Perhaps due to the overly powerful dehumidification system in the granary, the skin of these zombies was completely dehydrated and shriveled. The dried, hardened skin clung tightly to their bodies like hard armor, and bullets could only leave shallow scratches. "Aren't zombies supposed to be killable with a headshot...? Why are these zombies impervious to bullets and blades..." Several young members of the Rising Sun Base, unfamiliar with such a dangerous situation, dropped their weapons and tried to escape through the small door on the right side of the granary. But the hardened zombies were faster; several dark figures darted past like ghosts, instantly biting off the escapees' heads. Crunch, crunch, crunch. The sound of the zombies chewing deeply stimulated the tense nerves of everyone present. "Run! Run! We'll die here!" Someone shouted in despair. Panic erupted in the crowd, and many members with insufficient combat experience immediately fled like headless flies. However, there wasn't much open space in the granary to begin with, and they were immediately blocked by zombies hidden in the grain piles after only a few steps. Some were dragged into the horde of zombies and brutally devoured, quickly reduced to mere skeletons. Others had their heads bitten off, their headless torsos dragged into piles of corn and vanished. In the chaos, the remaining survivors instinctively unleashed their various supernatural abilities to fend off the zombies. However, the grain silo was extremely cramped, and this indiscriminate attack quickly caused numerous internal casualties. The zombies barely managed to land a few hits, while their own people suffered heavy losses. The situation inside the crowded grain silo was completely out of control. "Everyone, stop all movement!" At this critical moment, Xu Yi's deep voice rang out. He squinted, deftly raised his submachine gun, and fired several shots at the hardened zombies. Compared to ordinary bullets, the unique incendiary properties of white phosphorus bullets were far more effective against zombies. Even a slight glancing blow would cause a burn wound that would rapidly spread along the skin's texture, quickly burning away everything except for dry bones. Seeing that Xu Yi's attacks were effective against the zombies, the panicked crowd finally calmed down somewhat. "Sweetie! Xiaoyu! Control these zombies now!" Lu Sheng immediately called to his teammates. These zombies were too fast and had excellent jumping ability, giving them a huge advantage in this confined space. They had to find a way to restrict their movement and then take them down one by one. Taking advantage of the fact that the hardened zombies were suppressed by Xu Yi's firepower, Xiao Yu's water dragon immediately swept up, drenching the zombies' withered feet. Sun Tiantian then unleashed her fourth-tier ice-type ultimate skill, Icebound Forbidden Zone. With Xiao Yu's ability as a foundation, Sun Tiantian successfully froze all the hardened zombies in the Icebound Forbidden Zone. The thick layer of ice completely imprisoned the zombies' legs on the ground, making it impossible for them to move an inch. "Great! These zombies have lost their mobility!" Someone in the crowd cried out in joy. Without their speed advantage, these hardened zombies were like meat on a chopping board, completely at their mercy. "Thank you..." Lin Weicheng pursed his lips and solemnly thanked Lu Sheng and the others. "You guys handle the rest," Lu Sheng said calmly, giving a signal with her eyes. All the hardened zombies were under control; the cleanup was left to these teams. She needed to focus her attention on the giant outside the door. A level five zombie! She wondered what kind of reward she'd get after killing it! She was already itching to try! The pressure finally found an outlet, and the base teams immediately rushed forward, rubbing their hands together, and unleashed their fury on the restrained zombie. The crowded granary echoed with the sounds of various weapons and superpowers, the murky air thick with the putrid stench of dismembered zombie limbs. "This fat guy doesn't seem to have noticed us yet," Lü Song said, crouching by the door, peering through the crack at the enormous creature outside. In the distance, the giant zombie strolled aimlessly through the yard, as if taking a leisurely walk. Suddenly, it turned and stared at the military vehicle parked on the left side of the yard. With each step it took, Lu Sheng and the others felt the ground tremble even through the door. "Why is it staring at our vehicle?" someone in the K3 base asked curiously. "Oh no!" The bespectacled young man suddenly turned pale, stammering and almost crying, "Su Ke is in the car!" "Are you fucking crazy?" Ma Dongmei grabbed the bespectacled young man's collar, "Why did you bring Su Ke here?" "She said she wanted to help, but Young Master Su wouldn't let her, she kept begging me..." "I thought she had spatial abilities, so she could help us carry some food... I was afraid she'd come along and cause trouble, so I didn't let her get out of the car..." Before he could finish speaking, Su Zheng had already rushed out the door. "Doesn't Su Zheng have no abilities?! Is he going to his death?!" Ma Dongmei angrily punched the bespectacled young man and rushed out after Su Zheng. Several key members of the K3 base, led by Lü Song, followed. Su Zheng unleashed the greatest potential of a grown man, he ran quickly towards the fifth-level zombie, raised his hand and shot at the zombie's fat belly. The bullet grazed the round, bluish-purple belly like a tickle. But the gunshot successfully attracted the attention of the fifth-level zombie. "I'm right here! Come and chase me if you dare!" Su Zheng, his face slightly flushed from running, shouted mockingly at the level-five zombie. The two-headed zombie was indeed successfully provoked and immediately turned to charge at Su Zheng. Seeing the zombie had taken the bait, Su Zheng immediately rushed forward, his hands landing as he transformed into a sleek jaguar. While drawing the zombie away, Su Zheng shouted sharply to Ma Dongmei and the others, "Take Su Ke away!" Lu Sheng and the others: "..." So it wasn't that he didn't have superpowers, it was just that his idol image prevented him from revealing his ability to transform into animals... But Su Zheng had attracted the two-headed zombie's attention, which gave her an opportunity. The next second, Lu Sheng's figure moved with lightning speed, rushing straight towards the two-headed zombie. The delicate little head, upon seeing Lu Sheng, immediately contorted in disgust, opening its mouth to spit out a spray of black liquid at Lu Sheng. Lu Sheng didn't dodge or evade, but instead sped up to meet it. Black liquid splattered onto Lu Sheng's clothes, immediately corroding a large patch at her shoulder, revealing her fair and rounded shoulder. This zombie's liquid was at most corrosive and toxic, but neither had any effect on her. Su Zheng wouldn't be able to hold her off for long; she needed to take advantage of the two-headed zombie's distraction and finish it off quickly! A lasso made of strong spider silk flew from Lu Sheng's hand, instantly wrapping around the neck of the delicate little head. Pulling hard on the silk, Lu Sheng used the momentum to leap into the air. Stepping on the two-headed zombie's knees, she jumped onto its back in a few steps. The little head emitted a series of wailing sounds, spitting out the foul-smelling black liquid again. Lu Sheng's ears ached from the noise, so she pulled a dish sponge from her spatial storage and shoved it into the little head's mouth. "Mmm." With its mouth blocked, the little head could only make indistinct whimpers. Attacked from behind, the two-headed zombie immediately swung its arms backward, trying to pull Lu Sheng off its back. Lu Sheng dodged the zombies' attacks by leaping left and right, while simultaneously pulling out pepper spray and spraying it into Xiao Tou's eyes.
