Zombie King Babysits the Reborn Empress

Chapter 223: Slipped Through the Net


The white-haired corpse in Tyrant No. 1's hands was naturally none other than Captain Li, who had tried to use his teammates to buy time to escape.

Saying grandiose words while betraying his teammates.

In a life or death crisis, his true nature was revealed.

He thought all the zombies were drawn by his teammates, allowing him to scale the high wall to escape.

But alas, he was too proud too soon.

Lu Chuan's initial goal was to catch them all in one sweep, so how could he let them escape under his watch?

After Er Pang charged in, Lu Chuan specifically arranged for Tyrant No. 1 to guard outside the high wall, to capture anyone trying to escape over it.

Just as the white-haired man jumped off the high wall, he was punched into the ground by the charging Tyrant No. 1.

Before he could even scream, the claws in Tyrant No. 1's hands shot out, pinning him to the ground, dead beyond any doubt.

Tyrant No. 1 lightly flicked his hand, and the white-haired corpse rolled to the ground.

At this point, the human evolvers who plotted against the farm were completely annihilated under the dual assault of the Bloodthirsty Vine Wall and Lu Chuan's Corpse Puppets.

"If there's anyone to blame, blame yourselves for courting death! Dare to provoke me, and this is what you get!"

Lu Chuan sneered coldly at the evolver bodies on the ground.

He never had any intention to provoke humans; ideally, both sides would stay out of each other's business peacefully.

However, if humans planned to go after him, he wouldn't hold back and would eliminate any threat.

After all, if they're coming for him, how could he afford leniency?

It's known that with his ability to control other zombies, if captured by humans, the outcome would either be death or eternal imprisonment in a cage, subjected to endless research.

So since these humans dared to raid the farm at night, they should be prepared to leave their lives behind.

Inside the farm, Ji Ruxue suddenly snapped back to consciousness and climbed out of bed, quickly heading outside after seeing her father take down the remaining evolvers.

At that moment, Zhao Lin, sensing the quiet outside and guessing that the battle was over, immediately asked Ji Ruxue, "Little Qiqi, I noticed there's no sound outside. Did your father win?"

Previously, Zhao Lin had been closely following the battle outside, and hearing the repeated screams of humans, she guessed that the Zombie King had won.

"Of course my father won. My father is the best."

Ji Ruxue smiled with pride in her voice.

Hearing this, Zhao Lin subconsciously sighed in relief. Indeed, the Zombie King won, and that's good, that's good...

But then Zhao Lin felt something strange inside — her attitude seemed… a bit wrong!

The Zombie King won, which meant the humans outside were all dead, killed by the evolved zombies under the zombie king.

Why was she happy for the Zombie King? Was she sick?

Why is this happening?

She's human!

No, no, it's not like that… She wasn't happy because the Zombie King won.

It was because she feared that if the Zombie King was killed by evolvers, there would be no one left to take care of Little Qiqi.

That must be it!

Little Qiqi is so young; without the Zombie King to rely on, how would she live?

Once she convinced herself, Zhao Lin felt much better.

At this moment, Ji Ruxue looked at Zhao Lin with a slightly peculiar gaze.

This woman, what was she just thinking for her facial expressions to change so quickly!

"Little Qiqi, you better tell your father to be careful lately.

This time, the eradication of the human evolvers won't go unnoticed; they'll likely send even stronger forces here, so we must remain vigilant."

Zhao Lin, coming to her senses, felt that Little Qiqi's gaze was strange, but she didn't mind.

She quickly expressed her concerns, considering it a warning for the Zombie King.

"Okay, I'll tell Dad."

Ji Ruxue nodded, and actually, even without Zhao Lin's reminder, she and her dad understood the gravity of the situation.

This total annihilation of the human evolvers would surely attract serious attention from the Human Base City.

With recurring issues with the evolvers sent to the Jiangnan City District, even a fool could guess there's something unusual there.

Outside the farm, gazing at the ruined landscape and the scattered corpses, Lu Chuan began directing Corpses Puppets to clean up the area.

The high wall generated by Earth Escape No. 1 would naturally be dismantled by it as well. With a wave of its hand, the wall glowing with earthen spiritual light crumbled, turning into dust that flowed into the ground and vanished.

On the ground, only mangled corpses and broken remains were left, staining it red with a nauseating bloody stench.

Soon, the corpse puppets carrying tools gathered, picking up the scattered remains and putting them in bamboo baskets.

Then, they shoveled the bloody mud and nearly unrecognizable bodies into the Bloodthirsty Vine wall.

These were evolver flesh and blood, not to be wasted.

As soon as these remains touched the Bloodthirsty Vine, it sprang into action.

Countless blood-like vines on the vine wall rushed towards the bloody flesh, wrapping them up.

The sharp vine tips violently speared into the flesh, devouring the nutrients needed for their growth and evolution.

The vine wall now looked like a nest of feeding serpents, a mass of blood-thirsty vines, a sight that made one's skin crawl.

The abundant energy in the evolver's flesh was incredibly desirable to the vines.

At this moment, Ji Ruxue, who had been watching through the perspective of the Bloodthirsty Vine, discovered a peculiarity—a corpse with a collapsed chest that nearly lost human shape was untouched by the vines.

As if… it wasn't flesh but something else entirely.

"What's going on? Why aren't they consuming this body?"

Ji Ruxue was full of doubt, scrutinizing the body closely.

The Bloodthirsty Vine's desire for flesh was insatiable, and as long as there was a scent of flesh, it would attack and devour it.

But she could clearly sense that the vines had no desire to devour this corpse.

"Could it be… this body isn't made of flesh…"

Suddenly, Ji Ruxue thought of something, her pupils shrank, and her face turned grim.

Her gaze suddenly sharp as a sword, she stared at the body.

Could there still be an escapee?
