Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse

Chapter 73 - 73 Wind Element Zombie

Chapter 73: Chapter 73 Wind Element Zombie

In the past few days, Su Jin and Lu Hao, along with a group of people, had almost cleaned up all the zombies wandering the nearby alleys, and their family members’ strength had greatly improved. This included Yin Chengtian and Shi Jin, both of whom had a foundation in martial arts and had become very efficient and decisive in killing zombies after these days of training.

“Sister Xiao Jin, can we walk faster?”

Mao Qiqi felt a sense of urgency, possibly because the red dot in her mind was getting closer.

“What’s wrong, Qiqi? Are you feeling unwell?” Su Jin asked with concern.

They had just cleared out the zombies in a nearby park, and Mao Qiqi was now able to help pick up crystal cores. Su Jin thought she might have been disgusted by the content inside the zombies’ heads.

“It’s not that… It’s like something is coming towards us…”

Mao Qiqi wasn’t sure, so she whispered this sentence into Su Jin’s ear.

For some reason, after hearing these words, Su Jin felt goosebumps all over.

Seeing that her family had already reached the park’s entrance, Su Jin unhesitatingly had everyone stop.

“What’s the matter, Su Jin?” Lin Xiuyuan asked.

The whole family stopped, and Yin Chengtian and Shi Jin, who were following them, didn’t know why everyone had suddenly stopped moving.

“Qiqi, can you sense it?” Su Jin asked earnestly, squatting down.

“I don’t know, but I can see a red dot coming towards us,” she said. While they appeared as green dots, the appearance of red dots always gave her a sense of impending crisis.

“Which direction?” Su Jin asked without doubt.

Mao Qiqi pointed in the direction outside the park with her little hand, pleased that Sister Xiao Jin believed her.

“Everyone, be alert,”

After Su Jin finished speaking, she had everyone stand inside the stone wall next to the park’s gate. For aesthetic purposes, the stone wall was embedded with openwork wooden carved windows, through which the group could look outside.

“It’s very close,” Qiqi said, and at the same time, her sense of crisis was intensifying.

Looking through the openwork windows, they finally saw what was approaching. It was a very tall zombie, its body unlike any they had seen before — not covered in blood nor limbless.

Its skin was grayish-white, and faint muscle textures could be seen. The head was completely bald.

Su Jin knew it was a mutated zombie. As mutated zombies progressed to later stages, their hair would fall out, and they preferred to eat the brains of special ability users over flesh and blood. But why had this kind of zombie appeared so early?

The mutated zombie seemed to have discovered the group hiding behind the wall. With a roar, it swung a hand and instantly shredded half the stone wall!

It has Wind Ability!

Su Jin had everyone continue to stay behind the wall, preparing to confront what seemed to be a level three wind element zombie.

“Together,” Lu Hao grasped Su Jin’s wrist.

“Alright, I’ll draw its attention, and you seize the opportunity to kill it,” Su Jin quickly analyzed the situation and directed.

“Got it, be careful,”

The wind element zombie, seeing Su Jin and Lu Hao come out, shone with excitement in its eyes. It had recently been feeding on the brains of ordinary humans, but the brains of these special ability users were fatally attractive to it!

Su Jin brought out the vines in an attempt to bind the zombie, but it was incredibly agile and leaped away directly. Moreover, the wind blades it unleashed severed several parts of Su Jin’s vines!

Seeing the human before it falter, the wind element zombie decided to counterattack!

It even imbued its feet with wind ability, flying towards Su Jin!

Just as the wind element zombie’s hands were about to grab her head, Su Jin activated her special ability, and a myriad of vines instantly formed into a defense shield in front of her. The wind element zombie, failing to grab Su Jin and intending to jump again, instead stumbled and fell to the ground.

“Lu Hao, now!” Su Jin shouted.

Just as the wind element zombie tried to rise, Lu Hao descended from above and plunged his Ghost Hand Knife straight into its head.

It turned out that while forming the defense shield, Su Jin had sneakily extended a vine to entangle its feet.

The zombie had solely focused on grabbing Su Jin and failed to notice its feet, nor did it understand the saying of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. It was promptly finished by Lu Hao.

“That was cool, Su Jin,”

Lin Xiuyuan and the others walked out from behind the stone wall. The cooperation between these two was seamless.

Lu Hao, holding Su Jin’s hand with his left, used the tip of the knife to pry out a crystal core with his right.

“Auntie, trouble you,” Lu Hao said to Huang Yunxiang, who was walking over.

Huang Yunxiang nodded and cleaned the crystal core with her water element ability, revealing a cyan-colored crystal core before everyone.

“Wow, wow, wow, apprentice, this crystal core is better than any we’ve got before,” Nie Qing pushed past Lu Guanhai who was in front and came closer, drawn to the rich spiritual power within the core and felt a natural affinity for it.

“The crystal cores from special ability zombies are much more valuable than those from ordinary zombies, plus, this is a level three wind element crystal nucleus,” Su Jin smiled as she temporarily placed the crystal nucleus into her storage bag.

“By the way, Qiqi, you must have awakened a mental element special ability,” Su Jin recalled the important role little Qiqi had played just now.
