Chapter 11 Level 3 Zombies Collect Experimental Equipment
Ji An dodged suddenly, and Tang Ning behind him was completely exposed to the zombie's mouth. The zombie was not picky. If it couldn't bite Ji An, it would bite Tang Ning. It seemed that as long as it could bite one, it would be enough.
Tang Ning was not a weakling in battle, he picked up a small axe and chopped at the zombies. The zombies had thick skin and flesh, so he couldn't chop them down even after a few hits. The deep axe marks didn't hurt the zombies at all, just like the red marks left by being tickled.
At this moment, Ji An, who had dodged, stood on the wall on the left with his feet one in front and one behind. With the help of the force, he suddenly jumped up, raised the machete high, and chopped at the zombie's neck with all his strength.
The zombie's head fell to the ground and rolled away. The headless corpse shook twice and fell down with a bang.
Ji An walked around the zombies' bodies and entered the room. He quickly shone his flashlight over there. Through the brief illumination, he could tell that this should be a laboratory.
The lab tables were crooked, some were overturned, some were twisted, and the glass test tubes on them were scattered all over the place. There were many large lab equipments by the wall, and a refrigerator, in which some petri dishes could be vaguely seen.
While observing, Ji An quickly collected all the experimental equipment in front of him.
At this moment, Tangning's voice came from the doorway, which was first pleasantly surprised, then panicked, "Great, Mr. Ji, this zombie has a crystal core in its brain, and it's gold...Ah! Zombies, so many zombies!"
Tang Ning's voice was filled with fear and panic. Ji An had no choice but to give up half of the lab equipment he had collected and rush over to save her.
But when Ji An turned around, a zombie appeared in front of him, blocking his way.
Then there was a creaking sound, and another zombie appeared on Ji An's right side. Almost in the blink of an eye, Ji An was surrounded by zombies.
Without saying a word, Ji An picked up the machete and chopped at the head of the nearest zombie. With one slash, the machete chopped deeply into the zombie's head, and blood covered its face. The zombie shook his head but did not shake it off. This seemed to anger the zombie, and it whimpered even more angrily and stabbed at Ji An fiercely.
Ji An pulled it out, but it didn't move, and another zombie pounced on him.
Ji An clenched the machete embedded in the zombie's head with both hands, exerted force with his arms, lifted his feet off the ground, used the zombies as a fulcrum, and kicked them down one by one, forming a circle.
The zombie that Ji An used as a fulcrum turned around in a circle, looking confused and dazed for a moment. Then it seemed to understand something, and immediately bared its teeth like a dog, whining at Ji An, waving its arms at the same time, grabbing Ji An fiercely.
Ji An could only jump onto the experimental table nearby, exert force with his arms again, and this time he successfully pulled out the machete.
The other zombies that were kicked by him also stood up and staggered towards Ji An.
Ji An rolled down from the experimental table and kicked it. The experimental table crashed into the zombie, knocking over the zombie that had just climbed up.
The zombies were lying on the ground, howling.
The zombie whose head was chopped by Ji An was not hit. He looked at the zombies that were knocked over on both sides and it was as if he saw his big brother □□ whose subordinates were all knocked down. He felt very embarrassed.
He howled at the top of his lungs, spitting out saliva, and then suddenly jumped up high.
It was as if a heavy hammer hit Ji An's heart, making him feel heavy.
Ordinary zombies move slowly and have almost no thoughts. They only know to feed on flesh and blood, and they think about eating all day long.
Only evolved zombies have thoughts. The higher their level, the more complex their thoughts and the faster their actions.
This zombie obviously has simple thinking, and it seems to be the boss of these zombies. It is also very agile in its movements. It seems that its evolutionary level should be not low.
Thinking of this, Ji An gripped the machete tightly, ready to attack immediately.
But just when Ji An was extremely nervous, the zombie jumped higher and higher, and then because it jumped too high, it poked a hole in the ceiling.
Then, his head got stuck on the ceiling and couldn't get down.
This, this is embarrassing...
Ji An silently retracted the machete, jumped onto the experimental table, and jumped from one table to another until he reached the door. He took advantage of a zombie that had its back to him and was attacking Tang Ning and chopped off the zombie's head with his machete.
"Mr. Ji, you're here!" Tang Ning chopped the zombies while moving towards Ji An.
"We have to leave here immediately. Only after we get out can my special powers be put to best use." Ji An walked in front, slashing at the zombies' heads one after another, clearing a bloody path for Tang Ning.
"There must be more advanced zombies here. This is simply a breeding ground. Without humans entering, these zombies can only evolve by devouring each other." Ji An could imagine that these zombies have been devouring each other for seven years, and the remaining evolved zombies must be more difficult to deal with than the ones outside.
Fortunately, the first zombies to be alarmed were some ordinary zombies and low-level zombies. The two of them quickly broke out of the encirclement, rushed up the stairs, and returned to the ground.
Tang Ning tried to lock the door of the underground base, but was stopped by Ji An.
"You hide behind me." Ji An held an axe and faced the exit.
Within a few seconds, two zombies rushed up one after another. Ji An looked directly at one of the zombies, and that zombie immediately froze.
Tang Ning leaned half of his body out from behind Ji An, raised his knife, and chopped off the zombie's head.
Ji An almost immediately turned his eyes to another zombie, which had already reached the two of them. When their eyes met, the zombie immediately stiffened and did not move. The sharp blade fell, and the zombie's head rolled away.
Tang Ning was delighted and chased after the zombie to dig out the crystal core from its head, but Ji An stopped her and said, "Don't move. There will be more zombies coming out from behind. It's not safe."
As he was speaking, several evolved zombies rushed out.
These zombies passed by one by one, attracted by the smell of strangers they hadn't seen for a long time, and they all wanted to be the first to rush out and eat Ji An and his brains. Therefore, they were all stuck at the door and couldn't get out, baring their teeth at each other.
This gave Ji An an opportunity. He would stare directly at the zombies in front of him every time. After petrifying them, Tang Ning would immediately cut off their heads. Tang Ning was slow to react, so Ji An did it himself. The two of them worked well together and soon killed more than ten zombies.
"A boss is a boss. I've never felt so good killing zombies before!" Tang Ning said easily.
It seems that some words cannot be said. As soon as Tang Ning finished speaking, the zombie group suddenly became restless.
Ji An's heart trembled, he looked up, and saw that a path had appeared in the zombie crowd at some point, and the zombies were huddled together in panic, trembling in the corner.
Those who failed to dodge in time had their heads ripped out by a bloody claw, and the shiny crystal core lay in the bloody palm. It was sent under the zombie's nose, and then the zombie showed an intoxicated expression like taking drugs, as if he was about to die.
Ji An's expression gradually became solemn, but the zombie suddenly woke up from his drunken dream, crushed the crystal core with one hand, and rushed towards Ji An with a roar.
Tangning screamed, "This is a level 3 zombie. What should I do?"
Ji An was not disturbed by Tang Ning's shouting. He stared at the zombie's eyes, regardless of the zombie's ferocious grasp at him and trying to 'petrify' it.
This time, Ji An used all his attention and didn't even bother to guard against sudden attacks from other zombies.
Just when the zombie was about to catch Ji An, it suddenly froze.
Ji An breathed a sigh of relief, luckily his 'petrification' was successful, otherwise Ji An would have a hard time saying who would win or lose in this zombie battle.
"Wow, that's amazing, Mr. Ji, you can actually control zombies beyond your level!" Tangning was so impressed that she almost kowtowed to Ji An.
"Don't waste time, let's kill it together!" Ji An ordered.
"Okay." Tang Ning responded and headed into the fight.
Ji An also picked up the machete and chopped at the zombie's neck.
Just when the two were about to succeed, the zombie suddenly broke free from Ji An's mental power, and swung its arms, which looked skinny but were actually very powerful, and easily knocked the two away, one on each side.
Ji An fell heavily to the ground, his internal organs shifting in pain. Tang Ning was even more miserable, coughing up blood.
The third-level zombie staggered and walked towards Ji An with his eyes fixed.
Behind it, there were several level 1 and 2 minions, almost all of them were evolved zombies. The ordinary zombies had already scattered.
They couldn't win because the other side had too many zombies. Escape was impossible. None of them had speed abilities and couldn't outrun the level three zombies.
The third-level zombie opened his arms, took two quick steps, and suddenly leaped towards Ji An.
The third-level zombies are different from the low-level zombies. They are very fast and are in front of them in the blink of an eye. Even if Ji An wants to hide, he can't avoid them without his speed ability.
What's more, Ji An didn't even think about hiding.
He met the zombie's eyes, his eyes were fixed on it, and his pupils began to change, gradually becoming narrower and narrower, turning into an oval shape, and finally into a vertical line.
A lot of mental power as thin as spider threads flowed out from Ji An's brain and madly drilled into the brain of the third-level zombie.
Whoosh, the zombie that was just threatening to eat Ji An's brain suddenly became quiet.
Its head drooped, its body was stiff, its eyes became increasingly dull, and it looked completely dazed, like a puppet.
"Kill them." Ji An ordered.
In fact, Ji An doesn't need to speak, he just needs to think with his brain and give instructions in his mind, and the third-level zombies will follow them.
The language of zombies is different from that of humans. The zombies can't understand what Ji An says. Ji An also doesn't understand the zombies' weird cries. The two communicate with each other through mental power, or brain waves.
The main reason why Ji An gave the order was to let Tang Ning know what they would do next and cooperate in time.
When the third-level zombie received the order, it rushed out in an instant like a kite with its string cut. When facing the low-level zombies, it took out the crystal cores one by one with its claws.
The zombie lowered its head and immediately absorbed the energy inside.
"Give it to me." Ji An said quickly.
The third-level zombie stared at Ji An blankly. There was a hint of shock in its dull eyes, as if it couldn't believe that Ji An actually snatched its food.
Ji An hooked his finger, and the third-level zombie stretched out his long nails and handed the crystal core to Ji An. The whole action was full of reluctance, and during this time, Ji An also felt the pull of his mental power, as if he wanted to resist.
After all, it violated the nature of the third-level zombies, so it was normal for the zombies to subconsciously resist. Fortunately, the third-level zombies were not so smart, and although they had some independent consciousness, it was not much. Ji An slightly strengthened the mental control, and the third-level zombies became obedient again.
"Wow, boss, you got this!" Tangning gave Ji An a thumbs up, "Your hands are amazing!"
Although the two crystal cores were both level one or level two, they could still be exchanged for food and other supplies, so Ji An put them away.
The two of them stood guard at the door, waiting for the zombies inside to come out. As each one came out, the level 3 zombies would kill it one by one. If it couldn't take care of them, Ji An and Tang Ning would finish them off from behind.
After a while, no more zombies came out of the door. I don’t know if the zombies had learned their lesson or just disappeared.
Ji An waited for a while, but still no zombies came out. He waved to Tang Ning, "Let's go in. Be alert and follow it. If anything happens, retreat. Don't delay."
"Got it." Tangning replied immediately.
This time, Ji An drove the third-level zombies to clear the way in front, so the two of them could walk much more smoothly. Occasionally, a few zombies escaped from the third-level zombies and ran to their side, but they were all dealt with by Ji An and Tang Ning together.
With the third-level zombies protecting them, Ji An and Tang Ning walked easily. They collected experimental equipment from house to house, and no matter whether they were broken or not, Ji An put them away.
The underground base is really big. In addition to the human organ removal experiments, these Japanese also conducted super bacteria and other cruel experiments that exceeded the bottom line of humanity.
All the experimental subjects were Chinese without exception, which made Ji An extremely angry.
The two men and one corpse walked deeper and deeper until they came to the last laboratory.
The door of the laboratory was half open. Ji An commanded the third-level zombies to bang on the door. The third-level zombies felt aggrieved, but still banged on the door.
Suddenly, a skinny arm stretched out. Its nails were so long and curved that they looked like they would break at the touch, but in fact they could easily pierce the skull.
The third-level zombie had its crystal core easily taken out by the zombies in the dark, and then fell to the ground silently.
