Lord of End of World

Chapter 162

As Zheng Chaohe fell, the forcefield disappeared. The people surrounding the forcefield stepped in one step at a time, only to find that two dead bodies were lying in the darkened battle circle and the young man with blood in his hands was standing proudly beside one of the body and giving out a cold atmosphere.

The peak fourth-level high grade and the peak fifth-level low-grade ability users joined forces to open the cheat-like gravity field, yet failed to win against Gong Lixin. What should they do? What would happen today? The leaders were in a trance and the zombies almost succeeded in getting a few of them.

However, at this time, Gong Lixin had no time to settle accounts with them. He threw off the blood from his palm and ordered to his people, “Retreat!”

The people of Ningcheng who had recovered from their happiness, immediately gathered around him. The metal and power ability users rushed to the front of the road. The thunder, wind, fire, water, and ice ability users followed behind them. Afterwards, they frequently released long-ranged attacks to cover them. Wood and earth ability users walked in the middle. When necessary, they used their powers to defend the entire team from attacks from the side.

With their unanimous cooperation, the entire team, like a sharp knife, pierced the encircling of zombies and successfully boarded their cars. The ability users of other bases seized this opportunity and followed closely behind them and escaped safely.

As they left, the zombies screamed and chased the convoy, frequently using their abilities to prevent them from leaving. These were all blocked by shields arranged by several senior ability users.

Running out of the realm of Wucheng, fewer and fewer zombies chased after them and eventually, stopped. Everyone let out a sigh of relief and the happiness of escaping alive flooded their chest. However, thinking that they had completely offended Ningcheng this time, the happiness was quickly replaced by the burning sense of panic. How could they have agreed with Song Hoaxuan’s plan? Joining the forces of all the bases to move against Ningcheng? The mere plan was fart if they thought of it now! Ningcheng’s people were a group of lunatics! Playing conspiracy and tricks with lunatics, they were a group of idiots!

Also, taking control of Gong Lixin within five minutes? The prestigious Young Master Gong was so easy to control? During the meeting, they must have been intoxicated by Song Haoxuan! They were nuts!

While tormenting themselves, the convoy safely arrived at the town and slowly stopped in the open space at the entrance of the town. Hearing the sound of engines, the subordinates left in the town immediately ran out to greet them.

When they went out, there were three hundred people, but only half of them came back and all of them were bathed in blood, making for a miserable sight. They knew what happened without asking. They must have encountered a group of zombie.

Seeing that the number of members of their family was still accounted for with only some minor injuries incurred, Cao Yanan and Sun Tiantian felt relieved and hurriedly greeted them as well as treated their wounds. However, when they saw the ragged shirt, damp black hair and traces of blood still on Gong Lixin’s lips, they were stunned and asked in shock, “What happened?”

Promote at this time? Everyone was shocked. He didn’t advance in the morning or the evening, so why choose now to advance? The town was not far from Wucheng, and the zombies could come at any time. What they should do now is quickly leave this place.

However, even after knowing that it was extremely dangerous to stay, the people of Ningcheng all nodded their heads in unison with no expression of reluctance or blame on their faces. Advancement was hard to come by. If one endured with strong self-control, it may lead to other complications later on. The worst-case scenario is that the person will explode and die. Of course, they wouldn’t make light of Young Master Gong’s life.

To ensure foolproof protection, Song Haoran immediately carried out a series of defensive arrangements outside of Gong Lixin’s small courtyard. The small farmyard and all the way to the third one were all sent up with top ability users as guards.

Sun Tiantian used her ability through her feet to walk around the outside of the wall of the small courtyard, turning the concrete floor under her feet into brown soil five or six meters wide. She squatted down, pinched a bit of dirt to check and then beckoned someone over to fertilize the dirt.

The special fertilizer was rich in iron elements and was evenly sprinkled on the surface of the soil by several ability users. Sun Tiantian flicked her finger and the soil automatically turned over and stirred int the fertilizer, changing from brown to bright red. She nodded in satisfaction. According to their experience in managing king kong vines for a year now, only king kong vines cultivated from this bright, bloody red soil were the strongest and most active and capable of strangling all living creatures.

Seeing the preparations were done, Luo Dahai quickly scattered the seeds of king kong vine around the small courtyard and then quickened their growth as much as possible. The green vines spread like a tide, but were controlled by Luo Dahai and grew in an orderly manner. They climbed up the wall of the farmyard house and strangled any living creatures when they neared.

After the other bases’ ability users secretly investigated Ningcheng’s people, they suppressed their panic and hurried back to their own farmyard to inform the leaders. Has their leader gone crazy? They even dared to provoke the horrifying people of Ningcheng? If one day, Ningcheng’s people were unhappy, they would die from them planting this plant in their base!

“But you said at the beginning that you can surely take care of Young Master Gong and use him as a bargaining chip. Well, now Young Master Gong not only is about to be promoted, but when he finishes, we will all die! You tell me, in this situation, what should we do? This was the idea of you people from Liaocheng and you should take full responsibility!” said Huiqi Bai, the leader of Huicheng, who had fled from the other town.

Bai Qiming was Bao Hong’s younger brother. He was a fourth-level high-grade fire ability user and a member of Song Haoxuan’s most loyal subordinates. Hearing about the death of Master Song and Zheng Chaohe, he was already in a bad mood. So right then, he was more like an ignited bomb and, with a flushed face and fierce look, he said, “If he’s advancing, then that’s good! During promotion, he can’t be interrupted by the outside world. If he gets interrupted, he will explode and die. We will attack their small courtyard together and make sure he dies this time!”

“This...” Huicheng’s leader looked a little flabbergasted, but several other leaders repeatedly waved their hands and refused. Getting on the bad side of the people of Ningcheng, then be endlessly chased by a bunch of ‘dead brain fans’? They won’t do such a stupid thing!

A few people were about to persuade Huicheng’s leader and Bai Qiming when the informants came in. When the informants described the defensive measures around the courtyard in detail, they all swallowed hard.

Fuck! They planted king kong vines all around and more than 70 top ability users were guarding the place heavily. Was this asking them to attack or waiting for them to send themselves to death? Without further persuasion, the leader of Huicheng immediately dispelled the stupid thoughts in his hearts and even the fierce Bai Qiming instantly extinguished his rising arrogance.

“Tell the wounded that had not yet been treated to get in the car and deal with it there! While the Ningcheng’s people are busy, we leave immediately!” The chief of Huicheng said anxiously.

With his lead, the rest of the people did the same and ran to the parked cars with their subordinates. Bai Qiming hesitated for a while, and finally clenched his teeth and followed them.

In the parking lot, He Jin had his arms crossed over his chest and a cold smile on his lips as he stood in front of the entrance to the parking lot, blocking the way of the fleeing people. Behind him stood more than a dozen master ability users, all of whom exuded strong anger making others dare not look at them.

“Sorry, if Lixin doesn’t leave this place, neither do you.” He Jin bowed and smiled, but for some reason, it felt cold. As his words fell, a wood ability user behind him waved his hands and dozens of trucks were entangled with thorns and vines that suddenly emerged from the bottom of the car. The sharp thorns touched the fragile tires as if just waiting to poke a hole into it.

The people who were about to escape were stiff and dared not step forward. Bai Qiming narrowed his eyes and glanced at He Jin and the others one by one; his mood was complex and unreadable.

These people had been more or less cut by zombie claws. The black blood had already dried and clumped up and weren’t immediately cleaned with disinfectant. Seeing that the half-hour time limit to use the disinfectant was about to pass and they didn’t seem to care, either they wanted to die or they were not afraid of zombie poison at all.

However, although Ningcheng’s people were crazy, they were not crazy enough to dig their own grave, so the latter must be the reason. Really, it seemed that the legendary universal antidote does exist!

Thinking of that, Bai Qiming took a step forward and slightly lowered his posture as he said, “It’s also compelling for us to make a decision today, but that does not mean we’ll kill Young Master Gong. Now that our leader is dead, what else do you want? The Earth has been taken over by zombies. As human beings, shouldn’t we be in the same boat and share our troubles? Why do people in Ningcheng get to keep the drugs to fight zombies and not share it with us? Human beings are a whole and we should unite as one if we want to survive in these apocalyptic days.”

After listening to Bai Qiming’s awe-inspiring words, He Jin sneered, but then smiled. He spoke coldly, each word spoken one by one as his tone held mockery, “United as a whole? Wrong, we’ve never been a whole! We are the people of Ningcheng! Our goal is to live well, but the goal your people in Liaocheng is to live on the corpses of others. With the antidote and our pharmacist, when your power grows, we may not even be alive anymore. When I was in Liaocheng, I always thought about when this stinking human hell will be destroyed. Now, it seems that retribution has arrived.”

“You...” Bai Qiming was left speechless for a long while. He took a deep breath and calmed down the anger in his heart. He sneered, “You think just a dozen of you can stop us? Dream on!” As his words fell, he raised his hand and motioned everyone to move and break forward.

“Ahhh!” A scream rang out. Bai Qiming and five or six people who had rushed to the front fell to the ground and twitched about.

He Jin threw away the bottle of blue liquid that he had just emptied and said through sneering lips, “You can try what you want, but look how many blue liquid we have!” Boxes were revealed and inside, the clacking sound of ‘clang clang clang’ showed that there were still a lot of blue liquid inside. A water ability user behind He Jin was even more ruthless and kicked the box directly with one foot, breaking a few bottles inside. He guided the blue liquid around and slowly lifted it into the air, forming a light blue water curtain.

“If you want to get in your cars, go through this layer of water curtain first. If you can get through it, we will let you go immediately.” The water ability user said threateningly. He was not afraid of the blue liquid splashing onto himself. The antidote for the blue liquid was actually the blue potion. As long as he drank a bottle of blue potion, he could immediately recover from his weakness.

Seeing the battle in front of them, several base leaders turned blue with anger and fright. Their subordinates were dissatisfied. Someone with fire ability users slightly raised their arms, wanting to send fireballs towards them, but they saw that the water ability user was faster than him and the water curtain hovered over his head.

“Don’t! We’ll stay. Today, after Young Master Gong exits, everything will be decided by him.” Seeing the blue liquid was about to splash onto his head, the leader of Huicheng shouted out loudly.

“Very well, then please go back.” He Jin said with a smile on his mouth and his subordinates quickly recalled the blue potion.

Several base leaders wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads and walked to their farmyards with their group of subordinates. Bai Qiming, who was paralyzed and lay on the muddy ground, was also carried back by several ability users from Liaocheng. Now that Liaocheng had been completely stepped on by Ningcheng, they lost all their prestige.
