Taking his hand off the big rat's head, Ao Xin moved the tables and chairs that were blocking the store door, knocked to death several zombies that were crowding in front of the door, and then dragged these zombies into the store and placed them in front of the big rat.

"You must be hungry, try it."

He "invited" the big rat to eat in a gentle tone, just like feeding a pet.

But the big rat still didn't dare to move.

Bang!

He slapped the rat on the head and said, "Eat!"

"Squeak~Squeak~"

The big rat bared its teeth and screamed. It did not understand human nature and did not understand why it was being beaten.

After being slapped again, it seemed to vaguely understand that the person in front of it wanted to eat these rotten pieces of meat himself.

He tried to take a bite, and a strange energy rushed into its body.

The big rat was stunned for a moment, then began to tear the zombie's flesh apart frantically.

"Yeah, very good."

Ao Xin stood quietly beside it and watched it eat, while Ao Chen followed closely behind it, not daring to leave.

"Brother, why are you feeding it zombie meat?"

A group of big rats are eating zombies. Isn’t this scene super disgusting?

At this time, even Yuan Fei, who was sitting alone in the corner, came to Ao Xin cautiously.

In fact, a group of rats as big as fat cats filled the entire restaurant, and the scene was a bit scary.

The mouse gnawed on the zombie's body parts. Its stomach seemed like a bottomless pit. It ate a whole thigh but its belly didn't even swell.

Finally, when it had eaten both thighs, its body doubled in size again!

The rat king, who was as big as a medium-sized mastiff, bared his fangs, with a fierce light in his pupils, no longer as well-behaved and obedient as before.

“Squeak!”

At the command of the Rat King, the rats, frightened by the domineering aura, immediately jumped up and pounced on Ao Xin and others.

The Rat King even rushed straight towards Ao Xin's throat, trying to bite it off.

What Azure Dragon? At this moment, the Rat King felt that he could slay the dragon!

"A beast is still a beast after all. He has no gratitude at all."

Ao Xin smiled faintly, and at the same time, he exerted force with his hands, his ten fingers like hooks, crushing the big rat's head. He exhaled a breath of hot air, and all the rats were burned to ashes.

“Squeak! Squeak!”

The Rat King, whose skull was crushed, was still struggling, moving his body around and trying to bite Ao Xin.

“Crack!”

The dragon claws closed and crushed the rat's head alive, leaving only a pool of blood and a small crystal in the palm of his hand.

"Huh? What is this?"

Ao Chen looked at the crystal in his hand curiously. If it wasn't covered in the blood and brain matter of a rat, she would have taken it and taken a closer look.

"Is it the crystal core commonly seen in novels?"

When the rats were completely wiped out, Ao Chen regained his usual liveliness: "Will eating this make me stronger?"

"Eh~~ This thing is disgusting, I don't want to eat it!"

Ao Xin casually pulled out a tablecloth and wiped the crystal clean.

This crystal is very small, only the size of a fingernail, and has an octahedral structure. There is a thin thread floating in the center of the crystal, and I don’t know what it is.

"It can be considered a crystal core, but it's different from the crystal core you know."

Ao Xin explained: "This thing is only useful to those of us with special abilities. It's called the Awakening Crystal. It can help those with special abilities improve their fruit abilities and accelerate their fruit awakening."

"As for improving your strength, you still have to rely on fighting to cultivate your domineering aura. This thing is useless."

Awakening crystals require a living creature to devour zombie flesh. Those who are infected with the zombie virus but do not transform into zombies will have a chance of having this kind of crystal born in their brains.

Generally speaking, the leader of a biological group has a higher probability of giving birth to crystals.

In previous lives, when people discovered this thing, they began to find ways to raise various creatures and feed them chunks of zombie flesh in order to achieve the purpose of artificial production.

There are even some insane organizations that use humans as petri dishes!

Humans are also part of the biological world, so naturally they can also produce this kind of crystal nucleus!

There are also crazy people who want to increase their strength by producing crystal cores. However, this kind of crystal core will devour the brain and distort the soul.

Not only does it cause genetic mutations and make them no longer human, but even their souls are no longer themselves, becoming a new and more dangerous species!

They are called: Crystal People!

Crystal people evolve by devouring zombies, and the flesh and blood of their own kind also have a strong attraction to them.

Of course, the crystallization of the crystal man's brain is also a great tonic for those with special abilities. If the two sides meet, they will fight to the death.

He explained to Ao Chen the purpose of the awakening crystals, "We should also build a cultivation base in the future. It will not only speed up the development of the fruit, but also make it a best-seller when sold."

This is also the reason why he wants to build up his power, not just to protect his family, there are many things that he cannot do alone.

Now that we have Feng Kun's group of migrant workers, we can consider establishing a primary base.

After resting, the three of them walked out of the house. Even though he had killed so many zombies on the streets, zombies soon roamed again on the cleared streets. The number of zombies in the city did not decrease at all.

On both sides of the street, you can occasionally see people fighting against some buildings. The apocalypse has been going on for more than half a month, and the annihilation of the military has made everyone realize that in the apocalypse, they can only rely on themselves.

They have to find ways to obtain supplies, kill zombies to gain points, and after gaining points, they have to fight to improve their strength.

Suddenly, the streets became chaotic. Not only were people running into the houses, but even the zombies seemed to have seen their natural enemies and fled in all directions.

Those are zombies without any intelligence. There is only one possibility for this situation to occur.

That means a higher level zombie has appeared. Under the pressure, it does not allow these low level zombies to appear around it.

"roar!"

The roar resounded through the sky. Ao Xin was very familiar with this voice. Even Ao Chen immediately recognized the source of the voice.

"Brother! It's a zombie!"

Not far away, a zombie with stiff limbs that could only jump forward was driving a large number of zombies to hunt down humans.

Those who relied on their cleverness to trap the zombies in the terrain and then killed them, the obstacles in front of them were instantly shattered.

Even the hard reinforced concrete walls were easily penetrated by zombies.

The metal sheets of cars are as thin as paper, and the thick telephone poles are as fragile as biscuits.

The appearance of zombies has turned the buildings that humans previously relied on for survival into mere decorations.

Screams rang out again and panic spread, but where could these ordinary people escape to?

The houses were destroyed and the streets were full of zombies. They soon became food for the zombies or were infected and became part of the zombie army.

Ao Xin held up a steel whip and said to Ao Chen, "Stand far away and protect yourself. If you are in danger, just escape underground."

Ao Chen nodded, she was already familiar with this process.

A loud dragon roar sounded, and Ao Xin turned into a dragon man, holding a steel whip in his hand, and strode towards the zombies.
