God-Like Extraction

Chapter 96 – Handsome With An Impressive Presence

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Jingxing had roughly figured out that the practice time of a Martial Arts Practice Card had to do with how long the corpse had been controlled.

Just like the barbarians controlled by Duan Feihong’s gang.

The longer one had been controlled, the longer the practice time in the Martial Arts Practice Card extracted.

And vice versa.

This Martial Arts Practice Card came from the Corpse Puppet in the Cloud Sea Square. It had only appeared for less than five minutes, so why did this Martial Arts Practice Card extracted from it contain 16 years of practice time?

“Was this Corpse Puppet also under the control of others for many years before its death?”

Like Wang Yuning, the student who committed suicide by jumping off a building, it had never been free?

This is why it contained 16 years of practice time?

Su Jingxing put the card away as he pondered and rushed to the intersection.

After waiting at the intersection for half a minute, he got on the corpse transportation truck and headed straight for the square.

…

Dead people.

Dead people everywhere.

The Corpse Puppet raid killed more than 500 people in a few minutes.

More than 500 people were also injured or trampled to death by the hundreds of thousands of people running around in panic.

Therefore, when Su Jingxing arrived at the center of Cloud Sea Square with the truck, everywhere in sight was full of injured people and incomplete corpses.

A dozen ten ambulances couldn’t even manage, and five corpse transportation trucks were moving in and out.

Gu Bo, Feng Tiejian, and the other members of Team One who were not injured did not have time to rest. Together with Su Jingxing and the other Corpse Collection Teams who had rushed here, they started to move the corpses.

It was mainly gathering a complete corpse and putting it into a corpse bag.

The Corpse Puppet was quick and fierce. With one charge, it dismembered more than ten people.

What Su Jingxing and the others had to do was to find the scattered corpse pieces and piece them back together.

Then, toss them into the corpse transportation truck to be brought back to the crematorium. Once there, do a simple documentation of particulars and send them to the incinerator, turning them into ashes.

There was no time for farewell ceremonies.

No one knew how many Corpse-raising Devil Insect Eggs were lying in ambush in the Cloud Sea Square.

This single translucent little creature like a tadpole could turn a corpse into a Corpse Puppet.

If there were still remnants of the Corpse-raising Devil Insect Eggs left in the mall and they crawl into the corpses on the square after smelling the blood,that would be a disaster.

Therefore, the City Guard Office ordered that all the corpses must be cremated within 36 hours.

There were two crematoriums in Qinghe City. A big one in the Western District and a small one over in the Eastern District.

Originally, the Eastern District’s crematorium was only responsible for the bodies from the district and the university town.

This time, the two crematoriums worked together. The Corpse Collection Teams, the information registration offices, the customer service offices, the transport teams…

Everyone was mobilized.

After working hard for a day and two nights, they finally sent all the corpses into the incinerator and turned them into ashes. These ashes would then be brought back by their respective relatives to bid farewell or be buried.

As for whether there were any mistakes made, it was not important.

Ever since the arrival of the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect, every major city in Earth Star had encountered tragedies caused by Corpse Puppets every year.

The number of casualties ranged from the hundreds to the thousands. The people were already used to it.

Why did everyone on Earth Star worship the strong and wish to become a martial artist?

This was the reason!

When Corpse Puppets appeared in the city, ordinary people could only wait for death if they couldn’t escape in time.

Martial artists were different. Even if they were no match for the Corpse Puppets, they could still put up some resistance and escape in time.

The Corpse Puppets’ speed was like that of cheetahs, and ordinary firearms could not hit them at all.

Even if they did, it would not break through their solid bodies!

…

“It is different this time.”

In the dormitory, Su Jingxing, Feng Tiejian, and the other members of Team One were looking at Kong Dabao with an ankle injury, who was lying on the bed and resting. Suddenly, someone walked in.

Wu Shouhan!

As the director of the crematorium walked, he said in a low voice, “The Corpse Puppet this time is already confirmed to be one at the intermediate level. Compared to low-level Corpse Puppets, it is faster and tougher. We can say that we were quite lucky to be able to kill it. There happened to be a fourth-grade expert near Cloud Sea Square who heard the commotion and rushed over in time to kill the Corpse Puppet. Otherwise, the number of deaths this time would be far more than a thousand!”

“…”

The dormitory was silent.

Kong Dabao, Feng Tiejian, Gu Bo, and the others were shocked.

Intermediate-level Corpse Puppet?

It was no wonder that its destructive power was so terrifying. In a single charge, it could kill and injure a dozen people.

It turned out that the level of the Corpse-raising Devil Insect Egg that manipulated the Corpse Puppet this time was of an even higher level!

That’s right, there were different levels to the Corpse-raising Devil Insect Eggs.

In most cases, the Corpse Devil Insect eggs that appeared were all low-level.

For example, the Mei Jinju that Su Jingxing and Gu Bo encountered the last time was a low-level Corpse Puppet.

Above low level were the intermediate and advanced levels.

Martial artists in the lower ranks were simply no match for Corpse Puppets at the intermediate level.

Only martial artists in the middle ranks who have cultivated true energy can take care of them.

If not dealt with in time, an intermediate-level Corpse Puppet could cause tens of thousands of casualties.

As for advanced-level Corpse Puppets, Yu Nation had yet to see one, but they have appeared in other countries.

One appearance had killed and injured hundreds of thousands.

In the end, it took the joint efforts of several second-grade powerhouses to finish it.

So.

It was truly lucky that the intermediate-level Corpse Puppets had been dealt with in five minutes after it appeared in Cloud Sea Square.

Coincidentally, there was a “fourth-grade expert” in the vicinity!

…

“So he’s a fourth-grade. I was wondering why he was so powerful. He killed the Corpse Puppet with one punch.”

Feng Tiejian came back to his senses and murmured emotionally.

“That’s right. With an intermediate-level Corpse Puppet, a sixth-grade martial artist can at most draw it away, a fifth-grade one can occupy it. But only a fourth-grade expert can kill it with one punch!” Gu Bo sighed.

“I saw that fourth-grade expert.”

Kong Dabao, who had his legs crossed, said rather excitedly, “You guys didn’t see. At that time, I was only ten meters away from him! I saw him descend from the sky and kill the Corpse Puppet with one punch! That posture, that imposing manner, that aura——he was simply amazing!”

“Is that so? Quickly, tell me, what does that fourth-grade expert look like?”

Feng Tiejian’s eyes lit up when he heard this. “Male or female? Tall or short? Fat or thin?”

The others also looked curious and pricked up their ears in interest.

“A male! He’s very tall and muscular!”

Kong Dabao gestured with his hands and said excitedly, “As for his looks, he’s exceptionally handsome, elegant and charming with an impressive presence. I can guarantee that any woman who sees him will instantly fall in love with him!”

“Really…”

“Cough cough ~”

Su Jingxing couldn’t help but cough and interrupt him. “Um, the director is here. Aren’t you guys going to greet him?”

As a “fourth-grade expert” who was “exceptionally handsome with an impressive presence”, Su Jingxing had to remind them.

“Haha, no need for that, no need for that.”

When Wu Shouhan heard this, he waved his hand and said with a smile, “We’re meeting in private. There’s no need to greet me. Other than visiting Dabao, I just wanted to share that we’ve investigated the background of this Corpse Puppet.”

“That’s great!”

Feng Tiejian clapped his hands and asked, “Uncle Wu, quickly tell us who it was. Who was this Corpse Puppet when she was alive? And who killed her?”

“Ke Wenji.”

Wu Shouhan said in a deep voice, “The Corpse Puppet was called Ke Wenji when she was alive. She committed s*icide.”

“What? S*icide?”

Gu Bo, Feng Tiejian, and Kong Dabao were stunned.

Su Jingxing raised his eyebrows.

“That’s right, it was s*icide.”

Wu Shouhan continued, “Ke Wenji left behind a video that recorded her s*icide and the reason.”

“Reason? What was the reason?” Kong Dabao couldn’t help but ask.

“Revenge!”
