Chapter 41 Dual-Power Zombies
Three days later, outside Yuan'an Town
The sky is dark.
Several people sat around a fire.
Fang Pengxing held a piece of firewood in his hand, stirred it casually, and said to a burly man sitting next to him: "Captain, how much food and crystal cores do you think we can get in this mission?" He swallowed hard as he spoke.
As soon as these words came out, the five people around him looked at the man at the same time.
This was a mission assigned by the higher-ups at the base, so the reward shouldn't be too small.
They naturally knew that the zombies this time would not be weak and this mission would not be easy.
Yuan Xiuwei paused, "The base commander said that each person will receive 100 second-level crystal cores and 500 kilograms of food!"
Several people's eyes widened immediately. How could the reward be so generous?
Originally, they were all psychics behind the top leaders. This time, they suddenly received a mission saying that a high-level fire zombie had appeared in Yuan'an Town. Some predicted that it was a second or third level zombie.
Originally, when Han Boyuan, Xu Hongcen, and Zhou Yuanji asked their people, no one stood up. However, after they mentioned the mission reward, these people stood up.
Originally there were only three people, but the number was indeed too small, so Han Boyuan asked for more people. Now Xu Hongcen and Zhou Yuanji's faces instantly became as dark as the bottom of a pot.
The psychics in their hands are the capital for them to gain a foothold in the base. They have already spent resources to enhance their abilities. It can be said that these psychics are their treasures!
If their lives were not threatened, no one would be willing to use these people with special abilities!
Originally, they were unwilling to send even one person, and now they want one more?!
Han Boyuan smiled indifferently, "I'll send one more person, three."
After these words were spoken, the two were speechless. The base commander had already said this much, and even if they were dissatisfied, they couldn't say anything.
Sparks crackled.
There was silence for a while. The cool wind was blowing gently, but no one felt sleepy.
Yuan Xiuwei looked at the road not far away with a frown.
A middle-aged man with an ordinary face looked up at Yuan Xiuwei, then looked around.
"Captain, did you feel that there were a lot of zombies when we came out of the base, but as we got closer to Yuan'an Town, the number of zombies gradually decreased. In fact, when we arrived in this area, we didn't encounter a single zombie at all!"
After Fang Pengxing heard what he said, he also felt something was wrong, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Originally, he felt that everything was going smoothly along the way, but when he thought about it this way, he felt that everything was weird.
Yuan Xiuwei looked around, frowning. His originally handsome face seemed to have been tempered by experience, with a hint of toughness and strength. His eyes were fixed on the building in front of him.
"Everyone, be careful and cheer up! This is the zombie's stronghold. The zombies that can be dealt with by the higher-ups personally are not easy to deal with!"
I originally thought that because the weather was cold, zombies would hibernate like snakes, but now it seems that is not certain.
The wind blew past their cheeks. Several people sat together, on guard, watching the movements around them.
Fang Pengxing concealed the rapid beating of his heart and suppressed the panic in his heart, "I don't know why, but I always feel like I'm being targeted by a vicious tongue!"
Several people couldn't help but take a deep breath. What was the feeling of being stared at?
Catching a turtle in a jar?
There was silence all around, when suddenly, a gust of wind mixed with anger blew towards here fiercely.
In an instant, a huge red circle of fire appeared on the ground, surrounding them.
Yuan Xiuwei's eyes lit up with shock, and he said, "Scatter quickly!" and jumped to the side.
However, the others were still trapped and unable to retreat.
Fang Pengxing jumped away. He quickly ran to Yuan Xiuwei with an anxious look on his face, "Captain, what should we do?"
The others looked panicked, "Captain, run!"
No matter what superpowers they used, the fire circle remained motionless. Even water, which was supposed to extinguish fire, seemed to have lost scientific common sense.
As soon as he finished speaking, waves of fire circles swarmed towards Yuan Xiuwei and Fang Pengxing, and the two were terrified.
Yuan Xiuwei stretched out his hand and wielded a fire-based ability, but the fire circle that came towards him was too fierce and directly knocked his ability back.
Fang Pengxing's eyes were filled with anxiety, and his face turned pale. "Captain, get out of the way!"
As he spoke, he had already rushed towards him to block the powerful fire element ability.
"Bang!" The whole person fell heavily to the ground, "cough cough"
Fortunately, when he pounced on him, he gathered supernatural power around him and was able to barely resist.
"Fang Pengxing!"
Yuan Xiuwei quickly ran towards him and helped the person on the ground up.
"How are you?!"
Fang Pengxing waved his hands, his face pale, "Captain, I'm fine."
The others could do nothing but look at them anxiously, "Go!"
One of the men with ordinary faces paused and shouted anxiously, "It's coming! Go!"
The next second, his whole body burned like a fireball and turned into ashes in an instant.
The others broke out in cold sweats as they watched. They felt like prey trapped in a cage, waiting to be slaughtered, with no power to resist.
Yuan Xiuwei had no time to grieve over the passing of his teammate, and quickly pushed Fang Pengxing next to him, "Hurry up!"
Fang Pengxing shook his head and looked at his trapped teammates with gritted teeth.
He can't just leave like this, his teammates are still here.
"roar--"
A hoarse zombie voice sounded from not far away.
Everyone's face turned pale.
Yuan Xiuwei didn't have time to think about anything. He gathered his special powers and threw Fang Pengxing fiercely in the opposite direction.
"Leave here and report the situation here to the base!"
Before Fang Pengxing could say anything, he was caught in a circle of fire and his body was lifted up and flew out.
"roar!"
A clean zombie wearing casual clothes stalked over.
Just then he saw Fang Pengxing running away, and his originally black eyes instantly turned red, "Roar!"
The supernatural powers in his body were raging. The person who was originally trapped in the circle of fire turned pale and grabbed his own neck with his backhand, struggling desperately.
Four people, identical movements.
Yuan Xiuwei's eyes turned red, "Li Fei! Wang Lin! Zhao Hai! Song Yi!"
His face was filled with anger, and his supernatural powers gathered together, with fire blades flying towards the fire zombies in the sky.
The zombie was extremely angry, and suddenly a hurricane came from all around and hit him.
Yuan Xiuwei was shocked. This zombie has dual abilities!
Fire and wind!
The information coming from the base is totally inaccurate!
At this moment, the person trapped in the fire circle suddenly exploded and died, with blood splattering all over his body.
Yuan Xiuwei was drenched all over, but the zombie's body seemed to be isolated by a layer of wind, and was spotless.
Yuan Xiuwei was extremely depressed as he watched his teammates who were alive just a moment ago die one by one in front of him.
In an instant, overwhelming rage swept through his body. Even if he couldn't get out of here today, he would never let this zombie go unharmed!
The fire zombie stared at him with its completely black eyes which had some whites restored. Just when it was about to get rid of him, suddenly, the person in front of it burst out with powerful supernatural powers. Fire spread all over his body and rushed towards it. The speed was so fast that in the blink of an eye, the person had already rushed in front of it!
