This time, the lightning attack clearly had a target . Without a doubt, it was under control .

As Wu Chengyue had taken a few lightning strikes, the pointless attack stopped . Although, the thunder could still be heard from the dark clouds in the sky .
The distance was long, but Lin Qiao could still sense that Mo Yan had restrained his vibe . It seemed that his mind was still clear, and that he was still able to control himself .
She slightly dropped her eyes and stood beside the others, as if she was nothing but pretty .
The zombies surrounding the base were under level-two . Not even one level-three could be found . Lin Qiao assumed that Mo Yan had hunted all higher-leveled zombies that he and his subordinates summoned, because she had sensed that all his subordinates were on the verge of breakthrough .
She wondered how much Mo Yan had improved himself, and if absorbing too many zombie nuclei had caused him to lose control .
As Lin Qiao was making guesses about Mo Yan’s condition, a strong wave of lightning bolts suddenly fell from the dark clouds .
Hundreds of lightning bolts covered an area hundreds of meters in radius, including where the group of base leaders stood . Seeing that, the people immediately moved to dodge .
Wu Chengyue was able to absorb a couple of lightning bolts, but not hundreds of them at one time .
Hu Zhiyong, who was in a poor condition, reacted more slowly than the others . But still, he leaped away quickly enough . However, he was still in the air when a lightning bolt came from nowhere and hit him .

The lightning bolts landed on his body, as it was impossible for him to dodge in the air .
“Ah…” He screamed in pain and fell to the ground .
The others heard him once they landed on the wall top . They immediately turned and saw Hu Zhiyong lying on the ground outside, shaking . His entire body had been burned black, and was smoking .
Wu Chengyue landed on the other side of the wall, his eyes glowing dimly .
Lin Qiao too had landed back onto the wall top . She looked at Hu Zhiyong, then at Wu Chengyue, her mouth corners twitching slightly . After that, she slightly twitched a finger and released a tiny wisp of black fire .
Lying on the ground, Hu Zhiyong had his disordered energy leaking from his entire body . He had suffered a bad dizziness, and couldn’t even struggle back up from the ground . Thankfully, Si Kongchen had cleared that area just now with his fire dragons . So, there were no zombie bodies on the ground, only black ashes .
His frozen arm had fallen into pieces . The wound wasn’t bleeding, but was frozen into a bluish pale color .
Before he woke up, the tiny black fire flake landed on him, then exploded into a raging black fire .
He didn’t scream again, because the fire had devoured his throat . Within a blink, his head started vanishing too .

Within a short time, Hu Zhiyong, a level-seven man, was gone . Only a glowing energy nucleus was left on the ground .
“Hu Zhiyong!” After landing in a safe area, Liu Zhinan didn’t immediately notice that Hu Zhiyong had been brought down by the lightning . By the time he followed Hu Zhiyong’s vibe and saw him on the ground, the fire rose from his body and swallowed him .
Liu Zhinan popped his eyes with disbelief . The others were all too shocked to react as well .
Si Kongchen made reactions before the others . He glanced at Wu Chengyue and found the latter wearing a surprised face as well .
“Did Chairman Hu just die like that?” Gao Haoyun landed beside Si Kongchen with surprise as he looked at the glistening energy nucleus on the ground and said .
Right at that moment, a figure flashed off the wall over to the energy nucleus and brought it away . Hou Guozhong flew back to Si Kongchen and handed him the energy nucleus .
He possessed level-seven wind power, so he was surely faster than the others .
With a grim look, Si Kongchen held the energy nucleus, then looked at Hou Guozhong, who just nodded .
After that, Si Kongchen gave Wu Chengyue a meaningful glance .

The others had no idea why a bolt of lightning hit Hu Zhiyong . They thought that was because he didn’t react fast enough to dodge the lightning attack due to his bad condition .
Only Si Kongchen had grasped a faint energy wave from Wu Chengyue when that happened . However, he couldn’t sense the source of the black fire .
Si Kongchen pulled a long face, but didn’t do anything .
Liu Zhinan and Hu Zhiyong had been going against him the whole time . They believed that they didn’t need to be afraid of the Chief anymore, and had reached level-seven . Si Kongchen would not tolerate them if they weren’t strong and useful for the base .
Now, when their powers were really needed, one of them died so soon .
The two of them were in charge of some science projects . However, they weren’t the best scientists in the base .
Following a series of thunder, a new wave of lightning bolts fell .
“I have sensed it! He’s in the Southwest!” At that time, Wu Chengyue burst in a shout and pointed at the Southwest . Hearing that, Si Kongchen and Gao Haoyun immediately darted at that direction .
Among all, Gao Haoyun and Si Kongchen wanted to kill the zombie emperor the most .
Gao Haoyun didn’t care about the people in Heilong Base, but did care about the supplies in that base . The massive zombie attack that the zombie emperor caused had destroyed the base . How could he not hate the zombie for that?
He wanted very much to kill the zombie emperor, but he was aware that he wasn’t able to kill it alone . In terms of superpower, his power wasn’t as effective as the zombie emperor’s lightning power; in terms of energy amount, he might be no worse than the zombie emperor, but he didn’t have the strong body that the zombie emperor had .
He cared about the supplies in the base, but valued his own life more . Therefore, as the situation turned bad, he immediately gave up on the base and left .
Now, he had joined Huaxia Base . As a level-eight superpowered man, he was on an equal footing with Si Kongchen . Therefore, he wanted Si Kongchen to help him kill the zombie emperor .
However, Huaxia Base people hadn’t even located the zombie emperor, not to mention kill him .
Therefore, once Wu Chengyue pointed out the possible location, Gao Haoyun and Si Kongchen moved together .
While the people fought against the zombie emperor outside, the zombies in Lin Qiao’s space were already bored enough, such that they had even started playing cards .
Yes, they were playing cards! They had no memories, but were smart enough to play cards . Lu Tianyi introduced the rule once, then they started the game quickly .
Lu Tianyi was bored, so he made Pesticide and Jingyan play cards with him . Xiao-xiao and the other zombies were watching them .
