We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real? - Chapter 129

Chapter 129: Tide of Corpses
During the past three months, Jiang Li had considered many unconventional plans to help Luo Ying quickly defeat the whale zombies. For example, he could learn the art of corpse-driving and controlling the zombies. Then, with a wave of his hand, Luo Ying could summon a million zombies, forming a military formation to annihilate whale zombies, shark zombies, and so on.
Unfortunately, Luo Ying was only a ninth-level Qi cultivator. Even controlling a hundred, let alone a million, would be a huge honor.
He could also learn spatial summoning techniques to summon nine-state monsters. Even a single Fusion-stage monster could solve the problem.
However, Jiang Li quickly dismissed this idea, believing that summoned monsters couldn’t interfere with the world.
What about establishing a nation and making Luo Ying the king, thus enhancing the nation’s fortune?
That wouldn’t work either. National fortune required that at least 90% of the people in the nation be cultivators. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible for national fortune to increase the king’s cultivation.
Finally, Jiang Li came up with a plan: a formation.
After a few days, when Luo Ying also reached the Foundation Establishment stage, the siblings would join forces to set up a series of killing arrays. With proper preparation, a Foundation Establishment cultivator’s array could kill a Nascent Soul cultivator, let alone a fourth-tier zombie that was even weaker than the Nascent Soul.
Forming arrays and poisoning were the most common methods used by the weak to defeat the strong in Jiuzhou.
Jiang Li estimated that this massive array would require at least 100,000 first-tier brain cores and 500 second-tier brain cores. The higher the number of brain cores, the greater the chance of success.
The siblings’ current collection of brain cores was far from enough to reach that number.
Another challenge in setting up the killing arrays was ensuring the whale zombies would remain together. However, Luo Ying stated that in a month, the whale zombies would reappear, attacking human safe zones and causing heavy casualties.
This time, the zombie whales would appear in groups, presenting a perfect opportunity to annihilate them in one fell swoop.
Jiang Li noticed that Brahma Tower had been preoccupied lately and asked, “What’s wrong? Do you want to go back to Jiuzhou?”
Brahma Tower shook its body. “No, I want to go back and see my fellow Buddhists.”
Jiang Li was moved. “Can you convert those sixth-order zombies and bring them here?”
Brahma Tower rejected the idea. “Conversion is easy. Just use your voice. But there are no sixth-order zombies nearby. Otherwise, ten years after Luo Ying’s apocalypse, it wouldn’t have been a chance for humans to fight zombies. Sixth-order zombies would have destroyed this planet long ago.” “
And I can’t use the power of space to send sixth-order zombies here.”
A good idea failed, and Jiang Li shook his head regretfully. “Since you want to see, then go.”
“Thank you, Jiang Renhuang.” Brahma Tower thanked Jiang Li for his trust.
Jiang Renhuang… Renhuang… Renhuang…
Jiang Li seemed to remember something. He glanced at Luo Ying, who was practicing the Acala Dharma, and said a few words to Brahma Tower. Brahma Tower swung through space, heading to a planet thousands of light years away.
“Two days before the zombie tide,” Jiang Li muttered to himself.
The heaviest zombie concentrations are during zombie tidal waves
. Jiang Li planned to use a small number of brain cores to set up small killing arrays along the zombie tidal paths, annihilating the tidal wave in one fell swoop and collecting a large number of brain cores. According to Luo Ying, a zombie tidal wave would appear in two days, passing through Qiyu City and conquering Fulin District, shocking the world.
This unprecedented zombie tidal wave caught all the safe zones off guard. They had assumed that as long as the whale zombies stayed away, humans could always defeat the zombies.
Who could have imagined such a thing? The walls of the safe zones could only stop individual zombies, not the ladders they constructed with their bodies!
However, in this life, Luo Ying had already warned all safe zones of the zombie tidal wave, urging them to take extra precautions when constructing their zones.
Humans do have a solution to zombie tidal waves. Their thermal weapons are ineffective against level 4 zombies, but they are significantly effective against ordinary zombies and tidal waves of level 1 and 2 zombies.
As for those who disbelieved and thought he was exaggerating, Luo Ying was helpless.
There was no hope. Just wait for death.
The killing array couldn’t be set up near the Fulin District. Otherwise, if the main array was activated, even if the zombies were eliminated, a vast number of brain cores would remain. Even if Luo Ying killed them, there was no guarantee that Fulin District enhancers would swarm in to grab the brain cores.
Luo Ying said with certainty, “There’s no guarantee. Such a thing will definitely happen.” He knew these people’s minds too well. Expecting them to abide by moral principles was simply a fantasy.
Therefore, Jiang Li chose to set up a small killing array in Qiyu City.
…
“Mr. Jiang, is it okay to put it here?”
“Move a step to the left, bend down, and place the brain core.”
“This brain core won’t work. It has too much energy and will disrupt the coordination of the formation. Use the one at the bottom of your backpack.”
“Don’t put it on the ground. Go upstairs and put it on the roof.”
“Put it in the Kun position. What do you mean by Kun position? Take three steps back and bury it one centimeter in the soil.”
“Why put a second-level brain core? Second-level brain cores are so precious.”
“What? If not a second-level brain core, what will serve as the center of the formation? Of course, you’ll be the center.”
Jiang Li instructed Luo Ying and Luo Zhu, and after a long day of hard work, they finally set up a decent killing formation.
“Done!”
…
“Brother Rat, is Qi Yu City really safe?” One young man felt a chill upon entering Qi Yu City, recalling the terrifying legends here. Second-level zombies… if they encountered one, their entire team would be doomed.
“Of course it’s safe. Qiyu City had seven Level 2 zombies, all wiped out by the two bosses, Luo Ying and Luo Zhu. I saw it with my own eyes. Now, only Level 1 zombies remain in Qiyu City!” the rat-bearded man said confidently.
“But, but didn’t you say in the tavern that the two bosses only killed two Level 2 zombies?” The younger brother was stunned. Seven Level 2 zombies were wiped out. Their reputation was well-deserved.
“Of course I lied to them. Qiyu City has so many good things. If those guys knew there were no Level 2 zombies in Qiyu City, they would flock here!”
The rat-bearded man also regretted it. Fake liquor can be harmful. He was drunk at the time and wanted to brag about meeting the two bosses, but when he recounted the process, he couldn’t help but mention that they killed Level 2 zombies.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and told a lie about the crucial number. Otherwise, there would be more than just the two of them here today.
“Brother Rat, there are good things. Look, food, a lot of food, not expired, how many contribution points can be exchanged for this!”
“And here, a solar charger.”
“We are so lucky, we didn’t encounter a single zombie.”
The younger brother said with a smile, patting his backpack. This trip was really a great harvest, worth it.
“Yeah, we are so lucky…” Brother Rat said casually, but he felt something was wrong halfway through his words. He was also overwhelmed by joy and didn’t notice the problem.
This is an occupied area, how could there be no zombies!
Even if the two big guys were quick in their actions, they only killed first-level zombies. I have never heard of them killing ordinary zombies!
He heard a noise coming from the distance, looked over, his face pale.
There were mountains of corpses and seas of corpses.
