I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 1311 - 1306: Following the Tide

Chapter 1311: Chapter 1306: Following the Tide

Even now in the Chinese Continent, encountering a silver-armored zombie somewhere, if it’s above Level 6, the first thought isn’t to kill it to obtain the red Evolution Crystal within its brain but to choose to flee. The reason is the term "visual sharing"—this ability is not so uncommon. On the contrary, many Level 8 zombies possess such a skill, let alone those legendary Level 9 beings?

Those people, led by Xu Haishui, who killed such a zombie—aren’t they afraid their actions have been seen by the Zombie King, and thus they’ll be retaliated against?

You must know, this is a Level 8 zombie, not the common Level 5 that you find everywhere. Although they’ve encountered quite a few Level 8 zombies, that’s because of their own standings, so they often deal with such ranks. It’s a necessity. If they were ordinary people, the highest rank they would likely encounter would be Level 2, and even coming across a Level 3 zombie or any hostile person or creature out in the wild would be disastrous for them!

This is no joke. The existence of Level 8 may sound numerous, but in reality, whether human or zombie, Level 8s are extremely rare. Out of the 700 million population on the Chinese Continent, the total number of documented Level 8 New Humans is less than five hundred. What a rare proportion that is.

And for the Zombie King, Level 8 zombies are also a precious existence. Even a single death is a huge loss!

To have killed such a being, and moreover in the Chinese Continent, not having visual sharing is a small probability.

They didn’t believe that the Royal Court folks wouldn’t have thought of this—it might be that they don’t know what kind of entity the Zombie King is, although the likelihood of that is slim. What the Zombie King is, if nobody knew, that really would be strange. Survivor bases of humankind are scattered throughout the Chinese Continent. As long as one is alive, one can learn of such matters from any of those survivor bases.

Perhaps, people like Gert and Xu Haishui felt invincible.

Seeing their expressions, the people of Bright Moon City thought the latter was more likely.

But why would that be?

Thoughts flickered through the minds of many, and some cast glances toward Li Henian...

Zombies can evolve to Level 9 and earn the title of Zombie King. Could humans evolve to Level 9 as well? But up to now, there hasn’t been any news of even one Level 9, not even a whisper!

The aura emanating from the present Li Henian was very odd, barely discernible like that of a New Human. He seemed like an ordinary person who was chronically weak, who might fall ill and die suddenly at any moment!

Yet three years ago, Li Henian was a renowned powerhouse across the Chinese Continent, one of the dominant overlords, and one of those standing at the very pinnacle of the human evolution path. Three years have passed; what level had he reached now?

To say he was an ordinary person, they would never believe it—New Humans don’t suffer internal injuries. All wounds heal over time, and the only harm they could suffer, aside from emotional ones, is due to bad luck. For example, having limbs chopped off and not regrowing them, resulting in a disability.

Under normal circumstances, as long as wounds weren’t fatal, the person would either die or heal over time!

But what was going on in this case?

A few people observed the wounds of the Demon Sonic Zombie for a while and wore expressions of surprise. This dead Level 8 zombie was the only one they had seen with its body intact.

Although this zombie’s corpse had been sliced into several parts, with some sections smashed into a pulp, it could still be described as intact. Because Level 8 zombies can transfer their Evolution Crystals, they are hard to kill—unless one has the luck to smash their Evolution Crystal with a single strike. Otherwise, given the chance, these Level 8 zombies would escape!

In the past, those Level 8 zombies they hunted, every single one of them had to be turned into mush before they could successfully retrieve the Evolution Crystal from the corpses.

One of the women stood up first and looked toward Ha Zhen, asking, "Do you know of a power called visual sharing?"

Ha Zhen looked at the woman, nodded, and replied calmly, "I know."

The woman didn’t know what to say next, just nodded, and it seemed that Ha Zhen and his fellows were indeed invincible. They looked at Li Henian again and the powerhouses of Bright Moon City fell silent.

Then Ah Fu asked, "Hey, what are you going to do next? Just wait here?"

Upon hearing Ah Fu’s words, Xu Tianyu and the others exchanged glances, then his gaze turned to the pale and sleeping Su Sigui. He shook his head, "We don’t know. In principle, we should escape the pursuit and regroup back in the capital, but now that you’ve appeared..."

Xu Tianyu’s speech paused. Tang Ye, with so many Level 8 powerhouses from the Royal Court, disrupted the pursuit from Cloud Gorge Base and threw them into confusion. Before this moment, it never crossed their minds that outside assistance would arrive.

"Now... we can only wait for the mayor to wake up."

"So, just wait for her here?" Tang Ye then said.

The people from City of Bright Moon didn’t respond, but Yan Xing turned his gaze toward him, the meaning in his eyes very clear.

All this depended on what Tang Ye would do next. The zombies and people from the Northern Empire clearly followed this former overlord of South China. It’s impossible that a person like him would bring so many strong individuals to Cloud Gorge Base just to assist the City of Bright Moon.

If you count both zombies and New Humans, there are already one hundred thirty-one gathered here. With such a force, overpowering Cloud Gorge Base would be easy. Not to say they could capture it entirely, but seizing a significant portion would not be a problem. The total number of Level 8 New Humans in the Cloud Gorge Base before, including the powerhouses of City of Bright Moon, amounted to one hundred forty. Excluding those from City of Bright Moon, there were also one hundred and two left. As for the Order Defenders, the number is not widely known; maybe it’s scarce, maybe more.

The Level 8 New Humans currently aligned with City of Bright Moon, one died in the fight that just took place, leaving only twenty-one who are now hardly able to resist Cloud Gorge Base. From the fact that Tang Ye helped them, whatever he intends to do, at least one point was confirmed: his interests won’t clash with their own, or else he wouldn’t have rescued Su Sigui.

Therefore, the remaining decision for the strong individuals of City of Bright Moon is easy to guess—it’s to ally with the zombies and New Humans of the Northern Empire.
