“Will you accept me if I killed the zombie emperor, Miss. Lu?” Gao Haoyun smiled a wicked smile while looking at Lin Qiao greedily from head to toe.
“Chief Gao Haoyun, abandoning Heilong Base seems not to affect you at all. You still have the mood to flirt with a pretty lady,” Lan Lu laughed as he looked at Gao Haoyun with a weird expression.
Gao Haoyun paused briefly, then gave a faint smile and responded, “I do care about my base, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s already occupied by zombies, does it?”
No matter how upset he was, he would not write that on his face to show it to the others.
“As far as I know, even though Heilong Base was broken by the ma.s.sive zombie attack, another leader saved the survivors in your base after you left. He is still fighting now. Have you thought about going back?” Lan Lu blinked and asked.
Vaguely, he was judging Gao Haoyun for abandoning his people, and also asking him if he would go back to help them.
“Even if I want to go back, I don’t think Du kunsheng wants me back. After all, the zombie emperor might have his eyes on me. I’d probably lead him back to Heilong Base,” Gao Haoyun snorted coldly.
The group of people needed to pay close attention to the surrounding area, so they wouldn’t miss any possible move of the zombie emperor. Therefore, none of them went to rest, and only took naps in turns.
They were all high-leveled superpowered beings. Being supported by their energies, they could stay awake and energetic for one, or even two months.
The buildings nearby had all been commandeered as temporary resting places for the injured soldiers and superpowered fighters to rest and heal. Si Kongchen ordered his people to clean a living room, then put in some chairs for the group of base leaders to sit and rest.
The group of people stayed up the whole night, yet the thunder zone never showed up.
At that moment, Mo Yan was sitting on top of a building located tens of miles away from Huaxia Base. He was in a very bad condition. He had no idea that a group of people was waiting for him to lose control again, but the presence of Wu Chengyue and Lin Qiao made him alert.
Before when he lost control of his power, he wasn’t afraid of the enemies, because anyone who tried to approach him would die under his lightning power. But now, things had changed. The leader from Sea City Base wasn’t afraid of lightning power.
If he lost control again, the Sea City Base leader might take the opportunity to approach him and threaten his life.
Therefore, he had to keep himself under control.
However, he wasn’t able to do that. Not even the female zombie’s power could ease his frenzy. For that very reason, he moved far away from Huaxia Base before he lost control. In that way, Si Kongchen and his people wouldn’t spot him so quickly even if he did lose control of himself again.
He leaned against the wall of the stair room with his legs stretched and head dropped to his chest.
One wouldn’t be able to see his face, but could tell from his clenched fists that he was enduring some kind of pain. The blood veins on his neck had started twisting again, and had covered his entire face.
The female zombie was squatting by his side with one hand on his shoulder. Her pretty face wore a slight frown as she was trying her best to send her power into Mo Yan’s body.
“Roar…” Mo Yan uttered deep growls from his throat that sounded very pained.
At dawn, the female zombie suddenly had her expression change, then pulled back her hand and flashed away from Mo Yan.
“Roar…” Mo Yan raised his head and uttered a roar with a ferocious look. A series of rumbling thunder was heard.
A disordered wave of lightning bolts immediately fell from the sky and landed on the surrounding buildings. In the next second, dark clouds started rolling in the sky. Lightning bolts flashed across the clouds, then descended like heavy rain, wave after wave. Within a blink, thousands of lightning bolts fell from the sky and devastated the entire area.
The female zombie dodged fast. She swiftly moved to about eight hundred meters away from Mo Yan, both her hair and clothing turning messy.
After that, she raised her purely dark eyes and expressionlessly looked at the Mo Yan. The area surrounding him became a terrifying thunder zone within a few seconds.
All buildings and plants in that zone were shattered by the lightning, raising wisps of black smoke and flakes of fire.
The female zombie didn’t understand why her boss lost control so frequently in the recent couple of days. Not even her power could stop his condition from worsening.
Was she too weak? Mo Yan was a breath away from level-nine while she was still at level-five.
Would she be able to calm Mo Yan down when she reached his level?
The group of zombie dominators under Mo Yan’s command landed near the female zombie.
Mo Yan had ordered them to protect the female zombie while he himself was out of control. As a level-five healing power possessor, she was too weak.
Mo Yan didn’t want the female zombie to be killed by humans while he was out of control. If that happened, he would be doomed.
He had given her a lot of zombie nuclei to help her with the upgrade. However, she was in a special condition. She wasn’t able to absorb the nuclei that contained other types of energies. All she could absorb was the nuclei of the zombie at level two or three who hadn’t triggered their superpowers yet. She was already at level-five, so it would take her a very, very long time to upgrade by absorbing low-leveled zombie nuclei.
The zombies who possessed the same kind of power as she did were even rarer than the lightning-powered ones. Therefore, for a zombie-like her, upgrading was especially difficult.
For these reasons, Mo Yan hadn’t found an efficient way to upgrade that female zombie.
“Roar…” Mo Yan gaped his mouth and bared his sharp teeth as he gave a resonant roar. His purple eyes were wide open, and his face was twisted. Following his roar, more and more lightning bolts descended from the sky, affecting a wider and wider area.
Suddenly, he twitched and threw himself off the building.
Thud! He landed on the ground, then struggled back up. In the next second, he rushed straight at the wall nearby.
Bang! He created a hole on that wall.
As he lost control of himself, the zombies that had been heading toward Huaxia Base instantly began running crazily. Soon, the people in Huaxia Base sensed it as well.
“The zombie crowd is stirred!” The people who had been watching into the distance immediately shouted out loud. They saw the zombies far away charging at the base, unusually fast and ferociously.
Receiving that message, Si Kongchen and the others immediately came onto the wall top. Through telescopes, they saw those zombies surging at the base like the tidewater.
“Those zombies are agitated. I think it’s because the thunder zone has appeared again!” Si Kongchen looked around through the telescope, but didn’t spot the thunder zone.
