Chapter 116: Tier 5 Zombie King, Vampire!
Trantor: As Studios Editor: As Studios
Lolita’s mother had a good idea.
But there were many problems involved.
The first was direction, the second was battle losses, the third was the path, the fourth was the method of escape.
And the list goes on to five, six, seven, eight, nine…
In short, it was very difficult, very difficult indeed.
“But no matter how difficult it is, we have to give it a try. If we don’t try now and wait until this ce ispletely enveloped by the ck Mist, we’ll have to try again…”
It was known that one needed the strength of a Level 5 to be led away by the Holy Tower, and it was also known that the speed of the ck Mist’s shrinking would be faster and faster.
The time left for the survivors was less than two months, and this time was simply not enough for all the survivors to be Level 5 Awakened individuals. Even with the Basic Breathing Technique, time was insufficient.
Furthermore, the situation behind the Holy Tower was also unknown. Huo Sheng really could not take this risk.
Therefore, there was only one path left—to go to the ck Mist Zone.
They either fought their way out or struggled to survive within the ck Mist Zone.
ncing sideways at Lu Ming, Huo Sheng realized that Lu Ming’s face showed no expression at all.
Huo Sheng could not help but sigh in his heart.
He actually had the intention of letting Lu Ming lead the team to explore the ck Mist Zone – after all, he had already said that in another two months, this side would be swallowed by the ck Mist.
But for now, it seemed that Lu Ming had no thoughts about the ck Mist Zone at all.
This was not surprising.
Lu Ming’s personality was just like that.
In addition, Lu Ming was special. Not to mention two months, even if there was only one day left, Lu Ming could be a little stronger. Theter he went to the ck Mist Zone, the more advantageous it was for Lu Ming!
After figuring this out, Huo Sheng no longer had any other thoughts.
After chatting with Lu Ming for a while, Huo Sheng bade farewell and left. Lu Ming finished his meal and prepared to take a nap.
[Day 110 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Thursday.]
[Nothing happened.]
With the help of an Awakened with healing abilities, Bai Tianyu was healed of his injuries.
At the same time, he invited Duan Mei to join the ck Mist Exploration Team and she dly epted.
On the same day, Huo Shengpleted the dissection of the Six-legged Wolf Bear and confirmed that there were no zombie crystals in the exotic beast’s body. Moreover, its flesh and blood could only fill his stomach but could not rece the function of the Breathing Technique or Zombie Crystals.
On the other hand, the Flesh Mountain was the same as the zombies. They both had zombie crystals.
[Day 111 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Friday.]
[Observations showed that the contraction speed of th ck Mist had indeed elerated several times.]
[Day 112 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Saturday.]
[There was unusual movement observed in the zombies outside Nanxiang City, but the authorities did not dare to investigate further.]
[Day 113th day of the Apocalypse Calendar, Sunday.]
[Noon.]
[Outside Nanxiang City, at the edge of Linhai County.]
[An enormous number of zombies gathered here.]
[Among them, there were even five Tanks and two Devourers!]
The Second Zombie King Gathering?
No, it wasn’t.
Because there was only one true protagonist in this zombie feast!
The real ruler standing at the forefront of the zombies.
Gris ss!
It had long golden hair and, in appearance, was simr to a human, but its skin was even paler than that of Caucasians.
Yet, it didn’t have green or blue eyes.
Its pupils were deep red.
Faint ripples emanated from those deep red pupils, as if there was a profound sea of blood hidden within its eyes.
Besides Gris, Simba and Lian Jie hadplicated expressions, but they stood quietly like well-behaved primary school students.
It all started three days ago…
After being ambushed by the Six-Legged Wolf Bears, Simba and Lian Jie once again embarked on a journey of escape.
The two pitiful Tier 4 Zombie Kings were like stray dogs, unable to find a moment of peace…
In short, the two of them ran into Gris ss!
Then, they immediately knelt down on the spot…
High-tier zombies naturally had a terrifying suppressive ability over low-tier zombies—before Gris, the two Tier 4 Devourers had absolutely no room to resist.
As for this Gris ss, it was a zombie that had crossed over from the ck Mist Zone—yes, not only humans could enter the ck Mist Zone, but zombies could as well.
If a zombie wanted to leave the ck Mist Zone, the conditions were even harsher than for an Awakened.
However, there was a trick like taking the opportunity to cross over when the ck Mist split open.
That was exactly what Gris had done.
Although it was very coincidental, it had indeede from New York to Nanxiang—yes, it was a zombie from America’s side.
As for Gris ss’s legendary experience, there was no need to go into such detail.
The focus was on its objective.
After finally leaving the ck Mist Zone, Gris ss was prepared to y a big game.
To unite the horde of zombies in Nanxiang and, at thest moment, take them all to the ck Mist Zone.
To put it bluntly, it was living a miserable life in the ck Mist Zone and was preparing to return to the Newbie Vige to develop. This was also why it spared the lives of Simba and Lian Jie and instead took them as its underlings.
Today, Gris brought its underlings to Linhai County.
It had heard from Simba that there was a special zombie here.
It was called the Blood Flesh Mother Tree!
“Zombies are the darlings of the Mystery Factor.
Under the influence of the mystery factor, zombies will show various evolutionary paths.
From the Tier 4 zombies, there were two evolutionary routes —Tank and Devourer.
And at Tier 5, there will be more evolutionary routes.
For example, the Tank’s evolutionary forms are Flesh Mountain, Hunter, and Sadist.
Or for example, the evolutionary form of the Devourer: Me.”
Gris spoke softly, saying so.
It was in English, but Simba could understand it—it might have been a high-intellectual before bing a zombie…
As soon as Gris finished speaking, Simba immediately started boot licking.
“Boss’s evolution must be very impressive, right?”
Gris’s lips curled up into a faint smile.
“Vampire, I’ll name my form Vampire.
In fact, we Devourers are the favorites of the Mystery Factor.
The Devourer can devour different superpower genes and obtain various abilities. However, as an experienced person, I’ll give you a piece of advice. Don’t eat too many and too diverse genes. Absorb only superpower genes. After absorbing enough genes with highpatibility, the Devourer will advance to a Tier 5 creature!
And depending on the different genes consumed, the Devourer’s advancement form is also different.
For example, I, having sessively absorbed different abilities like blood control, bodily transformation, blood boiling, ultrasonic waves, and so on, could sessfully evolve to my current state, possessing all the power stemming from blood!
Therefore, every Level 5 creature evolved from a Devourer has a different form and ability.”
Simba started licking again.
“Thank you Boss, for your teachings! Boss is peerless and valiant, Boss will unify Nanxiang!”
Gris’s lips curled up again.
But it raised his hand and pointed to the huge monster in the center of Linhai County.
“But I’ve never seen this thing before.”
The Blood Flesh Mother Tree looked like a willow or a pine tree.
No one knew if this thing was a nt, an animal, or a zombie…
“But 1 think it should be a zombie. Did the two of you see that? Absorbing foreign genes randomly caused its genes to copse. This is the oue.”
ording to Gris’s judgment, the Blood Flesh Mother Tree should be a wrong evolution product of the Devourer’s indiscriminate absorption of foreign genes.
This kind of thing was very troublesome and dangerous.
However, once it was subdued, it would be an extremely powerful trump card!
With this in mind, Gris made up his mind.
“You guys wait here. I’ll go take a look at what this thing really is..”
