Qiao An approached Lin Xi and the others with great hospitality, attempting to strike up a conversation when the ground suddenly shook. "Bang, bang, bang," "Roar, roar!" Everyone turned to see a dense swarm of zombies approaching, their numbers overwhelming like a tidal wave. They exuded a foul stench, their voices echoing with a chilling roar. Some had broken limbs, others had hideous features, and some were rotting, looking utterly terrifying. Lin Xi and his companions immediately became alert, drawing their weapons to prepare for the impending danger. Qiao An was also startled by the scene, but he quickly recovered and nervously stared at Lin Xi and the others, resisting the urge to turn and run. The Extermination Squad was the most powerful psychic in the base. They always returned with a full load, having annihilated countless zombie hordes. This time, they should be able to do the same. If so, wouldn't they have a share of those crystal cores? If the Extermination Squad perished alongside the zombies, even better: all the crystal cores would be his! Qiao An's eyes flashed with brilliance, and his mind was calculating rapidly. "Oh my god, I'm going to die, so many zombies!" Li Ke screamed, but his eyes were eager to try, and each zombie seemed to have turned into a crystal core waiting for him to pick up. Lin Xi calmly observed the situation around him. The arrival of this group of zombies was strange. They were obviously just some low-level zombies, but why did he vaguely feel a strong energy fluctuation? He closed his eyes and activated his psychic ability to feel the situation in front of him more deeply. Seeing this, Su Jinge immediately protected Lin Xi. Li Ke, Zheng Bin and Wang Ju also stepped forward to protect him in the middle. Zhou Linlin saw this scene and lowered her head, not knowing what to think. "Hiss!" Lin Xi seemed to have received a shock, and her body shook and took a step back. Su Jinge held his back firmly, her face filled with worry. "Lin Xi, are you okay?" Lin Xi calmly observed the situation. This wave of zombies was strange. They were clearly just low-level zombies, but he could vaguely sense a powerful energy fluctuation. Could someone have deliberately lured these zombies here? Lin Xi speculated. He frowned, feeling increasingly suspicious about the zombies' appearance. His psychic abilities had been blocked earlier. It seemed some of these zombies shared his psychic abilities. "Let's get out of here first," Lin Xi said. Everyone nodded and immediately got into the car to retreat. Qiao An and the others, sensing the situation was not right, had already gotten in. After all, they were certainly no match for the zombies that even Lin Xi feared. However, before they had gone far, they were blocked by a group of zombies. These zombies looked even more powerful than before, emitting a strong, rancid stench. Lin Xi frowned, and the crowd in the car suddenly tensed up, drawing their weapons and preparing to fight. At this moment, Lin Xi suddenly noticed that one of the zombies seemed a little different. A strange light flickered in its eyes, as if it had its own consciousness. Lin Xi's heart sank, realizing that things might be more serious than he imagined. Could this be the Zombie King? No, that's not right. Its aura was a little weak. It seemed to be just a high-level zombie that could control zombies. (I'll update 1,000 words first, and the rest will be caught up tomorrow. I'm still writing in this chapter. I'll probably write two more chapters before this world ends. I'm exhausted, both physically and mentally. I'm going to sleep. Good night, my dears.)
