Chapter 329: Grappling
Before the blood could spill to the ground, Shadow Tiger stomped heavily on the ground and charged towards the second militant, decapitating him a moment later.
After only three or four seconds, the beast had already crossed the rear line of defense and killed two militants and two soul evolutionaries!
You know, those militants and evolutionaries are still struggling to deal with thousands of beasts!
Although they were able to suppress the charge of the herd with dense firepower, the herd was so large that some fish slipped through the net.
There were more than 400 Evolutionaries in the beginning, with about 600 to 800 armed men, however, although the battle only lasted about 30 minutes, that number had dropped to around 250. There were almost no casualties among the armed men, thanks to the sacrifices of the Soul Evolvers, who worked to stop the seemingly unstoppable army of beasts.
Of course, with about half of the Soul Evolvers killed, those who were still holding on and fighting fiercely were already much stronger than they were before the battle broke out thirty minutes ago. If the average level used to be around 5, now the average level is more than 14.
This is a reward for surviving a head-to-head battle with dangerous creatures. Bai Ze has been experiencing such battles since the first day of the apocalypse, which is why he is so powerful.
But strength often goes hand in hand with death.
If you fail, death will embrace you whether you want it or not...... However, if you can survive this deadly situation, you will definitely become a dragon and phoenix among people.
This is exactly what soul evolvers experience. In the frenzy and lust of battle, feeling yourself stronger each time you draw the most insignificant soul power from your enemies makes these people completely oblivious to the dangers they face.
Get stronger!
In this sense, humans are no different from beasts.
Sou!
Shadow Tiger instantly ripped off the heads of the ten armed men.
Everyone knew that the monster they faced was much more powerful, but at the same time, they could also feel that if they could defeat it, they could become even stronger.
It's a pity that although the lowest level among them is only seventeen, and two of them have reached level twenty, these soul evolutionaries are still far from the power of first-order beasts.
The speed of the Shadow Tiger appeared in the middle of the group of evolutionaries like an invisible shadow, and its claws swung violently from side to side, beheading four of them.
Before the head rolled to the ground, the beast pounced, opened its mouth, and bit the head of another evolutionary.
Skull fragments and flesh stained the ground red, and an extremely unpleasant smell filled the air, mixed with the smell of blood washed away by the storm.
"Damn brute!" ”
A white-haired old man roared angrily, regardless of his own safety, rushed forward and grabbed the monster's neck: "Gu Tao! Kill it! Even if you die here, you will avenge your leader! ”
The old man was one of the previous survivors. Before Bai Ze arrived, his life was worse than hell, and he couldn't even eat enough, let alone live with dignity. However, after Bai Ze took power, this old man named Lao Zhi was not only able to eat well, but also got the dignity of living.
It was Bai Ze who gave him his current life, so Lao Zhi followed him with all his heart.
Shadow Tiger trembled violently and tried to break free, and even wanted to bite Lao Zhi. But the old man clung to the tiger's neck and didn't let go.
Even so, the violent shaking shook the blood in his body and began to churn. Lao Zhi couldn't help but open his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood...... But not only did he not let go of the tiger, but he clung to it even tighter!
Gu Tao is a burly middle-aged man. He is a husband and a father at the same time.
In the past, he and his family had to rely on relief food provided by the previous base government. His son is malnourished, and his and his wife's health is getting worse day by day.
However, like Lao Zhi, after the arrival of Bai Ze and others, Gu Tao's life has undergone earth-shaking changes.
This Gu Tao is the person who queued up to receive the new relief food under the supervision of Shangguan Bingxue a few days ago.
On the same day, Gu Tao rushed to the registration office of the front-line combatants. Although he was scared at first, he soon discovered that zombies were not as scary as they looked, and when his level reached a certain threshold, even low-level unranked beasts were no longer a big challenge for him.
Now, not only does he have a hearty meal every day, but his family has moved from the west side of the base to the east side.
Moved from a former wooden house to a luxury villa in the privileged area of the base!
Today, Gu Tao has reached level 20.
From an ordinary weak person who is not respected, to a powerful soul evolver that everyone looks up to!
"Die!"
A piercing roar erupted from the thunder, and he raised a bone knife and slashed at the head of the beast that had stopped moving for a moment.
Bang!
The heavy bone knife struck the Shadow Tiger's skull, causing the beast to be slightly startled. Blood began to flow from the wound, but Gu Tao's strength and the power of the weapon were not enough to break through the Shadow Tiger's natural defense, although the Shadow Tiger was an agile beast with low defensive power, but the first-order beast was a first-order beast after all.
After such a long battle, that blow almost exhausted all of Gu Tao's physical strength. So, his bone knife, which weighed 100 kilograms, finally fell to the ground and fell to his knees.
As the internal injuries got worse and worse, Lao Zhi also began to lose the strength of his grip.
"Damn..."
The corners of their lips hooked up a wry smile, and they looked at each other with a hint of sadness. Lao Zhi didn't have the strength anymore, fell to the ground, and rolled to Gu Tao's side.
Looking at the tiger staggering and shaking his head, Lao Zhi spoke: "I am fifty-five years old this year, and I have exchanged my old life for the lives of more than 300 beasts, and this life is worth it!" ”
Gu Tao nodded. Although he felt sad that he would never see his family again after his death, he firmly believed that as long as human beings could get out of this seemingly bottomless abyss and follow Bai Ze and Shangguan Bingxue, then his son and wife would be able to survive safely.
Shadow Tiger finally recovered from the vertigo just now, and stared angrily at the two people in front of him. The beast roared, its mouth reeking of the blood that had taken its life, and then lunged forward.
Just as Gu Tao and Lao Zhi's heads were about to be lifted away by the claws of the first-order monster, a lightning bolt different from the sky crackled in the distance, and in the blink of an eye, a figure appeared in front of them.
Although Gu Tao was taller, he felt in his heart that the figure that appeared in front of him at the last moment was as tall as a tower. This man's back seems to be as wide as being able to block the wind, and his shoulders seem to be able to carry heaven and earth.
Even if they couldn't see this person's face, just looking at the black armor made Gu Tao and Lao Zhi's hearts pound.
However, while the two men had recognized the man, the beast had not.
The beast continued to rush forward furiously, opening its jaws and aiming at the neck of the comer.
It's a pity that for the shadow tiger who crushed everyone, his speed was as slow as a snail compared to the person in front of him.
The man stretched out his right hand, and the two saw a flash of light, and the head of the beast flew up in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.
