In the apocalypse, situations like his were exceedingly rare!
Therefore, Zhou Yiming could indeed be considered very fortunate.
"You're getting the best of both worlds and still complaining. Being safe and sound with your family in the apocalypse is the greatest fortune of all!" Yang Chu Feng said enviously as he drank.
Compared to him, his situation was much worse; he was the only survivor from his family. Some had directly turned into zombies at the start of the apocalypse, while others had died by zombie mouths.
"Living well now is what matters most. Why talk about things that hurt feelings?" Dian Meng picked up a pork knuckle and gnawed on it, his mouth greasy.
"Slow down, no one's competing with you!" Liu Zhu glanced at Dian Meng. This guy always ate like he hadn't had food in days, whether he was hungry or not. If you didn't know better, you'd think the base hadn't eaten in a long time.
"Hmph, I saw you staring at this knuckle for a long time. Don't think I don't know you've been wanting to grab it for ages!" Liu Zhu shook his head and saw no point in arguing with him.
A wedding had certainly added a splash of color to this apocalypse.
...
In the apocalypse, the battle against zombies was always the main theme.
Although the zombies no longer attacked proactively, the survivors now hunted them, and the roles had reversed.
Faced with this situation, the zombies had no other options apart from surprise attacks under the cover of night. The awakened ones were too numerous and too powerful for the zombies to handle.
Time flew by, and it was the end of the year in the blink of an eye.
Finally, all the zombies erupted in excited roars on this day, as if something had happened that made them very happy.
At this moment, a mystical substance emanated from the volcano. All the zombies were greedily inhaling this substance, and many of them were growing larger and stronger!
The zombies had finally evolved!
Roar!
Under the influence of this energy, the Epic Devourer leaped into a Legendary zombie, and the five King-level zombies that had been guarding the volcano also evolved into Epic-level. All other zombies were undergoing changes!
This was the highest-level zombie Wang Luo had seen in his previous life.
The Devourer stood atop the volcano, its gaze coldly fixed on the direction of the base, looking eager to act! But it ultimately held back; now was not the best time to attack.
In the base, Wang Luo and the others stood on the city walls, looking outwards. They had clearly seen the zombies evolve, and everyone was on high alert, preparing for the battle.
"That's strange. They've successfully evolved, so why aren't they attacking yet?" Zhao Qing Xuan frowned. Haven't the zombies been enduring humiliation all this time, waiting for this very moment? Why, after reaching the time, did they only get excited for a moment and then stop?
"Could they be waiting for an opportunity?" Yang Shu murmured.
"What opportunity could they possibly have? With the base's current strength, even if all the zombies evolved into King-level, we wouldn't be afraid!" Zhou Yi Ming said dismissively, crossing his arms. The base now had over three hundred thousand people, with more than two hundred thousand awakened individuals. With everyone being King-level, what could the zombies possibly use to fight the base besides their numbers!
Roar!
At this moment, several deep growls echoed from the depths of the volcano, like the roars of demons. Afterward, a large number of Legendary zombies leaped out of the volcano, appearing around the crater.
As soon as one zombie appeared, it let out a furious roar towards the base, its eyes coldly fixed on the base.
"Why do I feel like it's looking at me?" Dian Meng found it strange.
"It's not looking at you, it's looking at the chained axe hanging from your side!" Wang Luo said with a smile. The giant axe that Wang Luo had snatched from a Legendary Hunter zombie was given to Dian Meng. He had studied it for a long time but couldn't figure out why it possessed the power to break through the air. After much thought, he figured it might only have that ability when wielded by the Hunter. So, he directly gifted the axe to Dian Meng, and indeed, Dian Meng handled it quite skillfully. He swung the heavy axe with great vigor.
"Even if it's looking at me, I'm not giving it back!" Dian Meng tightened his grip on the chained axe. These two axes were too useful, their hardness no less than that of extraordinary weapons! So, for him to return them, the other party would have to beg on their knees, calling him daddy. No, even calling him daddy wouldn't be enough!
Roar!
The Hunter roared, and its legs pushed off the ground fiercely, its body shooting towards the base like an arrow from a bow.
"Here they come!" Dian Meng said excitedly, leaping off the city wall and charging forward with his chained axe.
The Hunter was enraged. The opponent was fighting it with its own weapon? But it seemed to recall that the one who stole its weapon didn't have this aura! But it didn't care; today, all these people would die!
As they engaged, the other zombies also moved. Especially those newly emerged Legendary zombies from the volcano, they led the charge towards the base.
"They're Legendary zombies, everyone be careful!" Wang Luo reminded them. It was still somewhat difficult for all the awakened individuals, who were King-level, to deal with Legendary zombies. After this long period, the awakened had grasped the patterns: Double S-rank could kill boss zombies of the same rank, Quadruple S could kill boss zombies one rank higher, and Sextuple S could kill bosses two ranks higher! This meant that to kill a Legendary boss zombie, one would need to be at least a King-level Sextuple S-rank expert. Sextuple S-rank was divided into two categories: one was a Double SSS-rank extraordinary weapon, and the other was a Double SSS-rank awakened! In other words, whether it was an extraordinary weapon or a combination of abilities and techniques, as long as this condition was met, one could fight across ranks.
"Hahaha, good! If I don't comprehend an SSS-rank esoteric art by fighting them this time, I'll shave off the beard I've kept for years!" Zhou Yi Ming laughed heartily and charged directly into the Legendary zombies. Yang Chu Feng and the others also rushed forward, unwilling to be left behind. Even Zhao Qing Xuan joined the fray. They had been anticipating this opportunity for a long time!
At the same time, battles erupted from all four sides of the base. The power of the Legendary zombies was terrifying, and the intense combat caused the entire base to tremble slightly.
"There are so many Legendary zombie bosses this time?" Wang Luo looked towards the volcano. Legendary zombies continued to pour out of it, and their numbers were quite terrifying.
"Things have changed drastically from my previous life!" Ever since Wang Luo killed a King-level zombie, events had begun to unfold differently. However, he didn't hesitate and joined the battle. If things were allowed to continue developing like this, dealing with too many Legendary zombies would become difficult.
Whoosh! As soon as he reached the battlefield, a Legendary Titan zombie attacked Wang Luo, unleashing a torrent of poison.
"Thunder Dragon's Embrace!" Wang Luo immediately cast an SSS-rank esoteric art.
Roar! A low dragon's roar sounded, and a purple thunder dragon appeared beside Wang Luo.
