Ssssskreee——
Yu Yuan watched the red-dressed woman several ters away, her head thrown back in a long shriek as violent air currents swirled around her, a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes.
——【Shrieker】
Elite Infected, possessing abilities for rapid movent, sonic wave attacks, and powerful wind-sweeping.
Her weakness was also crystal clear in Yu Yuan's eyes: the throat area.
"3...2...1, now!"
Timing it perfectly, in the very last second of the Shrieker's sustained shriek, Yu Yuan was already charging toward her, wielding that Rare-tier great hamr.
The mont the Shrieker's sound ceased, Yu Yuan had already swung the hamr, smashing it hard into her knee joint.
First hamr strike to the leg, to prevent it from running.
Imdiately, the second hamr followed the montum of the first, arcing straight into the Shrieker's mouth.
Second hamr strike to the mouth, to stop it from screaming.
After those two hamr blows, the Shrieker was already sent flying backward. Yu Yuan closed the distance, the third hamr poised and ready to descend.
"Take this!"
Thud-thud-thud......
The Shrieker's mangled head, severed from its neck, shot against the wall and then rolled to a stop at Yu Yuan's feet.
The three Elite Infected and the ordinary Infected on the 7th floor of Freedom Tower had been completely cleared out by him.
Watching the Dissipating Spirituality progress bar on his Positioning Watch reach 91%, Yu Yuan's gaze shifted toward the deepest part of the 7th floor.
On the Combat Detector, a massive red dot was flashing in that direction.
That was the final target of this floor—the Leader-level Infected.
Yu Yuan collected the items dropped from the Shrieker's body, and from it, he fished out a brass key.
He then opened the two large equipnt boxes it was guarding. Unfortunately, they only contained Excellent-grade equipnt.
——【Freedom Tower 12th Floor Safe Key】
"12th floor safe!"
If he rembered correctly, the notebook recorded that the 12th floor also had a Spirituality Zone. Yu Yuan guessed this key was probably for sothing inside there.
He raised an eyebrow.
Storing the key in the Rabbit Ring, he noted the spiritual organ on its body was the Adam's apple, which had unfortunately been smashed to pulp by Yu Yuan's hamr. A real pity.
Checking the ti, there was 1 hour and 20 minutes left until the trial ended.
He needed to hurry.
Yu Yuan imdiately ran toward the location of that Leader-level Infected.
This was an office lobby. An Infected creature, its body towering at two ters tall, sat cross-legged on the floor.
This Infected's physique had clearly undergone mutation, its muscles knotted and bulging, wearing a yellow jacket that was obviously too small.
Yu Yuan guessed this was the person who recorded the USB drive video, because right behind this Leader-level Infected was the location of the 7th floor's Spirituality Zone.
Yu Yuan tightened his grip on the great hamr in his hand.
"Then let's go!"
He was still in his 【Concealnt】 state. Carrying the hamr, he approached from behind the Leader. The Combat Detector showed it only had one weak point: the head, and even that area's color was much fainter.
Clearly, the defense of a Leader-level Infected was on a completely different level compared to the previous Elite Infected.
Without further hesitation, Yu Yuan swung the great hamr, gritting his teeth as he aid the blow at the Leader-level Infected's head.
*CLANG~~~*
Unlike the feeling of hamring the previous Infected, Yu Yuan felt as if he had smashed into a wall of alloy.
The great hamr rebounded directly, the powerful recoil force numbing both his hands.
*Not good!* Yu Yuan thought inwardly.
His body retreated backward. A gust of fierce wind swept past his face as the Leader Infected roared, rising to its feet and glaring at Yu Yuan, letting out a bellow.
Looking at the clearly dented area on the opponent's head, Yu Yuan frowned slightly.
This Leader-level Infected's defense was simply absurd. As it stood up, its head was no longer such an easy target.
Right at that mont, a sudden sense of foreboding flashed through Yu Yuan's heart.
He instinctively retreated several ters backward.
He saw the Leader Infected leap high into the air, pouncing toward him, its hands raised high before smashing down onto the ground.
*BOOM——*
The ground within a two-ter radius cracked like a spider's web. The floor shook and tiles churned.
Yu Yuan felt a wave of fearful relief.
If he had still been in that spot, he probably would have been directly knocked to the ground by the shockwave.
However, he quickly thought of a way to attack the Leader's head.
For the following period, Yu Yuan began a guerrilla war with the Leader Infected.
The Leader Infected's strength and defense were ridiculously strong. Any casual strike could crack the floor. Yu Yuan was grateful he had cleared out all the other Infected on the 7th floor beforehand.
Otherwise, with this much commotion, all the Infected on this floor would have been awakened.
As for the Infected on the floors below, Yu Yuan couldn't afford to worry about them now.
Yu Yuan's strategy was mobile maneuvering, focusing on hamring the hell out of the Leader's two good legs.
That's right, this was Yu Yuan's plan.
Each ti, he would bait the Leader into attacking him, then seize the chance to hamr the side of its knee joints on those two legs with all his might.
Perseverance prevailed.
After Yu Yuan had smashed its right leg's knee joint who-knows-how-many tis.
He finally heard that *CRACK!*
With a furious roar, the Leader Infected dropped to one knee, collapsing to the ground. The next steps beca much simpler.
After the second leg was also broken, he just started hamring away at that bald head.
The entire floor echoed with the *CLANG-CLANG-CLANG-CLANG* sounds, like a blacksmith's forge!
Finally.
As an extrely dense stream of dissipating spirituality was absorbed by the Positioning Watch.
The Pure Spirituality progress bar instantly reached 100%.
Then, on the watch face, a crystal resembling a diamond appeared, except this crystal was a pale blue color, exceptionally beautiful.
【Congratulations! Obtained Pure Spirit Crystal ×1】
After the spirit crystal condensed, the progress bar reset to zero and started again, only stopping when it reached 7%.
——16%
This single Leader-level Infected had provided Yu Yuan with a full 16% of dissipating pure spirituality.
Looking at the pale blue crystal condensed on his Positioning Watch, a flicker of a smile appeared in Yu Yuan's eyes.
Not easy!
He had finally succeeded in condensing one.
The rewards didn't stop there. In the Civilization Illustrated Book, information about the Leader Infected appeared. Its na was 【Abhorrent Breather】.
The spiritual organ was still its blood, but this ti, the blood obtained was Rare-grade 【Alkaline Blood】.
This reminded Yu Yuan of the 【Acidic Blood】 he obtained before.
"Just don't know what effects these blood types have!" He used a syringe to draw the blood, then stored it in a dicine bottle he found from the Blood Lab.
Now wasn't the ti to study this. Killing this Leader Infected had consud too much ti.
Only 37 minutes remained until the trial ended now. He had to hurry.
From the Leader Infected's body, Yu Yuan found a key card and a safe key, both for the 7th floor Manager's Office.
Holding the key card and key, Yu Yuan quickly walked to the front of the tightly shut room, looking at the sign with the now-stained characters 【Manager's Office】.
He swiped the key card directly.
*Beep-beep-beep...*
The sound of a restriction being lifted sounded. The door was opened by Yu Yuan. The card reader sparked, destroying itself along with the key card.
It was a perfectly normal office.
A desk, a bookshelf, a sofa, a coffee table, and behind the desk sat a safe.
There were also so survival supplies in the room. On the desk were spread-out maps and a notebook, as if soone had been living and working here.
Just as Yu Yuan was about to examine these things, a sudden alarm broadcast sounded throughout the 7th floor.
A row of half-ter-long pipes descended from the ceiling, connected to nozzles.
And in the office area outside the office, rows of pipes had already descended...
【Attention! Freedom Tower 7th floor will release nerve gas. All personnel, please evacuate!】
【Attention! Freedom Tower...】
【60 seconds remaining until nerve gas release.......】
