129: Mutant Zombies
The shattered Stone Giants on the ground were reassembling their separated limbs.
It twisted its head and rubbed its fists.
All the rocks nearby on the ground were absorbed into its body, making its form even more massive.
In the blink of an eye, its size had surpassed that of the Tyrannosaurus Rex by several times.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex was in the middle of a fierce battle with another Stone Giant and completely failed to notice the situation behind it.
With a loud "crack,"
the giant brought its massive foot down.
It stepped on the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex tried to push the foot off, but the force of the foot above was ten times greater than its own.
Just like that, the foot pressed down bit by bit, crushing the Tyrannosaurus Rex beneath it.
The giant twisted its foot, as if extinguishing a cigarette.
When it lifted its foot, the Tyrannosaurus Rex underneath had already become a meat patty.
Just as the two Stone Giants were locked in a fierce battle with the Tyrannosaurus Rex, an accident occurred.
Zombie Emperor Bei suddenly drove a group of mutant zombies to charge towards the Stone Giants.
These mutant zombies were massive, extremely fast, and possessed special abilities.
Some could spray corrosive liquid, while others could release powerful electric currents.
These zombies quickly overwhelmed the local zombies.
Even the sisters of the Vermilion Bird Hall dared not engage them in close combat.
But the Stone Giants were not afraid of electric currents or corrosive liquid; the remaining Stone Giants took the lead and charged into the fray.
The special forces among this group of zombies unleashed their electricity and venom, but it had absolutely no effect on the Stone Giants.
Instead, they were crushed one by one by the Stone Giants, as if stepping on cockroaches.
Zombie Emperor Bei was shocked and immediately let out a howl.
A tidal wave of zombies surged over again.
Zhu Yunque immediately raised the pitch of her flute, driving the remaining zombies in the vicinity to charge towards the mutant zombies.
Zhu Yunque took the lead, wielding a long blade, moving freely through the zombie horde.
Every strike she made was able to slay a mutant zombie.
Under her leadership, the sisters of the Vermilion Bird Hall were greatly encouraged and engaged the zombie horde in battle.
The Stone Giants' strength was immense, and every attack dealt massive damage to the mutant zombies.
Under the attacks of the Stone Giants, the number of mutant zombies gradually dwindled, and their attacks slowly became feeble.
The remaining Stone Giants charged toward the zombie tide.
They were like machines harvesting crops, crashing through the zombie horde.
Every swing of a Stone Giant's arm sent a large swathe of zombies flying.
Under the Stone Giants' attacks, the zombies had no power to fight back and fell to the ground one after another.
On the battlefield, zombie corpses piled up like mountains, and blood flowed into small streams.
Just as the two sides were locked in an inextricable battle, a series of loud noises suddenly came from the rear.
Then they saw flames appearing over there, as if large bombs had exploded.
Sure enough, when Zombie Emperor Bei saw this scene, it was greatly alarmed.
It knew that it had already lost this battle.
Daring not to stay any longer, it quickly turned and fled with the pack of wolves around it.
During its escape, Bei would occasionally look back, its eyes filled with unwillingness and resentment.
Leaving only Zhu Yunque and the beautiful Jing Hua to look at each other in confusion.
Originally, the zombie tide had the upper hand.
Relying on the zombie army and Stone Giants left behind by Big Brother Yang Chunlai, they could barely hold on.
Why did this group of zombies retreat without a fight?
Everyone was completely puzzled.
Movements of the Major Bases
Just when the major bases were fighting the zombie tide at the most critical moment.
Suddenly, a muffled explosion came from the direction of the Air Raid Shelter.
This explosion was like a thunderclap, instantly breaking the stalemate on the battlefield.
The zombies' originally frantic offensive rhythm came to an abrupt halt.
Immediately after, something unexpected happened: the zombie tide suddenly retreated in its entirety, moving quickly and chaotically.
Leaving behind only a ground full of wounded and disabled zombies, struggling and roaring in place.
Feng Rugui of the Black Tortoise Hall stood on the city wall, his face, previously tense from the battle, full of confusion.
He gripped his long spear tightly, his eyes fixed on the direction the zombies were retreating, his brows knitted into a " river" shape.
"What is going on? Why did the zombies suddenly retreat?"
He muttered to himself, his voice tinged with vigilance.
As the Hall Master of the Black Tortoise Hall, he knew the habits of zombies well; this kind of retreat without any warning was too unusual.
He turned to look at his subordinates and loudly ordered: "Don't lower your guard yet; send someone to investigate the situation and see if there is any conspiracy."
Li Dahai of the White Tiger Hall was full of excitement. He slammed his large blade onto the ground and laughed heartily: "Haha, it looks like these zombies were scared off by us!"
"Let's push a little harder; we might be able to drive them completely out of our territory!"
His face was filled with the joy of victory, completely unaware of the dangers that might be hidden within.
In his view, the zombies' retreat was the signal of their victory.
He waved his hand and shouted to his subordinates: "Brothers, charge! Eliminate all these remaining zombies for me!"
Zhu Yeqing of the Azure Dragon Base had a very calm expression. He narrowed his eyes slightly, watching the retreating backs of the zombies, contemplating in his heart.
As the person in charge of the Azure Dragon Base, he was always meticulous.
He knew that Zombie Emperor Bei would never give up the attack so easily.
"Notify everyone, do not pursue for now, and strengthen the base's defenses."
His voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable authority.
His subordinates acted quickly, vigilantly watching the surroundings to prevent the zombies from launching a sudden counterattack.
Strong Ox of the Xiao He Base scratched his head, looking naive and honest.
He looked at the scene before him, feeling somewhat at a loss.
"This... what exactly is going on?"
He muttered, his eyes filled with confusion.
Although Strong Ox was burly and very strong, in such a complex situation, he really couldn't make heads or tails of it.
He turned to look at his companions, hoping to get some answers from them.
Old Gourd of the Wang Family Villa sat in his wheelchair, his eyes filled with a trace of worry.
He sighed softly and said: "This is not a good sign. The zombies retreating for no reason must have a reason behind it."
Old Gourd had experienced too much in this apocalyptic world, and he knew that things would not be so simple.
He instructed the people around him: "Keep a close watch on the zombies' movements, and at the same time, strengthen the Villa's guard; absolutely do not let your guard down."
The major bases had different reactions to the sudden retreat of the zombies.
But in any case, they all realized that this apocalyptic war was far from over.
In this world full of unknowns and dangers, every decision concerned the survival of the bases.
And that sudden explosion, as well as the strange retreat of the zombies, undoubtedly added more suspense to this war.
Everyone was waiting, waiting for the truth to be revealed, and waiting for the next battle to come.
