Black crows seemed to pour out from the gates of hell, densely packed and overwhelmingly surrounding the area.

These ominous birds circled and screeched in the air, their wings flapping rapidly, and when they opened their eyes, two bright red dots were visible.

This is no ordinary crow; it is a crow that has turned into a zombie.

What Xiao Jin saw from the sky at that time were them, and they were the ones that destroyed the helicopter.

Of course, if it were just zombie crows, Xiao Jin wouldn't necessarily have left. The real reason was that she discovered a high-level zombie crow among the flock of crows.

Its size was several times larger than the surrounding zombie crows, and it was surrounded by wind blades, clearly possessing wind-based superpowers.

This crow, already a dominant force in the skies after its zombie transformation, now possesses wind-based abilities, making it even more adept at its current state.

But this wasn't the only reason Xiao Jin was in a hurry to leave. The real reason was that Xiao Jin noticed something unusual in the clouds in the sky.

If she wasn't mistaken, the second wave of black rain was about to begin...

Those wind-element crows must be their leader.

Under its command, the remaining crows destroyed the helicopter and began attacking the humans below.

Some even recklessly crashed into moving vehicles, making a "thud" sound, and the vehicles on the road were shaken precariously by the impact.

Xiao Jin suddenly twisted the steering wheel, the tires screeching against the ground, sending up blinding sparks and emitting a sharp whistling sound.

Her face was expressionless as she frantically swerved left and right to dodge the zombies and crows surging towards her.

Some crows, oblivious to their own mortality, crashed into the windshield with a sharp "smack," leaving mottled bloodstains on the glass instantly.

Just as Xiao Jin had predicted, the sky darkened after they had walked for a while.

Although it was dark, Xiao Jin could still clearly see the dark, rolling clouds covering the sky, as black as ink, by the dim light of the car headlights.

"What is this?" Liu Xin, standing to the side, looked through the blood-stained window with a solemn expression that also revealed her anxiety and unease.

Duan Xiaofan pressed himself against the seat, his small body trembling slightly.

He didn't know why he had to leave home in such a hurry at night, but the heavy feeling made him realize that everything could never go back to the peaceful and carefree days of the past.

Duan Ziyue gripped her mother's arm tightly, her bright eyes fixed intently on the window.

Just then, a black droplet, carrying an ominous aura, silently landed on the car window with a soft "plop".

She froze for a moment, and then fear quickly spread across her eyes.

"Yes, it's Black Rain! It's back again!" Duan Ziyue's voice trembled slightly.

Last time, the black rain brought them zombies; what will it bring this time?

Xiao Jin remained silent, instead relentlessly slamming on the accelerator. The SUV raced along the obstacle-strewn asphalt road like a wild horse.

But then they saw that the zombie crows around the car seemed to be suddenly awakened by an invisible force.

Their red eyes flashed in the night, and a chilling change began to spread across these crows, their bodies visibly trembling.

The feathers stood upright, their glossy black color turning into an ominous dark purple, and their size more than doubled, making them look even more terrifying and ferocious.

Immediately, their attack became fierce!

On the road, several pedestrians were hurrying along, completely unaware of the impending disaster.

Just as they were in a hurry to escape, a sudden downpour of black rain began.

The moment the raindrops touched the pedestrians, within five seconds, their bodies began to spasm, their eyes quickly lost their light, and were replaced by a deathly gray.

They opened their mouths wide, letting out a silent roar, then collapsed to the ground, transforming into new zombies.

Xiao Jin and the others were inside the car with the windows closed, so the chaos outside didn't affect them.

The lights inside the car were dim, but everyone's hearts were filled with coldness.

Xiao Jin's hands were firmly on the steering wheel, while Liu Xin and the others squeezed into the back seat, their faces full of relief at surviving the ordeal.

We really should thank Xiao Jin. If she hadn't made the decisive decision to leave, my family would probably have been found by the zombies who came after us by now!

However, what Xiao Jin didn't say was that things were actually much worse than Liu Xin and Duan Chenghong had imagined.

They only realized that more new zombies were appearing, but they didn't really understand the significance of this black rain.

In reality, after being irrigated by the second black rain, the zombies will undergo a second evolution under the nourishment of this power.

Just like the crows outside, Xiao Jin noticed that a few of them had become particularly unusual.

Originally just ordinary zombie crows, after being washed by the rain, their wings began to grow sharp bone blades, their beaks became sharper, and there were faint fluctuations of supernatural power around them.

This is a sign that it is about to evolve into a level 2 zombie crow.

Once they evolve, their strength, speed, and aggression will all experience a qualitative leap.

Moreover, these are not isolated cases.

Whether it's wild beasts deep in the jungle, stray cats and dogs on the city streets, or even those originally docile domestic animals, they could all be turned into bloodthirsty monsters in this catastrophe.

They are born with a more acute sense of smell and hearing than zombies, enabling them to approach silently and launch a fatal attack before humans even realize it.

Having talked about animals, what about plants?

Although Xiao Jin didn't see the black rain in her previous life, zombie animals and zombie plants did actually appear.
