Chapter 67: Zombie Crisis

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As the sound from the ground grew louder and louder, the entire Divine Tree Island seemed on the verge of collapse, causing it to shake violently!

Before the rumbling ended, a series of angry roars echoed outside the Divine Tree Island!

Needless to say, it must be the roars of zombies!

In less than two seconds, these zombies charged in!

There were at least 200 of them!

They rushed out from the surroundings of the Divine Tree Island, not giving Enoch any chance to react. The entire space was filled with 200 zombies!

Although they were ordinary zombies, anyone who saw their numbers would have a headache!

In addition to the fact that a Commander was controlling them, their battle prowess naturally exceeded that of ordinary zombies!

Enoch’s pupils contracted upon seeing this.

As expected, the other party had planned to launch an all-out attack, just as Enoch had expected!

He wasn’t in a hurry to attack. Instead, he waited for the zombies to fall and the vines to be forced to stop their movement.

“Since it’s an all-out attack, why haven’t we seen the Diggers and the special zombies!?”

In this brief gap, Enoch immediately observed the attacking zombies.

The first two of these waves were filled with Flame Launchers, Talons, but not these particular kinds of ordinary zombies.

Unlike the previous ordinary zombies, these zombies seemed to possess a wisp of intelligence,, and even their battle prowess was increased!

This was the first time Enoch encountered this situation, which meant another party must be manipulating these zombies!

Although Enoch could not confirm the other party’s identity right now, he made his next decision in this short span of 10 seconds!

“Lightning, bring 10 Berserk Rats into the Netherworld. They already have a mastermind behind them. I don’t know the strength of the other party, so I just need you to confirm their identity!”

“Squeak!” (Good!)

After Lightning’s momentarily hesitation, its eyes suddenly became firm. It knew that wasting one more second was more dangerous for Enoch.

Then it might as well work hard to do something!

Enoch would definitely not lie, so it could not let Enoch down either!

“Squeak squeak!” (Follow me!)

Under Lightning’s command, 10 Berserk Rats quickly jumped onto the Divine Tree teleportation formation before disappearing.

Enoch’s expression changed once again upon seeing that they had disappeared. He had already visualized the way to vanquish this invasion!

The Vine and Stone Fruits temporarily nullified the zombies’ attacks, consequently slowing down their advance.

The remaining Berserk Rats started killing them one by one. They split into 5-rat groups, forming 17 groups in total. The extra Berserk Rats would join the group that needed their assistance.

They would take care of each other to avoid being ambushed by other zombies and then go to the periphery to kill them one by one.

If they were fast, they could kill them all in three to five minutes!

But there was a problem here.

What if they all went out, and another batch of zombies came?

After all, there were only ordinary zombies, and none of the special zombies had appeared yet.

Where were those special zombies?

Enoch’s plans wouldn’t work if this problem couldn’t be solved.

At that moment of absolute crisis, Enoch screamed in his heart, ‘Think! Make your brain think faster!’

He was even a little anxious.

Suddenly, the moment he lowered his head, his brain seemed to have stopped working. His eyes were fixed on the ground.

He recalled that the Digger had appeared silently from the ground.

Enoch had not noticed it at all.

It would be fine if one appeared, but what if it was accompanied by 10, 20, 30, or even more zombies?

Enoch did not dare to think further. After all, the number of ordinary zombies had already reached 200. If it was a special zombie, the ratio would not be too low.

That number would be at least 50 or more!

They would all attack from the ground and catch Enoch off guard!

Upon thinking of this, his fear instantly spread all over his body, and cold sweat flowed down from his forehead. Such a large number was not something he could deal with with his current strength.

Moreover, he did not know where or when the special zombies would appear. If he paid attention to all of them, he would not have so much time!

‘Damn it! Is it over?’

Enoch hit the ground angrily, blaming himself for thinking of this possibility at the most critical moment. He didn’t know how to solve this problem.

If this continued, the level of the crisis he was facing would sky-rocket.

Enoch suddenly noticed that the vibration on the ground was gradually increasing. The vibration in the center was the most intense!

After sensing this strange vibration, Enoch immediately walked away from the center and found that the tremors were not as serious as before.

“I see!” Enoch immediately understood where these special zombies would attack from.

These special zombies had been hiding on the ground for a long time, and they were going to rush out of the center of his territory!

This way, they would be surrounded by the special zombies on the inside and the ordinary zombies on the outside.

No matter how powerful the Divine Tree Master was, he wouldn’t be able to escape!

Unfortunately, they couldn’t succeed now that Enoch knew.

“All Berserk Rats, get ready. If any special zombie comes out, kill them! Don’t give them any chance to climb up!”

“Squeak squeak!”

After receiving the order, the Berserk Rats immediately perked up and ran to the outermost periphery of the central point, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Enoch immediately stood up and looked at the zombies that were slowly advancing on the periphery, then looked at the Bomb Fruits in his hand and made the next decision.

“Since that’s the case, I can’t let you surround me.”

Enoch threw four Bomb Fruits in four different directions as soon as he finished speaking!

Boom!

As the Bomb Fruits exploded, the zombies were blasted into a bloody mess in four different directions. The entire space was instantly filled with a green rain of blood.

There was a foul smell, and all kinds of charred corpse parts were flying in the air.

There were four newly-formed bottomless black pits on the ground now. Just as per the Bomb Fruit’s description, no plants could be planted there anymore. Enoch could only wait for the plants to slowly recover.

The zombie wave lost more than 100 zombies because of the Bomb Fruits!

Some of them were injured to different degrees because of the blast. They either lacked arms or legs.

However, they would continue to carry out their Commander’s orders as long as they could move!
