Zombie King Babysits the Reborn Empress

When Lu Chuan and Ji Ruxue returned to Li River Base City and their cultivation experienced respective breakthroughs, Zhao Lin, who had left earlier, finally returned to Chaoyang Base City.

Gazing at the distant outline of the Base City, Zhao Lin, who appeared somewhat disheveled, felt a surge of joy in her heart and couldn’t help but quicken her pace.

The journey was not without its challenges, as the emergence of numerous alien species caused her to encounter them repeatedly along the way, resulting in multiple clashes.

In order to return quickly, Zhao Lin had to break through the alien species’ blockades several times.

“Phew, finally back. The amount of alien species I encountered on this journey was overwhelming. If I hadn’t avoided prolonged fights, I might not have made it.”

Recalling her experiences, Zhao Lin felt a lingering fear, wondering why there was such a surge in the number of alien species.

She encountered alien species five times along the way, including several seventh-tier aliens and even one eighth-tier alien species.

Zhao Lin could still fight and kill a few of the seventh-tier aliens using her own abilities, but when facing the eighth-tier species, she was outmatched.

If she hadn’t realized the danger and fled promptly, she would have been killed by that powerful eighth-tier Lizardman.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As time passed and she got closer to the Base City, Zhao Lin began to sense something was amiss.

From the direction of the Base City ahead, the sound of dense gunfire faintly reached her ears, mixed occasionally with roars and curses.

“What’s going on? Could it be…”

Zhao Lin first furrowed her brow and then suddenly thought of a possibility, causing her face to change dramatically.

This scene looked so much like an alien siege!

The Base City is under threat!

This guess exploded like thunder inside Zhao Lin’s mind.

“No, I must hurry back; I can’t let the aliens breach the Base City!”

Whoosh!

Anxious at heart, Zhao Lin pushed her speed to the limit, frantically rushing towards the direction of the Base City.

With Zhao Lin disregarding her Spiritual Essence consumption in order to travel quickly, it took only a few minutes for her to reach a thousand meters away from Chaoyang Base City.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In front of her, an extraordinarily brutal battle was unfolding; the sound of gunfire was deafening, and the screeches were thunderous.

A large number of blood-colored insect species were assaulting the high wall defenses of the Base City, flying like streams of satin, fearlessly towards the walls, trying to break through and invade the Base City.

These blood-colored insect species looked about the size of basketballs, with deep crimson bodies resembling beetles!

They were covered in spikes and had huge, sharp mandibles, their wings on the back vibrating at high frequencies, allowing the blood-colored insects to perform agile maneuvers in the air.

There was quite a number of these blood-colored insect species, densely packed and covering the sky, the noise they produced was also enormous.

Faced with the fearless aggression of the blood-colored insect species, Chaoyang Base City was also completely unyielding, unleashing their stockpile of weaponry and ammunition as if they were free, directing them tirelessly towards the blood-colored insects.

Under the relentless attacks from the Base City, a massive number of blood-colored insect species were dispatched.

Of course, this kind of heedless firepower output wasn’t without consequence, and at a minimum, the ammunition reserves within the Base City were fast depleting.

In light of this, Base City was of course not oblivious, but the Base City’s leader also understood that if the Base City were breached by the insect species, no matter how much ammunition in stock would be useless, so better to use it all at once.

If they managed to hold off the insect species’ attack due to this, Base City could request reinforcements from the Imperial Capital even if facing ammunition shortages.

If ultimately they couldn’t stop the alien assault, then at least fiercely firing ammunition could inflict heavy damage on the insect species before them as an ultimate sacrifice.

Within the Base City.

Through video feeds, watching the relentless and fearless assault of the insect species on the high walls, the Base City’s leader’s face darkened.

Although the Base City had developed quite well, it was still struggling to combat these insect species!

Within the conference room, each higher-up was equally anxious, with a grim expression.

The vast number of insect species, seemingly endless, had already encircled the Base City completely.

If anyone dared to escape, they would surely be pursued by these insect species, devoured down to bone.

This also meant that, for senior officials, there was no escape; retreat equaled death. Their only hope now was for the warriors on the high walls to successfully repel the insect species’ attack.

“Oh, if only Lord War God was here, I wonder when he will return…” At this point, a high-ranking official remembered the ever-protective Lord War God.

If Lord War God were present, even in the face of insect species invasion, the safety of the Base City would be somewhat assured, at least mitigating the risk of being breached.

Upon hearing this, the Base City leader also slightly furrowed his brow.

Sigh, Lord War God has gone missing since he left, and his whereabouts remain unknown…

“Kill!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

At the same time, outside the high walls, the brutal slaughter showed no signs of cessation.

Faced with the lengthy, fearless assault from the insect species, the Base City’s defenses finally buckled, with numerous Evolvers and military warriors perishing under the insect species’ attack, causing the entire defense to teeter on the brink of collapse.

Boom!

Just then, a dazzling blue blade flash swept in from afar, slicing right through the swarm of insects.

In an instant, the dense swarm was torn apart like thin cloth.

A massive number of blood-colored insects perished under the strike, turning into blood mist cascading down.

“You damn beasts, die!”

The next moment, Zhao Lin, her face filled with anger, flew onto the battlefield, wielding her battle sword once more against the swarm.

Instantly, a series of dozen blade energies shot out, scattering the swarm into pieces, with countless blood-colored insects being impossible to tally.

Those blood-colored insects that tried to advance to devour Zhao Lin were shattered by a blade energy over dozens of meters long before even getting close.

After a short time, the swarm, which had been so rampant, was now sparse under Zhao Lin’s battle sword, with their attacking power substantially weakened.

And at this moment, the surviving Evolvers and military warriors on the high walls recognized the person rushing to their aid, none other than their honored War God.

“It’s Lord War God! Lord War God has returned!”

“Haha, Lord War God is back, we have nothing to fear anymore!”

“Lord War God, finally returned…”

The crowd was overjoyed, cheering incessantly atop the high walls.

At this moment, Zhao Lin swung a few more blows, clearing out the remaining blood-colored insects, then waved towards the high walls to reassure everyone.

Then, just as she was preparing to fly towards the high walls, Zhao Lin’s face suddenly changed as she turned her gaze to the sky in the left direction.
