Chapter 20: Human Race Conference

But when it came to the best material for refining corpses, the first thing that popped into Chen Yusheng's mind was that Zombie King that could fly through the sky.

Chen Yusheng never expected that the Zombie King actually looked like a little loli wearing a pink dress. This book is first published on TianTianKanXiaoShuo -> 𝘵𝘵𝘬. 𝘵𝘸, providing you with a reading experience of error-free and out-of-order chapters.

If he could refine this Zombie King into his own corpse slave, then the entire zombie tide could be brought under his control.

Thinking of the massive Zombie Group that stretched as far as the eye could see, Chen Yusheng felt a pang of regret.

If only he could use a Soul-Suppressing Talisman to pin down the Zombie King and then completely refine it, he would never have to fear the He Family's retaliation again.

If the He Family still dared to provoke him, he could just unleash the zombie tide and wipe out the entire He Family without any problem.

In the dark underground parking garage, Chen Yusheng once again bit his finger and took turns drawing Soul-Suppressing Talismans on the heads of the seven Mutant Zombies, using several talismans on each one to suppress them.

With these Soul-Suppressing Talismans pressing down on them, these Mutant Zombies wouldn't be able to move for at least several hours.

After finishing this step, Chen Yusheng began carving corpse-refining runes on the zombies.

Half an hour later, Chen Yusheng successfully refined a giant zombie.

"Rise!"

Chen Yusheng cast a hand seal at the giant zombie, activating the runes on its body. The giant zombie quickly stood up and stood respectfully behind Chen Yusheng.

……

While Chen Yusheng was hiding in the underground parking garage, focused on refining zombies.

Meanwhile, in a luxurious conference room of a Base, over a dozen people who clearly held high positions were sitting around holding a meeting.

Among these dozen or so people, there were men and women, the elderly and the young.

Only at this moment, everyone's expression was exceptionally solemn and grave.

"Has it been confirmed that a Zombie King has appeared in Funancheng?" an old man's voice rang out in the conference room.

"The message Fire Wolf sent back before he died, you've all seen it too. Whether it's true or not, you'll need to judge for yourselves." a middle-aged man said calmly.

Hearing this, a young man immediately said, "This matter must be investigated as soon as possible. The Zombie King poses too great a threat to our Base."

"We definitely need to get to the bottom of this. We absolutely cannot let the tragedy of Indijiayena Jidi repeat itself here." a middle-aged man beside him said in a deep voice.

The moment they heard the words "Indijiayena Jidi," everyone's expression in the room turned ugly.

A month ago, a Zombie King controlled a Zombie Group of a million and easily wiped out a large Base with over a hundred thousand survivors.

Over a hundred thousand survivors—don't think this number is large. Before the apocalypse, it might not even match the population of a single county town.

But after the apocalypse descended, over ninety percent of people turned into zombies, and the remaining unmutated people still had to face large-scale zombie hunts.

After several years of constant deaths, the survivors who managed to live until now were already less than one in a hundred.

Currently, the entire world combined only has a few hundred Bases.

The population of these Bases ranges from several thousand to several hundred thousand.

Bases with several thousand to ten or twenty thousand people can only be considered small Bases; those with twenty thousand to fifty or sixty thousand are called medium Bases; only those exceeding a hundred thousand can be called large Bases.

If the population exceeds two hundred thousand, then it can be called a super Base.

And the Fubei Base they were currently in was nothing more than a medium Base with a population of sixty or seventy thousand.

Even a large Base like Jiayena Jidi couldn't withstand the Zombie King's attack. If a Zombie King really did appear near their Base, they might not be able to hold out either.

"We must first confirm the situation with the Zombie King. If there really is one, we have to find a way to eliminate it." a middle-aged man said to everyone.

"The question is how to eliminate it? With our Base's current strength, there's no way we can take out a Zombie King."

"Then we should request reinforcements from above. I remember when Spiritual Qi first started recovering, didn't Lantian Jidi manage to preserve two nuclear warheads? If nothing else works, we can apply to use nuclear strikes." a young man said.

Hearing this, a young man shook his head: "You're dreaming. Our entire country only managed to preserve two nuclear warheads. Lantian Jidi would never agree to let us use them."

"Sigh! If only we'd known that Spiritual Qi would change the properties of matter and render all high-tech equipment useless, we should have concentrated all our Ability Users from the start to protect the nuclear warheads. Then dealing with zombies would have been so much easier."

"Stop talking about useless 'what-ifs.' There are no 'what-ifs.' In the past, scientists worked themselves to the bone researching dark energy but couldn't find a single trace. Then the moment dark energy appeared, it directly caused an extinction-level disaster."

"Yeah, we still don't know how dark energy suddenly popped up. Some people even call the appearance of dark energy the recovery of Spiritual Qi."

"Enough, stop going off topic. Let's talk about how to confirm whether there's a Zombie King. If there really is one, we have to find a way to deal with it no matter what."

"As far as I know, the Zombie King itself isn't that strong. What makes it seem so powerful is that it can control large numbers of zombies to form a zombie tide.

If we can find the Zombie King's location, we might be able to bomb it with missiles.

It's just that the Zombie King is highly intelligent and will hide whenever it senses danger, which is exactly why eliminating it is so difficult."

"No matter how high the Zombie King's intelligence is, it can't outsmart us humans. As long as we confirm the Zombie King really exists, we'll definitely find a way to deal with it."

"The key now is how to confirm the Zombie King's existence. Are we supposed to send people into the city to look for it?"

"No need. I think we can just use drones to check. If the drones capture zombies gathering on a large scale, we can basically confirm there's a Zombie King." someone suggested.

"Let's send drones to check first. If that doesn't work, we'll think of other ways." the last elder made the final call to everyone.

"By the way, tomorrow is the Awakening Ceremony. Should we wait until after the ceremony to check on the Zombie King's situation?" a young man asked.

Hearing this, the elder shook his head: "No need. The Awakeners can follow last year's format. The Zombie King matter is more important."

……

Inside Funancheng, on the rooftop of a building several dozen stories high.

A little girl in a pink dress, with red pupils and a single horn on her head, stood at the edge of the rooftop, gazing quietly in one direction, as if pondering something.

This little girl in the pink dress was none other than the Zombie King that had been scared off by Chen Yusheng earlier.

It was no wonder she had been frightened by Chen Yusheng. With a wave of his hand, Chen Yusheng could knock down a large swath of ordinary zombies, and even Mutant Zombies only took him two hits to deal with.

For her, who possessed intelligence, such a scene was simply too terrifying.

In her view, Mutant Zombies were far stronger than she was herself. Her only advantage was being able to control other zombies.

She kept thinking that if she were hit by that human's bizarre attack, her fate would probably be no different from the other zombies.

So when she saw Chen Yusheng instantly knock down a large swath of zombies, she was truly terrified.
