"..." Nether Dragon was speechless, but he kept reminding himself not to stoop to their level...
Doctor spoke.
"Just stay home. Once the zombie tide gets there, we'll definitely come help."
"Huh? But..."
Nether Dragon had his doubts. Would that really work?
"But before that, Tombstone will definitely arrive first. He's much faster than the zombie tide."
"That's fine. Even if he gets there first, he won't dare attack recklessly. Don't forget, you're a member of the Undead Race too. You can stall for as long as possible and arrange to fight him a month later."
Doctor laid out his reasoning.
"Oh..."
Nether Dragon thought it over. That did make sense, but... would they really be ready in a month?
Still, at this point, he had no other choice. He could only trust Doctor unconditionally.
Whether he lived or died would depend entirely on them...
"All right! I understand!"
"Good. Go on back."
Doctor sent him on his way.
Then Nether Dragon left Great Sun City's corpse nest with his underlings, their figures gradually disappearing into the distance...
Behind him, Wild Wolf and the other zombie kings were curious and equally puzzled.
"Doctor, why a month later?"
"Because by then... we'll be different."
Doctor's words carried a deeper meaning.
Wild Wolf and the other zombie kings exchanged glances, still unsure what he meant.
But they felt awkward asking any more questions.
After returning to his corpse nest, Nether Dragon followed Doctor's instructions to the letter. He stayed inside and maintained strict defenses, even summoning back all his underlings roaming outside, putting everyone on high alert.
Although the actual fighting had yet to begin.
Zombies began appearing around the corpse nest, their faces savage as they constantly harassed and provoked him.
"Nether Dragon, you're finished! Boss Tombstone will be here
