Chapter 257 Go out and find herbs to kill zombies
"Fuck! How can people who died before the end of the world turn into zombies?"
When Meng Ci saw this scene, he was so shocked that he was speechless and couldn't help but swear.
He tried hard to recall the plot of the novel, but there was no mention of people who died before the apocalypse becoming zombies.
Turning to look at Shen Que, he found that he was also shocked. It was obvious that he had never encountered such a situation in his previous life.
The clothes on the female zombie in front of him had rotted away, and large areas of her legs, feet, arms and other parts had turned into bones.
However, surprisingly, she miraculously opened her eyes after getting up.
But only the whites of the eyes were left, as if they had lost their souls.
When she heard Meng Ci's voice, she rushed towards them without hesitation.
Compared with other zombies, this female zombie has exceptionally good coordination of her limbs and moves more agilely.
Meng Ci quickly manipulated the green plants to wrap around the female zombie's legs, which had turned into bones, trying to stop her from moving forward.
However, this female zombie was obviously stronger than ordinary zombies. She broke the green plant after only two struggles, and then continued to move forward with a hissing sound.
Shen Que quickly controlled his fire ability, condensed the flames into a huge fireball, and threw it at the female zombie.
Surprisingly, however, the female zombie wasn't hit as hard or flinched as the other zombies.
Instead, she continued to lunge at Shen Que, seemingly ignoring his attack.
"It seems that the only way to kill this zombie is to chop off her head and take out the crystal directly."
Shen Que threw two fireballs and spoke as he and Meng Ci moved the two of them.
"Um."
The female zombie pounced towards the place where the two people had just been with its fangs and claws bared, but it missed and stood there in a daze.
After a long while, the female zombie turned around mechanically and continued to rush towards Meng Ci and Shen Que.
Thinking that these zombies would not lower their heads to look at the road, Meng Ci controlled several green plants to form a green barrier in front of the female zombie. Just in case, he gave birth to two more green plants.
As expected, the female zombie was tripped by these green plants and fell to the ground.
Taking this opportunity, Meng Ci immediately controlled all the green plants to entangle the female zombie, like a huge green net, tightly binding the female zombie.
Shen Que seized the opportunity, took out a big knife from the space, walked quickly to the female zombie, and cut off her head with one stroke.
Although the female zombie's head fell off, her body struggled and actually got up again.
Meng Ci manipulated the green plants to continue to stop the female zombie, while Shen Que took a long knife, smashed the skull without blinking, and then took out the crystal.
The female zombie's body fell to the ground with a clang as the crystal was taken out.
Meng Ci came over and looked at the crystal in Shen Que's hand. It seemed to be larger than the crystals of ordinary zombies, and the color was darker.
More than an hour later, the group of zombies realized something was wrong and cleverly started walking up the mountain.
The psychics had consumed two-thirds of their mental energy and were unable to catch up.
After the crystals have been taken out, we are also responsible for the follow-up work.
Under the leadership of the soldiers, they gathered all the zombie bodies together, picked up some dry firewood, and burned them.
After the fire was completely extinguished, everyone started to walk back.
Arriving at the points redemption point, everyone began converting levels into points.
When the staff saw that the crystals in Meng Ci and the others' hands looked larger than ordinary crystals, they gave them more points.
Not long after, the official released a new message announcing changes to the rules for redeeming points.
According to the new regulations, different types of crystals will be exchanged for different numbers of points.
Naturally, the psychics took notice of this announcement, thinking that they would have to be selective when killing zombies in the future.
Two months have passed, and the urban area and other areas densely populated by zombies have been completely cleared.
The group of academicians, experts, and medical staff previously protected by the authorities began to play their role and research vaccines.
Because the authorities had read Shen Que's previous letter, and this letter was shared nationwide, at this time, each base began to look for the herbs described in the letter while eliminating the zombies.
Meng Ci and Shen Que's mentality changed after they saw that there were not so many zombies outside.
As both of their abilities improved, they began to become lazy.
Now, they would only go out once every two or three days, and only occasionally go out to kill a few zombies and look for the herbs that Shen Que mentioned.
However, although Shen Que had heard of this herb before, he had never seen it himself, so he could not accurately describe what it looked like.
Regarding this matter, Meng Ci and Shen Que both understood that they could not rush for success, so they maintained a calm attitude.
As time went on, the number of zombies decreased significantly.
Government departments no longer organize people to fight zombies as frequently as before, but instead shift their focus to finding herbs.
On this day, Meng Ci and Shen Que went out with Xiong Ying and Eggplant.
They drove the off-road vehicle, keeping an eye out for zombies around them.
Those lone zombies would immediately run over excitedly when they heard the roar of the car, and there was no need for Meng Ci and others to go forward to look for them.
After opening the trunk, Eggplant and Eagle ran up and knocked down the other one each, without Meng Ci and the others having to do anything.
However, Meng Ci and Shen Que would only get out of the car and join the battle if they encountered a large number of zombies gathered together.
Eggplant and Eagle roared excitedly. They used their sharp claws and teeth to tear open the zombies' bodies, and then skillfully dug out the crystal cores.
Disgusted by the blood on the crystal core, they did not pick up the crystal core with their mouths, but waited quietly for Shen Que and Meng Ci to pick it up.
Or Shen Que could directly use his spatial ability to pick up objects through the air.
However, they didn't expect that while they were waiting this time, they felt a gust of wind, and the two crystals on the ground disappeared out of thin air.
“Ouch, ouch!”
Eggplant and the eagle were extremely anxious. They kept howling, as if asking their two masters whether they had taken the crystal.
Meng Ci and Shen Que naturally noticed this scene, and they quickly opened the car door and got out.
"No?"
"Why are there people snatching crystals everywhere?" Meng Ci said helplessly.
Eggplant and the eagle had already smelled the scent of the crystal, and they chased after it excitedly.
Meng Ci and Shen Que were worried that the two animals might be in danger, so they didn't bother to drive and just ran after them.
Because of their special powers, the two of them were extremely fast and caught up with Eggplant and Eagle in the blink of an eye.
After turning around two dilapidated buildings, Meng Ci saw a man and a woman, and Eggplant and Eagle kept barking at them.
