"What do you mean? Mixed race?"
Zhang Xiaojuan, supporting her back, climbed out of the ditch and limped over to Lu Sheng's side. "These things are like cats and dogs, mixed breeds are easier to raise than purebreds?"
"The mutation of zombies often tends to be influenced by environmental factors." Lu Sheng waved his hand, signaling the group to retreat a few steps.
There's a gas station right next to the toll booth. This zombie was probably trapped inside the gas station, which is why it evolved into a petroleum-related mutant during its evolution.
Not far away, the fire-type villagers had been burned to nothing but black charcoal.
The enormous creature leaned down and exhaled at the lump of black charcoal, and the remaining remains turned into countless fine black powders that disappeared into the night.
"hey-hey."
A crack appeared in the charred, sticky mouth, and wet, black saliva dripped down between its teeth.
"..."
As Lu Sheng and the others watched the monster play with the ashes of the poor villagers until they were gone, it turned around and slowly approached the crowd with its sticky steps.
He was under a heavy burden, each step leaving a deep footprint in the road. He constantly flung off a black, oily substance as he moved.
It looked like a black rain had fallen within a few meters around, and a lot of the ointment splattered onto the villagers.
The ointment has a very pungent smell and is highly corrosive; it will burn the skin immediately if it gets on it.
As the monster drew closer, some villagers panicked and tried to climb into the driver's seat to drive the lawnmower away.
"Don't drive!"
Lu Sheng hurriedly and sternly stopped him.
But the villagers, on the verge of a mental breakdown, wouldn't listen and instead immediately sped up their work.
The hot air and sparks from the lawnmower as it started instantly ignited the black grease that had splashed onto the vehicle.
boom!
With a loud bang, the lawnmower that had just started up burst into flames.
The firelight illuminated the night, and the flames leaped high and quickly spread along the scattered patches of oil on the road.
The dozen or so lawnmowers were loaded with heavy loads of grain, all of which were highly flammable. The fire quickly spread to all the machines in the convoy.
Some villagers who didn't have time to abandon their vehicles were burned alive, rolling off the lawnmowers with screams of agony.
However, the next second, the oil monster grabbed the nearly dried-out villager and took a big bite.
With a chilling chewing sound, the two villagers were devoured by the monster.
"What...what is this thing..."
Qi Peng's face was deathly pale, and his teeth were chattering and trembling.
Monsters of this magnitude were beyond the villagers' imagination. Humans are naturally more prone to fear of the unknown.
Xu Yi's eyes narrowed sharply behind his glasses. "This mutated zombie is at least level 7, extremely dangerous."
"We have to find a way to get rid of it, otherwise no one will leave here alive today." A fine layer of sweat appeared on Lu Sheng's forehead.
In the three years of the apocalypse in the previous life, the level of zombie mutation always maintained a delicate balance with the rate of evolution of human superhumans.
Only after the head-level superhumans reached the sixth level did level seven mutated zombies begin to appear.
But now, even fifth-level superhumans are extremely rare, while zombies have already evolved to level seven.
Once a zombie reaches level seven, it can choose to revert to a human appearance and possess normal thinking and language abilities.
Apart from skin color and eye color being different from normal humans, they are almost no different from normal people.
However, this level seven zombie in front of them not only failed to restore its clean appearance, but also completely abandoned its human physical characteristics, choosing to evolve for survival in a way that was more adapted to the environment.
These zombies that choose to survive and evolve are more bloodthirsty and ferocious than ordinary mid-to-high-level zombies, and the human parts of their bodies have been completely removed.
Today is destined to be a life-or-death game.
Lu Sheng couldn't help but curse the system in his heart.
They give you a bunch of useless stuff all the time, but when you really need something useful, they drag their feet and only give it to you after you complete a task.
It highlights a rebellious streak.
"What do we do now?" Sun Tiantian asked softly.
Due to the unique nature of the oil-mutated zombies, no one dares to use their powers carelessly. If an ability accidentally ignites the oil, the casualties will only increase.
Lu Sheng stared coldly at the approaching behemoth, his voice calm and collected, "All firearms are prohibited, as are supernatural abilities such as fire and lightning."
"Move gently and don't startle it with big jumps or running."
These mutated zombies have extremely keen eyesight and are more interested in living creatures. Although they appear to move slowly, they possess tremendous explosive power.
Once a target is locked on, it will instantly burst into a burst of extremely fast speed to kill the target.
Seeing that the level seven zombie was getting close, Lu Sheng said in a deep voice, "Xiao Yu and Tian Tian, work together and use ice to slow it down as much as possible. Try to seal the ointment on its body. The rest of you, keep your distance and use your abilities carefully, focusing on delaying it."
Everyone was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.
"And what about you?" Han Rui asked hurriedly.
"I'll go into close combat." Lu Sheng patted her shoulder reassuringly, then turned and strode resolutely toward the behemoth.
Level 7 zombies have terrifying healing abilities. If they cannot be dealt a fatal blow in a short time, they will quickly be at a disadvantage in a prolonged battle.
The oil-mutated zombies finally came into view, completely exposed to everyone.
The sight of that rotten flesh mixed with black ointment sent chills down everyone's spine.
"I'm so hungry..."
The level seven zombie's huge head suddenly rose, and its blurry facial features twitched, as if it were choosing its prey.
