• Survivors and fleeing shelter Decision Makers watched the footage in stunned silence as the Mutated Rhinoceros Zombies leveled the mountain.

Li Chen ordered Noah to broadcast footage of Third Generation Zombies rampaging in Africa, alarming survivors and factions around the world. In B Province, the First and Second Generation Zombie Kings watched the images and recognized the threat, with the First Generation Zombie King conceding that the Second Generation Zombie King's plan to drive survivors toward Li Chen's shelter was justified.

• Li Chen asked Noah to spread Xu Ruoxi's footage of the Third Generation Zombies across the world, and Noah projected it wherever a network connection remained.
• Survivors and factions across North America, Europe, and South America panicked at the monsters' size and power, while some leaders began reinforcing shelters or proposing alliances.
• In B Province, a holographic projection interrupted the First and Second Generation Zombie Kings' argument about negotiation.
• The two Zombie Kings and the zombies around them watched scenes of Third Generation Zombies attacking in Africa and grew solemn.
• The Second Generation Zombie King argued that the new monsters were their common enemy and defended his plan to push survivors toward Li Chen's shelter.
• The First Generation Zombie King accepted that the survivors' shelters could not withstand the threat and that the Second Generation Zombie King's decision had been correct.

The First and Second Generation Zombie Kings discussed the threat posed by the Third Generation Zombies, and the Second Generation Zombie King revealed that he had removed the control chip implanted in his brain. As the Zombie Kings drove human survivors from Province B, Li Chen used footage of the monsters to unite Province A’s shelters under the Star-Level Shelter, though some people refused to join.

• The First Generation Zombie King and the Second Generation Zombie King watched footage of the Third Generation Zombies and discussed their immense power and possible abilities.

Li Chen learned that Third Generation Zombies were battling atop Kilimanjaro to determine their king and ordered Xu Ruoxi to test their strength with Super Metal Cubes. As a five-thousand-ton cube fell toward the fighting zombies, Hua Ju Laboratory Headquarters began investigating the mysterious object.

• Li Chen let the fugitives who refused to join his ranks leave and delegated the remaining cleanup to Zhao Fenghua and the others.
• Xu Ruoxi reported that enormous humanoid zombies were fighting atop Kilimanjaro, with an eighty-five-meter Giant Zombie tearing apart a seventy-seven-meter rival.
• Xu Ruoxi told Li Chen that the Third Generation Zombies had attacked the Super Metal Cubes dropped for testing, and Li Chen asked her to target the humanoid giants.
• Xu Ruoxi ordered a five-thousand-ton Super Metal Cube dropped from the stealth-flying Super Transport Plane, prompting the zombies below to scatter.
• Hua Ju Laboratory Headquarters spotted the falling cube on surveillance and began investigating its unknown metal composition.

Li Chen’s team tested the Super Metal Cube against Third Generation Zombies and discovered that a Giant Zombie could punch with the force of a 100,000-ton-yield bomb without damaging it. The mission remained in progress, and the chapter ended as another Giant Zombie tried to lift the cube.

• A Giant Zombie struck the falling Super Metal Cube with Fist Pressure and sent the five-thousand-ton cube flying.
• Xu Ruoxi reported that the punch’s power equaled the energy released by a 100,000-ton-yield Mushroom Bomb, enough to destroy a small city.
• Li Chen saw that the Super Metal Cube had landed without a scratch, but his mission panel still showed the test as in progress.
• A sixty-meter Giant Zombie tried and failed to lift the cube, then another Giant Zombie knocked it aside and attempted to lift it.

Li Chen and Xu Ruoxi observed Third Generation Zombies competing to lift the Super Metal Cube and learned that they had powerful regenerative abilities and considerable intelligence. Li Chen explained that the Cube was being used to choose a Zombie King, then reassured Xu Ruoxi that the Super Defense Barrier was only the first stage of his defensive plan.

• A Giant Zombie broke its legs trying to lift the Super Metal Cube, then visibly regenerated as Xu Ruoxi watched.

• Li Chen concluded that the zombies were using the indestructible, heavy Cube to determine which of them would become their king.
• Xu Ruoxi connected the Cube contests to other mutated zombie groups and warned that Third Generation Zombies could jump high enough to threaten the Super Defense Barrier.
• Li Chen agreed with Xu Ruoxi’s concern and said the Super Defense Barrier was only the foundation of a larger defensive structure.

Li Chen learned that the strongest Third Generation Zombie could camouflage itself and had attacked Xu Ruoxi’s stealth-mode Super Transport Plane. Though the zombie shook the aircraft with its blows, it could not damage the fuselage and became the target of its firepower.

• Li Chen examined the test data and determined that the giant Third Generation Zombie’s attacks were far stronger than those of the others, while the Super Metal Cube remained undamaged.
• Xu Ruoxi noticed the strongest zombie had disappeared from the mountaintop, and Li Chen warned that Third Generation Zombies could camouflage themselves.
• Li Chen ordered Xu Ruoxi to return, but the strongest zombie struck the Super Transport Plane and disrupted communications.
• Li Chen called Dang Zhongcheng for help, but Xu Ruoxi reported that the plane was holding up against the attack.
• The strongest zombie stood on the Super Transport Plane and battered it without damaging the fuselage, drawing the aircraft’s firepower.

Li Chen ordered Xu Ruoxi to kill the strongest Third Generation Zombie after it evolved into its third stage and grew wings, fearing it would threaten other human shelters. The Super Transport Plane bombarded the flying zombie, but its electromagnetic Sonic Attack disrupted the aircraft’s instruments, and the chapter ended with the zombie badly wounded but its fate unclear.

• The Super Transport Plane’s defenses held as its Energy Cannons battered the strongest Third Generation Zombie until it lost its balance and began falling.
• The zombie sprouted dark crimson wings, regained control in the air, and faced the Super Transport Plane.
• Li Chen ordered Xu Ruoxi to kill the zombie at any cost because it could fly after returning to threaten other human shelters.
• The zombie rose toward the aircraft and shouted a threat while releasing a Sonic Attack containing electromagnetic energy.
• The Sonic Attack made the plane’s instruments spark, but Xu Ruoxi confirmed they remained functional.
• The plane’s concentrated bombardment engulfed the zombie, leaving its body charred and mangled as the smoke began to clear.

Li Chen and Xu Ruoxi used the Super Transport Plane to kill the strongest Third Generation Zombie and drive millions of others from the African continent, but the plane’s ammunition ran low before they could finish the hunt. Meanwhile, survivors in Province B were forced from their homes and decided to seek refuge in Province A, now ruled by the Star-Level Shelter.

• Xu Ruoxi fired another bombardment at the strongest Third Generation Zombie, reducing it to a skeleton that fell from the sky and died.
• Li Chen ordered Xu Ruoxi to attack the remaining Third Generation Zombies, and the Super Transport Plane hunted them with its cannons.
• The Third Generation Zombies retaliated with boulders, leaps, and compressed-air punches, but the plane’s speed let it avoid most attacks and drive them into retreat.
• After more than three hours of fighting, the plane’s cannon energy was nearly exhausted, so Li Chen ordered it to return and prepare for further action.
• Li Chen confirmed that Noah’s mission and the mission to occupy Province A were complete, and found twelve Super Deluxe Gift Packs in his System Backpack.
• In Province B, survivors were forced from their homes during negotiations between the First and Second Generation Zombie Kings, then chose to head for Province A and seek help from the Star-Level Shelter.

• A bespectacled scientist offered to retrieve and revive the third-generation zombie skeleton, and the Men in Black asked whether he could turn it into a Third Generation Zombie King.

Li Chen prepared the Star-Level Shelter for the threat of Third Generation Zombies, expanded Super Metal Steel 001 production, and opened twelve Super Deluxe Gift Packs packed with energy and valuable blueprints. The chapter left him examining his rewards and anticipating the production lines he had obtained.

• The evil scientist promised the Men in Black he would create an obedient Third Generation Zombie King, while a space alarm prompted him to suspect the Dark Night Organization.
• Li Chen ordered Zhao Fenghua and the others to move personnel to Province Y for reconstruction, then gathered commanders and experts to review footage of Third Generation Zombies.
• Li Chen upgraded the Super Metal Steel 001 production line to Level 5, added ten more lines, and ordered ten thousand Transport Robots and Excavation Robots.
• Li Chen used twelve Super Deluxe Gift Packs and received 120 billion Evolution Energy, millions of Energy Crystal Cores across multiple generations, and several production line blueprints.
• Li Chen confirmed that a Third Generation Tier 3 Energy Crystal Core held energy equivalent to ten First Generation Level 6 cores and turned his attention to the new blueprints.

Li Chen examined the new production-line blueprints and challenged Noah for providing obsolete technology, but Noah explained that advanced equipment would expose Earth to powerful civilizations. Reassured, Li Chen installed and upgraded production lines for bombers, fighters, and Super Sky Curtain modules.

• Li Chen found blueprints for an all-weather tactical bomber, a super fighter, and a Super Sky Curtain module in his System Backpack.
• Li Chen complained that Noah kept giving him obsolete technology and demanded products from higher-level civilizations.

• Li Chen accepted Noah’s explanation and used the three Fully Automated Production Line Blueprints.
• Li Chen expanded the bomber and fighter production lines to five each, expanded the Super Sky Curtain module lines to ten, and upgraded them to Level 5.

Li Chen assessed how long it would take to build a Super Sky Curtain defense against the Third Generation Zombies and learned that Hua Ju Laboratory could trigger an attack at any time. He decided to expand production with manual labor and ordered Zhao Fenghua and the others to send workers.

• Li Chen reviewed the Super Sky Curtain production line’s output and asked Noah to calculate how much covering Province Y would require.
• Noah calculated that Province Y needed 1.14 million square kilometers of Super Sky Curtain, far beyond the 270 square kilometers Li Chen’s fifteen production lines could make each day.
