Chapter 307, Mutual Counteraction
Jiang Ran finished yelling and reached out: "Give me a knife."
The little girl was ready to rush up and teach the powerful-looking zombie a lesson to vent his anger.
Si Xu smiled as he took out a brand new Tang sword from the space and handed it to her: "It's very sharp, don't cut yourself."
"Okay." Jiang Ran, who had never used a Tang sword before, pretended to use it twice, then rushed towards the zombies holding the sword.
Huo Lingyin happened to see this scene when she arrived.
She and Jiang Ran went to look for Si Xu separately. Worried about Jiang Ran's safety, she didn't go far. After hearing the noise here, she came over.
She stopped two steps behind Si Xu and frowned: "Is it really okay for you to let her do this?"
That zombie's ability level is not low.
Si Xu curled his lips: "Don't worry, Jiang Ran just happens to be his nemesis."
…
When the girl rushed towards him, Mr. Zombie stood calmly without moving.
A food with no special powers was running towards him, why would he move?
He just had to wait here, wait for her to come to him, and then bite her neck off.
He thought so and did so.
The moment Jiang Ran rushed in front of him, he raised his hand and grabbed Jiang Ran with his skinny five fingers like claws.
He was confident that he could control her.
This food seemed very important to Si Xu. If he caught her, he could let Si Xu do the exchange herself.
He would be very happy if the food turned from an ordinary person into a superpower.
Of course, after he ate Si Xu, he could also take the two that appeared later back home for a midnight snack...
Mr. Zombie was still immersed in his fantasy plan when he suddenly felt a chill in his chest and lowered his head.
The sharp Tang sword directly broke through the metal protective armor on his chest and pierced his chest.
The girl was stabbed with a knife and rolled on the ground to avoid his sharp claws.
She was very fast, much faster than an ordinary person. By the time he came to his senses, the food had already rolled and crawled to the side in a very ungraceful manner.
Si Xu stood in front of the girl, looked at the grass debris stuck on her face, couldn't help laughing, and picked the dead leaves from her hair.
"Well done." He praised her generously.
Jiang Ran was pleased: "It was because of his carelessness that I was given the opportunity to take advantage of him."
Si Xu nodded and said, "The stab was a little off."
After all, he lacked some practical experience, otherwise, the knife just now could have directly pierced the zombie's heart.
As the two spoke, Mr. Zombie had already pulled out the knife from his chest. His attention shifted from Si Xu to Jiang Ran: "How... could you break through my ability?"
His intuition was correct. This food ignored his metal ability. Was she also a psychic? But there was no psychic fluctuation in her body at all.
"You want to know?" Jiang Ran said disgustedly, "I won't tell you."
Mr. Zombie, who had been teased, felt that humans were abominable. He clenched his fists, staring at Jiang Ran with his pale eyes, and his tone fluctuated slightly: "You, come here, let's, fight again."
The wound on his chest healed quickly. He released his hand from his chest, pointed at Jiang Ran, and said angrily, "Come here!"
Blood dripped from his fingertips onto the grass, making a slight sound.
Jiang Ran looked at the blood on the ground, and the disgust in his eyes was replaced by surprise and confusion.
Her mind was constantly thinking about the plot of the novel, and she was still stirring up hatred: "If you let me go, I will go. Wouldn't it be very embarrassing for me?"
Mr. Zombie's speech was not very clear, but he could fully understand what Jiang Ran said, so he became even more angry: "If you don't come over, I will lose face!"
When he was angry, he spoke much faster and the stiff pauses in between were gone.
Jiang Ran said perfunctorily: "I'm not coming."
Mr. Zombie: “…”
After Jiang Ran choked the zombie, Si Xu threw away the Tang sword in his hand and replaced it with a new one: "If she doesn't come, I will."
He walked towards the zombie opposite with a knife in hand: "Don't you want face? I'll give it to you."
The moonlight fell on the snow-white blade, the light flowed, condensed into a point and bloomed.
Si Xu's tone was slightly higher than usual, reflecting his excitement at having encountered a formidable foe: "You are very honored to have died under my sword."
The external space was no longer effective, and Mr. Zombie became much more vigilant.
Like a prey being targeted by a hunter, he tensed his body, his eyes fixed on the moving Si Xu, his fingertips sharp as blades, ready to strike at any time.
…
This was the first time Huo Linyin had seen a fight between real high-level psychics - in the base, psychics above level five could be considered high-level, but at this moment Huo Linyin felt that in the hands of these two people, the so-called high-level psychics in the base could not withstand a single blow.
Si Xu always pursued efficiency when killing zombies, and every blow went to the vital points. His speed was so fast that Huo Lingyin could not see any of his movements for a while.
Unfortunately, that zombie blocked them all.
The shock wave generated by the collision of superpowers pushed Jiang Ran, who was competing with the two, a few steps away. The latter immediately wisely moved away.
"What do you think of these two people?"
"The other one is not a human, it's a zombie."
"Okay, how about Si Xu and this zombie? Who will win?"
"Si Xu." Jiang Ran said without hesitation, "With me here, Si Xu will definitely not lose."
"...Are you a mascot? So confident?"
"You don't understand, this is a love bonus, it works wonders in battle~"
“…”
Huo Lingyin didn't want to talk to the blindly optimistic girl. She stared at the battlefield nervously, trying to find an opportunity to help her teammates.
While she wasn't paying attention, Jiang Ran crawled towards the place where the zombie had just stood.
By the time Huo Lingyin noticed her, she had already crawled to a dangerous position close to the battlefield.
"Jiang Ran, you..." The woman lowered her voice and hurriedly called the girl's name, cursing, "Are you trying to kill yourself?"
There was the sound of whistling wind in her ears. Jiang Ran ignored Huo Lingyin's cry. She found the drop of blood on the grass, picked it up with her fingertips and brought it to her nose to sniff.
There's no rotting smell that zombies should have...
She licked it again with the tip of her tongue and frowned.
This blood...seems to be no different from human blood - sticky, warm, with a fishy and astringent smell.
When Huo Lingyin went crazy, Si Xu had already ended the battle.
Without the constraints of external space, and with the blessing of superpowers, the zombies were unable to gain any advantage over this human being, who was at the ceiling of combat power.
However, he did not linger on.
Seeing that he was being suppressed by Si Xu and would inevitably be defeated if the battle dragged on for too long, he took advantage of the gap between him and Si Xu and pulled out a smoke bomb from the space.
With a hissing sound, choking smoke spread.
Worried that the zombies would take the opportunity to attack Jiang Ran, Si Xu quickly turned around and returned to Jiang Ran.
He pulled Jiang Ran, who was lying on the ground, up and out of the range of the smoke bomb.
Huo Lingyin ran to the two of them and asked, "Ahem, are you okay?"
Wiping the blood off his fingertips on his clothes, Jiang Ran said, "I'm fine, Si Xu is injured."
"It's just a minor injury, no..." Receiving the cold gazes of the people around him, he changed his words, "I wonder if I should apply medicine?"
"Of course." Jiang Ran said seriously, "If you're injured, you should apply medicine properly. Do you think you're a vampire and can heal yourself automatically if you're injured?"
“…”
"Also, that zombie couldn't be defeated and escaped. I have some questions about him that I want to discuss with you." This is a very important issue that cannot be ignored and may affect the future situation.
