Chapter 320 I'd rather die standing than live kneeling
The Zombie King frowned, and seeing that Wang Zhen was still stubbornly charging towards him, he was too lazy to waste any more words with him.
His right hand, which was gripping the sickle, remained hanging naturally at his sides; he simply slowly raised his left hand.
In the Zombie King's eyes, the gap between Wang Zhen and him was far too great; he was confident that he could take him down with one hand.
He said it calmly.
"Then let's fight."
...
At this moment, Steward Wang dared not be careless in the slightest.
He had no confidence whatsoever when facing the zombie king, but he had no choice but to stand up and confront the enemy head-on!
Since the arrival of the Ice Crystal Virus, humans and the zombie creatures have formed an antagonistic relationship.
If the underground research institute represents humanity on this land, then the zombie king is the king of the ghouls.
Even if the Zombie King doesn't attack here today, he will lead his men to hunt down the Zombie King outside when everything is ready at the underground research institute!
At this moment, there is no longer a distinction between right and wrong; both of them are selfish towards their own tribes.
...
Meanwhile, Wang Bahu, standing on a rooftop not far away, stared intently at the two figures in front of him.
He only learned of the existence of the Zombie King tonight!
At this moment, although the Zombie King had not yet made a move, he could vaguely sense the terrifying power contained within the scarlet body in front of him...
"Can you survive this monster?"
Just as Wang Bahu was thinking this, the next moment, an unbelievable scene unfolded.
...
And there it was!
Manager Wang raised his fist and smashed it straight at the Zombie King.
He used all his strength in that punch; it was impeccable in both speed and power.
Unfortunately, his opponent was the Zombie King, a terrifying being that could not be judged by common sense.
It happened in the blink of an eye!
Just as the fist was about to land on the zombie king, Manager Wang seemed to see a hand flash past his eyes.
Then, he felt a strange force impacting his right hand.
His fist was deflected; the zombie king easily neutralized the attack with just his left hand.
The next instant, Steward Wang saw that hand coming toward him again.
With his enhanced brain computing ability, he quickly calculated the landing point in his mind when he saw the zombie king's palm strike.
"The location of the heart!"
He dared not underestimate him in the slightest. Seeing that there was no chance to dodge, he could only slightly adjust his position to avoid the vital points.
This means that he has to take the blow head-on.
"Smack!"
The sound of clapping hands rang out, and at the same time, Steward Wang felt a sharp pain in his body.
Although the Zombie King's palm strike didn't hit his vital points, the enormous impact still sent him flying.
"ah--!"
Manager Wang screamed as he flew through the air before crashing to the ground 5 meters away.
The zombie king remained standing in place, not giving chase, but simply watching him quietly.
In the moment the two clashed, the difference in their abilities was revealed in less than a second.
...
"So strong!"
Wang Bahu stared wide-eyed, somewhat unable to believe what he was seeing.
Not long ago, during the war above, he had already guessed from the performance of Chief Steward Wang that his older brother had completed the 6th evolution.
He knew that humans with level 6 evolutionary genes were already among the strongest in the entire human population.
He never expected that his brother, whom he had been chasing, would be so helpless when facing the zombie king.
He couldn't even withstand a single blow from his opponent...
Upon seeing this, even the usually fearless Wang Bahu felt a faint sense of fear.
This kind of emotion would never have appeared in his heart in the past.
"This is...this is terrifying..."
He muttered something to himself blankly, then involuntarily trembled.
He wanted to escape from here as quickly as possible. He knew that no one in the entire underground research institute was a match for this zombie king.
However, just as he turned around and took a step, he hesitated to take a second step forward.
He turned his head and glanced again at Steward Wang lying on the ground, his eyes filled with some conflict, as if he were having an internal struggle.
He quickly pulled his raised left leg back, took a deep breath, and turned around again.
"Phew~"
In the end, he did not choose to leave.
He still wanted to see how his older brother fared in the end...
Because his older brother is the goal he has always strived for.
He kept collecting the turbid liquid, striving to improve his strength, also hoping to catch up with his older brother.
...
"Cough, cough."
Just as Wang Bahu turned back around, a soft cough came from ahead.
At this moment, Manager Wang, who was lying on the ground, had tattered clothes, a pale face, and blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.
Nevertheless, he slowly got up from the ground and once again looked straight ahead at the zombie king.
"Was the difference in strength ultimately too great?"
He thought to himself, then his eyes became serious again, and he clenched his fists and continued to rush forward.
He knew that with his current strength, he probably had no chance of winning.
Even though he was no match for the zombie king, even though he was already exhausted, even though he was seriously injured... he still refused to give up...
He thought he could delay the zombie king a little longer, because that way, more people would be able to escape from here...
...
Through their previous exchange, the Zombie King had already discerned Wang Zhen's current physical condition.
Compared to their last encounter in the zombie city, Wang Zhen appeared much weaker now.
He knew this was because Wang Zhen had already experienced a major battle before he arrived...
At this moment, the Zombie King saw Wang Zhen charging towards him again and muttered to himself.
"Are you that persistent?"
The next second, he slapped him away again.
"ah--!"
Another scream rang out, and after being repeatedly struck, Steward Wang coughed up a mouthful of blood on the spot.
At that moment, he heard the voice of the Zombie King.
"Wang Zhen! Are you really not afraid of death? What I just said still stands!"
"If you stop now and are willing to join my side, I can still spare your life!"
As soon as the words fell, Steward Wang got up from the ground once again.
He shook his head with a wry smile, then dragged his injured body and rushed over again.
He believed that what the zombie king had just said was true.
He also knew that if he begged for mercy now, he could definitely save his life.
But he didn't want to; he didn't want to do it.
Because he is a person!
He would not go against his conscience to do anything that would harm humanity!
He would rather die standing than live on his knees!
