Chapter 167: Chapter 155, Soul Sense_1
A huge fire rose, distorting the air in its scorching heat.
Wu Heng followed the direction Xiao Xiao was pointing and vaguely saw a green passenger bus through the gaps in the thick smoke and flames.
An advertisement for men’s health on the side of the tourist bus.
There were also several hundred zombies surrounding the bus.
Gyrating and swaying where they stood, they were guarding the vicinity like sentinels.
“Let me take a look!” Wu Heng said.
“Oh!”
Xiao Xiao acquiesced and dove back into his body.
At the same time, the images of Xiao Xiao’s route started to appear in his mind.
Firstly, there was a dense crowd of zombies.
Then, the scene changed and Xiao Xiao entered the passenger bus.
The interior of the bus was bloodstained.
Rotten flesh and severed limbs hung from the luggage racks.
The “Big Head” zombie Wu Heng sought was sitting in the driver’s seat.
Its head was too bloated to be real, and from where it sat in the driver’s seat, it was peering out at the battlefield through the grimy windscreen.
When the huge flames flared up.
The Big Head zombie startled and tried to flee.
But upon realizing that the fire was merely fierce and posed no immediate danger, it returned to the driver’s seat.
Continuing to observe the distant occurrences, it controlled the zombies for battle.
After watching, Wu Heng let Xiao Xiao out again to keep an eye on their surroundings. If there was any danger, she was to notify him immediately.
He began to regard the passenger bus in the horde of zombies and contemplate ways to handle the situation.
Considering the current number of zombies.
Letting ‘Bawudong’ sneak in and kill them may risk getting surrounded and beaten up.
Even if the Big Head zombie was killed, it wouldn’t be worth the cost if Bawudong was sacrificed in the process.
He pondered for a moment then told the ‘Big Head skeleton’, “Call Lieyi over.”
Thump thump thump~!
A towering Beastman skeleton carrying a sniper rifle walked over.
A gigantic skeleton hound followed by its side.
Wu Heng pointed at the bus in the distance and said, “Inside that bus, there’s a zombie with a gigantic head. Find a way to kill it.”
Lieyi glanced at the targeted location, then gestured towards the rooftop of a nearby apartment building, indicating that he needed to get there.
Wu Heng nodded and told several nearby Beastman skeletons, “Protect Lieyi.”
These few Beastman skeletons moved beside Lieyi at once.
Soon, the skeletons quickly approached the apartment building, opened the iron gate, and went inside.
They quickly reached the rooftop, where the sniper rifle was set up and pointed towards the distance.
…
The battle at the main battlefield continued unabated.
Zombies and skeletons collided in an unending clash.
Like two tidal waves, they fought and tangled ceaselessly.
Bam~!
A deafening gunshot suddenly echoed from the rooftop.
Smash~!
The windscreen of the bus in the distance suddenly shattered.
A bullet went through the Big Head zombie’s skull. The bloated head erupted as if a watermelon had been split open.
Gore splattered in every direction.
The body of the Big Head zombie fell backward.
It hit the backrest of the driver’s seat, then ricocheted against the steering wheel.
The zombies guarding the outside began to grow restless.
They searched all around for the enemy.
Even with a hearty flow of ooze from its head, the Big Head zombie made an attempt to leave the driver’s seat and escape.
Bang Bang~!
Then, two more shots rang out.
They hit the huge head and its comparatively smaller body in quick succession.
This time, the whole body went limp and collapsed.
And the zombies guarding outside, appeared to have lost their control and started to attack with the rest of the horde.
The zombie horde at the forefront began to disintegrate.
They lost their senses and charged through the sea of fire.
They were engulfed by the fierce flames and fell amidst struggles and screams.
Dead~!
Other level two Mutated Zombies might not have died so easily from bullet wounds.
But the Big Head zombie differed from normal Mutated Zombies. Its distinguishing feature was its control over the zombie horde; its physical body and mobility were its weaknesses.
Dying only after two shots to the head could be considered remarkably tenacious.
Before Wu Heng could react, the zombie horde’s location was in chaos.
The remaining second level Mutated Zombies on the periphery hastily ran towards the location of the bus.
A giant zombie smashed the front windscreen to a pulp and dragged out the body of the Big Head zombie.
Before it could do anything else.
It was sent flying by another giant zombie.
The body of the Big Head zombie also fell to the ground.
A ‘Scary Claw Monster’ Zombie, which looked like a Gecko, came diving from afar. Its single hand hoisted up the body and scurried up an exterior building wall.
Two giant zombies let out enraged roars and grabbed some nearby zombies, throwing them at the upper floor in an attempt to knock down the Scary Clawed Monster.
Wu Heng stared wide-eyed at the unfolding events.
He originally thought these zombies would come to the aid.
Now, it appeared that they were snatching for Big Head zombie’s body.
The Gecko zombie climbed to a height of six floors. It instantly twisted off the head from Big Head zombie’s body and its sharp claws delved into the neck.
After rummaging for a bit.
It pulled out a massive clump of unrecognizable matter and immediately tossed it into its mouth.
After chewing it heedlessly a couple of times, it swallowed.
They are looking for the Corpse Core.
Seeing this, Wu Heng finally understood what they were searching for.
They weren’t fighting over the body; they were aiming for the Corpse Core in the brain.
Damn! The Corpse Core.
Eaten by a zombie.
The Corpse Core from the Big Head zombie.
I killed the beast, and you ate it!
The internal warfare among level two Mutated Zombies made the entire horde even more chaotic.
