nChapter 79: Let the Humans Witness Our Power!

nTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

nThe massive army of zombies marched in a grand and undisciplined manner.

nOne could not expect the zombies to follow orders like well-trained soldiers, but their robust physical condition and fearlessness of death made them superior warriors compared to human soldiers.

nAbout 10 kilometers away from Good Hope Village, the seven Zombie Kings gathered once again.

nThe leader among them was undoubtedly the Devourer, Sima Xiao.

nAt this moment, Sima Xiao was in high spirits!

nSeven Level 4 Zombie Kings.

nThere were hundreds of thousands of zombies gathered together, enough to make anyone who heard about it tremble in fear!

nIn fact, in Sima Xiao’s opinion, there was no need to fight seriously in this battle. Just having the zombies horde charge would be enough to crush all enemies, retake the Holy Tower, and capture a few more Awakened individuals to enrich the crop in his vegetable fields.

nHowever…

n“I say, why are you two hiding so far away?”

nSima Xiao asked jokingly as he looked at Simba and Lian Jie, who were half-crouched on the ground and carefully hiding behind the Tanks.

nSimba raised his head slightly, “Oh, ho ho ho! This is my combat form! When I assume such a posture, it means that I’ve entered a combat state!”

nLian Jie gave a strange look at the cautious Simba and thought that Simba was indeed a bit odd. After thinking for a moment, he said, “My mother is by my side, so I have to protect her.”

nSima Xiao shrugged. “Alright then.”

nIn its eyes, this battle was the endgame. Whether Simba and Lian Jie contributed or not was not that important.

nBut little did it know that Simba and Lian Jie exchanged a glance in secret.

nAs their eyes met, both sides showed a look of realization.

nThe meaning in their gaze seemed to say:

nSimba: “Brother, how did you know there were monsters over there?”

nLian Jie: “I was driven out by that monster. Do you see that observation tower? That monster is standing there. It probably has spotted us by now.”

nSimba: “That’s not good.”

nLian Jie: “Actually, I didn’t want to come either, but Sima Xiao made such a big deal out of this battle, and it’s hard to say who’s stronger between them and that monster. I thought I’d come to broaden my horizons, take advantage if there is any, and quickly run away if there isn’t. What about you, bro?”

nSimba: “It takes one to know one… Once the fighting starts, let’s take care of each other. We mustn’t let that monster kill us.”

nLian Jie: “Yes, okay, brother.”

nIt was hard to imagine that so much could be conveyed through eye contact.

nBut perhaps, it was a talent…

nNeither Lian Jie nor Simba said anything more.

nUntil the four Tanks let out a powerful roar!

nThis meant that the final attack had begun!

nSima Xiao stood in the most conspicuous position and waved its large hand, “Brothers, let the humans witness our power!”

nAs the zombie tide formed their battle formation, the entire Guangping Street Shelter had already entered the highest state of alert.

nThe survivors entered the underground shelter in an orderly manner. The Awakened ones used Lu Ming’s observation tower as the core to build a defense system.

nAnother speed-type Awakened person dashed towards the rear, preparing to inform the official shelter of the attack and request reinforcements.

nEverything proceeded in an orderly manner.

nBecause they had a fixed point—the Beacon of Hope!

nWith Brother Lu around, there was hope. The others naturally did not have to worry about anything.

nIf Brother Lu could not hold on, everyone would die, and worrying would be in vain.

nAt the top of the observation tower.

nLu Ming narrowed his eyes and scanned the horde in the distance.

nThere were many zombies and quite a few high-level ones.

nLu Ming saw more than 10 of the Tyrants.

nThere were also three Tentacle monsters and four Giant zombies which were larger than the Tyrant.

nAs he watched, Lu Ming could not help but take a deep breath.

n“So many, so powerful, so terrifying…”

nLu Ming was not afraid of the Tyrant.

nThis thing could not withstand a single shot from Lu Ming!

nHowever, Lu Ming could not deal with the zombie horde—he did not have the ability for large-scale killing.

nIt was also difficult for Lu Ming to deal with a Level 4 zombie.

nThe Tentacle Monsters had extremely strong self-healing abilities and were not particularly afraid of Lu Ming’s Thor’s Hammer (Lu Ming did not know the characteristics of the Devourer).

nAs for those Giant Zombies, they were probably Level 4. Lu Ming had no idea what abilities they possessed.

nThe unknown brought fear and uneasiness.

nLu Ming felt goosebumps rising on his skin.

nSuddenly, the roar of Giant Zombies resounded through the heavens and earth.

nBefore Lu Ming’s eyes, the horde began to move.

nThe Tyrant led the team, with the Hunters on the side, vigilantly watching.

nFour Giant zombies merged into the zombie horde, exuding a strong stench and malice, and crushing towards Lu Ming like an avalanche. This made Lu Ming’s eyes gradually turn red.

nA family member knows their own business best.

nLu Ming was alone. If he wanted to escape, he had a 100% chance of escaping this predicament.

nAs long as Lu Ming had the intention to flee, these zombies would definitely not be able to kill him on the spot.

nBut…

nHe turned to look at his house.

nHe thought of the supplies he had painstakingly gathered.

nAnd he thought about what would happen if he lost his home. He would have to wander around, constantly on edge and fending off the harassment of zombies.

nAnd he would go hungry.

nThat was right, he had to starve!!

nLu Ming’s appetite had already become so large. Without supplies and a stable logistics system, finding food every day would be an enormous task.

nPerhaps, just finding food would take up all of Lu Ming’s time each day. Then how could he farm his attributes? How could he become stronger?

nSuch a scene faintly appeared in his mind.

nHe was like a tramp wandering the streets, wearing dirty clothes, rummaging through trash cans, and even cheering when he found a half-drunk bottle of expired Coke.

nBut the cheering attracted the zombies…

nThe scene in his mind came to an end, and Lu Ming shivered violently.

nTaking a deep breath to clear his mind of all distracting thoughts, Lu Ming looked down at the briefcase by his feet.

nLu Ming muttered to himself.

n“Why!

n“Why do these zombies always have to shatter my sense of security?!

n“Why?! Can’t you guys just stay outside obediently and let me peacefully farm my attributes?!

n“I won’t go looking for you, so don’t come looking for me either. Let’s not meet for the rest of our lives. Isn’t that good?!

n“Why do I keep bumping into you guys when I’ve almost never stepped out of my house… Why, why, why!!”

nLu Ming could not find the answer!

nHence, he could only open the attribute panel!

nHe looked at the line of words that said ’55 free attribute points.’

nWithout hesitation, Lu Ming allocated 25 points to Strength, bringing it to 223!

nVitality 30 points, reaching 228.7!

nThen, he opened his briefcase, picked up a handful of zombie crystals, and stuffed them into his mouth.

nLu Ming stared at the approaching zombie horde with bloodshot eyes…

nUntil a heart-piercing pain surged from within his body!

nHis body started to heat up!

nHis muscles began to twitch involuntarily!

nThe intense pain made Lu Ming let out a roar, like an enraged wild beast!

nBut the pain passed as quickly as it had come.

nAbout a minute later, the pain rapidly subsided.

nLu Ming slowly stood up…

nHe clenched his fists.

nPower burst forth from his fingertips, unlike before.

nHe lowered his head.

nHe saw that his pants had shortened by a significant length.

nHe twisted his neck slightly.

nThe sound of bones cracking could be heard.

nFaintly, Lu Ming could still hear his thunderous heartbeat!

nOpening the attribute panel, Lu Ming’s attributes came into view!
