I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 415 - 412: One Mistake_1

Chapter 415: Chapter 412: One Mistake_1

After Xu Tianyu left, Su Sigui’s body relaxed, and she took a deep breath, her furrowed brows spreading out in an instant.

She suddenly realized she had made a big mistake — she was too tense!

The appearance of the drone made her think the Zombie King would emerge soon, and she was haunted by a misleading sense of his approach. The specter of him was deeply etched in her mind, irretrievably remembered.

Her fear of him reached an unprecedented high, accompanied by overwhelming readiness for the battle.

The profound terror and elevated combativeness created a paradox which rendered her incapable of thinking, similar to the disbelief of a poor person who suddenly wins a lottery. But unlike them, she felt only disbelief and no joy.

The misleading idea of "he is coming" plagued Su Sigui’s heart, inducing unprecedented tension and affecting the others.

Once she regained a moment of clarity, Su Sigui immediately realized that if she continued to feel like this, she’d be riddled with flaws during the battle with the Zombie King, perhaps even underperforming.

With great effort, she worked to calm her mind, thus having Xu Tianyu prepare.

Her earlier tension had caused her to forget the preparations she was supposed to make.

No one in either her previous life or the current one had ever tried to fight the Zombie King without relying on advanced technology.

Moreover, battling the Zombie King wasn’t as simple as fighting one on one. As soon as the King appeared, a single thought would undoubtedly draw tens of thousands of zombies, which was not a laughing matter.

If minor details were overlooked before then, she would eventually face the Zombie King alone amidst boundless hordes of zombies!

"Mayor...we..."

Yan Xing, wiping the sweat off his forehead due to tension, said to Su Sigui.

Su Sigui waved dismissively, cutting him off and asked, "Get someone to brew a cup of tea. We can’t rush...By the way, have all the half-zombies arrived yet?"

At the mention of half-zombies, Yan Xing perked up and quickly responded, "They are all here!"

"How many?"

"Only... only six hundred."

"So few?" Su Sigui furrowed her eyebrows, and Yan Xing’s face instantly crumpled.

"Mayor, it’s impossible to produce so many in such a short time. Moreover, almost all the Evolution Crystals..."

Yan Xing stopped midway, fearing that Su Sigui would incorrectly interpret it as him shirking his responsibility onto the mayor.

Meanwhile, Su Sigui, aware of some reasons, didn’t mind. Evolving to Level 6 wasn’t such an easy task. This was just the third year of post-apocalypse. Her strength as a Level 6 New Human already ranked her as a world-class powerhouse.

Probably all the Level 6 creatures in the world combined wouldn’t exceed the number of her fingers!

The appearance of the first Level 6 New Human was recorded three months later. Now that she had evolved to Level 6, do you know how many Evolution Crystal Cores and Evolution Crystals she had consumed?

All the Evolution Crystal Cores and Evolution Crystals that the entire City of Bright Moon had collected were used to feed her, with the leftovers given to Xu Tianyu.

In the apocalypse, attributes like ability weren’t essential to a superior. The most crucial thing in their eyes was one’s loyalty. And the person who proved loyal to Su Sigui was the youth Xu Tianyu, which was why she had paid a massive price to elevate him to Level 6.

"Alright."

Su Sigui entered the tent that was set up. Yan Xing, looking like a bootlicker, poured her a cup of tea.

She took a small sip, and the tensed expression in Su Sigui’s eyes gradually relaxed, the previous tension dissipating. Xu Tianyu’s voice could also be heard from the walkie-talkie.

"All units listen up, apart from Third Group in C Zone, all other five teams return to your squads!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"..."

Responses quickly sounded from the walkie-talkie. But after a while, a weird noise came from it.

"This is the Sixth Group, we are currently...Oh no!"

Groan! Giggling...

"Run! Someone got infected!"

"Over there..."

"Run! He...He turned zombie!"

"Quick!"

Bang!

Whoosh!

Sizzling...

Listening to the chaos over the walkie-talkie from the Sixth Group, Su Sigui frowned, and Xu Tianyu quickly asked, "What happened to Sixth Group, respond immediately if you hear this!"

Beep beep beep...

After quite a while, someone finally picked up.

"This situation is terrible, Minister! Someone here has turned into a zombie. He was wounded by a zombie but didn’t tell us anything!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Tianyu’s face turned extremely grim.

"Damn it!"

He cursed out loud. At the same time, a loud explosion sounded from a nearby building, and a ball of fire blasted open. The sound boomed like thunder in the quiet surroundings, instantly attracting the attention of the Death God Zombie.

The drone swiftly adjusted its trajectory, its camera focusing on the building where the anomaly occurred.

Groan! Hum!

The Death God Zombie turned its eerie eyes in that direction, roaring loudly. In an instant, it turned into a bolt of black lightning.

Roar!

The building’s door was smashed to pieces in the next second, as countless zombies roared and charged in.

"Go!"

After a while, two people jumped out from the side of the window, landing steadily on the ground. The way they moved made it clear that they were New Humans.

Following them, a squat, Level 3 evolved zombie with five or six arms also jumped out.

When it landed on the ground, before it could chase after the two people, another silhouette jumped out, holding a knife in a reverse grip, driving it fiercely into the zombie’s head!

"Get going!"

Clearly, the person wielding the knife was also a New Human, and likely a Level 3 New Human at that!

"Get ready to switch the test data."

After seeing this scene, Su Sigui and the unmanned drone captured it, and on the other end of the terminal, a man casually commented.

A man with the surname Liu said ’dead’ in a flat tone, pressing a button on the operation panel, and the data on the monitor instantly changed.

"It’s a Level 3 New Human!"

Seeing this data, the five important people were somewhat unmoved. They didn’t expect to encounter a Level 3 New Human here at the City Center.

In any large base, such a person would be a major asset!

The eyes of the five were full of various complex emotions: regret, pity, and a trace of indifference.

After the Level 3 New Human and the other two Level 2 New Humans emerged, they directly faced a sea of zombies. Soon after, some ordinary humans appeared, but it didn’t take long before that Death God Zombie circled back and chased them.

It swung the sickle in its hand and immediately knocked several ordinary humans off their feet. Then it flashed its body and appeared in front of them.

Cackle...

Lifting the sickle in its hand, under the gaze of the desperate ordinary human, the blade cruelly descended!

Roar!

Surprisingly, while everyone thought that the Death God Zombie would slash the man to death with its sickle, the blade of its sickle opened wide like a big mouth, revealing terrifying, robust fangs within!

Splat!
