Chapter 617: Chapter 307: Armored Undead, Destiny Beckons!_2

But he didn’t know that he had ingested an improved version of the Weed of Life and Death.

He didn’t die, but became a living dead, starting to tear at others. Just after he had bitten off a maid’s face, a noose was thrown around his neck.

Attached to the other end of the noose was a wooden pole more than three meters in length and thick as a wrist.

With that tool, his trusted one’s movements were restricted, and the next second, someone rushed over and chopped off his head.

These armored soldiers were An Jinxi’s private troops, professionally trained to know how to kill living dead most efficiently.

"Don’t waste the bodies, drag them to feed those ’things’!"

Ordered the commanding officer.

Quickly, they headed for Zhao Guozhang’s residence within the palace.

"What’s happening? Why is there screaming?"

Quan Sangin frowned, hearing the commotion and stepping out to investigate, only to see a squad of armored soldiers killing people.

"Zhao Guozhang has rebelled and has been executed by Lord An Jinxi. Submit at once or face death without mercy!"

The commander, left hand carrying Zhao Guozhang’s head, sprinted all the way as a means of intimidation.

"Xiba!"

Quan Sangin cursed aloud. Had An Jinxi rebelled? Indeed, only a ruthless person could come up with the idea of using living dead to fend off pirates.

"What’s Zhao Guozhang playing at? How did he get killed on his own turf?"

Kim Myungjin was speechless, "What happened to having high powers and influence?"

"What do we do now?"

Kim Jinsoo looked at Lin Baici, who was more pragmatic. With Zhao Guozhang dead, perhaps it was time to ally with others.

"Kill these people, then go kill the King."

Lin Baici needed to acquire the God’s bones from the King’s body. He knew Zhao Guozhang had kept the King alive for an important reason, so he didn’t make this demand earlier. But now, things were different.

Get the God’s bones first, then wait and see about the rest.

Sigh, his time as the national teacher of Goryeo had not even lasted a day—how absurd.

Violence erupted. Though these armored soldiers were elite, they were no match for Lin Baici and the other God Hunters; only the long-range bows were a significant threat.

But Lin Baici was completely unflustered.

He threw the Bronze Sword with one hand,

There it goes!

The Bronze Sword, glowing with a faint green light, tore through the air and pierced an armored soldier’s chest, going through and then striking the next soldier!

Thump! Thump!

One after another, bodies fell to the ground.

"Quick, report to the Lord. Have the armored guard take action!"

The commander looked at Lin Baici fearfully and shouted urgently.

This person from the Nine States was too powerful!

The secret troops must be mobilized!

...

While Lin Baici fought with these armored soldiers, Prince Li Mingzhe, with the help of the Daeti School, easily opened the palace gates.

"Hurry, we must find my father. As long as we publicize the fact that he’s a living dead, Zhao Guozhang and the Queen Mother will be doomed!"

Li Mingzhe was impatient.

"This filthy game is finally coming to an end!"

Jonny hadn’t expected it to be so easy and was quite surprised, "When I get back, I’m definitely throwing a bikini party!"

"Don’t be too confident. Who knows what the next round will be?"

Hank’s gaze was sharp, sweeping his surroundings like a radar.

...

"This is bad, something’s happened."

Li Taewoo ran back in haste.

Dae Jang Geum was conducting experiments with the maggots and tissue that fell from the King’s body. Seeing Li Taewoo’s panicked expression, she trembled, "What is it?"

"Lord An Jinxi is here, and it doesn’t look good!"

Li Taewoo urged, "We must leave quickly!"

"But my experiment, it’s just starting to show results..."

Dae Jang Geum was conflicted.

"We can’t worry about that now!"

Li Taewoo turned to Zheng Zhonggen, "We have no choice, I think God Lin will understand!"

"Mm, we have to retreat first!"

Zheng Zhonggen agreed.

Quickly packing up, Dae Jang Geum followed Zheng Zhonggen, who led the way out, but before they could pass the palace gate, they ran into An Jinxi coming their way.

"Hide for now!"

Zheng Zhonggen whispered urgently, but it was too late.

"Who goes there?"

An Jinxi roared, his armored soldiers surging forward.

"I’m one of Zhao Guozhang’s men!"

Zheng Zhonggen suspected it was futile, and sure enough, the opposing soldiers charged even faster upon hearing this, making him change his expression, "Fight our way out!"

Though Zheng Zhonggen’s combat prowess wasn’t at Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao’s level, he was still formidable against these ancient soldiers, knocking down five men in just over ten seconds.

An Jinxi’s gaze sharpened, and he waved his hand.

Behind him stood fifty soldiers, all clad in armor, with black hoods covering their heads and their hands bound.

Upon hearing the command, the bodyguards immediately took out daggers, cut the ropes on their hands, and removed the masks.

Fifty slightly decayed zombie-like creatures appeared before everyone’s eyes.

"Xiba."

Zheng Zhonggen was shocked; could this native command the undead?

"Kill them!"

An Jinxi ordered.

The armor-clad undead immediately let out a roar and lunged at Zheng Zhonggen.

This time, Zheng Zhonggen struggled to cope with them, and not knowing what other cards the enemy held, he panicked, abandoning Dae Jang Geum and the others as he fought and fled.

"Let’s go!"

Li Taewoo, seeing Zheng Zhonggen throw them under the bus, cursed and made a snap decision to return to the palace, intending to take the king hostage.

The undead clad in heavy armor had extremely strong defenses, and Zheng Zhonggen’s machete could not breach them, but he was still able to fight his way out.

"Stop chasing, first capture the king!"

An Jinxi rushed into the palace,

Hearing the footsteps getting closer, Li Taewoo panicked, risked it all to capture the king, but he still underestimated the strength of the king after becoming undead.

Thud!

The king headbutted Li Taewoo in the chest, making him spurt out a mouthful of blood, then immediately tried to bite Li Taewoo’s shoulder.

He dodged it, but not entirely; his shoulder got bitten.

Ah!

Li Taewoo yelled, taking the Dagger and fiercely stabbing the king, to no avail.

An Jinxi came in, saw this scene, and started to laugh, full of mockery.

"The struggles of a mere mortal!"

An Jinxi, looking at Dae Jang Geum and A’xin, sneered, ready to order their execution, when some people hurried in.

"An Jinxi, what are you trying to do?" Li Mingzhe roared, "Don’t you kneel upon seeing His Highness?"

Li Mingzhe’s eyes glanced at his father and, sure enough, as expected, he had become one of the undead.

"Hmph, you are nothing but lucky to have been born into royalty. When it comes to talent, you’re less than nothing!"

An Jinxi despised Li Mingzhe, without me, this country would have been long gone.

"To be a king, one doesn’t need talent, one needs luck!"

Li Mingzhe was brimming with confidence, "This is called the mandate of heaven!"

"Is that so? I’ll show you what the mandate of heaven truly means!"

As An Jinxi spoke, he suddenly drew his sword and slashed at the chain binding the king.

Clang!

Sparks flew as the chain broke.

"Devour them!"

An Jinxi commanded.

He had discovered, by chance, that he could command the undead. Not knowing the reason, he saw it as divine favor and his desires swelled endlessly, spawning the notion of regicide and usurpation to become the king of Goryeo.

The king, with his head lowered, gnawed on Li Taewoo like a starving wild dog, completely ignoring An Jinxi’s command.

"Eh?"

An Jinxi frowned.

"Haha!"

Li Mingzhe laughed loudly, "Are you playing the clown?"

Jie Susi had no patience to listen to these people’s nonsense. He needed to purify this rule contamination quickly and then move on to the next station, "Slay them all!"

The Statue of Liberty, full attack.

A blond young man pounced on the king, "This head, I’ll take it..."

Before he could finish, the king slapped him across the face.

Bang!

The blond young man’s head exploded, and his headless body, carried by momentum, stumbled a few steps forward before collapsing to the ground.

Suddenly, the palace fell eerily silent!

An Jinxi’s pupils dilated instantly when the king’s cloudy, bloodshot eyes turned towards him, and he couldn’t help but shudder.

"Fuck, it’s the BOSS!"

Hank shouted, "Go! Go! Go!"

"Don’t let any of them escape!"

Jie Susi yelled, charging at the king.

The melee broke out.

An Jinxi called the armor-clad undead back to protect his retreat.

"What are you doing?"

A’xin tugged at Dae Jang Geum, trying to hide, but Dae Jang Geum broke free from her grip.

"I’m going to save Li Taewoo!"

Dae Jang Geum prepared to give it a try, facing almost certain death.
