When Wen Qingling and Xiao Hen rushed back, it was almost dark. By now, the sky had completely turned black, but they still couldn’t enter the city. Wen Qingling continued to enjoy his braised meat to his heart’s content.

Wen Qingling lay on the car roof, resting his chin on his crossed arms. He sighed, “After tonight, how many people will be left in Central City?”

This was also a concern for Xiao Hen. Now, the Undead and monsters had almost all gathered in Central City. It would be best if they could eliminate them completely within the city. If they managed to escape and spread out, it would be really troublesome.

Xiao Hen appeared behind a guard, startling him with his burnt-out appearance. When the guard saw it was Colonel Xiao who had returned, he was overjoyed. “Colonel, the General wants to see you immediately. The situation is urgent.”

Xiao Hen glanced at the tightly closed gate. How could he get in?

Xiao Hen said, “No one is allowed to leave the city! Go back, all of you!”

The survivors who were preparing to evacuate immediately erupted in protest. “The whole city is full of monsters now. Are you asking us to go back and die?!”

“Do you still have any humanity left? Are you trying to trap us inside the city?!”

“If you really care about us, let us leave. We’ll come back when you’ve cleaned up the monsters!”

Xiao Hen’s face grew stern. “I’m not negotiating with you. This is an order!”

“Who do you think you are? We’re not soldiers, you have no right to order us around!”

Suddenly, the ground at the city gate collapsed, and numerous thick tentacles appeared out of thin air, blocking the gate. The tentacles danced in the air, attacking the crowd trying to come out.

Xiao Hen quickly pulled the guard to dodge, and the crowd screamed and ran back. They watched as the thick vines pierced through from their sides, causing everyone to panic, thinking they were about to die. They desperately ran back into the city, only stopping when they were out of the range of the tentacle attacks.

Everyone turned back in shock and saw several people being pierced by the thick vines, struggling desperately. The vines arrogantly moved, showing them the consequences of not listening.

Wen Qingling jumped down from the car roof and said, “If force can solve the problem, then stop the useless babbling.”

The shocked crowd suddenly heard someone shout, “Someone is killing! The soldiers from District Three are killing people!!”

“Let’s fight back! I don’t believe they’ll dare to kill us all!”

“Let’s fight back!”

The crowd grew restless and started shouting, ready to fight for their lives, but none of them dared to actually rush forward.

The city gate guards were nervous. They had been trying to calm everyone down and avoid using force, fearing it would backfire. But now, someone had started attacking without warning, openly impaling people. Were they forcing them to revolt? Wen Qingling sneered, leaping into the midst of the vine group. One of the thickest tentacles obediently held him up. He said, “I was worried you wouldn’t fight back. Come, let me give you a taste of your daddy’s killing.”

Everyone: “…”

The guards: “…”

Xiao Hen pointed at the people impaled by the vines and said loudly, “These are all Undead, the monsters you’re talking about! There are more of them among you. Instead of gathering here, be cautious of the people around you and beware of ambushes!”

The Undead hiding in the crowd, wanting to sneak out of the city, realized their cover had been blown. They no longer pretended and started biting the people around them, trying to create chaos and break out of the city.

Without the control of the “Corpse Mother,” they were independent individuals. As long as they could leave alive and create a group of corpse monsters and slaves, they could be the bosses. There was no one who wouldn’t want such a good life!

The crowd screamed and tried to escape, but they were blocked at the city gate, with limited space to move. The screams continued one after another as the vines, like cats smelling blood, shot out and impaled the nearby corpse people, dragging them back.

Xiao Hen jumped onto the vines and aimed with his sniper rifle, shooting and killing the Undead mixed in the crowd. With the two of them suppressing the situation, the crowd narrowly avoided total annihilation before fleeing into the city.

“Enter the city!” Wen Qingling shouted.

Wen Qingling was the first to leap into the city, followed by Xiao Hen and the gate guards. Little Kui Bao No. 2, who had been left behind in the car, howled and chased after them. It nearly got locked outside the gate, and the little fellow was very angry. It ran over and kicked Xiao Hen with its small feet while crying out: You forgot about this baby! You locked this baby up and didn’t play with this baby!

Xiao Heng looked puzzled, not understanding why Kui Bao No. 2 was throwing a tantrum.

Wen Qingling, who understood the little one’s language, glanced coldly at it, causing Kui Bao No. 2 to freeze. “You dare to hit my person? Are you tired of living?”

Kui Bao No. 2: “…”

Feeling wronged, it crouched down, touched Xiao Hen’s kicked leg, and blew on it, looking pitifully at Wen Qingling.

Wen Qingling coldly snorted and ignored it.

Kui Bao No. 2: “…” QAQ

The gaze of the city gate guards toward Wen Qingling was filled with complexity. Was it acceptable for an adult to bully a little child? This little one looked to be only seven or eight months old, wearing nothing but a hat. It appeared very pitiful without clothes or shoes.

Xiao Hen picked up the chubby baby and held it in his arms, quickly leaving with Wen Qingling and heading towards the headquarters of District Three.

District Three, which was once peaceful, had now become chaotic. People ran amok on the streets, monsters rampaged, and the military units hunting monsters were everywhere. The sounds of gunfire were constant. Simply walking on the streets could result in being accidentally injured.

Wen Qingling spotted a military vehicle and separated from Xiao Heng. He was going to the Fifth District to meet with Mi Yan and Luo Fengjue. He entrusted Kui Bao No. 2 to Xiao Hen and, before leaving, threatened the chubby baby not to spray poisonous mist randomly, or else it would get beaten up.

The little chubby baby felt wronged but behaved obediently.

Once Wen Qingling left, it started to scramble around in the car, rolling and tumbling, and Xiao Hen couldn’t control the little thing at all.

Wen Qingling took a straight path toward the location of Lei Yuxiao in the Fifth District.

The entire Central City was engulfed in chaos, and the Fifth District was no exception. Lei Yuxiao had already been summoned by Lei Jiang for a meeting and was not at the villa. Guards were stationed outside the villa to protect Mi Yan and Luo Fengjue.

When Wen Qingling arrived, he almost couldn’t enter. The reason was that he had lost his hat and mask, revealing his true appearance. The person responsible for protecting them doubted his identity and took out a blood-testing device to confirm that he was not an Undead before allowing him to pass.

Wen Qingling’s blood was precious, so how could he contribute it to a blood testing device?

Wen Qingling: “Da Bai, come out!”

Da Bai, who was dozing off in the living room, abruptly lifted its head and excitedly bit onto Mi Yan’s collar, dragging him outside. Mi Yan, who was still eating fruit, was carried away.

Da Bai was thrilled to see Wen Qingling and pounced on him, but Wen Qingling held down its big head.

Mi Yan fell to the ground, dropping the plate of fruit which scattered all over. He lay flat on the ground, feeling dispirited. “I’m done for. I’ll rely on you as my main support for the rest of my life. Serve me with good food and drinks. I won’t get up today!”

Da Bai tilted its head and looked at the person lying flat on the ground. Sensing a potential scam, it turned its head and jumped around on Mi Yan, even digging the ground, seemingly trying to bury him directly.

Mi Yan, like a monkey, quickly got up, spitting out the dirt in his mouth, and looked at the husky possessing the body of a certain big cat. “It’s not a cat! It’s a dog!”

Da Bai: “…”

Da Bai wagged its butt, continuing to scratch the ground with its hind legs, splashing Mi Yan’s face with dirt.

Mi Yan: “…”

Luo Fengjue, who chased after them, “…”

Wen Qingling: “You’re clearly a person, yet you’re trying to scam a cat. Aren’t you asking for trouble?”

Mi Yan: “…”

I’m sorry, I forgot. It’s now the era where animals are smarter than humans.

Wen Qingling received the person and was about to get into the car to leave when he saw two speeding vehicles. Lei Yuxiao got out of the car and immediately recognized Wen Qingling at a glance, judging by his clothes and figure.

Lei Yuxiao hadn’t expected that the person under the hat and mask would be so young. He doubted whether this person was of legal age.

Lei Yuxiao asked, “Are you Wen Qingling?”

Wen Qingling raised an eyebrow and replied, “Yes, what’s the matter?”

The people who had followed Lei Yuxiao were ready to take action but were stopped by him.

Wen Qingling glanced at them and said, “I smell something unfriendly.”

Someone couldn’t help but angrily say, “Wen Qingling! You have big ambitions! How dare you…”

Lei Yuxiao cast a cold glance at the person, who immediately fell silent.

When Lei Yuxiao approached, he also had doubts. But when he saw Wen Qingling’s clear and penetrating eyes, he trusted his instincts. Wen Qingling didn’t seem like a scheming person.

It is said that a person’s appearance reflects their heart, and Wen Qingling didn’t seem like someone with calculations and schemes.

Lei Yuxiao said, “There are rumors now that you are the cause of the chaos in Central City. Is it true?”

Wen Qingling replied, “If you insist on saying it, then I do bear some responsibility.”

If killing the “Corpse Mother” counted.

“He admitted it himself! Don’t waste time talking to him. Just capture him, and the crisis in the city will naturally be resolved!”

Lei Yuxiao was a cultured person but had a strong desire for control. This person kept interrupting him, which had already displeased him. “Which department are you from? What’s your name?”

Currently, all the districts were in chaos, and all military forces were busy hunting the Undead. When Lei Yuxiao arrived, he randomly pointed at a few people who he didn’t know much about. How did undisciplined individuals like them manage to enter the military?

Wen Qingling calmly said, “Instead of asking about the department and name, you should be asking how many accomplices he has in the Fifth District Military Headquarters.”

Lei Yuxiao was stunned. In that moment of confusion, the talkative soldier had already made a move, biting at Lei Yuxiao’s neck…

They were too close, not to mention Lei Yuxiao, even the person standing next to him couldn’t react in time. Just as the soldier’s sharp teeth were about to touch Lei Yuxiao’s skin, the soldier suddenly stopped and sprayed out blood.

Lei Yuxiao was pushed away by an invisible force and stumbled to regain his balance. He saw a wooden spike that had appeared on the ground, piercing through the soldier’s chest.

“Biting someone in front of me? You’ve got guts.”

Everyone was shocked by this incident. They hadn’t expected that even among a few people, an Undead could infiltrate their ranks.

These monsters really could infiltrate anywhere.

The Undead laughed maniacally, “Wen Qingling, do you think you alone can kill all the Undead? If you keep lingering here, your Ling City… will be finished! Hahaha…”

Wen Qingling replied, “Don’t overestimate yourselves. You shrimp soldiers and crab generals also want to threaten my city? Even your ‘Corpse Mother’ couldn’t do it, so how can you?”

After saying this, Wen Qingling suddenly realized that Central City probably couldn’t contain these Undeads. Some must have escaped, and there were probably quite a few, or else they wouldn’t have set their sights on Ling City.

Xu Shengfei was truly restless even in death. Wen Qingling didn’t know what information she had passed on to these corpse people, but it definitely wouldn’t make his life peaceful.

Wen Qingling clicked his tongue, feeling annoyed.

Lei Yuxiao said, “Thank you for saving my life. I will repay this debt.”

Wen Qingling stared at him for two seconds and replied, “No need for repayment. You should quickly clean up these things. They’re like a bunch of fleas, very annoying.”

Lei Yuxiao felt helpless. They also wanted to clean up, but these things were highly infectious. Kill one, and ten more would appear. They were indeed a nuisance.

Wen Qingling said, “Start by killing the Undeads. The corpse monsters and corpse slaves are created by them. If you eliminate all the Undead, the monsters and slaves won’t be a threat. They have no thinking ability, making the clean-up easier.”

Lei Yuxiao said, “It’s chaotic right now, and we can’t individually check every drop of blood. We can’t investigate every corpse person.”

Wen Qingling suggested, “Let me teach you a method. While cleaning up the Undead, why not wipe out the First District in the process?”

Lei Yuxiao replied, “…”

Others remained silent.

Wen Qingling continued, “The First District is the source. If you don’t eliminate them, you’re just waiting for them to wipe you out.”

Wen Qingling’s words were like a prophecy. The previously scattered Undead, monsters, and slaves began to act with a plan. They caused chaos in various districts, making them preoccupied with their own problems. Meanwhile, the First District’s army started moving, with the Undead, monsters, and slaves leading the charge. The First District’s ambitions were finally revealed.

The First District’s first target wasn’t the Third District or the neighboring Fifth District, but the Second District, which had intersections with the First District!

The Fifth District was fully invaded by Undeads, monsters, and slaves, unable to obstruct the First District’s passage. The Second District was still busy cleaning up the undead, monsters, and slaves when the First District’s army directly attacked.

The Fifth District immediately sent people to inform the other districts of the First District’s actions. However, the telephone lines were cut, and the messenger was assassinated by the Undead. The First District tried to delay the time as much as possible. The later the other districts found out, the higher their chances of success.
