Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 586 Duan Xue's Coincidence
They were the creators of the zombies, the masters of the zombies. Why could humans now control the zombies, and why couldn't they regain control? This was simply impossible!
The Devourers naturally didn't know that those controlling the zombies weren't humans, but zombies. Li Yunshan and the others had transformed into zombie forms after being forced by Leopard.
However, Li Yunshan and his comrades were, after all, soldiers, so they adapted well to the battlefield. They all hid within the horde of corpses, not directly participating in the battle.
Because they themselves were in zombie form, the Devourers couldn't find them among the tens of thousands of zombies. They all assumed that humans were controlling them from behind.
Subsequently, something even more shocking happened to the Devourers – Xiaoya!
Regarding the horde of corpses, the Devourers could perhaps explain it away by claiming that they were merely ordinary enhanced zombies and that they had been controlled by humans for too long, preventing them from regaining control.
But Xiaoya's appearance left the Devourers with no excuses to deny the power of humans.
The giant zombies were created by them, and these giant zombies were their latest research. Yet, a human child was directly controlling these very giant zombies.
Moreover, it wasn't just one or two controlled giant zombies, but hundreds!!!
The Devourers were well aware that giant zombies were not easy to control. Even if you had mental control skills, you couldn't control giant zombies, because they weren't individual entities, but were pieced together from the corpses of countless people.
Yet, such giant zombies were controlled by a human child, and they couldn't regain control!
This made the Devourers feel that this world might not be as simple as they had imagined, and that signs of things spiraling out of control had already appeared at the beginning of the apocalypse!
This was unacceptable to the Devourers. Several Devourer leaders were approaching each other, planning to discuss what to do next: whether to immediately report to headquarters and request that this world be opened up ahead of schedule, or to call for reinforcements and eliminate the unexpected factors in this world.
At that moment, Duan Xue's Death Howl roared!
Of course, the first shot wasn't aimed at them, so it didn't attract the attention of the Devourer leaders. They didn't even notice that Lin Qiang's RV was attacked, and even a windshield was shattered!
In fact, even if they had seen it, they wouldn't have cared, because Lin Qiang was human. The Devourers didn't care about his life or death. In fact, the Devourers had already decided that after destroying the manor, they would eliminate Lin Qiang as well.
If this guy lived, their cooperation with food might be revealed, which would be a shameful thing for them. Of course, they wouldn't keep Lin Qiang around.
Both sides of the cooperation had already planned to kill their partners after achieving their goals. This could be considered a meeting of minds...
Just as the Devourer leaders were preparing to discuss how to deal with the situation, Duan Xue's Death Howl roared again, this time targeting them!
Duan Xue didn't actually know which of the Devourers were the leaders, but her Death Howl happened to aim at one of the Devourer leaders!
Subsequently, her second shot, third shot, and the bullets that followed all hit the Devourer leaders who were about to gather together.
The Devourers were dumbfounded. In the Devourer race, the hierarchy was quite strict, somewhat like bees or ants. The orders of high-level Devourers could not be refused by low-level Devourers.
And Duan Xue unintentionally chose the Devourer leaders. Moreover, because they wanted to discuss how to face the current situation, they all gathered together. Thus, with the constant roar of the Death Howl, the seven Devourer leaders all died at Duan Xue's hands!
The other Devourers naturally saw this scene, but the problem was that they had already received orders from these seven Devourer leaders. According to their habits, they would definitely continue to execute these orders until new orders arrived!
But now, the Devourer leaders had been wiped out by Duan Xue. Before other Devourers arrived, no one could give them new orders.
Therefore, the remaining Devourers could only continue to execute the previous order, which was to cooperate with humans to capture the manor!
In fact, if Duan Xue had shot other Devourers, these Devourer leaders would definitely have noticed something was wrong, because all those who died were Devourers. In addition, since their purpose of cooperating with Lin Qiang had been achieved, they would likely eliminate Lin Qiang and his child soldiers first, and then concentrate on dealing with the manor.
But now, all the Devourer leaders were dead, and the remaining Devourers had no new orders, so they could only cooperate with Lin Qiang to capture the manor. This, on the contrary, strengthened the stability of the alliance between Lin Qiang and the Devourers!
Duan Lei himself couldn't have imagined that he originally wanted to split the alliance between the Devourers and Lin Qiang, but due to Duan Xue's unintentional sniping, the alliance between Lin Qiang and the Devourers became even stronger. It could even be said that as long as Lin Qiang didn't go back on his word and no new Devourers arrived, their alliance would be unbreakable!!!
Duan Xue didn't realize that the ones she had killed were all Devourer leaders. She was still using Death Howl to create constant carnage!
Duan Lei had also been paying attention to the situation of the men in black. He also saw that the men in black were divided into two groups, one of which was clearly wary of the other!
This also matched Duan Lei's speculation that among these men in black were humans and Devourers, and that there wouldn't be much trust in the cooperation between the two!
However, after Duan Xue began sniping the men in black, Duan Lei discovered that Duan Xue's sniping didn't seem to have any impact on the men in black?
This was a bit strange! Duan Xue was sniping all Devourers, so the Devourers had no reason not to suspect humans, but Duan Lei carefully observed and found that after Duan Xue killed some Devourers, the relationship between the men in black didn't change!
These guys were still wary of the other side, while the other side seemed completely unaware!
Moreover, Duan Lei also saw that the ones who were wary were humans, and the ones who were indifferent were Devourers!
"Could it be... that Devourers can also have true trust in humans?"
Duan Lei murmured in disbelief...
