Doomsday: Starting from the Titanic

Chapter 128 The Corrupted Wang Fei

I don't know how much time had passed, but it was already 5:50 PM, and the sky was beginning to lighten.

Fu Xi and his group had escaped the black fog area, and the Titanic's speed gradually decreased, slowly sailing on the unfamiliar waterline.

"Knock knock knock!"

Just then, footsteps came from the driver's cab, and Li Xue walked over carrying a bowl of instant noodles.

"Captain, it's dawn. I'll take over now. You should eat something and rest..." Li Xue said softly, giving Fu Xi a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Alright, where are Xiao Tuan and the others?" Fu Xi picked up her instant noodles and started eating. There were some dried green cabbages on top.

With each bite, Fuxi felt incredibly refreshed. "Hmm? When did instant noodles become so delicious?"

"I feel so comfortable? Is it because I've been starving?" Just as Fu Xi was pondering this, a loud crash was heard, and Yu Wenwen ran over crying.

"Xiao Fu, Sister Xiao Tuan and Sister Ru Hua have gone mad, they...they..." Yu Wenwen was breathing rapidly and couldn't say anything coherent.

However, before Yu Wenwen could continue speaking, a hand appeared on the door frame of the driver's cab with a bang.

Seeing the familiar sleeve, Fu Xi recognized the visitor at a glance. "Wang Fei, what are you doing here? Why aren't you resting?"

The air was deathly silent. No matter what Fu Xi said, Wang Fei remained silent, like a dead man.

"Hmm?" Fu Xi gradually realized something was wrong and immediately shielded Yu Wenwen and Li Xue behind her.

Looking at Fu Xi before him, Yu Wenwen felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his heart, and his breathing finally returned to normal. He then shouted:

"Xiao Fu, he's no longer Wang Fei!"

"Huh? If he's not Wang Fei, then who is he? Yu Wenwen, everyone just came out of a dangerous place, don't joke around!"

Li Xue looked at Yu Wenwen with suspicion, which made Yu Wenwen quite angry.

"I'm not kidding! In fact, he is Wang Fei, but he is also not Wang Fei!"

Yu Wenwen was so angry that her face turned red, and she didn't know what to say for a moment, but it was clear that Li Xue hadn't heard her clearly.

She crossed her arms and looked at Yu Wenwen, somewhat speechless.

"Yu Wenwen, is he Wang Fei or not? Are you playing riddles with me? The captain is tired, he doesn't have time..."

Before Li Xue could finish speaking, an unexpected incident occurred. Wang Fei bared his teeth and charged at Li Xue like a madman, but fortunately, Fu Xi stopped him.

"Wang Fei?" Fu Xi sensed something was wrong, and coupled with what Yu Wenwen had said earlier, she had a vague guess in her mind.

Fu Xi grabbed Wang Fei and pinned him down. Despite his frantic struggles, it was all in vain. Then, Fu Xi's gaze fell on Yu Wenwen.

"Yu Wenwen, are you trying to say that Wang Fei is somewhat delirious?"

Fu Xi hit the nail on the head, and Yu Wenwen nodded frantically, realizing her meaning had been understood.

"Xiao Fu, you're so clever! That's exactly what I meant!"

Having received a definite answer, Fuxi's gaze quickly fell on Wang Fei's eyes.

"Ugh!"

His pupils were filled with black blood vessels, as if he had blindness, and his head would twitch from time to time.

Fu Xi frowned, her gaze turning again to Yu Wenwen behind her. "Yu Wenwen, when did he become like this?"

"Now... no! To be precise, he was acting strangely as soon as he got back last night, but it's only now that it's really come to a head!" Yu Wenwen analyzed seriously.

"Last night?" Fu Xi immediately focused her thoughts on the black mist from the lava giant's self-destruction.

He was acting strangely last night, but luckily the golden stone helped him.

"Yu Wenwen, why did you come alone? Where are Ru Hua and the others?" Li Xue asked in shock.

"My sister and Xiaotuan are also not doing well, otherwise I wouldn't have come here..."

Fu Xi frowned, sensing something was wrong. He immediately placed the golden stone on Wang Fei.

The golden stone immediately emitted a light screen several meters in diameter, and under this light, the strangeness in Wang Fei's body instantly disappeared.

He then opened his eyes in confusion and looked curiously toward the driver's seat:

"How...how did I get here?" Wang Fei struggled to move, only to find himself pinned down by Fu Xi.

"Huh? Fuxi, what are you doing?" Wang Fei looked at Fuxi in shock, but Fuxi did not immediately let go of him.

"Wang Fei, is it really you?" Fu Xi asked earnestly, but this displeased Wang Fei.

"Fu Xi, what do you mean? If I'm not Wang Fei, what am I? You haven't been reading too many cultivation novels, have you?"

Wang Fei was speechless for a moment, but he quickly realized something was wrong.

"Wait, why are you asking me this? You wouldn't normally be so bored; when you do ask, it's usually for a reason!"

A sense of foreboding immediately spread through Wang Fei, and then he looked around and became even more certain of what he was thinking.

"How did I end up in the driver's seat? I was so tired last night, shouldn't I be resting? Could it be that I...?"

Wang Fei seemed to remember something, looking at Fu Xi with a shocked expression, "Could it be that I walked here by myself?"

"That's right, you came here by yourself!" Fu Xi said solemnly, but Wang Fei didn't believe her at all.

"How is this possible? How could I have come here by myself!" Wang Fei refused to believe it, and his gaze quickly locked onto Yu Wenwen, who was hiding behind Fu Xi.

"Yu Wenwen, is this some kind of prank you played?!" Wang Fei said angrily.

But Yu Wenwen, who was always carefree, seemed to have seen something unbelievable. She hid behind Fu Xi, trembling, and refused to speak.

Wang Fei wanted to press further, but Fu Xi interrupted him, "Alright, Wang Fei, no one is playing a prank on you. You really did come this far on your own."

"You know I rarely joke around. You can ask Li Xue and the others if you don't believe me!" Fu Xi said seriously.

Wang Fei initially didn't believe it, but seeing Li Xue nod and Yu Wenwen hiding behind Fu Xi, he finally believed it.

"It's not a prank? I really walked here by myself!" Wang Fei looked bewildered, and Li Xue quickly spoke up.

"You were about to attack me, but luckily the captain captured you!" Li Xue said earnestly.

Wang Fei felt Fu Xi beside him, then looked at Yu Wenwen and realized everything made sense. "Fu Xi, what's wrong with me?"

In contrast, Fu Xi looked grave. "I don't know either, but I have a guess: it's the black aura from the lava giant's self-destruction last night!"

"Black mist?" Wang Fei suddenly realized, "So that's what it was! I thought it was just from overexertion, but it turns out to be the truth!"

"So what do we do next?" Wang Fei asked Fu Xi, puzzled.

"Get up first! Be careful not to leave the golden light!" Fu Xi stood up, and Wang Fei was immediately enveloped in the golden light.

But he quickly realized something was wrong. He looked curiously at Yu Wenwen and the other person, "Why are they unharmed even though they weren't standing within the golden light's range?"

"That's because they were far away last night and didn't inhale the black energy. Okay, enough talk, let's go outside and take a look!"

Led by Fuxi, the group quickly arrived on the deck, where they saw Sishui, Ruhua, and the other two engaged in a chaotic battle.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Tuan Tuan, holding a machete, was approaching the two step by step.
