Wrong answer

"Zombie King…"

"He's a freaking Zombie King!"

All four of them realized it at the same time.

And not just any Zombie King—his aura was overwhelming, suffocating. This guy wasn't low-tier. Not even close.

The woman stood frozen, her face blank with shock.

Her earlier words echoed in her mind—she'd called a Zombie King soft-hearted.

Now she understood. That kind of "kindness"? She couldn't even begin to handle it.

Behind them, the grotesque tree shuddered.

Sensing the threat, it let out a piercing shriek from deep within its trunk. The ground trembled violently, and suddenly, every tree in the area seemed to come alive.

Trunks twisted, branches writhed, and once again, a storm of limbs surged toward Ethan.

Looking up, the sky vanished behind a wall of dark green. The canopy closed in like a collapsing dome, blotting out the light.

But Ethan's eyes stayed calm, reflecting the endless dark green chaos around him.
