nLian Jie:”…”

nSimba:”…

nXu Rufang could not help but mutter, “Is he a charlatan?

nSon, I told you he’s not a good person. Let’s go.”

nLian Jie also thought his mother had a point.

nHowever…

n“Pa pa pa.

nIntense applause echoed.

nIt was the four Tanks, waving their human-sized palms and applauding.

nGood!

nWonderful!

nYou’re right!”

nWe are the true evolution!

nLian Jie and Simba:”…”

nThe four Tanks stood up, looking at Sima Xiao, their small eyes radiating fanatical light.

nAfter clapping for a long time, the Tanks spoke in unison, “Yes, True, Evolution, We are!”

nSima Xiao smiled and gestured for them to calm down. “Yes, that’s right! We are the true Evolvers! The path we are taking is the correct path of human evolution!”

nWe shed our human forms, we discard our human emotions. We believe in evolution and embrace evolution. We are the children of the Holy Tower, and only we have the potential for everything!

nAnd now, those despicable humans have enclosed themselves in the Holy Tower, daring to claim it as their own!”

nCan this be tolerated?

nThe Tanks said, “No!”

nWe can’t!

nWe can’t take it anymore!”

nSima Xiao raised his hands again, passionately proclaiming, “This is an era that belongs to us! Brothers, comrades, family members! Let us reclaim the Holy Tower and embrace our evolution! Fight, shout, and devour! Use our strength to shatter everything!”

nHis gaze vaguely turned towards Simba and Lian Jie as Sima Xiao continued, “As long as all of you join me, you can share in the glory of the Holy Tower! Not joining? Enjoy watching from the sidelines? Enjoy hesitating? Enjoy doubting? Then you will only be left defenseless!”

nThe Tanks: “Break through the defense!”

n“Attack!”

nEat!

nBreak the defense!

nLian Jie and Simba began to have a headache.

nJust as the two of them were reflecting on whether they had made a mistake by standing here, Sima Xiao heaved a sigh of relief and said again, “Of course, since I’m taking the lead this time, I won’t let everyone work in vain.”

n“I previously devoured an Awakened with healing superpower and I obtained his power.”

nIf anyone needs me to heal for food, feel free to come to me. You have chives, and I have fertilizer.”

nSimba and Lian Jie gasped.

nThis Sima Xiao not only knew how to talk, but he was also quite capable.

nThe healing ability was similar to Xu Rufang’s self-healing ability. They were both abilities that could rapidly induce the evolution of zombies.

nIt was expected that Simba would be tempted—who would not want an endless supply of snacks?

nEven Lian Jie was also tempted—he indeed needed the genes of different Awakened ones to increase his strength.

nWith such a temptation in front of them, even Lian Jie and Simba could not help but fall into silence.

nAmidst the voices of the Tanks chanting “Break the defense” and “Break the strong defense,” Simba and Lian Jie nodded one after another, “Count me in.”

n“Count me in too.

nSima Xiao revealed a smile that seemed to have everything under control.

nIt continued, “Alright then, this matter is settled. Tomorrow, we will launch a large-scale attack and reclaim the Holy Tower in one fell swoop!”

nAt this point, the gathering of zombie kings came to an end.

nAt that moment, Simba suddenly spoke up, “Why don’t we take down Good Hope Village first?”

nSima Xiao thought about it and nodded, “Sure.”

nThe human safe zone was only so big.

nGood Hope Village was also an outpost of the human safe zone.

nIt was a sound decision to attack Good Hope Village first.

nHowever, Sima Xiao was unaware of Simba’s hidden agenda.

nBack then, Simba had been terrified by Lu Ming and had fled from Wangcun. Now that he had reached Level 4, he still did not have the courage to approach Good Hope Village again.

nRight now, letting Sima Xiao test the situation in Good Hope Village was a very wise choice.

nHow should we attack?”

nSimba was about to tell Sima Xiao that there might be a monster in Good Hope Village, but before he could say anything, he saw Sima Xiao’s sinister smile.

nHow should we attack?

n“Attack directly!”

n“What? Are we hunting now and still concerned about methods, about tactics?”

n“Sneak attack? Play tactics? That won’t do!

n“We have to confront their defenses head-on! Not for anything else, but to prove our strength! Sneaking around is too dirty and doesn’t showcase our superiority!”

nBrothers, tell me, am I right?!”

nThe Tanks, “Awooo!”

nYes!

n“Ha.”

n“Huh.

nSimba and Lian Jie’s eyelids twitched.

nThey could not help but question themselves.

nWas he really serious about this zombie king gathering?

nThe grand banquet began.

nThe four Tanks did not have food reserves—and their intelligence was not enough to support such acts of storing food.

nThe food was provided by Sima Xiao.

nThree Level 2 Awakened individuals.

nThe three humans were bound by Sima Xiao’s tentacles, their faces devoid of expressions of fear or panic, only numbness remained, like a mass of human-shaped dead flesh.

nMeanwhile, Sima Xiao waved to the three Awakened individuals and calmly announced the names of the dishes.

nThese are my collections!

nThe superpowers of these three Awakened ones are fire, ice, and strength. Every time I consume them, I will only eat a thigh or an arm and use a healing superpower to heal them. It’s like farming. Do you know about farming?”

n“Ha.”

nHuh.”

nHmph.”

nOw!

n“It seems that everyone knows… In any case, the key is sustainable development.”

nMoreover, I also found out that the taste of high-level Awakened ones is better and provides us with more evolutionary energy.”

nAt this point, Sima Xiao glanced at Lian Jie, hinting, “So, if any of you want to farm, you might as well increase the level of your crops? It doesn’t have to be much, just lower than yourself by one to two levels.”

nAs he spoke, Sima Xiao tore off the Awakened person’s legs and distributed them to Lian Jie, Simba, and the four Tanks.

nFor a moment, the sound of chewing and screams intertwined, as if performing a magnificent symphony.

nThat night, the seven zombie Icings dispersed and began recruiting manpower.

nBut it was not something that could be done overnight; It would take several days.

nAlthough his words were overbearing, Sima Xiao was still relatively cautious in his actions.

nOf course, cannon fodder alone can’t fight a war. We can’t let them take the lead in charging, right? That would be too disgraceful.

nIt was fine if he did not move, but if he did, he would crush the entire human safe zone like a thunderbolt.

nDay 66 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Tuesday.

nWhen Lu Ming woke up, he had no idea about the zombie king gathering happening dozens of kilometers away.

nHowever, the appearance of the tentacle monster yesterday had brought a little shock to Lu Ming regarding the zombies.

nThe Tentacle monster.

nIt should be a Level 4 zombie.

nAlthough they only had a long-range one-sided confrontation, the formidable self-healing ability of the tentacle monster still made Lu Ming uneasy… Who knew to what extent zombies could evolve?

nThis thing was becoming more and more peculiar.

nAfter the morning’s exercise, Lu Ming’s attributes became:

nName: Lu Ming

nStrength: 171.1 (173.9)

nPhysique: 172.4 (174.6)

nAgility: 203.4 (205.6)

nFree Attribute Points: 45

nFitness Lvi7 (1500

/1700)

nAfter a short rest, while helping Zhang Chengcheng cook, Lu Ming pondered the issue of the tentacle monster.

nJust then, Meng Jie walked over from not far away and shouted to Lu Ming from a distance.

nLittle Lu? Are you busy?”

nLu Ming looked up at Meng Jie and smiled. “Sister Meng, I just finished work. What’s up?”

n“It’s like this.”

nMeng Jie slowly walked over As she walked, she said, “Officials from the official shelter came earlier. It’s Huo Sheng and Bai Tianyu. Huo Sheng said that he wanted to meet you and talk. What do you think…”

nLu Ming thought for a moment and nodded, “Sure, let them come over. We can talk while eating..”

n
