God and Devil World - Chapter 781
Chapter 781: Exhaustion!
Being in the midst of the zombies, Yue Zhong could feel the terror being in the midst of the horde. No matter how many he killed, they just kept coming. There was no end. Furthermore, his Stamina was being depleted. Surrounded by body parts and the stench of rot, it was enough to drive anyone crazy.
However, he was someone who been through countless battles, and he had an iron will. He continued to forge forward, killing the countless zombies.
Under the protection of a group of Devourers, the beautiful Type 5 Ancestor was supported by a handsome but scarred man beside her, while shouting, “We must kill him! We cannot let him live, otherwise, he will be the greatest enemy of our race!”
The handsome man was Gui Can, one of the 3 generals under Hu Man.
Gui Can shot the beautiful Type 5 Ancestor a look, as he frowned and entered contemplation.
After the death of Hu Man, the horde had fallen under the control of Gui Can and Liu Xiong.
However, under the effect of the blue light, the ability of Gui Can and Liu Xiong to control the other zombies was severely incapacitated. Right now, Gui Can could only handle tens of thousands of them. If they used such a number to attack Yue Zhong, only to fail, it would not be helpful to their future contending for the position of King.
As for Jiang Sheng, who was also affected by the blue light, he could only control the zombies to not attack himself, but not anything else.
After gaining intelligence, these evolved zombies also gained hopes and aspiration. Controlling the millions of zombies was Gui Can’s goal.
Compared to that, he had no issue with letting Yue Zhong go. After all, China was vast, at most, Gui Can could avoid Yue Zhong and establish his strength elsewhere.
As they were different, zombies could live anywhere, even if the terrain or circumstances were harsh.
The beautiful Type 5 Ancestor saw Gui Can hesitating and gritted her teeth to tell him a secret, “Gui Can, I’ll let you in on something. Yue Zhong has the God and Devil Imprint on his right arm, and he already has a God-Devil Nucleus in him. This is why he is able to evolve so fast even though he’s a human. Once you consume it, you’ll gain an incredible strength, immediately becoming a Type 6 existence. At that time, the entire world will tremble at your might. You can become a powerful Overlord!!”
Gui Can’s face changed, as his gaze became incredibly sharp, evidently overcome with greed. He stared at her, “What?! Poliyaeva, are you certain? How come you didn’t tell us this before?!”
Poliyaeva sighed, and had a difficult expression, “Yue Zhong only has one of those, even we also want that opportunity to evolve. It’s natural we wouldn’t make it known to you guys.”
As long as she could incite his greed, Poliyaeva was able to relax. Every strong expert harbored thoughts of getting stronger. Once they obtained such an intel, it was hard to resist.
Gui Can’s gaze turned cold, as he stared fixedly at Poliyaeva, “What else have you kept from us?”
She replied, “There’s nothing else. That’s the only secret, the biggest secret. There’s nothing else.”
Gui Can turned solemn, “Fine, I can command some troops to attack him, but, you must help me kill him.”
Poliyaeva had a crafty glint as she tried to bargain, “Fine! However, the price for making me act is his God-Devil Nucleus. The use of the God and Devil Imprint is even larger, you’re not losing out.”
Gui Can’s eyes flashed, but he nodded, “Fine!”
After the both of them had finished negotiating, Gui Can swept a look across the zombies around him and opened his mouth, releasing a sharp, supersonic wave that ordinary humans could not pick up, spreading it out.
The zombies under Gui Can that were familiar with his brainwave signals immediately responded, rushing towards Yue Zhong according to his will.
As he could not control those that did not belong to his army, the dozens of thousands of evolved zombies charged forward with the L5s taking the lead, crushing the fellow zombies in the way, turning many of them into meat paste, while moving towards Yue Zhong’s location.
Within the horde, there were blade flashes everywhere, as zombies were chopped up into minced meat. Yue Zhong continued to forge forward with his blade slashing continuously, advancing without stopping.
All of a sudden, there was a sense of danger that arose in his heart, as he jumped back explosively.
A bout of gray poisonous fog spat over, before landing on the ground.
Yue Zhong swept his gaze around, noticing a number of Devourers that could spit hidden at the back of some other zombies.
The ferocious-looking Devourers opened their jaws and continued to spit out poison at Yue Zhong.
With a flash of his body, he dodged them time and time again, as he routed towards one of them.
At this moment, 18 Hunters jumped out from right behind the Devourer, pouncing towards Yue Zhong.
The Black Tooth Blade in his hands was swung forward in a flash, slaughtering all 18 of them within seconds.
After killing the 18 Hunters, 4 5m-tall L5s stomped over, raising their massive fists and swinging them down at Yue Zhong.
These L5s had terrifying strength, if even Yue Zhong was caught, he would be heavily injured.
With a tap of his foot, Yue Zhong routed around the L5. When he had reached behind, he was met with the onslaught of 8 zombies with huge bellies that suddenly ruptured, causing the corrosive pus to splatter everywhere.
His expression fell, and he had no choice but to twist around, dodging with all his might.
Yue Zhong’s current response speed had surpassed the human limits, however, he was still struck by 3 or 4 of the corrosive liquid. Sizzling sounds could be heard as his clothes were directly dissolved, before being stopped by the Type 5 Mutant Beast hide.
He pulled out his Electromagnetic Cannon and fired rapidly, causing those big-bellied zombies to be blasted apart.
These big-bellied zombies were incredibly dangerous to Yue Zhong with his abilities sealed.
After killing the 7 or 8 of them, 6 nimble S5s with powerful legs dashed out, slashing towards him with its sharp claws.
He slashed out with his blade, directly slicing those 6 S5s in halves.
However, he could not catch his breath, as the Devourers behind had fired out the poisonous fog once more at him, while the L5s were lumbering towards him from all directions as well.
The waves of attacks came one after another, even someone as strong as Yue Zhong could not manage this without feeling exhausted. He had depleted much of his Stamina, and there was no way to advance.
Jiang Sheng slaughtered the ordinary zombies at the side but had no means of assisting Yue Zhong to break out.
In the midst of the fighting, Yue Zhong began to pant and perspire. His breathing became ragged and his eyes were bloodshot. Even his arms were starting tremble slightly, each time he raised his blade to slash out.
Beside him, the pile of zombie corpses had already formed a small hill, releasing a thick stench of rotting flesh.
In the distance, Gui Can watched while hidden within the body of an L5, his heart aching at the sight of the dead subordinates of his.
The number had reached over ten thousand, comprised of mainly Type 3 and above zombies. Gui Can only had about 30,000 of them. This was his base capital, and having lost ⅓ of them to Yue Zhong, it was natural that he felt heartache.
He had a ferocious glint in his eyes as he stared at Yue Zhong, “It’s time, his Stamina is about to run out.”
Under such circumstances where there were enemies everywhere, even if Yue Zhong was half-step into the Type 6 realm, his Stamina would not be able to hold up.
Although he had killed over 10,000 within an hour, continuously slashing his blade at that sort of speed was incredibly taxing.
In the zombie horde, after Yue Zhong had slaughtered another 3 S5s, he suddenly took a step back with a pale face, and due to the fatigue, he suddenly fell.
“It’s time!! He’s mine!!”
There was a ferocious glint in Gui Can’s eyes as he pounced towards Yue Zhong.
Poliyaeva, who had been quietly standing beside Gui Can, shot forwards with even faster speed, by almost 30%.
“Damn it! Am I going to die here?”
Yue Zhong felt like his body was weighed down with lead, making it hard to move. In this situation, it seemed impossible to get out alive.
An S5 dashed forward, appearing in front of Yue Zhong and slashed out with its claws.
“I will not die so easily!!!”
Fury arose in Yue Zhong’s heart, as he twisted his body and allowed the claw of the S5 to strike his shoulder. He then used his fist to slam the S5’s head, causing it to explode.
At the moment of the S5’s death, a stream of life force was absorbed into his body.
The amassed life force throughout the course of his journey was pure and concentrated, and this final strand of life force from the S5 was like a match that ignited the potential within Yue Zhong’s body.
The life force began to surge within him, entering the God-Devil Nucleus in his mind. In return, the God-Devil Nucleus absorbed it and refined it further, spewing out a golden energy that coursed throughout Yue Zhong’s body.
Chapter 782: Metamorphosis, the Type 6 Realm!
Following the flow of the light gold energy, Yue Zhong’s muscles, marrow, bones, every single part were all covered with a light gold sheen. They began to change and metamorphosize, evolving quickly.
The golden energy continued to course out from the God-Devil Nucleus, entering the various runes, allowing the runes to turn even more silver and profound.
“Congratulations, the Body of Steel had evolved into the God-Devil Body, the skill is now First Order God Devil Body.”
“Congratulations, your Devil Flame had evolved into the God-Devil Flames.”
“…”
“Congratulations, you have broken through the mortal realm, evolving towards the direction of a God-Devil.”
After Yue Zhong broke through the Type 6 realm, within his sea of knowledge, there was a flurry of notifications. Every single skill he learned through the system evolved, becoming even stronger.
“Is this the Type 6 realm? I’m no longer a mortal. What a good feeling.”
He took a deep breath, feeling his head clear. He had undergone another heaven and earth change. When he narrowed his eyes, he could see the movements of bacteria in the sky. When he focused on his ears, he could hear the sound of an ordinary zombie’s head being crushed by an L5 a long distance away, at the same time, there was a myriad of noise that he could even distinguish.
With a thought, he could accurately sense the situation all around him, even a distance away. Such a powerful perception was almost omniscience.
If it had been before the apocalypse, just by using his current senses, he could be the master of a sect. In the past, he would be revered like a deity.
“Haha, Yue Zhong, you are mine!!”
At this moment, there was the sound of excited laughter, as Poliyaeva wore an expectant look, arriving in front of Yue Zhong flapping her wings, slashing out at his head.
Behind, Gui Can roared out in rage, “Stop!! He’s my prey!!”
Gui Can had not expected Poliyaeva to be this cunning, and her speed to be this terrifying. His own speed was far inferior.
Poliyaeva’s face was covered with a sadistic smile, as she reached out, “Haha! Gui Can you fool! When I’ve finished taking Yue Zhong’s God and Devil Imprint and his God-Devil Nucleus, I will make you my subordinate! Haha!”
Just then, Yue Zhong lifted his head, reaching out with his own right hand, grabbing at her.
There was a look of shock in her eyes, and she tried to dodge, but there was no way, as she was captured like a little bird.
“I was just thinking of capturing a female Vampire as a pet, you can take that role obediently!”
A cold look flashed past his eyes, and he flung her down viciously, stepping on her head. He then applied a little more pressure and caused her head to sink further into the ground. He then sent a powerful vibration through his legs, causing her to be knocked unconscious before a Type 5 Puppet Rune entered her head.
“What’s going on? What’s happening?”
Gui Can saw how Poliyaeva was taken down easily, and he felt shocked, quickly twisting his body to retreat backward.
“You want to escape?”
Yue Zhong turned to Gui Can, his eyes flashing with a cold look. He then disappeared from his position, and appearing on top of Gui Can in a flash, reaching out to grab him.”
“Explode!!”
After reaching the Type 6 Realm, Yue Zhong’s strength was simply terrifying. Gui Can had only the moment to scream one word before he was captured by him.
When Gui Can’s words fell, the big-bellied zombies behind began to explode, as a rain of corrosive liquid fell towards Yue Zhong.
Yue Zhong swung Gui Can out, blocking in front of him, causing the corrosive liquid to rain upon Gui Can, corroding huge parts of his flesh, turning them black.
The corrosive liquid had 2 effects, one was corrosion, while the other was infecting a person to become a zombie. Even Type 5 experts might not necessarily be able to resist the corrosive liquid.
Yue Zhong then swung him down mercilessly, stepping on him and declaring coldly, “You shall be my dog then!”
Gui Can struggled, roaring, “Wishful thinking!! I will never be your dog!!”
“That’s not up to you to decide!”
With a tremor shooting down Yue Zhong’s leg, the vibration rocked Gui Can’s head, knocking him out. A Puppet Rune also entered his head.
By the time Gui Can woke up, he was on all fours, greeting Yue Zhong, “Dog Gui Can greets Master!”
Yue Zhong shot him a look, “Forget it, stand up. Gather these zombies and escort me out.”
“Yes, master!”
Gui Can stood up, and immediately released another soundwave command.
The remaining 20,000 evolved zombies stopped all attacks towards Yue Zhong, turning to become his guards as they attacked their way out.
Under Gui Can’s command, there were 200 L5s, and they were like bulldozers crushing through the horde. With a single slap, they could turn a huge patch of evolved zombies into meat paste.
The 20,000 elite evolved zombies continued to crush their way out, at every second, there were at least a dozen thousand zombies being killed. The speed was even faster than Yue Zhong’s slaughtering speed.
Under their escort, Yue Zhong came to the corner where the blue light was released.
“What is that?”
In a small valley, there was a huge altar. There were many mysterious runes engraved on it.
At the center of it, there were 9 Mutant Beast Nuclei, as well as a blue mirror placed on the flat surface of the altar.
Right now, the 9 Mutant Beast nuclei were glowing resplendently, as a red energy coursed through the blue mirror, causing it to fire out the blue light beam towards the sky.
Yue Zhong looked at it, and his pupils narrowed, asking Poliyaeva beside him, “What’s this?”
Chapter 783: Controlling the Zombie Horde!
Poliyaeva responded, “This is one of the Treasures of Hope, Sealing Mirror. With 9 Mutant Beast nuclei placed on the altar, it could cause the abilities of experts within the range of 30 li to be sealed, leaving behind only the flesh strength. The time to prepare it is 5 minutes. The higher the quality of the Mutant Beast nuclei, the higher the level of the experts sealed. Type 5 nuclei could seal experts of the Type 6 realm and below. Type 6 nuclei could seal experts of the Type 7 realm and below. The limit is the Type 9 realm.
Yue Zhong looked at the Sealing Mirror and frowned, “A Treasure of Hope? While it seems powerful, to the human race, it’s barely useful.”
The physique of the human race was weaker than the foreign races. By sealing the skills and abilities of the enemy as well as ally forces, in terms of flesh bodies, unless everyone had Yue Zhong’s physique, it was just a bad move to the rest of the humanity.
Yue Zhong asked, “How do I take it down?”
Poliyaeva replied, “Just take it down from the altar.”
Yue Zhong walked up to the altar, and reached out with his hand to retrieve the Sealing Mirror.
The moment the blue Sealing Mirror was retrieved, the light went out from the altar.
“The sealing effects have disappeared.” At the moment the blue radiance went out, Yue Zhong could sense the sealing effects on his abilities disappear, causing his body to feel even more relaxed. With a thought, a light gold flame burned brightly from his hands.
Yue Zhong then kept the 9 Type 5 Mutant Beast nuclei into his Storage Ring.
Type 5 Nuclei were precious resources to Yue Zhong.
Producing Reapers, Puppet Runes, and the energy source for the Storm Battleship all required huge numbers of Type 5 nuclei, if it wasn’t for Yue Zhong raiding the Cloud Region’s treasury, he would not have been able to produce so many Type 5 Puppet Runes without consideration.
Yue Zhong then swept a look towards Jiang Sheng and Gui Can, “Let’s go, time to gather the zombie army.”
Jiang Sheng and Gui Can replied with respect, “Yes! Master!”
The moment they left the valley, Gui Can opened his mouth, sending out his command in all directions.
Jiang Sheng flapped his flesh wings, soaring into the skies, sending out his own signal in all directions.
When the Z-Types within the horde felt the brainwaves from their respective commanders, they could sense the threat from the high-level evolved zombies, and quickly aligned their own brain waves to Jiang Sheng and Gui Can, becoming their subordinates.
Yue Zhong let out the Scarlet Reaper, combining with the Heart of Hope, and soared into the skies once more.
Even after Yue Zhong had stepped into the Type 6 realm, the Scarlet Reaper was incredibly useful to Yue Zhong. After all, he could not single handedly take out a hundred thousand zombies by himself.
Within the zombie horde, there was still one more Type 5 Liu Xiong. Before he took him out, he could not relax.
Even after so many zombies had been slaughtered by Yue Zhong, there were still over 8 million of them. Such a number was enough to wipe out Yue Zhong’s forces in the small county.
Along the way, Yue Zhong continued to keep a lookout, when suddenly, he realized that over at the west side, a million zombies had broken up and split into a hundred different groups, running in different directions.
Yue Zhong saw that and frowned, “Crafty fellow!!”
Yue Zhong released his wings, as countless laser beams rained upon the fleeing zombie horde.
Amidst the rain of laser, countless zombies fell down dead.
In a short 5 minutes, over 400,000 low-level zombies were obliterated.
The Scarlet Reaper then kept its wings, and the rain of laser beams stopped.
Yue Zhong swept the 70 hordes with a look of pity and did not chase. He had to reserve some strength in the Scarlet Reaper to deal with something unexpected. Furthermore, finding a Type 5 evolved zombie within the horde of 700,000 was incredibly difficult.
As long as Liu Xiong did not issue any orders within the horde, even Gui Can and Jiang Sheng could not discover his presence.
Liu Xiong fled pathetically, while the remaining 7 million zombies were quickly controlled by Jiang Sheng and Gui Can.
Once they were brought under control, Yue Zhong got Jiang Sheng and Gui Can to command them to attack Hebei.
This time, his intention was to wipe out as many obstructions as he could so that it would be easier for future battles.
After all, even he did not have the confidence of success. He might have become a Type 6 expert, but he was only at the initial realm. Who knew how many Type 6 freaks were still alive in the 2nd World. He did not have any confidence of dealing with them.
Furthermore, there was still the Type 7 Emperor Ba Long in the 3rd World. Once they descended upon Earth, it would be the nightmare of the human race.
Having reached the Type 6 realm, Yue Zhong was even clearer about the terror of high-level experts.
Had there not been the Xue Luo Forts, the Storm Battleship, or even the high-tech defenses of the Capital in the 3rd World, the human race could not possibly hope to defend against a Type 7 expert.
If Emperor Ba Long was to descend upon Earth now, with his strength alone, he could wipe out all resistance whatsoever, and launch a massacre. Nuclear weapons might only possibly threaten it.
At Hebei, where mountains covered 3 of its sides, and it was even surrounded by a river, the city wall had reached 9m. A 30-year-old man, Shangguan Qing Cheng was staring out at the horde of zombies currently clashing with his soldiers.
Shangguan Qing Cheng had been an ordinary white-collared worker, going to the gym often, gathering with his friends once in a while, leading a carefree life.
After the world changed, he had taken a private bus to leave the city, experiencing countless betrayal and fighting, coming to close shaves with death. He had finally awakened his ability to control air, and with this ability, he had started to clear villages of zombies, gathering survivors. He fought hard and continuously, finally establishing a survivor base of 8,000 people.
Inside this base, 7,000 of them were soldiers. In this cruel world, even women and children had to learn how to fight, otherwise , their outcome would be death.
Before the world ended, Africa and Afghanistan were in chaos, and had many child soldiers. It was the product of chaos. After the world ended, only the Kingdom of God, Yue Zhong’s establishments and any other powerful factions which had resources and abilities could allow their children to continue studying.
Even within Yue Zhong’s faction, some of the children had accepted some form of military training. After all, they did not know when they might be sent to the battlefield.
One particular man came up to Shangguan Qing Cheng, covered in blood, as he spoke with grief, “Boss Qing Cheng!! The brothers can’t hold on much longer!! So many brothers have died!! Deploy the Tiger Panther Riders, please!! Otherwise, we will all die soon!”
Hearing those words, the 80 evolvers beside Shangguan Qing Cheng turned to look at him.
This 80 Evolvers consisting of men and women were the trump cards of Shangguan Qing Cheng, the Tiger Panther Riders. Each of them were survivors unearthed by him, following him through countless battles, and their levels exceeding 60.
Furthermore, everyone of them was loyal to Shangguan Qing Cheng, because he was the only Type 4 expert among their base, and his might terrifying. Only he could take down those high defense L3s and L4s. The rest of them could not do anything to those freaks.
Shangguan Qing Cheng glanced out the wall, looking at those soldiers fighting for their lives, as well as the endless horde beyond the walls. He stood up, and spoke solemnly, “Come with me!”
After that, all 80 Evolvers followed Shangguan Qing Cheng to the battlefield.
Fireballs, wind blades, ground spikes, ice shards, Mutant Plants, Summon Tamed Beasts, all sorts of abilities were cast, causing a large number of zombies to be torn apart.
On the battlefield, a large Mutant Plant coiled around a 4m-tall L4, trying to pierce it with its sharp tendrils, but to no avail.
A number of fireballs and ice shards exploded on the body of the L4, but they could not penetrate the scales of the L4.
As the L4 swung its fists, the huge mutant plant was ripped apart. It then braved the bullets and charged towards the city wall.
All of a sudden, a large air blade sliced out without warning, decapitating the L4, causing blood to splatter everywhere. The headless corpse of the L4 slumped to the ground.
There were sounds of celebration from the city wall.
However, it did not last very long, as they caught sight of another 30 L4s, as well as 3 L5s heading towards the wall. Behind those elite evolved zombies, there were still many other L3s and other Type 3 zombies.
The assault of the horde had just truly begun.
Chapter 784: Shangguan Qing Cheng!
Shangguan Qing Cheng looked at the approaching horde, their numbers dense and unending, and his face turned pale, “Finished, we’re doomed this time. Am I finally going to die here?”
He could congeal air blades to decapitate L4s easily, however, his limit was about 20 per day.
If it were in the past, there would be at most a single L3 within a village, while a county with over a hundred thousand people would have a few L4s.
And yet, there were suddenly 10 L4s, 3 L5s as well as numerous other zombies. Their numbers and makeup far surpassed what the survivor base was capable of handling.
On the city wall, all the survivors had looks of despair. They were carrying melee weapons, against the evolved zombies, it was incredibly strenuous to fight. There was definitely only death that awaited them from the incoming horde.
All of a sudden, the zombies surrounding the county turned and joined the incoming horde.
Shangguan Qing Cheng’s heart sank even further, “Shit, there’s a Z-Type. Seems like its level is pretty high, it could even control over a million zombies!”
When Shangguan Qing Cheng was fighting his share of zombies, he had naturally come across the Z-Types. Against such hordes being controlled by the intelligent evolved zombies, he had to run a few times. After all, people like them with no backing were not a match for such numbers.
One young evolver by the name of Wei Qing, who had blonde hair, walked up to Shangguan Qing Cheng and muttered softly, “Boss, seems like things are bad. Let’s make preparations for our escape.”
A dark look came over Shangguan Qing Cheng’s eyes as he responded lowly as well, “Go and prepare.”
When faced with hordes of this magnitude, Shangguan Qing Cheng and his men had fled a few times. He had originally assumed that once he controlled a county, he would not have to flee anymore. However, when he came across such a number again, he found out how naive he was.
Right at this time, the zombie suddenly split apart, and a Jeep came out from within, coming to a stop in front of everybody.
3 warriors in military wear came out from the jeep, walking towards the county.
From the endless horde, 3 humans actually stepped out. Such a scene was enough to stun everyone present. They stared wide-eyed as the 3 walked towards the county.
Bai Xiao Sheng stood straight and hollered, “I’m Major General Bai Xiao Sheng from the China Central Army. Get your leader to come out.”
After coming back to Earth, Yue Zhong had been fighting and consolidating his factions, establishing the new Chinese government, and all his armies were now grouped under the same moniker.
Shangguan Qing Cheng eyed Bai Xiao Sheng, and asked, “I’m the leader here, Shangguan Qing Cheng. China Central Army? I have not heard of you guys before. Are you guys from the capital? I remember that it was Yue Zhong’s faction there.”
After Yue Zhong had conquered the capital, he had made use of the broadcast stations to send out a message to all corners of the country.
Since then, many factions with radio capabilities knew that Yue Zhong had conquered the capital. However, they did not know that he had just established a new government.
Bai Xiao Sheng chuckled, “That’s right. Our leader Yue Zhong had established a new government. Open your gates and join us, you will be one of us.”
Shangguan Qing Cheng laughed lightly, “Are you asking us to submit?”
Bai Xiao Sheng’s tone turned icy all of a sudden, “That’s right! It is an order to submit. Can you see these zombies? They are all under Leader’s control right now. Do you know what that means? If you want to resist, I will wipe you out on account of treason.”
Intimidation, enticement and threats, Bai Xiao Sheng was well-versed in the usage of all of them.
After taking over the capital, the new government had started to clear the various zombies and reach out to the various factions around. They had come across various small-time leaders of their own factions. Each of them had grown giddy with their own authority, and it was difficult to get them to submit straight away.
With that, Bai Xiao Sheng waved his hands.
A soldier stepped out with a flute and blew on it.
As the notes blew from the flue, 20 L3s stepped out from the zombie horde and kneeled in front of Bai Xiao Sheng’s party of 3, stretching out their heads.
Bai Xiao Sheng then took out an Electromagnetic Cannon and fired it at one of them.
With a flash of a bright beam, the L3’s head was pierced, revealing a large gaping hole, as brain matter and blood flowed out.
Bai Xiao Sheng continued to demonstrate by killing the rest of the L3s, before turning his cold gaze towards the county wall.
“How is that possible?!”
“Those were L3s!! Their defenses are impenetrable! Even heavy machine guns can’t do shit to them, when did it become so easy to kill them?”
“What weapon is he carrying? Isn’t it too overpowered?”
“…”
On top of the county, when everyone saw this, their faces fell, and discussion began to broke out.
After the 20 L3s were killed, the flute sounded again, This time, 40 S4s walked out, getting down on the ground.
The 2 soldiers beside Bai Xiao Sheng pulled out sharp Level 3 system weapons, killing those 40 S4s, making use of the system weapons to absorb the life force of the S4s and became stronger.
Witnessing, Shangguan Qing Cheng had a huge change in expression, he knew that Bai Xiao Sheng and the rest were demonstrating what the Central Army was capable of.
Furthermore, the fact that they could command such evolved zombies meant that the Central Army could groom countless experts.
Seeing this, everybody on the county wall had nothing more to say. They knew that if they did not submit, there was only death.
After a moment of silence, Shangguan Qing Cheng asked, “If we submit, what kind of treatment will we be given?”
Bai Xiao Sheng replied, “How many people do you have?”
Shangguan Qing Cheng said, “Slightly over 8,000.”
Bai Xiao Sheng quickly spoke, “After you submit, you will get to keep all private possessions. We can guarantee the safety of your people. Other than those who had committed unforgivable acts, we will not kill anyone. As the leader, if you were to join us, you will automatically be promoted to the rank of captain, and enjoy the relevant treatment. Other than, you can put forward the names of 3 others to enjoy the benefits of the lieutenant rank. 20 others can get to enjoy benefits of the 2nd-lieutenant rank. No bargaining.”
Shangguan heaved a sigh of relief and made his decision, “Fine, I agree. I will join the new government.”
Having been through so many years of moving from place to place, hoping against hope, such days had exhausted Shangguan Qing Cheng. Although he had his authority, controlling the lives and deaths of 8,000, when faced with a zombie horde, he could only flee. He was already sick of such a lifestyle. If he could choose, he would rather be a small-time leader of the days prior to the apocalypse, than an overlord of the current times.
When he announced their submission, the county immediately opened their gates to welcome Bai Xiao Sheng and his 2 subordinates.
Right after they entered the county, a vehicle fleet came driving out from the horde, entering the county as well.
From the vehicle fleet, a number of soldiers jumped out, armed to the teeth. They were exuding a terrifying aura, as they swiftly occupied the various important points in the county.
Shangguan Qing Cheng took a glance at the soldiers, and his eyes went wide, “They’re all experts, what the hell?!”
These hundreds of soldiers were all at least at the peak of the Type 2 realm, at the same time, a number of them were already at the Type 3 realm.
If Shangguan Qing Cheng did not make a move, these hundred soldiers could easily wipe out his Tiger Panther Riders.
After deploying the troops to control the entire county, Bai Xiao Sheng then spoke to Shangguan Qing Cheng, “Come with me, we’re going to meet the leader.”
Shangguan Qing Cheng nodded, “Ok.”
Sitting in a jeep, Shangguan Qing Cheng left the county.
As they traveled through the zombie horde, Shangguan Qing Cheng looked at the surrounding zombies and felt his scalp go numb. Of the various evolved zombies, he recognized a few and not the rest. However, there was one thing clear; no matter how strong he was, he would still die when faced with this horde.
As they went deeper into the horde, Shangguan Qing Cheng saw 2,000 soldiers wielding Tang Replica Swords and killing zombies.
The various high-level evolved zombies were presenting themselves and their heads, allowing the soldiers to kill them.
Those fresh corpses were then loaded onto a number of trucks.
They were good nourishment for Mutant Beasts as well as fertilizers for Mutant Plants. Furthermore, they were good research materials.
Yue Zhong had such ample food resources because he had obtained the Rice Tree, a Mutant Plant when he was in Guang Xi. With the zombie corpses as fertilizers, those Rice Trees had grown abundantly, allowing for his faction to cultivate a huge amount of rice.
Shangguan Qing Cheng watched the soldiers slaughtering the evolved zombies easily, and a hint of envy flashed past his eyes, “No wonder they could produce so many experts. With such a huge horde at their disposal, it’s so easy to create powerful experts!”
Shangguan Qing Cheng had been through his fair share of life-and-death situations, killing high-level zombies and Mutant Beasts with great difficulty, evolving to where he was today. Noting the difference in their circumstances, he felt a little unsettled.
After passing through various guard posts, he finally came to a command center. The moment he entered, he saw numerous electronic displays, and on them, images of the entire region were being shown.
Chapter 785: Strange Treasure!
Shangguan Qing Cheng took a look at the information displayed on the screens, and sighed in his heart, “Truly, a big organization is different.”
It was because of their edge in technology and equipment that the Central Army was able to grasp the situation around them, crushing all obstacles and conquering numerous counties.
His gaze then retracted from the monitors, landing on a young man in military uniform, whose arms were around a young woman in white dress.
Bai Xiao Sheng then introduced him, “This is our leader Yue Zhong.”
Shangguan Qing Cheng came up to greet him, “How do you do, Leader Yue Zhong, I’m Shangguan Qing Cheng. It’s an honor.”
Yue Zhong replied, “How do you do, take a seat.”
“Yes!”
Shangguan Qing Cheng then sat opposite Yue Zhong, his gaze falling upon the pretty young woman, his heart shocked, “What a beautiful woman, she’s like those photoshopped models! How could there be such a beauty on this world? This fellow truly has the fortune.”
The young woman in Yue Zhong’s arms was precisely Yin Shuang. Her features were extraordinary, and as she matured, she was even more stunning. Ever since Yue Zhong came back, this little demoness was unwilling to leave his side for more than a second.
Yue Zhong asked him in a relaxed manner, “I heard you know the location of a strange treasure, is that true?”
After gaining control over the millions of zombies under Hu Man, Yue Zhong had sent the forces towards Hebei, in an overwhelming display of force. Any zombie horde they came across was gathered under the control of Jiang Sheng and Gui Can. They were then used as training materials for the soldiers under Yue Zhong.
Currently, Yue Zhong’s forces were continually gaining strength with the help of the system equipment, and the constant replenishment of zombies.
In these few days, of the elite soldiers in the Central Army, even the most ordinary soldier was at least Level 50. Compared to everywhere else, they could be considered peak experts.
Equipped with laser guns, these 40,000-strong Central Army could even kill a Type 5 evolver under the right circumstances and tactics. Be it individual prowess or joint efforts, the Central Army was truly a formidable force.
With the combined forces of the Central Army and the zombie horde, Hebei was swiftly conquered by Yue Zhong. More than a 100 small factions like Shangguan Qing Cheng’s also submitted to him, thus, his power and population grew once more.
There was a complicated look in Shangguan Qing Cheng’s eyes, “That’s right, Leader. I’ve discovered a lake in the Qingxia Forest. Every night, there would be a bright radiance glowing from the lake. It would attract countless Mutant Beasts over, and they would try to swallow the rays of light emitted by the lake. I’m guessing that there’s a strange treasure inside.”
Yue Zhong revealed a serious expression, “Oh! What is the strongest Mutant Beast that has been to the lake?”
After the world changed, there were many strange things in this world. On this earth, there might even be a new treasure that formed. However, as Shangguan Qing Cheng was only a Type 4 expert, he did not dare approach to investigate. Obviously, the Mutant Beasts there were not to be underestimated.
Shangguan Qing Cheng replied solemnly, “There are many Mutant Beasts guarding there. One time, I saw 5 Type 5 Mutant Beasts consuming the moonbeams reflecting from the lake. Fortunately, I managed to flee in time, and only observed them from afar. Otherwise, I would have been dead. The Type 5 Mutant Beasts are not large ones though. Their physiques are almost the same as us humans. However, they are slightly bigger, about 2m-tall, and have beast-like features. They’re truly terrifying.”
Yue Zhong frowned when he heard that, “Humanoid Type 5 Mutant Beasts? Seems like it’s going to be an issue.”
In terms of crushing enemies, leveling the battlefield, and intimidating the enemy, Mount Tai was perfect for the job. However, it had a huge shortcoming, that was its speed, which was slow, and its intelligence was on the lower side as well.
Whereas humanoid Type 5 Mutant Beasts might not have the strength of such behemoths, their growth was more balanced and all-rounded, surpassing even most ordinary Type 5 experts. Even the Dino-Warriors might not necessarily be a match for a humanoid Type 5 Mutant Beast.
Yue Zhong thought silently, “Jiang Sheng and Gui Can had been sent out to conquer the rest of Hebei, while Poliyaeva has to remain here to exert fear on the horde. Bai Xiao Sheng and the rest are not a match for a Type 5 Mutant Beast as well. Seems like there’s only me.”
It was a critical juncture of reclaiming Hebei. Under the lead of Jiang Sheng and Gui Can, the Central Army was quickly recovering many cities. Yue Zhong did not want to deploy them to take care of those Mutant Beasts.
Against the other zombie hordes, Jiang Sheng and Gui Can was even more important than Yue Zhong himself.
Within Qingxia Forest, there were many trees over a few hundred meters tall. Growing densely together, they provided lush cover and allowed many Mutant Plants to thrive. There were some even capable of swallowing humans whole due to their large sizes.
Inside this forest, there were many behemoth-Mutant Beasts, thus, many human experts would carry out hunting expeditions here, in order to increase their strength.
“It’s that lake!”
On a huge tree, Shangguan Qing Cheng pointed to a vast water body, with pristine clear water that had a light jade-like tinge to it, and told Yue Zhong.
Right now, on the tree, there was only Yue Zhong and Shangguan Qing Cheng. Yue Zhong had been reluctant to bring too many to this Qingxia Forest. This was because that unless one was a decent expert, against Type 5 Mutant Beasts, they would only be sacrificing their lives needlessly.
Yue Zhong observed the lake, noting many types of Mutant Beasts lurking all around.
Many were quietly laying on the ground, idling away, not engaging in any fights or slaughter among each other.
Yue Zhong had done his research towards Mutant Beasts and knew that they would fight and consume one another for the sake of evolution and survival.
Only when there was a King or Overlord of a particular species, or under the pressure of a tyrannical high-level Mutant Beast, would there be a gathering of Mutant Beasts.
Even during fights of different species, some were unable to suppress their own bestial instincts, acting out against other foreign races. Therefore, such a scene where beasts of different types were laying around without attacking one another was strange.
Yue Zhong observed carefully before asking, “Where’s the light?”
Shangguan Qing Cheng replied, “It’s only during the night.”
“Guess we’ll have to wait.”
Night fell.
Following the darkening of the skies, many more Mutant Beasts began to walk out from various parts of the forest.
There were Mutant Giant Cockroaches, Mutant Apes, Mutant Two-headed Dogs, Mutant Leopard Cats, and other ferocious Mutant Beasts rushing over.
“Ah! What’s that?”
All of a sudden, there was a shrill roar. Yue Zhong turned towards the direction of the commotion, only to see a white-scaled Type 5 White-Scaled Panther darting through the forests like a phantom, pouncing on the various Mutant Leopard Cats, tearing through their throats, and devouring them.
The Type 5 White-Scaled Panther was extremely fast, as the other Mutant Beasts appeared before they could react, their throats were already torn through. Blood splattered everywhere, as the beasts died pitifully.
At another corner, there were a 2m-tall Type 5 Ape-man covered in a layer of black scales, looking 50% similar to humans. It was throwing multiple punches at the various Mutant Beasts that arrived.
Although this Type 5 Mutant Ape-man was only 2m-tall, it had a terrifying strength. Each punch was enough to cause a Type 3 Mutant Beast to explode.
Over at another side, there was a 1.56m-tall lithe figure with a cat-head. Her body was voluptuous, covered in a layer of green scales, while her claws were 80cm long. This Type 5 Mutant Green Cat was flashing about the forest.
One by one, the Mutant Beasts that got close had holes appearing in their heads, their nuclei dug out, as their lifeless bodies crumpled to the floor, with them none the wiser at the point of death.
Finally, there was another Type 5 Black Lizard, covered in a layer of black scales, and looking humanoid. It continued to strike out with its tongue, penetrating the heads of the incoming Mutant Beasts as easily as cannon shots. It would coil its tongue around their nuclei and brain juices, gobbling them up.
The 4 Mutant Beasts continued in their areas, reaping the lives of the various Mutant Beasts.
The Mutant Beasts inside Qingxia Forest continued to fight to reach the lake.
A few Mutant Beasts managed to get past the 4 tyrannical Type 5 Mutant Beasts, reaching within 500m of the lake. The 4 Type 5 Mutant Beasts then stopped their rampage and went back to their respective locations.
The 4 Type 5 Mutant Beasts had swallowed over 300 nuclei by the time they stopped their slaughter.
Those who had not dared to get close due to the rampage of the 4 Type 5 Mutant Beasts started to inch closer and consume the flesh and blood of the fallen beasts.
Chapter 786: Traces of the U.S. Army!
At the same time, in order to fight for the blood of those Mutant Beasts, many of these low-level Mutant Beasts began to engage in slaughter, as the roars and screams of agony and misery rang out through the forest.
By the time darkness enveloped the Earth, all of a sudden, there was a bright beam that shot out from the lake.
The moment the beam appeared, the Mutant Beasts by the lake fought to open their mouths and absorb as much light as possible.
Among them, the 4 Type 5 Mutant Beasts took in the most light. When the light entered their bodies, their aura seemed to strengthen as well.
“There’s indeed a treasure!”
After evolving to the Type 6 realm, Yue Zhong could see clearly, that there was a peculiar silver spring within the depths of the lake. It was from this lake that the beam of light was emitting from.
“Ah, there’s a helicopter!”
Suddenly, his brows furrowed, and he heard sounds of communication between humans. As he focused, he could tell that the sounds were a few kilometers away.
A few kilometers away, on the flat ground atop a small hill, there were 12 AH-64 Boeing Apaches and 12 carriers.
6 men and 2 women stepped out, wearing black combat uniforms, emitting a dangerous pressure, observing the pillar of light.
A total of 300 equipped American soldiers got out from the carriers, and some equipment was being transported out as well, being put together to form a large construct.
One short, blond hair burly soldier gazed at the silver beam and sighed, “It’s amazing. That beam of light is so beautiful. We can even see it from the satellites. Why would such a thing exist here, instead of our American land?”
One of the ladies, a beautiful blond with her long hair in a ponytail, spoke coldly, “Jos, every country would have some natural-forming treasures after the apocalypse. Didn’t America already produce the Basmult Gem? Quickly take care of those Mutant Beasts and retrieve the treasure. According to the intelligence reports, the new government of China is about to recover the whole of Hebei. Once they discover this phenomenon here, they will send their forces to take out the Mutant Beasts and keep the treasure.
Jos turned around to look at the beauty, and chuckled, “The Chinese government? The faction under that person called Yue Zhong? I’m a peak Type 4 Divine Warrior, if Yue Zhong were to send his forces here, I will just wipe them out. Let them see the might of our Superhuman Alliance. Rosie, after this mission, let’s fuck.”
The westerners were usually more open and uttered profanities without much care. However, it was effective, as when a man and woman took a liking to each other, a one-night stand was likely to occur, as compared to the long courtship of the eastern world.
Rosie’s face turned cold, and she pointed a middle finger, “Go fuck your own mother, fool!”
“Haha, Jos, she called you an idiot.” A black man in sunglasses spoke up. He was wiping his weapon, a heavy cannon of sorts with a 300mm barrel, equipped with a collimator, and a Type 5 Mutant Beast nucleus inserted in the middle of it. He laughed out brazenly before continuing, “Rosie, Jos can’t satisfy you. Let me do it, I guarantee that you will not be able to get out of bed for 3 days.”
Ross’s eyes turned even more icy, as she pointed her own cannon at his groin, “Sure, Caiman, if you don’t mind me blasting your sorry excuse for a meat into pieces, just come at me.”
Caiman raised his hands apologetically, as though in surrender, “Haha, I’ll pass.”
Just then, a bulky warrior with a bald head and rippling muscles stepped forward. His face was covered in a thick beard, his expression stern, and his gaze sharp. “Quit your nonsense, time for the mission.”
“Yes! Boss (Captain Cleo)!”
The moment Cleo spoke, the rest of the team immediately turned serious and began equipping their technology.
Soon, 6 cannons with 300mm barrels, inserted with Type 5 Mutant Beast nuclei and had countless mysterious runes engraved all over them were fully assembled. The black barrels were then aimed at the Mutant Beasts below them.
The rest of the American troops also swarmed out like ants, carrying all sorts of heavy equipment, building a simple but terrifying cannon.
As they were adjusting the aim of the 6 cannons, one bald man who had his eyes closed, muttered out a strange incantation under his breath. A thin, black light radiated out, enveloping everyone present and masked all their killing intents and auras.
3 men and 1 woman quickly got on the ground, adjusting their breaths, and aimed.
At that instant, 4 beams shot out from the hill, aiming for the 4 Type 5 Mutant Beasts respectively.
Due to their killing intent being masked, both by their own suppression as well as their comrade’s spell, it was only at the moment when the beams were shot out that the 4 Type 5 Mutant Beasts felt the killing intent.
The 4 beasts had killed countless Mutant Beasts and felt numerous killing intents, fear, respect, thus, their reaction to this killing intent from the humans was slightly slow.
Only the Type 5 Mutant Green Cat was able to make it in time, dodging to one side.
The 4 beams fell, and 3 beams slammed into the beasts.
One of them penetrated the head of the Type 5 Black Ape-man, directly blasting its brain apart. A Type 5 Nucleus flew out from its brain.
Another beam slammed into the waist of the White-Scaled Panther, shattering its spine, almost cutting it in half. Its entire body was dyed red with blood.
The 3rd beam punched through the chest of the Type 5 Lizardman, destroying it, as blood splattered and bone fragments flew.
In an instant, the 4 most feared Mutant Beasts were taken out, 1 dead and 2 heavily injured.
Humans might be the weakest race in this apocalyptic world, losing out to other existences of the same rank. However, with the appropriate equipment, weapons, as well as their intelligence, it was possible for them to take on higher-ranked enemies.
At that instant, the Type 5 Mutant Green Cat that had evaded quickly slashed through the heads of the 2 heavily injured comrades, digging out their nuclei and swallowing them. It then turned towards Cleo and the rest, its eyes filled with a cold killing intent.
Jos cursed out excitedly, as he pulled his trigger, “Go to hell! Beast!”
A number of beams that could blast a Type 5 Mutant Beast into oblivion fired out towards the Type 5 Mutant Green Cat.
At that moment, 4 beams slammed into the body of the Mutant Green Cat, piercing through its body, and causing a few holes in the ground behind it.
Cleo saw that none of the beams hit and passed his order immediately, “Not good, that was an afterimage! The mission has failed, abandon all equipment and retreat now!”
Wesmer, the commander of the Seals Special Forces, frowned and replied, “Colonel Cleo, we’ve already established the defense post. It’s just an attack by a single Mutant Beast, we should be able to take it down!”
Within their defense, coupled with the automatic weapons and 300 soldiers, Wesmer had the confidence of beating the enemy. Cleo had just called for a retreat without even trying to fight, this would cause their troop to abandon an entire battalion’s worth of ammunition. He could not agree to the decision.
Cleo barked out coldly, “Major Wesmer, that is a Type 5 Mutant Beast! It alone can kill all of us here! I will not watch all our guys die at the hands of a beast without a reason!! Order the retreat now! Major!”
After that, he did not even care for Wesmer’s response, and he led his subordinates into one of the carriers.
Cleo was the strongest Evolver within the Superhuman Alliance, and he knew the terrors of a Type 5 Mutant Beast. Even if they all attacked together, there was only death.
When they all boarded, Cleo immediately barked at the pilot, “Fly now!”
“Ok! Boss!!”
The pilot was also a member of the Superhuman Alliance. He quickly piloted the aircraft and pulled up into the air.
Wesmer saw that Cleo had actually fled and frowned. He started to reconsider the severity of the situation, and decided to give the order, “Convey my order, get everyone to retreat.”
The signal officer beside him immediately replied, “Understood!”
However, just as he spoke, his head disappeared mysteriously, as blood shot up and splattered over Wesmer’s face.
Chapter 787: Selena from India!
Feeling the warmth of the blood from his vice-commander, Wesmer felt his body turn cold. He was a Level 40 Enhancer, however, he did not manage to see how his comrade had died. This meant that the enemy could take him out in the same manner.
At the next instant, Wesmer’s head also disappeared mysteriously, as blood spurt upwards like a fountain.
Within moments, throughout the American temporary base, the soldiers began to lose their heads, as warm blood splattered everywhere. The headless corpses then slumped to the ground.
“Ah!!”
Seeing such a horrific scene, the American soldiers began to take up their arms and fired aimlessly into their surroundings.
The bullets fired everywhere, to no avail, as the heads of the soldiers continued to be swallowed up.
The entire defense point had turned to a slaughterhouse.
In just a short time, the American troops crumbled and were trying to flee towards the helicopters.
Under the pressure of the slaughter, one of the carriers did not even wait for their comrades and flew off.
Such an act of abandoning their comrades aroused the curses and ire of the soldiers below.
However, the helicopter had just taken off, when the rotors were suddenly twisted off by an unseen force, and the entire aircraft veered to the side.
After it lost control, it descended to the ground.
At the same time, the rest of the Apaches and heavy carriers that had not yet flown, all had their blades twisted off mysteriously.
Seeing such a scene, the rest of the American troops fell into despair, trying their best to flee elsewhere.
As they moved, death seemed to fall upon them, as their heads disappeared one by one, fresh blood continued to flow.
“What a terrifying Type 5 Mutant Beast!!”
Cleo and the rest of the soldiers from the Superhuman Alliance watched with pale expressions as they witnessed the elites of the American troops being wiped out.
If it were a frontal clash, Cleo and his men would have been wiped out in a few breaths.
Against pure strength, they were no different from ordinary humans.
“Chance!!”
Yue Zhong saw that 3 of the Mutant Beasts had died, and his eyes flashed with a glint. He shot forwards towards the lake.
At the same time, from the forest, 6 men wearing all black shot out, making their way for the lake as well.
Yue Zhong’s gaze swept across them and frowned, “Who are they?! They actually managed to conceal themselves for so long, evidently, they’ve been here earlier than me.”
After Yue Zhong had stepped into the Type 6 realm, everything within a certain radius could not escape his perception.
Had these men arrived after Yue Zhong, he would definitely sense them. It was apparent that they had reached before him, and made use of some ability to evade his perception.
After entering the Type 6 realm, Yue Zhong’s speed was incredibly fast. Although the 6 were ahead of him, in a breath, he had pulled the distance closer.
The leader spoke in Hindi, which Yue Zhong could not understand, “Kill him!”
5 of them immediately turned around and attacked Yue Zhong jointly.
One of them had a silver, 6-round cannon handgun, as he quickly activated his Enhanced Bullet skill while aiming at Yue Zhong. The round fired could blast through a tank.
Another waved his hand, causing countless transparent spider silk to weave into a huge web that shot towards Yue Zhong.
One of them had a narrowed gaze, his eyes turned bloodshot. 2 beams that could cause illusions fell upon Yue Zhong.
A gravity-manipulator waved his hands, causing the gravitational pressure to weigh down on Yue Zhong, increasing it by 30 times.
The last one waved his hands and shot out countless poison needles towards him.
These 5 were all at the Type 3 realm. When they joined hands, even Type 4 experts might fall under their attacks.
“Seeking death!”
A cold light flashed in Yue Zhong’s eyes, as he disappeared from his location, causing the attacks to hit nothing.
“He’s gone? What’s going on? Teleportation?”
The 5 black-clothed men were all shocked.
5 Yue Zhong clones suddenly appeared in front of the 5 black-clothed men, and threw out a palm each, before disappearing.
The next moment, the chest area of those 5 burst apart, as bones, blood, and meat splattered out. They lost their lives and crumpled to the ground.
“Strong!! How come there is such a powerful person here?”
The leader of the 6-man troop saw Yue Zhong slaughtering the 5 others, and felt shocked.
As the leader went blank, Yue Zhong had already appeared in front of her, grabbing her head.
This leader was also a Type 4 expert, but against Yue Zhong, there was nothing that she could do. She quickly shouted shrilly in English, “Stop, Yue Zhong, I’m a woman!!”
Before she could finish her words, Yue Zhong’s hands had already grabbed her head. As long as he exerted a little more force, her head would be crushed.
Yue Zhong relaxed his grip slightly, as he spoke coldly, “An enemy is an enemy, even if you’re a woman. I won’t be merciful. There are many women that had died at my hands. Speak. Who are you and why do you know my name?”
In the Type 4 realm, Yue Zhong could easily slap her to death, this was why he decided to get to the bottom of things before killing her.
The leader took off her mask, revealing a beautiful face that was the color of wheat. Her hair was black and lush, her eyes limpid as she looked at Yue Zhong with a hint of a smile. She reached out with her hand, “I’m Selena, the daughter of Tai Xin, leader of the India Rebel Forces. I’m honored to meet you. I just guessed your identity. Of the experts within Hebei’s region, to be able to kill my subordinates with such ease, there could only be you.”
There was no rage or fear on her face, as though the deaths of her 5 subordinates meant nothing to her. With her attractive smile and voluptuous body, her entire person exuded a strong charm.
Yue Zhong shook her hand and continued coldly, “India, isn’t it a base under the Kingdom of God? I hope that you’re not lying to me. I have many ways of ascertaining the truth.”
As long as he used the Puppet Rune, he could obtain all the information he wanted from a person. Of course, it meant that the original person would die, becoming a slave of Yue Zhong for eternity.
Selena’s face turned serious as she replied, “No! India is not the base of the Kingdom of God. Those damn Germans are invaders. Us Indians have never given up on resisting them. One day, we will definitely chase them out, regaining our independence. It is precisely because of overthrowing their rule that I’ve come to China, finding someone to resist them, namely you. Yue Zhong, please assist our India Rebel Forces, and abolish the damned Kingdom of God rule.”
Yue Zhong looked at Selena and thought quietly, “Seems like the Kingdom of God has not conquered India fully. This is something I can use.”
The Kingdom of God has numerous pawns in China, many of which already within Yue Zhong’s new government. He had his share of a headache because of this and wanted to give the Kingdom of God a ‘present’ in return. However, both sides were too far apart. He did not wish to openly slaughter them in the face of the imminent invasion by the foreign races from the 2nd and 3rd Worlds.
Furthermore, they had a nuclear weapon as well. If both sides fell out, and a nuclear war happened, both sides would just suffer. There were no benefits to it. However, exchanging a few blows between each other was definitely not a problem.
Yue Zhong remained impassive as he replied, “Since you’re an envoy from India, why didn’t you look for me? Instead, you came here.”
There was a hint of mischief in her reply, “I heard there was a treasure here, so I came over to take a look.”
Yue Zhong glanced at her in disdain, “Fine. Stay here and observe.”
Selena responded docilely, “Yes!”
Yue Zhong swept the lake a glance, noting that the Mutant Beasts all around were trying to gobble the moonbeams. With a tap of his foot, he instantly disappeared from his location, appearing right in the center of the lake.
Selena stared agape, “Fast!! Even Feroz’s speed cannot compare! He truly is the top expert of China.”
Feroz was the genius expert of the India Rebel Forces. However, compared with the Type 6 Yue Zhong, he was just an ant.
Chapter 788: The Tyrannical God-Devil Body!
In a breath, Yue Zhong penetrated through the surface of the lake.
After reaching the Type 6 realm, and undergoing a heaven-shaking change, he was no longer a mere mortal. He could even breathe freely in the water. With each breath he took, the oxygen in the water would be absorbed into his bloodstream, but the water would not enter.
In the water, Yue Zhong felt as free as he did on land, as though he was an aquatic animal. He took a deep breath, causing moonbeam to distort and enter his body.
Within the pure moonbeam was a pure astral energy. It could allow humans to break past their limits and obtain unbelievable strength. As the energy was absorbed by the gold God-Devil Nucleus in his body, it turned into a light-gold fog that spread throughout him.
Immediately, he felt his strength rise another level. Ever since he entered the Type 6 realm, each increase was getting extremely tough. This increase was comparable to the life force obtained from killing 200,000 zombies.
“What a good treasure, if I can obtain it, my strength will rise even quicker.”
Yue Zhong sensed the increase in strength and felt elated, looking towards the direction of the beam of light.
In the deep parts of the lake, there was an ancient altar, looking extremely decrepit, with a huge fist-sized pearl resting on it. It was this pearl that was emitting the moonbeam, and with the help of the altar, it emitted a straight beam up towards the sky.
At the same time, there was a huge 200m-long, mysterious and profound-looking Wyrm.
“Type 5 Wyrm, powerful overlord in these waters.”
Yue Zhong activated his Eye of Perception, obtaining only this simple piece of information. He finally understood why there were so many beasts on the outskirts, but no one dared to snatch the source of the light.
Some Type 5 Mutant Beasts were also segregated into the low, mid and high tiers. Such tiers set these Mutant Beasts aside from the normal ones, making them even more terrifying.
Although this Type 5 Wyrm was only 200m, it exuded a dangerous aura, surpassing even that of the Type 5 Mount Tai.
Inside the 3rd World, Yue Zhong had come across a few Type 6 Mutant Beasts. However, even they did not fill him with a dread like the beast in front of him.
Within these waters, as long as any Mutant Beasts entered the water, even if the 4 Type 5 Mutant Beasts had joined hands, they would only be gobbled up by the Wyrm.
Yue Zhong was clear, that even if he released Type 5 Turtle and Type 5 Mount Tai, they would only be killed by this Type 5 Wyrm in front of them. This was the assessment derived from his senses as a Type 6 expert.
The Type 5 Wyrm had its eyes closed and was absorbing the moonbeam lazily. The majority of the energy was sucked by it, leaving only a small beam shooting to the sky, for the other Mutant Beasts to absorb.
There were also other small white flowers growing beside the Type 5 Wyrm, with fruits looking like pearls in the middle of those flowers.
Yue Zhong felt his scalp go numb while watching the Wyrm absorb the moonlight. After reaching the Type 6 realm, he had confidence in fighting most Type 5 Mutant Beasts on land. However, against water-based ones, he lacked the confidence.
After hesitating for a moment, he eyed the bright pearl, and gritted his teeth, activating his Fifth Order Stealth ability, retracting all of his aura. He then slowly made his way towards the back of the Wyrm.
The lake was vast, and the Type 5 Wyrm was not the only living thing inside.
Within the lake, there were many other Mutant Beasts and fishes.
Those that were Type 2 and above feared the might of the Type 5 Wyrm and did not dare get close. However, there were unintelligent fishes that would swim close.
Many schools of fish gathered towards the moonbeam, unwilling to leave. Although they had no intelligence, their basic instincts could sense the comfort from the pearl, thus, they wanted to stick close.
Yue Zhong hid all traces of his aura, floating quietly behind the Type 5 Wyrm, following its bottom and he tried to swim upwards silently.
All of a sudden, the Type 5 Wyrm opened its eyes and adjusted its massive frame.
Yue Zhong felt his heart tighten, as his muscles went taut, ready for battle at any notice. Although he might not have much of an advantage, he would not give up without a fight.
While preparing himself, he made his way towards a stone noiselessly.
The moment the Wyrm opened its eyes, it opened its huge mouth to take a deep breath.
A large whirlpool formed within the lake, and the countless fishes that had absorbed the moonbeam were sucked into the mouth of the Type 5 Wyrm.
At the same time, Yue Zhong’s hands had already been entrenched deep into the ground of the lake.
The whirlpool began to exert a powerful suction on all the nearby lifeforms, forcing them towards the mouth of the Wyrm. Even with his hands in the ground, Yue Zhong could feel the terrifying force threatening to pull him into the body of the Wyrm.
Had he not secure himself, he would have been absorbed without being able to resist.
Water and land were different. There was hardly anything in the water he could borrow some force from. Those that did not have any abilities to control current flow, even if they were powerful Type 7 Divine Warriors, they would only be sucked into the mouth of the Type 5 Wyrm.
With a light suction, over a hundred thousand jin of fish was swallowed by the Wyrm, including some other Mutant Beasts as well.
After that, the Type 5 Wyrm then closed its eyes and continued absorbing the moonbeam.
Yue Zhong waited for a while. When he discovered that there was no further reaction, he then relaxed and swam out, moving towards the head of the Type 5 Wyrm.
As he got closer, about 30m away, he propelled himself with a powerful lunge, concentrating his Dark Dou Qi at his hands, causing his fingers to become extremely sharp as he drilled towards the scales of the Type 5 Wyrm.
Under his terrifying strength, the scales of the Type 5 Wyrm that could block even cannons were pierced by Yue Zhong’s nails, till he was an arm length’s in. As he tore, he caused a huge bloody hole to appear in the body of the Wyrm.
The blood that was filled with mysterious life force seeped up, dying the region red.
Yue Zhong stood within the blood, acting like a pile driver as he tore further in, digging into the Wyrm.
In the water, a frontal clash was too disadvantageous for Yue Zhong. As long as he got into its body, he could easily tear this Wyrm apart.
The Wyrm could feel the pain from the wound, and its eyes snapped open, as it struggled in pain. It swung its massive tail, slapping towards the area Yue Zhong was digging, with a ferocious intensity.
Currently, due to its quick reaction, Yue Zhong had only penetrated the powerful flesh of the Type 5 Wyrm halfway.
Facing the incoming attack, Yue Zhong’s eyes turned bloodshot as he roared out in rage, channeling his Dark Dou Qi, enveloping himself.
As the huge tail slapped down, Yue Zhong locked his body, forcefully defending against the tail of the Wyrm.
At that moment, a powerful force traveled from the tail, causing Yue Zhong’s entire body to sink like a nail into the flesh.
When Yue Zhong took on this strike, he felt his shoulders ached, as his energy flow got disrupted and he spat out a mouthful of blood that had a slight tinge of gold. His face turned pale, but he was elated. “Formidable! This God-Devil Body is formidable!! If it were in the past, I would have been flattened into a meat paste!! Now, I only feel the pain, but my bones are intact! This body is truly powerful!”
After being hammered into the body of the Wyrm, Yue Zhong immediately activated his God-Devil Flame. His body was shrouded in the all-devouring flame, incinerating the flesh and blood of the Wyrm.
Yue Zhong the quickly seared through the Wyrm’s body.
The tyrannical Wyrm became even more agitated, thrashing about in shock and panic.
The peaceful lake became violent, as waves over dozens of meters swept out in all directions.
Many beasts along the shore were swept up as well, falling into the lake and struggling in a frenzy.
As the massive Wyrm continued to struggle, a number of water jets shot out, spraying everywhere in a bout of rain.
After struggling for a long while, the Type 5 Wyrm finally trembled for one last time, before its head burst open, as Yue Zhong appeared with a huge goose egg-sized blue nucleus.
The Type 5 Wyrm lost all signs of life, and slumped to the bottom of the lake, lifeless.
With its death, the thick stench of blood drew all the Mutant Beasts within the lake towards its position.
Chapter 789: Superhuman Alliance!
The bottom of the lake had turned into a slaughter-fest between the Mutant Beasts, as they fought to swim over.
There were Mutant Fishes with rows of sharp teeth, their sizes larger than bungalows. There were also gigantic crocodiles that were easily over 30m long, seemingly capable of swallowing elephants. All sorts of ordinary Wyrms that did not get close were also charging forwards now.
Yue Zhong looked at the horde of beasts and immediately activated his Summon Tamed Beast, as a hole appeared at the bottom of the lake. Turtle lumbered out.
The moment Turtle appeared, it opened its huge mouth and a whirlpool appeared, directly sucking many of the Mutant Beasts. It then brought down its mighty teeth, and with multiple loud crunches, many of the Mutant Beasts were directly consumed.
Although Turtle was not as terrifying as the Type 5 Wyrm, it was still an Overlord-class beast.
When the rest of the Mutant Beasts felt Turtle’s aura, they quickly turned and fled, not daring to get close.
After they scared the most of the beasts away, Yue Zhong then went about his business, taking apart the blood, claws, and flesh of the Type 5 Wyrm.
Turtle also took the chance to gobble up the flesh of the Type 5 Wyrm.
The most precious resource of the Wyrm was its nucleus. However, its flesh was also a source of nourishment, surpassing most other Type 5 Mutant Beasts. It was even stronger than some other Type 6 Mutant Beasts as well.
In truth, its combat ability had likely surpassed some Type 6 Mutant beasts. However, due to its vessels being larger and stronger, the amount of energy needed for it to evolve surpassed most others. That was why it had been stuck at the Type 5 bottleneck.
Yue Zhong then kept the blood, claws, flesh and even the spinal fluid into his ring. He made his way towards the altar, observing it carefully.
At the center of the altar, there were many runes engraved, filled with a mysterious and ancient aura.
He continued to take a good look, before pulling out a waterproof camera to take pictures of the runes.
After settling the photographic evidence, with a thought, he produced a clone that went forward to stretch out his hand and grabbed the pearl.
The moment the pearl ended in Yue Zhong’s clone’s hands, the bright moonbeam dispersed, no longer existing.
He could feel that the moment the radiance was gone, it was harder to absorb the light, “It seems like only the altar can help exhibit its maximum effectiveness. No wonder those fellows would put the pearl here. Seems like the altar cannot be damaged.”
Yue Zhong then looked at the altar, before keeping the various white flowers nearby into special boxes.
After finishing all these, Yue Zhong then swam back up to shore.
When he broke through the water surface, he looked at the sky, noting 3 Apache Helicopters as well as a heavy carrier. Even though they were a few hundred meters above ground, Yue Zhong could see them clearly.
“Damn it!! That Chinese succeeded!” Aboard the helicopter, Jason, one super-soldier looked down with his Heaven-Seeing Eye ability, before his face suddenly changed, “Oh my god! That Chinese man is Yue Zhong! Shit!! He’s pulling out a weapon to attack us!!”
Yue Zhong was pretty famous among the various powerful factions on Earth. Many of them were paying attention to Yue Zhong’s information. After all, he was the most powerful within China right now, having fought back the arms of the Kingdom of God a few times. Some of the spies planted in the Kingdom of God by the American forces had given information back to them.
Most of the peak experts in America already knew of Yue Zhong’s might. A Super Evolver that could contend with the 12 Apostles, there were not many like him in America either, only 2 others. Since Yue Zhong could fend off the Apostles, he was naturally paid attention to.
Hearing Jason’s words, the rest of the super soldiers had ugly expressions. Not a single one of them possessed the ability of flight. Should the helicopter fall, they would all perish.
From the past records of Yue Zhong’s battles, destroying a helicopter hundreds of meters in the air was not a problem. He was known to be a marksman as well.
Cleo immediately roared, “Lime!! Tell him we have no hostile intentions!!”
Lime, a black soldier, immediately roared out downwards, “Hey!! Mr. Yue Zhong!! We’re people from the Superhuman Alliance in America!! We’ve come this time to see if we can work together with China, to fend off the invaders!! Don’t attack us!!”
Lime had the ability to broadcast his soundwaves, thus amplifying the signal over a hundred meters. His voice traveled clearly towards Yue Zhong’s ears.
“America’s Superhuman Alliance?” Yue Zhong frowned slightly and lowered his Electromagnetic Cannon.
The information network of the new Chinese government was still lacking. After all, Yue Zhong was different from the Kingdom of God and had built his faction up from scratch. Due to the inconvenience of information, it was tough even for information flow within the country, not to mention abroad.
However, with the help of the Puppet Runes, many Kingdom of God personnel had been turned into his puppets, and Yue Zhong had obtained plenty of useful information from them.
Yue Zhong had learned about the other 4 major powers in the world, namely England, the Kingdom of God, America as well as the new China.
As for the other countries, most of them had been swallowed by the Kingdom of God. While they might have resisted slightly, it was futile in the end.
Africa had become a region fought over by England as well as the Kingdom of God.
In the Middle East, England and the Kingdom of God each had a territory, with England holding a majority. India was also under the Kingdom of God.
Russia, a superpower before the apocalypse, had been largely conquered by the zombies due to the presence of the intelligent evolved zombies.
Australia was originally controlled by the Kingdom of God, but their forces there had been wiped out by the Mutant Beasts, and the place was now overrun by beasts.
The American continent had been united, but the Kingdom of God still sent many troops to infiltrate and occupy many areas within.
The rest of the countries were either overrun by zombies or split into many factions. No one else could match the current great 4.
Of them, the Kingdom of God had the largest reach and troops. However, due to its battlefronts stretching out for so many areas, there were many times where they fought losing battles. There was no doubt about their might nonetheless.
The Superhuman Alliance was truly one of the strongest factions in America. It was made up of most of the super Evolved over there, with the intentions of protecting America. They were active in resisting the Kingdom of God as well as zombies. Due to the huge legacy left behind from prior to the apocalypse, they had plenty of capital to resist the Kingdom of God.
Since these people were from that alliance, Yue Zhong did not want to engage in an all-out war if possible.
The Vampires and Flesh-Eaters of the 2nd World were already upon them. With such invaders, having an additional ally was better.
“He kept his cannon!” Lime saw Yue Zhong retract his weapon and heaved a sigh of relief.
Hearing those words, everyone else in the aircraft relaxed. They did not wish to perish in a foreign land.
Just then, Lime’s expression fell once more, “Shit, the Type 5 Green Cat is coming again!”
Lime was only at the Type 4 realm, but he could catch the movements of the Type 5 Green Cat with some difficulty. He noticed it slaughtering the entire special forces battalion, as it made its way towards Yue Zhong.
“What?”
Hearing Lime’s words, the soldiers all stepped forward to look out.
Yue Zhong just kept his weapon when he felt a sense of danger. He activated his Dark Dou Qi and brought his fist across the air, punching towards his right.
There had been nothing there when suddenly, a lithe figure appeared. The Type 5 Green Cat had not expected Yue Zhong’s reaction to be this terrifying, and was struck by his fist, sent flying out a few meters.
In the air, Lime exclaimed in shock, “Holy shit! Did my eyes go bad? A human could actually punch a Type 5 Beast and send it flying?! Is he still human!?”
Cleo sighed, “No wonder. He truly is something to have built a faction up and conquered ⅓ of China. Even the Kingdom of God had suffered under his rule.”
Chapter 790: Suppressing the Type 5 Mutant Beast!
Rosie looked at Yue Zhong with a hint of excitement, “Say, who is stronger between him and Leo?”
Leo was the strongest hero within the Superhuman Alliance, a genius of America. Before the apocalypse, he was just like the 12 Apostles, a person with supernatural abilities. After the world changed, his abilities underwent a huge evolution. As the Kingdom of God led their forces to defeat a few American factions, Leo had stepped up to form the Superhuman Alliance, defeating those invaders. It helped America regain their footing, recovering the various lost bases, finally becoming one of the current superpowers.
Susan, another blond with a pair of huge boobs and exquisite features had a look of adoration on her face, “Brother Leo is the strongest!”
Cleo spoke up with confidence, “Leo had gained a secret treasure from the 3rd World and has likely crossed the Type 5 Divine Warrior realm. However, even he might not necessarily defeat those Type 5 Mutant Beasts below. Therefore, I believe that without the usage of any trump cards, Yue Zhong would win. But, if Leo used his trump card, Yue Zhong would definitely die.”
“Leo eh? I should meet him if I have the chance.” While the American soldiers were discussing in the skies, they did not expect the contents of their conversation to be overheard by Yue Zhong.
Yue Zhong glanced in the direction of the Mutant Green Cat that had been blown away by him. With a flash, he leaped towards its direction.
In that instant, he had appeared in front of the beast, his right hand flying towards the Mutant Green Cat like a cannon.
The Mutant Green Cat was proud of its speed, however, it was helpless and could not dodge Yue Zhong’s attack. A ferocious light flashed past its eyes, as it tried to meet his fist with its own claw.
Although humanoid Type 5 Mutant Beasts did not have the strength that other behemoth-types had, they were still strong, exceeding Type 5 and even some Type 6 Divine Warriors of other species.
As their fists met, there was a loud sound of impact. The ground beneath the Type 5 Mutant Green Cat cracked, with half its leg stuck. There was a look of shock in its eyes, as it realized that this human’s flesh physique was stronger than itself.
“A Type 5 Mutant Beast is truly strong. If any other Type 5 Divine Warrior were to take on this fist of mine, their bones and veins would likely shatter.”
Yue Zhong saw how the Mutant Green Cat met his assault and was also slightly taken aback. However, he continued to exert his Dark Dou Qi as he threw another punch.
The Type 5 Green Cat could only block the hits but was slammed into the ground by Yue Zhong’s relentless assault, blood flowing out of its orifices.
Lime was shocked as he exclaimed, “Holy smokes. He’s actually suppressing the Type 5 humanoid Mutant Beast using purely his physique. That’s too freaking monstrous man!”
When the various members heard that, their expressions were filled with shock.
Cleo turned his complicated gaze downwards, as he spoke, “I had thought that the Kingdom of God had exaggerated Yue Zhong’s capability. Seems like those people should be executed. His strength exceeded whatever they made it out to be. If we had taken him on with that wrong info, it would have been a catastrophe.”
A few of them nodded silently, agreeing with his words.
America was a practical country, with its foreign affairs policies being extremely dynamic. It had always been for the sake of the country. They would dictate weaker factions, while using sanctions against bigger powers, sometimes even threatening force.
If the new China was a weak power, then, after America had stabilized itself, it would not hesitate to overthrow China. However, if China was strong, then America would quickly change roles and seek a cooperation.
If a country was weak, then its ties with others would be nonexistent, only being food for others to devour.
After witnessing Yue Zhong’s might, Cleo and the rest let go of the arrogance they held onto since Leo had brought the technology back from the 3rd World. They now viewed China as a power on equal footing.
A Type 6 Divine Warrior was able to wreak havoc on Earth. Only a nuclear weapon could possibly pose a threat to such an existence.
Selena saw how Yue Zhong toyed with the Type 5 Mutant Green Cat, her body trembling as her eyes gleamed with excitement, “Strong!! He’s too strong!! That is a Type 5 Mutant Beast, and he actually suppressed it! With his help, we definitely can overthrow the Kingdom of God!”
Yue Zhong sent out over a thousand punches, with extreme viciousness, pummeling the Type 5 Mutant Green Cat till it bled everywhere.
Its defense was finally blown apart by Yue Zhong, and it was sent flying through the air, breaking through a number of towering trees, before smashing into a boulder heavily. The impact even caused the boulder to be destroyed, as it spat out a mouthful of blood.
Yue Zhong took a deep breath, before disappearing and reappearing in front of the Mutant Green Cat.
The Type 5 Mutant Green Cat let out a purr, with a pleading look, “Meow!!”
After becoming a Type 6 Divine Warrior, Yue Zhong’s perception was heightened, and he could sense the plea from the Mutant Green Cat. He stopped his fist right in front of its head, coldly declaring, “You want me to stop? Sure, but don’t resist and become my pet. Otherwise, I’ll kill you and retrieve your nucleus.”
He then waved his hand, activating the Tamed Beast technique, sending a bright light into its head.
The Type 5 Mutant Green Cat maintained obedience and allowed the technique to enter its body.
While the strength of a humanoid Mutant Beast was weaker than those beast-types, their intelligence was higher. This Type 5 Mutant Green Cat could understand Yue Zhong and was willing to oblige, thus allowing the technique to be imprinted on it.
The glow of the technique radiated for a while before dissipating. At that moment, Yue Zhong could sense the connection between it and himself clearly. The Type 5 Mutant Green Cat had truly become his summoned Beast.
“Meow~!”
After establishing that connection, the Type 5 Mutant Green Cat pounced on Yue Zhong and stuck out its tongue to lick his face, expressing its affection.
“Holy shit!! He actually subdued a Type 5 Mutant Beast.”
“Heavens, that was unbelievable.”
“…”
In the sky, Cleo and the rest watched with their eyes wide-open.
What was a Type 5 Mutant Beast? On Earth, if such a beast was to go on a rampage, a small country could be destroyed easily.
Cleo and the rest could make use of weapons to kill a Type 5 Mutant Beast, or in the earlier instance, the 3 because they were distracted by the moonbeam as well as the other Mutant Beasts. Thus, their defenses had been lowered, that was how they could have gained an advantage.
If it were in another setting, even with their advanced technology, they would not dare to pick a fight with a humanoid Type 5 Mutant Beast.
Yue Zhong ruffled the Green Cat’s brain and chuckled, “From now on, I’ll call you Green Cat!”
Green Cat revealed a look of contentment as it purred, “Meow~~!”
Yue Zhong then eyed the sky and declared coldly, “Come on down.”
His voice was not loud, but it traveled the few hundred meters, ringing clearly by the ears of those in the sky, cause them to all falter.
Cleo immediately gave the order, “Descend!”
The American helicopters immediately made their way down.
Cleo walked up to Yue Zhong and reached out his hand warmly, “How do you do, Leader Yue Zhong. I’m the commander of the 7th Squad in the Superhuman Alliance, Cleo. I’m honored to meet you.”
Yue Zhong shook his hand in return and replied indifferently, “Hello.”
Cleo continued to praise him, before getting straight to the point, “Leader Yue Zhong, you’re truly something. We’ve heard of your feats in America, and you have taught those Germans from the Kingdom of God a lesson. It does make us Americans happy. Oh yes, what did you get in the lake, can you show us?”
A number of curious gazes immediately fell upon Yue Zhong, the soldiers of the Superhuman Alliance were all eager to know.
Yue Zhong rejected, “That’s classified information.”
He had not yet determined what the pearl could do, thus, he would not let them look at it so easily. This was to maintain an aura of mystery.
No matter what, Yue Zhong had to keep some trump cards, otherwise, the enemy would know how to counter him.
Cleo immediately put on an apologetic expression, “My bad, I got too curious.”
Yue Zhong replied, “No problem. This is not a suitable place to talk, let’s head to my base.”
Cleo agreed quickly, “Sure!”
Shangguan Qing Cheng had already left the region long ago.
Yue Zhong and Selena boarded the helicopter, and he directed the rest towards the county where his forces were waiting.
Outside the county, there was a dense horde of zombies that stretched out for miles.
When the helicopter got close, Yue Zhong pointed to the county and said, “It’s right there.”
Lime saw the zombies and felt his scalp go numb, “Oh my god, those are zombies!! Your base is in their midst?! Are you for real?!”
Cleo’s face was also ugly, but he maintained his manners, “Leader Yue Zhong, you must be pulling our legs. How can there be live people within a zombie horde?”
Jason, with his Heaven-Seeing Eyes, quickly exclaimed, “Lights!! What the hell?! There are lights down there!! Cleo, the county has people!!”
The pilot had a look of incredulity as he threw the transmitter over, “Head!! There was a warning from below. If we continue to fly, they will attack us! They are people from the China Central Army! Yue Zhong, you talk to them.”
At the same time, 6 Thunder Fighters flew out from the county, heading for them.
The Thunder Fighter was the most advanced aerial weapon right now, and 6 of them were enough to destroy this American fleet.
Yue Zhong received the transmitter and spoke into it, “It’s me, Yue Zhong. These aircraft are not the enemy.”
A voice full of vigor came from the other end, “Yes! Leader! Please allow our Falcon 2nd Squad to escort you.”
Yue Zhong did not refuse, “Ok!”
The 6 Thunder Fighters flew over quickly, covering the flanks of the aircraft.
Lime saw the aircraft and his eyes were filled with envy, as he asked Yue Zhong, “Thunder Fighters. Those things are even fiercer than our Apaches. Their defenses are also high, known to be the Kingdom of God’s trump cards. These fellows have given us a hard time. Yue Zhong, how did you obtain such machines in good condition?”
The Thunder Fighters were advanced technology and were basically tanks in the skies. They could bring with them devastating ammunition and used to obliterate enemies.
Over 20,000 Americans had died under these war machines. Even experts from the Superhuman Alliance were not spared. Thus, Lime had a strong impression of them.
Yue Zhong replied mildly, “You just have to kill their pilots.”
Seeing Yue Zhong unwilling to answer, Lime did not question further. He turned to look out at the zombies below him, feeling his hair stand once more. He then looked at Yue Zhong with a strange gaze, “This fellow, is he someone instated by the evolved zombies?”
Seeing the huge horde, the members of the Superhuman Alliance could not control their expressions, as they looked at Yue Zhong with fear, afraid that he was a puppet installed by the intelligent zombies.
