Virus King - Chapter 135

Chapter 135: The Moving Wall? The Lord’s Position!

TL: YYang

Countless zombie corpses were piled beneath the city wall, while the slaughter outside the walls continued relentlessly.

The endless tide of zombies seemed never to tire or grow weary, surging madly toward the wall with ceaseless intensity.

The heap of corpses accumulating before this towering wall also drew everyone’s curiosity.

[Why are the people in the stronghold piling zombie corpses in front of the wall? What’s the purpose of that?!]

[Probably to make it harder for the zombies to get close to the wall once the defenders can’t hold them off anymore.]

[Using a wall of zombie corpses as a defensive line? The White Emperor is indeed remarkable, far beyond our comprehension!]

[Hey, you can flatter all you want, but the White Emperor isn’t going to reward you for it!]

[But seriously, if that’s the case, isn’t this pile of corpses way too big? It’s going to be difficult to get rid of all that. Are they just planning to keep stalling and killing zombies indefinitely?]

Some questioned the purpose, while others found the strategy of the corpse wall somewhat bewildering.

However, just as everyone was wondering about the usefulness of the zombie corpses dumped beneath the city wall, something unexpected happened in the livestream. The massive wall… began to move!

[Holy crap! Did you guys see that? I think the wall moved. Is it an earthquake or something?!]

[No way! Jiangcheng isn’t in an earthquake-prone area. It really seems like the wall itself is moving!]

[Stop kidding around! Sure, the apocalypse is full of bizarre things, but… wait, holy crap?!]

The barrage of comments abruptly stopped as everyone widened their eyes in disbelief at the scene unfolding before them.

The apocalypse had already shattered many people’s worldviews. Even now, most of those watching were struggling to piece together their broken perceptions of reality.

And yet, what was happening now dealt another devastating blow to their understanding of the world.

Before their very eyes, the seemingly immovable giant wall began to crack at its base.

Cracks spread across the surface of the wall, widening until they formed an enormous, blood-red maw.

This colossal wall suddenly transformed into a monstrous abyssal beast.

It stretched and twisted like a massive, writhing worm, and that gaping maw swallowed the zombie corpses whole, merging them into its own flesh.

[Holy crap?! What the hell is this thing?]

[The wall is alive?!]

[Look! After devouring the corpses, the wall is getting bigger, thicker, and longer!]

[No way… Is the entire wall around the stronghold made like this? How many zombies did they have to kill for it?!]

[Those zombies were humans too! The leader of this stronghold—this White something—is a devil! A butcher!]

[Oh, please! Even the Leshan Giant Buddha would stand up and offer you a seat after hearing that nonsense. Get bitten by a zombie, then come back and talk about humanity!]

[Does anyone know what kind of item this wall is? It’s beyond ridiculous!]

The livestream chat exploded with activity!

For a stronghold, building city walls was undoubtedly the most critical task.

While flying beasts might one day emerge to bypass such defenses, for now, the walls served to keep the zombies out. As long as the walls held, the stronghold remained secure.

The “Flesh Mountain Wall” was invaluable. In the previous timeline, every stronghold had regarded it as a priceless treasure.

Unfortunately, the Flesh Mountain Wall, though capable of splitting into sections, couldn’t spread its separated parts too far apart. Otherwise, it would die.

If it weren’t for this limitation, selling even a portion of the Flesh Mountain Wall would have made Chen Bai a fortune.

The fighting outside continued without pause!

Beyond the walls, countless Evolvers, including Chen Bai, fought from dawn till nightfall.

Human endurance had its limits. During the battle, many Evolvers were injured. Those with minor wounds took some zombie virus serum and returned to the fray.

Those with more severe injuries retreated into the city to recuperate.

Exhausted combatants followed the same pattern: they quickly consumed food, entered a state of rest and sleep, and then returned to the battlefield after recovering.

After all, not everyone was like Chen Bai, who possessed such exceptional constitution. Additionally, Zombie Claws provided him with the vampiric ability to absorb energy, enabling him to sustain infinite stamina amidst the endless slaughter.

However, the rotating Evolvers participating in the battle outside the city walls only numbered slightly over a thousand. Yet, these defenders formed an unyielding “wall of life,” halting the endless zombie horde in its tracks.

“With a blade in hand, one stands against ten thousand; with armor on the body, one fights a thousand!”

It wasn’t just Chen Bai leading the charge.

From the city wall, everyone could see clearly: after this battle, after this overwhelming corpse tide, all the survivors among the Evolvers would emerge as the elite of the elite!

In this apocalypse, they would become warriors forged in fire and steel!

In the future, these Evolvers would form the backbone of this stronghold, the pillars of the future White Emperor City!

However, Chen Bai, who had fought for nearly a full day and night, now gazed at the endless sea of zombies stretching into the distance. As the darkness began to fade and the dawn of a new day broke, the sight of the inexhaustible undead tide left even him feeling a tinge of helplessness.

This was the reality of a corpse tide. And, as Chen Bai had anticipated, this tide was under the control of a hidden lord!

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for such an enormous horde to continuously flood into this small road along East Mountain Highway.

A full day and night of slaughter hadn’t tired Chen Bai. Yet, this relentless killing was enough to erode anyone else’s willpower.

Only Chen Bai remained calm and indifferent throughout. In his previous life, during the time he was trapped alone in the strange secret realm dungeon where he obtained the Time Hourglass, he had endured far longer and harsher trials before finally escaping.

His unwavering mindset was Chen Bai’s greatest strength!

As the sky brightened with the dawn of the second day, a message Chen Bai had been eagerly awaiting finally arrived!

[Meng Meng: Brother Chen, I’ve found the location of the lord you mentioned!]

In an instant, Chen Bai’s eyes flashed with sharp brilliance.

After such a long wait, he could finally drag the rat hiding behind the scenes into the light!

The Leshan Giant Buddha is a massive stone statue which is sitting down. Just search it up.
