Zombie King Babysits the Reborn Empress Chapter 389 - 401: Base City’s Life-and-Death Gamble, Succes

The scene ahead made the third Invisibility Evolver shudder inwardly, causing his advancing figure to halt forcefully.

Just seconds ago, a living teammate was gone just like that. The power of Thunderous Roar was truly terrifying.

A casual strike from the opponent was sothing these Evolvers simply could not withstand.

Especially for an Invisibility Evolver like him, with low combat power, there was no capacity for resistance.

At that mont, the thunder on Thunderous Roar quickly receded, the lightning dissipating, returning to its previous state.

Looking at Thunderous Roar ahead, the third Invisibility Evolver was filled with fear, hesitating about whether to continue approaching.

After all, life only cos once. No one knew when this Thunderous Roar might go berserk again. If he got closer, he might end up like the teammate just now.

Ultimately, the third Invisibility Evolver chose to retreat.

Compared to completing the mission, he felt his own life was more important.

With light steps, the third Invisibility Evolver made sure not to make a sound as he quickly retreated.

The Thunderous Roar, in its abnormal state, obviously didn’t notice the third Invisibility Evolver, still using its giant paws to smash the ground with great force, creating massive commotion, the ground constantly shaking.

Not long after, the third Invisibility Evolver safely withdrew from the pine forest, reaching a cave several kiloters away from Thunderous Roar.

At this mont, inside the cave, the other squad mbers were all looking anxious.

You’re back?

Seeing the third Invisibility Evolver enter, the five Evolvers quickly stood up, walking over with delight.

Leading them was a burly middle-aged man, broad shoulders, and a resolute face.

He was the captain of this Evolutionary Squad—Yuan Yi.

"Fang Yulin, what happened? Why couldn’t I contact you?"

Yuan Yi walked over, asking anxiously.

Before, he had contacted two team mbers, issued orders, but when he was about to inquire about the results again, no one responded at all.

Then, he tried several tis, still with no luck, which made him and the entire squad worry, fearing the two might have encountered misfortune.

After all, the terror of Thunderous Roar was well-known, for ordinary Invisibility Evolvers like Fang Yulin, any mistake discovered ant certain death.

"Captain, the situation was urgent just now, I didn’t pay attention, the communicator might have fallen off."

With a heavy heart, Fang Yulin finally realized after the captain’s reminder, touched his empty left ear, and responded.

The situation at that ti indeed gave him a scare, during the escape, how could he worry about the communicator, he hadn’t noticed when it fell.

"Urgent situation? How co only you ca back, where’s Lin Hai?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yi’s face changed, as if he had discovered sothing, looked behind Fang Yulin, his expression sowhat grim.

Detecting sothing wrong in Fang Yulin’s words, Yuan Yi’s heart suddenly had a bad premonition.

Standing behind Yuan Yi, several squad mbers also looked somber, their gaze fixed on Fang Yulin, with furrowed brows.

"Captain, Lin Hai was sacrificed!"

After a mont of silence, Fang Yulin’s face turned pale, fear flashed in his eyes as he looked at Yuan Yi and the others, speaking solemnly.

What!

Yuan Yi and the others were shocked, soon followed by a sense of grief and anger flooding their hearts.

Although they had so guesses in their hearts, hearing the truth still made it difficult to accept.

"Fang Yulin, what exactly happened?"

"It was just a reconnaissance mission, being careful would be enough, how could Lin Hai die?"

"Damn it..."

Everyone said incredulously.

"Fang Yulin, what exactly happened? Speak quickly!"

Yuan Yi’s face was extrely gloomy as he stared at Fang Yulin, questioning coldly.

"Captain, it was that Thunderous Roar, that beast is too terrifying, constantly unleashing indiscriminate thunder bombardnt, it’s impossible to get close!

Lin Hai got hit by thunder when approaching and was sacrificed.

Thus, we haven’t been able to investigate the unusual circumstances of Thunderous Roar."

Feeling the gaze of the people, Fang Yulin hurriedly explained.

This matter truly couldn’t be blad on him, once the thunder hit, it was certain death.

Through Fang Yulin’s account, everyone present roughly understood the situation, all furrowing their brows.

This Thunderous Roar was indeed strange, constantly emitting thunder, thus, it wasn’t too surprising that Fang Yulin and the others couldn’t complete the mission.

However, the sacrifice of a teammate left them all in poor spirits.

"No, Lin Hai died at the hands of that beast, Thunderous Roar, we must avenge him."

A female Evolver, eyes red with anger, shouted.

"Qian Yao, calm down, we are as saddened by Lin Hai’s death as you, wishing to kill that beast imdiately.

However, our strength compared to that beast is vastly different, we can’t act rashly!"

Another Evolver beside her, with a worried face, advised.

"Alas, as part of the Suicide Squad, Lin Hai has long had the awareness of sacrifice!"

"This Thunderous Roar is indeed not sothing our squad can handle, let’s wait for others from the Base Cities to gather before taking action!"

Finally, Yuan Yi’s expression sowhat softened, he sighed and shook his head helplessly.

They voluntarily ca, naturally prepared for sacrifice, but now, it wasn’t the ti to alert the enemy.

After all, this might be the last chance, a life-and-death struggle, if the operation failed, the Corpse King would beco unstoppable, and the whole Jiang Province would fall to the zombies.

Success or failure hinges on this, so caution is paramount, humanity must gather as much strength before taking on the Corpse King.

Yuan Yi’s words successfully subdued the crowd’s agitated emotions.

"Qian Yao, how much longer for the Thunder Gathering Ring to complete activation?"

Yuan Yi turned around, looking at Qian Yao, asking seriously.

The Thunder Gathering Ring was a technological creation specifically developed for this operation by Jianghai Base City.

Constructed using Fierce Beast bones, mutant plants, and Crystal Core, it can gather and store a large amount of thunder power in a short ti.

When luring Thunderous Roar, once the Thunder Gathering Ring is opened, it will certainly be attracted as it craves thunder.

"Captain, it will take about three hours for the Thunder Gathering Ring to be fully activated!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Yao looked at the ti and responded.

"Three hours? Alright, make sure to safeguard the Thunder Gathering Ring, it is the key to completing this mission, nothing can go wrong, understand?"

After listening, Yuan Yi nodded, advising sternly.

"Understood!"
