Chapter 2335 Levi Is Wrong
However, nothing changed the fact that Maya Industries intended to kill Levi.
They hadn’t acted sooner because they had expected the chemicals to take effect when Levi got stabbed.
Now that the newly discovered material had cured him, Maya Industries would have to double their efforts to get rid of him.
Meanwhile, Kirin’s team went into hiding with Levi after successfully escaping the horde of zombies.
When he saw the blood on them, Levi asked, “Are all of you injured?”
“Yes, but it’s nothing serious! Don’t worry about it,” Kirin replied without batting an eye.
“Of course, we can always choose to carry on avoiding and hiding. After all, Divine Leaderboard fighters still have the upper hand in this indigenous forest, and we can very easily dodge all these monsters!” Kinsley chimed in.
Ghost Fiend nodded in agreement and added, “Yes, but since we’re here to gain experience, there’d still be times where we have to think of ways to defeat them instead of running away. Sustaining a few injuries is no big deal at all!”
Especially since Ghost Fiend had perfected his technique, it made even more sense for him to use it on the monsters than to avoid them.
Levi, too, understood their reasoning and nodded his approval.
If they were back at Triple Group’s fortress, hiding in that confined space wouldn’t have been an option since they’d be surrounded in no time at all.
The indigenous forest, though, was a different story.
It was so massive that not even a million mutated zombies could pack the forest, much less cause a ripple.
If one were determined to escape, any fighter ranked on the Divine Leaderboard would be more than capable of doing so.
Judging by their current situation, Levi knew that Maya Industries couldn’t have sent more than ten thousand zombies, which made it even easier for any decent fighter to escape.
However, many fighters had come into the forest to train and level up, so it was only logical that they chose to fight rather than flee.
Even though he understood the fighters’ mentality, the true intention of Maya Industries continued to elude Levi.
What on earth are they planning to do?
Just then, Levi suddenly remembered something and demanded to check the wounds of Kirin, Ghost Fiend, and Kinsley.
After a thorough check, Levi heaved a sigh of relief, thankful that it wasn’t like what he had suspected.
He had thought of the possibility of Maya Industries injuring the fighters with their mutated zombies and infecting the wounds with their chemical.
Once the fighters were as good as dead, Maya Industries would then step in and introduce the antidote that could save them.
By doing so, Maya Industries would essentially have most of the fighters on the Divine and Provisional Leaderboards at their mercy, thus gaining control of them.
As such, Levi had to check his teammates’ wounds to ensure there were no chemical traces.
Then again, Levi also knew how difficult it’d be to pull off a devious plan like that.
The mutated zombies were limited in their attacks, and the use of chemicals would very quickly draw the attention of other fighters.
Furthermore, if Maya Industries’ ploy got discovered, there was no doubt the rest of the world would shun them and make them public enemy number one.
None of that would benefit Maya Industries, so naturally, they wouldn’t take such a risk either.
Levi knew his suspicions were wrong, but the nagging question remained—what was Maya Industries planning to do?
The more he thought about it, the more his head hurt.
When Kirin saw how focused Levi was, he couldn’t help but ask, “Boss, what’s on your mind? Have you thought of a way to take down these monsters?”
“Of course! It’s not difficult at all. I’ve already lost count of how many monsters I killed!”
Kirin, Ghost Fiend, and Kinsley stared after him, mouths agape.
Why do we bother asking when we know Levi’s always lying through his teeth?
“O-Okay… What is it then?”
Before Levi could say anything else, the ground suddenly shook.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
It sounded like an army was charging toward them, and true enough, a massive horde of mutated zombies soon came into view.
