What Mouse Bro saw was a scene that no human in this world had ever witnessed.
The spacious streets were packed with zombies, flooding into the city from all directions. Their eyes were blood-red, saliva dribbling out, and their jaws constantly gnashing, which sent shivers down anyone’s spine.
Some zombies were incredibly strong, inserting their limbs into walls and climbing up high-rise buildings. Others were jumping around on rooftops, resembling frogs.
The zombies, as if commanded, were collectively rushing towards a specific target, merely passing through Ziyu City.
The detector incessantly beeped. First-order zombies, first-order zombies, first-order zombies. Mouse Bro’s heart was trembling, his hands restlessly shifting around. A single sweep of the detector could discover dozens of first-order zombies.
What was even more terrifying was that the second-order zombies were also among the horde, and they weren’t few in number.
“Impossible! Second-order zombies have always been dominant beings. They would never stay together with regular and first-order zombies!”
“Mouse Bro, the detector is broken, ” the underling stiffly said. He wanted to crack a smile, mocking himself for buying a fake product, but he just couldn’t laugh. “The detector says there’s a third-order zombie.”
It was a huge white elephant. Each step it took seemed to make the earth quake. It effortlessly crushed any cars blocking its path into scrap metal.
The other zombies shied away from it, not daring to approach, but still compelled to follow it.
The zombies’ hierarchical order was very strict. High-order zombies could command low-order ones, and the lower-order zombies had no choice but to obey. High-order zombies marshaled the lower ones to break through humans’ safe zones, and that’s how ‘zombie tides’ formed.
“You can still escape now.” A dreadful ghostly figure appeared behind Mouse Bro and his underling.
Mouse Bro jumped in fright and only relaxed after getting a good look at the figures, “It’s Boss Luo Zhu and the Luo Family’s Ancestor!”
Jiang Li wore a perplexed look. What the heck was a “Luo Family’s Ancestor”?
“Take this route while the zombies haven’t surrounded us yet. It will lead you back to the safe zone,” Jiang Li pointed out a clear path for them.
“Is this a zombie tide?” Mouse Bro recalled the concept Luo Ying had once introduced and realized what the zombie army was.
Seeing the Luo Family’s Ancestor nod, Mouse Bro gulped, grabbed the dumbfounded underling, and fled. They had to return to the safe zone and report this.
Only after Mouse Bro left, did Jiang Li speak, “He’s gone. You can come out now.”
Luo Ying emerged from another room, watching Mouse Bro’s departing figure with a complicated expression.
In their past life, Mouse Bro was his good friend. Despite his shifty appearance, Mouse Bro was a loyal good guy who had once saved Luo Ying.
In that life, Mouse Bro and Luo Ying had come to explore Ziyu City together but were discovered by a second-order zombie. Mouse Bro had felt it was his responsibility since he was the one who brought Luo Ying there. He sacrificed his life to buy Luo Ying a chance to escape.
In other words, according to the original trajectory, Mouse Bro would have been killed by that second-order zombie three days ago when he arrived in Ziyu City. But Luo Ying arrived ahead of schedule, killed all the second-order zombies, and saved Mouse Bro.
What Luo Ying did not anticipate was that Mouse Bro would run here again before the arrival of the zombie tide.
He really knew how to get into trouble.
He did not wish to face Mouse Bro directly. Even though they were once good friends, those were just Luo Ying’s memories. In this life, Mouse Bro treated him with idolization and a sense of distance, which made him uncomfortable. That’s why he asked his sister and Mr. Jiang to deal with Mouse Bro. Jiang Li extended his divine sense to cover the entire city. Millions of zombies had already entered the array’s coverage range.
“Activate the array.”
Luo Ying and Luo Zhu injected spiritual energy at the array’s focal point. Their Water-Fire and Ice spiritual roots produced spiritual energy from Dantian, spreading it throughout their bodies, and out from their palms. A large and complicated array was silently activated.
It was as if an invisible thread had connected all the buried brain cores. The cores lit up one by one, weaving back and forth until they formed a large net. The horde of zombies was like fish, fated to become prey from the moment the net appeared.
Had anyone been viewing the city from the sky, they would have noticed glowing spots appearing throughout the city. When connected, these spots formed a geometric pattern that was both beautiful and powerful. Not a single spot was redundant – it was the wisdom of the bygone sages personified.
Even though slaughter was not advocated in Jiuzhou prefecture, that did not mean they did not possess large-scale arrays. On the contrary, Jiuzhou prefecture had plenty of such arrays.
Before the Ascension to Immortality Ladder disappeared, demon cultivators committed many atrocities. Many talented ones often performed blood sacrifices. It was only due to the fear that the righteous immortals would disapprove of an excessive death toll in Jiuzhou that the demon cultivators dared not set up catastrophic arrays everywhere in Jiuzhou.
These arrays were the valuable wealth left by the demon cultivators.
Invisible sword qi filled the air, emitting a chilly aura. Luo Ying and Luo Zhu acted as the major and minor focal points of the array. Luo Ying, being slightly weaker, occupied the minor spot, while Luo Zhu, being at the Foundation Establishment stage, occupied the major spot. The Shenluo Grand Demon Array was thus led by Luo Zhu.
Sword qi dashed across the sky, decapitating zombies. The ground shook, and buildings collapsed.
Each chilling sword qi accurately beheaded a zombie. Countless severed heads rolled over the ground, like a carpet of glass balls.
The sword qi was so swift and fierce that the zombies did not have time to react before they were decapitated.
The array moved continuously, exhausting all the spiritual energy in the brain cores.
Jiang Li even asked the siblings to set up a Spirit Gathering Array beneath the city. Now, the city’s spiritual energy concentration far exceeded that of other regions. The spiritual energy accumulated over these days was also put to use.
The array was like a raging fire, with the spiritual energy gathered by the Spirit Gathering Array as fuel. Its power was beyond terrifying when thrown onto it.
Neither ordinary zombies, nor first- or second-order zombies, could withstand this long-planned single strike!
If this were in Jiuzhou, Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishment stage cultivators in such a situation would undoubtedly have various means like spiritual charms, spiritual treasures, etc. to protect themselves, and the array’s power would be greatly reduced. But these brainless zombies did not know any such methods. When faced with the grand array left by the mighty demon cultivators of Jiuzhou, they only had one choice — to await their slaughter!
A few minutes later, the zombies fell to the ground one after another, filling the entire city with a nauseating stench of blood.
Countless brain cores were hidden within the zombies’ skulls, awaiting their master to reap the fruits of victory. Yet, Luo Ying and Luo Zhu did not collect these prizes. Instead, they fixed their gazes on the only remaining zombie in the area.
A white elephant zombie. Third-order.
This was the adversary they had initially expected. Jiang Li did not consider including the third-order zombie when he laid out the array. His only goal was to harvest a crop of second-order and below zombies.
This third-order zombie was a perfect target for the siblings to practice.
“Kill.” Luo Zhu softly said, her tone flat and even, entering into battle mode. “Kill!” Luo Ying roared as he charged towards the furious white elephant zombie..
