Chapter 414: Chapter 411 He Comes_1

In a brief interlude, the four of them silently agreed not to pay any more attention to Jin Liudong. One of them said, "Zoom in on the view."

As soon as he finished speaking, the drone began to approach the grim reaper zombie, and the screen’s perspective began to magnify, showing every inch of its skin to the six people watching.

As the drone drew closer, the sound of the four rotors spinning became louder. The grim reaper zombie quickly sensed this and turned around sharply. Its completely black eyes stared fixedly at the camera, its nose twitched violently a couple of times, but it didn’t smell any food.

On the other side of the camera, all six people went blank at the sight of its eyes, as if their souls had been forcibly led away.

It took them a while to come back to their senses, their eyes filled with terror.

"What just happened?"

"I feel like my mind just went blank and I couldn’t think of anything!"

"Me too!"

"Those eyes... are somehow..."

"..."

In that moment, all five high-ranking base leaders in the screen lost their usual aura, staring in horror at the grim reaper zombie slowly turning its head in the drone footage.

Its eyes were black, but that alone couldn’t fully describe them. They were like an abyss, sucking you in with just one glance. They struggled to put it into words. If they had to describe the feeling, it would be akin to the vacant color one sees when looking into a blind person’s eyes.

Oppression, panic, despair, pain, and more filled their hearts as they looked into its eyes.

After one look, no one wanted a second glance!

At that moment, all six people, including the drone operator, firmly believed that the eyes of the grim reaper zombie could indeed kill. It was just that being separated by a screen, it didn’t cause any exaggerated harm, so it wasn’t as exaggerated as the rumors said.

After they had fully come to their senses, the five VIPs on the screen showed greed in their eyes.

This was a Level 5 zombie. Obtaining its Evolution Crystal meant that a new Level 5 New Human would emerge!

Although using an Evolution Crystal to evolve a New Human had some drawbacks, such flaws were insignificant to those desperate for immense power!

Aside from Jin Liudong, the other four quickly retracted their avarice and glanced at him warily.

After the Qinshan Base incident, they understood what kind of person Jin Liudong was.

Jin Liudong was the leader of the Pingnan Base. Apart from his personality, one could tell what he was like from the way he managed the Pingnan Base.

The Pingnan Base was arguably the most chaotic among the six major bases. Filled with all kinds of factions, bloodshed and killings were rampant!

Furthermore, a new profession had emerged in the base - body collectors. These weren’t good people. Although they seemed to casually collect bodies out of boredom, they collected these bodies for sale.

Different parts of a body would fetch different prices, measured by weight. This allowed some people to survive. As for where these bodies were sold and how they were used, no one knew.

Only by living in the Pingnan Base for some time could one fully understand the magnitude of its chaos.

What made the four leaders wary of Jin Liudong were the troops he had buried in the Qinshan Base to deal with the Pseudo-dragon.

This was extremely terrifying. In two days, these soldiers had completely taken control of the Qinshan Base, killing most of the original soldiers. Those who survived had to take refuge in Pingnan.

In the next month, the once well-governed Qinshan base turned into a second Pingnan Base under Chen Huaijiang. Now, the person in charge of the Qinshan Base was Chen Huaijiang’s secretary, Li Songhua!

Besides, Li Songhua made it known that he belonged to Jin Liudong.

How could this not make them wary? Nobody could guarantee that there weren’t any people installed by Jin Liudong in their own bases. If they took action first, they might suffer the same fate as Chen Huaijiang!

Seeing the wary looks of the others, Jin Liudong forced a bitter smile, but his eyes were filled with the possibility of a violent eruption.

This feeling of isolation was truly annoying!

Having learned their lesson from before, the drone distanced itself from the grim reaper zombie and hovered motionless in mid-air.

The VIPs on the screen started making their own plans. At this moment, the fighting intent in Su Sigui grew stronger and stronger, her body trembling more violently.

She sensed it. That aura!

He was coming! He was on his way! He was actually on his way!

Getting closer and closer!

Her heart beat violently. She instinctively gripped the handles of her blade and sword. The two behind her grew tense, too.

The surrounding air seemed to solidify, and the boy adopted a combat stance.

As time went on, the air seemed to solidify into a liquid, making everyone’s breathing especially heavy.

A quiet environment, teeming zombies below, the two could only hear Su Sigui’s heart beats.

Thump! Thump! Thump...

Crystal clear and pounding like a heavy hammer strike! The boy and Yan Xing’s bodies started trembling, and their hearts beat wildly.

"The Zombie King... What is the Zombie King? What would it look like?"

The two kept fantasizing about the Zombie King that Su Sigui mentioned and their foreheads bulged with veins due to intense tension.

The air thickened, changing from liquid to almost solid state, making their breaths harder and harder to draw!

As the seconds ticked away, the two started counting aloud.

One second!

Two seconds!

Three seconds!

Four seconds!

Every second passed quickly, but it felt incredibly long to them - as if every second was an eternity.

Just when they were feeling overwhelmed, and their hearts were about to burst, Su Sigui spoke.

"Xu Tianyu, have the six groups return, aside from the Third Group, and all personnel... prepare for battle!"

Her words were like a warm spring breeze blowing over their hearts, causing the boy named Xu Tianyu to relax his tense heart and his breaths to return to normal. He nodded and then departed.
