Chapter 74 Who exactly is the city lord?



Below, there are centipedes constantly ambushing and killing people, and outside, there is a zombie army surrounding them. Although the zombie king is no longer in command, the zombie army is still terrifying.

The combined pressure from both inside and outside cast a shadow over everyone's hearts.

"The rules of the apocalypse are like the matchmaking system in a game: the strong meet the strong, and the weak meet the weak. The centipedes, which should have appeared after the new era, have appeared now. Could it be that some super strong person has appeared in another region?"

The city lord couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lin's expression faltered slightly, and a strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart.

He couldn't help but glance at the city lord.

If we accept the city lord's explanation, then is it because of his appearance that monsters like the Centipede Corpse appeared in the early stages of the Resident Evil?

Ji Yuetong was also taken aback.

She had heard this theory before, but it wasn't universally accepted. Now that the city lord had brought it up, she couldn't help but think of Zhang Lin.

Four legendary extraordinary templates, and Zhang Lin has other trump cards, so it seems... the appearance of a monster like the Thousand-Legged Corpse is reasonable.

"City Lord, what time is it now? Why are you still talking about these things? Quickly think of a way to deal with the Thousand-Legged Corpse." Ji Yuetong didn't want the City Lord to suspect Zhang Lin, so she quickly changed the subject.

"You think I suspect Zhang Lin?" The city lord saw through Ji Yuetong's little scheme at a glance, then smiled faintly, "In the past, there were at most two Corpse Kings, but this time there were four. Why do you think I didn't take action?"

He looked very confident.

Because he had carefully observed Zhang Lin's strength, it seemed that he was only worth about two Corpse Kings.

Therefore, he was in no hurry to make a move at that time.

According to the rules, since two more Corpse Kings have appeared, Zhang Lin must have the strength to match them.

But at this time, not only did the Corpse King appear, but also the Thousand-Legged Corpse.

In terms of raw strength, the Thousand-Legged Corpse is no match for the Corpse King.

However, the main role of the Zombie King is to command the zombie army, while the Centipede Zombie has the troublesome ability to burrow underground and is extremely fast. Although its killing efficiency is not as high as that of the zombie army, the fear and panic it causes are greater than that of the zombie army.

You can tell just by looking at everyone's reactions now.

With the zombie army at your feet, everyone will die if you don't resist. But now that the zombie king is dead, the deadly threat is gone, but there is a centipede zombie. You could die from its sneak attack at any time. This is completely different.

Now everyone has lost the will to fight and only wants to protect themselves.

"That doesn't make sense either. If a super strong person appeared in another region, why would the difficulty in Hope City have increased?" The city lord was completely oblivious to the situation on the ground and was lost in his own thoughts.

What time is it, why are you still thinking about these things?

Zhang Lin was somewhat puzzled.

Shouldn't the city lord be trying to find a way to kill the centipede corpse right now?

But he didn't realize that the city lord's way of thinking was completely different from theirs.

The city lord awakened his memories multiple times. In a sense, he was immortal. His death now was merely to accumulate experience for his future self.

For him, the number of people killed by the centipede zombies is not important at all; what matters most is figuring out the various rules of the apocalypse.

In this respect, Zhang Lin's thoughts are completely different from those of the city lord. For Zhang Lin, life is only once, and he will not think about past lives or present lives. Even if he dies and the world restarts and he awakens his memories, Zhang Lin will not think that it is himself.

Only the person I am now is truly myself!

So, while the city lord was pondering whether new rules had emerged in the apocalypse, he was thinking about how to deal with the Thousand-Legged Corpse.

If the Thousand-Legged Corpse appears because of him, then Zhang Lin must deal with it even more. Since it appeared for him, its ultimate target must also be him.

If you don't want to be killed by a centipede that suddenly appears from the ground while you're sleeping with your wife, then you must kill the centipede first!

Having made up his mind, Zhang Lin began searching for a way to kill the Thousand-Legged Corpse.

The centipede is known to have two main characteristics: 1. Digging ability, 2. Extremely fast speed.

To kill the centipede, you must first limit its two abilities.

Zhang Lin observed the locations of the murdered individuals and noticed a pattern: "The centipede must possess considerable intelligence; it chooses targets that are alone and relatively strong!"

Let's not talk about Zhou Weibing before. He was originally the third captain, but was later squeezed out of the position by Zhang Lin and moved to fourth. His captaincy proved his strength.

The people Zhang Lin killed afterward were all people he remembered, and they had all performed well in previous battles.

"In other words, it chooses to eliminate those who are powerful and pose a threat to it first. The reason it didn't choose us is because we are positioned relatively close, and it can't find an opportunity!" Zhang Lin had already understood the killing pattern of the centipede.

At that moment, another scream rang out.

When the dust settled, new victims appeared.

"Big brother!"

A young man ran over, hugged the body, and wept bitterly.

Then, the centipede reappeared from the cave, ambushed the young man, killed him instantly, and then burrowed back into the cave with the man's heart in its body.

Zhang Lin finally got a clear look at the centipede.

It was a zombie over two meters tall. Its upper body was human, and its lower body was somewhat like a centipede. Its densely packed lower limbs were covered with sharp claws that could kill people, but it was even better at digging holes.

It is yellowish-brown in color, and its human features are almost gone. Its mouth is full of sharp teeth, and the gaps are filled with soil.
