Chapter 77: Black soul swallow

Captain Ye’s eyes were red.

The Purple Cloud Ants had caused several losses to the team and when the zombies and two Red Condors came here, all he could do was to passively defend.

Right, he couldn’t even flee.

No matter where they looked, they only saw zombies, mutated beings, and monsters. In just a short while, he lost half of his men. Many of the remaining were injured.

Without the immunity potions, injuries pretty much-meant death.

Captain Ye didn’t know which direction to head towards as they all seem to head to hell.

This was despair that made one crazy.

Some people started to break down. Captain Ye saw many people crying, pulling the trigger towards their own heads. Fresh blood and brain scattered across the green uniforms.

Some soldiers broke away from the team and charged into the zombies. They thought they were fleeing but they were actually just running to their deaths.

The zombies that Captain Ye felt weren’t a threat now showed their viciousness. When they reached a number, not only humans but monsters weren’t able to stop them. They were all made to fill up their stomachs.

Two of the four teams that they placed in four directions had lost contact. Chief Liu informed Captain Ye that he was going to retreat. They couldn’t stop that giant mutated zombie. Only two units were moving over but could they break through the hoard of zombies?

Captain Ye himself didn’t believe that.

“Send my orders.” Captain Ye’s face was sunken and he clenched his fists. He removed his earpiece, “Charge from the left.”

The advisor was stunned, “Captain, that…”

“I know! But it is our only way out.”

The entire team started to move towards the direction of the Chain Prisoner. At this time, everyone wanted to live. Listening to orders was an instinctive thing. Captain Ye saw something that he didn’t understand. He knew that even if they managed to survive this, many people wouldn’t listen to his orders anymore.

But it didn’t matter as that was expected. Everything was worth it. If Wang Ding succeeded then he would meet up with him no matter the sacrifice!

Captain Ye lowered his head and his eyes were dark.

………………………………………………………………………………

Ye Zhongming faced some problems on a three-way street. This place turned into the main battlefield. Zombies, mutated life and monsters could be seen by everyone. He had to kill them while moving forwards.

Wang Ding also faced the same problems. Without the immunity potion, he had to be more careful than Ye Zhongming. But with his two star evolved strength, there wasn’t much that could hurt him.

But that young man’s swiftness made him angrier and angrier.

Hong!

The tree trunk in the hands of the Chain Prisoner stretched out from a building. At the top was the body of a level two mutated being. One couldn’t tell what it was as it was smashed and left with bone and meat. Only a white crystal told people what level it was when it was alive.

Seeing the giant body of the Chain Prisoner, Ye Zhongming took out his gun and fired.

In truth, until now, no being tried to offend it. This fellow’s level four meant that it suppressed everyone else so many mutated lifeforms tried their best to stay far away.

But this place was a battlefield for humans, for zombies, it was their food. They were filling their stomachs to obtain energy to evolve.

Their fear of the Chain Prisoner didn’t mean that they could give up on that chance.

So although they tried to stay away but they didn’t leave the battlefield. They were searching for life forms that they could kill.

This formed a weird scene where all sorts of things were here. Only the small area around the Chain Prisoner was empty.

It walked really slowly so the effect on the battlefield wasn’t as large as its body.

But everything changed after Ye Zhongming’s shot.

Apart from Wang Ding, no one dared to challenge this fellow. Those who had the thought were turned into meat paste.

The Chain Prisoner had entered a wandering state so maybe this was how it unlocked itself.

But Ye Zhongming’s shot was from his new gun and the bullet was strengthened and enchanted to break apart strong defences.

If it was a level nine monster then it wouldn’t have an effect. It would probably feel like a mosquito bite.

But the Chain Prisoner was just level four and it was not so strong. Facing other level two and three monsters, it could easily kill them as they just levelled up and lacked many other areas.

But Ye Zhongming was different. Although he was one star evolved but he had a job and it was the top job with a prefix. He could raise his strength to a level far above his evolution level to deal damage to higher level lifeforms.

So that gun broke the skin of its chest.

It just broke the skin. It wasn’t even a slight injury, it just broke its defence slightly.

But that was enough to enrage it. It roared and turned around to find Ye Zhongming. It used strength slightly which caused the building between them to collapse.

At this time, Captain Ye and his team were nearby. The Chain Prisoner’s rage helped him/ The zombies and mutated life forms didn’t chase them anymore and even the two Red Condors retreated and were unwilling to face the Chain Prisoner.

Wang Ding’s eyes flashed as he charged into the mist. A moment later, Ye Zhongming and Wang Ding both backed out of the smoke and Ye Zhongming’s mouth had some blood.

Even with the smoke as cover, Ye Zhongming saw how strong a two star evolved was. They clashed and he took a slight loss.s

But the one that was more shocked was Wang Ding. He could tell that this young man was just a one star evolved but he caused him a problem. If he didn’t dodge, he would have been injured by that silver blade.

He looked at his shirt that was sliced apart and he just tore it off to reveal his strong body. There was a black skeleton on his left chest.

Ye Zhongming saw the tattoo and recalled a nickname.

“Black Soul Swallow!”
