Several figures were hiding on the rooftop of the village council building in Jinyintan Village.
They were employees of the Lingzhou City Martial Arts Department (MAD), stationed here to monitor the situation.
One of them was Su Ze.
Right now, he was holding a pair of night vision binoculars and staring into the distance.
"Chief Duan, Jiang He went out from his house!"
"He stopped at the eastern end of the village and seems to be burying something. I can't see clearly because it's too far away and the cornfield is in the way!"
Su Ze reported one piece of information after another.
Suddenly, there was a rumble in the distance. Su Ze quickly looked, but he could not see clearly because of the distance, and so quickly yelled, "Bro Fa, come look!"
A youth was playing with his phone in a corner.
He only heard it after Su Ze yelled again.
The youth rose to his feet and stood at the edge of the rooftop. There was a flash in his eyes as he charged his superpower and looked out into the night, and his face dropped. "There are so many people … no, zombies!"
"It's as Chief Duan had guessed. The Sky Demon Cult must have sent out a superhuman who could control corpses, and turned all the corpses and Ferals that disappeared into zombies!"
The youth's voice was loud.
He was Pudgy Jiang's subordinate, but Duan Tianhe had borrowed him by force.
His superpower was' all-seeing eyes'. * * *
The Martial Arts Department (MAD).
Duan Tianhe promptly notified Cheng Dongfeng when he received the call.
Fully armed, Cheng Dongfeng hurried to Duan Tianhe's office.
He was wearing an alloy combat suit and wielding an S-grade alloy combat blade with a somber look on his face.
"Old Cheng, I have to stand guard at Lingzhou City. This time …"
"Alright, alright. Stop blabbering." Cheng Dongfeng impatiently cut Duan Tianhe short, barking, "I know how important Lingzhou City is. Just tell me, what should I do?"
Duan Tianhe did not say anything else and quickly said, "I've already ordered a reinforced company to stand by outside the city. Head out at once and lead them to Jinyintan Village as reinforcements. We can't let Jiang He fight alone!"
"Alright!"
Cheng Dongfeng strode away.
At the same time, Duan Tianhe made a phone call and relayed his orders, "Send word to everyone to be on alert, just in case the Sky Demon Cult attacks Lingzhou City!"
Duan Tianhe knew very well.
There were definitely many Sky Demon Cult members who had infiltrated Xibei this time, and their elites might have gone to deal with Jiang He. Still, they must not be careless.
After hanging up, Duan Tianhe thought for a moment and dialed another number.
"I'm Duan Tianhe!"
"Sky Demon Cult elites spotted near Lingzhou City. Requesting backup!"
… …
Yuzhen.
Yuzhen was part of the Tong County under the jurisdiction of Lingzhou City. It was a small mountainous town, but it was now a military base with fortifications built around it.
In addition to the stationed troops, there were also military experts overseeing Yuzhen.
Very soon.
A figure shot out from Yuzhen, heading towards Lingzhou City.
It was a rank-nine grandmaster dressed in military uniform and carrying an S-grade alloy longsword over his back. His body was exuding a blazing aura, and he was moving so quickly that he would reach Lingzhou City in an hour even if Yuzhen was over three hundred kilometers away.
However, after the rank-nine grandmaster had run over fifty kilometers, a long, earthshaking howl echoed from the direction of Mount Dadong. He turned to look, and could vaguely see the silhouette of a giant Graywolf in the air even from fifty kilometers away.
A furious bellow echoed from Yuzhen as well, followed by a flash of thunder in the night sky.
"The Graywolf King!"
The rank-nine grandmaster stopped in his tracks, his eyes twitching slightly.
There was no need to fear the Graywolf King since there were elites beyond rank-nine guarding Yuzhen. Still, the Graywolf King's sudden attack left him with a bad feeling.
He looked to both sides of the road.
On both sides of the rugged road were rolling yellow hills. A figure stood on top of a mountain, gently stroking his blade and smiling. "The world only knows that Commander Wang of Xibei is a rare divine-tier elite, but I didn't expect Chen Jingzhou, commander of the Third Division of Xibei Field Army, to be such an impressive elite as well."
Shing!
Suddenly, a surging blade will burst forth as the figure dived down from the mountain, blade in hand, and charged towards the middle-aged man in military uniform.
Without a word, the middle-aged man drew his sword to meet his foe.
His True Qi surged, causing the alloy longsword to burn with a faint scarlet flame. However, compared to the saber-wielding man who attacked him, his sword technique seemed to be quite a bit inferior. It was simple and unadorned, and not as domineering.
After a dozen exchanges, the blade-wielding man suddenly yelped and retreated.
A sword mark appeared on his arm, and blood seeped out.
"Sword will?" The blade-wielding man exclaimed in surprise. "You've grasped sword will? You've hidden it well, Chen Jingzhou. "
Chen Jingzhou frowned and said in a northwest dialect, "You son of a b * tch, if you want to fight, then fight. If you don't want to fight, then get lost. Why do you have so much nonsense to say?"
The blade-wielding man bellowed, and figures promptly appeared on several other mountaintops.
"Two rank-eights and one Awakened …"
Chen Jingzhou muttered, then laughed in a simple and honest manner, "You bunch of dogs seem to think highly of me …"
Turning the alloy longsword in his hand, he no longer held back and unleashed a sharp Sword Qi that streaked towards the blade-wielding man.
"I'll help you, Sixth Elder!"
The two rank-eight grandmasters of the Sky Demon Cult and the Awakened who could match a rank-eight had joined the fray as well.
Their original goal had been to intercept and kill the elites who came to reinforce Lingzhou City.
But now, that plan had changed.
All they had to do was hold Chen Jingzhou back.
They did not need to hold him back for long — they just needed to hold him back for an hour, and Pain Star would naturally be able to breach Lingzhou City … as for the other elites of Xibei?
They were too far away and could not provide aid in time, just as the other elites of Yuzhen were being held back by the Graywolf King and its Ferals. How would they have the time to help?
… …
Meanwhile.
East of Jinyintan Village.
Dragon-Slaying Saber in hand, Jiang He was laughing out loud and saying arrogantly, "You lot probably don't know, but I've already ascended up to rank-six advanced. Isn't killing trash like you a piece of cake?"
Over the horned boar.
Pain Star did a double take, but soon could not help laughing out loud.
Rank-six advanced?
Late-stage Rank-6 and he was so arrogant. How many peanuts did he eat?
In the next instant, her smile faded, and she waved her hand, barking, "Kill!"
The zombies promptly broke into a run and dashed towards Jiang He. Killer Star, who had been standing behind Pain Star all along, strode out as well. His aura and strength were actually a class above his when he was alive even after he was turned into a corpse!
In a flash, he had already overtaken the other zombies and was charging towards Jiang He.
"200,100 …"
Standing in the middle of the potato formation, Jiang He watched as the zombies dashed towards him and stared at Killer Star, quietly calculating the distance between them.
"50 …"
“20！”
"Now!"
Jiang He promptly clutched his head and promptly dropped to the ground.
Almost at the same time, Killer Star's foot landed on a potato on the ground.
Jiang He had buried the potato very shallowly.
Half of the potato was exposed when his foot landed.
The zombie "Killer Venerable" actually stopped. His gray, dead eyes were curiously looking at the potato under his feet …
Eh?
What was that?
"It hasn't exploded yet?"
Jiang He could not help looking out from the corner of his eye even after lying on the ground for an entire second, cursing inwardly, "What the heck … are these potato landmines the same as real landmines? They won't explode if I don't lift my foot? "
Moreover, why are you so intelligent when you're just a dead corpse? And there's even curiosity in your eyes?
That thought merely flashed through his mind.
After all, the dense horde of zombies was already running towards him.
One zombie stepped on a potato and ran into the potato landmine formation. Two zombies … and in no time at all, hundreds of zombies had charged into the landmine formation.
In the next instant …
The potato they stepped on abruptly expanded.
It was as if a volcano was detonating inside the potato!
Boom!
It exploded!
