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

Chapter 398 Heavy Losses, Zhao Lin Steps Forward!

Time passed slowly, and Zhao Lin led her team to Shanchuan City, where they joined up with other base city teams that had already arrived.

After communicating with the suicide squad in Jianghai Base City, Zhao Lin led a group of subordinates to a cave.

Yuan Yi, the captain of the Jianghai Base City Suicide Squad, walked over with a smile and said politely, "I am Yuan Yi, the captain of the Jianghai Squad. You must be Commander Zhao! Please come in."

"Captain Yuan, have all the teams from the other cities arrived?"

Zhao Lin reached out and shook hands with the other person, asking questions as they walked.

She was delayed for most of the day because she was reporting to Lu Chuan. By now, everyone should have arrived.

"Commander Zhao, except for Qinghe Base City, which is the farthest away and has not yet arrived, all the other base cities have already arrived."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yi responded.

Soon everyone entered the cave. Inside, the members of the various base city teams greeted the new team as they arrived.

"Haha, this must be Commander Zhao from Yuhua Base City! I am Zhang Honggang, the captain of the Beichen Base City team."

"Commander Zhao, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to take care of the upcoming mission..."

"You're too kind, you're all so kind..."

"..."

After exchanging pleasantries, the team leaders dispersed, while Zhao Lin led her men to set up camp in an open area of ​​the cave.

Half a day later, the team from Qinghe Base City, which was the furthest away, finally arrived.

Next, led by Yuan Yi, the team leaders went to the simple long table in the center of the cave to discuss the mission.

"As you all should know, the most important part of this mission is to guide Thunder Roar towards Lijiang Base City, so that this beast and the Zombie King will fight like dogs."

Yuan Yi looked around at everyone and spoke slowly.

Then, Yuan Yi took out a metal box from under the table and placed it on the table.

Immediately, the metal box attracted everyone's attention, and all eyes turned to it.

Yuan Yi entered the password, opened the box, and revealed eight purple bracelets that looked like bangles inside.

These bracelets appear to be inlaid with a purple crystal, emitting a faint sparkle, with occasional streaks of lightning extending from within the crystal and wandering across the surface of the purple bracelet.

"This is?"

Zhao Lin looked at the contents of the box with some curiosity. The other party took them out, explaining that they would definitely need them for this mission.

At this moment, the other base city team leaders also looked at Yuan Yi curiously, waiting for her explanation.

"What's inside are lightning-gathering rings specially developed by our Jianghai base city for this mission. Don't underestimate them because they're small; in a short time, these lightning-gathering rings can condense terrifying lightning power."

Thunder Roar has a penchant for absorbing lightning power. Once we activate the Lightning Gathering Ring, Thunder Roar will sense it and pounce on us relentlessly.

Yuan Yi, with a serious expression, introduced the group to everyone.

The Thunder Ring is designed specifically to counter Thunder Roar's lightning-absorbing properties, and it's guaranteed to attract the opponent's attention.

"Captain Yuan, do you want us to take this Thunder Gathering Ring and lure Thunder Roar to Lijiang Base City?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Honggang, the team leader of the Beichen Base City squad, said with a solemn expression.

This Thunder Roar is an extremely ferocious fifth-tier beast. Trying to lure it ahead and prevent it from catching up would be quite difficult, and might even be life-threatening.

“That’s right. You need someone to lead the Thunder Ring and guide it from the front so that we can successfully lure Thunder Roar to Lijiang Base City.” Yuan Yi nodded. Upon hearing this, all the team leaders present frowned; they all realized the danger of this operation.

Comparing speed and endurance with a fifth-tier ferocious beast is no easy task.

"Gentlemen, this mission was fraught with peril, and from now on, we will be comrades-in-arms who will share life and death."

I have no objection to using the Thunder Ring to lure out Thunder Roar.

At this moment, Zhao Lin spoke up, saying in a deep voice.

They are a suicide squad, and casualties are inevitable. Instead of dwelling on this, we should take immediate action.

After Zhao Lin's reminder, everyone present understood that this time was different from usual. In order to complete the mission, no matter how dangerous it was, they had to carry it out.

"I have no objection either, let's use this lightning ring!"
Besides this, I really can't think of any other good way to successfully lure Thunder Roar to Lijiang Base City.

Zhang Honggang, the captain of the Beichen Squad, shook his head and said.

Subsequently, the other team leaders nodded slightly, indicating their agreement with Yuan Yi's plan.

Next, after discussion, a plan of action was decided: each team would take turns sending one person, holding a lightning-gathering ring, to attract the roaring thunder.

The next morning, outside the cave.

Zhao Lin and the other team leaders looked at the selected individuals standing in a row in front of them with serious expressions.

These people all wore lightning-gathering rings on their arms, and some looked nervous.

"Thunder's temper is getting increasingly volatile, everyone must be careful," Yuan Yi warned, looking at the crowd.

"Yes!"

Ten minutes later, the operation to lure Thunder Roar was quickly launched. The first to act was a member of Jianghai's team, a young man with a braid and an artistic air.

He then activated the lightning-gathering ring on his arm, and instantly, a dazzling purple lightning flashed, accompanied by crackling and popping sounds that continuously exploded in the surrounding environment.

The young man, enveloped in lightning, quickly moved towards the ravine where the thunder roared.

Roar!
Before they could even get close, a deafening roar echoed throughout the pine forest as a colossal creature charged rapidly toward them.

"Run!" Yuan Yi's loud shout came through the young evolver's earpiece.

Immediately, the young evolved human, snapping out of his daze, changed his expression drastically, quickly turned around, found the direction of Lijiang Base City, and fled at top speed.

Unfortunately, Thunder Roar was too fast. Its massive body was like a purple lightning bolt, and it caught up with the young evolved human in just two minutes.

boom!
"Ah~"

A bolt of lightning shot out, and the young evolved human running in front screamed as he was reduced to charred remains.

"Damn it..." Yuan Yi and the others who were observing from afar had extremely ugly expressions.

Next, one evolved being after another was sent out, but the results were basically the same as the first one. Those who were lured were either killed or maimed under the bombardment of the thunderous roar, resulting in heavy losses and causing many members to feel fear.

Inside the cave.

"Currently, two members have already sacrificed their lives, and four are seriously injured. The distance to lure Thunder Roar is only halfway there, and many members are reluctant to..."

Yuan Yi said with a grim expression.

"Let me do it!" Zhao Lin suddenly spoke up from the side.
