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

Chapter 389 The Base City's desperate gamble, success or failure hinges on this!

The scene ahead startled the third stealth evolver, causing him to abruptly stop as he was about to approach.

Just seconds ago, my teammate was alive and well, and now he's gone. The power of Thunder Roar is truly terrifying.

Even a casual blow from the opponent is something these evolved beings cannot withstand.

Especially for a stealth evolved human like him with low combat power, he has absolutely no ability to resist.

At that moment, the lightning on Thunder Roar quickly subsided, the lightning dissipated, and it returned to its previous state.

Gazing at the roaring thunder ahead, the third stealth evolved being looked terrified, hesitating whether to continue approaching.

After all, life is only once, and no one knows when this Thunder Roar will go berserk again. If he goes too close, he may end up like his teammate just now.

Ultimately, the third stealth evolved being chose to retreat.

Compared to completing the tasks mentioned above, he felt that his own life and safety were the most important.

With nimble movements, the third stealth evolver retreated quickly without making a sound.

Meanwhile, Thunder Roar, who was acting strangely, had clearly not noticed the third stealth evolved being. He was still using his huge bear paws to violently slam the stones on the ground, creating a huge commotion and causing the ground to shake continuously.

Shortly afterward, the third stealth evolved being safely evacuated from the pine forest and arrived at a cave several kilometers away from Thunder Roar.

At this moment, inside the cave, all the other members of the team looked anxious.

came back?
Upon seeing the third stealth evolved being enter, all five evolved beings quickly stood up and walked over with delighted expressions.

The leader was a burly middle-aged man with broad shoulders and a resolute face.

It was Yuan Yi, the captain of this Evolver team.

"Fang Yulin, what's going on? Why can't I reach you?"

Yuan Yi stepped forward and asked anxiously.

He had previously contacted two team members and given them orders, but when he tried to ask about the results again, no one responded.

After several more attempts, the same thing happened, which made him and the entire team very anxious, worried that something might have happened to the two.

After all, everyone knows how terrifying that thunderous roar is. For ordinary stealth evolvers like Fang Yulin, if they make a mistake and are discovered, they will surely die.

"Captain, the situation was urgent just now, and I didn't have time to pay attention. The communicator may have been lost."

With a heavy heart, Fang Yulin was reminded by the captain and then realized what was happening. He touched his empty left ear and responded.

The situation really startled him. In the process of escaping, he didn't care about the communicator at all, and he didn't even notice when it was lost.

"Is it an emergency? Why did you come back alone? Where is Lin Hai?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yi's expression changed, as if she had discovered something. She looked behind Fang Yulin and asked with a somewhat unpleasant expression.

Sensing something amiss in Fang Yulin's words, Yuan Yi suddenly had a bad feeling.

The team members standing behind Yuan Yi also frowned, their eyes fixed on Fang Yulin.
"Captain, Lin Hai has sacrificed himself!"

After a moment of silence, Fang Yulin's face paled slightly, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes. He looked at Yuan Yi and the others and said in a deep voice.

what!
Yuan Yi and the others were shocked, and then a feeling of grief and indignation welled up in their hearts.

Although they had their suspicions, hearing the truth still made it hard for them to accept.

"Fang Yulin, what exactly happened?"

"It's just a reconnaissance mission, we just need to be careful. How could Lin Hai die?"

"damn it……"

The crowd exclaimed in disbelief, "Fang Yulin, what exactly happened? Tell us!"

Yuan Yi's face was extremely gloomy as he stared at Fang Yulin and questioned him in a cold voice.

"Captain, it's that Thunder Roar! That beast is terrifying! It keeps unleashing indiscriminate thunderous attacks, and we can't get close at all!"

Lin Hai was struck by lightning and killed just as he got close.

Therefore, we have been unable to determine the cause of the Thunder Roar anomaly.

Fang Yulin, sensing the gazes of the crowd, quickly offered an explanation.

This is truly no one's fault but his; if he had been struck by that lightning, he would have been killed.

Through Fang Yulin's narration, everyone present roughly understood what had happened, and immediately, they all frowned.

This thunderous roar was truly bizarre, constantly emitting lightning. Therefore, it wasn't too surprising that Fang Yulin and his group failed to complete their mission.

The sacrifice of just one teammate left them all in a terrible mood.

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

A female evolver shouted angrily, her eyes red.

"Qian Yao, calm down. We are just as saddened by Lin Hai's death as we are by his side. We wish we could go and kill that beast right now."

However, the difference in strength between us and that beast is enormous; we cannot act rashly!

Upon hearing this, an evolved being standing nearby offered words of advice with a worried expression.

"Sigh, as a member of a suicide squad, Lin Hai must have been prepared to sacrifice himself long ago!"

"This Thunder Roar is definitely not something our team can handle alone. Let's wait until everyone from the other base cities has arrived before we take action!"

Finally, Yuan Yi, whose expression had eased slightly, sighed and shook her head helplessly.

They came voluntarily, which means they were prepared to sacrifice themselves, but now is not the time to alert them.

After all, this might be the last chance. Both sides are fighting to the death. If the operation fails, the zombie king will be uncontrollable, and in the end, the entire Jiang Province will fall into the hands of zombies.

Success or failure hinges on this moment, so we must be extremely cautious. It would be best for humanity to gather the greatest possible strength before taking action against the zombie king.

Yuan Yi spoke, successfully calming the restless emotions of the crowd.

"Qian Yao, how much longer will it take for the Thunder Gathering Ring to be fully activated?"

Yuan Yi turned around, looked at Qian Yao, and asked with a serious expression.

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

Made from the bones of ferocious beasts, mutated plants, and crystal cores, it possesses the ability to gather and store a large amount of lightning power within a short period of time.

When it's time to lure Thunder Roar, once the Thunder Gathering Ring is activated, Thunder Roar, which loves lightning, will definitely be attracted.

"Captain, it will probably take another three hours for the Lightning Ring to be fully activated!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Yao reached out to check the time and looked up to respond.

"Three hours? Good. You must manage Julei Environmental Protection well. This is the key to completing this mission. It absolutely cannot fail. Understand?"

After listening, Yuan Yi nodded and offered some advice.

"understand!"
