Zombie King Babysits the Reborn Empress - Chapter 445 - 456: Kobold Commander

Chapter 445: Chapter 456: Kobold Commander
The convoy sped along the smooth road at an astonishing pace, and soon they approached the Li River urban area.
Lu Chuan and Ji Ruxue, seated in the rear of the first truck, frowned as they heard the roars and growls emanating from the city center.
These kobolds are truly ruthless, persistent in their hunt, determined to eradicate the city’s evolved zombies and mutated fierce beasts.
However, neither Lu Chuan nor Ji Ruxue had any fear of these kobolds, whose strength capped at fourth-tier; the convoy drove straight into the city.
Soon, the convoy encountered kobolds hunting on a street.
Over thirty kobolds, exuding an aura of menace, each brandished battle axes, surrounding a group of second and third-tier evolved zombies, launching a massacre.
It was like peeling an onion; under the cold gleam of the battle axes, one after another, the fighting evolved zombies were chopped in half, flesh and blood flew, pitifully.
The initially sizable group of zombies began to shrink.
Rumble~
Unexpectedly, a rumbling sound caught the kobolds’ attention, as they felt the vibrations from the ground, turning their fierce icy gazes towards the convoy.
At the sight of the convoy, a hint of astonishment flashed in the kobolds’ eyes.
“Roar~”
The next moment, sensing a significant threat, the kobolds abandoned the almost entirely slaughtered evolved zombies in the encirclement, fixing their fierce eyes on the convoy and let out a series of roars.
Evidently, these beings from the Otherworld had never seen a drivable vehicle, mistaking it for a formidable creature.
Bang bang bang~
At that moment, the convoy had already stopped, and under Lu Chuan’s command, Corpse Puppets leaped off the vehicles one by one, quickly moving to the front of the convoy.
“Roar~”
Facing the Corpse Puppets blocking their path, the kobolds bared their teeth and expressed bloodthirsty aggression, grasping their battle axes tightly, eager to attack.
Observing these unknowing beasts, Lu Chuan disembarked, sneered coldly.
The next instant, fifth-tier Corpse Puppets dashed forward from the group.
Rumble~
The entire street shook, as fifth-tier Corpse Puppets began ruthlessly emanating their fifth-tier aura, charging at the kobolds.
Sensing the aura from the fifth-tier Corpse Puppets, the kobolds, initially fierce, began to panic.
Fortunately, the leading fourth-tier kobold howled, waving his battle axe, calming the frightened kobolds.
Under his leadership, the kobolds regained their viciousness, advancing towards the Corpse Puppets.
Rumble~
In an instant, the battle erupted, blood splattering, thunderous sounds echoing.
The leading kobold’s gaze was sinister; his axe glowed, slashing toward Tyrant One ahead.
Boom~
Tyrant One remained unmoved, swinging his thick arm swiftly, forming a residual image as his sharp black claw blade tore towards the kobold’s chest.
The kobold’s axe, though powerful, was ineffective against Tyrant One’s heavy black armor.
The sharp axe blade only left a white mark on Tyrant One’s chest, emitting a loud bang.
Conversely, the fourth-tier kobold was utterly powerless against Tyrant One’s strike, his thick furry chest torn open, blood splashing.
“Roar~”
The fourth-tier kobold let out a mournful scream; under Tyrant One’s giant strength, his entire body flew off, slamming into the ground.
Yet, the kobold’s regenerative ability was formidable; after a few cries, he quickly rose from the ground.
On his chest, three wounds exposing rib bones began healing; fleshy tendrils grew rapidly, entwining together, stopping the bleeding.
Boom!
At that moment, Da Pang also charged, his iron fist as large as a millstone, pounding the fourth-tier kobold, sending him flying again.
As time passed, the battle continued; although the kobolds outnumbered, working in tandem,
against the formidable fifth-tier Corpse Puppets, combat turned into a one-sided crush; kobolds suffered heavy losses, over half now lifeless.
Only a few third and fourth-tier kobolds still barely alive under the Corpse Puppets’ assault but in an extremely precarious situation!
Looking at the corpses of his kin, the fourth-tier kobold, beaten all over by Da Pang, almost dying, was enraged, his eyes bloodshot, as if filled with blood.
“Roar——!”
In his dying moment, the fourth-tier kobold let out a piercing howl, resonating all around instantly.
Boom~
Subsequently, the fourth-tier kobold’s sturdy dog head cracked under Da Pang’s iron fist, brain matter and blood splattering.
“Dad, he is calling for reinforcements; it looks like there are quite a few kobolds in this city; indeed, there’s a space-time rift nearby!”
Knowing the alien races well, Ji Ruxue hurriedly explained to Lu Chuan beside her after hearing the howl.
Lu Chuan nodded, silent.
Soon, after the fifth-tier Corpse Puppets finished off the remaining kobolds, a series of chaotic footsteps resounded from the end of the road.
They saw a fifth-tier kobold, ten feet tall with silver-white fur, holding a giant battle axe emitting a metallic glow, approaching Lu Chuan and the others, exuding a vicious aura.
Behind him followed a hundred kobolds, half of them third or fourth-tier.
“Indeed, they’ve called for help!”
Gazing at the approaching fifth-tier kobold, Lu Chuan remained calm.
If a sixth-tier kobold appears, he might pay more attention.
But now, a mere fifth-tier kobold posed no threat to him; he had yet to deploy the sixth-tier Corpse Puppets.
“Dad, this is a Dog-headed Man Commander, be cautious; he’s activated a racial talent similar to an Evolver’s talent ability.”
Seeing the silver-haired kobold, Ji Ruxue frowned slightly, reminding her dad.
The half-beastman race surviving in another world isn’t simple; any half-beastman activating their racial talent and breaking through to fifth-tier undergoes a significant power boost.
Among kobolds, only those who activated racial talents become Commanders, making them exceedingly challenging.
It’s unknown how many racial talents this kobold before them has activated.
