Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 371 New Tricks

Chapter 51 Disappearance

"Boss, there are still no zombies. Do you think you scared them last time? That guy knows he can't kill us with just a zombie horde, so he's simply ignoring us?"

On the speeding truck, Gray Bear kept an eye on his surroundings while shouting to Li Chenzhou. They were almost at the edge of the city, and still hadn't found any movement, which made Gray Bear very depressed.

Although it would save them a lot of trouble if the zombies didn't appear, they were still out there. Gray Bear thought it would be better to lure them out so they could have a chance to wipe out the horde completely, instead of constantly worrying about them.

That way, the city would truly belong to them, and they wouldn't have to be so vigilant on the road!

"I'm not sure!"

Li Chenzhou shouted back, because he didn't know what was controlling the zombie horde, so he couldn't guess their actions.

At least, Li Chenzhou wasn't as naive as Gray Bear, thinking that his previous massacre had scared the zombies and kept them from showing their faces.

Li Chenzhou felt that the city was definitely not that simple, and probably had a powerful creature hiding in it. Otherwise, how could there be a zombie horde made up entirely of enhanced zombies? He had never heard of a reinforced zombie tide of this size in his previous life.

Tens of thousands of enhanced zombies—even in the last ten years of his previous life, no zombie horde had ever possessed such a powerful lineup.

Moreover, the fact that the space passage in the center of Qi City led directly here proved that the city was not simple. After all, it was the destination of the space passage.

So, the calmer it was now, the more cautious Li Chenzhou became. He suspected that the creature in this city might be brewing some kind of big move!

He had thought about whether to take advantage of the creature's preparation and leave, but he eventually gave up. Although it was far from his country, they were still on the same planet, and he would eventually encounter this creature anyway, so he might as well see it first!

"Li! I checked! The town is fine, just as we left it, nothing has changed!"

Just as Li Chenzhou was thinking about how to solve the zombie hiding problem, Mike drove over and shouted.

Li Chenzhou had told Mike earlier to enter the town before the convoy arrived. If there was anything unusual, he could prepare in advance.

And now it seemed that nothing had happened in the town, which relieved Li Chenzhou...

If the problem was only in the city, it would be easier to deal with. At least they could temporarily get rid of the trouble by leaving the city!

Hearing that there were no problems, the two trucks drove directly into the town. The people in the carriages were quite familiar with this town!

Tony jumped out of the car, looking at the town still filled with a bloody smell, in disbelief. He didn't expect that they had actually crossed the entire city and come to Henry Town.

Although this town wasn't even as big as their warship, there was at least a large area of land and a water source. As long as they could have it, they could cultivate and ensure their lives could continue!

"Listen up, everyone! It should be safe here for now. You stay here. I will continue to go back and bring people over. Those who arrive first, clean up here immediately. Drag all the zombie corpses out and burn them, clean up the garbage. Also, James will decide on housing after I pick him up!"

Li Chenzhou stood on the carriage and shouted to the people below. Gray Bear quickly translated, and the survivors below had no objection after hearing his words.

They all knew that they were able to come here entirely because of these two Orientals. Besides, they were also asking them to clean up their future home.

They had heard what Li Chenzhou said earlier—these two Orientals were going back. So no matter how they built this place, it would still belong to them in the end. Therefore, even if Li Chenzhou didn't say it, they would do their best to build it.

"Tony, Mike, you two are going back with us. I want to go back to the base first, and then you go down and tell James about the situation here. After that, we'll discuss together whether to transfer the people from the warship first, or the people from the sewer!"

Seeing that everyone had automatically dispersed to work, Li Chenzhou called Mike and Tony over and said to them.

These two were survivors here, and James would definitely believe them more. Especially when they returned to the base, James might have already found people from other bases. So it was better for their own people to explain the situation here.

Mike and Tony weren't stupid, of course they understood what Li Chenzhou meant. Mike didn't care, he was going to follow Li Chenzhou no matter what.

As for Tony, he originally wanted to stay and lead these people to clean up their new home, but he thought that if he didn't go back, the people on the warship might overthink, so he readily agreed.

Then, Tony called a few people, carefully explained everything to them, and then left with Li Chenzhou and the others.

This time, they didn't take the trucks back into the city. The four of them rode in the SUV. Fortunately, the car was quite spacious, and it was more than enough to seat four people without feeling crowded at all.

"I don't understand, why did all the zombies suddenly disappear? Before, when we planned to enter the city, we could see a lot of zombies on almost every street!"

Tony muttered, sitting in the car and silently watching the outside.

"Hmph! They were scared by Li's power, so they all became shrinking turtles! Hahahaha!"

Mike said with a loud laugh.

"No! Mike! Zombies can't be scared, have you ever seen a zombie that fears?"

Li Chenzhou replied faintly.

"Didn't you say that maybe it's not the zombies who are controlling them? Maybe we scared the guy behind the zombie horde!"

Mike was stunned, then said.

"Since it's not the zombies controlling the zombie horde, why would he care about the life and death of the zombies?"

Li Chenzhou looked at Mike and smiled, then looked out the car window:

"If he cared, he wouldn't have waited until nearly ten thousand zombies were killed before withdrawing the horde! I think he just realized that the zombie tide couldn't do anything to me, and didn't want to waste his zombie tide in vain, so he chose to retreat."

"So, he won't let the zombie tide come out to deal with you again, right?"

Mike asked.

"Probably not for the time being! But... he must have other means, we may see it soon!"

Li Chenzhou was still looking at the city outside, and answered faintly...
