Meanwhile, Cheng Zhen and his group entered the abandoned factory in the dark and immediately sensed that something was wrong.
The smell of blood is too strong!
It looked as if a massacre had just taken place during the day.
No, it's not daytime, it's more like... a massacre is taking place.
Cheng Zhen and Yu Fen are both Level 2 ability users, and their senses are more acute and intense than others.
The two exchanged a silent glance, quickly changed their plan, tightened their formation, and quietly advanced.
As they entered, the factory was completely empty. There were hardly any people or machines, as if it had been ransacked.
But the deeper you go, the stronger the smell of blood becomes.
They quickly crossed the first open space, but nothing was amiss. Yet, this only underscored that something was wrong.
Cheng Zhen quickly ran to the wall of the factory building, listened intently to the sounds inside, raised his hand to signal his teammates behind him to stop, and only after confirming that he could not hear any sounds from inside the wall did he give the order again: All advance.
He kicked open the door of a factory building, and a stench of blood and stench hit him, a gust of foul wind blowing directly onto his face.
It was a zombie, its gaping maw snapping down at him.
"Damn it!" Luckily, Cheng Zhen had his purification ability activated, so he wasn't suddenly bitten.
He was quite certain that he hadn't noticed anything unusual just now. If it wasn't a problem with his abilities, then the other party must be exceptionally capable!
There was danger inside the workshop, so they quickly retreated outside the factory.
But then, out of nowhere, a group of zombies suddenly appeared outside the workshop.
Yu Fen quickly noticed something was wrong. He leaned closer to Cheng Zhen and whispered, "Boss, these zombies are strange."
Cheng Zhen also noticed: "Tell everyone to be careful."
It's more than just strange.
That's quite unusual!
They look like zombies, yet they retain human sanity!
Most importantly, judging from their clothing, they must have been soldiers before!
They obeyed one person's command, forming an encirclement formation, armed with firearms, all pointing their guns at the intruders.
They weren't wearing oxygen masks, which means they no longer needed oxygen!
"Are you human or ghost?" Cheng Zhen withdrew his purification power, which conveniently protected their group.
With the situation ahead unknown, he had to use his powers sparingly.
"Hahaha!" The leader, who was the first to attack Cheng Zhen, laughed loudly, his voice full of energy, but it sounded different from ordinary people.
"We are neither human nor ghost."
He fired immediately after speaking, but he showed no surprise when the bullet was stopped by the protective shield of the purification ability.
It seems that the shot just now was merely a test.
He was indeed testing the waters. At this moment, he looked at Cheng Zhen with great admiration and covetousness. He put away his bloodthirsty and murderous aura and signaled the other zombies to calm down.
"What are you doing here?" he asked with a slight smile, trying his best to appear friendly, but it still seemed very fake.
"Oh, I see. Are you here looking for supplies?" He didn't need to answer and continued talking on his own.
"You guys were right."
He laughed heartily for a while, then winked and waved to Cheng Zhen, "Do you want to join us? I guarantee you'll have plenty to eat and wear, and you won't have to suffer from the oxygen-deprived apocalypse anymore."
"Isn't that dead?" Yu Fen muttered, his gun already cocked.
The man was very annoyed by Yu Fen's interruption. He glanced at Yu Fen sharply, and someone next to him immediately fired a shot at him.
But the bullet still didn't hit anyone; it was deflected and fell down just a palm's distance from Yu Fen.
Not only did the man's eyes light up, but the zombies around him also showed expressions of surprise and then delight!
"What kind of ability is this?" The man looked on with obvious desire, approaching step by step. "This ability is amazing, I love it!"
Cheng Zhen had been observing him and was now basically certain: "You are zombies who have retained human consciousness!"
Once he was sure it wasn't a friend, he aimed directly at the other person and fired.
But the man quickly dodged to the side, avoiding the bullet in an instant.
"Oh shit!"
Yu Fen was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but curse.
Cheng Zhen was also quite surprised. The zombies he encountered in the wild were mostly a little faster than normal people in terms of reaction speed, which was based on their bloodthirsty instincts.
Even wild animals, no matter how fast they move, generally cannot avoid bullet attacks.
But this person's speed is no less than Cheng Zhen's skill level!
Enraged by Yu Fen's shot, the man suddenly turned around and swiftly attacked Cheng Zhen. Almost simultaneously, the other zombie subordinates also launched an attack, surrounding and assaulting Yu Fen and his group.
Three to four zombies attack one superhuman, so break them up and defeat them one by one!
Cheng Zhen sneered: "Not bad tactics!"
“I think so too.” The man was not at all worried that he had seen through him; in fact, he was quite proud.
So what if they saw through him? In terms of individual combat skills, these superhumans are no match for his zombie soldiers.
His prediction was correct, but unfortunately, the information was outdated, and he underestimated the true strength of Yu Fen and Cheng Zhen.
They are all level two ability users, and they can easily handle ten basic-level zombies.
Thus, the team, which had been forced to split into smaller, smaller units, quickly reunited as a cohesive unit thanks to their combined efforts.
The zombies lay dead on the ground, and the man, with a severed arm and serious injuries, said with a ferocious expression, "I didn't realize you were all level two ability users!"
Cheng Zhen snorted coldly: "Enough nonsense! Tell me honestly, what exactly is going on between you and Zhu Sha City?"
Since this is the supply base of Cinnabar City, he doesn't believe they have no connection with Cinnabar City. But if they really do have a connection, what does that mean...?
Even the usually easygoing and carefree Yu Fen couldn't help but frown. If the zombie virus spreads among humans, it will inevitably be a major disaster for humanity!
"Want to know?" The man suddenly narrowed his eyes and gave a sinister smile.
"We'll talk about this when you're still alive!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly turned around, slipped into the factory, and disappeared without a trace.
"You run fast!" Yu Fen was about to chase after them, but Cheng Zhen stopped him.
"Be careful, it might be a trap."
It's nighttime now, and the factory is pitch black. You can't see anything. Even if there's an ambush in the dark, they might not be able to spot it in time.
As the group approached the factory entrance, Yu Fen threw out a flare, revealing that the factory was empty except for a row of zombies standing against the wall at the very back, each holding a gun, seemingly waiting for them to get close so they could be riddled with bullets!
"Get down!"
Cheng Zhen shouted out that the power of the gunfire was too great; his purification ability was only at level one, and he couldn't withstand such power all at once.
What they fear most is that while they are carrying out the gunpowder attack, someone will launch a sneak attack from the other side!
"Find cover!"
