"Unmanned drones are in position, tracking the location of No. 4000, and live footage is being transmitted..."

In the forward base, many people were hunched over their computers, busy at work. Li Mu suddenly left Melbourne for Canberra, which made everyone somewhat worried. After all, Canberra was not far from Sydney, implying that Li Mu's target might very well be them.

It might sound ridiculous, but the forward base, which integrated the remaining military forces of all of Australia, was actually worried about the threat of a single zombie.

But if that zombie was a King, the king of all zombies, it would be reasonable. Especially when the footage from the drone was transmitted, the crowd gathered in front of the screens in the base all trembled in silence.

"Damn, what is this? A war? A war of the zombies?!"

General Soros, who usually kept his emotions in check, couldn't help but change his expression and exclaim in shock.

No one answered him. Dr. Manhattan, who had extorted many secret documents from Luo Shui, had his mood plummet to the bottom when he saw the footage, his face turning ashen. He barked, "Immediately input the data model; I want to know the specifics."

"Yes. Calculating."

Someone quickly responded, sweating profusely, suppressing the shock and fear in his heart, "From the data in the footage, the number of zombies exceeds fifty thousand, but it seems they are divided into two sides and are fighting each other..."

"Damn, what is that!"

Someone screamed, standing up, unable to believe what they saw. In the footage, buildings rose from the ground, with the force of a mountain, suppressing the battlefield.

"Immediately lock the image. Zoom in!"

Dr. Manhattan immediately rushed to the computer, "Is that a zombie?! An X-type zombie, damn, how can it control so many buildings?!"

No one answered, as no one knew how to respond to this almost myth-like bizarre reality.

"The data analysis is out. This is a war of the zombies, one side led by No. 4000, and the other side is likely controlled by another King."

Someone called out.

Dr. Manhattan ignored him; such a simple matter, he could discern. He tapped his fingers and coldly asked, "Have you found the other King?"

"The drone is searching, found it. Here!"

The person operating the drone immediately called out.

The image was zoomed in, and everyone saw the ugly, small King standing on the shoulder of a six-meter-tall giant zombie. If not for the large head, it would be hard to distinguish.

"Truly a disgusting creature."

Dr. Manhattan sneered, turned around, and asked, "How much longer until the jammer is ready?!"

"It's already being accelerated. Estimated to be completed in three hours and forty-seven minutes."

"Speed it up. Within three hours, I want to see our army move out, planes, artillery, tanks, even warships, to immediately launch a covering fire attack on Canberra."

"Whether it's No. 4000 or the other King, we can't let either of them off!"

Dr. Manhattan finished speaking and looked at General Soros.

General Soros's face was cold, and he nodded, not minding Dr. Manhattan's overstepping. Having witnessed this war of the zombies, General Soros already knew that the King must die!

...

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the sky above Canberra, buildings floated up, like mountains, rising instantly. Under the control of the X-type zombie, they descended like mountains, suppressing Li Mu.

The buildings crashed down with a force like the collapse of a mountain, though not real mountains, the impact was no less devastating. Tons of concrete blocks rolled down, a catastrophic disaster that instantly submerged an entire street. A corner of the city was directly destroyed under such a terrifying attack, and the tens of thousands of zombies fighting together were instantly annihilated, blood and flesh flying, smoke and blood forming rivers.

The high-pitched screech of the red mutant parrot could not be drowned out by the thunderous crash of the falling buildings, "We're going to die, we're going to die! King, we're going to die! That bastard is so powerful!"

Li Mu's face was expressionless, his silver eyes flickering. Everything before him slowed down. He leaped like lightning, moving through the falling buildings, the wind from his rapid movement making the red mutant parrot scream and cough.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The buildings almost grazed Li Mu's body as they crashed down. Without turning back, Li Mu knew that his undead army, under such an attack, could only be reduced to a mass of flesh.

His eyes grew even colder and more ferocious. Li Mu's feet moved rapidly, his body like lightning, weaving through the falling buildings. Even under the overwhelming attack, he could find gaps to pass through, his eyes icy, firmly locking onto the X-type zombie.

Even though the King did not have the same physical enhancements as Li Mu, controlling the X-type zombie was enough to pose a deadly threat to Li Mu.

Noticing Li Mu's gaze, the X-type zombie instinctively took a few steps back, flying away. The black bone spines on Li Mu's back suddenly lashed out, picking up a several-ton block of concrete. With a burst of strength, the concrete block whistled through the air, feinting to the side, and aimed at the King hiding at the back.

The King immediately screamed, and the giant zombie guarding it roared, swinging its fist with brute force, shattering the concrete block.

Li Mu's feet didn't stop, quickly moving through the streets. The black bone spines behind him whistled, turning vehicles, rocks, even lampposts and fire hydrants into his weapons, whistling like cannonballs towards the King.

In this war, both Li Mu and the King deeply realized that only they were each other's true and only opponent.

Either kill the King, or kill Li Mu, otherwise the war would not end.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Continuous whistling sounds, the buildings that crashed to the ground instantly shattered, and the steel bars under the control of the X-type zombie rose like snakes, aiming to strangle Li Mu from behind.

"King, be careful behind you!"

The red mutant parrot screeched.

Li Mu didn't turn his head, the black bone spines on his back suddenly wrapped around a building. Li Mu flipped in the air, facing the whistling steel bars head-on. His bone knife whistled, cutting through the steel bars without hesitation.

The X-type zombie cackled, and the steel bars in the air instantly twisted like noodles, each bar as flexible as a rope, dodging Li Mu's bone knife and instantly wrapping around his hands, binding him tightly like the mythical binding ropes.

Li Mu was caught off guard by the sudden change, losing his support, and was tightly bound by the steel bars, crashing to the ground.

The King immediately screamed in excitement, urging the six-meter-tall giant zombie to charge towards Li Mu, eager to taste his flesh.

Li Mu's face remained expressionless, the black bone spines behind him whistled, cutting through the steel bars binding him. With a flick of the bone spines, he rose parallel to the ground, his right hand bone knife slashing towards the giant zombie.

The King instantly screamed, not expecting Li Mu to break free so quickly. It screamed and roared, and the six-meter-tall giant zombie roared, grabbing the King and throwing it into the air. The giant zombie, swaying its massive body like a tank, charged towards Li Mu.

The X-type zombie immediately flew over, catching the King and quickly retreating.
