Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

1350 Defection

Led by several guards, Xiao Yun entered the hall.

Xiao Yun’s gaze swept across the empty hall and then looked at the empty throne. He couldn’t help but frown and ask, “Where’s His Majesty?”

The guards on both sides of the hall had stern expressions. One of the Empire’s messengers took two steps forward, facing Xiao Yun, and said in a deep voice, “His Majesty has an order, please listen to it, Xiao Yun!”

Xiao Yun coldly looked at the messenger.

The messenger suddenly quivered and said, “His Majesty has ordered that Great General Xiao Yun should immediately return the nation’s holy weapon to the inner hall. After that, guard the inner hall until the rebel army arrives. There must be no mistakes!”

Xiao Yun’s heart sank.

At this moment, no matter how stupid he was, he realized that something was wrong.

His expression became even colder as he said in a deep voice, “Where’s His Majesty? Ask him to come out and see me!”

The guards still had serious expressions on their faces as they looked at Xiao Yun, but no one answered.

“I’ll say it one last time!” Xiao Yun could no longer contain the anger in his heart and shouted angrily, “Where’s Tang Wu? Tell him to come out and see me!”

Seeing this, the guards on both sides drew their weapons and surrounded Xiao Yun. They looked at him warily, “Xiao Yun! Calling His Majesty by his name, are you trying to betray your country?!”

Xiao Yun’s eyes were cold, and he didn’t say a word. He slowly drew his long sword.

“All of you can leave. I will speak to Commander Xiao alone.”

Seeing that both sides were about to start fighting, a voice came from behind. Ding Shixiu slowly walked out from behind the curtain beside the throne.

Xiao Yun looked at Ding Shixiu.

After not seeing him for a day, Ding Shixiu seemed to have aged by decades.

“Where is His Majesty?”

Ding Shixiu shook his head and replied, “There’s no need to look for him. His Majesty has already left the royal family and the city.”

“Gone? Heh, coward!”

Xiao Yun’s pupils contracted as the anger in his heart intensified.

He had sacrificed his comrades to buy time for the Empire, but now? What did Tang Wu do?

What else could he do besides escape?

Where was the ambush?

“I’ve already lured Tang Mingyue and the others into the main city. They’ll be here soon. Ambush? Where’s the ambush he told me about?”

Ding Shixiu glanced at Xiao Yun, his face expressionless. He nodded and said, “Follow me.”

Xiao Yun frowned and followed Ding Shixiu into the backyard behind the hall.

Seeing the scene in the backyard, Xiao Yun was startled.

In the middle of the backyard, a Holy Light barrier appeared.

Inside the barrier, a thick black plague aura filled the entire area.

A black plague aura rose from the center of the ruins in the distance.

What the hell!

The inner seal of the sealed abyss had been broken! When did this happen?

Shocked, Xiao Yun turned to look at Ding Shixiu.

Ding Shixiu’s face was still indifferent.

“You guys actually…”

Xiao Yun immediately came to his senses and turned back to look at the Holy Light barrier in front of him, his fists tightly clenched.

Just relying on the external layer of the Holy Light barrier would not be able to withstand the plague aura for a long time.

The golden barrier was already showing signs of cracking, and it kept emitting cracking sounds.

Xiao Yun finally understood!

He had underestimated Tang Wu’s cold-bloodedness.

Including him, everyone in the army was someone Tang Wu could use! They had become abandoned pawns in Tang Wu’s hands!

“Xiao Yun, as you can see, the seal in the center of the royal family has been broken by Tang Wu’s order. The outer layer of the Holy Light seal can’t stop the plague aura for too long. While there is still time, take your people and leave. Before you leave, place the country’s holy weapon in the Ancestral Dragon Temple.”

Ding Shixiu looked at the light screen in front of him and said in a deep voice, “There’s still time.”

Xiao Yun clenched his fists tightly, the anger that he had been suppressing all this time could no longer be suppressed. He sneered, “Heh, Tang Wu, he really has a good plan.”

Ding Shixiu already had a premonition that Xiao Yun would give such an answer. He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart and continued, “I’ve already brought His Majesty’s orders. The Holy Light barrier has already begun to shatter. You still have some time. Take care of yourself.”

“Idiot! Are you still willing to follow such a person?!”

Seeing that Ding Shixiu did not answer, Xiao Yun gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, “Such trash is not worthy of my loyalty!”

After saying that, Xiao Yun turned around and strode out of the back hall.

…

Outside the inner city walls of the Imperial City, the fleeing soldiers finally had some time to catch their breath. Many soldiers simply sat on the ground and rested.

All of a sudden, a loud explosion sounded.

The royal guards and the Empire’s army soldiers all stood up and looked in the direction of the city gate.

Xiao Yun’s face was ashen as he hurriedly walked out of the city gates.

“Listen up, guards! Everyone else, listen up! Tang Wu had already destroyed the abyss seal in the center of the city! There’s a large amount of plague aura now, and it will erupt soon!”

...

What?

This news made everyone’s expression change.

Gernot and Ovian, the president of the Alchemy Society, looked at Xiao Yun in surprise, wanting to confirm if what he said was true.

But why? Why did Tang Wu do this?

Xiao Yun immediately explained everything, “Tang Wu used us as bait to lure Tang Mingyue into the city. He wanted to annihilate us and Tang Mingyue in the outbreak of the plague aura!”

Xiao Yun couldn’t suppress the anger in his eyes, “Tang Wu abandoned us a long time ago. A person like him doesn’t deserve to be the emperor of the Empire. If you’re willing, come with me. If you’re unwilling, go your separate ways. We’ll part ways here!”

The Empire’s soldiers in the troop were still at a loss when they heard the news.

What was going on? Were they abandoned by Empire’s royal family just like that?

What followed was all sorts of sadness, resentment, and finally, incomparable anger.

They had gone through many obstacles along the way and sacrificed their lives for the Empire, but in the end, they were abandoned?

Gernot was so angry that his lips were trembling.

...

“A scum like Tang Wu is not worthy of our loyalty. Let’s kill our way out together!”

“Let’s go!”

Xiao Yun waved his hand and immediately led the furious soldiers to charge out.

The situation in the city was too chaotic. Seeing that Xiao Yun had led the army to retreat, the president of the Alchemy Society, Ovian, and the others immediately followed.

Xiao Yun had just led his army towards the exit of the outer city when he coincidentally met a team of over 20 players.

The two sides collided face to face.

Before Xiao Yun could say anything, the face of the team leader changed drastically. Without saying anything, she made a hand gesture and the players scattered in all directions as if they had seen a ghost.

The players who participated in this battle all knew how powerful Xiao Yun and the others were, so they didn’t dare to die in vain. They quickly scattered and fled while sending out warning signals.
