272: Chapter 268: Solution 272: Chapter 268: Solution “What…” Ye Cheng was montarily stunned, thinking he had misheard.
However, Chen Hai paid no attention to him because, at that mont, as he actively charged toward the Green-haired Zombie, the distance between them had already shrunk to less than ten ters.
All his attention was now focused on the Green-haired Zombie; he couldn’t afford any distractions to idle chatter with Ye Cheng.
Mana gathered in his eyes, sharpening his vision remarkably.
Just as he had begun his Tao Cultivation journey and experienced that minor conflict with Zhang Yong, Chen Hai had already understood the miraculous effects of mana.
Under his mana-enhanced gaze, the Green-haired Zombie charging at him seed to slow down, its trajectory as it moved becoming clear and distinct.
“Thunder God and Lightning Mother, quickly bestow Divine Skills, boom boom boom boom boom, I command you in the na of Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad, abracadabra…”
Murmuring the incantation for the Little Five Thunder Skill in his heart, Chen Hai’s hands had already slightly risen.
Eight ters, five ters, three ters…
“Now is the ti!” With a twist of his body, he narrowly avoided a head-on collision with the Green-haired Zombie.
At almost the sa instant, Chen Hai’s raised hand also ca down in a strike.
If the Green-haired Zombie still retained the horrific speed of its heyday.
Even if Chen Hai infused his eyes with mana to see the Zombie’s running trajectory clearly, if his reaction speed could not keep up with his mind, he would not be able to dodge it in ti.
But now, after the Green-haired Zombie’s speed drastically reduced, as long as Chen Hai didn’t make any mistakes, he was fully capable of realizing the scenario he had envisioned.
His palm struck precisely as he narrowly dodged the Zombie.
Under such circumstances, the spot where his palm landed was naturally not the Zombie’s chest, but its back.
A flash of Thunder Light, and the Green-haired Zombie’s charging body suddenly froze in place.
Sheets of electric sparks flickered and rippled across its body.
“Roar…” With a wide-open mouth, the Green-haired Zombie roared incessantly.
The Little Five Thunder Skill was powerful, but the Green-haired Zombie’s body was extrely robust, many tis tougher than the Big Camphor Tree they encountered last night!
Chen Hai’s palm strike had only managed to temporarily paralyze the Zombie, without inflicting a fatal blow.
“Corpse Transformation…” Faced with this situation, Chen Hai’s brows furrowed slightly.
He never liked to put all his eggs in one basket.
Since he was physically involved, besides the Little Five Thunder Skill, he’d always been considering whether he had other ans to deal with this Green-haired Zombie!
Taking advantage of the mont when the Green-haired Zombie was temporarily paralyzed, Chen Hai’s hand flipped, and a small stack of talismans appeared in his hand.
His hands moved so quickly that afterimages appeared.
In less than a blink of an eye, he had slapped all the dozens of talismans onto the Zombie’s body.
These talismans were undoubtedly Corpse Transformation Talismans.
With his current skill in crafting talismans, it would take him days to create a single Danghui Talisman.
But if he were to draw Corpse Transformation Talismans, he could produce several in one day with enough ti and effort.
Chen Hai always carried quite a few of these talismans on him.
He vividly rembered that when he was selling talismans at the Boyue Convention and Exhibition Center, Boss Wei, who had bought the Corpse Transformation Talismans, had asked whether these talismans could contend with Zombies?
That question was sothing even Chen Hai himself did not know the exact answer to.
However, logically speaking, although Zombies could move, they were still corpses by strict definition and could not be considered living.
Since they were corpses, using the Corpse Transformation Talismans would indeed have a significant chance of completely disintegrating them!
Now, to enhance the effect of Corpse Transformation, Chen Hai did not just use one or two talismans, but a full dozen or more.
After slapping these dozen or so Corpse Transformation Talismans onto the Green-haired Zombie, Chen Hai turned tail and ran.
After all, dissolving a Zombie with Corpse Transformation Talismans was just a guess.
Should an accident occur and the talismans prove completely ineffective against the Zombie, and the creature break free from its paralysis to attack him, Chen Hai’s feeble body couldn’t possibly withstand it.
He scrambled over twenty ters away and only when he felt certain of his safety did Chen Hai turn back!
“Where is that monster?
Why can’t I see it anymore?”
He was, for the most part, bewildered.
The spot where the Green-haired Zombie had been was now entirely vacant.
Aside from so damp patches on the ground, there was only a tattered jacket and a pair of trousers, crumpled like a piece of rag, fallen to the floor.
In another direction, Ye Cheng, with his mouth wide open, had been staring at the two tattered pieces of clothing on the ground.
He looked like an idiot, rubbing his eyes every few seconds as if he wanted to make sure he hadn’t seen wrong.
“Chen Hai, I’ve only ever heard that won are made of water, but no one ever told that zombies are made of water too!”
“Just now, right before my eyes, that green-haired zombie, its body lted into water bit by bit and seeped into the ground beneath.”
“Can you tell what exactly is going on?”
“I seem to have heard that zombies are the darlings of the earth; did it just get beaten by you and escape into the earth to flee?”
…
Completely baffled, and upon seeing Chen Hai look his way, Ye Cheng hurried over toward him with a little jog.
Tilting his head, like a curious baby, he tentatively spoke and asked Chen Hai.
“I’ve already taken action myself, it was just a re green-haired zombie, flee?
Where could it possibly escape to?”
“I slapped over a dozen talismans on it, and if I’m not mistaken, that ghostly thing dissolving into water should an it’s completely dead!”
“Of course, if you guys are worried about any unexpected occurrences, you can have soone thoroughly search the area again.”
Hearing Ye Cheng say this, Chen Hai naturally knew what was going on.
He was already well aware of the Corpse Transformation Talisman’s effects.
It was just that using a Corpse Transformation Talisman to dispose of a zombie was new to him, without any prior experience.
More than a dozen Corpse Transformation Talismans, the effect was also a bit too strong.
rely running a distance of ten or twenty ters, the formidable green-haired zombie had, in the blink of an eye, lted away.
Had he known that using Corpse Transformation Talismans against a zombie would be this effective, he would have used them more sparingly!
“So that green-haired monster is really dead?
Just like that?”
His face full of disbelief, Ye Cheng exclaid.
To deal with this creature, thousands of them had been stationed here for nearly a month.
Not to ntion the people who died at the hands of this monster in the earlier days, just today, twenty to thirty soldiers had lost their lives to this creature.
So many of them, with the help of modern weapons, had bombarded the monster for nearly half an hour, yet failed to subdue it.
But Chen Hai?
He rely faced the monster, dodged it once, and after slapping it a few tis, made it die on the spot, leaving no remains.
This stark contrast before his eyes, rembering all this, left a bitter taste in Ye Cheng’s heart.
Truth be told, the mont he saw the monster dissolve into water before his eyes, he had already thought that it might be dead!
He simply didn’t want to accept this fact deep down!
“To kill this thing, I had to use over a dozen talismans, and you think that’s simple?”
“You know the value of the talismans I draw, I don’t need to say it, you should have an idea!”
“Brother Cheng, to help you, I’ve really made a big sacrifice!”
“Now, you can tell your colleagues to co over, I have no other requirents, since the matter is resolved, I just want to go ho and take a nice hot bath!”
With complete seriousness, Chen Hai explained.
Using the Corpse Transformation Talisman to deal with the green-haired zombie was basically a shot in the dark, but that was sothing only he needed to be clear about.
In front of Ye Cheng, his big cousin, he naturally still needed to maintain a good image!
“Chen Hai, if you had taken action earlier, my soldiers…”
Thinking of the soldiers who had tragically died at the hands of the green-haired monster, Ye Cheng’s mood darkened again.
With a complex expression, he looked at Chen Hai a few tis and sighed.
“Brother Cheng, if the monster hadn’t been so severely injured, causing its speed to greatly decrease, do you think I would have had the chance to land a few hits on it?”
“Don’t think that my actions now seed effortless and with zero difficulty against the monster.”
“But had it not been weakened, I reckon I would have entered standing up and left lying down.”
“The loss of many soldiers truly pains ; they are all heroes.
Without their sacrifice, I wouldn’t have been able to resolve this thing so quickly…”
Hearing Ye Cheng say this, Chen Hai also sighed and explained.
His words were not an act; he genuinely believed that the soldiers who had died were the greatest contributors to the successful resolution of the green-haired zombie incident.
While the two of them were talking, Elder Fang and others, who had been staying at the edge of the forest, received the news that the situation had been resolved and finally made their way over.
Not very eager to deal with these people, Chen Hai greeted Ye Cheng and then headed straight for the outskirts of the forest.
