Chapter 944: Three Fourth Rank Mutant
Boom!!】
「Boom!! 」
One ahead, one behind, two black shadows descended at high speed, finally slamming heavily onto the ground.
The huge impact sound was like a truck falling from high altitude, also smashing many of the Corpse Horde that had rushed over upon hearing it.
The ground sank, collapsed.
A few members of the squad that had just sneaked into the Government Building were shocked, listening to the huge sound coming from outside.
Like conjoined centipedes, the few people hiding in the ventilation duct exchanged a terrified glance.
What's going on? That Third Fourth Rank Mutant has spotted them!?
Chirp chirp.
The leading Captain's face turned pale; after quickly crawling to an interface, he took a deep breath and hurriedly looked at the teammates behind him.
"Gangzi!"
"Quickly go out and take a look!"
"What the hell happened!?"
The floor where the Equipment is located is already very close; under the aura of the Third Fourth Rank Mutant, the whole building has hardly any Zombies lingering here.
If something really happened, they still have time to flee back to the sewers.
But they are really unwilling.
Listening to the Captain's words, the Awakened One crawling at the back had a grim expression.
He is the only one in the team who can briefly disguise himself as an Awakened One; if that Third Fourth Rank Mutant really comes to kill them, only he has a chance to avoid attracting its attention.
After struggling for a moment, he dared not say more.
Carefully jumping out of the ventilation duct, like a 100-meter sprint, he swiftly rushed to the window and peered out.
With limited vision, he hastily scanned the outside scene; through the dust-covered glass, a distant sight instantly made his eyes widen.
In his imagination, the scene of that Third Fourth Rank Mutant charging into the building did not exist.
On the contrary, that Third Fourth Rank Mutant was raising its body, looking off into the distance like a lizard, poised to jump at any moment.
And those two booming sounds came from the plaza in front of the Government Building.
Only four humans stood in the middle of the Corpse Tide.
Looking at the crater smashed out, he seemed to think of something, his whole body shuddering.
Just now there was an aerial roar, and someone landed.
This is... jumped down from high altitude!?
Or directly jumped into the middle of the Corpse Tide!?
This is too arrogant... what's the difference from courting death!?
No time to think; only saw a large group of Zombies howling as they charged toward that frail figure, the impact of tens of thousands of Zombies bringing immense oppressive pressure.
Looking at the Awakened One outside the window, his heart tightened; he almost saw these guys being completely devoured alive by the Zombies.
However, the next second.
Only saw what appeared to be an ordinary person; the little girl standing beside a young man suddenly spread her arms, and a dim yellow energy flow instantly appeared around her.
Like dust gathering, a vortex filled with deathly energy instantly formed.
In an instant, as if piercing heaven and earth, above the high-speed spinning Death Qi Vortex, an illusory figure appeared.
Ripples spread.
The howling Zombies charging forward suddenly froze in place, just like a movie frame being paused.
One passed to ten, ten to a hundred, a hundred to a thousand.
In just a short second, the tens of thousands of Zombies that had rushed in first were all swept over by the ripples.
Those pairs of scarlet-eyed Zombies, with their blood‑filled mouths wide open, actually turned around and charged toward the Zombies behind them; looking at the scene, it was practically an army of the undead.
Zombie vs. zombie combat began, with each Zombie frantically slamming into its companions.
Fearless of pain, fearless of death.
Vast amounts of rotting flesh were swallowed down, looking at the Corpse Horde gone mad, this Awakened One stood there as if seeing a ghost, mouth agape.
This is... what ability!?
Before he could even gasp in astonishment, the several Lickers that followed, trampling on Zombies as they charged, all turned in unison like machines and likewise struck at the Zombies.
Limbs flew everywhere, the crisp sound of breaking bones rising and falling.
In just a short three seconds, the massive black tide of Zombies actually began to tear at each other like ants.
And in his eyes, that young man who seemed to be courting death was merely strolling leisurely toward the Government Building.
The Zombies, feared by countless Awakened Ones, were thus easily dispelled.
"Gangzi!?"
"What are you staring at!? What did you see!?"
Unable to wait any longer, the Squad Captain who had poked his head out of the ventilation duct urged him urgently.
Looking at that dazed figure standing before the window, he felt like kicking him in the butt.
What time is it now, still standing there speechless?
"That Third Fourth Rank Mutant went berserk!?"
Listening to the Captain's question, the Awakened One by the window stiffly turned his head, his expression strange:
"Captain, it seems someone is coming..."
"What!?"
Not really understanding the meaning, not bothering with anything else, the Squad Captain burst out of the duct and ran straight to the window.
He hurriedly looked toward the window, staring intently.
Like the team members' initial reaction, the squad leader's mouth grew wider and wider; after a second, his eyes were filled with disbelief.
There was no other reason.
Only see not far away the zombie tide strangely forming a huge circle, tightly "protecting" a burly man, a youth, and a little girl within it; like a millstone, the zombies began to clash with the zombie tide rushing from all directions.
Moreover, whenever a mutant charged into the millstone, it was instantly strangely controlled and turned to rush at its own kind.
"This is... this is!!"
"Control zombies!!"
Unbelievable, hard to believe.
Watching the three people as if on a spring outing, even if the squad leader reacted slowly, he realized this was probably the ability spoken of in legends.
In the world, there actually exists such an Awakened One!?
No time to marvel further.
The others hiding in the ventilation duct, hearing the captain and Gangzi's exclamations, couldn't help but hurriedly jump down.
Seven heads, crowded like gourds at the bedside, all looking toward the window.
The next second, an even more scene that shattered their cognition appeared before their eyes.
Only see, at the other end of the zombie tide they had ignored, a ring-shaped shock suddenly erupted.
A figure suddenly shot up into midair, hovering and standing.
Looking at the back view of a figure bearing a long sword, clad in a full set of black armor, head raised, gazing at the monster hanging on the building.
In an instant, a piercing dark-purple light shot from the figure's hand, striking toward the third-rank mutant.
Ignoring the zombies, ignoring the third-rank.
Even though they were not a short distance away, those leaning by the window could still feel the confidence and domineering aura emanating from that back view.
This is, provoking that monster!?
As if thinking of something, the squad leader's eyes flashed with shock.
Daring to act in the midst of the zombie tide, able to float... daring to provoke the third-rank mutant as if seeking death...
This is a third-rank Awakened One!?
As third-ranks are extremely rare, existing only in chat channels and major forces, this was still the first time he had seen one with his own eyes.
"Captain, that person..."
"Are you going to fight that monster!?"
The Awakened One called Gangzi stared fixedly at that back view.
For some reason, a strong sense of absurdity rose in his heart.
"Roar!!"
No longer enduring.
In an instant, the building shook violently; see, the huge mutant hanging outside the building instantly shattered the outer layer, turning into a black shadow that rushed toward Lin An in midair.
