"Thank you, Chang Wei." Tang Yingtong looked at him gratefully, a warm feeling welling up in her heart.
She couldn't help but think that if that person had been an enemy, she would probably be in grave danger.
In this apocalyptic world, even the slightest oversight could lead to the end of one's life.
"I'm just lamenting how unfamiliar this world has become."
Tang Yingtong sighed softly, "The sky is still the same sky, the stars are still the same stars, and the night is still so dark and quiet. But our Earth is no longer the Earth it used to be. Zombies, evolved beings, mutated beasts... it's all like a nightmare."
Chang Wei listened quietly to her words, a strange emotion welling up in his heart.
He understood my feelings, Tang Yingtong, and had also had similar doubts and speculations.
However, he lacked the courage to face this cruel reality.
He quietly stayed by Tang Yingtong's side, hoping to offer her some comfort and support.
"Perhaps, it was all destined."
Tang Yingtong sighed softly, "We are like a group of ants being toyed with by fate, barely surviving in this apocalypse. But as long as we have a breath left, we must continue to fight."
Chang Wei nodded without saying a word. He understood what Tang Yingtong meant, and he also understood his own responsibility.
In this apocalyptic world, they must unite to survive.
Deep in Tang Yingtong's heart, she understood that, at least until her own power reached a level sufficient to shake the world, those intricate mysteries and endless challenges were like a sword hanging high, preventing her from easily reaching them.
"Get some rest, tomorrow will be another tough battle." Chang Wei's words echoed in the night. He gently patted Tang Yingtong's shoulder, then turned and disappeared into the night.
As Tang Yingtong watched that receding figure, a strange emotion flickered in her eyes.
She secretly vowed, "One day, I will find the person who changed all of this, and I will question him: Why did you let the world fall into such a state!"
The next day, sunlight shone through the clouds onto the earth, and the crowd gathered, preparing to head towards the granary.
They did not send out all their personnel, but instead selected evolved individuals and dozens of experienced warriors to accompany them.
The ordinary zombies had been mostly wiped out in the previous battles; what remained were the cunning and powerful special zombies.
The duty of those dozens of soldiers was primarily to act as their eyes and ears, issuing an alarm as soon as danger was detected.
Considering the danger of this mission, Chang Wei decided to leave Yoko Okino behind to be in charge of command and coordination.
They quickly returned to yesterday's battlefield. Before them, dozens of special zombies roamed in front of the granary, with the zombie king standing at the very center, like an insurmountable mountain.
451 bombarded the zombie horde relentlessly, annihilating the zombie king.
Uesugi Yu and the others felt a chill run down their spines when they faced so many special zombies for the first time.
They secretly rejoiced, thankful that it was a three-way alliance; otherwise, they alone would probably have had a hard time resisting.
"Do it!"
At Chang Wei's command, they charged towards the horde of zombies like tigers descending a mountain.
Seeing this, the others no longer hesitated and unleashed their skills. In an instant, various lights and energies intertwined and poured down like a torrential rain.
Meanwhile, Ishihara Tenkei, Sasaki Suke, and others stood at the rear, responsible for vigilance and observation, ensuring that they could promptly alert everyone to retreat should any unexpected situation arise.
Although they are not weak, they can only be bystanders in the face of a battle of this level.
"Roar—" The zombie king, who had seemed to be asleep, suddenly let out a deafening roar. He sensed a powerful threat from ahead, and a look of shock flashed in his eyes.
But he quickly regained his composure, and dozens of special zombies gathered around him like lightning, preparing to face the impending storm.
On that battlefield where darkness and death intertwined, two magical zombies, their bodies engulfed in flames like figures from hell, arrogantly sheltered the invincible zombie king at the core.
Their scarlet eyes, like flames in lava, gleamed with an endless thirst for life and a fanatical thirst for killing.
Chang Wei and his group charged into the sea of zombies like sharp blades cutting through the wind.
Faced with their onslaught, a glint of mad violence flashed in the eyes of those zombies; they felt no fear, only a fanaticism for slaughter.
They knew nothing of retreat; they only knew to use their last ounce of strength to defend their king.
"Quick reaction!"
Chang Wei was amazed, but his eyes were filled with determination.
He moved like lightning, cutting through layers of zombies and heading straight for the core of the zombie king.
He seemed to transform into a bolt of lightning, ignoring all obstacles in his path, all for that one fatal blow.
"Kill!" Tang Yingtong, Shangshan Yu and others followed closely behind. Their attacks were as fierce as a storm, tearing the zombie horde apart time and time again, opening a bloody path for Chang Wei to become the zombie king.
Chang Wei's speed had reached its limit. He moved through the zombie horde like a ghost. Finally, a sharp blade of light pierced the air and slashed straight at the zombie king.
"Boom!" A loud noise seemed to shake the heavens and earth.
A magical zombie roared and spewed out a dazzling pillar of fire, as bright as the sun, charging towards Chang Wei with an aura of annihilation.
At this critical moment, Tang Yingtong stepped forward.
A phantom of a fire phoenix reappeared around her, gripping a spear burning with deep blue flames.
She hurled it with a sudden thrust, and the spear streaked across the sky like a meteor, colliding violently with the pillar of flame.
"Bang!" The two forces collided violently in the air, creating a deafening roar.
An invisible wave spread outwards, instantly scattering the surrounding zombies into pieces.
Chang Wei watched as the attack before him was thwarted. Although he admired Tang Yingtong's bravery, he had no time to think about it and continued to charge towards the zombie king.
His eyes gleamed with unwavering determination, as if he wanted to tear this dark world apart completely.
As the distance between them shortened, the zombie king's gaze grew increasingly cold.
The other zombie beside it suddenly roared and locked its target on Chang Wei. A terrifying beam of light shot out from its eye, carrying the power to destroy everything as it attacked Chang Wei.
"Hehe, your opponent is me!" At this critical moment, Uesugi Yu stepped forward.
He stared coldly at the beam of light, his hands crackling with lightning, like dancing lightning snakes.
He took a deep breath, condensed all the lightning into a small purple ball of lightning, and then hurled it forward.
"Boom!" The lightning ball collided with the beam of light in mid-air, unleashing an astonishing energy surge. The energy surge instantly scattered the surrounding zombies, while Uesugi Yu stood firmly in place, a victorious smile on his face.
He successfully bought valuable time for Chang Wei.
On that vast battlefield, a seemingly ordinary purple ball, as small as a marble, contained a power powerful enough to shake the heavens and the earth.
With a flick of his fingertips, the small ball streaked across the night sky like a shooting star, leaving a dazzling trail before colliding head-on with the oncoming beam of light.
In an instant, thunder and flames intertwined, like the fury of heaven and earth, creating a breathtaking and magnificent spectacle on the battlefield.
However, this dazzling moment was as fleeting as fireworks. Immediately afterwards, a terrifying shockwave swept across the sky like a storm, shearing the tops of the surrounding trees flat as if they were mirrors.
I, Tang Yingtong, and Shangshan Yu fought side by side, each blocking a fierce attack from the magical zombie, and then took the initiative to launch a fierce attack on the two zombies.
Flames and lightning intertwined to form a sea of fire and electricity, tightly enveloping the two zombies, leaving them only able to deal with the situation and unable to offer any assistance to the zombie king.
The other soldiers also found their own opponents on the battlefield and engaged in fierce battles.
The battle between Kotaro and Kumoku was particularly noteworthy.
Kotaro is like a giant possessed by flames; with a single punch, he can blast a level six strength-type zombie to pieces, its flesh turning to ashes under the burning flames.
Yun Kong, on the other hand, seemed completely at ease, strolling as if in his own backyard, with no zombie able to get close to him.
Each of the glass balls he casually tossed was as powerful as a small bomb.
A level 7 speed-type zombie was hit by a glass ball due to carelessness, and instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist that scattered in all directions.
On the battlefield, explosions rang out one after another, perfectly embodying the madness and violence of Yun Kong.
Chang Wei, on the other hand, stared at the zombie king in front of him with a solemn expression.
He understood that only by truly facing such a king-level creature could one feel that terrifying pressure rising from the bottom of one's heart.
The pressure was as heavy as a mountain, making his intuition pound and reminding him that he had to give it his all.
The zombie king stared at Chang Wei with his dark pupils, revealing a set of white teeth, as if mocking his powerlessness.
Chang Wei knew that if he made the slightest mistake, this could very well be his last battle.
However, he did not back down, but straightened his back and prepared to face this life-or-death battle.
In the deep darkness of the night, Chang Wei's eyes suddenly widened, as if he had witnessed an incredible miracle.
What he saw reflected in his pupils was a zombie, a strange smile seemingly playing on its lips. This smile appeared especially eerie in the deathly silence of the night, causing a torrent of doubt to surge within him.
However, in that instant, a chill shot up his spine and into his heart, as if countless icy needles were piercing his skin. He turned around almost instinctively, and with a "whoosh," a dark shadow grazed past his chest.
He tried his best to dodge, but the terrifying force still pushed him away like a giant wave until his body crashed into a tree trunk more than ten meters away before stopping.
When the shadowy figure stopped and revealed its true form, Chang Wei's pupils contracted again.
It was a zombie, but its eyes and aura were completely different from other zombies.
He realized that this was the king of zombies.
He hurriedly looked back at the spot where the zombie king had been, but only saw a faint shadow gradually dissipating.
"Afterimage!"
A chill ran through Chang Wei's heart.
