Zombies: Cultivating Immortality at Maoshan, Becoming Stronger by Doing Nothing

Chapter 816

"Great." Ling Yanyan said with a faint smile, "I can give you freedom, but you must obey me and never disobey my orders."

"Okay," the zombie king agreed.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for subduing the Zombie King and gaining 50000 points." The system notification sounded.

"Five thousand points?" Ling Yanyan was secretly excited.

Although there are quite a few zombies in this world, there aren't that many in total.

He has now obtained 5,000 points in one go, which shows that this zombie king is a wealthy man.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for triggering the hidden mission 'Save the Zombie King'."

"Mission Description: Eliminate the Zombie King."

"Task reward: 1000 points."

"Uh!" Ling Yanyan rolled his eyes; he had already guessed there would be a mission.

“However, this guy’s son is in my hands. If I want to kill him, I must first find his body and protect him,” Ling Yanyan whispered.

Then, he glanced at the Zombie King and said, "Since you have chosen to submit, please tell me, why did you zombies become like this?"

"I don't know," the Zombie King shook his head and said, "I encountered a drought not long after I was born."

"Drought?" Ling Yanyan frowned slightly.

Drought, as the name suggests, is a flood disaster caused by drought.

At the height of the drought, flash floods raged, submerging farms, houses, villages, and villagers—nothing was spared.

"You don't know?" Ling Yanyan looked at the Zombie King suspiciously and said, "You're not lying to me, are you?"

The Zombie King said urgently, "I really don't know. We zombies have been ostracized by various forces since childhood, and no one has ever explained the methods of cultivation to us."

Upon hearing this, Ling Yanyan fell into deep thought.

The zombie race is an ancient race, and each generation has only one zombie king.

There can only be one Zombie King, so a new Zombie King needs to be born every once in a while.

If the Zombie King dies, the zombie race will face a new calamity.

Therefore, in recent years, the Zombie King has been eagerly seeking a breakthrough.

The Zombie King continued, "Don't worry, once I regain my strength, I'll take you away from this hellish place immediately."

“Okay.” Ling Yanyan nodded.

The Zombie King looked at Ling Yanyan with anticipation and said, "If you can heal my injuries, I will take you away."

“Your injuries are too severe. Even if I had a way to heal you, it would probably take a huge amount of effort,” Ling Yanyan said. “So you’d better think it over carefully before you speak.”

The Zombie King pondered for a moment and said, "Alright, take a look at my injuries first."

Ling Yanyan nodded and took out a silver needle, inserting it into the zombie king's body.

"Pfft!" The zombie king spat out a mouthful of black blood, and his injuries immediately eased considerably.

The Zombie King exclaimed in surprise, "What is this thing? How can it have such miraculous effects?"

“These are called silver needles,” Ling Yanyan said calmly. “As long as the silver needles are inserted into the acupoints, your injuries can be healed.”

The Zombie King exclaimed in surprise, "So powerful?"

“You can give it a try,” Ling Yanyan said with a smile.

The Zombie King nodded, reached out and grabbed the silver needle, then pulled it out forcefully.

"Hey!"

A bloody arm fell directly to the ground.

"Haha! I'm finally free!" The Zombie King roared with ecstasy, his eyes bloodshot.

"Hmph, you worthless piece of trash, you actually think you can live and jump around?"

Just as the zombie king was getting excited, a cold voice rang out.

The Zombie King trembled and turned to look at Ling Yanyan.

A wicked smile crept across Ling Yanyan's lips as he said, "Now, who do you think is more useless?"

The Zombie King's face twitched violently, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Ling Yanyan, you've gone too far."

"Going too far? Heh!" Ling Yanyan sneered and said, "Don't forget, you provoked me first. You only have yourself to blame for being too stupid."

The zombie king clenched his fists so tightly they cracked, as if he wanted nothing more than to rush up and kill Ling Yanyan.

But he didn't dare.

Ling Yanyan glanced at him indifferently, then turned to leave.

"Ling Yanyan, what are you doing?" the Zombie King suddenly shouted in a panic.

Ling Yanyan stopped and turned to look at the Zombie King, saying, "Take me to the Zombie King's son, or I'll make sure you lose your freedom completely."
