As the thugs charged forward with roars, Qin Shilei waved his hand, unleashing his pet tank.
He then leaped lightly onto the tank's back.
"Moo!"
The tank roared, then lifted its two thick front legs high before slamming them down heavily.
Boom!
As if a magnitude-seven earthquake had struck, a powerful wave emanated outwards, knocking down all the thugs within thirty meters.
These thugs, with a peak cultivation of only the Black Iron realm, could not withstand the tank's Earth Stomp.
In a single blow, over seventy percent of the thugs perished.
Qin Shilei waved his hand again, releasing two more Silver realm Shadow Leopards.
As soon as the two Shadow Leopards appeared, they transformed into streaks of light, swiftly reaping the lives of the surrounding thugs.
Suddenly, the thugs who had been swarming forward halted abruptly, freezing in place, afraid to take another step.
Qin Shilei stood atop the six to seven-meter-tall Mammoth, like a celestial being, his gaze sharp as he surveyed the rioting thugs.
"Clang!"
Suddenly, someone, unable to bear Qin Shilei's stern gaze, couldn't help but drop their weapon and fall to their knees, legs buckling.
They shouted loudly, "Boss, spare my life! I'll never dare again."
Some of these individuals were merely blindly following the mob in committing evil deeds, and had only summoned the courage to draw their blades against Qin Shilei moments ago.
Now, intimidated by Qin Shilei's repeated kills and his three powerful pets, their courage evaporated, their spirits shattered, and their will to resist utterly broken. They could only drop their weapons and beg for Qin Shilei's mercy.
With one person taking the lead, countless more thugs threw down their weapons and knelt on the ground, begging for their lives.
Qin Shilei scanned his surroundings and noticed that more than half of them had not knelt.
His figure flickered, transforming into a phantom once more, resuming his slaughter.
However, this time his targets were only the thugs still standing on their feet. As for those who had knelt and pleaded for mercy, Qin Shilei spared them all. www.kanshu5.net
With Qin Shilei's frenzied killing, more and more thugs dropped their weapons and prostrated themselves.
There were also those who, deeming themselves clever, secretly hid within the crowd, hoping to evade Qin Shilei's pursuit.
But as soon as they concealed themselves, they were pushed out by the surrounding survivors. Or they were pointed out by others.
Before the thug could react, he was killed by Qin Shilei, who had charged over.
At this point, the thugs could only obediently kneel on the ground, awaiting Qin Shilei's judgment.
Instantly, a vast expanse of people, possibly two to three thousand, knelt on the ground.
Survivors on the surrounding buildings and streets watched this scene in stunned silence.
Who was this divine being, truly a match for a thousand men as described in novels? Single-handedly killing hundreds of people without a scratch, and forcing two to three thousand to submit and kneel.
Qin Shilei looked at the sea of kneeling thugs in front of him, unsure how to deal with them for a moment.
"Thank you for saving my life, boss!" At this moment, Shui Yuexin cautiously approached, expressing her sincere gratitude.
"You're welcome. Do you know why those zombies only surrounded you and didn't kill you?" Qin Shilei asked.
"These zombies didn't not kill us, they killed us in stages." Shui Yuexin explained, "They attack our camp three times a day, taking two to three hundred people each time."
"We are like food being raised by the zombies, slaughtered in batches every day."
"To prevent us from starving, the zombies even bring us some food."
"There's actually such a zombie king?" Qin Shilei was also surprised.
At this moment, he was somewhat eager to witness this peculiar zombie king.
"Mmm," Shui Yuexin continued, "We've been trapped for almost half a month. Today, someone finally couldn't bear this life of waiting for death, and a riot broke out."
She turned to look at the kneeling thugs and cursed in a low voice, "These damned fellows, if they're so capable, why don't they confront the zombies?"
Just then, the zombies outside the camp began to move.
Shui Yuexin's expression changed, and she warned, "These zombies are preparing to enter the camp to capture us."
The survivors in the camp clearly knew what was about to happen. Some retreated into the buildings with fearful expressions.
However, the upper floors were already crowded, and those on the lower floors could not enter.
The kneeling thugs also showed fear, appearing ready to get up and flee at any moment.
Qin Shilei's eyes sharpened as he swept over the thugs, commanding, "Get up immediately and block those zombies."
Although he could summon his elephant herd to attack the zombies.
However, there were over a hundred thousand zombies surrounding the residential area at this moment. If Qin Shilei were to intervene, it might trigger a massive zombie attack, and the entire camp would inevitably be submerged by zombies.
Most of the survivors in the camp would also be killed by the zombies.
Qin Shilei could only temporarily order the thugs to hold back the zombies, while he began clearing out zombies from another direction.
The thugs kneeling on the ground looked at each other. Finally, under pressure from Qin Shilei, they stood up and walked towards the entrance of the residential area.
Facing the zombies might not mean death, but disobeying that god of death would likely result in immediate execution.
"Serves you right. You probably never imagined that one day you'd be ordered to face those zombies."
Shui Yuexin watched the thugs move sluggishly towards the entrance of the residential area and mocked in a low voice.
Seeing Qin Shilei look at her with some confusion, she explained, "They rely on their strength and always force weaker survivors to go to their deaths when the zombies attack."
"The zombies don't discriminate; as long as they capture enough people, they retreat on their own."
"So that's how it is."
Qin Shilei saw that the thugs had already engaged in a chaotic battle with the zombies invading the area. He turned to Shui Yuexin and instructed, "Go and summon the leaders of the various factions within the residential area. I have something to tell them."
"Okay." Shui Yuexin turned and ran towards the buildings.
Soon, more than ten men and women arrived.
Qin Shilei asked sternly, "Do you want to live or die? Do you want to escape the zombies' 'domestication'?"
The group exchanged glances, but no one was willing to be the first to answer Qin Shilei.
"Boss, we all want to live," Shui Yuexin finally said.
Then, under Qin Shilei's gaze, they all spoke, "We want to live. Boss, please tell us directly if you have any solutions."
Qin Shilei, too lazy to waste more words, directly instructed, "I am Qin Shilei. I will go kill the zombie king first, and then clear out the zombies outside."
"Once I kill the zombie king, the remaining zombies may very well attack the camp."
"At that time, to survive, I hope you will lead your people to defend the camp. You can also have those thugs guard the front lines, but do not send the weaker survivors to be cannon fodder."
"I will let my pets, that giant eagle and the two Silver realm Shadow Leopards, help you deal with the powerful mutated zombies nearby."
