Chapter 1944: Chapter 1944

The elevator emitted a light "ding" sound. As the doors opened, what came into view was a hall where dozens of soldiers stood on both sides, looking stern, holding deadly laser weapons.

Tang Ye immediately noticed Su Sigui’s back. She was looking at the image projected on the white wall in front of her, twisting a pen. It wasn’t until Tang Ye came beside her that he noticed a sense of unprecedented seriousness on Su Sigui’s face!

"Why are you here?" Detecting Tang Ye’s arrival, Su Sigui turned her head to look, but the other party didn’t act, only jokingly said, "Do you believe me if I say I’m bored and came to find you for fun?"

"Okay." Tang Ye licked his somewhat dry lips, his gaze moving to the image that Su Sigui was looking at earlier and asked, "What’s that on the screen?"

The content in the projection resembled some kind of terrain map, with variously colored lines, each marked with symbols that were incomprehensible to the observer.

"Oh that, it’s just a map of the zombie horde’s movements." Su Sigui responded without thinking.

"A map of the zombie horde’s movements?" Tang Ye was puzzled at once. If it’s as Su Sigui said, isn’t the zombie horde indicated on the map slightly underestimated? Counting lightly, there are only seven markers, while the silver-armored zombie horde gathering in the north already exceeds dozens of hordes!

At first, Tang Ye thought Su Sigui was teasing him for his lack of education, intentionally deceiving him.

But Su Sigui also seemed to see through Tang Ye’s doubts, and jokingly berated him, "What are you thinking, idiot? The silver-armored zombie horde isn’t marked on there."

"Oh, I see." Tang Ye nodded knowingly, simultaneously giving Su Sigui a strange look. The other party seemingly regarded the silver-armored zombie horde as allies. Although somewhat prepared, Tang Ye found it a bit peculiar.

However, he did not inquire further but instead shared another perplexity from his heart with Su Sigui.

"Why do you need to come here to see these things when you can view them elsewhere?"

Upon hearing the question, Su Sigui smiled mysteriously before saying, "Just doing a little test, but..." She sighed, her expression turning serious again.

"Their reaction seems a bit excessive, which I didn’t anticipate."

"Excessive reaction..." Tang Ye was also momentarily stunned, "What did you do?"

Instead of directly answering, Su Sigui looked at Tang Ye and asked, "If the world had something that could directly kill you, posing a serious threat, what would you choose to do?"

Her words implied a deeper meaning, which Tang Ye quickly realized. What in Cloud Gorge Base could kill him directly? Tang Ye wasn’t sure, but it seemed humanity’s only trump cards were the Endless Journey and the Divine Rain Project, the former effective against Level 8 zombies if there’s a numerical advantage.

However, for the Zombie Kings, it’s nothing but a joke; just a little extra effort at Level 8. Yet the latter...

That thing could disassemble even him, a Zombie King. Tang Ye wasn’t sure if it could kill him.

"Of course, destroy whatever you’re talking about by any means possible." He answered.

"Correct response, so those Zombie Kings took actions matching your answer."

"Then..." Su Sigui looked at the projection on the white wall not far away, "Around three o’clock last night, we lost track of the Abyssal Zombie King; it seems to have abandoned its horde, heading somewhere unknown. Meanwhile, the North Pole Zombie King landed from the East Sea Area, moving west at a speed of two hundred kilometers per hour, targeting the city we’re currently in."

"Why didn’t I receive this information?"

"This message was suppressed by us; many people are unaware. If you hadn’t come to see me, you might not have known either." Su Sigui manipulated the device beside her, quickly changing the content on the screen to what seemed to be a coastal city from the old era.

The image was still for over ten seconds before the sea water receded, the ground cracked, and then the tide surged, forming a terrifying tsunami that thundered against the shore. The waves surged inland, and the old era’s buildings were instantly toppled, proving the tsunami’s devastating force!

Not long after, the old city’s dead buildings were submerged, and amidst the blurry view, a thick tentacle, indescribable in size, appeared faintly in the waves, accompanied by a horrific storm violently thrashing the ground. In an instant, countless buildings and evolved plants were pulverized!

A colossal creature, whose full form was obscured, but Tang Ye could only see the wrinkled surface akin to thousand-year-old tree bark on the screen!

This is the North Pole Zombie King!

With a size towering like the terrifying ancient gods from Cthulhu novels, based on reference objects before its appearance, the North Pole Zombie King is approximately five hundred meters tall, terrifying beyond imagination!

Even through the screen, the immense pressure seemed suffocating!

"This video was left by one of the reconnaissance teams in Zhuhai City. Now, the team is completely wiped out. With the North Pole Zombie King’s speed, it’ll arrive at Cloud Gorge Base by the earliest at four tomorrow, or the latest by five the following morning." Upon saying this, Su Sigui took a breath, her face carrying some sarcasm as she continued, "The situation has worsened; evidently, Zombie Kings, like most life forms, have a fundamental fear of death."

Tang Ye looked at Su Sigui, unsure whether to voice what was on his mind. Honestly, Su Sigui acted somewhat recklessly. Clearly, those Zombie Kings came begging for food; nobody wants to end up slain before securing sustenance, right?

Yes, the Zombie Kings’ reaction was indeed unexpected; even Su Sigui hadn’t foreseen this. It seems her plan was completely disrupted.

"Then what are you going to do next?"

"What else, fight to the death. Since Cloud Gorge Base is at the forefront, to me, it’s precisely an opportunity."

As she said this, a hint of murder flashed on Su Sigui’s face, which Tang Ye immediately understood, intending for all participants in this war to perish at Cloud Gorge Base!

The previous plan was overly conservative because the influence of the Siphon Tower hadn’t spread widely. Some places without "eyes" might barely have constructed the Siphon Tower before being destroyed by zombies, making it more a matter of gambling luck.

However, Cloud Gorge Base is different; the Siphon Tower’s influence covers the entire base. If the Four Great Zombie Kings dare to gather, they’ll all be captured. Yet this method harms the enemy ten thousand and also self-injures ten thousand. Su Sigui’s subsequent plans would be meaningless, but at this point, it’s the best approach, even if it doesn’t attain Su Sigui’s most ideal scenario.
