agree to it. If something were to go wrong, it would become intent for murder even though it was legitimately an act of self-defense.

“Why do you mean legitimately an act of self-defense?! There are three of us and two of them. We would have stopped them quite easily. Who would believe that the two of them would turn into that together?!” Old Chen had argued with Big Beard unhappily.

“Wouldn’t our words be proven when their bodies are found?” Big Beard did not understand why Old Chen would be so afraid of telling the truth.

“Bodies? Mount M has such a high altitude, who would be able to find their bodies?” Old Chen still did not agree.

“Okay, okay, both of you stop arguing. Let’s climb down a little more before discussing this. The sky would be turning dark soon. It wouldn’t be safe here,” Shorty tried advising. He agreed with Old Chen. It would be better to save themselves from further trouble. The best way was to get out of it.

“Hmph, I damn well aren’t willing to fight with this stupid man,” Old Chen continued the climb down while cursing.

Big Beard was not bothered to continue the argument. He walked behind Old Chen and Shorty.

They did not dare stay put for long because they had thrown their equipment away and it was not the wisest decision to stay overnight here.

After that, it seemed that Old Chen and Shorty were in discussion about something. Arriving at a steeper cliff, they glanced at Big Beard, who was behind them. Shorty suddenly lunged at Big Beard and gripped him tightly, Big Beard was caught off guard and Old Chen pushed him down!

Big Beard had never expected both of them to be such ruthless characters. As he was falling, a thought flashed through his mind. He would never go online to find travel companions again. What sort of goddamn characters had he met with?

Miraculously, he did not fall to his death. He had crashed into a few ice blocks which caused him unbearable pain. There was a very tall cliff further lower. He had shielded his head with his hands in reflex but his body had unexpectedly started floating and he landed at the edge of the cliff safely!

Seeing his feet were less than 10 centimeters away from the edge of the cliff, Big Beard realized he was saved.

However, how did his body suddenly start floating? Could he have managed to learn Light Body Technique unknowingly?

At the thought of the two men who had pushed him down, Big Beard went looking for Old Chen and Shorty in a rage. He wanted to ask them why did they treat him this way.

As he returned to the original route he was on, he had witnessed a scene he would never forget for the rest of his life. Both Old Chen and Shorty were lying on the icy road. Old Chiang and Ding San were leaning on their bodies.

Old Chiang had torn open Old Chen’s stomach, digging something from inside with his hands and stuffing them into his mouth!

The sight was too gruesome. Big Beard nearly threw up. It was lucky that he had missed two meals and there was nothing inside his stomach for him to do so.

Old Chiang and Short detected the scent of a living human being very quickly. They stood up and walked toward Big Beard, limping slowly with their twisted arms and legs.

Did they not fall off the mountain? Why were they not dead?!

Big Beard noticed Ding San was missing an arm from the fall, yet he still pounced at Big Beard with his wide opened bloody mouth.

Big Beard decisively ran toward the cliff he had been at. If they did not die from one fall, he would make them fall again regardless if they were human or monsters!

Big Beard was faster and had reached the edge of the cliff before the two zombies behind him. He stopped and glared at them both, shouting at them, “Come on! Let’s see if you can take a bite out of me!”

Old Chiang and Ding San lunged at Big Beard excitedly when they saw he had stopped.

Big Beard stood firm and just as they were about to reach him, he dodged swiftly and nimbly behind them. Old Chiang and Ding San could not stop in time and fell off the cliff together!

It was his second brush with death. Big Beard wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead. He decided to turn back and check on Old Chen and Shorty. He should at least cover up their bodies with something. They had been travel companions, after all. Even though they had tried to murder him, but they were both dead now, and had died horrible deaths.

He had to admit that if not for Old Chen and Shorty’s murderous intent, he might have ended up just like both of them.

By the time Big Beard arrived at where their bodies were, he regretted his decision. It was because Old Chen and Shorty were reanimated. They were coming at him malevolently, just like Old Chiang and Ding San did!

“Damn it, I will never try to be Saint Maria again. Why did I f*cking come back to take care of your bodies!” Big Beard cursed.

Big Beard now only had a foldable alpenstock with him, which he had to use it to fight them both. It was lucky that his clothes were thick and solid, which helped protect him from their sharp claws.

Old Chen and Shorty did not seem to get tired. They ran as Big Beard ran, and did not slow down at being hit. Big Beard had even picked up a few stones to throw at them, only to realize it did not affect them.

Big Beard ran toward some stone steps with sharp icicles. Spotting the sharp icicles, he wanted to break them off and stab the two of them, who had yet to catch up.

He broke off two icicles easily. What was going on? This seemed too easy to break… Big Beard looked at the icicles in his hand questioningly.

Right then, Old Chen and Shorty came running at him. There was no time for Big Beard to think further. He smashed the icicles in his hands at both their heads!

“Let’s see you die from this!” Big Beard made the throw as he yelled.

Both icicles looked like sharp swords aided with an air stream, which pierced right through both their heads.

…

He stared at both men, nope, both monsters, who could no longer stand. Big Beard looked at his hands disbelievingly. What had just happened? Did he cultivate some kind of divine skill?

He was unable to react further even after arriving at the police station. The scenes on Mount M played repeatedly in his mind as if he just had a nightmare.

It was until the officer who was inquiring him had mentioned Old Chen and Shorty’s bodies that woke him up from the reverie.

They should not be touching those two bodies!!!
