Chapter 132 Level 5 Mutant Spider
Han Dongling was originally traveling on an electric scooter, but she encountered an obstacle. The road was blocked by a pile of rubble and construction debris, so she had to put the electric scooter away and walk instead.
But as she walked, she suddenly realized something was wrong, and a sense of unease welled up inside her, so she couldn't help but slow down.
Fortunately, this was the case, so she quickly realized where her unease came from.
It turned out that there were over a hundred zombies gathered not far ahead. Han Dongling could tell at a glance that there were no fewer than 100 zombies, but she didn't know the exact number at the moment.
There were so many zombies that she definitely couldn't defeat them all by herself, but the thought that these zombies represented crystal cores made her somewhat tempted.
She looked through her storage ring. She had been trading with Ning Xuan every day recently, and her defensive supplies had increased significantly, including several stacks of talismans.
Absorbing crystal cores is so convenient, and cultivation levels rise rapidly. Ning Xuan felt the benefits of crystal cores and hoped that Han Dongling could grow up quickly and protect herself so that she could obtain more crystal cores. Therefore, Ning Xuan gave Han Dongling a lot of self-defense items.
In addition, Han Dongling has already been able to cultivate and has now reached the third level of Qi Refining, which is higher than Ning Xuan's level. Moreover, the post-apocalyptic world is not like the era in which she and Lin Yuhan lived, where explosive talismans cannot be used casually. Therefore, she gave Han Dongling the most offensive talismans.
After taking stock of her defensive supplies, Han Dongling decided not to let this wave of crystal cores go to waste. She planned to use invisibility talismans, attack talismans, and her own attack spells to wipe out the zombies one by one, starting from the outside.
Unexpectedly, because Han Dongling was quite focused on checking the items in her storage ring with her consciousness, although she also paid some attention to the zombie horde, she subconsciously ignored the surrounding situation.
After she had roughly taken stock of her self-defense supplies and was about to take a picture of herself to become invisible, a loud cry for help came from behind her.
Han Dongling turned around and saw several people running towards her. Judging from the distance, they must have seen her too, so she couldn't use the invisibility talisman anymore.
The cries for help from these people not only caught Han Dongling's attention, but also the zombie horde less than 100 meters away, and those that were closer began to rush over.
Han Dongling immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly warned the group, "Keep your voice down, there's a horde of zombies ahead!"
However, the people in front were too nervous, and Han Dongling didn't dare to shout too loudly. As a result, the group couldn't hear what Han Dongling was saying at all, and instead shouted even louder: "Run! It's a level 5 mutated spider!"
"Level 5!" Han Dongling was shocked when she heard this. In her current cultivation system, a Level 5 mutated animal is equivalent to the early Foundation Establishment stage. She, a Qi Refining stage cultivator, is no match for it at all. However, there are still hundreds of zombies in front of her. It's truly a case of being caught between a rock and a hard place.
More importantly, if you encounter a mutated spider, there will definitely be more than one spider nearby. However, it's unlikely that the other spiders are also level 5, but even one level 5 spider is still quite terrifying.
However, the spider was not yet in sight, and it was not yet a life-or-death moment. Han Dongling did not want to reveal that she "could" become invisible, so she planned to run to the side.
Seeing Han Dongling's actions, the people who were getting closer and closer behind her also ran after her.
One of them probably awakened a wind-type or speed-type superpower, and surprisingly, he quickly surpassed Han Dongling.
That was bad enough, but unexpectedly, that person launched a sneak attack on Han Dongling, but Han Dongling managed to block it.
"Feng Kai?" Han Dongling recognized the person in front of her as her former teammate, and she blurted out the name in surprise.
Thinking of those people behind her, Han Dongling couldn't help but glance back and recognized that the extremely disheveled group was actually Li Lei and Zhao Meimei, who seemed to be her previous team.
Feng Kai was also surprised that the other party recognized him. Since his sneak attack had failed earlier, he couldn't help but slow down and plan to attack again.
Feng Kai's goal was simple: to injure Han Dongling so that she would stay there and hold off the mutated spiders behind them.
Li Lei, who arrived at the scene, also realized Feng Kai's intention. Being a strength-type, he immediately picked up a large rock and prepared to smash it at Han Dongling.
Han Dongling knew that their actions were for self-preservation, but she still felt that she had been too foolish before, not seeing her teammates' true nature for so long.
She wanted to give them a chance, so she planned to acknowledge them as family. "Don't hit me! I'm Han Dongling!"
Upon hearing this, the group stopped what they were doing, took a closer look at Han Dongling, and then recognized her.
Zhao Meimei was both surprised and envious when she saw Han Dongling wearing such nice clothes, with clean skin and neatly grown hair.
"You're still alive?" Feng Kai asked in surprise.
Seeing Feng Kai's gaze fixed on Han Dongling's face, Zhao Meimei couldn't help but make a distorted expression. She quickly reminded the two of them, "What are you doing? The mutated spider is about to catch up! Run!"
He then gestured for Zhao Lei to act quickly, but Li Lei hesitated. Seeing that Han Dongling had actually survived and was now dressed neatly, he wondered if Han Dongling had awakened a superpower.
He asked directly, "Dongling, have you awakened a superpower?"
Han Dongling didn't want to talk, so she turned and ran, "Let's run away first!"
She was being foolish. At this critical moment of escaping for her life, why was she talking so much with these people? Besides, Feng Kai had tried to ambush her earlier, and Zhao Meimei, who came later, clearly had malice in her eyes.
Seeing Han Dongling running away desperately, the others quickly followed. However, there were many trees and the path was difficult to walk on. There were also zombies gathered at the place where there was a path ahead. They probably heard the noise and followed the scent of the group.
Seeing that she was about to fall behind, Zhao Meimei gritted her teeth and shouted, "She hasn't awakened her superpowers in so many years. Even if she has, she's only at level one in such a short time. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and make your move!"
After hearing Zhao Meimei's words, Feng Kai and Li Lei exchanged a glance as they ran, instantly understanding each other's meaning: they still needed to use Han Dongling as a scapegoat to buy time for their escape.
Using his superpower, Feng Kai sped up and quickly reached Han Dongling's side, using a prop to hold her back.
Seeing that they already knew who she was, and still insisted on letting her stay behind as a scapegoat, and remembering their initial refusal to help her in her time of need, Han Dongling decided to stop holding back and stop hiding her true abilities.
