After nightfall, in a seven-story building in D City, the flickering lights were exceptionally eye-catching, but upon closer inspection, one could see that the flickering was not from lights, but from rapidly spinning fireballs.
The fireballs ford a circle around a bluish-white zombie, temporarily restricting its movents.
"Whew, I told you there was a real Level Eight zombie here, but you didn’t believe . This guy is really hard to deal with."
Kou Ning wiped his sweat and said to the two n and two won beside him.
"We’ve been fighting for over half an hour, it is definitely not a Pseudo High-level Zombie."
This is a bona fide Level Eight Ice-Elent Mutated Zombie, and Su Jin watched ahead without a trace of carelessness.
Just now, she and Lu Hao had jointly killed a Level Eight Earth Elent Mutated Zombie, but this one, which Lin Xiuyuan and Kou Ning had been fighting for half an hour, was still alive and kicking.
Liang Wei also learned about so of D City’s current situation over the past few days. Upon hearing Yao Rui lanting about the Level Eight Zombies appearing outside the base, Liang Wei inford Yao Rui about the pseudo high-level zombies that appeared at S City base before.
However, Yao Rui did not believe the high-level zombies outside D City base were fake.
Their base team had tangled with a Level Eight zombie for an entire day, suffering considerable losses. Although they managed to kill the zombie eventually, everyone at the base was now fearful of going out, dreading an unlucky encounter with a high-level zombie.
It’s said that it’s impossible to escape once you’re caught by a high-level zombie.
The zombie crisis is a global problem, so Liang Wei imdiately recomnded the Heart Talk Team, suggesting that Yao Rui should assign tasks to the Heart Talk Team, resolving one problem at a ti.
Kou Ning had already gone out alone at night twice and had previously ntioned encountering a Level Eight zombie. At that ti, Su Jin and her group didn’t fully believe it, but when Yao Rui brought the actual task to them, they couldn’t help but believe.
"Turns out the real Level Eight is this strong, I’m going to fight it!"
Lin Xiuyuan charged forward furiously.
"Watch out for the ground!"
Mao Qiqi warned.
Su Jin simply took out two high-beam flashlights from the space, illuminating the entire floor as bright as day.
Just as Mao Qiqi had warned, the ground had turned into a glass-like smooth ice surface, reflecting cold white light under the lights. It seed the zombie was waiting for Lin Xiuyuan to charge forward and reveal a weakness.
As an Ice-Elent Ability User, Lin Xiuyuan certainly knew that the ice blocks of the Ice-Elent Zombie couldn’t be touched, so he promptly conjured his own ice block and stood on it.
"I’ll help."
Su Jin summoned vine branches that spread across the ice like a large brown net, and upon seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan jumped onto it, launching wave after wave of ice spikes towards the Ice-Elent Zombie within the ring of fireballs!
"Six more mutated zombies are coming, from above."
Although Mao Qiqi was not a main combat team mber, her early warnings were proving effective, and Lu Hao and Kou Ning were already prepared.
Fortunately, the mutated zombies coming down from the upper floor were no longer Level Eight but four Level Six and two Level Seven mutated zombies.
"We’ll guard this side,"
Lu Hao said.
Su Jin nodded, looking at the Ice-Elent Zombie still fiercely battling Lin Xiuyuan. She intended to bind it with the vines on the ground while it was defending Lin Xiuyuan’s attacks, but it noticed.
This indicated that the battle instincts of the Level Eight zombie had improved.
"Trying to escape?"
Seeing that it seed to want to break free from the ring of fireballs, Su Jin simply summoned a gigantic cage, trapping the zombie inside.
At the sa ti, more than a dozen vines on the ground swiftly extended towards the zombie inside the cage.
"Together,"
Lin Xiuyuan said upon seeing this, knowing his Level Six ice spikes would struggle to harm the Level Eight Ice-Elent Zombie, but if combined with Su Jin’s Wood Elent, it might be effective.
A layer of Ice-Elent Special Ability covered each vine, rging the two special abilities as they drilled into the cage!
Roar...
The wooden cage had a corner kicked apart by the Ice-Elent Zombie, but Su Jin also breathed a sigh of relief. They succeeded!
More than a dozen ice spike-covered vines pierced into the zombie’s body, including its wide-open mouth.
"The first ti I’ve tangled with a zombie for nearly an hour."
Lin Xiuyuan was slightly dazed, wondering if his abilities had regressed, and why he felt outpaced by the tis.
"We’ll discuss it later, help them."
Su Jin said, knowing that Lu Hao’s side consisted only of three people, dealing with six mutated zombies was not easy.
The task issued by Yao Rui didn’t seem difficult to them, and Yao Rui had ntioned that the number of Level Eight Zombies was uncertain. Hence, they planned to have a few mbers search, just as Kou Ning ntioned a Level Eight zombie here, so only four of them were sent.
At this mont, Lu Hao and the three others were still tangled with four zombies, with even Mao Qiqi confronting a Level Six Speed Elent Zombie.
"Okay,"
Lin Xiuyuan realized now wasn’t the ti for deliberation and imdiately joined Su Jin to assist...
At dawn, the four mbers of Heart Talk Team and Kou Ning stood atop the abandoned rooftop, fortunate to witness the sunrise.
The sun seed closer to the earth than ever before; the previously described ’setting sun like blood’ aptly described this newly born sun. Though it was only five in the morning, this blood-orange sunrise was already dazzlingly bright.
"Let’s head back,"
Lu Hao said, as the five stood atop the building for only a mont before zombies gathered beneath them.
An already sowhat exhausted Lin Xiuyuan nodded, took a swig of water, and said, "Let’s go, tired, sleepy, and hungry."
"It’s not so bad, I’m just hungry, hehe,"
Kou Ning jumped down from the high steps, following the four downstairs...
Yao Rui hadn’t expected the Heart Talk Team to move the night of her task assignnt, and even hunted two Level Eight Mutated Zombies, plus over a dozen Level Seven Mutated Zombies. The countless crystal cores on the table were also visible evidence.
Learning that only five of them were dispatched, Yao Rui was even more amazed.
In general, Special Ability Users of the sa level confronting the sa level of zombies was already evenly matched, but how did just five people manage to kill so many mutated zombies overnight without a scratch?
However, seeing that these individuals showed no signs of pride, Yao Rui temporarily suppressed her shock:
"If possible, I hope you all can assist our city in the coming days, and the mission rewards will remain as previously stated."
D City base is relatively large, and with Ren Yingjie and Pei Yuan also guiding the base’s planting and weaponry technologies these days, Liang Wei and Wei Junhao won’t leave quickly. Accepting an additional mission won’t affect the progress of the previous mission.
"We can, we’ll do our best,"
Su Jin replied.
