Chapter 272: Chapter 273: Subjugation!

The Licker moved with incredible speed, its limbs touching the ground. In the blink of an eye, it crawled down from the tall building opposite and swiftly leaped between the two buildings.

If given a little more time, the Licker would inevitably reach the third floor of Building Eight, posing a threat to Ji Ruxue and Zhao Lin.

Lu Chuan naturally wouldn’t let this creature have its way. Just as the Licker descended from Building Nine, the fourth-tier Corpse Puppets stationed in various positions moved under Lu Chuan’s control.

Lightning One, standing in the living room, moved behind Ji Ruxue and Zhao Lin for protection while Earth Escape One came to Lu Chuan’s side.

Tyrant One, stationed at the entrance of Building Eight, and Da Pang, quickly charged at the Licker, followed by Flame One and Flame Two, ready to strike at any moment.

Da Pang suddenly went berserk at the entrance of the district, knocking away all the oncoming zombies, sweeping through the horde, killing most of them, then hurriedly returned to the district.

By this time, Tyrant One and Da Pang had already trapped the Licker at the foot of Building Eight.

"Dad is taking action!"

Seeing a series of rapidly moving fourth-tier Corpse Puppets, Ji Ruxue said with relief.

Indeed, with so many zombie subordinates as ears and eyes, any movement in this district would be known to dad instantly.

Zhao Lin also completely relaxed now. With the Corpse King present, this evolved zombie, no matter how terrifying, couldn’t pose any threat.

"Why does this Bloodthirsty Monster look even uglier now?"

Through the perspective of Tyrant One, Lu Chuan could see this Bloodthirsty Monster more clearly and found it even more hideous and ferocious compared to when it was seen in Sunshine District.

However, Lu Chuan wouldn’t underestimate it just because of its appearance. Although the Bloodthirsty Monster looked ugly, its abilities were not to be underestimated.

Especially that tongue, resembling a long spear.

The previous Bloodthirsty Zombie in Sunshine District nearly killed Lu Chuan.

"Roar!"

The Licker gazed at its kind blocking its path with violent eyes, its mouth splitting into four parts like a blooming flower, letting out a scream.

In the next moment, the Licker’s feet pushed off the ground forcefully. It charged towards Tyrant One and Da Pang with speed like lightning, its sharp claws gleaming coldly, aiming at Tyrant One’s chest.

Roar~

Da Pang and Tyrant One, undeterred, roared and swiftly charged forward under Lu Chuan’s control.

Boom!

They collided instantly. The Licker’s sharp claws cut across Tyrant One’s chest, slicing through the black armor and leaving a shallow gash.

Tyrant One’s swinging claws tore through the Licker’s right arm, pulling off a piece of flesh.

Immediately, their bodies collided, and the impact wavered Tyrant One’s stance.

The Licker, light on its feet, tried to lock its limbs around Tyrant One’s body, while its long tongue hovered above, attempting to stab down into Tyrant One’s head.

Roar~

Tyrant One roared furiously, slamming its arms towards the Licker’s body, trying to pull it off, while its claws frantically tore at the Licker.

At this moment, Da Pang’s attack arrived.

Boom!

Da Pang’s massive iron fist swung fiercely, accompanied by a terrifying whistling wind, striking the Licker’s waist.

The Licker let out a cry of pain, and its massive body was catapulted to the left like a cannonball.

Immediately, the Licker slammed heavily onto the concrete ground, rolling a few times and kicking up a cloud of dust.

From its mouth came a series of incomprehensible roars as it quickly got back up, staring coldly at Tyrant One and Da Pang.

At this moment, the various wounds on the Licker, including the deep gashes left by Tyrant One and the bleeding punch from Da Pang, rapidly healed and returned to normal.

Whoosh!

In an instant, the Licker transformed into a red lightning bolt, dashing towards Tyrant One and Da Pang.

Swish!

Next moment, the eight snake-like flesh tendrils on the Licker’s back shot out, the suckers on their tips clamping onto Tyrant One, pulling it forward.

Tyrant One staggered but barely steadied itself and swung its claws, severing the two flesh tendrils biting onto it.

The Licker let out a painful howl; its mouth opened wide, and a sharp long tongue shot out, targeting Tyrant One’s face.

Poof!

In the nick of time, Da Pang quickly stretched out its right arm, massive like a door panel, blocking in front of Tyrant One. The sharp tongue pierced through the black scales, embedding into Da Pang’s flesh.

Just as the Licker was about to retract, it was horrified to find its tongue caught on Da Pang’s arm.

Da Pang tightened its arm, pulling hard. The Licker, grounded on all fours, was forcefully dragged over, unable to break free despite its struggles.

At this time, Tyrant One finally severed all eight flesh tendrils gnawing on it. Looking at the Licker being dragged over, it launched an attack.

Facing Tyrant One’s sharp claws, the somewhat flustered Licker hastily raised its arm to block.

Rip!

Unexpectedly, its right arm was cut off.

The severed arm flew away, and with one less arm, the Licker lost its balance, being forcibly dragged on the ground by Da Pang, appearing extremely pathetic.

However, the Licker’s self-healing ability was incredibly strong. In a matter of moments, its severed flesh tendrils and arm began to sprout new flesh, rapidly regenerating.

"This evolved zombie’s self-healing ability is so strong!

If it weren’t for the defensive prowess of your dad’s evolved zombies, it wouldn’t have been defeated so quickly."

Zhao Lin remarked in surprise from the third-floor window.

The attack power of this evolved zombie was evident. It even managed to pierce through the arm of that large fellow.

Faced with some fourth-tier zombies with weaker bodies, its tongue would have skewered them right through.

Seeing the Licker being restrained, Lu Chuan led Zhao Lin down the building, approaching the battlefield, spiritual power surging towards the Bloodthirsty Monster.

He intended to attempt controlling this Bloodthirsty Monster.

However, upon contact, Lu Chuan encountered great resistance. The Bloodthirsty Monster was unwilling to be controlled, even becoming furious, its eyes turning blood-red, more violent.

Roar!

With an angry roar, the Bloodthirsty Monster wanted to attack Lu Chuan.

Ji Ruxue secretly used Time Control, causing the Licker to pause, followed by Tyrant One striking it down to the ground.

At this moment, Lu Chuan finally overcame the resistance of the Bloodthirsty Monster in front of him, successfully taking control and turning it into his Corpse Puppet.
