At this moment, the appearance of this individual, whose exact level is unknown, but with his overwhelming power and elusive speed, made the crowd's scalp tingle. Is this still a traditional zombie? Particularly, as they watched him kill his way through, those who were planning to do something to Ross were immediately frightened and at a loss, and were literally scared out of their wits.
"Quick, stop him!"
"Why don't you go instead..." These operatives knew the consequences of fleeing, but facing this terrifying, bear-like figure, they were truly petrified. Any remaining courage they had was shattered when he effortlessly kicked over an armored vehicle.
This monster was Barrett Walker. At this moment, anger was the only thing left in his eyes, an endless anger towards those who mercilessly slaughtered the innocent. His eyes were filled with burning flames, as if ready to unleash his explosive fury at any moment. Kicking away the detestable armored vehicle, he glanced at the buzzing helicopter in the sky, roared at it, dodged a missile, then grabbed a person and hurled them into the air, watching as the exhausted Ross hung from the net. Barrett Walker's furious expression softened slightly, but suddenly a bullet struck his back, causing him to cry out in pain. Without hesitation, he grabbed the net and attempted to tear it open.
"Quickly increase the power to maximum and electrocute him." It was clear that the commanding officer had also been frightened by Barrett Walker. His voice trembled as he saw Barrett grab the electric net, and he immediately issued the command.
Sizzling! A series of electrical sparks flowed through Barrett Walker's body. Watching as flames suddenly erupted from his body, causing the onlookers to retreat, Barrett let out a howl, and suddenly found himself completely exposed, even his hair burning and falling away. His skin trembled continuously, clearly indicating that the mutated virus had been stimulated and was now resisting. Barrett's body expanded even further, and the blood vessels around his black pupils ruptured, turning his eyes white and red, making him appear terrifying and grotesque.
A crackling sound, not only did it stimulate his body, but also his strength. He easily tore through the electric net, and with a swift motion, several people were torn to pieces by the immense force of the net, creating a gruesome scene that only enhanced his terror.
Barrett Walker was covered in blood, clearly having been consumed by the virus, otherwise he would have passed out by now. At this moment, he was truly terrifying. The bullets raining down from the armed helicopter created a large dust cloud around him. Barrett Walker looked up at the helicopter, his eyes filled with destruction.
"Inspector, are you alright?" Dio was the main force in capturing Ross, and he was fortunate not to have been torn to pieces by the net. A man beside him quickly approached and inquired.
"I'm fine. This person is too terrifying. Inform the military department, and if there's a general nearby, tell them to hurry here. We've lost control here." Dio stood up, grabbed a long sword, and dreamt of having his own general's sword, a dream that was now seemingly impossible.
"Hey! Is this all you've got?" Dio saw Barrett Walker take notice of the helicopter in the sky, and immediately roared, attempting to divert his attention to make the rocket launcher effective.
Barrett Walker turned his head and looked at Dio with contempt.
"Hey! Is this all the courage you have? Even if I kill your kind, so what?" With that, Dio's sword viciously struck the ground where Ross lay.

Bang! No one saw how Dio was sent flying, but the furious expression on Barrett Walker's face spoke volumes about the force behind that punch. The colonel was slammed into the concrete wall, his body deformed and embedded in the wall. This high-ranking figure was completely unable to resist!
Whoosh! A rocket with a long tail of flames flew towards Barrett Walker. Dio had not delayed for long, but it was long enough to launch the rocket. Clearly, his plan was well thought out. As long as it landed near Barrett Walker, no matter how powerful he was, it would surely injure him. But reality was cruel. Barrett Walker swiftly grabbed the rocket, regardless of its high temperature. He then threw it back, accelerating towards the armed helicopter. With a deafening roar, a huge fireball erupted in the sky, casting a red glow over the university avenue. Burning fragments fell from the sky, and the huge rotor blades flew by, nearly grazing Barrett Walker's head and knocking down a large section of the surrounding wall.
Barrett Walker looked at the carnage outside the school, paying no attention to Ross, and let out a roar before charging out of the school.
Hero City had fallen into a state of blood and fire. The most chaotic source was not the mutated virus, but the panic. Countless people took advantage of the panic to cause chaos, while countless others fled in fear. Everywhere there was looting and killing. In this world oppressed by the apocalypse, even the slightest disturbance and the exaggeration of the government would cause widespread panic.
Amidst the blood and fire, the isolated slums remained eerily quiet. They were exclusive, yet united. Anyone who tried to disturb their luxurious peaceful life would face devastating consequences. They had no guns or cannons, only knives and sticks, yet they were able to defend their "stronghold".
Barrett Walker's killing spree continued, and he resembled an Asura emerging from hell with blood covering his body. Those timid individuals he had saved were petrified by his appearance, for he stood at over two meters tall, with a body as powerful as a bear and resembling the Hulk.
There were still many journalists lingering in Hero City. Many of them boldly followed Barrett Walker and captured every moment, as if his actions could be made into a real Hollywood blockbuster. This stirred the blood of the journalists, as they followed him, risking danger and possibly safety, depending on their courage.
The students who were ready to go to school were now hiding in an abandoned workshop, a combination of the slums and the city, and it was now considered a safe place. They had intended to return to school, but upon hearing about the virus infection, they had been quarantined. Now, a large group of students had gathered here, fighting and retreating, seeking refuge. The soldiers had already left them.
These people had never experienced such bloody events before, and as they huddled in the workshop, shivering and trembling, there were occasional comforting words from their teachers, which helped calm them down.
Danny sat under a lathe, leaning against the platform with one leg curled up. The infected individuals had been locked in the basement, but the students would still occasionally scream, clearly on edge and unable to withstand any more fright.
"Hey, you found a good hiding spot, blending into the darkness like that. Your camouflage is really good, can't even see you," Baren said, carrying a steel pipe as he walked over to Danny and sat down next to him, teasingly.
Danny's dark skin blended seamlessly with the darkness, making him hard to notice. Clearly, Baren's teasing did not amuse him, and he flashed a row of white teeth in response, taunting, "Don't get cocky, this virus doesn't care who you are."
"Get lost! You're the one who's a nobody!" Baren suddenly stood up.
Agh! Suddenly, an agonizing howl erupted from the darkness as a black man charged out, baring his sharp white teeth and lunging at Baren. It was a sudden and terrifying attack.
"Get lost! Die!" Despite Baren's usual carefree attitude, he wasted no time in this critical moment. With a swift blow from the steel pipe, he struck the infected individual at the base of the ear, creating a resounding crack and knocking him unconscious.
"You dare scare me, why don't you go die," watching the man being knocked out with a single blow, Baren did not let up and kicked the man's body, releasing the fear he had just experienced.
Meanwhile, Danny laughed heartily on the sidelines. A crowd had gathered, watching the actions of these two, each wearing a strange expression. David Green glanced at Mark Smith, who was hiding in the back, and sneered, "Hmph! If I stay with scum like you, we'll all die sooner or later. Anyone willing to go out with me to seek help?"
Helpless silence ensued.
