Chapter 425 The Situation is Bizarre

The members of the Dawn Squad went to Shangguan City to hunt zombies.

Currently, the zombies in Shangguan City are the most powerful. Due to the previous Black Cube, the zombies in the central area of ​​Shangguan City have reached the strength of level five or six, and even the zombies in the surrounding areas are at level two or three or above.

Normally, when people with superpowers come to hunt zombies for crystal cores, they only stay around the city's outskirts and rarely go to the city's central area.

These evolved zombies, some of which are comparable to zombie kings, are almost certain to die once they are surrounded by a horde of zombies.

The city, which had gradually fallen silent as the zombies continued to evolve, is now bustling with activity again.

On the thick snowdrifts, zombies wandered aimlessly. Groups of superhumans from Dawn Base came to Shangguan City to hunt down the zombies on a large scale.

While acquiring crystal cores, they can also hone the combat skills of the superhumans.

The members of the Dawn Squad are now mostly at level seven. Because they have been living too comfortably at the Dawn Base for some time, none of them have been able to advance to level eight.

They wanted to hone their skills, but dealing with level two or three zombies on the outskirts of the city was definitely not an option.

They need to fight their way into the central area to face level five or six, even more powerful zombies.

The team of more than ten people slowly made their way towards the central area along the snow-covered streets.

Tao Yarong's vines strangled the dense horde of zombies around her. "Qin Nianshu, control your powers. Don't try to control the zombies. Let them attack freely. Take weapons like swords and fight them hand-to-hand as much as possible. Only in this way can you unleash your potential."

"Understood." Qin Nianshu breathed a deep sigh of relief, releasing her control over the zombies. Several zombies in front of her rushed towards her with incredible speed.

Qin Nianshu quickly took out an axe from her card space and chopped it straight at the zombie in front of her.

She was short, so she could only cut up the zombie's chest.

"Be careful." Lulu, who was standing nearby, anticipated the zombie attack and swung her longsword to deal with the other zombies around Qin Nianshu.

Ye Sangyu brandished a machete and hacked at the zombies, saying, "Kill them without worry. If anything happens, I can turn back time. As long as I'm here, you have countless lives. Go ahead and fight!"

Lei Zhe was unleashing his superpowers recklessly. "After I clear my superpowers, I will fight the zombies again. I will fight to the death and survive. I don't believe I can't reach level eight."

Lu Yu shouted, "Let's give it our all! It's rare for the base commander to need us, so we absolutely can't hold him back!"

Luo Xiangchen looked miserable. "I came to Dawn Base to enjoy life. Why did you have to take me with you? I don't want to fight. I just want to go back and farm, water the flowers. Life is so comfortable."

Qiu Zhiyi chuckled, "You're dreaming. Your superpower is so strong, how can you not use it? Let's kill the system first, then you can talk about enjoying yourself. Otherwise, this world might be destroyed, and what's the point of enjoying yourself then?"

The surrounding zombies were very dense, crawling and surging towards them in the several meters of snow.

The evolved zombies are very agile and extremely fast; some of them are so fast that you can only see their shadows when they run.

Such powerful zombies, swarming in dense hordes, put immense pressure on even the level seven ability users, forcing them to use their abilities to resist.

As they killed one group of enemies around them, another group would surge in, an endless and inexhaustible struggle. The Dawn Squad was completely engulfed in a bitter battle.

When their powers are depleted, they drink a power-enhancing liquid to restore them, unleash another devastating attack, and then drink another power-enhancing liquid.

This process is repeated time and again, pushing the body to its limits to unleash its potential.

When they get hungry, they hide inside the defensive perimeter to eat something and continue fighting.

They fought tirelessly against countless hordes of zombies for three days. Lei Zhe excitedly shouted, "I think I've reached level eight! I'm exhausted, but I've finally reached level eight!"

He felt he had never been so tired before. His superpowers were repeatedly depleted and replenished, and he fought tirelessly until he finally reached level eight.

They killed piles and piles of zombie corpses on the ground.

Anjiewen exclaimed with delight, "Great! We finally see hope! Let's keep going. The more exhausted we are, the more we push our bodies to the limit. We'll be closer to a breakthrough!"

The Dawn Squad, which had been somewhat demoralized, regained its spirits and fought with even greater fervor.

But at that moment, the endless stream of zombies that were used to launch attacks suddenly stopped.

They seemed to have been paused for a moment, frozen in place, motionless, instantly frozen in place.

Looking at the suddenly quiet horde of zombies, Ye Sangyu asked in confusion, "What's going on? Did Qin Nianshu control them?"

Qin Nianshu shrugged, "I didn't. They stopped on their own."

Tao Yarong looked around and saw that all the zombies, whether near or far, were still, and even the roars of the distant zombies had stopped, as if the whole city had fallen silent.

Lulu carefully poked the zombie in front of her with her longsword. The zombie just swayed in place and remained standing in the same position without making any move.

"Could they have frozen to death?"

Luo Xiangchen shook his head. "Impossible. Zombies don't freeze. This situation is very strange. Something is probably about to happen."

As he was speaking, the zombies suddenly moved, but instead of continuing to attack them.

Instead, they all turned around and faced one direction, and then walked together in that direction.

They walked right past the Dawn Squad, completely ignoring them, and kept heading in one direction, looking rather impatient.

Lei Zhe frowned. "What's going on? Why aren't the zombies eating us, a bunch of fresh, living flesh and blood? Why are they all heading in one direction? What's going on, a zombie gathering?"

Tao Yarong sensed something was wrong. "That's the direction of our Dawn Base."

Jiang Yuan flew straight into the sky, saying, "Wait for me, let me see what's going on."

He continued to ascend, looking around.

The wind and snow are very strong now, obscuring visibility, and everything around us is a white expanse.

But amidst the white expanse, it seemed as if patches of dark shadows were moving.

Jiang Yuan couldn't see clearly, so he flew closer to take a look and discovered that the moving black shadows were hordes of zombies moving through the deep snow.

They were all heading towards Dawn Base.

Looking at the dark figures moving in the distance, it wasn't just zombies from Shangguan City; many other zombies from different cities were also surging towards this direction.

This is only what he can see. What about other areas that he can't see? Are there also hordes of zombies coming from there?

As the shadows converged, their numbers reached a terrifying level.
