Lin Wenjie felt dizzy and disoriented. Her head was bleeding from a blow, but she forcefully kicked open the car door and crawled out, stumbling as she walked back.
Not far ahead, a low wooden wall suddenly appeared on the ground. The military vehicle crashed into the wooden wall, spinning in the air like a washing machine.
Yin Cheng and the others crawled out of the car as well. Tao Shuang and Ai Qing hurriedly chased after Lin Wenjie. “Sister Lin Wenjie, you can’t go!”
The two tried to pull Lin Wenjie back.
Lin Wenjie shook them off and spoke resolutely, “No one can stop me! Today, they must die!”
Tao Shuang and Ai Qing: “…”
Wait, what if they don’t die? What will happen to you then?
Wen Qingling: “…”
Is it interesting to talk to oneself in front of the person involved?
Wen Qingling found the military vehicle too slow and decided to abandon it. He started sprinting at top speed.
On the other side, Xiao Hen and the others, who were rushing forward, were ambushed. The small soldier quickly evaded the shells, narrowly avoiding a rollover. The military vehicle was left battered and dirty from the explosion.
Xiao Hen gave a thumbs-up to his father in the chaos. “Impressive, running out of the city with no regard for whether you can come back or not? Did you think about that? Look at the resistance they’ve prepared, one after another.”
Xiao Hen kicked open the car door and held onto Old Xue, dragging him under the car. The military vehicle was too conspicuous, and since the enemy had an energy cannon, they couldn’t stay in the vehicle and be targets. Of course, the enemy might also have psychic ability users, or else they wouldn’t know that they were all in this vehicle!
The small soldier helped Xiao Jiang out of the car, and Xiao Hen dragged Old Xue toward the grass on the side of the road. They hadn’t run far when the military vehicle behind them was destroyed by an explosion.
The arriving convoy immediately entered a state of battle, and both sides exchanged gunfire.
The enemy’s firepower was fierce, and the First District was being suppressed, hiding behind the military vehicle, not daring to show their heads.
The warriors from the Third District had been fighting until now, and none of them had even one energy crystal left. Their energy weapons were out of power, and they were left with burning sticks.
Xiao Hen felt a headache just looking at the situation. The lurking Undead hadn’t been eliminated yet, and now they were facing another ambush. With the combination of both, many soldiers would likely be lost here.
Xiao Hen really wanted to let out a roar right now, he really, really wanted to find some help. It would be better than the current situation of being suppressed and attacked.
He didn’t know if there were any zombie brothers nearby. The current location was incredibly awkward, right in between Frosty City and Central Megacity, almost within the range of the regular patrols from Central Mega City. There wouldn’t normally be any roaming zombies in the area, and if any appeared, they would be shot.
Xiao Hen felt overwhelmed by the situation. He looked at the only small soldier with them. “You guard them and don’t let anyone get close to them.”
The small soldier responded, “Yes!”
Regardless of whether there were zombie brothers or not, they had to give it a try.
Xiao Hen disappeared from his original position and blended into the deep woods. Then, he faced the enemy soldiers hiding in the woods.
Xiao Hen: “…”
Damn it!
His figure disappeared once again.
The ambushing soldiers: “…”
Have they been discovered? Should they continue to lie in wait?
Should they ask the “Corpse Mother”?
The “Corpse Mother” was a bit busy at the moment, being chased and beaten by an ugly asshole who suddenly claimed to be an Undead… no, the one chasing and beating.
Lu Tianjin was regretting it now, regretting it very much.
He had heard Wen Qingling say “weak chickens pecking at each other” and thought that Xu Shengfei’s strength should be comparable to his. Moreover, there was a curse that prevented Xu Shengfei from escaping. So he disregarded everything and attacked. As a result, he was the one being chased and beaten.
Xu Shengfei completely overwhelmed Lu Tianjin in strength. Lu Tianjin was thrown around like a little chick, rolling far away.
Lu Tianjin almost broke his neck. Seeing Xu Shengfei about to leave, it struggled to stand up again and bravely pounced on her, grabbing one of her legs and biting down. Even through the thick black robe, it managed to tear a piece of flesh from her leg.
Xu Shengfei kicked back, sending Lu Tianjin flying with one kick. With a leap, she had already gone far away.
Xu Shengfei’s speed was fast, and she rushed in one direction. The accompanying Undead all jumped forward like fleas, leaping rapidly. They were all very fast.
Lu Tianjin: “…”
Lu Tianjin struggled to get up and chased after them. Along the way, he saw the familiar zombie brother still wandering around. Without hesitation,he jumped over and kicked him away.
Traitor! Scum! Die!
Xiao Hen appeared on a thick and sturdy tree. There shouldn’t be anyone ambushing him this time. He didn’t sense many zombies nearby, but he still shouted, hoping that at least one would come to his aid.
Whether the other zombies heard Xiao Hen’s roar or not, Wen Qingling definitely did. He divided his psychic energy and scanned the other side, wanting to know what happened to Xiao Hen that made him roar. He then saw a swarm of fleas rushing in one direction.
The small soldier’s hand trembled as he held onto the gun. He watched as a mass of darkness rushed towards them, like a swarm of locusts. It was terrifying.
Old Xue was already unconscious, and Xiao Jiang’s leg was broken and bleeding heavily, but he could still barely maintain consciousness. He propped himself against a tree stump and started shooting, with the small soldier opening fire alongside him.
The two of them were still too slow in opening fire, and the zombies were too fast. Xiao Hen emerged from the forest, intercepting the charging zombies. There were too many zombies for Xiao Hen to handle alone. The zombies that broke through the defense line could only be dealt with by the small soldier and Xiao Jiang.
Xiao Hen used his spatial ability without reservation. The previous battles with the evolved Corpse Tiger, zombies, and corpse monsters had already depleted a large portion of his ability, and it hadn’t fully recovered yet. Now he was using it extensively, and Xiao Hen could already feel the strain. But he couldn’t retreat, as his father, Xiao Jiang, and many other soldiers were behind him. He had to hold the line!
But as a single person, he was destined to be unable to reverse the situation. The zombies that were ambushed in the depths of the forest had all emerged, leaping high in the air like fleas, pouncing on the soldiers of the Third District.
Xiao Hen’s long knife never stopped, harvesting the lives of one zombie after another. His heart had already turned cold, even if there were zombies nearby, it would still take time for them to arrive. But they had run out of time!
“Be careful!” a hoarse and unpleasant voice shouted.
Xiao Hen felt the killing intent behind him and quickly turned around. A withered claw was already reaching toward him. He blocked it with his long knife, and the ugly claw collided with the blade, producing a metallic sound.
Xiao Hen swiftly withdrew his knife, but the claw remained intact while the blade was missing a few pieces.
Xiao Hen wanted to retreat, but just as he appeared in mid-air, he was pressed back to the ground by the black-robed figure that charged at him head-on.
The black-robed figure’s combat skills and awareness were far inferior to Xiao Hen’s, but she surpassed him in speed and strength. Whenever Xiao Hen made contact with her, he would be forced back.
Unable to go to Xiao Jiang’s side for support, Xiao Hen could only shout to Lu Tianjin, “Go help my father!”
Lu Tianjin, who had just arrived, looked at the densely packed zombies rushing over and realized that he might not be able to fulfill this crucial task.
“I’ll stall her. You go… damn it!” Lu Tianjin didn’t finish his sentence before he was kicked away by the sudden appearance of the black-robed figure.
Seeing his father and Old Xue about to be overwhelmed by the zombie army, Xiao Hen, despite his injuries, swiftly dashed forward. The withered claws of the black-robed figure tore open several wounds on Xiao Hen’s back, but he disappeared from his original position, reappearing in front of Xiao Jiang and Old Xue, facing the swarming zombie army alone.
The ground in front of Xiao Hen suddenly collapsed, and numerous thick vines shot up, piercing through the zombie army.
The Vine Hell!
“Boom!”
A figure descended from the sky, crashing down like a meteor, causing the ground to crack and debris to fly, sending a wave of zombies flying!
The person who landed spread open his arms, assuming a perfect free-fall posture.
“You maggots, you have three seconds to run. Once three seconds pass, your ancestors will be slaughtered.”
Everyone present: “…”
Xiao Hen’s tense nerves relaxed, and a smile couldn’t help but curl up at the corners of his mouth as he glanced at his dumbfounded father.
See that? My wife!
“1…” Wen Qingling began to count.
The nearby forest rustled, with every tree trembling as if in urgent need of relief.
All the zombies began to retreat, instinctively fearing Wen Qingling.
Xu Shengfei, concealed beneath the black robe, was completely dumbfounded. She never expected Wen Qingling to appear here! Even though he wore a hat and a mask, hiding his face, she could never forget his voice!
She trembled all over, overwhelmed by boundless hatred that drove her to madness!
She looked up to the sky and let out a hoarse and unpleasant roar. The hesitant and fearful zombies and corpse monsters, fearless of death, charged forward.
Wen Qingling reached out his hand and said, “Come!”
The ground began to shake violently as one tree after another shook their bodies and pulled themselves out of the soil. With gnashing teeth and claws, their roots swung wildly as they uprooted themselves and ran madly toward the zombie army. Countless roots stretched out like numerous tentacles as the trees transformed into road rollers, crushing everything in their path. Any zombies or corpse monsters left on the ground were plowed through, and those who reacted quickly and leaped into the air were immediately struck down by the tree branches, their faces pressed into the ground and filled with mud.
Everyone who witnessed this scene widened their eyes in disbelief!
This scene completely exceeded the imagination of everyone present!
They thought that having zombies, mutated plants and animals, and supernatural abilities in the apocalypse was already fantastical enough, but they never expected something even more fantastical—the trees. What was going on with these trees?!
Not only the zombies and soldiers felt despair in their hearts, but even Xiao Hen also wore a bewildered expression.
Xiao Hen: “These trees…”
Wen Qingling slumped his face and said, “A newly discovered gameplay.”
He could control the life and death of plants, so naturally, he could control trees as well. Being of the Wood element, he was even more proficient in manipulating trees. Coupled with the new ability he discovered just now—injecting a strand of his psychic energy into the trees—the trees could fight like countless copies of him…
Of course, the fighting style might be slightly different.
Just as Wen Qingling finished his thought, a tree, thinking it was a human, suddenly jumped high into the air… but failed and fell to the ground with a loud “crack,” knocking down a few zombies. Its roots frantically dug into the soil, finally righting itself, and continued to crush.
Xiao Hen: “…”
Wen Qingling turned around abruptly, his gaze ice-cold.
Xiao Hen: “…What?”
Wen Qingling leaped lightly and arrived by Xiao Hen’s side. Xiao Hen’s clothes behind him were already soaked, and the wound on his back was still healing, bleeding not yet fully stopped.
Wen Qingling’s eyes were filled with a chilling aura. “You’re injured.”
Xiao Hen felt a warmth in his heart. “Yes, I accidentally got scratched.”
Wen Qingling raised his hand and pressed a sphere of energy on Xiao Hen’s back. “So useless.”
Xiao Hen: “…”
Wen Qingling said, “Wait for it. The Lord of the City will avenge you.”
Xiao Hen smiled. “Thank you, Lord of the City.”
If he hadn’t been worried about Xiao Jiang and Old Xue, he might not have gotten injured and wouldn’t have lost to Xu Shengfei.
Wen Qingling squatted beside Old Xue and stared at him for a while before looking up and asking Xiao Hen, “Your dad?”
Xiao Hen: “…Not him.”
Xiao Jiang: “…” His dad is right here.

The hesitant and fearful zombies and corpse monsters, fearless of death, charged forward.Wen Qingling reached out his hand and said, Come!The ground began to shake violently as one tree after another shook their bodies and pulled themselves out of the soil. With gnashing teeth and claws, their roots swung wildly as they uprooted themselves and ran madly toward the zombie army. Countless roots stretched out like numerous tentacles as the trees transformed into road rollers, crushing everything in their path. Any zombies or corpse monsters left on the ground were plowed through, and those who reacted quickly and leaped into the air were immediately struck down by the tree branches, their faces pressed into the ground and filled with mud.Everyone who witnessed this scene widened their eyes in disbelief!This scene completely exceeded the imagination of everyone present!They thought that having zombies, mutated plants and animals, and supernatural abilities in the apocalypse was already fantastical enough, but they never expected something even more fantasticalthe trees. What was going on with these trees?!Not only the zombies and soldiers felt despair in their hearts, but even Xiao Hen also wore a bewildered expression.Xiao Hen: These treesWen Qingling slumped his face and said, A newly discovered gameplay.He could control the life and death of plants, so naturally, he could control trees as well. Being of the Wood element, he was even more proficient in manipulating trees. Coupled with the new ability he discovered just nowinjecting a strand of his psychic energy into the treesthe trees could fight like countless copies of himOf course, the fighting style might be slightly different.Just as Wen Qingling finished his thought, a tree, thinking it was a human, suddenly jumped high into the air but failed and fell to the ground with a loud crack, knocking down a few zombies. Its roots frantically dug into the soil, finally righting itself, and continued to crush.Xiao Hen: Wen Qingling turned around abruptly, his gaze ice-cold.Xiao Hen: What?Wen Qingling leaped lightly and arrived by Xiao Hen's side. Xiao Hen's clothes behind him were already soaked, and the wound on his back was still healing, bleeding not yet fully stopped.Wen Qingling's eyes were filled with a chilling aura. You're injured.Xiao Hen felt a warmth in his heart. Yes, I accidentally got scratched.Wen Qingling raised his hand and pressed a sphere of energy on Xiao Hen's back. So useless.Xiao Hen: Wen Qingling said, Wait for it. The Lord of the City will avenge you.Xiao Hen smiled. Thank you, Lord of the City.If he hadn't been worried about Xiao Jiang and Old Xue, he might not have gotten injured and wouldn't have lost to Xu Shengfei.Wen Qingling squatted beside Old Xue and stared at him for a while before looking up and asking Xiao Hen, Your dad?Xiao Hen: Not him.Xiao Jiang: His dad is right here.
