CHAPTER 1839: CHAPTER 1832: IS MY BOSS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR SU SIGUI?

Ah Fu wore a cold sneer, as if everything was under his control. Indeed, unless facing a terrifying existence beyond Level 8, anything at Level 8 or below once caught by him had no chance of escaping!

He wasn’t sure if the other side understood what he meant, but this Level 8 zombie seemed to have already felt the immense strength coming from Ah Fu’s hand!

This was a kind of absolute power!

It was the difference between Mt. Tai and Qingsong, filling one with utter despair at a glance!

No matter how it struggled, in Ah Fu’s hand, it was like a lump of dough without any consciousness, kneaded at will!

Roar! Howl!

It kept roaring, warning Ah Fu with brain waves, while continuously shifting its stance to try to break free from Ah Fu’s grip. But no matter how it changed, the place Ah Fu held was inescapable!

A sense of powerlessness filled it.

But this guy was a zombie! It’s hard to imagine how ruthless they could be to themselves, unable to feel pain yet possessing intelligence and consciousness!

Seeing it couldn’t escape from Ah Fu’s hand, its body suddenly trembled twice, and in the next second, it elongated itself, twisting around Ah Fu like a venomous snake, then opened its massive maw!

With one bite, it severed the part of its body held by Ah Fu, then its body retracted, launching like a missile into the sky, speeding southeastwards, fleeing the scene.

Ah Fu was a bit dumbfounded, but soon reacted, striding to chase after it. Yet speed was his undeniable weakness. After a few steps, he saw the distance between him and the opponent growing further and further, and could only give up.

Yet to let that guy escape just like that filled his heart with a hundred unwillingnesses, he immediately shouted at Huang Quanjiu’s direction: "Hurry up and chase! You must kill it for me! Damn it, in my life, I hate runaway dogs the most!"

Ah Fu’s face was full of indignation. During the early days of the Royal Court’s establishment, due to his overly massive size, many opposing forces became very familiar and knowledgeable about him.

His power was strong; he could counterkill even when besieged by three Level 8 powerhouses, spreading his fierce reputation in the Royal Court’s region. But his weakness was also very obvious: slow speed!

This was the part he had to forgo while having absolute power.

As time passed, even the powerful individuals who opposed the early phase of the Royal Court knew about Ah Fu’s inability to effectively pursue enemies.

In a head-on fight, once caught by Ah Fu, injury or death would practically be inevitable! Those who survived would surely lose a dozen layers of skin, half their lives!

So all these opposing powerhouses would choose to flee upon encountering Ah Fu, avoiding the sharp edge of his attacks, while Ah Fu couldn’t catch them, leading him to gradually start hating those who ran away when they couldn’t win.

Eventually, his hatred deepened!

Chasing and chasing, ending up with nothing, gave him an extremely bad battle experience, without any pleasure!

What he loved most was when others engaged in a head-on, no holds barred, hearty battle with him!

So now, seeing that guy escape, his heart filled with anger and hatred, roaring with overwhelming fury!

He should have anticipated that those in the same level as him would escape his grip this way. But the time was too short for him to realize it quickly, plus after the Royal Court stabilized in the north, his opponents were generally humans, not zombies!

When dealing with those Level 8 zombies, it didn’t even require his action; Song Muyuan or Xu Haishui could easily handle those unruly Level 8 zombies.

He was used to opponents begging for mercy or kneeling when fighting humans, attempting to retreat whole.

"Don’t let that thing escape! Chase!"

Just as the Level 8 zombie broke free from Ah Fu’s grasp, Huang Quanjiu and they immediately pursued, six or seven figures leaping skyward with "whoosh whoosh," leaving a trail of afterimages as they sped towards the fleeing zombie!

Ah Fu rubbed his head, realizing he was the only one left now; chasing wasn’t his forte, so he could helplessly linger like an idle zombie.

Not long after, Jiang Zhenbo led his men over from afar, quickly asking upon seeing Ah Fu: "Brother Hu, how’s it going?"

"Nothing, found a big one, didn’t notice and let that guy escape, others are catching it now."

"I see..." Jiang Zhenbo looked around, oblivious to where the guy Ah Fu mentioned had escaped, but the area was in a mess, clearly showing signs of a previous battle.

"So what do we do next?"

"What else can we do? Just sit tight and wait for them to return. If you’re impatient, I can clean up the rest alone, but I’m not responsible for any damage caused."

"Then let’s wait for them here..." Jiang Zhenbo quickly shook his head, not joking with entities at Level 8; sparing a bit of damage was better.

"By the way, Brother Hu, when your people catch that zombie, make sure not to kill it."

"Capture alive?" Ah Fu, who hadn’t yet sat down to rest, paused hearing this.

"Yes..." Jiang Zhenbo nodded with apprehension, having forgotten to explain the mission’s purpose earlier, only now recalling as he began to stammer.

This was no small matter!

"I can’t guarantee that. I’ll inform them, but capturing a Level 8 zombie alive is tough, much harder than just killing one. The Evolution Crystal is ours though." Ah Fu shook his head.

Jiang Zhenbo sighed with slight helplessness, saying, "Well... do your best. The mayor wants to know why the zombies attacked the lab, how they knew the exact location of SR-14 Laboratory... Killing them means no clues left...

"Oh, you want to interrogate, but how will you get the zombies to cooperate?"

"Uh... I don’t know." Jiang Zhenbo shook his head, finding it strange himself. Logically, even if they captured a high-level zombie alive, it wouldn’t cooperate with humans.

"Maybe it’s up to you guys..."

"Up to us?" Ah Fu frowned, but it made sense. Interrogating zombies should naturally be left to the Royal Court!

However, he was dissatisfied; having them capture zombies for Su Sigui, then help her with the interrogation — having them handle everything. Might as well give the Cloud Gorge Base to the Royal Court!

Hence, Ah Fu asked Jiang Zhenbo: "What’s Su Sigui up to now? Just waiting for us to finish everything, then handing it to her on a silver platter for her to take home?" His expression turned grim, like a fierce beast revealing its menacing nature, scaring Jiang Zhenbo into trembles.

Yet after Ah Fu finished, he muttered in confusion, "What’s the boss thinking? Could he actually have a thing for Su Sigui?"

"What?" Although Ah Fu was muttering, his gruff voice was clear enough for Jiang Zhenbo standing by him to hear. His expression first turned blank, then he leapt up suddenly! "Your boss... Li Henian likes... the mayor?"

Facing Jiang Zhenbo’s incredulous look, Ah Fu replied in a disgruntled manner: "Why the face? Do you think my boss isn’t a match for Su Sigui?"
