Level: 121

Skill: [Hammer Slam] [Strengthening Fist (Passive)] [Undying Regeneration (Passive)] [Undead Blessing (Passive)]

————————

Yu Shun shared the stage-5 Crusher with Wei Xi and Kang Xue. Crusher's most skills were passive, and most zombies' skills are passive. Yu Shun was not surprised by it.

What surprised him was the skill, the two skills, [Undying Regeneration] and [Undead Blessing]. He had eighteen zombies under his command, but none of them had these two skills.

Of course, everyone had had their regeneration skill, but it took his zombies hours to regrowth a lost limb and head. It took less than a minute for this Crusher to regrowth the crushed head and all four limbs.

He was curious what made this Crusher special, 'Huh, fortunately, Sister Kang Xue does not kill the zombie.'

His strongest zombie, Shredder, did not have any blessing. But Shredder was the fastest in terms of regeneration, [Greater Undead Regeneration].

"I don't know much about zombies, so I don't know about it," Wei Xi shook his head.

"Blessing…" meanwhile Kang Xue muttered in a low voice. From Yu Shun's reaction, it seemed he was surprised by the blessing. Meaning the blessing that made this Crusher different from the other zombies.

"Is there any relation with God?" She muttered while looking at Yu Shun, "You know, typical God like the God of another world that can give us a blessing. Maybe Undead God or something bestowed a blessing to this Crusher?"

"That is possible but we are unsure about that, this is Earth after all," it was a good theory but it was unlikely. Earth was a backward world compared to the other world. There was no magical power or so whatever in this world. God should not exist.

"My theory is, we are facing a terrifying Zombie Lord. Maybe this Zombie Lord is Stage-9 or even above," Yu Shun rubbed his chin and shared his thoughts, "The blessing is most likely from the Zombie Lord."

Qin Shoushan was choked when the young man mentioned Stage-9 Zombie easily as if it was not a problem. If the enemy was truly Stage-9, then this would be a tough battle.

"You look not troubled to smile while mentioning a terrifying Stage-9 Zombie?" Wei Xi looked at the young man weirdly.

"You do look the same, easy and calm as well," Yu Shun shrugged and tapped his head with his index finger, "That's because we have the same thinking, we have Lord Shaoyang. We trust him that even the stage-9 Zombie does not scare us anymore."

Wei Xi smiled as he indeed had the same thought. Even though he never saw Tang Shaoyang going all out, he believed in that man for some reason. The man never disappointed him even in a dire situation hence he built a blind trust in his Lord.

While Wei Xi was discussing the possibilities of the zombie's mutation, the others had gathered there. All the zombies in the village had been cleaned.

Meanwhile, Su Hong looked toward Kang Xue in shock. He was shocked by how strong the girl was. He thought the girl was a mere healer with some combat capability.

Now that thought had changed. He even wondered whether the girl was even stronger than Vice General Wei Xi. After looking at her performance just now. If someone came to him and claimed Kang Xue was stronger than Wei Xi or even General Zhang Mengyao, he might believe that.

How could someone win against that kind of speed? Kang Xue was basically turned into a streak of light in his eyes.

Soon he realized the gap between him and his superiors was just too big.

'What about the others?' He was asking himself about the other superiors. He never saw them fighting in person.

He heard from the earlier generation of Tarrior mentioning Lu An and Zhang Mengyao were the second strongest after the Lord, 'How strong are they compared to her?'

The question haunted him, but he had no way to know that unless he witnessed them battling or they fought. The latter was almost impossible, but the former was the most likely way for him to find out who was stronger than who.

Thinking about that, his heartbeat accelerated, thumping faster. For some reason, it made him excited about the future battle against the zombie despite the risk of losing his life.

It gave him excitement to find who was stronger than who. Participating in the battle would give him a chance to find it out.

'I have to work harder so I can stand with them as well,' he cast an envious gaze at Qin Shoushan and Zhao Zhong who gathered with Kang Xue and Wei Xi.

Suddenly Su Hong noticed a giant bird descended from the sky. The bird had very sharp eyes, having jade green feathers, and giving off an aloof and frightening aura.

'He is Wen, Lord's pet. I heard the beast also strong, as strong as Li Na's Moon,' Su Hong's eyes gleamed at the sight of the four people on the back of Wen.

'It must be nice to get surrounded by beauties…' his gaze lingered on Elin, the head cook of the base.

Elinova was everyone's crush until Captain Cao Yuntai warned them to stay away from her. He told them that Elinova was Lord Shaoyang's woman, 'It seems Captain Cao is not lying.'

Then Su Hong's gaze landed at the unreachable figure, Lord Shaoyang. For some reason, he felt inferior by just looking at the man. He felt inferior and at the same time, he also felt awe. It was a weird feeling.

'That's the man I have to impress! I need a better class than this shitty Elite Warrior. I need a Unique Class like everyone else. That's my priority for now. Maybe if I have a better class, I can surpass him and become the Lord…'

Su Hong was shocked at his own thoughts. He had witnessed many people try to take that position. All of them now died, even the Invisible Jin Fan was murdered brutally.

He immediately shook his head and hid that ambitious thought of his back in his head.

*** ***

Tang Shaoyang used the village as a temporary base as he sent Wen to scout the area. If possible to reunite with Kairu and Pride who ran wild in this territory.

"So you say the zombies in this territory are different from the zombies in our territory?" Tang Shaoyang looked at the window screen shared by Yu Shun.

He heard all the reports, the rare regeneration skill, and also the blessing.

Tang Shaoyang nodded his head and looked at the people in the room, "What about any other information? Does the stage-5 Crusher affiliate with any faction?"

"Daian Kingdom, the stage-5 Crusher is part of the Daian Kingdom. Then maybe our enemy is the Undead Kingdom?" Kang Xue replied and suddenly she realized that she overlooked the critical information.

Affiliation, meaning the zombies were making a faction. The mindless undead could make a faction, meaning the zombies were no longer mindless.

"Daian Kingdom?" Tang Shaoyang repeated the name in a low voice, "A kingdom, huh? Interesting. This will be our first war against the other faction."
