38: Chapter 38 The Zombie Army Has Arrived

Indeed, no one could hold out; one second they were just discussing, and the next, everything went completely silent as no one spoke.

"Back to business... we should think of a countermeasure on how to deal with the Sixth-order Zombie!" Lu Yuxuan brought up the topic again.

With her strength, dealing with a Sixth-order Zombie was a fifty-fifty chance, but that was in a one-on-one situation.

Now, the Fifth-Order Zombies... also had to be taken into account.

Yang Dali, who didn't quite understand, asked, "Um... even someone as strong as you can't deal with a Sixth-order Zombie?"

"It's only a fifty-fifty chance! But where there's a Sixth-order Zombie, there will definitely be Fifth-Order Zombies too," Lu Yuxuan explained, feeling quite exasperated.

Mu Cheng couldn't think of a better way either. "How about we call everyone and just charge in together?"

"It seems... that's the only way," Gu Na agreed.

"Otherwise? Preparing for a Sixth-order advancement takes time, and a second bloodline awakening is even harder... Do you guys have any other choice besides charging in together?"

After Peppa suddenly chimed in, it immediately fell fast asleep...

However, it was telling the truth; besides attacking together, there really was no other way.

"Fine! We'll go together. You guys handle the Fifth-order ones, leave the Sixth-order to me... if it really doesn't work, we'll negotiate," Lu Yuxuan had to admit.

Don't they only start talking at the Seventh-order? Did I remember correctly? What's going on with this negotiation talk?

Mu Cheng asked with a face full of confusion, "Negotiate? How exactly do you negotiate?"

"To put it simply, it's about offering energy potions. Doesn't Brother Cheng know?" Gu Na replied.

The description of the Sixth-order Zombie was very clear; as long as resources were provided... it could temporarily retreat.

"There's such a thing?" Mu Cheng was a bit skeptical and used his high-tech bracelet to check.

Sure enough, a description of the Sixth-order Zombie appeared...

"Whoa!!! That actually works."

The descriptions of zombies on the high-tech bracelet... weren't all there from the start; they appeared suddenly.

As for the reason, no one knew.

"The problem seems to be... it looks like no Sixth-order Zombie has appeared yet?" the gelatinous tooth said weakly.

Isn't this a whole lot of nonsense? Forget a Sixth-order Zombie, right now there isn't even a single hair in sight.

"True, talking about this is too far ahead... though maybe not that far. There's already movement inside now," Peppa said, suddenly becoming very serious.

"This fellow is at it again. Could there really be movement?" Mu Cheng thought back seriously.

This indeed had to be guarded against; after all, when Peppa was this serious before, something really did happen.

Lu Yuxuan pondered for a moment and said, "Regardless, let's notify the others to come over first! This West City won't be quiet anymore."

Skeleton Island appearing in West City meant this area would be the focus of defense from now on, making it naturally more dangerous.

"Alright! I'll have Mumu go over," Gu Na said, using her high-tech bracelet to send out information.

Actually, she could have just sent a message to notify the others to come, but... out of sincerity, it was better to have someone make the trip in person.

"Remember, in the future, you should learn more from Menglou Pavilion," the gelatinous tooth suddenly said, glaring coldly at the Buck-toothed Man.

The Buck-toothed Man said very calmly, "Don't worry! I definitely won't let down the boss's expectations."

If you use someone, don't doubt them; if you doubt them, don't use them. Moreover, this Buck-toothed Man was a Postdoc, even if he had made mistakes before.

But since he had agreed to recruit a large number of people, and now... it was a time when manpower was needed, he would naturally give him a chance.

It was also giving himself a chance.

"Good grief... it's coming, you guys be careful," Peppa suddenly said very seriously.

"Wait... it looks like it shouldn't be a problem. Their way of attacking isn't all at once."

Mu Cheng was about to say something... but seeing First-order Zombies crawling out of Skeleton Island, he immediately gave the order.

"Everyone, get ready!"

"Don't worry! Everything is already prepared. I just don't know when the Jiang Family's Bai Yi and the City Lord will be able to arrive," Gu Na knew this was going to be a hard battle.

Naturally, she had made all the preparations long ago...

"That's good, then. Kill as many as come!" Mu Cheng also understood what Peppa meant and didn't need to worry too much at the moment.

There are many types of attack methods, and clearly, the one before them was like that of wild animals.

Using First-order Zombies as cannon fodder...

In less than a few minutes, the distinct figures of First-order Zombies could be seen, a dark, dense mass of them.

As for whether the number was really a hundred thousand... it was truly impossible to count.

"Brothers, follow me!" Yang Dali suddenly leaped down from the city wall, wielding his black gold greatsword.

With him leading the way, the gelatinous tooth's brothers also followed one after another, and they were soon locked in combat with the First-order Zombies.

The young ladies of Menglou Pavilion... over four hundred of them, also all joined the battle. The situation was almost entirely one-sided.

This was normal; First-order Zombies were just fodder to be slaughtered at will...

"The Second-order Zombies are moving, but it looks like you guys shouldn't need to step in," Peppa suddenly spoke again.

It was still... snoring away.

"This fellow... oh well, forget it." Mu Cheng now fully believed what Peppa said.

He didn't take this behavior to heart either. "Listen to it. We'll step in when the Fourth-order Zombies arrive."

"Mm-hmm, count me in when the time comes!" the gelatinous tooth also expressed his intention to fight.

Then Lu Yuxuan and Gu Na... didn't say a word at this moment, observing the entire battlefield on one hand.

On the other hand, they were keeping an eye on the situation at Skeleton Island.

After nearly half an hour, all the First-order Zombies were finally dealt with.

By now, Bai Yi, Qin Chen, and Jiang Nanbei... had all arrived here.

"What that girl said earlier had me a bit worried, but it seems I was wrong. There was no need to bring people at all," Qin Chen lamented as he looked at the scene before him.

It wasn't hard to see... his eyes were full of envy.

Wasn't it? Every lady in Menglou Pavilion was so strong; no matter whose subordinates they were, who wouldn't love that?

"They are indeed very strong," Bai Yi also had to admit.

Jiang Nanbei had also come around. "When the time comes, I'll have the Jiang Family organize a few hundred people like this too, to lighten the burden on Menglou Pavilion."

Qin Chen was very shocked that he could say such a thing.

Knowing what he did of Jiang Nanbei, this person was quite selfish and never liked to lose out.

Now that he said something like this... how could he not be shocked?

This was a last resort; this damn Global Survival had suddenly descended... and the current situation was clear.

Only by cooperating could they survive, so making changes was actually... not incomprehensible.

"Don't worry! My side, Bai Yi's, won't be idle either," Bai Yi also indicated he would send people.

Mu Cheng didn't care about any of that. "Alright, let's just keep observing seriously."

"Brother Cheng is right. I've noticed that these First-order Zombies are a bit stronger than the ones we encountered before," Gu Na said, sharing what she saw.

Lu Yuxuan thought for a moment and said, "I think, to be more precise, it's not that they've become stronger, but that they've become smarter."
