"An eighth-tier zombie has appeared in Central Continent!"

"Kentinia base seeks international assistance!"

"Powerful figures from the Northern and Western Continents have already rushed to the Central Continent to provide support..."

Marshal Yang Shize forced Zhang Yunzheng to lie on the bed and discuss the philosophy of life.

After receiving this message, he kicked the person who had both verbally and physically abused him.

Not only did they fail to kick the person off the bed, but they were also severely punished and retaliated against by the petty marshal.

"This eighth-tier zombie from Central Continent was described in the book. It originally advanced in Eastern Continent and was even killed by you personally. It probably escaped to Central Continent because we cleared out all the zombies from Eastern Continent and advanced to the eighth tier ahead of schedule."

There is still one year until the first appearance of an eighth-tier zombie in the original work.

But the current situation is completely different from the original plot provided by the system. Not to mention anything else, the anti-zombie vaccine appeared two years earlier than in the original story.

Zhang Yun was both surprised and not entirely surprised that his blood could be used to extract an anti-zombie vaccine.

He was increasingly convinced that his direct transmigration into the body of Liang Tou, a shopping mall clerk who had already died in this world, was a premeditated plan by the system.

Yang Shize pulled him onto his lap and said, "Xizhou has always prioritized its own interests. This time, it actually sent a powerful expert to support Zhongzhou. Could there be some kind of conspiracy?"

"They are afraid that the Central Continent, like the Southern Continent, will submit to the Eastern Continent, which would completely threaten the status of the Western Continent."

Zhang Yun paused for a moment, then said, "However, Xizhou's international status is now second. We cannot rule out the possibility that they might take action against us in order to restore their prestige. Although doing so would put them at odds with the whole world, there will never be a shortage of short-sighted people among humanity who are keen on infighting."

"Moreover, Ye Hui is hiding in Xizhou. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. It would be strange if he didn't collude with the people of Xizhou to deal with us."

"The strongmen from the Western and Northern Continents have all gone, so we must go to the Eastern Continent. The other side is using an open strategy. To prevent any unexpected events, we will go to the Central Continent together this time, but we must split up. I will act openly, and you will act covertly. How about that?"

"Okay." Yang Shize slowly placed his hand on his waist, extending an invitation, "Brother, before we leave, how about we discuss life one last time?"

Zhang Yun grabbed his wrist, her attitude firm: "No."

Yang Shize had no choice but to reluctantly let go.

Although she knew his expression was fake, Zhang Yun couldn't help but kiss him on the lips. "Be good, we'll continue our discussion when we get back. You can discuss it for as long as you want."

Yang Shize was appeased.

Without further ado, the two explained the situation at the base and then left together for the Kentinia base in Central Continent, where eighth-tier zombies had appeared.

Fearing insufficient damage output, Zhang Yun also ordered eight Tier 7 All-Round Warriors to accompany him.

Central Continent is the second largest continent in the world in terms of both population and area. It is adjacent to Eastern Continent, but its development level is relatively backward.

When the apocalypse first arrived, the chaos of the first two years caused them to lose 85% of their population.

Central Continent is the continent with the most zombies, and also the continent with the strongest zombie force.

This is consistent with the original work.

Before the apocalypse, although the population of the Eastern Continent was larger than that of the Central Continent, the number of survivors in the Eastern Continent was also greater.

Unlike Central Continent, where the lack of weapons and food resulted in a low survival rate, these survivors didn't stay at home and hide; instead, they insisted on going out to worship gods and make pilgrimages.

This successfully increased the number of zombies they encountered.

In the original story, most of the high-level zombies first appeared in the Central Continent in the middle of the story, followed by the Eastern Continent. Later, when the Southern Continent became the main zombie stronghold, the Southern Continent had the most high-level zombies.

After all, the number of zombies in these two continents is what it is; with so many zombies, a few geniuses are bound to emerge from them.

In the original story, the order of destruction of the five continents was South Continent - Central Continent - North Continent - West Continent - East Continent, with the East Continent base guarded by Yang Shize being the last to perish.

On the fighter jet, Zhang Yun used his mental power to sense things on the ground and saw that the sun-baked, cracked earth was covered with countless zombies.

Suddenly, the horde of zombies began to move in one direction.

Zhang Yun expanded his sensing range and saw five survivors.

Leaning on wooden canes, they walked blankly in a certain direction, kneeling down and kowtowing every few steps. Even when zombies were about to get close, no one changed their actions.

"Save them," Zhang Yun said.

The fighter jet's cockpit door opened, and four Tier 7 warriors immediately jumped into the horde of zombies below, wreaking havoc.

The five men and women who had been walking numbly were stunned. A glimmer of light appeared in their dim eyes as they looked at the war gods who had descended from the sky. They couldn't help but kneel down and worship them.

"God has appeared..."

Zhang Yun teleported behind them and opened a portal to the fighter jet. "Get in."

The five people excitedly stood up and walked into the Anywhere Door without hesitation.

After the five of them went inside, Zhang Yun and the four warriors who had intercepted the zombies followed them back to their fighter jet.

All five survivors were from Middle-earth, as evidenced by their dark skin.

They looked starving, so Zhang Yun asked his assistant to prepare hot water and food for them.

The translator learned through questioning that the five people were survivors from a nearby small base, which had been driven out by its leader because of insufficient food.

With no food or clothing, and nowhere to hide from the zombies, they knew they were doomed. So they decided to dedicate their last lives to their faith and embark on a pilgrimage to the ancient river.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yun and his group fell silent.

Although their actions were aiding the enemy, their almost fanatical attitude toward their faith seemed to defy criticism.

Perhaps, the more desperate a person is about life and reality, the more they believe they can find happiness in the afterlife, and the stronger their faith becomes.

Zhang Yun said, "Prepare rooms for them, assign people to watch over them, and don't let them wander around. Once they arrive in Kenya, hand them over to the local government."

"Yes, Chief."

After flying for another two hours, Zhang Yun's fighter jet finally arrived in Kentinya.

While still in the fighter jet, Zhang Yun and his team saw that a large part of the protective wall in western Kenya had collapsed.

There were many people and zombie limbs around. Some of the soldiers at the base threw the remains into a nearby fire pit that was burning fiercely, while others were busy repairing the protective wall.

Some lightly wounded people with bandages wrapped around their bodies were also busy among them.

The arrival of Zhang Yun's fighter jet, emblazoned with a bright red flag representing Dongzhou, immediately drew everyone's attention.

The leader of the Kentinia base, Gavara, greeted Zhang Yun with tears in his eyes. He couldn't even wait for Zhang Yun's fighter jet to land, and was drenched in sand and dust as it landed.

As soon as Zhang Yun stepped off the fighter jet, he walked up to him and grasped Zhang Yun's hands with both of them, saying, "You've finally arrived!"

"Sorry I'm late." After expressing his apology, Zhang Yun looked at the six ability users walking behind him. They were powerful individuals from the Western Continent and the Northern Continent who had come to provide support.

They were all Tier 7 all-around warriors; there were no superhumans.

High-level ability users are too few in number. To each base, they are as precious as treasures, and it is impossible to send them out to support others.

When Zhang Yun looked over, the three powerful figures from the Northern Continent showed excitement in their eyes, like fans meeting their idols. However, due to their status, they forcibly restrained themselves.

The three powerful figures from the Western Continent mostly looked on with wary expressions.

"The zombie horde has just receded, and God Yun has arrived. What a coincidence," a war god from the Western Continent said sarcastically.

Upon hearing this, the seventh-tier war gods behind Zhang Yun showed anger on their faces and were about to step forward, but he stopped them with a wave of his hand.

"If we had arrived earlier, what business would we have had with you here?"

"you!"

Enraged, the War God stepped forward, and four of the eight Eastern Continent War Gods behind Zhang Yun immediately stepped forward to block him, their imposing presence no less than his.

"Hmm?" *4

Seeing this, the other two war gods from the Western Continent quickly pulled their impulsive companion back.

They sent a total of nine War Gods, eight at the seventh rank and one at the ninth rank. Their combat power is overwhelming. If a real fight breaks out, they will be the ones who suffer.

Zhang Yun coldly replied in Xizhou language, "If you have a temper, go home and find your mother. If you're going to act recklessly in front of me, I won't mind granting your wish."

"Your Excellency Yunshen, I am very sorry, he is too young. I apologize on his behalf." Another War God from the Western Continent quickly apologized.

Zhang Yun ignored him and walked straight past them into the building.

This is blatant disregard and humiliation!

The three from the Western Continent turned red with anger, but the three seventh-tier war gods from the Northern Continent had already followed Zhang Yun, so they could only suppress their anger and follow.

Gawala led the guards at the very back, secretly relieved.

The previous battle with that eighth-tier zombie had caused heavy losses to the seventh-tier ability users in their base. With the arrival of these powerful figures from the Western and Northern Continents, they were like dragons pressing down on snakes, and he was powerless to resist.

The four super bases in Central Continent had agreed to help each other, but upon hearing that an eighth-tier zombie had appeared here, not a single base sent any strong personnel to support Kentinia.

Gavara has realized how unreliable the Middle Continent government behind him is. Now, if the superbase Kentinia wants to continue to survive, it can only choose to ally with one of these three forces.

Of these three forces, Dongzhou is clearly the best choice in terms of prestige, strength, and reputation.

He was really worried that his neighbor would give up on him because Dongzhou hadn't sent anyone over for a long time.

Fortunately, they arrived, and it was their leader, Zhang Yun, who came in person!

This clearly demonstrates how much Zhang Yun values ​​Kentinia!

Gawara was so moved he wanted to cry.

Led by Gawala, the group arrived at the conference room, where Zhang Yun and the eight war gods he brought sat down.

Seeing that they had sat down, the war gods of the Western Continent and the Northern Continent also sat down.

Because it's a round table conference room, there's no seating order.

Gavara took the last empty spot.

Zhang Yunxian spoke first: "Chief Gavara, when my fighter jet passed over Guizhou, I encountered five survivors who were being attacked by zombies on their way to the Ancient River. I rescued them and they are in the fighter jet. Please send someone to pick them up later and settle them at the Kentinia base."

After hearing Zhang Yun's translation of these words, Gavara suddenly stood up and walked over to Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun was puzzled, but since everyone else had come over, it would be impolite for him to remain seated, so he also stood up and faced Gawala.

Gavara stopped a meter away from him, clenched his right fist and placed it against his heart, then knelt down on one knee in front of him.

"Honorable God, the Kentinia base and I are willing to offer you our utmost loyalty! We implore you to accept our allegiance and protect your people."

Zhang Yun was stunned.

The young war god from the West slammed his hand on the table, and the wooden round table in the conference room shattered with a crash.

"Gavara, you clearly promised us before..."

Gawala stood up and faced the man, saying:

"Lord Sivido, Kentinia suffered heavy losses after resisting the eighth-order zombies. Not only did you not offer any assistance, but you also used ordinary people to threaten me into agreeing to your unreasonable terms of loyalty. Your shamelessness is obvious to all. Now that Lord Yunshen is willing to rule over Kentinia, I can no longer be threatened by you."

After saying this, Gavara turned around, placed his right fist against his heart, and bowed to Zhang Yun, "God Yun, I beg you to accept Kentinia's allegiance and save the children of Kentinia!"

"You! You despicable, shameless, and untrustworthy black monkey!"

Sivido glared angrily at the war god leading the North Continent, "Lokatovsky (hereinafter referred to as Lokatovsky), say something!"

The North Continent War God Locat, who was suddenly called out, said coldly, "The leader of Gavara has the right to choose whom to serve, and I have nothing to say."

The people of the North Continent are very accepting of the law of the jungle. He understood that Gavara had been threatened by the people of the West Continent to pledge allegiance, and he could also understand that Gavara wanted to switch allegiance to the more powerful and benevolent people of the East Continent.

Although people are disgusted by Gawala's renegade, after the end times arrive, people's moral standards have dropped considerably, and their acceptance of betrayal has increased significantly.

Who isn't just trying to live?

If given a choice, no one would willingly become someone else's vassal.

Anyway, the Northern Continent doesn't accept people—they already don't have enough food, and they rely entirely on aid from the Eastern and Western Continents. The Central Continent is short of resources and has a large population, so they simply can't afford to support them; it would only drag them down.

Zhang Yun: "..."

Zhang Yun's original plan did not include conquering the Central Continent.

The main problem is that Central Continent is resource-poor, has a large population, and is difficult to manage. Taking over this place would be a losing proposition.

If they were from the West, they would naturally treat this place as a colony, ruthlessly plundering its resources and squeezing every last drop of value from each person. But the people of the East are pacifists and don't do that.

“Alright, I accept your surrender, but you must obey all my orders,” Zhang Yun said.

After the zombies from the Eastern Continent were driven out of the country, the Central Continent, the Western Continent, and the Southern Continent became the three major battlefields in the world's fight against zombies.

The North Continent has a small population and few zombies. Moreover, the entire population is armed and the people are highly capable fighters. They were the first alliance to drive the zombies out of the country, but this was only to protect themselves.

The Southern Continent battlefield has entered a stalemate due to the intervention of the Eastern Continent. Moreover, with the increase in immigrants, the balance of power will gradually tilt towards the human side.

Needless to say, the Western Continent is technologically advanced and has abundant weapons, giving them an advantage from the start.

The Central Continent is at a significant disadvantage, and most of the zombies that escaped from the Eastern Continent fled to the Central Continent, which undoubtedly exacerbated the situation there.

There was no other way; eventually, one place had to become the main battlefield on the mainland.

In the original story, the Eastern Continent was the largest battlefield against zombies. During the thirteen-year-long post-apocalyptic era, the number of people who sacrificed their lives in the fight against zombies in the Eastern Continent was the highest in the world.

Are they supposed to deliberately make the Eastern Continent the main battlefield in order to relieve the pressure on the Central Continent, and make tens of millions of their compatriots in the Eastern Continent continue to sacrifice themselves?

Who cares about such self-sacrifice? Zhang Yun and Yang Shize certainly wouldn't do it.

They are willing to sacrifice themselves to save others, but they would not joke about the lives of their fellow citizens.

Only God can achieve equality for all, while they are merely human beings.

Even if one possesses the power to alter the laws of nature like a god, and is known as a war god, a human is still a human and cannot become a god in an instant.
