Chapter 124: Decisive Battle!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The convoy followed behind the zombie horde.
They seemed to be sneaky and discreet, but in reality, they were thoroughly seen through by the Blood Flesh Mother Tree.
When the apocalypse arrived, human networks and communications were all cut off, and city-wide surveillance was naturally impossible.
However, the appearance of the Blood Flesh Mother Tree had reshaped this city-wide surveillance network with the Mother Tree as the core, all subsidiaries shared perception and vision.
No one knew exactly how many monsters the Blood Flesh Mother Tree had created- there were dozens of Tier 5 creatures, and who knew how many low-level ones were there?
As a result, regardless of whether Lu Ming and the others were aware of the Blood Flesh Mother Tree’s ability, they could not avoid its surveillance and tracking.
In Linhai County, the Blood Flesh Mother Tree, which sensed that Lu Ming and the others were preparing to attack, fell into deep thought again.
After some thought, the Mother Tree did not instruct the zombie horde that was being tracked to change its directions.
To a certain extent, the Blood Flesh Mother Tree was a bug in Nanxiang City and it was also the ultimate creature in Nanxiang City!
Although it had just obtained intelligence, it had already found its position in the ecosystem of Nanxiang City—the strongest!
The strongest naturally had pride, and it was not afraid of trouble from Lu Ming; instead, it felt joy and excitement at Lu Ming actively coming to its doorstep.
At the foot of the Mother Tree.
A large number of zombies, exotic beasts, and even humans were all lined up and being integrated into the fungal carpet.
They turned into nutrients. Not only did they replenish the consumption of the Mother Tree from yesterday, but also taking its abilities to a higher level!
Densely packed human heads were spread out on the branches of the Mother Tree.
The reddish branches were full of vitality.
The heads all murmured in unison.
“Come on… come on!”
“Don’t make me wait too long!”
Linhai County, near the suburbs.
The four human-headed creatures were walking towards Linhai County.
It was a rather strange combination.
The one in the lead was a Tier 5 Gris Human-Headed Monster.
Behind him were two Devourers and a human.
They were Simba, Lian Jie, and Xu Rufang, one human and two zombies.
At this moment, Xu Rufang was curled up in Lian Jie’s tentacles, not even daring to breathe.
Simba and Lian Jie, like marionettes on strings, quickly followed the human-headed monster towards Linhai County like puppets.
The story was simple.
After their last escape, Simba’s group was caught by the human-headed monster again.
Just like how Gris had suppressed them back then.
In front of the Tier 5 Gris human-headed monster, they still had no ability to resist.
At this very moment, Simba and Lian Jie were shedding tears as they were wal Icing.
They did not know the details of what would happen next, but they could guess it fairly accurately.
In short… they could forget about surviving.
At that thought, Simba could not help but feel sorrowful.
“Who the f*ck did 1 offend… It’s not my fault that 1 became a zombie. It’s not my fault that I was born smart. It’s not my fault that I can run fast! I’ve tried so hard to avoid you freaks. Why did 1 end up like this!”
Throughout Simba s life, it s really smart.
Every time he encountered a death tribulation, he could always manage to escape from death.
But this time, it probably could not escape…
Indeed, it did not make any mistakes, nor did it actively provoke any monsters, so the word “unlucky11 was the only way to describe Simba1 s situation.
While Simba was grieving, the human-headed monster in front of him suddenly stopped.
The human-headed monster let out a long roar, a pair of wings grew on its back and it flapped its wings and flew high.
It had received a signal from the Mother Tree— “a.s.semble quickly!”
As a result, it abandoned Simba and Lian Jie and returned to Linhai County as quickly as possible!
The suppression from the high-level zombie quickly disappeared.
Simba and Lian Jie regained control of their bodies.
The two Devourers looked at each other speechlessly. They really could not understand the logic behind the human-headed monster’s actions.
Until Simba vaguely saw something swaying in the distance.
Turning to take a closer look, Simba was stunned.
“Look over there!”
Lian Jie also turned around and saw the scene Simba was pointing at.
Thousands of zombies led by a Tank-headed monster were heading towards Linhai County.
Behind the zombie horde, a convoy was closely following.
Under the morning sun, Simba vaguely saw a familiar face in the convoy.
It could not help but rub its eyes hard, and soon it let out an exclamation!
“Lunatic! It’s that Lunatic!!”
After the exclamation, it quickly covered its mouth, as if it was afraid that Lu Ming would hear it.
Then, he turned around and met Lian Jie’s eyes.
The eyes of the two Devourers suddenly lit up.
Freaks fighting freaks.
This was their favorite part!
Regardless of who won or lost, as long as they fought, it would be a battle of equals! This would create some survival s.p.a.ce for them pitiful beings who only wanted to survive.
It was the first time Simba had such a desire…
It grabbed Lian Jie, who was about to escape again, and said coldly, “Let’s go and take a look this time! ”
Lian Jie said aggrievedly, “Brother, this is too risky…”
Simba was silent for a moment before shaking his head heavily, “We’ve never taken risks before, and what was the result? We re still being chased around like two wild dogs! Brother, I’ve had enough of these days! This time! Just once! Let’s go take a look! Let’s see which of these freaks can win in the end!”
Lian Jie did not understand why Simba had such thoughts.
Until his mother’s words reminded Lian Jie while it held him in its tentacles.
“If that human wins, our days ahead might be a little better.”
“But If that monster wins, we’ll probably be doomed.”
Lian Jie suddenly understood.
Looking at the convoy in the distance, Lian Jie immediately realized that the outcome of these two freaks would directly impact the fate of all creatures in Nanxiang City in the future!
Morning 8 a.m.
Lu Ming and his group arrived at their destination.
Linhai County.
The zombie horde in front, under the leadership of the human-headed monster, walked into Linhai County one by one, and disappeared without a trace.
But that was no longer important.
What was crucial was that Lu Ming and his team had already spotted their target this time!
The towering tree that reached the sky!
Vaguely recalling the words spoken by the Gris-head monster when they first encountered it.
“Mother Tree…”
Huo Sheng muttered these two words.
Lu Ming had already put on his backpack, picked up his battle sword, and hung the slingshot around his waist. Then, he strode directly towards Linhai County in the distance.
Before the others could say anything, Lu Ming spoke up.
“You all wait outside. 1’11 do it myself this time.”
After a moment of silence, everyone remained speechless.
He had no choice.
Facing a production line that could generate Level 5 creatures, anyone accompanying Lu Ming would only be a burden and a drag!
Everyone present knew this very well.
For now, all Huo Sheng and the others could do was to watch Lu Ming head into the battlefield.
Lu Ming did not have too many sentimental thoughts.
The situation was quite simple for him.
These creatures produced by the Mother Tree had been disturbing his daily life, making it hard for him to sleep well. Now, at this moment, he was here to seek an explanation!
You won’t give me an explanation!
Then I’ll give you an explanation!
It was that simple!
