I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 1283 - 1278: Priority Entry

Chapter 1283: Chapter 1278: Priority Entry

The atmosphere here quieted for a moment, when the short man suddenly smiled and said with a hoarse and chilling voice, "A newcomer? You look unfamiliar." After speaking, a slender claw stretched out from his shoulder toward Yan Xing.

At that very moment, Yan Xing could feel the malice emanating from him. Just as the claw was about to touch his face, a flash of silver light appeared, and a silver curved blade chopped the claw in half.

"Oh? Near-Heaven Level? Not bad."

The short man chuckled "hehe", and six more slender flesh claws stretched out from his shoulders, swiftly attacking Yan Xing.

"Ah, wait."

Just at the last moment, Ha Zhen suddenly spoke, and the short man quickly withdrew his attacking appendages, looking at Ha Zhen questioningly, "What’s wrong?"

"Old Hong, can you not be so impulsive?" Ha Zhen said. The short man, known as Old Hong, just chuckled "hehe" and did not respond.

Next, Ha Zhen looked at Yan Xing and asked, "Where is the woman? Did only you come?"

Yan Xing nodded his head, considering the presence of three Level 8 Powerhouses around him, he awkwardly said, "Actually, tomorrow we have to attend something called the Long Day Feast. The person our mayor is looking for should be in that palace. We don’t have an invitation, so it seems we can’t get in."

Ha Zhen nodded, turned, and walked into a small room on the right. He soon came out with a small silver booklet bearing Ha Zhen’s name written in Chinese characters, which Yan Xing could recognize. The ink on the booklet shimmered in the light as if Ha Zhen had prepared it well in advance.

Ha Zhen approached the robust man and tossed the silver booklet directly to him, which Yan Xing caught with an outstretched hand.

"Leave this place quickly," Ha Zhen said.

Yan Xing nodded again. The short man called Old Hong harbored much malice toward him, but Yan Xing was not fond of him either. If it were just Old Hong alone, Yan Xing wouldn’t be afraid, but he was not confident about handling the other two.

After receiving the invitation, Yan Xing left immediately. His figure soon vanished from sight. The ugly-faced man stared as Yan Xing departed, turned to the robust man beside him, and questioned, "The mayor, their mayor?"

"Mhm, probably here to meet the boss."

"The boss mentioned it before but has yet to show up. Could that mayor be fake?"

"Who cares if he’s fake? We will find out tomorrow. Tomorrow, our brothers below are all supposed to rise up. With hundreds at Near-Heaven Level, I’m actually quite excited if that mayor turns out to be an imposter."

"Not you, Old Hong. Can’t you not rise up? There are so many crazed ones below. Just look at how many Ha Zhen has taken in."

"Hehe, you are mistaken there. Just wait, when we go back, I’ll communicate with the hive, let it halt tomorrow. With so many coming out, only a few will turn out in the end, too many and I fear Abeng won’t be able to handle it."

"Hahaha, I think Old Hong has been corrupted by hanging around with Brother Hu for too long."

"Right, what do you think the mayor wants with the boss?"

"I don’t know, but I’m sure we’re going to be busy again soon."

Time trickled past; it sped and slowed at the same time, feeling like the blink of an eye and yet ages long. The next day swiftly arrived just like usual, and Su Sigui and her companions left their temporary residence early, heading towards the "Sacred Summit."

The place where Su Sigui and her group stayed wasn’t a hotel or an inn, but someone’s house. Royal Court was a closed city with few outsiders entering, thus there were rarely any hotels or inns, and with Royal Court being so vast, Su Sigui wasn’t willing to waste precious time searching. So, they stayed in someone’s house using some Yajin coins.

The group of five got into a car, led again by the unfortunate Yan Xing, driving towards the prominent and majestic huge boulder.

"Mayor, do you think this one invitation can get all of us in?"

"It might or might not, but as long as I can get in, that’s enough."

"How can that be? What if there’s danger inside, and you are alone..."

"Don’t worry," Su Sigui said nonchalantly, shaking her head lightly. Being inside the palace alone might be dangerous, but for her, dying might even be a relief; after all, it’s just fate.

However, Su Sigui didn’t believe she would be so "unlucky." Based on what she had seen since arriving at the Royal Court, she was pretty confident about that person’s identity.

After about ten minutes, their car had already reached the "Sacred Summit."

Compared to yesterday, the place was much busier. The entrance was crowded with people, children’s playful noises, young people’s complaints from waiting too long, and some nagging adults telling their children to be careful.

It was tiring with so many people there, with fewer choosing the stairs, except for some New Humans who could quickly climb the "Sacred Summit" via the stairs, while ordinary people would need an hour!

The dense crowd almost made it seem like one was amidst a horde of zombies, a sight rarely seen in the post-apocalyptic world. Su Sigui glanced around and speculated about the lives of the people in the Royal Court.

Perhaps fewer than at Cloud Gorge Base but definitely more than in the United District. This generation, due to Ning Tianlang’s death, lacked the halo of a Level 9 New Human, so Cloud Gorge Base wasn’t the primary target for many like in the previous world. After all, Level 9 New Humans are powerful beings capable of contending with Zombie Kings.OutputStreams.

Without Level 9 Powerhouses, no matter how massive Cloud Gorge Base is or how many Level 8 New Humans it has, once encountering a Zombie King Level menace, it’s no different from other survivor bases or Sanctuary Cities.

There were too many people outside the entrance, and aside from beings that were human, who knew how many zombies disguised as humans were there. Su Sigui had already seen a few low-intelligence but human-disguised Level 6-7 zombies being led forward by some people as they moved with the crowd. Despite it not being her first time witnessing this, each time it felt incredibly strange.

Regarding the entrance, that was just one of a few points where each could swallow a large number of people at once, but that was hardly enough for such a crowd. Every time a gate opened, Su Sigui could only move forward a little.

However, it wasn’t long before someone shouted, "Those with invitations, come here! Special access is opening, priority entry for those with invitations!"
