Chapter 219: Chapter 220: Since You Seek Death, Don’t Blame Me for Being Ruthless!

Under the leadership of Wang Lei, the three teams quickly left the relatively concealed forest and arrived at a flat area.

Not far in front was a blood-red wall constructed of countless Bloodthirsty Vines.

Through the holes in the vine wall, the silhouettes of some zombies could be faintly seen moving back and forth.

"Everyone, if anyone captures that little girl first, try to leave her alive!"

"This Corpse King has significant research value. Despite being a zombie, it possesses considerable intelligence... If we can bring it back for the top to study, discovering its weaknesses would make it much easier for us to deal with such Corpse Kings in the future."

Wang Lei turned around and softly instructed the people behind him.

No one had ever captured this Corpse King before, so they might be the first.

Then, Wang Lei paused and added, "Of course, there’s no need to force the issue. If the situation doesn’t allow it, just kill it directly.

A dead one may not be as valuable as a live one, but it’s enough for our Base City to uncover some secrets from this Corpse King."

After all, despite this being a Corpse King, breaking in and killing it was already quite challenging, let alone bringing it back alive, which would be even harder.

Even though all of these people were second-tier Evolvers, accomplishing such a task was still immensely difficult.

Not far behind the three teams, a little bee flew about in the dark. Through its perspective, Ji Ruxue heard all of Wang Lei’s words, and a chilling sensation filled her heart.

Though she was human, a little girl with a human body and intelligence.

It was a zombie father who raised and saved her.

Yet, these fellow humans only thought of taking her life, which was laughable.

Of course, in Ji Ruxue’s heart, her father’s status had long surpassed racial distinctions.

Without her zombie father, she would have surely starved to death in that powerless state back then...

At this time, the three teams had already reached the Bloodthirsty Vine Wall. Looking at the wall made of red vines, the crowd paid no attention, merely assuming it was an ordinary vine arts wall.

Subsequently, at the signal of the three captains, one member from each of the three teams stepped forward, holding military combat knives, ready to cut the vines and open three passages.

Unexpectedly, just as the three approached and slowly crouched down, extending their knife-wielding hands.

Whizz, whizz, whizz!

Countless piercing sounds abruptly emerged in the darkness.

Under Ji Ruxue’s direct control, the Bloodthirsty Vine Wall appeared to come alive, with Bloodthirsty Demon Vines dancing like serpents, sharp and blood-red, resembling long scarlet spears.

Suddenly, from the vine wall, Bloodthirsty Demon Vines started moving, their tips raising, a blood red glow, emanating a chilling sharpness.

In an instant, the three at the front, too close, couldn’t dodge in time, directly pierced through by several Bloodthirsty Demon Vines, penetrating their chests and splattering blood onto the faces of those behind.

Ah~

The three let out cries of pain, hoisted into the air by the Bloodthirsty Demon Vines, their blood and energy ravenously consumed by the vines, leaving them pale, unable even to use their talent abilities, their cries growing weaker.

"Not good! There’s something wrong with this vine wall, what in the world is this red vine?!"

"Damn Demon Vine!"

"Quickly, save them..."

"..."

The sudden turn of events startled everyone behind them.

No one expected that the vines forming this wall were actually a living entity.

"Quickly, save them!"

Staring at the three being impaled, Wang Lei and the others snapped back, preparing to rescue them.

Just then, numerous Bloodthirsty Demon Vines rushed towards the crowd from the side, giving them no chance to rescue.

Boom, boom, boom~

The group had no choice but to first block the attacking Bloodthirsty Demon Vines. In no time, various abilities were unleashed.

"Kill!"

Yang Xiu, Liu Yang, and other close combat gifted ones stood at the front, swinging their Three-foot Cyan Blades, Heavy Horse-Cutting Blades, and other weapons, clashing with the Bloodthirsty Demon Vines incessantly.

Each confrontation between the sides erupted with thunderous sounds.

At this moment, Wang Lei, with his entire body hardened like steel, his skin gleaming metallically, stood at the forefront of the battle, taking the bulk of the attacks.

But he showed no fear, his punches thunderous, endlessly countering the Bloodthirsty Demon Vines that looked like scarlet lances.

Each collision between Wang Lei’s physique and the Bloodthirsty Demon Vines produced crisp metallic clashing sounds, deafening.

Meanwhile, the three previously pierced by the Bloodthirsty Demon Vines were quickly dragged back to the Bloodthirsty Vine Wall, firmly secured.

"Ah~ Save—me!"

The three only had time to emit a shrill cry for help.

The next moment, more Bloodthirsty Demon Vines surged in from all directions, engulfing them in mere breaths, their sounds vanished completely.

"Damn it! What the hell is this thing?!"

Witnessing this scene, Wang Lei and the others were furious, charging forward with full force, trying to retrieve the three.

"Ah~"

Yet, this caused chaos in their formation, allowing two weaker Evolvers to be seized by the Bloodthirsty Demon Vines, their bodies pierced and lifted high.

Then, the two were also drawn back towards the vine wall by the vines.

Facing this situation, the group, under heavy attack by the Bloodthirsty Vines, was helpless, forced to watch as their companions were dragged into the vine wall, then engulfed by the lethal vines.

In the farm.

Sleeping under the slide, Zhao Lin awoke immediately upon hearing the screams.

Gazing outside the farm, at the area flickering with various lights, her expression was somewhat grave.

So it’s begun?

It was faster than expected, and it seemed humanity had suffered a significant loss.

It seems Little Qiqi was right; this time, the Corpse King should be able to handle it.

In the room, observing this through the viewpoint of a Corpse Puppet, Lu Chuan also reacted swiftly.

Subsequently, Lu Chuan immediately directed a Corpse Puppet to move outside the farm.

Seeing the Evolutionary Squad entangled with the Bloodthirsty Vine Forest, Lu Chuan’s expression turned icy cold, filled with a chilling intent.

Indeed, human Evolvers had set their sights on the farm, sneaking in under cover of darkness with ill intentions, but unfortunately, these fools failed to detect the abnormal nature of the Bloodthirsty Vines.

Luckily, thanks to Little Qiqi’s warning, he was prepared, or it truly could have resulted in disaster.

Thinking of this, the killing intent in Lu Chuan’s heart surged dramatically, his eyes reflecting a bloodthirsty hue.

Very well, very well, since you seek death, I shall grant it to you!
