Before he could even choose a target, someone grabbed him by the clothes and lifted him up.
Lu Ping tried to turn around to see who it was, but couldn't. He could only desperately kick his legs, pleading, "Put me down!"
The fourth brother chuckled, "Look, you can't even fight back against me, yet you want a gun? With your size, can you even hold a gun?"
Lu Ping retorted weakly, "I'll change back, you just wait!"
The fourth brother snorted twice, "I don't care if you change back or not. Anyway, in your current state, having a gun is useless."
The fourth brother put Lü Ping on the ground and then pressed his index finger down on Lü Ping's head so that he couldn't move.
Lu Ping was so angry he was practically fuming.
"Alright, let's not waste any more time. Let's get going." Yun Jian glanced at the fight between the two, took a pistol and put it away close to his body, and spoke calmly.
Seeing that Lü Ping was trying to cling to Yun Jian again, Bai Yu quickly grabbed Lü Ping before he could do so and put him in his pocket.
Lü Ping: "..."
Why does it feel like everyone is on guard against him?
The group began to head towards the location marked on the map.
However, to their surprise, they encountered charred corpses not far from where they had gone.
They were always in groups of three or five.
At this point, Lü Ping stopped shouting and simply hid his head in Bai Yu's pocket, pretending to be dead.
Nobody cared about him.
He originally thought that dealing with these charred corpses would take a while, at least requiring Yun Jian and the others to exert some effort, but apart from the first few loud noises, Lü Ping did not sense any major movements from Bai Yu.
He was both surprised and puzzled. Could it be that it had already given up so quickly?
They were carrying guns, yet their combat effectiveness was so poor!
If Bai Yu gets killed by the charred corpse, he'd better get out of here as soon as possible...
As soon as he peeked out, Lü Ping was startled by what he saw.
The six charred corpses, claws raised, all froze, their postures frozen as if about to attack.
His gaze shifted downwards, and he saw that Yun Jian and the others were each holding a large iron ball, with the other end of the ball resting on the charred corpse.
He immediately recognized what it was.
Energy storage sphere!
But... this size looks much bigger than the ones in the store.
He estimated that such a large energy storage sphere could store electricity for at least several tens of seconds.
Ten points for every second of electricity, hundreds of points for tens of seconds, plus the price of the energy storage spheres, and they have so many...
Lu Ping became more and more excited as he calculated; he was truly extravagant beyond belief.
Just when he thought Yun Jian and the others were about to finish off the charred corpse, he heard Yun Jian suddenly shout, "Run!"
Then... Lü Ping was so jostled around that he almost threw up his dinner from the night before.
After a long while, the group finally stopped after shaking off the charred corpse.
Lu Ping popped his head out of his pocket. "Why don't you deal with those charred corpses before you leave? Keeping them around is just asking for trouble."
The fourth brother rolled his eyes at him, "We'd like to solve it, but we'd have to have the ability to do so."
Lü Ping: "Don't you guys have energy storage spheres? They can electrocute people, right?"
Yun glanced at him, seemingly unwilling to elaborate on the matter, and coldly replied, "Not enough power."
Lu Ping wanted to say how could such a large energy storage ball not have enough power, but before he could speak, Bai Yu pressed his head down and stuffed it back into his pocket.
At the same time, he received a message from Bai Yu on his screen: "Are you stupid? You used up all your electricity as soon as you left the house. What if you encounter charred corpses later?"
His words were soon proven true.
Not long after they left, they encountered another group of charred corpses.
Four.
Yun Jian gestured to the others, preparing to use the same trick again. However, when they took out the energy storage ball, the charred corpses took a step back, barely dodging their attack.
Suddenly, a bad feeling rose in Yun Jian's heart.
The others also sensed something was wrong to varying degrees.
The charred corpses from before didn't care what tricks you had and just charged straight at you, but now they're encountering ones that can dodge the charged orbs.
This is not a good sign.
Xiao Zhen was quick-witted and took out the prop she had just bought. Instantly, a stream of water was sprayed onto the charred corpse, turning the water into ice before the corpse could retreat.
The charred corpse was then restrained from moving.
These charred corpses were particularly unwilling to accept their fate; even though they were frozen, you could still hear cracking sounds coming from their joints.
It seemed like they could break through the ice any second.
This prediction was confirmed when the first crack appeared on the ice.
Yun Jian quickly took two steps back, and the others exchanged glances before tacitly leaving.
Once they were out of the charred corpse's pursuit range, everyone stopped to rest, their faces all looking grim.
Bai Yu lifted the corner of his t-shirt and fanned himself, "Don't you guys feel like these charred corpses seem to have gotten stronger?"
Yun Jian nodded, his expression grave: "Yes, it can not only dodge attacks, but its strength has also increased."
Bai Yu added, "The number has also increased, and today we encountered several of them together, in groups."
Yun Jian touched the energy storage ball in his hand, frowning. "I feel like they're evolving."
After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
"If there are more and more charred corpses, then the players' survival space will be compressed." At this point, everyone understood what he meant.
If we want to continue to survive here, we must get rid of these charred corpses.
Bai Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead. "But these charred corpses are too resilient; our electrical reserves are simply not enough."
Yun Jian looked up into the distance and stood up first. "Our goal this time is to take over the nitrate mine. We can discuss the charred corpses when we get back."
She had a premonition that if the charred corpses were allowed to continue evolving, it would become increasingly difficult for them to leave the camp.
The others didn't want to linger outside any longer, so they quickly got up and continued on their way.
But to their surprise, the reality was even worse than they had anticipated.
The distance from the camp to the nitrate mine was only five kilometers, but they encountered five waves of charred corpses. Their energy storage ball was almost empty, and the charred corpses they encountered along the way were getting stronger and stronger, which made them very uneasy.
Even Lü Ping, who had always been carefree, quieted down at this moment.
Yun Jian glanced at the small hill in front of him on the map a few times, then handed the map to the others, saying, "This is the small hill in front of us."
Bai Yu took the map, glanced at it, and confirmed that it was correct.
After catching their breath, the group decided to go to the edge of the hill to investigate. They had only taken a couple of steps when the familiar smell of burning filled their nostrils.
The group exchanged a look of utter despair. Here we go again!
Bai Yu skillfully took out the energy storage ball, and the others also took out their weapons. The charred corpses did not make any rash moves when they saw them, but just watched them quietly.
The two sides faced off in silence.
Suddenly, a "crack" sound shattered this balance.
