415: Golden Eyed Corpse King, Nan Nuo

Although the number of corpse race was astonishing, they were already in a chaotic battle, and the zombies Qiu Qian killed would become food for other zombies. A large group of zombies crowded together, instead blocking other zombies from approaching.

Thirty minutes later, Qiu Qian, panting heavily, led the group successfully through the corpse race.

As expected, without a brain, no matter how powerful, it was useless. The surrounding zombies also gathered towards the corpse race, quickly joining in the slaughter. This slaughter would likely not stop and would continue indefinitely, and the surrounding matter would slowly accumulate until the number of corpse race became extremely vast.

The endless reproduction of the corpse race also meant that the corpse race had entered into an endless internal struggle.

Looking at the vast, dark mass in the distance, Qiu Qian’s mouth curved into a bitter smile.

Although they were in internal conflict, the scale of the corpse race was still growing little by little.

On the current Blue Star, who knew how many such corpse race existed? These corpse race were like mold growing on an orange, constantly spreading and expanding until they devoured the entire Blue Star.

Qiu Qian stood on the other side of the valley, looking back at the dark, chaotic zombie horde, the scene before her filling her with immense dread.

The killed zombies quickly became food for other zombies, while newly surging zombies joined the melee.

In this endless slaughter, the zombies constantly devoured their companions, and were also devoured by other zombies, forming a strange equilibrium.

"Let's go, don't look anymore, there's nothing good to see," Qiu Qian said to the people beside her.

Everyone nodded slightly and followed Qiu Qian south.

After crossing the Linshan Defense Line, the number of zombies drastically decreased, but there were still some small-scale corpse race.

The Base Mechanical Legion had already withdrawn, and the surrounding outposts had been abandoned by East Sea City Base.

Under these circumstances, further cleansing of zombies held no meaning.

The defense line was still a day and a half's journey from the outer wall of Donghai City.

The group traveled for a moment when suddenly, a figure blocked their path.

This was a tall zombie, clad in black armor, with a golden pattern on his face and cold, hollow eyes.

His physical strength was clearly superior to that of ordinary zombies; he was tall and mighty.

With the appearance of that figure, the surrounding ground rapidly collapsed, and more than a dozen Corpse Kings appeared before everyone almost simultaneously.

These were all the members of the Linshan Zombie Defense Line's command headquarters.

After the ban on infinite reproduction was lifted, they quickly became bare Commanders, all zombies' intelligence regressed, their bodies strengthened, and the control of the mental contract also became ineffective.

But the Corpse Kings were all rational; they would not join the frenzy of replication.

No Corpse King was willing to return to chaos.

"So eager, are you trying to return to the Base?" That Corpse King slowly spoke, a fierce glint in his Gold-Eyed.

Qiu Qian drew her forged blade, and Mo Fei also stepped forward, adopting a defensive stance.

Without needing to guess, Qiu Qian knew that these Corpse Kings were the leaders of the corpse race army commanding the Linshan Defense Line.

"Who are you?" Qiu Qian asked coldly.

The Gold-Eyed Corpse King sneered, "I am Commander Nan Nan, a great general under my Emperor Jiang Chen. You must be Qiu Qian, the captain of the Special Operations Group, right? I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Nan Nan waved his hand slightly, and the dozen Corpse Kings beside him instantly vanished.

The next moment, screams erupted from behind Qiu Qian.

Clang, clang, clang! Qiu Qian swung her forged blade, blocking more than a dozen attacks, but the accompanying soldiers didn't even have time to react and were directly torn apart by those Corpse Kings, dying tragically on the spot.

Faced with the sudden crisis, Qiu Qian couldn't help but feel a surge of intense anger.

"Mo Fei, you break through first, don't worry about me!" Qiu Qian roared.

Of the dozen-person team, only Mo Fei and she remained.

The others had followed them all this way, but in the end, they hadn't survived.

Nan Nan wore a cold smile, looking at the Special Operations Group captain before him.

This woman's Special Operations Group had hunted down many Corpse Kings.

Now that she had finally fallen into his hands, he would not let her go easily.

The Corpse Kings around Nan Nan, like a pack of wolves, stared intently at their prey, waiting for the opportune moment to strike.

Nan Nan sneered, a hint of cruelty in his eyes: "The Special Operations Group has always hunted our corpse race kings. Today, let me end this game."

Qiu Qian gripped the forged blade in her hand, her eyes firm and sharp.

She knew that today would likely be a grim day.

She took a deep breath, adjusted her state, and prepared to face the upcoming battle.

"Mo Fei, are you ready?" Qiu Qian turned to Mo Fei beside her and asked in a low voice.

Mo Fei nodded, "Captain, I'm ready. Today, even if I die, I'll take a few with me."

Qiu Qian smiled slightly, "Take a few with you? No, you escape if you can, lest you drag me down."

As Qiu Qian spoke, she swung the forged blade in her hand and charged towards Nan Nan first.

Mo Fei followed closely, and the two moved like two bolts of lightning, weaving through the Corpse King horde.

These Corpse Kings were all of the second rank or higher, completely unafraid of physical attacks like the forged blade.

Although their weapons were indestructible, the Corpse Kings' recovery ability was terrifyingly strong.

Even if their heads were cut off, before they could fall, they would be caught by the Corpse King and pressed back into place, recovering in an instant as if nothing had happened.

Mo Fei was inwardly horrified; more than a dozen Corpse Kings of the second rank or higher could not be killed by cold weapons.

Unless they were pulverized in an instant, it would only be a waste of effort.

Qiu Qian also discovered this point.

Although her forged blade was incredibly sharp, facing these Corpse Kings of the second rank or higher, their recovery ability was simply too terrifying.

Every swing of her blade, while capable of wounding them, would see the wound heal in the blink of an eye, as if they had never been injured.

"This won't do!" Qiu Qian shouted to Mo Fei, while swinging her blade to parry the Corpse Kings' attacks, "You go quickly, I've already called for a pinpoint strike from the space-based weapon!"

"Captain, if we go, we go together!"

Nan Nan, who had not yet made a move, showed a cold smile on his face and said, "Go? None of you will leave!"

As his voice fell, Nan Nan's figure also rapidly disappeared, and the next moment, he appeared directly in front of Mo Fei.

Before Mo Fei could react, Nan Nan's huge palm directly gripped Mo Fei's head, lifting him up like a small chick.

"I admit, your human technology is indeed infinitely profound, but in the face of absolute power, it is nothing more than a mirage."

"Mo Fei!" Qiu Qian swung her forged blade and charged towards him, but she was quickly intercepted by the combined efforts of a dozen second-rank Corpse Kings.

Pfft!

Mo Fei, gripping his long blade, stabbed it into Nan Nan's body, piercing him through.

But the latter seemed completely oblivious; the alloy long blade appeared to be welded into the Gold-Eyed Corpse King's body, unable to move.

"Tch!"

Nan Nan's mouth curved into a disdainful smile, and with a slight squeeze of his hand, Mo Fei's head was directly crushed by him.

For nano-modified warriors, the head is a critical area, so the skull is protected by super-strong alloy.

But such alloy was useless in front of Nan Nan; he crushed it with one hand.
