Chapter 240 Catching a Turtle in a Jar



This time.

It still doesn't have the right to refuse.

Onimaru knew very well that Zhang Hao had seemingly given him two choices, but in reality there was only one.

It could actually collaborate with Ranfan.

Or give the Dawn Society false information to ambush them.

However, Zhang Hao is a meticulous person and would not be so trusting. He would definitely verify the authenticity of the information before taking action.

As long as the intelligence is found to be false.

Zhang Hao and Li Ming would be unharmed, but their secrets would be exposed, making them universally reviled among the zombie horde.

For them, the zombies...

They can fight amongst themselves for power, and they can kill each other.

Killing a zombie isn't that serious, and even secretly harming a zombie isn't a big deal, as long as there's no direct evidence... Zombies don't really care how many zombies have died.

But they absolutely cannot kill zombies just because humans do it.

Because in the eyes of intelligent zombies, humans are just food. The vast majority of zombies have dignity, and they will unite, especially when threatened as a group.

For example, the zombies like Burning Fire and Burning Second that Zhang Hao killed before.

They revealed the secret of the Spirit Fire, which would threaten the zombie race, so life became unimportant to them.

But there are always some unusual zombies.

For example, Onimaru and Momiji's behavior is no different from that of traitors.

But in Onimaru's eyes...

This is a testament to its endurance and resilience, a willingness to endure hardship for the sake of its people.

In particular, the rapid rise of the Dawn Society made it realize that Zhang Hao was like the chosen one of humanity, and almost no difficulties could frustrate him along the way. This human was like someone who had cheated.

Onimaru instinctively felt...

Sooner or later, Zhang Hao will make the zombie horde fade into the dust of history.

So a temporary defection is nothing. As long as we always remember our hostile stance as zombies, one day it will make the zombies stand up again.

So what if I'm not understood?

As long as Onimaru is alive, the zombies will remain.

But it cannot place its hopes on itself forever, because it lacks confidence that it can ultimately defeat Zhang Hao.

so……

He spoke of a second hope.

Their hopes were pinned on the creation of zombie life.

As long as their research succeeds, even if the zombie forces such as the Little Ghost Alliance, the Burning Lamp Alliance, and the Crimson Wings are wiped out, the zombies will still have hope of making a comeback.

Guiwan immediately ordered, "Guiyin, go and find out the locations of most of the members of the Burning Lamp Alliance. I'm going to meet with Ranfan to test his attitude and cover up your actions. Remember not to expose yourself."

“I understand, but Zhang Hao asked for information on all members of the Burning Lamp Alliance. Will this affect our cooperation? Or will Zhang Hao hold a grudge against us?” Gui Yin asked worriedly.

"What are you taking your anger out on?"

Onimaru said calmly, "As long as we kill the vast majority of the Burning Lanterns, they still won't be able to trigger a zombie horde in the entire city. Millions of zombies are nothing to the Dawn Society."

"Besides..."

"We can't afford to offend them all. If Ranfan happens to survive, even though it has no evidence to prove that we cooperated with humans, it could still easily be smeared. Do you understand?"

"Understood, boss."

Guiyin left with a few little ghosts.

Onimaru then went outside and went to the opera house next door.

Upon entering, you'll see Ranfan on stage, playing "Symphony No. 5" on the piano, with lights shining on him.

A black tuxedo, head held high with passion.

His posture was becoming more and more like that of a real pianist, while Onimaru sat in the front row, quietly enjoying the performance without saying a word.

Ran Fan stood up and bowed several times.

Clap clap! Clap clap clap!

Onimaru clapped enthusiastically and praised, "Ranfan, your playing skills are getting better and better. Perhaps you can become the only hall-of-fame pianist among the zombie kings."

Ran Fan smiled calmly: "Haha, you flatter me."

"I still have a long way to go. By the way, what brings you here? Did you come specifically to hear me play?"

"Of course not, Dawn is going to launch an attack on Linhai City."

"Huh? So fast?"

"Yes."

Onimaru slowly said, "Zhang Hao issued you an ultimatum, saying that if you surrender on behalf of the zombies... he can spare your life, and the zombie horde in Linhai City will not be wiped out."

"Hahaha!"

Ran Fan couldn't help but sneer: "What a ridiculous joke! You want me, Ran Fan, to surrender? Although I'm not a level seven... his Dawn Society only has a few hundred thousand members, right? As long as I unleash a zombie horde, what can Zhang Hao use to fight me?"

“That arrogant fool, if he dares to come at dawn, I’ll make sure they all die here. This time, he won’t escape so easily like last time.”

"It's good that you have confidence."

Onimaru said nothing more.

He turned and left the opera house with the kids.

Several lanterns emerged from behind the opera house curtain. Ran Fan calmly said, "Send zombies to keep an eye on Gui Wan's [Little Ghost Alliance]. This guy's stance is unclear... He's made several secret deals with Zhang Hao, so we can't be too careful."

"in addition……"

"The biggest variable in the Dawn Society is Zhang Hao. He is already one of the few humans who have stepped into the realm of advanced awakened beings, and he always creates miracles. Go and investigate whether Zhang Hao will participate in this operation."

"What if they don't come?" Ran Jin asked.

"If they don't come, then there's nothing to worry about. If the Dawn Society enters Linhai City, then we'll keep them all here. If they do come, then we'll let the [Red Wing] and [Pretender] forces take over and integrate all the elite zombies."

"Why not let the zombies gather in advance?"

“I’ve checked. There are nearly ten million zombies in Leizhou City. The reason why Zhang Hao wiped them out so easily is that although they gathered the zombies together, they were managed by eight zombie kings.”

Ran Jin suggested, "This gives them the opportunity to defeat them one by one, but you, the leader, are already the only zombie king in Linhai City. As long as you gather all the zombies together, once Dawn enters Linhai City... that will be a certain death."

Ran Fan countered, "Have you ever thought about that?"

"What if the zombies gather together and make Dawn afraid? Even if there's danger... they'll still go in?"

"What the Alliance Leader said makes sense," Ran Jin nodded.

"Zombies can gather, but not now. The Dawn Society is growing too fast. This is the best time to destroy the Dawn Society."

Ran Fan revealed a confident smile: "I can't miss this opportunity... Let's trap them like turtles in a jar, I'll make Zhang Hao regret it."
