As night deepened and the entire camp fell into a deep sleep, in Chaihe Town, groups of zombies quietly stood, their vacant eyes fixed on the enormous zombie at the front.
This was the corpse king of Chaihe Town.
However, amusingly, only two second-level zombies remained by the corpse king's side.
Second-level zombies were hard to evolve, and after Wen Yu's commotion during the day, even the apparent overlord of a small town faced the embarrassing situation of having no zombies to command.
"Roar."
With the corpse king's furious roar, the entire army of zombies slowly began to move!
...
"Qiangzi, have you heard? That second-level professional, Wen Yu, who came here a while back, killed dozens of second-level zombies in the town today, and rumor has it he even chopped off the corpse king's arm!"
"Brother Zhang, I heard someone say that this person has already killed the corpse king!"
"Tsk tsk, no matter how you put it, this Wen Yu is quite formidable!"
"Isn't that right! If you ask me, the humans of Chaihe Town finally have hope!"
At the entrance of the camp, two guards on patrol were squatting side by side, discussing Wen Yu, hope, and the future.
"Qiangzi, did you hear any sounds?"
"What sounds?"
"It seems like someone is walking!"
"Impossible, who would come to this desolate place in the middle of the night?"
"I think so too..."
Before Brother Zhang could finish speaking, a massive figure suddenly slammed into them like a cannonball, its powerful right arm coming down.
"Boom."
A loud noise echoed as the soft soil exploded into a giant pit, and the person known as Brother Zhang had already vanished without a trace!
Blood and flesh splattered, landing directly on Qiangzi's face.
Qiangzi stared dumbfounded at the suddenly appearing corpse king, plopping down onto the filthy ground, his face pale, unable to utter a word!
...
Wen Yu was startled awake by a cacophony of sounds in his sleep.
"What’s going on?"
Wen Yu instantly felt a chill.
Sun Ruixing, who was still at the door, shook his head at Wen Yu, indicating he didn’t know what was happening.
Wen Yu steadied himself and began to assess his injuries.
The wounds had scabbed over extensively, and at the current rate, they would heal completely in just one night.
Unfortunately, Wen Yu couldn't shake the bad feeling in his heart.
"Let's go, Old Sun, let's go outside and take a look."
Wen Yu immediately stood up and limped out of the room.
Outside, the crowd had already fallen into panic. Professionals were rushing towards the camp entrance with steel knives in hand, while ordinary people were fleeing for their lives towards the rear.
"What is happening?"
Wen Yu grabbed a professional and asked directly.
This professional clearly knew Wen Yu's name and trembled as he replied, "The corpse king is leading the horde of zombies to attack the camp!"
Wen Yu's brows furrowed instantly; this was not a good time.
The dim visibility greatly weakened humanity's advantage.
Releasing the professional, Wen Yu turned directly to Sun Ruixing and said, "Old Sun, you go ahead to check the situation. I’ll exchange for some items and come over soon."
Sun Ruixing understood Wen Yu needed healing potions and said nothing, grabbing his gear and walking towards the camp entrance.
Wen Yu limped to the Exchange Stone Pillar.
"Check points."
"Remaining points: 5418."
This was not much different from what Wen Yu had expected. The harvest during the day was indeed considerable!
He immediately exited combat mode and summoned the One-Eyed.
In the soul realm space, the One-Eyed's injuries had completely healed.
"First, check the situation ahead. If things look bad, notify me in time!"
"Woof woof."
The One-Eyed barked twice and dashed towards the camp entrance.
Wen Yu refocused on the Exchange Stone Pillar.
First, he exchanged for a medium healing potion, consuming 500 points.
He drank it in one go, and his wounds healed rapidly, but it wasn’t completely restored. Wen Yu moved his limbs slightly and found that his leg was still a bit inconvenient.
