Chapter 50: The First Appearance of Zombie Crystal Core
But despite this, Liu Yu was stiff and did not push Xu Shuyao away. She just glanced at Zhuang Moxing who was watching from the sidelines, signaling for help.
Zhuang Moxing's eyebrows twitched slightly and he shook his head slightly, indicating that he was at his wit's end.
Liu Yu frowned and touched Xu Shuyao's shaking back with the back of the knife to express his comfort?
After two or three minutes, Xu Shuyao stopped sobbing. She blushed and let go of Liu Yu embarrassedly. She lowered her head timidly and didn't dare to look at Liu Yu's expression.
Suddenly, a chubby little black hand appeared in her lowered vision. The palm of the little black hand was very white, and in the center was a small, most ordinary piece of fruit candy.
"Don't cry, here you go!"
Lingbao gestured for his senior brother to bend down. Zhuang Moxing's eyebrows twitched, not quite cooperating. But under Lingbao's bright eyes, he bent slightly.
Lingbao stuffed the candy into Xu Shuyao's hand, then tugged at Liu Yu's cold collar and asked her to go to the cold storage area over there to continue collecting yogurt.
Liu Yu touched Lingbao's head and followed his strength back to the cold storage area, but with a smile on his face, he teased: "Little loose sugar boy."
"Candy-scattering boy?" Lingbao hung on his senior brother's back with a face full of question marks, not understanding.
Liu Yu didn't explain and went straight to the cold storage area.
She promised Xu Shuyao that she could take her to the apartment, but she did not promise to protect her life. She had already done her best.
The most reliable thing in the end times is your own strength.
While he was thinking, two zombies followed the smell and wandered to the cold storage area. Liu Yu slashed with a knife and returned to the battlefield.
Xu Shuyao behind also caught up and followed their footsteps.
Next, she, Zhuang Moxing and Lingbao worked in perfect harmony to collect the items along the way.
There were so many hot pot ingredients like frozen dumplings and mutton rolls, and they were all in small pieces. Liu Yu didn't collect them all separately, so he just sent the entire freezer into the space.
Take half of the goods in the refrigerated area according to the proportion, and leave the rest to the right people.
The three of them explored the wine and beverage area and the daily necessities area one by one. Wherever they went, they swept away everything like a whirlwind.
But fortunately, Liu Yu still had some bottom line and did not take everything, so it could not be said that the Japanese invaders entered the village to raid it.
Behind the three of them was a weird-looking Xu Shuyao, who was neither far nor close to them, always keeping a distance of one meter.
He advances and retreats at will, and I don’t know what he is thinking.
She was holding the backpack that Liu Yu had thrown to her from the supermarket shelf ten minutes ago. She was surprised and stunned for a moment after taking it, and then she began to collect her own supplies.
Liu Yu always said that he was unkind, selfish and indifferent, but he always had a bottom line. I don’t know whether those words were true expressions or warnings to himself.
While Liu Yu was sweeping the supermarket, he was always alert to the situation around him.
From a third-party perspective, it seemed that they killed all the zombies wherever they passed, and there was no danger at all. However, it was not as easy as it seemed.
Although she and Zhuang Moxing are both psychics, they are only level one psychics after all. Their psychic powers and physical abilities are limited, so they are not immune to fatigue.
The reason they are now so comfortable is not only because of their own strength, but also because of Liu Yu's experience in his previous life.
But despite this, after fighting all the way, beads of sweat still formed on the foreheads of the two men, and a layer of sweat formed under their helmets and clothes. It was very stuffy, and the spiritual treasures on their backs were no exception.
But Liu Yu's experience taught her that she must never underestimate her enemies in the apocalypse, and certainly not let her guard down. Therefore, even as she was crushing the primary zombies with her strength, she remained on high alert.
Zhuang Moxing has been following Liu Yu's rhythm. She remains vigilant, so he is naturally on guard at all times.
Just as they had collected most of the supermarket supplies and were preparing to retreat, Liu Yu vaguely heard some strange noises coming from under the cash register at the supermarket exit.
This is the only way they can leave the supermarket!
In an instant, several people became alert.
Together with Lingbao, the four of them were on guard against the situation around them, each in a different direction.
The primary zombies were basically wiped out by them, and even Xu Shuyao no longer trembled at the sight of zombies, but was able to follow Liu Yu's steps to finish them off.
When they were only two meters away from the cashier counter, Liu Yu stopped, Zhuang Moxing fixed his sharp eyes on the cashier counter, and Xu Shuyao also noticed something, clenching her back teeth as she moved closer to the formation.
A faint clicking sound came from behind the cash register two meters away.
And just at the moment when Liu Yu and the other three stopped, the chewing sound suddenly stopped.
A ferocious head with gray hair suddenly raised up at the cashier counter!
It was an elderly zombie, at least seventy years old. But her sense of smell seemed extremely sharp. She smelled the rich scent of fresh human flesh and immediately locked onto Liu Yu and the other three nearby.
As soon as she determined the target, she howled excitedly, "Howl--" the sound was extremely sharp and piercing.
This sound was not like the ordinary zombies they had encountered before. The howling was so loud that it hurt the eardrums, and even Liu Yu could not avoid it.
When Liu Yu frowned, the zombies had already jumped out of the cash register and rushed towards the four-person formation at a speed that was completely inconsistent with that of an elderly person.
In an emergency, the three of them separated instantly, and the zombies suddenly missed. When she landed, Liu Yuzhuang Moxing had already withdrawn, and only Xu Shuyao was a step slower.
The zombies naturally locked onto her as their first target, and attacked Xu Shuyao with their big mouths spewing out smelly saliva and screaming.
This time, Xu Shuyao was not frightened to the point of freezing. Instead, she imitated the swordsmanship that Liu Yu had demonstrated along the way and slashed directly at the zombie.
The sharp blade was aimed at the zombie's head, but when it hit the old zombie's forehead, it did not kill him instantly as she expected!
The zombie felt pain and grabbed the handle of her knife with its claws. The force was too strong and she lost her balance and stumbled backwards, falling to the ground.
"It's a mutant zombie, get out of the way!"
The so-called mutated zombies are zombies that have evolved and upgraded in advance when most zombies are still at the same level. This type of zombie often has stronger attack power and special enhancements than ordinary zombies.
At each stage, the appearance of each mutated zombie will cause considerable casualties.
This zombie's attack speed and defense ability are obviously much stronger than most zombies nowadays. When the zombie missed its attack, Liu Yu immediately rushed towards Xu Shuyao.
Under her command, Xu Shuyao rolled on the spot and dodged the mutant zombie's attack again. After two consecutive misses, the mutant zombie lost all patience and raised its neck to howl.
The sharp howls of the zombies were so piercing that Liu Yu couldn't help but cover his ears with his hands.
At this time, Zhuang Moxing endured the howling that was similar to a sonic attack, and a ball of extremely hot red-white flame flew out from the palm of his hand at high speed.
The flames hit the mutant zombie's back accurately, splashing out sparks. The flames ignited as soon as they touched it, and the mutant zombie quickly felt the burning pain in his body.
"Roar!" The sonic attack is strengthened!
The mutant zombie was surrounded by flames and could no longer attack its target. It fell to the ground and rolled over in pain. Zhuang Moxing took advantage of the situation and threw out three more balls of flames, tightly wrapping the mutant zombie in all directions.
Seeing that the mutant zombie no longer launched sonic attacks, Liu Yu's eyes sharpened, and he quickly stepped forward with his knife and slashed the mutant zombie's neck.
However, this blow was not able to take off the zombie's head in one go. The second blow was followed by a powerful blow, and the mutant zombie's head and body were separated, and it stopped struggling.
After Liu Yu successfully chopped off the mutant zombie's head, he immediately retreated. It was not because the mutant zombie posed a threat of resurrection, but because Zhuang Moxing's red and white flames quickly burned throughout the mutant zombie's body.
If she didn't retreat in time, even if the fire didn't burn her, the steel knife in her hand would be damaged.
The firelight reflected and jumped on the faces of the four people. Xu Shuyao approached Liu Yu in shock, her heart beating violently.
The end of the world is so terrible. She had just mustered up the courage to kill zombies, but how come she encountered some mutated zombies so soon?
She glanced at Liu Yu and Zhuang Moxing with a look of relief, and even looked at Lingbao with respect. She had made up her mind to catch up with these strong men no matter what.
She didn't want to be the protagonist anymore. They were the domineering protagonists. She just wanted to be a lackey under their wings. She would do anything as long as it kept her alive...
Xu Shuyao's stance and attitude have been successfully transformed, and knowing how to adapt to changing circumstances is her greatest quality.
The flames quickly engulfed the mutated zombies, and gradually no trace of zombies remained on the ground, leaving only a milky white crystal the size of a fingernail and a small handful of green ash.
Liu Yu stepped forward and picked up the crystal. This was the zombie crystal core. She had tried to find it several times after killing so many zombies before, but none of the zombies had a crystal core in their heads.
This mutated zombie has it. It seems that the current level of the zombie is not enough to condense a crystal core.
Yes, in the previous life, it was more than a month later that the official confirmed the existence of the zombie crystal core and gained a preliminary understanding of its function.
Now, it's too early.
Unlike Liu Yu who focused on the zombie crystal core, what attracted Zhuang Moxing's attention was a small bunch of inconspicuous blue-gray.
