Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 19: Ranking
Max, meanwhile, was a bit taken aback and almost mistook Maverick for a zombie. But upon noticing the towel covering Maverick’s face and his calm expression, Max relaxed.“Max, why are you quiet? Is something wrong?” a voice called from behind the door he had just exited.“No problem here. I spotted a human and almost mistook him for a zombie,” Max replied, his voice calm and posture steady. “You guys stay put. Wait for me to clean up the zombies here, and we’ll head to the next floor.”Finally, he looked at Maverick, pointed at three zombies close to him, then at Maverick, and then gestured to the five zombies near himself.Maverick instantly understood his words—or rather, his signs. Max was asking him to take care of the three zombies near him while Max handled the five closer to himself.Seeing this, Maverick nodded calmly, which seemed to relieve Max.Without hesitation, Max pulled out a long sword from his waist, dashed toward the first zombie, and swung it at its neck, slicing
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 20: Terrifying Mutant
"Interesting," Maverick muttered. While he didn’t fully grasp all the scientific jargon the man had used, the basic concept intrigued him. It hadn’t even been a day since the apocalypse began, yet humans in this world had already managed to devise a ranking system for the zombies' power levels!This development felt suspicious, almost as if it had been premeditated by someone behind the scenes.Turning his attention back to the handsome man in front of him, Maverick asked, “What does this have to do with me not going outside?”Max’s expression turned grim as he replied, “Someone spotted a Gamma-3 zombie outside.”Hearing this, Maverick’s expression hardened. “Gamma-3? How strong is it?”“That…” Max hesitated, his face twisted in a mix of unease and contemplation, before finally speaking. “I think it could take down ten of me at once.”Maverick's eyes narrowed, his tone skeptical. “That’s impossible, and you know it. It takes us several kills just to level up, thanks to the biolens tra
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 21: Joining Up
Most of the people were either younglings or elderly men. Maverick couldn't help but frown. Wouldn't it have been better to just leave them to their deaths? Carrying such a load of unhelpful people would only slow Max down. Not only that, but Max would have to fight while protecting them, which, to Maverick, was a complete waste of time.“Okay, guys, this here is Maverick. I stumbled upon him while clearing up the zombies," Max introduced him.But no one replied. The only sounds echoing were the sobs of some women and the moody silence of the men. Reality was sinking in, and perhaps some of them were already reflecting on how their loved ones hadn’t made it this far.Then, a man from the group stood up. He was dressed in a suit, his chubby face glistening with sweat. He approached Max, throwing a quick glance at Maverick before saying, “Max, why did you bring someone in? Don’t you know too many people means too many zombies on our tails? We need to minimize our numbers, not add more t
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 22: 40th Floor
20 Minutes Later“Alright, we’ve rested long enough for everyone to regain some energy. Let’s keep moving up,” Max announced firmly.No one complained as they stood up and continued climbing. They reached the 21st floor, then the 22nd, 23rd, and 24th, surprised to find no zombies on the stairs or in any of the rooms. The lack of threats made the group subconsciously relax. Some of the ordinary humans even began murmuring among themselves. As the saying goes, a drop of black ink spoils the white, and the murmuring grew louder and louder until Maverick couldn’t help but frown.Seeing Maverick’s displeasure, Max immediately understood his irritation. Just as Max was about to order the group to keep quiet, a loud banging sound erupted from a door beside them as they reached the 26th floor. The sudden noise froze everyone in place, silencing them instantly.Terror gripped the group as the banging continued, growing louder and more insistent, as though it had attracted more zombies to join
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 23: New Weapons
Seeing this, Max’s eyes lit up with happiness. He looked at Maverick with genuine gratitude and said, “An all-access key! You’ve been a huge help this time, and I’m sure the others will be grateful too. With this key, everyone can have their own rooms, keeping them apart and reducing the chances of conflict.”Twenty-five or twenty-six agitated people crammed into one room was a nightmare scenario Max could already foresee turning into chaos if left unchecked.With the key in hand, the two of them spent the next thirty minutes systematically clearing each room. They encountered a total of ten zombies, dispatching them easily. Since the zombies weren’t in large numbers, the task proved manageable for the duo.Finally, with all the zombies cleared, Max went downstairs to address the group of people who were waiting anxiously. Their faces carried a mixture of hope and fear as they waited for news.“The floor is clear now. You can all come up,” Max announced calmly, watching their expressi
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 24: Grinding Zombies For Points
“What a sad fate. Humans can never go against destiny, no matter the amount of preparation—except with true power. If only I had the absolute power of greed in my previous life, it would’ve been so much easier to kill that annoying Bruce Chen,” Maverick thought, sighing as he strapped the flying swords to his waist.With weapons in hand, Maverick immediately began devising a plan to grind the zombies. He needed to kill them in large numbers without drawing too much attention; otherwise, a swarm could overwhelm him and slow his progress. The aftermath of the nuclear explosion filled the air with a hazy fog, no doubt caused by radioactive particles."I forgot to collect a better mask," Maverick muttered, slapping his forehead. His impatience to increase his power had made him overlook this crucial detail.“Biolens, is there a way to become immune to the radiation in the air?” he asked, finally remembering the AI embedded in his consciousness. Its robotic, feminine voice responded instan

At the same time, it felt like the effects of the radiation in the air on him had slightly reduced, leaving him feeling refreshed.Looking at the door, which had finally been pushed open, Maverick stood up and started walking upward. Any zombie that came closer to him was instantly sent crashing back to the others by his axes.Given how many zombies Maverick had killed, one would expect their nu
Second Coming Of A Villain Chapter 26: Alert!
From the first floor, the battle had erupted like a storm of death, and Maverick had been forced to retreat relentlessly until he reached the twelfth floor. It was here, standing amidst a sea of destruction, that he finally confronted the horde toe-to-toe. The trail of carnage he left behind was nothing short of apocalyptic—corpses piled high, torn flesh smeared across walls, intestines strewn like grotesque decorations, and brain fluids pooling in sticky puddles. The stench of decay and iron choked the air.Even Maverick himself was not spared from the macabre artistry of the battle. His clothes were soaked in congealed blood and glistening brain matter, with bits of flesh clinging stubbornly to the fabric. His boots squelched with each step, coated in the crushed remains of human meat and viscous brain fluids. He looked like a warrior sculpted out of gore, a living monument to the fight for survival.After catching his breath, Maverick’s gaze swept the ruined stairway. He found a ro

They had a cautious expression on their faces, and their weapons were drawn as though preparing to fight to the death.Looking at them, Maverick immediately knew they had not been lazing around either, as their aura seemed stronger than before.Meanwhile, as soon as the four guys set their eyes on Maverick, their expressions changed drastically. Maverick's whole body was covered in his own blood. His chest appeared slightly carved in, added with the claw marks on his chest, arms, and bruises on his face, with his hair dusty and messy. Max and the others could swear that no ordinary human would survive in such a condition, even if there was medical equipment around for them to use.“What the hell did this to you?” Max finally couldn't help but yell in shock.Not only him, but Judy, Divine, and Jennifer appeared to be in a state of shock too upon witnessing his condition.To them, the cold, heartless, ruthless bastard of a man called Maverick, who had no issues killing a fellow human in

Chapter 46: Going Back To The Tech Company
Grabbing the beast core, Maverick didn’t hesitate to absorb it. He knew time was of the essence. In his current weakened state, any beast daring to stride into Sabertooth territory had to be either incredibly powerful or at least on equal footing with the apex predator. If such a creature stumbled upon him in such a frail and vulnerable state, it would snap him in half and devour him in one bite without hesitation.Giving a swift mental command to his biolens, Maverick initiated the absorption process. His eyes fixed on his palm as faint energy began to seep from the beast core, flowing into him. Slowly, the vibrant hues of the core dimmed, its once radiant luster fading entirely. Within seconds, Maverick had drawn out all the energy it held.A chilling sensation coursed through his arm, spreading from his palm to his chest, then directly to his heart, before dispersing into his limbs. The pain in his body dulled, replaced by a cool, soothing comfort. Unable to suppress the reaction,

Chapter 45: Gravely injured
The knife stabbed into the Sabertooth’s chin, upward, dealing deadly damage to the vascular structures and soft tissues in the neck and throat region.This led to excessive bleeding as the carotid arteries—major arteries supplying blood to the brain, face, and neck—were severed. The rupture or puncture of the carotid artery caused rapid and severe bleeding, but that alone wasn’t enough to put the beast down. What sealed its fate was the damage to the jugular veins, large veins that return deoxygenated blood from the head and neck to the heart. The damage caused significant bleeding as well.However, due to its incredibly high vitality, the Sabertooth didn’t die immediately. It continued struggling violently for a while, before finally going limp.[Ding!]Hearing the notification, Maverick felt as though he’d finally escaped the depths of hell.[Congratulations, you've eliminated a peak Gamma-3 Sabertooth. 10 Energy Points Extracted.]Maverick didn’t even glance at the notification.

Chapter 44: Final Death and life battle
Roarrr!!!Maverick felt as if his head had been struck by lightning as the roar pierced straight into his skull, making him stagger backward. His senses were distorted, and he felt dizzy and disoriented.Sensing this opportunity, the Sabertooth turned into afterimages and appeared before Maverick within the blink of an eye, its claws lifted high as it slammed down toward him with full force.BOOOM!A terrifying force, propelled by unimaginable might, slammed straight into Maverick like a super-fast flying dragon.In just one strike, Maverick felt as though all the bones in his body had turned to powder, his organs felt completely destroyed. His twin axes shattered instantly into multiple shards that scattered everywhere, while his body couldn't resist the impact. He soared backwards through the air like a meteor, flying off the three-story building and crashing straight into another structure nearby.With that attack, the Sabertooth strolled to the edge of the three-story building and

Suddenly, a glowing orange paw appeared behind Maverick. He instinctively sidestepped, but it was a fraction too late. The paw swiped across his back, leaving a deep gash that sent blood spraying into the air.Maverick gritted his teeth against the searing pain. He couldn't believe how lightning-fast the Sabertooth's reaction speed was. Its attacks came in relentless waves, offering no reprieve—completely unlike the partially mutated zombie, which always needed a short pause before attacking again.Without a moment to spare, Maverick rolled to his side and turned, only to find the Sabertooth’s massive paw already arcing toward his face. Knowing fully well that the attack can smash his face to pulp, Maverick quick reflexes kicked in. Quickly raising his twin axes, he crossed them in front of him in a desperate defensive posture.BANG!The force of the blow slammed into him like a freight train, sending shockwaves through his body and crushing his internal organs. Maverick’s body was hu

Chapter 42: Life And Death Battle With A Sabertooth
Maverick didn’t flinch, his expression calm as the zombie lunged at him with clawed hands outstretched. His speed, already twice that of a peak human or even a normal zombie, gave him a significant advantage. As the creature swiped, he sidestepped fluidly, evading the attack with practiced ease.Without hesitation, he grabbed the zombie by its filthy, matted hair and slammed its head against the concrete wall with a force that shook the foundation.Pop!The sound was sickening, like the shattering of an overripe watermelon. Blood and brain matter exploded outward, splattering the wall in a grotesque display. Maverick didn’t even blink at the mess. He was already scanning his surroundings, his eyes locking onto three more zombies shambling toward him.Two of the undead were horribly disfigured, their flesh partially melted from what appeared to be fire damage. Their skin sagged, revealing blackened muscle and bone beneath, yet they continued to stagger and crawl forward, it was like th

Chapter 41: Exploring The New World
Bang!Dust and debris shot skyward in a violent plume as the ground trembled beneath Maverick’s feet. The force of the impact rippled outward, spreading cracks like a spiderweb across the concrete.Rumble!With a deafening roar, the compromised section of the garage collapsed. The structural pillar, weakened and barely holding on, gave way entirely. Hundreds of zombies caught beneath the rubble were obliterated. Flesh and bones were crushed into indistinguishable pulp under the immense weight of falling rocks and twisted metal rods.Maverick didn’t wait to marvel at the destruction as the cracks reaches his side. He instinctively retreated deeper into the garage, his boots scraping against the unsteady ground. The section he moved to had been spared collapse, its supporting pillar still intact and holding firm.Standing at the edge of safety, Maverick’s gaze swept over the carnage. Seeing this, he knew he has reduced their numbers, meaning he is free, for now. With the Gamma Level 3 z

"No," Maverick replied, shutting his eyes as he tried to absorb the large amount of information he had just received. It was overwhelming for him; he never expected the power levels of this world to be so complicated and intricate.Not only were the materials needed to break through to the next level hard to obtain, but even if one managed to gather them, there was still the chance of dying in the process, turning insane, or worse—mutating into a grotesque creature.Unlike in his world, where one only had to guard against developing an inner demon while cultivating, the challenges of this world were far more intense.Sighing in frustration and exhaustion, Maverick quickly turned his attention to the skills he had just unlocked as he massage his eyebrows. Immediately, his eyes lit up with anticipation.---[3 Skills.]"Show me the first skill," Maverick commanded without hesitation.
