“Faster, run!”
Seeing the zombies starting to fill the pits regardless of casualties, Zang Pengfei immediately shouted orders.
Fortunately, the professionals were not ordinary people who were afraid to fight. Upon witnessing the zombies' behavior, they did not panic but quickly turned and ran towards the camp.
Without the presence of second-level zombies, these professionals had a considerable chance of escaping as long as they got out of the corpse king's line of sight.
The gap in mobility was significant, and more importantly, with tens of thousands of zombies spread out in Chaihe Town, it truly was not too many!
As the professionals continued to retreat, the corpse king grew furious.
What was the purpose of leading his subordinates today? It was to destroy this camp, to avenge the little brothers he had painstakingly nurtured, and to kill the human who had rampaged on his territory in the morning.
Yet, here he was, having killed very few humans, but losing all of his remaining two capable assistants in the process!
This made him feel utterly foolish!
Losing face was one thing, but the loss of dignity was critical.
This absolutely could not stand.
Finally, rage overcame his instincts.
The corpse king took a few steps back, letting out a furious roar, then, with a burst of strength in his legs, he charged forward like a battle chariot.
With his robust physique, the explosive power he possessed was terrifying. With a powerful push of his right leg, his massive body soared into the air, quickly crossing the line of fire.
Reaching the opposite bank effortlessly, a momentary look of realization flashed in the corpse king's eyes: “So this ditch is so narrow; I wish I had realized it sooner.”
Turning back, the corpse king gazed at the few remaining individuals who had not had the chance to flee.
The one-eyed man, Zang Pengfei, Sun Aotian, and Sun Ruixing.
...
The few remaining people felt the pressure of the corpse king's murderous aura causing their pores to constrict.
The one-eyed man was the first to react, realizing that the corpse king before him was definitely not someone he couldn't contend with!
Currently, the one-eyed man's physical quality was around 15 points, while the recent leap from the corpse king had roughly revealed its physical quality.
Around 40 points! Not yet at level three!
But zombies did not possess skills!
As long as the one-eyed man could accumulate injuries and wait for his destiny fight ability to fully unleash, he had a chance to fight to the death against this corpse king.
As long as he could hold his ground against the opponent, the one-eyed man saw no need to flee.
As for the massive crowd of ordinary zombies behind the corpse king, the one-eyed man didn't take them seriously at all.
Without the addition of skills, an over one-fold difference in physical quality resulted in extremely powerful defenses and instant kill effects!
With a direct leap, the one-eyed man did not immediately attack the corpse king; his current physical quality made it easy for him to suffer a brutal death at the hands of the corpse king.
So, the one-eyed man jumped into a nearby fire pit!
The intense flames scorched the one-eyed man's body, but his strong physique reduced the pain significantly.
However, fire and water are merciless, and the one-eyed man had long fur!
As the long fur on the one-eyed man was burned to ashes, it caused secondary damage to his skin, akin to charcoal, as the flames began to lick at the one-eyed man's skin. At the same time, he was also facing attacks from the zombies that were unable to jump out of the pit.
The attacks from the low-level zombies could not penetrate the one-eyed man's skin, while his counterattacks resulted in the continued death of the low-level zombies!
The remaining few and the corpse king stared blankly at the one-eyed man's “suicidal act.” Confusion flashed in the corpse king's eyes, while despair filled the eyes of the others.
That big dog had been frightened into a breakdown by the corpse king, and the corpse king would absolutely not jump into the fire pit to fight a big dog. This meant that the few remaining individuals would become the corpse king's primary attack targets.
