"Oh no, there's danger!"
Duan Chenghong instinctively tried to get up, but as soon as he took a step, his wife Liu Xin grabbed his sleeve tightly.
Her gaze was calm: "I know you want to help, but you'll only make things worse. Trust her..."
Liu Xin's voice was deep, and every word was like a heavy hammer, striking Duan Chenghong's heart.
He pursed his lips, which appeared exceptionally pale in the night.
But in the end, Duan Chenghong chose to squat down again. Hopefully, she can handle it!
In contrast to the worried Duan Chenghong and his group, Xiao Jin raised her eyebrows high, a cold smile curling at the corners of her lips, her eyes gleaming with a determined light.
No matter how many come, today all these zombie dogs will leave behind the crystal cores in their heads.
A chilling, fishy stench began to fill the air, and a moment later, Xiao Jin heard a rapid, chaotic sound of running.
Immediately afterwards, the ground began to tremble slightly, and a cloud of yellow dust swept in along with the rampaging zombie dogs, instantly obscuring all surrounding visibility.
More than thirty zombie dogs, each with its gaping maw and sharp fangs, its eyes flashing with madness and bloodlust, pounced madly on Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin quickly scanned the area, a cold smile playing on his lips.
Just as she expected, all the dogs had identical tags on them, clearly indicating that they came from the same kennel.
What is even more striking is that the jagged, deep wounds on their bodies, which are clearly not caused by human teeth.
The encirclement of the zombie dogs quickly tightened. Duan Chenghong and the others who were observing from behind gripped their weapons tightly, their faces pale, and beads of sweat constantly rolling down their foreheads.
If Xiao Jin dies here today, they will definitely not survive either.
The thought of this possibility filled Duan Chenghong with regret. Why didn't he let the child run first? If they hadn't been a burden, she would definitely have survived.
However, Xiao Jin was unaware of Duan Chenghong's concerns.
Her eyes were cold, and the weapon in her hand gleamed with a chilling light.
The zombie dogs let out low, hoarse growls. Under the control of the level 3 superpowered zombie dogs, they felt no fear, no fatigue, and no pain.
They launched a fierce attack on Xiao Jin.
"Then come on!" Xiao Jin sneered and jumped back a step.
However, she didn't want to run away.
A flash of light surrounded Xiao Jin as he activated his skill.
In an instant, a dazzling electric field suddenly appeared, like a huge purple electric net, which suddenly enveloped all the zombie dogs.
Bound by the electric field, the zombie dogs convulsed wildly as if electrocuted.
Purple arcs of electricity crackled and leaped across their grotesque bodies, producing chilling explosions, and a burnt smell filled the air.
Xiao Jin's eyes were as cold as knives. Without the slightest hesitation, she quickly took out several stun grenades from her system inventory.
With a flick of the wrist, the stun grenades traced graceful arcs, landing precisely in that hellish area shrouded in electric fields.
"Boom!" With a deafening roar, the power of the stun grenade exploded instantly, as if the earth's crust trembled and the air was torn apart by the force.
Immediately following were the horrific sounds of bones breaking and flesh and blood splattering everywhere, and a pungent smell of blood quickly filled the air.
Smoke and dust filled the air, blurring everything into a hazy, indistinct shape.
As the dust settled, the scene before us was terrifying.
Large numbers of zombie dogs had been blown to pieces, with limbs and fragments scattered all over the ground, resembling a living hell.
Of those who were lucky enough to survive, only the leading level-three superpowered zombie dog and five level-two zombies remained.
However, after that series of attacks, they were no longer a threat to Xiao Jin.
Without a moment's hesitation, Xiao Jin, wielding a long sword, charged into the ravaged battlefield like a cheetah.
The shattered shadows drew silver trails in the air, the blade flashed like lightning, and blood splattered everywhere.
Soon, the last mournful howl of the zombie dog also came to an abrupt end, leaving only Xiao Jin on the battlefield. She stood amidst the chaos, her long sword dripping with undried blood.
Looking at the freshly formed crystal core in her palm, Xiao Jin happily put it back into her spatial storage, and then strode towards the SUV.
Tsk! It's been so long since I've gotten a crystal core, I kind of miss it...
Seeing that the battle was over, Duan Chenghong and his group finally dared to move and emerged from behind the ruins.
"Brother, is that a gemstone?" Duan Xiaofan was much bolder than before.
Even though the scene ahead was filled with blood and gore, he still innocently tilted his head at Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin raised her hand and shook her palm: "No, it's a disgusting stone."
Disgusting stones?
Duan Xiaofan was very puzzled. If it was a stone, why did his brother have to dig it out of the monsters' brains?
Duan Ziyue and the other two remained silent upon hearing this, their eyes flashing with an ambiguous light.
"Let's leave first, this place will probably be filled with zombies soon!" Liu Xin said, coming back to her senses.
Xiao Jin nodded; she thought so too.
Without further ado, the group decided to head to the official safe zone first. After all this commotion, it was almost dawn anyway, so whether they slept or not didn't matter. They should just set off!
Outside the window, the night was as dark as ink, occasionally broken by the light of car headlights, illuminating the distorted and hideous faces of zombies.
This time it was Duan Chenghong's turn to drive, with Xiao Jin in the passenger seat, mainly responsible for guarding and clearing the area.
Along the way, they encountered many zombies. After the black rain, the zombies had indeed evolved. Not only did their numbers surge, but level 2 and 3 zombies also appeared from time to time.
In addition, there are many zombie animals and superhuman animals.
In such situations, Xiao Jin usually gets out of the car to handle it. The number of crystal cores in her hands continues to increase, and the mission completion rate is quite impressive.
However, when they were halfway to the safe zone, a small incident occurred among them.
That's good news!
It was Xiao Jin who first discovered it.
She has a very sensitive sense of human body temperature, so she immediately noticed the abnormality when Duan Chenghong and Duan Ziyue's body temperature rose.
"What! Superpower awakening?"
Liu Xin stared in disbelief at her daughter, whose face was flushed, and her husband, who was sitting next to her in a daze, thinking she had misheard.
"No way, how could this happen so suddenly..."
"It didn't happen suddenly." Xiao Jin took the steering wheel back.
"The black rain carries a virus that invades and modifies the human body, thus creating zombies."
"And liquids evaporate..."
Xiao Jin glanced at Liu Xin, whose face had turned pale, and continued, "You're right. Zombies are failed attempts at modification, but if successful, they will awaken superpowers."
