Zombie King: Picking up a baby at the beginning is the reincarnation of the empress

Chapter 296 Flying Zombies!

The long convoy slowly drove through the streets of Shanchuan City, while Lu Chuan and his two companions observed the outside world through the car windows.

Within the city of Shanchuan, there were traces of destruction caused by ferocious beasts everywhere. The billboards above rows of shops were torn to shreds by the claws of some unknown kind of flying beast.

On the windows of the cars parked along the street, there were extremely clear claw marks, penetrating deep into the glass through the thin film on the windows...

Meanwhile, on the ground, there were piles of dark red unidentified objects everywhere; these were the corpses left behind after the zombies were killed.

The corpses were now crawling with pale maggots, wriggling incessantly, a truly disgusting sight. Some of the not-yet-fully-decomposed corpses had obvious lacerations, as if they had been torn apart by claws.

In these zombie graveyards, one can occasionally see the skeletons of other ferocious beasts, which are in almost the same condition as the zombies, emitting a strong stench.

At that moment, the entire convoy seemed to have entered a world filled with a foul stench.

The nauseating stench stubbornly seeped in through the gaps in the vehicle, causing Ji Ruxue and Zhao Lin in the back seat to frown almost simultaneously.

It stank so badly that Zhao Lin couldn't help but recall the farmhouse toilet she used when she went on a mission to the countryside before the apocalypse—the smell was unbearable...

Just then, a series of roars rang out from the fork in the road ahead.

"Wow~"

With a series of footsteps, a group of mutated giant dogs rushed out from the side road. Each of them was nearly two meters tall at the shoulder, with glossy fur, bulging muscles, and was very strong.

At this moment, these beasts, their eyes bloodthirsty and revealing two rows of sharp white teeth, barked incessantly at the convoy.

The next moment, more than twenty mutated giant dogs rushed towards the slowly moving convoy like streaks of lightning.

Whoosh!
Sitting in the passenger seat, Lu Chuan remained calm and composed, but a thought suddenly occurred to him.

Lightning One and other agile evolved corpse puppets jumped directly off the convoy and, at a speed too fast to see clearly, crashed into the giant dog pack before it could reach them. Their steel claws tore through the air in front of them, whistling and flashing with cold light.

The slaughter officially began. Instantly, flesh and blood flew everywhere, tendons and bones were severed, and the giant dog's shrill screams were incessant.

In just a short while, the battlefield in front of the convoy fell completely silent. A large number of huge corpses lay on the ground, exuding a strong stench of blood.

Immediately afterwards, Lightning One and the other evolved corpse puppets quickly removed all the crystal cores from the mutated giant dogs.

Afterwards, they quickly returned to the convoy.

The convoy did not stop for a moment, slowly rolling over the carcasses of some giant dogs.

In the following days, the convoy was attacked by ferocious beasts from time to time. All kinds of ferocious beasts sprang out from various places on both sides of the street, but Lu Chuan dealt with them all with ease.

The main problem is that these ferocious beasts aren't very strong; at most, they're only at the third tier. Any one of Lu Chuan's evolved corpse puppets could take on a whole group of them.

"There aren't any evolved humans in this city, which is understandable, they might be hiding, but how come there isn't even a single zombie?"

As Lu Chuan observed everything outside the car, a question suddenly popped into his mind after a while.

Over such a long period of time, all he saw was ferocious beasts running rampant, with traces of them everywhere, as if the mountains and cities had become their territory.

Looking at the zombie corpses scattered on the ground along the way, a sudden thought flashed through Lu Chuan's mind, and his face immediately showed surprise. Could it be that all the evolved humans and zombies in this mountainous city had been wiped out by these mutated ferocious beasts?
After thinking about it, Lu Chuan felt that the possibility was quite high.

The city of Shanchuan is built amidst mountains, boasting beautiful scenery and a pleasant climate, making it ideal for tourism and wellness. However, with advantages come disadvantages.

That is, because of its location, wild animals from the mountains often accidentally wander into the city, causing some chaos.

As for the current situation in Shanchuan City, it is clear that a large number of mutated ferocious beasts from the surrounding mountains have entered the city and even settled down there, turning Shanchuan City into part of the continuous mountain range.

Thinking of this, Lu Chuan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He had originally thought that once he arrived in Shanchuan City, he would be able to harvest a large number of zombie crystal cores.

Now it seems there's absolutely no hope; all those crystal cores have been snatched up by those damned beasts.

"What the hell? Could this Shanchuan City really have been taken over by a bunch of beasts?"

Not only Lu Chuan noticed this, but Zhao Lin, who had been paying close attention to the outside world, also noticed it, her face showing surprise as she spoke.

"Aunt Zhao Lin, these zombies must have been killed by these ferocious beasts. There must be a lot of ferocious beasts in Shanchuan City!"

Ji Ruxue, who was standing nearby, gave the two a timely reminder.

Although Shanchuan City is relatively small compared to other cities in Jiang Province, before the apocalypse, the number of people living here was at least several hundred thousand.

The number of zombies that turn into zombies must be enormous. These ferocious beasts are capable of clearing out all the zombies, so the number of zombies must be quite large as well.

Not long after, the convoy stopped at the entrance of an upscale residential area.

Haoyun Residential Complex!

Lu Chuan glanced at the name of the residential area and decided to take Xiao Qiqi and Zhao Lin there to rest.

Boom~
The electric gate was smashed open by the mutated giant tortoise, and then the convoy drove straight in.

We drove slowly along the driveway in the residential area, heading towards the nearest building, Building Twelve.

Meanwhile, in a room on the eighth floor of the thirteenth building ahead, an evolved zombie, about the size of a normal person and covered in a thin layer of scales, swung its sharp claws, which gleamed coldly.

The evolved zombies are wandering aimlessly in this empty house.

Suddenly, the evolved zombie paused, as if it had sensed some terrifying aura rapidly approaching.

Immediately, his rather thin body began to tremble uncontrollably, extremely panicked, and fear seemed to surge in his bloodshot eyes.

roar~
With a low growl of terror, the evolved zombie flashed and leaped out of the room's window.

The next moment, a whooshing sound came from the air. The evolved zombie spread out a pair of black scales and fleshy wings that were several meters wide. With a sudden flap of its wings, it stirred up gusts of wind and flew away from the sky at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, only a black dot remained in the sky.

Hearing the commotion, Lu Chuan looked over, was momentarily stunned, and then a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

They were flying zombies!
