“They have five zombie dominators while we only have two. We don’t have powerful weapons either, only guns and bullets. The weapons we have can deliver some effects to level-three or four zombies, but for the ones at level-six or seven, they’re useless,” said Yuan Tianxing.
In other words, if the battle really started, the ten zombie kings and queens under that zombie emperor’s command would be able to destroy the thousands of people in the base, not to mention the fact that they also had five level-seven zombies and countless ordinary zombies.
Lin Qiao left those ordinary zombies to protect the base, but unexpectedly, they now became a part of the threat.
“I’ll go and talk to him! Let’s find out what exactly he wants!” Qiu Lili abruptly began talking. Her face wore a cold look, and her eyes sparkled with a red light.
“No! What if he attacks you?” Yun Meng immediately objected.
“Do not take the risk!” Yuan Tianxing shook his head as well. He understood that Qiu Lili was the strongest being in the base, but still, she wasn’t capable of winning against five zombie dominators and a zombie emperor.
“Are we gonna stay here and wait for death then? Perhaps, he has a purpose. Maybe there’ll be a chance for the situation to change if I talk to him,” Qiu Lili said with a frown.
She understood that the more time they bought, the larger would be the chance for them to hang on until Lin Qiao returned. However, she couldn’t say for sure if the zombie emperor would launch an attack in the next second.
They needed to figure out what the enemies wanted!
“It’s too dangerous! If one of us has to go, it’ll be me!” Yun Meng dragged her arm and stood before her, looking at her in the eyes as she spoke.
“I’ll be fine. Although I can’t defeat them, I’m better at escaping than you are!” Qiu Lili said to Yun Meng. She was stronger than Yun Meng. Also, as a wind power possessor, she could even escape from a zombie emperor if she ran at her highest speed.
“No! We don’t know how powerful a zombie emperor can be. No one has ever met a zombie emperor. Even though you possess two types of power, you are still a level lower than him. We can’t take the risk!” Yuan Tianxing still nodded.
“We can’t do this, can’t do that. What should we do then!” Qiu Lili pouted and complained grumpily.
“We wait! Let’s not make any decision until the enemies take their next move,” said Yuan Tianxing.
…
In the lobby of the hotel, the people gathered there were already getting very emotional.
“Hong long are you gonna keep us in this place? It’s been nearly three days! Why don’t you tell us what is going on?” A person questioned Duan Juan and her people, who were guarding the door.
“Quiet, do not leave the hotel.! The outside is very dangerous now. We can’t control the situation. If you do not follow our words, we won’t be able to protect you,” said Duan Juan to the people loudly.
“We don’t need protection! We are no weak people! We can fight! Otherwise, why did we follow you to this new base?” said one of the people around her.
Those people were the ones who followed Lin Qiao and Duan Juan to the new base from the old Hades Base. Each one of them was strong-minded. Therefore, being grounded in the hotel made them nurse a grievance.
“It’s okay if you want us to stay here, but at least give us a fair reason,” another man said loudly.
“Yes! Give us a reason! It’ll be okay even if you want us to go out and risk our lives to fight!”
Seeing that those people were almost losing control of their emotions, Duan Juan thought for a moment, and then responded, “Alright, let me go upstairs and talk to Deputy Chief Yuan first. I’ll ask him to explain it to you. Please wait for a minute.”
After saying that, she walked across the lobby and went upstairs.
Duan Juan went up to the roof and walked up behind Yuan Tianxing and the others, “The people down there are in rage. They are asking for a reason. What should we do?”
Yuan Tianxing spent a moment thinking, then said to the others, “Maybe we should tell them the truth. It’ll be better than them making random guesses and running out.”
“I agree,” Lin Feng nodded.
Yun Meng and Qiu Lili weren’t a part of that kind of decisions, so neither of them made an objection.
Yuan Tianxing turned and followed Duan Juan downstairs.
But right at that moment, a strong, suppressive vibe descended from the sky.
“Roar!” Qiu Lili and Yun Meng immediately switched to their fighting mode. They bared their teeth and faced a tall male zombie that had suddenly showed up on the roof.
Yun Meng had scales covering all her skin as she wagged her long tail and lashed on the ground loudly.
Seeing their reactions, Lin Feng instantly tightened his entire body and stared at the male zombie, as if he was a powerful enemy.
The zombie had a pretty face. Except for his dark eyes, the most eye-catching thing on his face was those tree-roots-like veins on his left cheek. He was tall and slim. His clothes were as clean as those worn by the others on the roof. Even his black hair were perfectly brushed.
Yun Meng and Qiu Lili both fixed their eyes on him. Even though he was alone, yet the sense of crisis given by him through the short distance even made them feel hard to breathe.
That was the pressure that came from a zombie emperor!
Earlier on, they only sensed him from a long distance, but now, they were face to face with him. That felt completely different.
The zombie emperor curiously looked at Yun Meng and Qiu Lili.
He had been observing them for three days. Now, he finally couldn’t help but come here to meet them in person.
He moved her purple lips, then opened her mouth and uttered a deep yet slight sound—”Roar…”
Qiu Lili and Yun Meng both became nervous. They stared at him and said, “So what! You look the same as us!”
Hearing the two of them talk in one voice, the zombie emperor blinked.
“Roar…” ‘You can talk! Why?’
Just now, he asked them if they remembered their human lives. They answered that question, and also guessed out that he was the same as them.
Hearing the second question, Qiu Lili and Yun Meng stayed silent.
The zombie emperor wasn’t anxious. Instead, he continued patiently, “Roar…” ‘I won’t hurt you. Can you tell me how you did it?’
The zombie emperor was going for Sea City Base. But on his way, he suddenly sensed that two zombie dominators were in the small base. Therefore, he came this way. His purpose was simple.
He wanted to bring the two of them under his command!
He came here to ask the two zombie dominators to join his army. Weirdly, he found that their vibes were mixed together with the vibes of many other zombies, and a group of human beings.
Why? Why were zombies and human beings in the same place? Had those two zombies been attacking those humans?
As he got closer, he realized that he was wrong.
He was surprised when he found that the two zombie dominators were actually getting along with some other high-leveled zombies and some human beings peacefully. At that moment, his curiosity was aroused.
What was going on in that place? Those zombies were not attacking the humans in that base. On the contrary, through a short observation, he found that those zombies had actually been protecting those human beings.
There was the other reason why the zombie emperor never launched an attack. Apart from the two zombie dominators, he wanted to figure out another thing.
