200 Thunder vs Black Mis

Seeing that the weird and powerful zombie was temporarily trapped, the group of human beings felt slightly relieved and began retreating toward a safer place. 

"What level is that zombie? Why is it so tall and strong? Was it this tall before turning into a zombie?" 

"I don't think so. I've sensed a very strong energy from its muscles. I guess it became like this after turning into a zombie." 

"So which level it's at? And its eyes are shining with a purple light. I've never seen a zombie like this."

"I don't know. But I can tell it's much more powerful than the three zombie leaders we saw before. Is this…a level-six, zombie king?" 

"Zombie king!" Hearing that, the others had their scalps numbed. 

"Quick, quick, quick! Let's get away before it recovered!" 

"What…what about that lady?" 

"What lady! Didn't you see that she has disappeared already! Are you dumb? She has a space! If she failed to defeat that zombie, she could simply hide in her space! What can possibly happen to her? It's dangerous for us to stay here, and we might even hinder her! Go! Let's go!" 

While speaking, the five people immediately turned to retreat to a farther area. 

The thunder zombie king couldn't pay any attention to them at the moment. It slapped its body to try and get rid of the black mist, but failed. Afterward, it watched its blood and muscles disappear. 

The zombie immediately released dazzling purple light and lightning bolts from its body which covered its body and soon separated the black mist from it. 

The black mist and purple lightning collided, quickly producing a wisp of black smoke. The some rose into the sky, then spread out. The zombie king speedily rushed out of the black mist, uttering a strange sound. 

"Whoo…hum…whooo…hum…"

After the black mist was dissipated, the zombie king looked even scarier than before. Earlier on, its body was simply covered in bloodstains, but now, it was badly mutilated. After every step it took, a large amount of sticky, black blood would drip onto the ground, forming a puddle. 

However, the bleeding barely affected the zombie king as it walked out of the mist, then raised its head to give a howl. 

"Roar!" 

Two figures showed up, darting to the zombie king along with swishing noises and standing before it. At first glance, Lin Qiao recognized that those two were the two zombie leaders that she had scared away earlier. 

It turned out that these two were the zombie king's underlings! They were here to help! 

The two zombie leaders bent toward the zombie king as Lin Qiao sensed the strong fear from them. They were afraid of the zombie king indeed. 

'Why so afraid?'

Before Lin Qiao figured it out, the zombie king suddenly made a step forward and inserted its claws which were shining with a purple light into the two zombie leaders' throats. 

Puff!

With that, the two zombie leaders' heads were penetrated. 

After that, the zombie king pulled out its claws, each claw holding a zombie nucleus. The two zombie leaders died immediately, thudding against the ground. 

Now, Lin Qiao understood why the two zombie leaders were so frightened. They were afraid that the zombie king might kill them directly, but they didn't dare to fight back. Therefore, without a choice, they let the zombie king take their life and dig out their zombie nuclei. 

The zombie king directly threw the two zombie nuclei which still had brain matters on them into its mouth, and swallowed. Then, it turned back while breathing loudly. 

It suddenly raised a hand to point at Lin Qiao's black mist which hadn't been dissipated entirely. After that, a series of rumbling thunder was heard, following which, finger-thick bolts of lightning struck on the black mist. 

The lightning landed on the ground along with thunderous sounds, and erased the black mist. 

Lin Qiao felt suffocated when losing control of the black mist. She understood that the zombie king had dispersed the energy in the black mist, meaning that it would soon collapse.

Lin Qiao now felt that level-six zombies were indeed not easy to deal with, as even the black mist wasn't able to devour it. It was nimbler than her, so sneak attacks wouldn't work either. 

How could she fight it them? Should she drag it into her space and let Viney take care of it? She wasn't sure if Viney could suppress it.

Besides, the zombie king was covered in blood and flesh shreds. It might pollute the lake water! Would the lake water remain drinkable if she threw this zombie into the lake? 

While Lin Qiao was considering how to kill the zombie king, the latter was looking for her. It was angry, because Lin Qiao took away its ordered food. The few zombie leaders which were responsible for delivering the food were scared away by her, and the food escaped. The zombie king had been starved for days. It was expecting the batch of people, as those living human beings would be a full meal. But, to its surprise, some other zombie took them away right in its territory. 

Moreover, the zombie which took its food was at a lower level than itself. If she were at its level, it might not be so infuriated. 

How dare a lower level zombie offend it! She was clearly challenging it. 

So, it had to tear that bold zombie into pieces, then dig out its nucleus. 

When Lin Qiao was confronting the zombie king, three trucks and two off-road vehicles were coming this way from about ten miles away. At that moment, Wu Yueling was huddling in Wu Chengyue's arms, sleeping like a kitten with the straw dragonfly clenched tight in her hand. 

Wu Chengyue held his daughter as he looked outside through the car window. Xiao Yunlong, who sat beside him, was looking at a map. Without raising his head, Xiao Yunlong asked, "Are you sure that the thunder zombie king is in Upper City District? There're so many zombies in this area. I think you can find tens of zombie leaders here." 

Sea City Base people knew that the center of Hangzhou City had a high concentration of zombies. For that reason, independent squads wouldn't enter that area. If tens of zombie leaders lived in that place, the existence of level-six zombie kings or queens was reasonable.

No one would want to offend a zombie king or queen unless they had to. Whether they could kill the zombie king or queen was just one problem; if they failed to kill it, they might suffer the revenge of a zombie tide. 

Zombie kings and queens were smart, and could hold grudges. 

Wu Chengyue nodded and responded, "Level-six zombies don't always exist where you can find many level-five."

Xiao Yunlong raised his head to glance at him, then at Lingling, and said, "How confident are you? It's too risky! If you can't kill it, you know the consequences." 

Wu Chengyue smiled and nodded as he said, "I know. So, I'll do everything I can to kill it. But, you'll have to take care of Ling Ling for me." He surely knew that if he failed to kill the zombie king, he would be hunted by it to the end of the world, and might be needing to face a zombie tide. If that happened, he would be in serious troubles.
