Chapter 487: The Undefeated Team Zenith

Chapter 487: The Undefeated Team ZenithBefore the human reinforcements could recover from their shock at seeing a second member of Team Zenith return safe and sound, Sun Xiaowu's team had returned. By then, the reinforcements were petrified.

Sun Xiaowu smiled as he rushed back to Renhuang. "Mission accomplished!"

"Well done," Zhang Lie praised.

Sun Xiaowu smiled wryly. "That said, Captain, my opponent really was quite something..."

Li Feng shrugged. "The seven sura kings are all perverts, and uncommonly strong ones at that."

Sun Xiaowu countered, "Did your sura king transform into two giant testicles that spread syphilis everywhere?"

Fang Yi: ...

The sura king he had had to deal with certainly wasn't on the same level of perversion as what Sun Xiaowu had experienced. He could hardly imagine how Sun Xiaowu had survived his ordeal.

The human reinforcements grew more and more shocked with every set of forces that returned—not because of how Sun Xiaowu had described the sura king, but because he had returned safe and sound with much of his forces in tow.

Perhaps they could chalk the first group's return to luck, the second to chance, but the third to nothing less than strength. By the time the fourth group returned, the human reinforcements felt as though they needed a strong drink.

Not only had they all returned safe and sound, they even brought back the severed head of a sura king.

Li Feng strode forward. "Captain, this is for you!"

The two genetic hunters behind him lifted up a gigantic skull that belonged to Moyan.

Some of the reinforcements had wondered if the members of Team Zenith truly did eradicate the sura forces as they had claimed. Now that they saw a sura king's skull for themselves, those last embers of doubt were quashed.

Actions spoke louder than words, after all.

The fifth set of troops brought an even larger surprise with them. Yang Ze and Hong Xi had returned with a cage in which a baby was kept.

The humans were all shocked to see him. "Is this a baby sura?"

Li Feng asked curiously, "Why bring this baby back with you, Yang Ze? Surely you aren't going to raise him?"

Yang Ze replied, "This is the sura king Suiyue."

Everyone was astounded.

Zhou Liao's eyes opened wide as he glanced at the baby. "How did the sura king turn into a baby?"

Zhang Lie asked, "You forced him to reverse time so much that he ended up becoming a baby?"

Zhang Lie was able to guess what had happened knowing the critical drawback to Suiyue's primary technique.

"More or less," Yang Ze replied. "How should I deal with him?"

"Hand him over to the Yeluo chieftain." It would certainly be impossible to raise him—who knew what a sura baby who was once a sura king would do amidst a city of humans and other alien races? And yet it felt vile to kill a baby, even a sura baby. The best solution was to hand him over to the Yeluo chieftain to be studied and investigated.

The last to return was Sun Mengmeng.

Upon her return, Zhang Lie couldn't help but smile. "How did it go?"

The hardest foe to deal with was none other than Shicang, whose massive army presented such a quandary that even Zhang Lie wasn't certain he could deal with it all. He had dispatched Sun Mengmeng both because her techniques were compatible against the enemy and because he believed in her strength. Seeing her triumphant return now, he knew that that belief was justified.

Sun Mengmeng nodded. She suddenly stumbled, as though she had over-exerted herself, and Zhang Lie stepped forward to help support her. "Are you alright?"

Sun Mengmeng stuck out her tongue. "I'm just a little tired, and I'll be fine after a short break.

The human reinforcements simply couldn't get over their shock.

For what reason had they come? They had gathered all these forces intending to support Zhang Lie's last stand, only to find that he had already won the battle on his own!

What an idiot they had thought Zhang Lie for dividing his troops into six separate forces and sending each out against a sura king—but Zhang Lie had proved to them that they were the idiots instead!

Each member of Team Zenith had the ability to kill a sura king. Few would have believed this seemingly ludicrous claim in the past, but now, they had no choice but to do so.

Renhuang's combat strength was simply off the charts—how could even the members of Team Zenith be able to deal with sura kings like Zhang Lie? And if the members of Team Zenith were able to kill sura kings themselves, how strong had Zhang Lie become?

Zhang Lie smiled as he turned to face his team and all the forces that stood behind him. "We've prepared a banquet for all of you."

The hunters' forums were buzzing with activity.

"I heard that Renhuang's reinforcements are slated to arrive today."

"Reinforcements? What reinforcements? Mark my words, Renhuang can't be saved! A seven-kingdom coalition, led by seven sura kings—except for a sura empire, nothing and no one would be able to withstand such a force!"

"You know how hard it's been for the humans to stake a claim to the second realm— they're having a hard time surviving, let alone dealing with a serious invasion! It's true that Zhang Lie can probably take down one or two sura kings, but certainly not seven at once. Unless the world federation ends up fully backing Zhang Lie, there's no way Renhuang will survive. What a pity for all those reinforcements to be sent toward a death trap!"

"There's simply no reason to fight such a lopsided battle. The highest authority of the world federation, Amurong, was completely right—there's no need for us to sacrifice the entirety of the world federation's forces in the second realm just to save Zhang Lie!"

"I'll be waiting to hear about the news of Renhuang's destruction."

"No forces will be able to survive the invasion of seven sura kingdoms, let alone a city led by as idiotic a governor as Zhang Lie. I can't believe he chose to split up his forces! Does he really think his team is that strong?"

Suddenly, someone posted a new thread. "Breaking news! Zhang Lie defeated the seven-kingdom coalition, and the members of Team Zenith each killed a sura king!"

"What? You must be joking—there's no way!

When did the humans get so strong that they could manage such a feat?" S~ᴇaʀᴄh the ɴøvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

"That's right. I won't deny that Zhang Lie has the ability to go up against a sura king, but surely not the members of his team!"

"I know you must be suffering as a human, but make up some more believable boasts instead!"

"Dream on—Renhuang's going to fall, and there's nothing you can do to stop it!"

The hunter who had posted the thread replied, "I was part of the reinforcements sent to Renhuang. By the time we arrived, the hunters of Team Zenith had returned, and there was the skull of a sura king hung up on the city gates!"

"A skull? Ha!"

"How was it? Has Renhuang been destroyed already?"
