Bloodveil was already thinking about bailing. Sure, he wanted those human crystal cores—who wouldn't?—but staying alive took priority now.
His eyes darted around. There were still quite a few other Zombie Kings from different Regions nearby. But with the speed those SSS-ranked Awakeners had? No way they'd outrun them.
Still, Bloodveil wasn't about to worry about the others. If anything, leaving them behind might buy him a few precious seconds to escape.
"We need to stick together!" he shouted, masking his true intentions. No way he'd let them know he was planning to ditch them. After all, he was part of the infamous "Backstabbing Alliance"—betraying teammates was kind of his thing.
"Boss Bloodveil, what's the plan?" asked the Two-Headed Zombie King.
"We hit them together, take those humans down!" Bloodveil said, trying to sound fired up.
"Uh, sure, okay," the Two-Headed Zombie King replied.
