Apocalypse: I rescued the big boss with millions of supplies

The Zombie King died in the ice, his death marking the end of the battle that had lasted four days and three nights.

As night deepened, moonlight spilled onto the dilapidated city, illuminating a desolate yet tragic scene.

The surrounding zombies seemed to sense the passing of the zombie king. They stopped their frenzied roars and attacks, staring blankly at their leader, their former rage gone, replaced by endless confusion and panic.

Fu Muyu walked towards the Zombie King, the ice blade he gripped tightly reflecting a cold light, indicating his next move—to dig out the Zombie King's crystal core.

However, just as Fu Muyu was about to dig out the crystal core from the zombie king, an unexpected figure shattered the momentary tranquility like lightning.

Its speed was so fast that Fu Muyu couldn't even catch it with his eyes. It was like a gust of wind that suddenly appeared in the darkness, instantly crossing the boundary between life and death.

The man moved with ghostly speed, arriving at the zombie king's side a step ahead of Fu Muyu. Without hesitation, he precisely dug out the powerful crystal core from the zombie king's empty eye sockets. The whole process was as smooth as the most exciting movement in a death symphony.

"Who?!" Long Yangyang's eyes, as bright as stars, were fixed on the front. The large swath of vibrant and lively rose vines surrounding the entire base responded to her will instantly, striking out swiftly like a nimble python, trying to tightly entangle and capture the thief who dared to steal the crystal core.

However, the thief was clearly not an easy opponent. His figure was like a phantom in the night, breaking free from the deadly restraints of the rose vines in an instant, leaving behind a series of astonishing afterimages.

He moved swiftly and skillfully, as if he had already anticipated the trajectory of the rose vine's attack, easily avoiding this sudden crisis. He then sped away under the moonlight and disappeared into the night.

Driven by Long Yangyang's precise and powerful control, the alluring rose vines still swung wildly in the air, unwilling to be outdone. Unfortunately, they ultimately failed to reach their target, leaving only a series of sharp whistling sounds echoing in the air, as if accusing the thief of cunning and shrewdness.

At this moment, a barely perceptible look of astonishment and frustration flashed across Long Yangyang's face.

She clenched her fists, her gaze resolute as she looked in the direction the thief had disappeared, her fighting spirit burning fiercely, determined to bring this audacious thief to justice and retrieve the stolen crystal core.

"Your Majesty! The crystal core has been obtained."

This declaration, like a thunderclap at dawn, echoed across the silent battlefield after the death of the zombie king. It was as if the horn of victory had pierced through the barriers of life and death, instantly tearing apart the oppressive atmosphere and grim atmosphere of the battlefield.

Long Yangyang and the others looked in the direction of the sound and saw a burly figure standing amidst the mess. His body was bathed in the faint light of the cold moon, and he held an object that looked like a dazzling star in his hands. His solemn and devout posture was like that of a pilgrim offering a treasure.

The small figure receiving the crystal core was even more eye-catching; despite his short stature, he exuded a proud majesty that seemed to surpass all living beings.

He gazed silently at the crystal core extracted from the zombie king's body, its surface shimmering with a mysterious light, as if it contained boundless power and wisdom.

"Well done." He held the zombie core in his hand and nodded in satisfaction.

Under the bright moonlight, Long Yangyang gazed at the familiar face that came into view. It was a face that still retained its youthful features. Although the moonlight outlined it as somewhat pale and cold, it could not conceal its inner characteristics.

This caused a sudden uproar in her heart. The figure was none other than the little zombie king she had encountered in the ancient summer palace in the once bustling center of Qingdu!

"It's you!"

She uttered a low shout, her tone a mixture of shock, confusion, and an indescribable emotion. Those two words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples that echoed between the two of them in the tranquil night air.

The little zombie king who once led a group of zombies in playing house with his unique chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) temperament in the Summer Palace has unexpectedly reappeared in everyone's sight at this crucial moment.

His unique presence, like the most eerie star in the night sky, shattered the original tranquility and order.

"How did you end up here?!" Long Yangyang was stunned, her eyes flashing with vigilance as she stared intently at the extraordinary being before her—the Little Zombie King Xie An.

Her voice held a hint of surprise and wariness, as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing. (Appears in Chapter 131)

"I can go wherever I want." Xie An raised his head slightly, his cold gaze like that of a monarch looking down on all living beings, his tone arrogant and unquestionable.

Long Yangyang's gaze was drawn to the crystal core tightly held in Xie An's hand. The crystal core, which emitted a faint glow, was the same one that they had painstakingly killed—the crystal core of the zombie king. Her eyes instantly sharpened, and she expressed her dissatisfaction word by word: "That's our stuff."

Xie An merely smiled coldly, toying with the crystal core in his hand, a mocking smile playing on his lips, his words revealing an arrogant and domineering nature: "Hmph, this was painstakingly presented to me by my guards."

Since it's in my possession, this crystal core rightfully belongs to me, and no one can take it from me.

As soon as she finished speaking, Long Yangyang's cold, star-like gaze shot straight at the seemingly ordinary yet mysterious figure beside Xie An, like a sharp arrow.

She could clearly sense a suffocatingly powerful aura emanating from its body; the fact that it was another level nine zombie made her realize...

Her heart tightened. This level of zombie was not only incredibly strong, but also cunning and unpredictable, far surpassing that of ordinary low-level zombies.

Moreover, the fact that he was able to snatch the crystal core from Fu Muyu clearly shows that his special ability is also very unique.

They had just been attacked by a horde of zombies, and were all exhausted, both physically and mentally, with their superpowers completely depleted. Their current condition was simply insufficient to fight off the second zombie king.

Moreover, although Xie An was just a child, he was also a zombie king, and a zombie king whose intelligence was even greater than that of the dead zombie king.

"Prince Xie An, did you come here just to steal the crystal core?" Long Yangyang asked.

“Of course not,” Xie An said, toying with the Zombie King’s crystal core in his hand. The power fluctuations contained within the crystal core subtly released ripples of energy that made people’s hearts flutter as he gently turned his fingers.

The next second, Xie An suddenly looked up to the sky and let out a heart-shaking roar: "Roar!" The roar was like a thunderclap, instantly piercing through the noise of the battlefield and soaring into the sky, causing the heavens and earth to change color.

The level nine zombies, who were originally scattered across this ruined battlefield fighting on their own, seemed to receive an irresistible call after hearing this roar. They responded rapidly from all corners, their eyes flashing with an eerie red light, and gathered towards Xie An's direction at an astonishing speed, like crows returning to their nests.

Their steps, though stiff, were unusually swift, carrying a resolute obedience that transcended life and death. The whole scene was both eerie and shocking, revealing an indescribable atmosphere of oppression.

"I'm here to gather underlings."

After saying that, to the astonishment of Long Yangyang and the others, the zombies who were still alive followed Xie An away.
