I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World

Chapter 1310: Chapter 1305: Surprised?

Besides that, the mother nest’s duty was to produce a large number of Level 4 or higher zombies every day. The level of the mother nest itself was unclear to Tang Ye. It seemed, the larger the mother nest, the more zombies it could produce.

From the first encounter with the mother nest until now, it produced at least ten thousand zombies daily, each being Level 4 or higher. Sometimes, it even directly produced a Level 8 zombie, though such instances were rare; Tang Ye had only encountered this once or twice.

In the world of the mother nest, the constant mutual slaughter of zombies left behind masses of corpses every day. These did not require human intervention to clean up, as the mother nest would automatically absorb them and transform them into its own nutrients. The resulting Evolution Crystals were partly spoils of war rightful to the zombies of the mother nest world after their battles, while another part had to be handed over, managed by Abeng.

It could be said that the hundred-layered interior world of the mother nest was completely different from the surface’s Royal Court—one, a world full of happiness and joy, an infinite paradise, and the other, a dark hell overshadowed by the Zombie King where the sun was never seen and filled with slaughter and desire!

Perhaps those in the know might find Tang Ye’s methods cruel.

But zombies and humans were entirely different, not all zombies naturally restrained their nature like Ha Zhen, Gert, and Xu Haishui. If humans tried to manage all zombies their way, it would not be long before the Royal Court turned completely into a land of zombies!

This approach was a necessity. At the same time, it also provided for his own and other high-level zombies’ basic needs like those of the Level 8. Just based on this alone, Tang Ye could not possibly be kind!

It seemed that only this was the most suitable societal cycle for the zombie species. Otherwise, why would there be a mother nest?

For the zombies within the mother nest world, Tang Ye was like a malevolent god overseeing everything, demanding a heavy daily tribute to sustain himself. Of course, from time to time, those Level 8 zombies attempted rebellion, but the mother nest was his second-generation silver-armored corpse, and he had absolute control over it. After the appearance of the first rebel, at his behest, the mother nest no longer produced silver-armored corpses. Such rebels were quickly killed by Abeng’s men, turning into that "tribute."

Of these tributes, at least one-fifth were devoured by Tang Ye himself each year, the rest going to the high-level zombies of Levels 8 to 6 living in the Royal Court.

Isn’t this indicative of the Level 9 zombie’s demand for vitality?

Tang Ye did not know if other Level 9 zombies, like him, used mother nests to create a dark world for zombies and sustained themselves with their Evolution Crystals. If not, their widespread attacks on human bases and Sanctuary Cities were within expectations.

After all, only by doing so could their vast needs be met.

Now, on the Lan Ou Continent, every living being was probably already devoured. Though they could consume their own kind to maintain vitality, without a mother nest, it was not a long-term solution. Soon, the Zombie King of Lan Ou Continent became restless, turning his attention to the Chinese Continent where seven hundred million people were concentrated. For other continent’s Zombie Kings, the Chinese Continent, closest to the Nightmare Zombie King and easier to reach, made it a likely target.

As for everything Xu Haishui had expressed, Tang Ye was not particularly interested. Ah Fu and he had not found a way to evolve to Level 9. Perhaps the Evolution Crystal of a Level 9 Zombie King could allow them to reach Level 9, which made Tang Ye even more curious about what color the Level 9 Zombie King’s Evolution Crystal would be.

"Bring over its corpse," Tang Ye responded to Xu Haishui’s message and then began waiting for reinforcements from the Cloud Gorge Base.

"Okay."

Xu Haishui responded for the last time, waved his hand, and Gert together with his group promptly picked up segments of the corpse of the demonic sound zombie. The group quickly disappeared from the site, leaving behind a mess.

Over at Tang Ye’s location, the powerhouses of Bright Moon City successively returned. Their support gave the people of Bright Moon City a chance to counterattack. They had escaped from their own pursuers and those Level 8 powerhouses from the Cloud Gorge Base.

Seeing Tang Ye, their faces showed astonishment. The person they thought had disappeared had reappeared before them, and they assumed he had died.

"Li Henian, he’s still alive?"

"What sort of people are they?"

"Do you see that, is that Huang Quanjiu? He was a top figure in the old Peace Party."

"It really does seem to be Li Henian. Why is he helping us?"

"Maybe... he and the chairman are old acquaintances," some members of Bright Moon City powerhouses said, somewhat uncertain.

They approached Tang Ye and his group, nodded as a form of greeting, many also covertly scrutinizing Li Henian, confirming his identity as the former overlord of South China United District from three years ago!

Once all the powerhouses of Bright Moon City were notified to return to Changyuan City, Xu Haishui and his party also returned from Qizhen City.

"Boss, this is the zombie I was talking about."

Gert dumped the chunks of the corpse he carried on his shoulder onto the ground and attempted to piece it back together from memory, managing to somewhat resemble its original form. He pointed at it, saying. By then, they had reverted to human forms, appearing nearly normal.

The body hit the ground with a loud "thump." At the sound, the returned powerhouses from Bright Moon City gathered around. They only needed one glance before their expressions turned somber—obviously recognizing the corpse of the zombie as one of the royal zombies from Lan Ou Continent!

"A demonic sound zombie? This type of zombie appeared in Qizhen City?"

"Can you tell who this guy is?" another powerhouse from Bright Moon City asked. As he spoke, he instinctively looked at Tang Ye and then at others within the Royal Court,his brow slightly furrowing.

"What’s with their expressions? Aren’t they surprised?"

The expressions that appeared on the Royal Court’s crowd puzzled him. Demonic sound zombies, like silver-armored zombies, were characteristic of the Chinese Continent, and in Lan Ou Continent, such demonic sound zombies were also distinctive!

Now that the Chinese Continent had become humanity’s last place of survival, the presence of a Zombie King’s species in these territories contained a lot of information!

In other continents, once a survivor base encounters a zombie of the same type as a Zombie King, it is likely that this zombie has shared visuals with that Zombie King, a chilling and rather disturbing thought!
