Chapter 45: Evolution
Ning Meng caressed her heart, and told Zhang Yan what happened in the No. 3 inpatient building with great fear-
"The inside of the No. 3 inpatient building was quite ordinary, but when we got to the third floor, we saw several rooms piled up with bones, which were human bones! And no matter how you look at it, they are all boiled or roasted bones...... Zombies, you can't do such a complicated cannibalistic method, right? ”
Liu Mang added with a cold face-
"I received two alarm signals from my colleagues, which only go on when I was dying, to alert my companions that they had been killed."
After speaking, Liu Mang quickly replenished the six people and the blade with spray, and then took out his gun and pointed at the side door of the second courtyard two hundred meters ahead-
"Zhang Yan, Yan Zhuo, Bai Lan, Zheng Ziye, Ning Meng, the five of you go first! I continued on my mission. I had to see my colleagues' bodies to be sure they were dead, or I would regret it for the rest of my life. ”
Originally, Zhang Yan didn't have a good impression of this Liu Mang, and felt that he was too stubborn, but at this moment, she felt that Liu Mang was really a great person.
Zhang Yan sighed and shook her head:
"You don't know Wang Xiaosha, she is a second-level ability, and you alone are not her opponent at all."
Liu Mang looked at Zhang Yan with questioning eyes:
"Level 2 Adept?"
Zhang Yan didn't want to continue to hide it, and told him the secret frankly:
"After the Adeptus consumes about a hundred crystal nuclei, there is a chance to mutate into a Level 2 Adept. Moreover, she is the girlfriend of the second-level zombie leader, although she is a healthy person, she can integrate into the zombie society, and she herself is also a cannibalistic pervert, and the bones you see are probably eaten by her. ”
Liu Mang's eyes became sharper when he looked at Zhang Yan.
Ning Meng also frowned, wondering why Zhang Yan knew so many things.
But, none of them asked, because they had seen a terrible picture-
Dozens of "giants" and "lizards" are flocking to them from all directions!
Zhang Yan's eyes lit up with a raging fire:
"We can't run away, let's kill."
After speaking, Zhang Yan turned on her ability, with two knives in hand, to kill a giant zombie that was more difficult to deal with!
Seeing this picture, Bai Lan and Ning Meng both gasped, Bai Lan was so frightened that she was sifting chaff, and Ning Meng's face turned a little pale.
Ning Meng was a pure healing ability, and she didn't have any self-protection ability at all, so Liu Mang quickly used her fire ability to draw a circle for Ning Meng and protect her in the flames.
After drawing the circle, Liu Mang used his flame ability to conjure up a flaming longbow and shoot a flaming arrow at the giant zombies in the distance.
Yan Zhuo used his spiritual force field to influence everyone present, and used the method of spiritual suggestion to give them positive strength, making them more brave and calm.
Even after Bai Lan received this hint, she became a lot braver, and silently rushed to the front to block the zombies.
Zheng Ziye first calmed the blade and gave it an order to wait in place, telling it to stay by Yan Zhuo, Liu Mang, and Ning Meng's side and not run around.
Blade obediently sat in place, looking at Zheng Ziye in confusion, and Zheng Ziye quickly rushed towards a giant and froze it into ice.
It's a battle with a sense of urgency.
Although Zhang Yan and the others are already veterans, they can deal with at least two or three zombies by themselves, but in the face of the endless stream of second-level zombies, they still feel very difficult.
The second-level zombies fell one by one, and Zhang Yan's battle circle shrank smaller and smaller.
It wasn't until the six people were crammed within five meters in diameter that they finally realized that it might not be possible to continue like this.
The close distance hindered them from casting their abilities on each other, and the second-level zombies surrounding them became denser and denser, forming an airtight encirclement!
Seeing that they had wasted so much effort and only killed less than a third of the second-level zombies, Zhang Yan gritted her teeth and ordered-
"Zheng Ziye! Hey, Blade Nucleus! Everyone stay away from the blade! ”
Although Blade is crazy and indistinguishable from friend and foe, if he wants to break through the encirclement now, he can only use the brute force of Blade.
Zheng Ziye rushed to the blade, picked it up from the ground, and then stuffed a crystal nucleus into its mouth.
After swallowing the crystal nucleus, Blade's body began to grow larger, and Zheng Ziye took advantage of this moment to throw it towards the zombie group.
The blade fell in an arc towards a giant zombie, and in mid-air, it completed its transformation from a dog to a wild boar.
Although Blade's intelligence deteriorates rapidly when it turns into a wild boar, it also has the advantage of being very belligerent and never dying!
Seeing a second-level zombie stretching out its long tongue towards him, the wild boar blade was furious, roared, and rushed towards the second-level zombie with red eyes!
Although the second-level zombie wrapped its tongue around the blade, it didn't stop it at all, and the speed of the blade was just as fast.
In the next moment, the second-level zombie was knocked to the ground by the wild boar's blade, and the wild boar's fangs were picked, and the belly of the lizard zombie was cut, and he stepped on the zombie's stomach a few times with his hooves, and the second-level zombie suddenly became bloody and lost its ability to fight.
Seeing the blood, the wild boar blade was like a child who had gotten a toy, and became more and more excited, and began to slaughter the second-level zombies frantically!
If there were no wise zombies like the green ghost Shi Xiaohong to command, the intelligence of ordinary second-level zombies would not be high, and now it is obvious that they were only given an order to attack, and there were no corresponding tactics, seeing that the wild boar blade was so fierce, these second-level zombies were also stunned.
The blade is rampage, crushing all the way, even the hard-hitting giant zombie is a fang-like goods for it!
The strength of the wild boar blade once again refreshed the cognition of Zhang Yan and others.
Seeing that the blade quickly cleared a passage for them, Zhang Yan rushed out after the blade without hesitation-
"Here! Come on! ”
Zhang Yan took the lead and rushed out, and at the same time, she kept stabbing and cleaning up the second-level zombies who tried to block the road again, and carried the most dangerous road opening work.
The remaining few people helped each other and quickly followed Zhang Yan out of the zombie encirclement.
Finally, several people escaped from the zombie encirclement.
And the problem of the second-level zombies is solved, but a new problem comes out-
Blade is eyeing them again!
After Blade turns into a wild boar, it forgets what happened when it was a dog, but it clearly remembers that the last time it mutated, it was Zhang Yan who subdued it.
It is not convinced!
The blade no longer attacked the second-level zombies, and roared towards Zhang Yan, overflowing with murderous aura.
Looking at it like that, if it doesn't kill Zhang Yan today, it will definitely not give up!
Zhang Yan complained bitterly in her heart, but she had no way to deal with it, so she could only use herself to drag the blade and strive to let the others go first.
Yan Zhuo tried to interfere with the blade with his spiritual power, but the species were different, they couldn't communicate at all, and Yan Zhuo naturally couldn't interfere with its spirit.
If he can upgrade to a second-level spiritual force field, he will be able to communicate across species!
Crystal nucleus, he needs crystal nucleus!
At this time, he didn't bother to care so much, and directly and rudely used his mental power to ask other comrades for crystal nuclei-
"Each of you only needs to keep five crystal nuclei on you, and hand in all the rest!"
Under Yan Zhuo's spiritual orders, Bai Lan, Zheng Ziye, Ning Meng, and Liu Mang obediently handed over the crystal nucleus they owned to Yan Zhuo.
Fourteen pieces of Bailan, twelve pieces of Zheng Ziye, eleven pieces of Liu Mang, and nine pieces of Ning Meng.
Forty-six, plus Yan Zhuo himself had fourteen, for a total of sixty crystal nuclei.
It stands to reason that this is not enough, and under normal circumstances, the ability needs to slowly consume the power of a hundred crystal nuclei in order to be able to increase their ability level to level two.
Counting the seventeen crystal nuclei that Yan Zhuo had consumed in the previous month or so, he was still twenty-three short.
However, there is also a shortcut to leveling up abilities that hurt your body - if you take sixty Crystal Nuclei in one sitting, and your body hasn't been overwhelmed by the ability energy, you have a good chance of leveling up.
This method is very risky, and the end result is either death or success in the promotion and becoming disabled.
And Yan Zhuo has a reincarnation card, and he dares to take this risk.
Swallowing the crystal nucleus in his hand, Yan Zhuo's eyes kept staring at Zhang Yan's direction.
That emaciated figure has been fighting with the boar blade strongly, trying to bring the boar blade to the zombies, how can he bear to watch her continue to fight alone?!
Sixty crystal nuclei quickly entered his stomach, and Yan Zhuo also used his mental force field to force the other four people to evacuate the second courtyard.
Yan Zhuo knew that where there were green ghosts, there must be Wang Xiaosha, using so many second-level zombies to deal with them, but without any tactical command, no matter how you look at it, it was Wang Xiaosha's job.
And Wang Xiaosha's target is naturally him and Zhang Yan, the two reincarnators.
Sure enough, even if the other four non-reincarnators had fled to the door, they didn't see the second-level zombies chasing them, and those second-level zombies were still surrounding Yan Zhuo and Zhang Yan, and it seemed that they would not stop until they were taken down.
And the reaction of the sixty crystal nuclei finally came.
Yan Zhuo felt as if there was a fire burning in his body, his whole body was in severe pain, his mouth was dry, and his consciousness began to drift.
Gritting his teeth, Yan Zhuo exerted the ability to heal the card, and a faint blue light emanated from his body.
He felt that his state should be similar to that of Blade after eating the boar crystal nucleus, the power that entered his body was too strong, urging his ability to become stronger in advance, but his body couldn't keep up with the progress, and it was very uncomfortable.
His brain also felt like it was about to explode, and all kinds of strange thoughts poured into his mind uncontrollably, messing up his thinking.
After dozens of times of destruction and healing, Yan Zhuo felt full of energy and completely sober.
Although the process made him feel painful, the time had only passed for more than ten seconds.
The mental force field was upgraded, and Yan Zhuo also healed the damaged parts of his body.
He withdrew the ability of the healing card, raised his head to look at Zhang Yan, and the corners of his mouth hooked a gentle arc.
