His hands did not stop, electrocuting wherever the zombies were most numerous.
He never expected Xu Qian to venture out alone.
She was not an impulsive person; she must have thought it through before going, but he was still worried, what if she got injured by a zombie...
The consequences were unimaginable.
Zhong Yang's previously calm expression changed drastically. He drew the dual pistols from his waist, killing two zombies with each shot, directly headshotting them.
The people around were stunned. After killing for so long, they still had to chase and kill zombies?
Weren't they tired?
Li Ping, who was resting nearby, also noticed the situation. He got up and asked, "What's wrong?"
Mei Yuebai pursed her lips, unwilling to talk to him. If it weren't for him, Xu Qian wouldn't have stayed in this broken place.
Zhong Yang replied urgently, "Xu Qian is inside!"
Li Ping's expression changed slightly. He turned back and ordered the base personnel to continue killing zombies.
Everyone slumped on the ground, motionless. They had been fighting for a long time and were exhausted. No one wanted to go.
Seeing their inaction, his dark eyes gradually turned cold. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Not going? Get out of the base, all of you."
Just as Xu Qian had said, Feiteng Base indeed needed a good overhaul. In this state, no one could survive the apocalypse.
The crowd slowly got up from the ground, forced by pressure to continue killing zombies.
They swung their weapons as if cutting tofu, effortlessly. The zombies, as if they had lost their minds, charged straight ahead. They didn't even resist when being cut.
When they were tired of slashing, some ability users hurled their powers into the zombie hordes.
Suddenly, light flared, illuminating the dark sky to a faint white.
Meanwhile, Xu Qian was fighting a zombie nurse. Her crystal core was exceptionally hard, not as easy to deal with as those of ability users.
Xu Qian tightened her grip on her knife and slashed fiercely at the zombie.
At that instant, a sharp, piercing pain surged into her mind. It was another zombie!
[Enhanced attack activated.]
Xu Qian gritted her teeth and slashed at the zombie nurse. The head, wearing a zombie cap, instantly fell to the ground.
The pain in her head did not diminish at all with its death; it intensified.
She slightly closed her eyes, searching for the other zombie.
Because the two zombies were quite far apart, she had intended to deal with this one first.
She hadn't expected the other zombie to sense the danger of this one and come to its aid.
After searching for a long time, Xu Qian finally found the other zombie outside the building, its position having moved to outside the base.
She crouched down and first dug out the zombie nurse's crystal core. The crystal core of a psychic zombie was a great tonic for her.
Xu Qian grasped the crystal core, and it vanished from her palm.
A surge of power instantly flooded her body. She could feel her mental strength grow, though not by much.
She was a Level 2 ability user. To upgrade to Level 3, she would need a large number of Level 2 crystal cores or a certain number of Level 3 crystal cores.
Currently, even Level 2 zombies were rare, and Level 3 zombies wouldn't appear anytime soon. Her ability could only stagnate.
Xu Qian walked through the horde expressionlessly. She saw a plump zombie leaning against the eaves, motionless.
It was bare-chested, with pale, flabby flesh hanging over its belly. It wore boxer shorts on its lower body.
A pair of orange-red eyes flickered with a deep glow.
Xu Qian narrowed her eyes. Orange-red eyes?
Such a well-fed physique; it must have eaten a lot of people normally.
This zombie was extremely rare, nearing Level 3.
After absorbing this zombie's crystal core, her ability would likely advance further.
