Chapter 94 A Narrow Escape
Chapter 94 A Narrow Escape
The collapsed skyscrapers are in the shadows.
Five figures were struggling to move forward.
He watched his surroundings warily, his expression tense.
"Brother Chen, how much further?"
The beast-like woman, Li Xiaoman, wiped the sweat from her face and asked.
Her entire body was covered in hard, black scales that gleamed coldly in the sunlight—that was her special ability, Beast Transformation: Scale Armor Form.
Its defensive capabilities are astonishing, and its strength has also increased significantly.
Chen Zhen, the bearded man, walked at the front and turned around to look when he heard this.
His entire body was made of steel, like a metal statue in the ruins, each step he took causing the rubble to crumble.
This is his superpower: a body made of steel, impervious to blades and spears, and possessing immense strength.
"Almost there. Fatty said it's 20 kilometers, and we've covered about half of it."
Chen Zhen's voice came from his metallic throat, sounding somewhat muffled.
"But I feel like there are more and more zombies around me."
"This is what Su Qing, a plant-based superpower user, said weakly."
Her wounds had just been bandaged, but blood was already seeping out.
Her special ability is that her body can transform into plant vines, which she can whip and bind.
The bald, fat man, Zhang Feng, fell from the sky, bringing a gust of wind with him. His expression was not good.
"Brother Chen, something's not right up ahead. I flew up to a higher place and saw that there are at least a hundred zombies gathered in that ruin, and... there are some big ones."
"A big one?"
Zhou Yan, who controlled the earth element, clenched his fist, causing the gravel beneath his feet to tremble slightly. "What level is it?"
"At least... Lord-level." Zhang Feng swallowed hard. "More than one."
The expressions on their faces instantly turned serious.
There were only five of them, and all of them were injured.
If you really encounter a lord-level zombie, especially in multiples, you simply have no chance against it.
"Let's take a detour," Chen Zhen decided immediately. "We don't have the resources to fight head-on."
However, the words had barely left his mouth.
"roar!"
A deafening roar came from the side!
Immediately afterwards, countless dark figures surged out from the buildings on both sides of the ruins!
"We're surrounded!" Li Xiaoman exclaimed.
Chen Zhen gritted his teeth: "Prepare for battle!"
The battle erupted instantly.
The first to rush forward were the runners, who were extremely fast and came from all directions!
Zhou Yan pressed his hands to the ground, and a yellowish-brown light flickered!
"Spiked Ground!"
"Boom!"
The ground suddenly cracked open, and countless sharp earth spikes pierced out from the ground, instantly piercing through the dozen or so runners at the forefront!
Green, rotting blood splattered as zombies screamed and struggled while hanging on the spikes.
The zombies behind them continued to pounce, stepping over the corpses of their companions!
"Wind Blade!"
Fatty Zhang Feng waved his hands, and several cyan wind blades whistled out, cutting three zombies that pounced on Zhou Yan in half at the waist!
Su Qing gritted her teeth, waved her right hand, and a thick vine extended from her arm, lashing out like a whip at the zombie horde on her left!
"Snapped!"
The vines lashed out at a tyrant zombie, leaving deep bloody marks.
The tyrant roared, grabbed the vine, and pulled hard!
Su Qing gasped as she was dragged over!
"Xiao Qing!"
Chen Zhen roared, his steel-like body charging forward, and punched the tyrant in the chest!
"Bang!"
The tyrant was sent flying backward, crashing into half a wall and leaving a large crater in his chest.
It was still alive, struggling to its feet and letting out an even angrier roar.
Chen Zhen didn't have time to finish off the zombies, because even more zombies were already surging up!
"roar!!!"
He roared to the sky, his steel body withstanding the bites of several runners, his fists swinging wildly, each punch killing a zombie!
But there were too many zombies.
Densely packed, like a tide.
Even more terrifying, deep within the ruins, two enormous figures were slowly approaching.
Those were two lord-level zombies.
It was a creature six meters tall, covered in bone plates, with huge bone hammers in its arms, and the ground trembled with every step it took.
It's the Bone Hammer Tyrant!
The other one was even more bizarre, its entire body grayish-white, its arms transformed into dozens of tentacles, each with sharp bone spurs at the end.
Tentacle Reaper!
Two lords appeared at the same time.
"It's over..." Zhang Feng hovered in the air, looking at the two figures, his face pale.
Chen Zhen's pupils also contracted.
But he had no way out.
Behind him were four teammates who had risked their lives alongside him.
"Zhou Yan! Earth Wall! Block their path!" he roared.
Zhou Yan gritted his teeth, pressed his hands to the ground, and unleashed a burst of earthy yellow light!
"Boom!"
The ground cracked open, and a three-meter-thick earthen wall rose from underground, lying between the two buildings, attempting to block the two lords.
The Bone Hammer Tyrant simply raised its massive arm and brought the hammer down!
"Bang!!!"
The earthen wall crumbled like tofu!
Zhou Yan coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground.
"Zhou Yan!" Li Xiaoman rushed over to protect him, her scaly arms blocking his way, her eyes fixed on the approaching lord.
The tentacle reaper let out a strange hiss, and dozens of tentacles swept towards the five people like venomous snakes!
Chen Zhen rushed forward, his steel-like body withstanding the tentacles head-on!
"Pfft pfft pfft!"
The tentacles lashed at him, leaving shallow white marks, but the bone spikes at the ends of the tentacles seemed to be alive, trying to find gaps and pierce his eyes and mouth.
Su Qing struggled to get up, the vines growing wildly, wrapping around several tentacles and pulling hard!
Li Xiaoman protected Zhou Yan as she retreated, but the tentacles bypassed Chen Zhen and stabbed from the side!
"Be careful!"
Zhang Feng swooped down from the sky, his wind blades severing two tentacles, but more tentacles had already wrapped around his ankles. He pulled hard!
"what!"
Zhang Feng screamed as he was dragged toward the tentacle harvester!
"Fatty!"
Chen Zhen's eyes turned red, and his steel body unleashed its full power. He punched away the tentacles that were entangled with him and charged towards Zhang Feng!
But Bonehammer Tyrant stepped to the side, blocking his way.
The giant arm swung up and the hammer came crashing down!
Chen Zhen crossed his arms to block.
"Bang!!!"
As if hit by a high-speed train, Chen Zhen was sent flying backward, smashing through two walls and embedding himself deeply into the wall of an abandoned building!
A tiny crack appeared on his steel-like chest.
"Brother Chen!"
Su Qing screamed in despair.
The tentacles of the Tentacle Reaper had already wrapped around Zhang Feng's neck and limbs.
Slowly tighten.
Zhang Feng's face turned bright red as he struggled desperately but couldn't break free.
Bone Hammer Tyrant turned around and walked towards Zhou Yan and Li Xiaoman, who were lying on the ground.
Li Xiaoman protected Zhou Yan, her body trembling beneath the scales.
But she did not run away.
Can't escape.
There is nowhere to escape.
"I'll take someone down with me even if I die!" she growled through gritted teeth, her fists clenched, the scales on her arms shimmering with iridescent colors in the sunlight.
She was prepared to fight to the death.
Su Qing slumped to the ground, the vines hanging limply, tears mixed with blood streaming down her face.
ended.
After more than a month of searching and the sacrifice of twenty companions, in the end... was it still impossible to escape?
Chen Zhen was embedded in the wall, watching helplessly as his teammates were about to be killed, but he couldn't move.
A look of despair appeared in the eyes beneath the steel body.
"I'm sorry~"
He murmured, and as soon as he moved, silvery-white blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
at this time,
"boom!!!"
A deafening sonic boom exploded from the sky!
The sound was so loud, it was like thunder exploding in my ears!
Everyone, all the zombies, instinctively looked up.
In the sky, a golden figure was swooping down at an incredible speed!
Behind him, a white sonic boom cloud slowly spread out.
Supersonic!
That's supersonic!
"What is that..." Zhang Feng managed to squeeze out a sound as his neck was wrapped around.
next second.
The golden figure was already charging towards the Bone Hammer Tyrant.
The Bone Hammer Tyrant seemed to sense a deadly threat and instinctively raised its massive arm, slamming it down with all its might!
The man did not dodge.
He simply raised his right hand and made a fist.
A punch was thrown!
"Bang!!!"
The moment the fist collided with the giant hammer, the Bone Hammer Tyrant's massive arm exploded!
Bone fragments mixed with putrid blood were flying everywhere!
Immediately afterwards, without slowing down, he punched the Bone Hammer Tyrant in the head.
"puff!"
His head was powerless to resist and shattered instantly.
The headless corpse, six meters tall, was sent flying backwards as if struck by a meteorite!
It smashed through two buildings, collapsed a wall, and finally became deeply embedded in the ruins.
One punch.
Just one punch.
Lord-level zombie, dead!
silence.
A deathly silence.
Chen Zhen stared wide-eyed, embedded in the wall, forgetting to struggle.
Su Qing opened her mouth wide, tears still hanging on her face, but she forgot to shed them.
Li Xiaoman's hand, which was protecting Zhou Yan, froze in mid-air.
Zhang Feng's neck was wrapped by tentacles, but he forgot to breathe.
The man slowly turned around and looked at the tentacle harvester.
The tentacle reaper let out a terrified screech, and all its tentacles abandoned Zhang Feng and lashed out at him frantically!
The man raised his right arm.
The palm lights up.
A beam of white light shot out!
"laugh!"
The beam swept across, instantly severing all the tentacles!
Before the tentacle reaper could even scream, the beam of light had already slashed across its head!
The skull split open in the middle, and green, putrid blood gushed out.
The enormous body crashed to the ground.
The two lord-level zombies appeared and died in less than three seconds.
The ruins fell into a deathly silence.
Only the mournful sound of the wind blowing through the ruins could be heard.
The man withdrew his arm and glanced at the five people.
"Who are you people?"
His voice was calm, yet it sent a chill down the spines of all five of them.
It's not fear.
It was shocking.
That kind of overwhelming, primal shock of being completely crushed.
Zhang Feng got up from the ground, forgetting his injuries and the near death he had just suffered, and just stared blankly at the man.
"Sonic...sonic boom..." he murmured, "Supersonic...it really is supersonic..."
Chen Zhen struggled to climb out of the wall, his steel-like form dissipated, revealing a tired and shocked face.
His legs went weak and he almost knelt down.
We were just on the verge of despair.
Just when they thought they were about to be completely wiped out.
The other party appeared.
With invincible power, he instantly killed two lord-level zombies and saved them.
Is this...is this a dream?
Su Qing covered her face, tears streaming through her fingers, crying like a child.
Li Xiaoman, supporting Zhou Yan, also had red eyes and was desperately trying to hold back her tears.
