Chapter 81 Must Take Risks! (Second Update)

Eight speedsters were running desperately, and behind them, hundreds of zombies were chasing them closely. At first glance, they were so densely packed that it made people feel a chill in their hearts.

The morale of everyone watching this scene, which had just been boosted, suddenly dropped.

Captain Zhou saw that the situation was not good, and immediately shouted: "What are you all standing there for? Everyone, be alert! Grab your weapons and prepare to fight!"

Fang Yuxin glanced at the trees on both sides of the road, and immediately released his spiritual energy into them. Immediately, the trees began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye. Branches quickly stretched out and dropped from midair, spreading like snakes towards the direction of the zombies.

Seeing that the distance between the 8 speedsters and the zombies was getting shorter and shorter, and they were about to be caught up, a thunderous gunshot rang out, shooting the zombies in front. The 8 speedsters ran faster, and in a blink of an eye, they had distanced themselves from the zombies.

At the same time, the tree 'snakes' on the ground bypassed them and quickly stood up behind them, crisscrossing and interweaving into a huge tree net, blocking the zombie group.

Because there were too many zombies, Fang Yuxin hesitated for a moment and did not make a cage, but chose a tree net like this to block the zombies. As long as the net was strong enough, the zombies would not be able to pass through and cause harm to them.

Captain Zhou didn't expect Fang Yuxin to react so quickly. He looked at her with a higher opinion and then gave the order: "Now! Start fighting while the zombies can't get over!"

In an instant, dense gunfire rang out. The first to attack were the soldiers standing on the roof of the car. Rows of bullets were fired, immediately killing dozens of zombies.

Then, Fang Yuyang released the wind blade, and other superpowers also began their attacks. Those ordinary people who could not attack from a distance stood guard on the side. If a zombie crossed the tree net from the side, they would rush up the mountain to chop it down.

After Fang Yuxin reinforced the tree net, he rushed to the side of the road, grabbed a vine and quickly climbed to the top of a roadside tree. He used the vines to quickly shuttle between the trees and went directly to the back of the zombie group. He also used the vines to weave a giant net to block the back of the zombie group.

Upon seeing this, Captain Zhou ordered a team of people to go around the roof of the shop to the rear of the zombie group and attack them from the front and back.

Fang Yuyang brought his family and the five mercenaries who were willing to join. They followed Fang Yuyang's example and came to Fang Yuxin by leaning on the vines, killing zombies frantically.

When Fang Yuxin saw them coming, he deliberately cast a small spell to make some strong vines hang down from the tree again. As long as someone was tired or defeated, they only needed to pull the vines hard, and the vines would shrink quickly and bring him to the treetop for protection.

The five mercenaries had originally intended to show off, which was why they had followed Fang Yuyang here. After learning about this method, they had no more worries and fought even more bravely.

Although the others admired their courage, they did not dare to rush into the zombie group like them, and only fought with the zombies on the periphery. In this way, although Yongsheng's team did not have submachine guns, they killed almost half of the zombies and successfully harvested a large number of crystal cores.

With their assistance, and the submachine guns in the hands of the soldiers, the battle did not last too long and was over in less than half an hour.

Because of the existence of the tree net, no one was killed, and even fewer people were injured. On the contrary, the five mercenaries who wanted to join Yongsheng's team had the most scars on their bodies. In order to show their performance, they did not retreat immediately after being injured, or ask Fang Yuxin to treat them. They all knew that Fang Yuxin had to reinforce the tree net and maintain the vines, which consumed a lot of energy, so they would not selfishly let her consume her superpowers.

Therefore, unless the situation is urgent, they are unwilling to retreat even if they are injured, which leads to a large number of scratches on their bodies from the zombies.

Fortunately, these zombies were all primary zombies, and the zombie virus they carried had no effect on them, the superpowers. After the battle, Fang Yuxin healed their injuries.

This victory excited everyone, including the young man who had just joined. It was the first time for him to see such a fighting method, and the first time he found that humans could kill zombies so easily. This gave rise to an irresistible sense of pride in his heart, and at the same time, it also made him more determined to join the Yongsheng Mercenary Team!

He has seen that although these soldiers are powerful, they rely on the power of submachine guns. Only Fang Yuyang and Fang Yuxin are truly powerful superpowers! He has a hunch that as long as he joins the Yongsheng Mercenary Team, he can become even stronger!

When everyone dug out the crystal core, Captain Zhou asked the fire-type psychic to clean up the battlefield. At the same time, he called the eight speed psychics who were responsible for the investigation, and also called the Fang brothers and sisters to his side, and then asked: "After you went to that residential building, did you find anything?"

When the eight speedsters heard him ask this, they seemed to think of some terrible scene, and their faces turned very ugly. One of them said, "Captain Zhou, that person is right, the residential building is indeed surrounded by thousands of zombies! And when we arrived, the residential building was already occupied by zombies. We saw a small number of survivors still struggling, and we wanted to save them, but as soon as we opened fire, hundreds of zombies surrounded us! Seeing that the situation was not good, we had to retreat first, but we didn't expect these zombies to chase us! It was as if they wanted to kill us to silence us."

The more he spoke, the uglier his expression became.

Similarly, Captain Zhou's face was also quite ugly. After hearing these words, he thought of the zombie leader mentioned by Fang Yuxin. Obviously, a zombie leader appeared among this group of zombies!

His mood suddenly became heavy. This news must be reported to his superiors. At the same time, it would be best if someone could be sent to find and kill the leader! Otherwise, the situation would only get worse. The survivors in the city would be in greater danger, and those who entered the city would also be in greater danger!

Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked at Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang. In this team, the strength of these two people really impressed him! He became the captain not only because his position in the army was not low, but also because of his outstanding strength! However, he found that the strength of this brother and sister was even better than his!

He was really surprised at first, but when he thought about their identities, he felt it was natural.

However, after thinking of Fang Yuxin's ability, he immediately extinguished the thought in his mind. Fang Yuxin is a rare healing ability user, and he has a feeling that her healing ability is stronger than other wood-type ability users! Such a person is a precious talent for the entire safe zone, and she must not be allowed to take risks!

So he called his deputy and ordered: "From now on, you will lead the team. Remember! You must bring the team back to the safe zone safely! After you return, remember to report the evolution of the superior zombies and the leader zombies as soon as possible!"

After he finished speaking, he asked someone to clear out a truck and then began to recruit a suicide squad to go with him to kill the zombie leader.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed.

No one wants to die if they can live. When they heard that it was a voluntary registration, no mercenary stood up. Instead, half of Captain Zhou's soldiers asked to go with him! This half of the people had followed Captain Zhou since before the end of the world, so they naturally had a different relationship with him. They were like brothers.

So when they heard that he was going to die, they all stood up.

Captain Zhou was a little hesitant. He also had his own selfish motives. In his opinion, these soldiers had been rigorously trained and had greater potential than those mercenaries. He naturally did not want them to die in vain.

However, he also understood that if he took these soldiers with him, he might have a 10% chance of killing the zombie leader, but if he took mercenaries with him, he might not even have a 10% chance!

Just when he was hesitating, Fang Yuxin stood up and said, "Captain Zhou, you are the one who led this team, so it is natural for you to lead it back. Since it is voluntary, why don't we let the Yongsheng Mercenary Team complete this task?"

Captain Zhou immediately frowned, his face full of disapproval: "No! This is too dangerous! You can't go! Miss Fang, you are a wood-type mutant, I hope your healing ability can help more people, please don't let your emotions get the better of you!"

Others also advised: "Yes, Miss Fang, it's too dangerous, you must not go!"

Fang Yuxin continued, "Everyone knows how dangerous the zombie leader is. Otherwise, Captain Zhou would not risk his life to get rid of it. If it doesn't die, everyone may suffer! Now that we have encountered this, we can't just ignore it and let it continue to grow! This is too dangerous, but someone has to do it. If it's not me, it will be someone else. Captain Zhou, who do you think is more confident among all the people present?"

Captain Zhou was speechless because of her question. He knew that Fang Yuxin was right, so from the beginning, he thought of letting Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang go. However, when he thought of Fang Yuxin's wood ability, he gave up this decision.

He didn't expect that Fang Yuxin would actually take the initiative to bring it up! He narrowed his eyes and looked at Fang Yuxin, wondering in his heart whether she was sacrificing her life for justice or had some other trump card?

Then, he looked at Fang Yuyang. He could see that Fang Yuyang cared a lot about his sister Fang Yuxin. He would definitely not let Fang Yuxin take any risks.

Fang Yuyang was indeed unwilling to let Fang Yuxin take risks, but he knew his sister. Unless Fang Yuxin was sure, she would never say such a thing! He thought of the strength of his family and felt that he should take a risk. So he said, "Captain Zhou, my sister is right. Someone has to do this. Why not leave it to us?"

Captain Zhou was completely stunned. He didn't expect Fang Yuyang to agree! Didn't he know how dangerous this matter was? Or did they really have another trump card in their hands?

Thinking of this, a hint of suspicion flashed across Captain Zhou's eyes.
