Chapter 4: Human Nature Is Evil

"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the skill - 'Gene Lock' (LV.1)!"

Of course, Jimmy had read the novel "Terror Infinity".

There are five levels of gene locks in total, and each upgrade to a higher level will bring enormous power to the opener.

The skill you have now acquired has been activated at the first stage by default, and its duration is five minutes.

But this is not the most important thing. Jimmy saw three big words at the back.

Upgradable!

This also means that this is not a rigid skill that never changes!

If given the chance, Jimmy could even reach the second, third or even higher levels of power.

"Awesome!"

Thinking of this, Jimmy couldn't help but clench his fists excitedly.

In the cruel alien world, all you can do is plunder or be plundered. Without strong power, it is difficult to survive in this chaotic world.

Not to mention, there are also people like Momonga who are also time travelers in this world.

Rather than pinning his hopes on the other party to let him go because they are both from Earth, Jimmy would rather choose to believe in himself.

He didn't want to be a two-legged sheep on Demiurge's ranch.

Also don't want to be baptized by shalltear In a public room.

A powerless weak person has to do everything he can just to survive.

Not to mention, there are also malicious natural and man-made disasters , the village that was just destroyed is the best proof.

The kind and honest villagers did nothing wrong, but still became the victims of the swords of the Emperial Knights.

"Um?"

When I thought of the dead villagers, a strange feeling suddenly came to my mind.

That was the last remnant of the original soul of this body.

At the same time, the system's voice sounded again.

"Ding! Do you want to accept the mission 'Let go of regrets'? You will get 400 points if you complete the mission!"

Since I want to become stronger, in addition to the training I must do next, the system lottery is obviously the best shortcut.

Jimmy silently accepted it, and the content of the mission immediately appeared in his mind.

'Let's get rid of regrets' - C-rank mission

"To avenge the villagers who once helped you, to purify the last trace of resentment in the souls that should have disappeared, please kill the Emperial Knights who attacked the village!"

"Killing all those scum... that's exactly what I want!"

After seeing the content of the mission, a bloodthirsty light suddenly appeared in Jimmy's eyes.

Of course, it was because his body had turned into a vampire, but more importantly, it was because of the hatred he felt for those imperial knights.

The guy who was burned to death by the fire at the beginning, when he first saw that he had no power to resist, had a look of disappointment and disgust on his face.

If you take killing as fun, then you can't blame anyone, if you get killed by others.

Feeling the power filling his body, a sneer appeared on Jimmy's lips and he turned back towards the village.

"Did Mad and the others get killed?"

At this time, standing in the ruins of the village, a knight who looked like a captain frowned and said.

Beside him were four knights dressed in the same manner, who looked to be his subordinates.

And Mad was obviously the name of one of the three unlucky guys who died.

The mission of their team of eight people who originally came to the Katze Plains this time was a very simple one.

Although it was just the destruction of a few small villages on the border, it was also part of the Empire's food containment strategy against the Kingdom, and the details of the task could not be ignored.

But in such a small mission, three people died in the blink of an eye!?

Are you kidding me!?

The knight who looked like the captain seemed to have seen the horrifying scene of his boss cursing at him.

Several subordinate knights looked at each other and did not dare to respond to the captain's words for fear of becoming a punching bag.

It's strange to say, a remote village like this - there are no decent armed forces, and there are no ambushing kingdom soldiers nearby. If there were, they would have come to kill us long ago.

How did he die?

"Could it be... an undead monster?" a soldier asked weakly at this time.

As we all know, the Katze Plain is a cursed and ominous place.

Because some undead monsters, such as skeletons, zombies or vampires, often appear here, and the reasons for their appearance are unknown.

"That's very possible."

After hearing his subordinates' words, the knight who looked like a captain nodded, as if this was the only explanation.

More importantly, he now has a reason to explain to his superiors when he returns.

"Then let's retreat quickly!"

The knight waved his hand and told his men to leave quickly.

Since we already know that there are undead lurking nearby, we should try not to encounter them and avoid unnecessary battles.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the fog around him was getting thicker.

"There's someone over there!"

Just then, one of his subordinates suddenly shouted loudly, which scared him.

Turning around, I saw a young man with very delicate features.

Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he was obviously from this village. I must have missed it just now.

"He actually came to our door himself, kill him!" A fierce light flashed in the eyes of the knight who looked like the captain.

"yes!"

The same thing appeared in the eyes of the four knights, that is, the desire for killing.
