He Was Still Too Late

Someone had already pressed on the bullet wound on his body.

No one believed Wang Bujian's words.

After all, with that bloody, mangled wound right in front of them, they all assumed that Wang Bujian was just putting on a brave face.

Or... it could be an adrenaline rush, and this is just a temporary respite. Once the adrenaline is depleted, Wang Bujian be able to hold on.

"Chief, hold on!"

Why hasn't the doctor arrived yet?

"Our base has been established for too short a time, and many systems are not yet fully in place."

"Are there no people who were doctors before?"

"There are only paramedics, but in this situation, without the necessary medical equipment, even if a doctor came, they couldn't do anything..."

Unease, fear, and despair filled their hearts.

Some people even planned to perform CPR on him.

Wang Bujian's face darkened; he was about to push away the people blocking his way with one hand each.

Another person stepped forward from the crowd.

The man had a weathered face, with an unkempt beard and unkempt hair. His eyes were deeply sunken, and his dark circles were so thick that it looked like he had been punched several times.

He stopped the patrolling guards. "You'd better isolate the others and seal off the entire area. An assassin has already infiltrated this place, and there's no doubt that others have as well."

The guard looked at him with surprise and some wariness, because the man looked completely unfamiliar and did not seem to be a subject of the Immortal Royal Court.

"Who are you?"

The man sighed, looking with a pitying gaze at the direction of Wang Bujian, who was completely blocked by the crowd, with not a single gap visible.

"My name is Tian Hao, and I used to be the leader of a large base."

"What?"

Some people couldn't help but exclaim.

"Is he the leader of Tian Hao?"

How is that possible?

"Wasn't Leader Tian Hao supposed to have stayed behind to cover the retreat and died?"

"Is he really the leader of Tian Hao?"

"How would I know? I've never even met such an important person."

The guard gasped, "You... you are really Leader Tian Hao?"

Tian Hao nodded, but then sighed and said, "There's no need for that. I'm nothing more than a stray dog now."

The Tian Hao leader is a trustworthy person.

The guards immediately sent men to seal off the area and disperse the large crowd.

"Make way, everyone make way! No one is allowed to move!"

Soon, the nearby guards all rushed over and separated the crowd from Wang Bujian.

Those closest to Wang Bujian were also temporarily detained.

A group of people carried a stretcher, about to take Wang Bujian away.

Wang Bujian knew that he absolutely couldn't go against the other party at this point, and besides, he also wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of the rats in the Immortal Royal Court.

So he lay down on the stretcher without any resistance and was carried into the villa by the guards.

Tian Hao watched as blood dripped continuously from the stretcher.

That blood-red color was blinding.

His heart was heavy, and his eyes held a hint of deep regret.

He was still too late.

Tian Hao narrowly escaped from that hellish Zombie Tide, but his brothers who followed him were either killed or wounded in the process.

He had originally decided to stay behind to cover their retreat so they could leave, but none of them were willing to leave.

For the sake of his brothers, he had no choice but to abandon the idea of dying with the base.

Unfortunately, the breakout was extremely difficult, and they retreated too late.

Despite his overwhelming grief, Tian Hao sent his last zombie brother on his way.
