The Last Demon God

Researching Antidotes

After a brief pause, Zhuge Jin continued, “The most challenging aspect is not the strength of the Blood Curse Demon itself, but the fact that it carries a kind of corpse poison that can assimilate all living beings.”

“Any living being bitten or scratched by it will be infected with its corpse poison in a short time.”

“And once infected with its corpse poison, the living being will lose consciousness and become a half-dead zombie; a combat tool controlled by it.”

“Next, let me introduce the categories of zombies to everyone.”

Zhuge Jin took out another scroll and began to introduce the categories of zombies to the crowd.

According to Zhuge Jin’s introduction, the zombies infected by the Blood Curse Demon are divided into four major types.

The first type is called Corpse Slaves. They are formed from ordinary people being infected, not only withered and weak, but also move stiffly and slowly, with only slightly stronger strength than ordinary people.

The second type is called Corpse Monsters. They are formed from Refining Body Realm human warriors being infected, not only possessing strong physique and enormous strength, but also moving without any stiffness, and their strength is stronger than human warriors of the same level.

The third type is called Corpse Beasts. They are larger than Corpse Monsters and have a large number of bone spurs on their backs.

Corpse Beasts are formed from Condensing Yuan Realm human warriors being infected. Not only do they have a stronger physique and strength than Corpse Monsters, but they can also use qi and martial techniques from their previous life, and their strength is stronger than human warriors of the same level.

The fourth type is called Corpse Demons. They are covered with bone spurs all over their bodies, and also have a pair of black wings and a tail like a war spear, allowing them to fly freely in the air.

Corpse Demons are formed from True Martial Realm human warriors being infected. They can not only use qi and martial techniques from their previous life, but also evolve new abilities. Even our top-ranking members will find it difficult to defeat them.

After introducing the types of zombies, Zhuge Jin reminded everyone, “It is worth noting that no matter which level of zombie, they can all spread the corpse poison again. Being bitten or scratched by them will still infect you with the corpse poison.”

After Zhuge Jin finished speaking, the whole scene fell into silence.

It’s no wonder that this disaster has caused the main city of Yuanzhou to fall. It turns out that the enemy this time holds such a perverted corpse poison!

“We must find a way to crack this corpse poison, otherwise our chances of success are slim.” After a moment of silence, Huang Jizhong spoke up for the first time.

Zhuge Jin nodded and said, “Ten of our top-ranking members in Yuanzhou have already been infected. They have not only not weakened but have become a major obstacle to us.”

“If we can develop an antidote to remove the corpse poison from them, we will reduce a lot of trouble.”

After Zhuge Jin finished speaking, he looked at Medicine Master, apparently hoping that Medicine Master could find a way to detoxify.

The Medicine Master thought for a moment and said, “The infected people are basically no different from the dead. It is not realistic to clear the corpse poison from them, but I can try to develop a drug to prevent the corpse poison.”

“If we can develop a drug to prevent the corpse poison, it will also be very helpful for us in battle.” Zhuge Jin finished speaking and waved outside the door.

Two soldiers brought the body of a zombie.

Zhuge Jin then said to the Medicine Master, “We have prepared the research sample. It’s up to you to conduct research overnight and preferably develop the preventive drug before we take action.”

“I will do my best!” The Medicine Master nodded with a face full of cold sweat, feeling immense pressure.

Soon, the Medicine Master left the meeting with the body of the zombie and began to close himself off to research the corpse poison.

However, the meeting did not end there, and the people continued to discuss.

After introducing the enemy’s information, the next step is to discuss the battle plan.

Zhuge Jin continued, “The Blood Curse Demon has used its corpse poison to create an army of zombies, numbering no less than three hundred thousand!”

“These three hundred thousand zombie armies completely occupied the main city of Yuanzhou, trapping the Blood Curse Demon.”

“To eliminate the Blood Curse Demon, we must first lure away these three hundred thousand zombies. Otherwise with our army of ninety thousand, we won’t be able to deal with so many zombies!”

After about an incense stick’s worth of discussion, the crowd finally reached a consensus and formulated the final battle plan.

And this battle plan is to divide the forces into three routes.

Firstly, led by the top-ranking warriors from Zhongzhou, with thirty thousand patrols from Zhongzhou, they will attack the main city of Yuanzhou from the left side.

Secondly, led by the top-ranking warriors from Xizhou, with thirty thousand patrols from Xizhou, they will attack the main city of Yuanzhou from the right side.

Attacking Yuanzhou City from both the left and right sides will lure out the zombies in the city center while clearing the zombies in the outskirts of the city.

Finally, Zhongzhou City Lord Ye Gucheng, Yuanzhou City Lord Zhuge Jin, and Xizhou City Lord Huang Jizhong, all with the strength of True Martial Eighth Stage, will lead the patrols from Yuanzhou to directly charge into Yuanzhou City from the middle, joining forces to eliminate the source of the corpse poison while the zombies are lured away.

Ye Gucheng, Zhuge Jin, and Huang Jizhong are all True Martial Eighth Stage cultivators.

It is believed that as long as the three of them join forces, even a powerful demon with True Martial Ninth Stage strength can be dealt with!

The next morning.

Eighty thousand troops gathered outside Nanyun City.

Thirty thousand from Zhongzhou.

Thirty thousand from Xizhou.

Twenty thousand from Yuanzhou.

Eighty thousand troops gathered together, forming a scene of bustling crowds.

Zhuge Jin stood on the city gate and shouted loudly to the generals and soldiers, “Soldiers need not worry. This time, with the support of troops from Zhongzhou and Xizhou, as well as their top-ranking warriors, we will definitely be able to kill the demon beasts and reclaim our lost homeland!”

“Kill the demon beasts!”

“Kill the demon beasts!”

All the soldiers raised their fists and shouted excitedly.

And at that moment, a soldier ran over panting and excitedly said to Zhuge Jin, “City Lord, it’s a success! The Medicine Master did it!”

“Has the antidote to prevent the corpse poison been successfully developed?” Zhuge Jin widened his eyes in surprise.

The soldier nodded excitedly and said, “Yes!”

“Take me there quickly!” Ye Gucheng also became excited.

“No need.” Medicine Master’s voice sounded at this time.

Everyone turned to look, only to see the Medicine Master with dark circles under his eyes, walking towards them with a box in his hands.

Zhuge Jin immediately went up to meet him and said, “Indeed, you are worthy of being the master of alchemy in Zhongzhou! You have made great contributions this time!”

Medicine Master handed the box to Zhuge Jin, “Although the antidote has been developed, due to limited materials and time constraints, only a dozen or so have been produced.”

“A dozen or so are enough to meet the needs of the top-ranking members. This is already sufficient for us.” Zhuge Jin nodded satisfactorily.

From the beginning, he understood that it was not realistic to have all the soldiers take preventive medicine.

To prevent the top-ranking members from being infected with the corpse poison was already satisfactory for him.

After all, the top-ranking members are their main combat strength.
