Hehe, You’re Done for-I’m Telling Your Mom!

"Holy crap, a Horse Hunter!"

Even Fang Mo couldn’t help crying out when he saw this bizarre thing.

In fact, Fang Mo was handling it fairly well. Everyone else was already dumbstruck, especially Jonathan, whose eyes widened in disbelief. "Dio… he’s already creating companions like this?"

But they were the main cast, after all, and someone quickly calmed down.

For example, Zeppeli and Erina.

"Stand back."

Zeppeli suddenly pulled out a bottle of wine. As he poured it into a glass, he said, "I’ll handle this one. JoJo, remember this: some things, I’ll demonstrate only once."

After saying that, Zeppeli slowly walked over to stand before the strange man.

"You… should be a Zombie Human, shouldn’t you?"

Zeppeli coldly stared at the muscular brute across from him. "You feed on humans and gain immortality and strength, yet you can be ordered around at will by the man with the Stone Mask. In the end, you’re nothing more than a living puppet."

"Hehehe, let you experience extreme terror first."

However, the Zombie Human paid Zeppeli no attention at all. Instead, his face twisted with savage excitement as he plunged his knife into his own carotid artery with a squelch, wearing an expression of insane exhilaration. "Once your faces turn pale with fear, I’ll gut you and savor your warm fresh—"

Before he could finish, a potion bottle suddenly smashed directly into his face.

"What was that!?"

The Zombie Human instinctively wiped his face, but he quickly sensed that something was wrong. "Huh? What’s… what’s happening to my strength?!"

The Zombie Human suddenly weakened. Before he could even finish showing off, he dropped to one knee.

"Sir Mage?"

Zeppeli was also puzzled. He had planned to use the Zombie Human to teach Jonathan how to fight, so why had the mage attacked first?

"Sorry, this guy is such an idiot of a villain… I really couldn’t control myself."

Fang Mo slowly walked over, grabbed the Zombie Human’s head with one hand, and lifted him from the ground. With his other hand, he casually squeezed. There was a crack, and the man’s jawbone was instantly crushed into pulp. "There should be other practical combat segments later, so leave this one to me for experimentation."

"You… dare…"

The Zombie Human muttered through the pain, his speech slurred. He immediately yanked the knife from his neck and stabbed it toward Fang Mo.

But before his hand could rise, an enormous force seized all four of his limbs.

"What…"

The Zombie Human froze. Then, in the next instant, an irresistible force tore all four of his limbs off alive, like being drawn and quartered. Blood sprayed from the severed ends as though it cost nothing.

Unbearable agony instantly flooded the Zombie Human’s nerves, making him howl again and again.

Fang Mo, however, felt nothing. This guy was a thoroughly evil bastard to begin with, so he casually pulled a Golden Apple from his pocket and forcibly stuffed it into the man’s mouth.

Since his jaw had been crushed and he couldn’t swallow, Fang Mo thoughtfully punched him in the mouth.

That blow shattered the Zombie Human’s teeth, tongue, and entire mouth, forcing the Golden Apple’s juice down his throat along with the wreckage.

"M-Mr. Steve…"

Erina was dumbfounded when she saw this. She was the only person present who recognized the Golden Apple, and she couldn’t help asking, "What are you trying to do?"

"Oh, just a simple trait test."

Fang Mo casually tossed the Zombie Human to the ground and wiped the blood from his hands. "I want to see whether a Zombie can turn back into a human."

"But… hasn’t this man already killed many people?"

Speedwagon was also stunned for a moment. Then he couldn’t help showing an admiring expression. "Sir Mage, could it be that you want to save him? How kind-hearted you are, possessing a heart as golden as—"

"No, I just want to torture him."

Fang Mo cheerfully shook his head. "After turning back into a human, his pain receptors will regenerate too. For this kind of lunatic, simply killing him is useless. To kill someone, you have to break their spirit. As a doctor, what I’m best at is torturing patients… Damn it, I let that slip!"

"…"

Everyone fell silent.

"Ahem." Fang Mo coughed, then asked everyone, "You… didn’t hear anything you shouldn’t have, right?"

"No, no."

Speedwagon hurriedly shook his head. "We were all thinking about Dio just now. We didn’t hear a thing."

"Look! Something seems wrong with this Zombie Human!"

As they spoke, Jonathan suddenly pointed at the ground. Everyone instinctively looked at the unfortunate Zombie Human, only to discover that he was convulsing.

As he twitched as though in spasms, his fangs began to fall out, and the muscles all over his body shriveled. Before long, he lost all his threat and turned back into a human.

"Scarlet Overdrive!"

Still unwilling to believe it, Zeppeli threw a punch at him. Yet the man was completely unharmed. Zeppeli was stunned by the sight. "What? You… you really turned him back into a human?"

"Huh? It actually worked?"

Even Fang Mo was somewhat surprised.

As everyone knew, Zombie Villagers in the MC world could be turned back into Villagers using a Weakness Potion and a Golden Apple. The discount machine operated on that very principle.

The moment Zeppeli mentioned Zombie Humans, Fang Mo immediately realized it.

The setting for vampires in JOJO was actually somewhat different from traditional vampires. Biting someone did not create blood servants or anything like that, but instead created something resembling a Zombie.

And if they were Zombies…

Fang Mo was no longer sleepy.

The facts proved that Fang Mo had been right. These Zombie Humans had almost exactly the same mechanics as Zombies. They could even be restored with Golden Apples. That was absolutely incredible.

Of course, turning ordinary Zombie Humans back into people wasn’t all that interesting.

But according to JOJO’s setting, vampires could awaken undead souls sleeping beneath the earth. For instance, in the original story, Dio Brando used his ability to awaken two medieval knights, forcing Jonathan and Zeppeli into a bitter battle. In the end, Zeppeli even died.

To sum it up.

Fang Mo reached a conclusion.

If someone wanted to resurrect a person in the JOJO world, they only needed to dig up the corpse, find any vampire to turn them into a Zombie Human, and then have Fang Mo throw a Weakness Potion and Golden Apple at them. That person could be perfectly resurrected.

Good grief, my Stand is… Impure World Reincarnation!

"Hahaha!" Fang Mo couldn’t help laughing at the thought. "Didn’t expect that, did you, Dio? The real Horse Hunter is me, Fang Mo!"

"???"

Everyone looked utterly confused as Fang Mo suddenly became excited for no apparent reason.

Speedwagon and Zeppeli exchanged glances. The former couldn’t help asking, "Uh… what’s wrong with him?"

"I don’t know either."

Zeppeli rubbed his temples with a headache. "Maybe he thought of something pleasant? Like how to deal with Dio, perhaps. He’s a mage and I’m a Ripple User, so I have no idea what he’s thinking."

Before anyone could discuss it further, Fang Mo returned to normal.

"Alright, my test is finished."

Fang Mo said cheerfully, "The magic test was a success. Let’s keep moving."

"What about this guy…"

Jonathan pointed at the former Zombie Human on the ground.

"Oh, this guy is Jack the Ripper, the murderer from London. He’s already killed quite a few people." As Fang Mo spoke, he casually flung out a throwing knife.

Guided by gravity, the throwing knife delicately sliced open the man’s abdomen, and in an instant, his insides spilled all over the ground.

"He’s beyond saving."

Fang Mo spoke as though he had done something utterly insignificant. "Let’s go. This is the best punishment for him."

"…Alright."

Everyone hesitated briefly, but this man had been thoroughly evil to begin with. No one said anything, and they continued toward Wind Knight Territory.

In fact, once they passed through the cave from earlier, they would already be within Wind Knight Territory.

This town called Wind Knight Territory was nestled among the mountains, surrounded on three sides by towering peaks and facing a reef-strewn sea on the fourth. In this era, it was a typical isolated place with little access to information. The cave was practically the town’s only entrance and exit.

After passing through the cave, the group soon caught sight of the ancient-looking town.

The town had been built on relatively level ground and was divided into two sections. Most of it consisted of rustic wooden and stone homes, while an ancient medieval castle stood in one corner. It appeared to have been converted into a prison now, used to hold criminals and the like.

After observing for a moment, they immediately concluded that Dio was likely hiding within that castle.

The structure of a medieval castle was extremely sturdy, and its interior was dark and sunless, making it perfectly suited for a creature like a vampire that feared sunlight.

"Something’s wrong…"

After walking for a while, Zeppeli’s brows immediately furrowed.

"The sun hasn’t fully set, yet there isn’t a single person in these fields." Speedwagon gritted his teeth as he spoke. "There’s no smell of blood, but I can already foresee their miserable fate. Just like the thriving wheat in these fields, all those innocent ordinary people have been turned into food by Dio. We… we really arrived too late!"

"Emmm…"

Fang Mo said nothing, but he had also noticed that something was off.

Of course, he wasn’t wary of vampires or anything. Even if the Pillar Men showed up now, they would be no big deal. The problem was the scene before them.

It seemed somewhat different from what had happened in the original story.
