Chapter 2004: Chapter 2004
Her hands wrapped around Tang Ye’s neck as he dashed into the bedroom; the door slammed shut, and soon there was a thunderstorm of passion.
While this scene of spring unfolded here, the four Chu brothers, heading this way from afar, suddenly paused in their tracks.
"What’s going on, boss?"
"The boss said it, so we just follow his orders."
"Then let’s not disturb them; let’s leave first and find Ha Zhen and the others."
"Ah, I hope we don’t encounter any other Zombie Kings halfway..."
After a short exchange, Hu Ji looked at Xu Haishui and asked, "Brother Xu, want to join me?"
Xu Haishui thought for a few seconds and ultimately shook his head in refusal.
"You guys go ahead, I still have my own matters to deal with here."
"Alright, then you go handle your affairs, we’ll head off first."
Xu Haishui nodded, watching as the four zombies walked past him, discussing matters related to Tang Ye as they went.
"By the way, what exactly is the relationship between Chen Bieli and the boss..."
Xu Haishui stood there in silent contemplation for a while, saying nothing, and gradually walked off in a certain direction.
Because of Tang Ye’s interference, the divine rain plan was thwarted, but for Xu Haishui, this didn’t mean everything was over. He still had to find a way to swap his sister out of the army’s formation. The longer she stayed, the more dangerous it became!
Outside the southeastern defense line of Cloud Gorge Base, as dozens of Endless Journeys entered the battlefield, the initially massive and daunting zombie tide began to retreat step by step, with one high-level zombie after another being killed in the most direct manner!
Without the control of high-level zombies, the entire zombie tide became increasingly chaotic, and the low-level zombies saw nothing but fresh flesh in front of them, oblivious to the danger to their own lives, charging headlong!
Even though zombies continuously supplemented from behind, it was difficult to hide the disadvantage.
The soldiers on the wall, watching the scene, paid no mind to their aching arms and cheered loudly, as if victory was certain, yet Chi Biyi, who just took over command from Xu Tianyu, wasn’t happy. He looked at the increasingly red sky in the distance, his expression growing more vigilant as time went on!
The radiation clouds spreading radially in the sky were increasing in number, what did that imply? Chi Biyi was all too aware, yet outside among the zombie tide, there were no more radium-combustive species to be seen!
Initially, a few could be spotted, but now the zombie bodies were piled high, and the radium-combustive species weren’t increasing but getting fewer!
This sent an uneasy feeling through him.
"What tricks are being played now! F*ck!" he cursed inwardly, wanting to quiet the cheering soldiers, but realizing that these men had been through hell and back in this battle, he ultimately refrained.
A bit of joy wouldn’t hurt; maybe there won’t be another chance moving forward...
The emerald green light emitted from the bodies of the Endless Journeys cast an eerie glow over the ground, pairs of iron feet tread back and forth, leaving behind pits and pits filled with fully congealed rotting flesh!
More and more zombies lost their lives and their mobility, Chi Biyi patiently awaited, not knowing how long had passed; he saw the number of zombies replenishing from behind the tide was dwindling, his mind relaxed slightly. The rıghtful source is 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩
Perhaps he was overthinking things...
He consoled himself, praying nothing would happen. If nothing unexpected occurred, victory would surely be theirs!
But just as he thought this, his communicator suddenly vibrated at his waist. After rubbing his still aching shoulder, he took off the communicator to check, but as soon as his eyes swept over the contents, his expression turned confused.
"Why?" he couldn’t help but question, looking at the piles of zombie corpses outside the wall, the battlefield clear of zombies above Level 7, and few Level 6 zombies remaining. Yet it was at this moment that Su Sigui ordered them to abandon the southeastern defense wall?
In a short time, he couldn’t understand why. The order above left no room for maneuver, was decisive and straightforward, instructing immediate evacuation!
Not doing it right away, Chi Biyi prepared to directly contact Su Sigui for clarification, but as he stepped out of the command room, he heard exclamations from the nearby soldiers: "What’s wrong with those zombies?!"
Chi Biyi turned to look, his brows instantly furrowing.
The zombies within the tide suddenly stopped their mad charge, causing such an eerie scene, only one possibility existed: a new high-level zombie had taken control of the tide!
But where was this high-level zombie?
He gazed into the distance at the ghostly silhouette of the old-world city but hadn’t located the newly arrived high-level zombie yet.
After the tide was subdued, it didn’t continue approaching the defense wall, instead scattered to the sides, seemingly clearing a path for some presence.
This sight made Chi Biyi’s heart race uncontrollably!
The zombies, spreading to the sides, then retreated back further, and shortly, a hazy figure in the distance drew everyone’s attention. He strolled leisurely in the middle of the tide, neither hurried nor agitated. As he appeared, the air itself grew heavy!
On the battlefield, dozens of mechs simultaneously turned their mechanical heads, the eye shield bathed in faint light locking onto the man firmly.
Clad in a black cloak, glimpses of white short hair beneath were particularly striking against the darkness!
As he walked, he drew a long bone blade, its edge dragging on the ground, leaving a shallow line.
"This is..." Upon recognizing the man, Chi Biyi’s pupils constricted!
The opponent’s attire resembled a Zombie King’s; initially, Chi Biyi indeed thought he was a Zombie King, yet the real Chinese Zombie King was confirmed to be within Cloud Gorge Base, currently having a somewhat ambiguous stance.
And that guy was a fake! His identity was shouting out loud!
The Level 9 Rester, Chen Chaoyang, who appeared at Mengjiao Base!
Unexpectedly, before the Zombie King arrived, this guy came first!
Chi Biyi’s hand trembled slightly; if the opponent attacked, they wouldn’t be able to stop him!
But this helped him understand why Su Sigui ordered abandoning the southeastern defense line.
No choice but to abandon it!
He hesitated no longer, took out the communicator connecting to the public channel and decisively whispered, "Everyone listen up, evacuate immediately from here, retreat to North entrance A7 and await orders."
Upon receiving his command, all the soldiers on site sprang into action immediately, no one dared delay, orderly evacuating as fast as possible from the defense wall, while the mechs on the battlefield carefully began to retreat too. But among them, there was one exception.
One controlled a mech to charge straight at Chen Chaoyang!
Such a sight initially stunned Chi Biyi; when he recovered, he couldn’t help but curse, "Damn it, this idiot, bring your a*s back to me!"
