Chapter 273: Episode 25.4 The Return Of The Undead

A scene from a zombie film starts to unfold before Wu Jin and the others.

"Sh—! We already killed them inside the dungeon, but why are they still moving?!"

"Undead bloodhounds?! You’ve got to be kidding me!"

Panicked yells flew all over the place. Understandably, most of the people present are flustered as it is their first time actually encountering an undead creature created by necromancy. The only undead they know until now is F-Class Skeleton monsters, and they are super rare in Country C, so imagine the shock it brought them when dead monsters with no resurrection background suddenly rise up from the dead.

Not to mention, they just watched the entire station ceiling collapse over them minutes ago.

Most of the hunters and agents lost their composure. However, not the select few who already had experience dealing with such problems.

"Roar—!" One undead bloodhound suddenly pounced at one unprepared Dungeon Management agent, but unfortunately for it, a lightning-fast spear skewered it at the last minute, effectively splitting it in half.

"Li An!" The agent breathlessly uttered his savior’s name.

"Don’t just stand there and do everything to incapacitate them!" The alpha said, recalling his beloved spear back to his hand. "But if you can thoroughly destroy them!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Multiple gunshots are heard from the other side, where Gu Jinpeng is crouching with his trusted sniper in hand. With the instigation of these two, the hunters and agents managed to regain their bearings and fight back.

"Your subordinates are quite capable," Admiral Wu Jin told Shen Yuan. Of course, being a seasoned S-class awakener, Shen Yuan and Wu Jin effortlessly dealt with the nearby undead bloodhound.

The alpha was shocked, but his senses, which had been trained by the military, made it easy for him to react when undead bloodhounds started attacking them.

"I filtered everyone, so I know that. Thanks." Shen Yuan’s reply came almost immediately. From his arms, he put his son on his shoulders and guided the little boy to hold onto his head. "Daddy will be a bit busy from now on. Behave yourself in the meantime, okay?"

"Okay," Yanyan nodded, then grabbed the celestial fox spirit’s fluffy ears, startling the latter.

"!" Shen Yuan reflexively straightened his spine but didn’t stop the boy. His fox ears are one of his sensitive parts, but for Yanyan’s happiness, he is willing to touch them.

"These undead dogs are being controlled by necromancer-like puppets on a string. Cutting them into big pieces will not guarantee them to stop attacking. Necromancers can use even a torn limb to attack. The best way to get rid of them was to destroy them without leaving anything useable," Shen Yuan told Wu Jin.

The alpha admiral has no problems obliterating the bloodhound’s corpses, but he is more concerned about others around him. Not everyone is a high-class awakener capable of shredding the bloodhounds with their offensive powers.

"Are there any other attacks that work? One that requires less power output but is very effective?"

Shen Yuan conjured three small heavenly foxfires and fired them at a group of bloodhounds.

Boom!

And they are gone.

Wu Jin immediately thought fire attacks were effective, but Shen Yuan quickly corrected that. "Holy-attribute attacks work easily against necromancy. It effortlessly cuts off the strings of the necromancer."

Admiral Wu Jin paused. He didn’t know Shen Yuan had such rare power. Holy-attribute powers are in the 0.1 percentile of awakened powers. It is so rare that it is possible for active hunters not to meet one owner in their lifetime.

Even in his Wu family, no one has a holy-attribute power despite them being blessed by the mythical Black Tortoise. Thus, except Shen Yuan, he can’t count on anyone else.

"But there is an easier path. Beat the necromancer." Shen Yuan said matter-of-factly. He knew about the rarity of the holy attribute of awakened powers, which is why he presented the best solution.

He made it sound easy, but this situation will be challenging. Tracking the whereabouts of that pink-haired bitch is already challenging in this urban jungle. He could follow the mana strings of necromancy, but that doesn’t make the search easy since his opponent can shapeshift into a cat.

And everyone knows how fluid cats are. The city has a lot of narrow spaces where they can hide.

Wu Jin was silent momentarily before speaking, "Then, leave the undead bloodhounds to me."

The alpha conjured two water swords in both hands. The water in these weapons is moving wildly, and they create a frightening sound. "I will grind them up so good, they will be nothing but a pool of blood at the end of the day."

"Then I will search for that son of a— cat and beat his ass," Shen Yuan said, quickly omitting the bad word for the sake of his son sitting on his shoulders.

"Are you going to send Yanyan away?" Wu Jin asked Shen Yuan. The situation became too dangerous for children. If he is Shen Yuan, he will send Yanyan away for safety.

But to his surprise, the omega’s answer differed from his expectation.

"Send him away where? My in-laws are out of town, and Chairman Mao is surely busy. I don’t have anyone strong enough to babysit him. Besides, with the chaos that’s happening, how sure are we that kidnapping my son is not their main goal? They tried it once so they could try again the second time," Shen Yuan comfortingly touched his boy’s back. "He’s the safest when he’s with me. Don’t worry about it."

Yanyan hugged his Daddy’s head, "Daddy’s right! Also, Papa said that I should watch how Daddy works. Papa said he doesn’t want the smiling uncles to approach my Daddy."

Shen Yuan smiled stiffly. That’s T.M.I. Yanyan! "I will show you how powerful your Daddy is, Yanyan."

And as if supporting his statement, the five foxfire beasts chirped one after another.

Wu Jin looked at them for a moment, not saying anything. Never mind the revelation that Bai Tingfeng is a jealous husband. That’s kind of within his expectations.

He’s curious about these five cute little foxes, but since it isn’t the right time to ask that question, he just said, "Okay. That’s your call. Keep safe."

Leaving the matters here in the capable hands of Wu Jin, Shen Yuan, and Yanyan flew away. He also instructed his foxfire beasts to grab Gu Jinpeng since he needed the man for something more substantial.

"Your sniping skills are too weak to deal with those undead mutts. I need you to do something else," Shen Yuan explained to his assistant.

The poor man is flying beside the father and son, all four limbs and collar being held by the foxfire beast’s fangs.

Gu Jinpeng’s heart is pressing against his ribcage for fear that he will slip down and fall to his death. He tried his best not to move, like a dead fish stuck between the seagull’s beaks. "W-what is it, Master Shen?"

"I need your wide vision to keep an eye on something."

To corner that pink-haired bitch, it doesn’t necessarily need to scour every alley of the city. The Cardinals don’t stop after causing one incident. Having lofty ambitions, they are annoyingly persistent. They must be staging another accident. He needs to be in the right place at the right time.

Therefore, he must think like them and match their pace.

Shen Yuan and his little group returned to the shopping district to see how things were going. He left Gu Jinpeng on a building rooftop to be his eye and inform him if there was anything suspicious nearby.

The celestial fox spirit concocted a good plan. However, he seemed late since the abandoned shopping district descended into chaos.

The tens of thousands of goblin corpses are currently wreaking havoc. Compared to the incident in the subway, the situation here is slightly out of control. The confusion and the overwhelming number of undead goblins clogged the original seamless operation.

Many low-level agents are injured because of the ambush, making the celestial fox spirit to be slightly distressed.

This isn’t good! The scope of trouble this Cardinals are cooking up is bigger than the previous ones. He’s getting an ominous feeling about it.

"Master Shen!" Hu Feng immediately broke into a sprint upon seeing the arrival of his omega boss. "We’re sorry if we failed to protect the dungeon. The goblins just..."

The beta, who is typically in control of his emotions, showed a crack at this moment. If it weren’t for Qin Mian’s quick reaction, their situation would be more dire. He can’t believe his response lagged behind the newbie despite familiarizing himself with the report of what happened in the Rong Shen Villa. His mishap caused him to be late in collecting their forces, endangering the agents and hunters under his command.

"I understand," Shen Yuan reassured his subordinate. "Don’t let this mistake get you. Don’t worry, I will sort this out in no time."

The celestial fox spirits issued an urgent order for the entire forces to retreat. While he and Yanyan took a step forward, facing the charging undead goblins. Orbs of heavenly foxfire and lightning blossomed behind his tail.

"Look closely here, Yanyan. I will show you the might of your fox Daddy!" Shen Yuan said before letting out an attack that shook everyone up.
