Chapter 443: Two Zombie Kings?
Zhang Mu never expected that the dwarf Zombie King would not hide in the sea of zombies. It seemed he was too confident in his own spiritual power.
Yes, normally, even if one can withstand its spiritual attacks, all other powers cannot be accessed, because the body is controlled by the soul.
At such times, zombies with a sense of autonomous attack have a great advantage.
But now, Zhang Mu’s situation is quite special. The Blood Lotus wrapped around his left arm says it has merged with Zhang Mu’s bloodline, but they only have a parasitic relationship, usually letting Zhang Mu be in control.
Now that the Blood Lotus has regained its original nature, it has inadvertently increased its strength. It helps Zhang Mu by protecting him from zombies and sending extra vines towards the zombie king’s location.
Zhang Mu’s mental power is more defensive, so he can only passively defend himself. But in this situation, it’s the zombie king who seems to be getting nervous. Without the zombies being controlled, it doesn’t care about its own survival.
The nature of zombies is to feed!
With Zhang Mu, a living person nearby, who would bother protecting the zombie king? They all rushed towards Zhang Mu, who gave off a strong human scent.
This caused some trouble for the advancing Blood Lotus, but some vines still managed to emerge from the crowded undead.
After breaking free from the zombies, Blood Lotus created a blood vine prison to protect Zhang Mu who was currently fighting the zombie king. The vines that shot out quickly caught up to the zombie king.
Like Zhang Mu, it couldn’t move in this state, so it could only watch as the Blood Lotus vines pierced through its own body.
Feeling the threat of death, the zombie king finally became afraid. It stopped attacking Zhang Mu’s mental shield, quickly trying to retract its mental power, and stopped engaging with Zhang Mu. The sudden ability of this mutant plant to act independently was something the zombie king never expected. The biggest difference between Zhang Mu and regular plant evolvers is this.
“If you want to fight, you can fight. If you don’t want to fight, you can’t. It’s not that easy, is it?”
Zhang Mu struggled to resist the mental attacks from the zombie king, who had the power to control millions of zombies. Holding on to his true self was already very difficult for him, but now that the zombie king wanted to escape, Zhang Mu wouldn’t let it happen.
Now is the perfect opportunity for Blood Lotus to kill the zombie king!
By defeating the zombie king, the crisis in Ordos City can be resolved! Not only will they save the humans, but they will also profit greatly, filling their pockets.
And the elemental crystal of this zombie king is extremely valuable!
With this thought in mind, Zhang Mu’s mental strength was stronger than ever. When the zombie king tried to retract its mental power, Zhang Mu unexpectedly launched an attack, firmly holding onto the zombie king’s escaping mental energy.
Although not aggressive, Zhang Mu was able to entangle the zombie king’s mental power without letting go.
The zombie king didn’t have time to play around, but Zhang Mu was determined to keep the zombie king’s life here. His face turned white instantly, but he didn’t even notice.
His mental strength was somewhat strained, but luckily it was still within his limits.
Zhang Mu felt like he could rest soon as he watched the zombie king being torn apart by the Blood Lotus.
But the feeling of relief didn’t last long, as a sudden sense of danger arose in Zhang Mu’s mind.
This sense of danger didn’t come from the zombie king in front of him. Could it be someone behind it attacking?
In the next moment, an indiscriminate surge of energy swept through from a distance, forcing Zhang Mu to quickly assess the situation. While the energy surge was not very powerful due to its wide range, it was not something he could withstand with his mind vulnerable as it was now.
It was a bad time for this to happen. If he didn’t defend himself, he would be seriously hurt. Not worth the risk.
Though Zhang Mu didn’t know who sent out the energy surge, he felt anger bubbling inside him.
Who was the jerk unleashing this energy surge?
With Zhang Mu no longer engaging with it, the zombie king’s mind instantly retreated, blocking the attacks from the Blood Lotus. However, due to the delayed retreat, it was still somewhat damaged by the previous energy surge. It looked a bit dejected, casting a resentful glance in Zhang Mu’s direction before retreating back to the zombie horde.
The zombies surrounding Zhang Mu quickly backed off upon hearing the zombie king’s call, forming a tight protective circle around their king, leaving no gaps.
The Blood Lotus untangled itself from the blood vine cage, returning to its original form around Zhang Mu’s left arm, flowing like a poisonous snake, ready to obey Zhang Mu’s command at any moment.
Zhang Mu sighed in his heart, feeling very regretful now. It was such a pity that a zombie king like this made a mistake due to not understanding his situation, which was unlikely to happen again.
Normal people learn from their mistakes, let alone a zombie king whose intelligence far exceeds that of ordinary humans.
Zhang Mu angrily scanned around, looking for the person who had ruined his good deed just now. Whoever it was, they must be taught a lesson, possibly a mental evolver.
But when he started searching, Zhang Mu’s hairs stood on end in disbelief at what he saw before him.
The mental surge actually came from another zombie horde that Zhang Mu had not investigated just now.
“No way?”
With the same build, size, and expression, the zombie horde surrounded Zhang Mu’s position.
How could there be another zombie king?
So are there two zombie kings controlling this million zombie army?
If each person controls fifty thousand, that makes sense. But how can two zombie kings coexist? This species doesn’t tolerate its own kind. Right now, these two zombie hordes are not only not fighting each other, but also seem to be cooperating smoothly in attacking the city.
This completely overturns Zhang Mu’s understanding. They have intelligence, and for zombies, power means everything. How could they possibly share it with their own kind? One mountain cannot contain two tigers.
Uh-oh! Trouble’s brewing!
Zhang Mu watched nervously as the zombie horde swiftly moved towards him, observing the other zombie king within it.
He wasn’t sure how long he could hold out in this situation. Dealing with one had already been extremely challenging for him.
Zhang Mu truly couldn’t believe that there were two zombie kings.
