Chapter 812: 809

The screams rose and fell soon after, as the soldiers at Hongtu Mountain hastily tightened their defensive circle. But as time ticked by, who knows how many were flung into the sky by those terrifying zombies, only to crash down heavily, smashed beyond recognition.

In the end, the last remaining two Level 5 zombies were killed, and the remaining Level 4 zombies, Level 3 zombies, and some low-level zombies on Hongtu Mountain were finally slaughtered.

However, just when they were about to breathe a sigh of relief, they saw dozens of large trucks brought by the Peace Party making their way out, and behind them, an endless stream of even larger trucks appeared, each covered with a big cloth that tightly concealed whatever was inside.

But with experience, there was no need to say what was inside—definitely more zombies!

At that moment, the idea of retreat sprang to the minds of the soldiers at Hongtu Mountain, but without orders, they dared not move. What was most desperate was that the Peace Party had this method of using zombies to fight for them; how long were they planning to do this?

If they were to force Hongtu Mountain to give up its resources and power, with Liao Chunsheng refusing to compromise, these soldiers were nothing but cannon fodder, never knowing when they would die in this man-made zombie tide.

To become one of those hideous zombies.

Just resisting the first wave of the engineered zombie tide had come at a great cost. Looking over at Hongtu Mountain’s side, a good dozen mechs and armored vehicles had turned into scrap metal. Without a zombie-proof wall as a barrier against the zombie tide, the human army’s sacrifice was considerable.

But this was an engineered zombie tide, who knows how many waves there were.

Liao Chunsheng of course also saw the second team of trucks closely following behind. He immediately fell silent, his body at that moment seemed to lose all strength, dazedly watching the approaching trucks.

"Manager, what do we do next? The Peace Party claimed to maintain peace with the zombies at Qinshan Base, it seems they have a way to make the zombies not attack them while using them as their cannon fodder. This can’t go on."

"Do you need to say it? Don’t I already know?"

Liao Chunsheng roared, but soon suppressed it and sat in his chair, deep in thought.

"Do we really have to surrender?"

Seeing the Peace Party’s trucks coming again in another wave, he thought this. He and Xu Hui were not the same; he wasn’t the kind who clung to power and refused to let go.

Power was certainly pleasant, but what was the point of holding on to it if one didn’t live to enjoy it? Preserving his own life was most important.

Liao Chunsheng weighed the pros and cons and immediately began to lean towards surrender. But then he recalled how Xu Hui died and what Yang Xiao had said before.

Suddenly, Liao Chunsheng felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured over his head from above, shattering all his previous thoughts. At this moment, he wondered if his fate would really be any better if he surrendered.

Xu Hui was dead, his wife and four kids were brutally killed at home, a brutal act that directly breached human ethical limits, and the ferocity of the Chairman of the Peace Party, Li Henian, who cared for no consequences, the Six Commissioners might issue orders of execution without leaving any room for mercy.

Carefully considered, the Six Commissioners dared to kill; did they lack Liao Chunsheng?

"No way, I have to leave!"

Remembering these thoughts, Liao Chunsheng changed his mind, suddenly siding with the previous thoughts of Xu Hui, but quickly, the door was kicked open by someone, and a stranger appeared.

"Who’s there?"

"Your assassin."

The visitor wore an external skeletal battle suit, dragging two corpses in his hand. He tossed them aside casually after entering, while Liao Chunsheng narrowed his eyes and reached for the laser weapon on the table.

"From the Peace Party."

"Of course, Commander, no no no, now it should be Manager Lord, looking very impressive!"

"How did you get in here?"

"How else? Obviously, by killing my way in. Your men are really useless, disposed of so easily."

At this point, Liao Chunsheng lifted the laser weapon on the table in front of him, aiming the emitter at the newcomer, his expression dark.

"Bai Huipeng!"

"It seems the curator knows me."

The person was none other than Bai Huipeng, who had evolved into a Level 5 New Human. Hearing Liao Chunsheng say his name, he seemed very surprised.

"One of the top generals under the Chairman of the Peace Party, who doesn’t know you, you tell me, right?"

Liao Chunsheng said with a smile, though the laser weapon in his hand somewhat spoiled the mood.

"The curator can still joke with me at this time, it seems you’re no ordinary person. However, I’m very curious about what you’re thinking now."

Bai Huipeng moved around as if he were in his own home, touching this and that, completely unafraid of the laser weapon in Liao Chunsheng’s hand that was ready to fire.

"Actually, I’ve thought a lot about this issue just now. With the battle at this point, if I say I surrender, would the Peace Party let me go?"

"What do you think?"

Bai Huipeng said with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

"Not?" Liao Chunsheng straightened his body, waiting for Bai Huipeng’s answer.

The other party shook his head, and this gesture made Liao Chunsheng’s eyes light up; he nearly jumped up.

"What!"

"What’s the hurry, Lord Curator?"

"Sorry, sorry, I got too excited."

"No problem, Curator Liao is indeed a clever man; seems your time as a legion commander wasn’t in vain."

"Too kind, too kind."

Seeing Bai Huipeng’s shake of the head, Liao Chunsheng felt a breath of fresh air. Indeed, preserving his life felt immensely relieving.

Although he had been pointing the laser weapon at Bai Huipeng, the opponent was a powerful Level 5 New Human—whether the attack of the laser weapon could outpace the opponent’s reaction he himself wasn’t sure, as his own life was at stake.

This feeling was terrible.

However, luckily Bai Huipeng shook his head; it seemed the Peace Party wouldn’t kill him.

But just as Liao Chunsheng breathed a sigh of relief, Bai Huipeng’s next sentence nearly choked him!

"Curator guessed right, the Peace Party will not let you go!"

"You... "

Liao Chunsheng froze on the spot, then the next second hurriedly raised the laser weapon toward Bai Huipeng, but right after saying this, Bai Huipeng moved!

"What were you thinking? We had already given you a chance, and you did not cherish it. Now that the battle is decided, you want to renege? Curator, there’s no such thing as a regret medicine in this world! So, go to hell!"

"Damn it!"

Liao Chunsheng cursed angrily, activating the laser weapon! A ray tore through the air, but Bai Huipeng moved like a specter, swiftly dodging to one side, then rushed toward Liao Chunsheng like a long rainbow!

"Curator! Go to your death with your beloved power! Those who resist the Peace Party must die!"

Boom!
