Chapter 611 Replication Failure
Copying failed.
Jiang Fan had just moved away from Ling Ran when he heard the system's voice.
"What? Copying failed? System, what's going on?"
[The cause is being investigated.]
The cause is unknown.
"Ominous? I went through all that trouble and you're telling me it's ominous?" Jiang Fan was furious. "I don't accept that reason. System, check again and see what the cause is?"
[System self-check in progress.]
During the system's self-check, Ling Ran looked at Jiang Fan. This time, she wasn't just looking at him normally; she was using her Word Spirit ability to look at him.
Jiang Fan also felt Ling Ran's gaze. Before he could figure out how to explain, he met Ling Ran's dark eyes, which were neither sad nor happy, as if they were looking at him, yet also as if they weren't.
More importantly, he now had the illusion that he was completely naked in front of Ling Ran.
It was as if everything about him was laid bare, and Ling Ran saw right through him.
This feeling is very unpleasant.
Jiang Fan tried to break Ling Ran's gaze, so he took the initiative to speak: "Ling Ran, I didn't mean any harm. Actually, I came here quietly just to see if there was a chance to play the hero and save the damsel in distress. I didn't expect you to find out."
Ling Ran looked at him, raised an eyebrow slightly, and naturally didn't believe his nonsense.
She had just channeled her energy into her eyes, but she could clearly see something in Jiang Fan's mind.
This thing has immense energy; the power of rules that Jiang Fan just emitted came from this chip-like device.
Of course, this amount of power from the rules is extremely small, only a tiny bit. If it weren't for Ling Ran, other cultivators who haven't been cultivating for long might not even be able to sense it.
Even so, this is the power of the rules, something that no Tom, Dick, or Harry can compare to.
As for this chip?
Having read many novels about this world, Ling Ran immediately made a connection: Could it be the legendary system?
On several occasions when he met Jiang Fan, he seemed very eager to touch her. Today, he went through all this trouble just to touch her.
Ling Ran had several guesses about this behavior, but they still needed to be confirmed.
She said to Jiang Fan, "So that's how it is. I misunderstood you. But I don't need your help. Also, it seems you haven't dealt with the level eight zombie king."
As soon as Ling Ran finished speaking, Pei Yi and the others in the front row could no longer hold on.
He quickly shouted, "Jiang Fan, come and help!"
This sixth brother, he really knows how to thank people.
They said they were going to kill the level 8 zombie king, but they ended up going around in circles and hiding in the back.
I really suspect he did it on purpose, wanting them to be killed by zombies.
Jiang Fan didn't care what Ling Ran was thinking and immediately took action.
The first few thousand were instantly frozen into ice sculptures. With a wave of his hand, a rain of fire swept over the zombies behind the ice sculptures, instantly turning the vacuum zone around everyone from one meter to three meters.
His superpowers are powerful, giving the impression that he is at least level nine or higher. Most importantly, this Jiang Fan seems to possess quite a variety of superpowers.
The most types of ability users they had ever seen before were only three types.
But what Jiang Fan is showing now are six types of superpowers: mental, spatial, flight, invisibility, ice, and fire.
With Jiang Fan's help, the group, who had just been unable to hold off the retreating zombies, suddenly felt much more relaxed.
With his strength, wiping out ten or twenty thousand zombies wouldn't be a problem.
As for anything else, no one knows, since they don't know Jiang Fan's exact strength.
Just as everyone was catching their breath, a zombie darted through the horde of zombies at great speed, so fast that it went completely unnoticed among the thousands of zombies.
By the time everyone noticed, the zombie was already right in front of them.
"It's the Zombie King!"
Pei Yi, who was at the front, saw it immediately and quickly stepped back.
The level eight zombie king is easy to recognize; his appearance is almost identical to that of a human, except for his eyes with white pupils.
Pei Yi waved his hand, unleashing a rain of fire. To his surprise, the zombie king neither dodged nor avoided the attack, but instead reached out its claws to grab at Pei Yi.
The fire rain covered a large area of zombies, with the zombie king being the most affected. All the other zombies were reduced to ashes, but the zombie king remained unharmed, as if it were made of steel.
Pei Yi was no match for the zombie king, and even Gu Zijing and the others who wanted to help were powerless to do so.
The eyes saw it, but the body's reaction was not as fast as the zombie king's speed; it was almost a matter of a split second.
"Bang--"
A shield of light suddenly appeared around Pei Yi, and the zombie king's claws struck the shield.
When one claw attack failed, the zombie king struck the light shield again, but the light shield was so sturdy that not even a crack could be seen.
The zombie king seemed to be angry, and abandoned Pei Yi, turning around to beat up Gu Zijing who was standing next to him.
The mental attack was invisible, but it only affected the zombie king for a second. The next second, the zombie king did not slow down and leaped towards Gu Zijing.
"Bang--"
The zombie king's body crashed into the light shield, making a loud noise.
"Hehehe—"
The zombie king roared angrily at the sky a few times, and then the zombies behind him rushed forward again, with seven or eight level-six zombies protecting the zombie king.
This scene, though it may seem like it takes a long time, actually lasted less than ten seconds from the moment the zombie king ran over to when he angrily called for level six zombies.
Ling Ran's voice suddenly came: "Jiang Fan, didn't you say you were here to deal with level eight zombies? Is this how you deal with them?"
The light shield was naturally placed by Ling Ran.
"I'm sorry, I didn't notice just now," Jiang Fan said apologetically.
However, if it weren't for Ling Ran, no one else would believe her.
With Jiang Fan's level of superpowers, how could he not notice an eighth-level zombie?
Could it be that his goal today is to wipe them all out here, save only the master, and then make the master completely devoted to him?
Jiang Fan made his move the next second, and the earth spikes pierced directly from under the level eight zombie king. Sensing the danger, the level eight zombie jumped away instantly, but the next second, thorny vines enveloped its entire body from all directions.
Before the level 8 zombie could break free, it was frozen again, and then a rain of fire fell, instantly killing the level 8 zombie.
From the moment Jiang Fan made his move until the level eight zombie was gone, only twenty seconds had passed. Jiang Fan's strength completely overwhelmed the level eight zombie.
This further proves that Jiang Fan could have saved Pei Yi and Gu Zijing, but he didn't.
Are they really going to kill them?
No, they have no grudge against each other, so there's absolutely no need for that.
Gu Zijing glanced at Jiang Fan, who seemed completely at ease, then lowered her eyes slightly, a different guess forming in her mind.
Rather than wanting to harm them, Jiang Fan's actions seemed more like a test.
It seems to be a test of the adult's strength.
Even before the fight started, Jiang Fan's stealthy maneuver to ambush the adult was a test.
But what was he testing?
Did he want to find out that the adults weren't as strong as him, so he just forcibly abducted a woman?
Gu Zijing quickly rejected this answer.
The way Jiang Fan looked at the adults was completely different from how he had seen them, and he always felt that he had overlooked something.
