102: Chapter 102 Moonlight shines before my bed, two pairs of shoes lie on the floor.

He bent down to pick up the laser sword and pressed the button on the hilt; the red light blade lit up.

He held the laser sword up to his eyes, the red light blade reflecting in his pupils like two burning fires.

Wang Lin smiled and stored the laser sword inside his space ring.

Then, he turned and walked toward the doorway.

Han Yue was slumped in the corner; he let out a sigh of relief as he watched Wang Lin's retreating figure disappear through the doorway.

In the hallway, Wang Lin walked at a steady, leisurely pace.

The corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he was in a good mood.

His space ring now held a laser sword with a red light blade, and his body possessed two new Superpowers.

Absolutely awesome!!!

He walked past door after door; behind each one, people were frantically scrambling for loot.

Some had grabbed berserk potions and downed them in one gulp, causing their muscles to swell and veins to bulge, making them look like enraged beasts.

Others had seized mental enhancers and were closing their eyes, feeling the new power surging within them.

Still others had snatched healing potions, injecting them into their arms as their wounds healed at a Speed visible to the naked eye.

Wang Lin did not stop; he had no need for any of those things.

He walked up to a door that was left ajar, a faint, dim yellow light spilling out from the crack.

He glanced inside and saw only one person in the room.

Wang Lin recognized him—it was Shi Gan, Commander Tie Mu's most loyal subordinate.

He was there alone, rummaging through things; he must have just arrived, hoping to find something valuable.

Wang Lin's eyes lit up.

This was a perfect opportunity; if he killed him, he could obtain the Earth Ability.

The corners of Wang Lin's mouth curled up slightly as he raised his hand and touched his face.

[Thousand Faces] activated.

His face began to change, shifting from Wang Lin into Liu Kun.

Afterward, Wang Lin walked toward Shi Gan. "Shi Gan? So you're here; I've been looking for you for a long time."

Shi Gan's body stiffened abruptly.

He stopped rummaging, his shoulders tensing up like a fully drawn bow.

"Liu Kun? How did you find this place?"

Wang Lin walked behind him and stopped. "I was looking for you. I have something good for you."

"What is it?"

Wang Lin pulled his hand out of his pocket and let it hang at his side, his palm splitting open.

A Tentacle crawled out from his palm, hiding within his sleeve, ready to strike at any moment.

"Serum. A serum that can cure the zombie virus. I obtained two, so I'm giving you one."

Shi Gan stared intensely at the Liu Kun in front of him. "Moonlight before the bed."

Wang Lin paused in surprise.

Moonlight before the bed? What was this? A code? A secret handshake code?

But there was no time for Wang Lin to overthink it, so he replied, "Lowering my head to think of my hometown."

Shi Gan's fist smashed toward him.

Wang Lin retreated instantly.

He backed away three meters and stood at the doorway, watching Shi Gan.

Shi Gan did not pursue him, his gaze cold as he looked at Wang Lin. "You're definitely not Liu Kun."

Wang Lin looked at Shi Gan as his face shifted from Liu Kun back to Wang Lin.

"How did you figure it out?"

"Liu Kun told me long ago. You killed Shadow and obtained the Thousand Faces Superpower, so he gave me a code."

Wang Lin smiled. "Then what is the code? Did I not get it right?"

Shi Gan replied, "It should be: 'Moonlight before the bed, two pairs of shoes on the floor.'"

Wang Lin nodded. "I'll remember that."

Shi Gan only then realized that Wang Lin had been fishing for information and that he had fallen for the trap. "You were trying to trick me into talking?"

"You said it yourself. I didn't force you."

Shi Gan gritted his teeth, a grinding sound echoing, while an earth-yellow light swirled around his fingertips.

[Earth Element] Superpower activated instantly; like a bolt of lightning, he threw a punch toward Wang Lin's face.

Wang Lin did not retreat.

He likewise activated [Vajra Transformation] and met Shi Gan's fist. The two fists collided with a dull, thunderous boom.

Both men retreated half a step.

Shi Gan was somewhat surprised. "I didn't expect that a kid at LV3 would have strength not inferior to mine."

To deal with a brute like Shi Gan, Wang Lin decided to provoke him first. "It's mostly because your commander's Superpower is so useful."

Upon hearing this, Shi Gan flew into a rage. "You're courting death! Today, either you die, or I do."

Shi Gan clenched his fist again, the earth-yellow light shining even brighter.

He swung his fist, striking toward Wang Lin again.

Wang Lin swung his fist in return, and a dark golden light exploded against the earth-yellow light between them.

Fist met fist, creating a dull, thunderous boom, one after another.

After dozens of punches, both men retreated half a step, their breathing ragged, yet neither had fallen.

Both of their arms were trembling.

They looked at each other, feeling as though they had finally met an equal match.

Wang Lin mocked, "You're nothing special."

"You can't even beat someone at LV3. You're nowhere near as good as your commander."

Shi Gan's eyes turned red, and he shouted angrily, "You're courting death!"

He slammed both hands onto the ground, and an earth-yellow light erupted from his palms.

The ground began to vibrate.

Then, rows of spikes erupted from the ground, sharp as blades.

They thrust toward Wang Lin.

Earth Spikes, an intermediate skill of the Earth Element Superpower, could turn the ground into a deadly trap.

Wang Lin leaped into the air, flipping over once.

Then he dove downward, throwing a punch toward Shi Gan's face.

Shi Gan lifted his hands from the ground, crossing them in front of him as the earth-yellow light erupted once more.

A stone wall rose up before him.

Wang Lin's fist smashed into the stone wall with a thunderous boom.

The stone wall didn't budge, not even showing a single crack.

Wang Lin's arm went numb from the impact, his entire right arm trembling uncontrollably.

He landed on the ground and stepped back twice.

The stone wall slowly dissipated, revealing Shi Gan behind it.

"You can't break my defense. Earth Wall is a technique that's very difficult to break, even for a LV6."

Wang Lin laughed. "Is that so? Then watch closely, and see me shatter your Earth Wall with one punch."

Wang Lin clenched his right fist, activating [Vajra Transformation] once more.

He struck toward Shi Gan again, accompanied by a whistling wind.

Shi Gan raised his hands again, and the earth-yellow light erupted once more.

A stone wall rose up before him, blocking the space between them and obscuring their view of each other.

At the same time he threw his punch, Wang Lin reached into his space ring.

His fingers touched the hilt of the laser sword.

He pressed the button on the hilt, and the red light blade lit up with a buzzing sound.

Without hesitation, he thrust the sword into the Earth Wall.

The red light blade sliced through the stone wall.

Shi Gan watched as that red light pierced through the Earth Wall and punched through from the other side, carrying the aura of death.

His pupils constricted sharply, and his body instinctively tried to dodge, but it was clearly too late.

The red light blade had already pierced his chest; blood gushed from the wound, splattering onto the floor and the wall.

A scream like a slaughtered pig erupted from Shi Gan's throat.

He looked down at his chest and the red light blade. "You… you… despicable…"

Wang Lin did not wait for him to finish.

He twisted his right hand, and the laser sword turned violently inside Shi Gan's chest.
