Chapter 84: Warning! Class B Zombie!
Chapter 84: Warning! Class B Zombie!
Lan Siruo glared at the zombies surrounding her, flashing her cute and shiny fangs.
She posed with claws outstretched, resembling Wolverine's retractable and sharp claws from pre-apocalypse movies.
But no matter how Alex looked at it, he found her more cute than threatening.
There was hardly any sense of deterrence...
A Class C agile zombie roared and charged at Lan Siruo.
The other zombies also swarmed in from all directions.
Just as the severely injured Lan Siruo was about to be overwhelmed by the zombie horde...
Suddenly, a figure descended from the sky, wielding a flaming long-handled sword, swiftly slashing down four or five Class C agile zombies!
The Class C zombies stood no chance against the man's sword!
Alex's arrival immediately put the spider-like zombie on alert.
The Class C agile zombies, commanded by the spider-like zombie, also stopped their attacks.
"Lan Siruo, hello," Alex turned to look at Lan Siruo and greeted her with a smile.
Lan Siruo, head bowed, looked up at Alex, her fierce gaze suddenly softening.
But soon, her expression became twisted and pained, as if struggling to remember something.
Yet she couldn't recall anything.
She only remembered feeling a sense of familiarity and closeness towards the man before her.
Seeing Lan Siruo's expression, Alex thought of Coco's situation and could only helplessly shake his head.
"It seems like she, just like Coco, has become somewhat mentally impaired after turning into a mutant. It's likely that she's lost her previous memories."
"But this is better for me, easier to control them."
Alex muttered to himself, then turned his gaze towards the spider-like zombie.
This was the first time he had seen such a zombie!
Its body was composed entirely of the limbs and parts of other zombies, as if many zombies had been dissected and then reassembled.
The result was a grotesque and terrifying humanoid spider!
It looked quite disgusting.
[Beep beep beep... Class B spider-like zombie detected...]
[Warning: This type of zombie has extremely strong physical defense!]
[Warning: This type of zombie excels in psychic attacks, unbearable for those with mental attributes below 80!]
[Warning: This type of zombie can command other zombies!]
The system's alert tones made Alex perk up!
He hadn't expected his luck to be this good!
To encounter a Class B zombie!
Class B zombies were key to his breaking through the human barrier!
If he could kill this Class B zombie and then bury it, Alex's physical attributes would break through the shackles of human limitations.
He would become a superhuman.
And also acquire extraordinary skills!
This was incredibly tempting for Alex!
In such an apocalyptic world, what was most important?
Of course, it was great strength!
In the face of strength, nothing else mattered!
But seeing the red warning text, Alex's expression gradually became serious.
Although he was strong now, his opponent was a Class B zombie with psychic attack capabilities!
And his mental attribute was currently only at 85.
Though not susceptible to immediate mental breakdown from psychic attacks, he was still vulnerable to interference!
Alex wasn't sure if he could handle this Class B spider-like zombie.
As Alex cautiously observed the Class B spider-like zombie, it was also sizing up Alex!
It too felt threatened by Alex.
With a terrifying hiss, a sound emanated from the gaping maw of the Class B spider-like zombie.
A visible sound wave rushed towards Alex.
Alex felt a blur before his eyes, and his entire body wobbled unsteadily.
He even experienced a slight dizziness in his head.
Behind Alex, the cat-eared girl Lan Siruo fared even worse. Under the powerful psychic attack, she found it extremely difficult to even stand!
As Alex was momentarily distracted, the Class C agile zombies that were vigilantly waiting around him charged at him with incredible speed.
And the ordinary zombies, after the hissing sound, also began to converge towards the area!
This was the power of a Class B psychic zombie!!
Terrifying to this extent!
Even with Alex's current strength, he was still disturbed by it.
A mental attribute of 85, which was already elite among human mental attributes!
Plus Alex's strong physique!
Yet he was still disrupted by the psychic sound wave!
Alex struggled to suppress the dizziness in his brain, swinging his Sword of Sin to fend off the approaching Class C agile zombies.
However, his movements were significantly slower than before.
Facing continuous attacks from all sides and the zombies' standard suicidal fighting style,
Alex's body also sustained several cuts.
Blood flowed from Alex's wounds, sliding onto the Sword of Sin!
Anger filled Alex's eyes, turning into a frightening blood-red color!
This was the first time Alex had been injured by a zombie since he acquired the system!
This! Completely infuriated Alex!
"Hee-yah!!"
Alex slashed furiously several times, and the surrounding zombies were sliced en masse!
Finally, the flames of the Sword of Sin burst forth!
From the blade to the hilt, it all turned into a blood-red color!
Even Alex was engulfed in raging blood-red flames!!!
His blood-red gaze turned towards the Class B spider-like zombie!
Alex's figure suddenly transformed into a fleeting shadow of a slash!
He then leaped into the air!
"Sin! Evil! Judgment!!!"
The blood-red flames of the Sword of Sin erupted violently, carrying a tremendous force, and heavily struck the Class B spider-like zombie!
[Sinful Judgment: Triggers a wide-range soul strike that ignores all physical defenses.]
The Class B spider-like zombie opened its gaping mouth, letting out a heart-wrenching howl!
A visible sound wave burst forth!
"Hisss!!!"
The sound wave was instantly torn apart!
The Sword of Sin heavily descended!
The three heads of the Class B spider-like zombie simultaneously burst!
Its body was also cleaved into two by the Sword of Sin!
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom..." The sound of exploding heads came like a string of firecrackers!
Within the range covered by the blood-red flames.
The heads of a large group of zombies exploded!
Then they collapsed to the ground with a thud!
Alex landed lightly, taking a deep breath.
The blood-red flames on his body slowly receded.
The blade of the Sword of Sin once again turned into blue flames.
Just one strike, and all the zombies within a fifty-meter radius had their heads exploded and fell to the ground!
Even the Class B spider-like zombie could not withstand such a powerful strike!
Alex closed his eyes and rested for a moment, then collected the body of the Class B spider-like zombie into his spatial bag.
The remaining Class C zombies were also packed into the spatial bag one by one.
This time, the harvest was quite substantial.
Not only did he obtain the Class B spider-like zombie, but he also managed to gather more than thirty Class C zombies in one go!
After completing all this, Alex turned to look at the cat-eared girl, Lan Siruo, in the corner.
At this moment, Lan Siruo had fainted and lay on the ground, curled up like a sleeping kitten, in the corner.
When Alex unleashed the Sinful Judgment, Lan Siruo had retreated a distance.
It was this retreat that saved her life.
Sinful Judgment does not differentiate between friend and foe!
Anyone within the strike range would be indiscriminately harmed!
However, even though Lan Siruo was only affected by the periphery of Alex's Sinful Judgment, the mere impact was more than she could bear.
Alex walked over to Lan Siruo, bent down, and gently picked her up.
It was very soft and comfortable, like holding a large cat.
Alex carefully looked at Lan Siruo's face.
Apart from the addition of a pair of cat ears, there wasn't much change.
She was still as beautiful.
Even more so, the cat ears added a touch of cuteness and charm, giving her an even more appealing look.
Alex felt it added a unique flavor!
