Chapter 1039: Negotiations with King Limo!

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

Having experienced Yue Zhong's combat power, there was some movement in the horde, as a number of big-headed zombies with large eyes the size of fists came up to Yue Zhong, speaking in a raspy voice, "I'm Zombie King Limo, despicable human. What do you intend to say to the great King Limo?"

Yue Zhong immediately recognized that this zombie was most likely a puppet used to project King Limo's voice.

"What an arrogant zombie."

Yue Zhong sneered in his heart, but extended a smile towards the zombie, "Great King Limo, I hope to work together with you, and prevent the Beastmen Kingdom from invading us."

He continued, "The Gates of Hell have appeared in France, and there would be even more Beastmen warriors descending upon Europe as time passes. In order to expand their territory, they would definitely attack you. I hope to cooperate with you, and resist the invasion."

King Limo sneered coldly, replying in a raspy voice, "The Beastmen are our enemies, your human race is also our enemy. Since this is the case, how could we possibly cooperate."

As an evolved zombie, King Limo was extremely clear that the zombies and humans were polar opposites, and there could only be one victor between them.

Yue Zhong laughed lightly, and immediately offered Europe, "Of course it's possible. As long as King Limo is willing to work with me, I can transport all human survivors in Europe over to China, while recognizing Europe to be yours, esteemed King Limo!!"

Yue Zhong's faction was based in China, other than the region over there, there was no need to expand to Europe. In fact, he had already deemed Europe to be a lost cost, thus, he had no qualms using it as a bargaining chip.

"Oh!" When King Limo heard that, he could not help but be moved slightly. The Kingdom of God had been an eyesore to him. They had wiped out many of his zombies while resisting him from absorbing even more zombies into his power. If they were to be removed, then he could move freely and bring more zombies under his control.

He then gazed at Yue Zhong coldly, "What do you want then?"

"Europe's equipment and resources, as well as the positions of the remaining humans." Yue Zhong directly stated his intentions, "Europe has technology and resources that your zombie clan does not need, but to us humans, they are important and necessary. As long as you let us take those, we will leave Europe."

King Limo pondered for a while, before nodding, "Ok, that's no problem."

Resources, equipment, and technology were important to humans. To King Limo, however, it was just rubbish. While most of the zombies were already evolving some form of intelligence, they could at most utilize an ordinary rifle, or those machine-guns on vehicles. It would be a stretch to get them to work on the resources and technology.

Since King Limo agreed, Yue Zhong grinned and flipped his hand, revealing a Gauss rifle, "Esteemed King Limo, I wonder if you're willing to engage in a trade with me? I'm willing to sell you Gauss rifles in bulk. Each one just requires a Type 3 Mutant Beast nucleus."

King Limo swept the Gauss Rifle a glance, and asked coldly, "How powerful is this thing"?"

Yue Zhong readied it and fired at the Beastmen warriors below.

With a bright flash of light, there were multiple holes in the numerous Beastmen warriors. In that single shot, over 30 of them had been killed.

King Limo showed a hint of satisfaction, but continued coldly, "It's not too bad, but it isn't worth a Type 3 nucleus."

Yue Zhong frowned slightly and understood. To humans, while these weapons were powerful and could deal with foreign species, useful to even ordinary soldiers, they were useless to the zombies that made use of their own bodies. Unless there was a large supply of them, it would not change much to the battle tactics and combat style of the zombies.

Yue Zhong chuckled, and retrieved a glass vial of a Type 6 Mutant Beast's blood essence, "In that case, how about the blood essence of a Type 6 Mutant Beast?"

"Type 6 Mutant Beast blood essence?" Hearing that, King Limo's eyes widened with greed and haste, quickly replying, "I'm interested! Of course, I'm interested! What do you want in exchange?"

Zombies required swallowing blood essences to evolve. Yin Shuang's evolution path was of a higher level, requiring her to consume Mutant Beast nuclei.

To King Limo, the Type 6 Mutant Beast blood essence was enough to bolster its personal strength.

On Earth, there were currently already some Mutant Beasts that had evolved to the Type 6 realm. However, King Limo had not even killed a Type 5 Mutant Beast before, not to mention a Type 6 one. He was willing to pay any price for the blood essence in front of him.

Yue Zhong chuckled at the look of anxiety, "Esteemed King Limo, if you want this, you need to offer something that can move my heart."

King Limo's eyes flashed with greed, "I can give you 300,000 ordinary nuclei, 20,000 Type 2 nuclei, 3,000 Type 3 nuclei and 20 Type 4 nuclei in exchange for that."

Since he controlled over a dozen million zombies, all the Mutant Beasts within the zombies' territory had been torn apart and consumed. King Limo himself had slaughtered his fair share of them, obtaining many nuclei in the process.

He was not like Yin Shuang that was able to consume nuclei to evolve. They were basically no different from rubble to him. However, he knew the value of it, thus he had collected all that he came across.

"Quite a number!"

Yue Zhong thought to himself, but he shook his head outwardly, "Not enough!"

King Limo gritted his teeth, "Twice the amount!!"

Yue Zhong shook his head still, "Not enough!"

The veins on the ordinary zombie were bulging by now, as King Limo roared out, "Thrice the amount!"

The current amount he had offered was all that King Limo had, and he could not help but feel some heartache. Although he had no use for the nuclei, he could guess that with further evolution, the nuclei might be of use in the future.

Yue Zhong continued indifferently, "Not enough!"

King Limo's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Yue Zhong. If it was not for him being helpless against Yue Zhong, he would have wiped him out, "Yue Zhong! Those are already all I have, what the hell do you want?!"

Currently, King Limo could not deal with Yue Zhong, nor could Yue Zhong do anything to him. Because of this strange equilibrium, both sides could negotiate.

Yue Zhong chuckled, "I need some treasures from you. You have already traversed Europe for a long time, there should be some artifacts with you right? They're useless to you but extremely important to me. If you let me take a look, and as long as there are some that I can utilize, I will hand the blood essence to you."

Ever since the world changed, the various strange artifacts of the past had slowly begun to surface. Yue Zhong had obtained the pearl within an old territory of China. However, it had been consumed by Yin Shuang. He believed that it was the same in Europe. Since King Limo had been in control over wide areas of Europe, it was likely that he had obtained similar artifacts.

King Limo frowned, as he stared warily at Yue Zhong. He seemed to hesitate for a long while, before replying slowly, "Wait, I'll go get them!"

Yue Zhong turned around to watch the struggling Beastmen warriors.

After losing the lead of the Type 6 experts, the rest of the warriors were struggling to survive. There was no way of breaking out of the horde, and while they killed over thousands of zombies every passing moment, there were casualties on their end as well. The horde was getting denser and denser, threatening to consume them.

Inside such an endless horde, even a Type 6 expert would perish. The 200,000 Beastmen were destined to perish.

Seeing this, Yue Zhong sighed, "The combat style of the zombies is truly frightening. Without any large area-of-effect weapons or the advantage of territory, they could be considered truly invincible."

Everything in the universe had their bane. While the Beastmen warriors were strong and had slaughtered the Kingdom of God, in comparison, the Kingdom of God had been able to make use of fortifications and firepower to hold back the zombies.

Of course, if it was not for Taylor being over anxious to occupy Berlin, he would not have suffered so greatly. Had he utilized the 200,000 Beastmen properly, together with their Type 6 experts, with time, it was definitely possible to eliminate all 15 million zombies. On the flip side, the Beastmen warriors were more threatening to the humans.

Soon after, a huge L4 walked out of the horde, carrying a large chest. It poured the contents out on the ground, as treasures spilled out in front of Yue Zhong.
