Suddenly, Yan Yu's nerves tensed up, and a sense of danger as if she was being stared at by a poisonous snake hit her brain. She quickly followed the direction of the sight and looked into the distance, but she only saw a huge army of zombies, and did not find any strange higher-level zombies.
No, the view from the city wall is too poor.
Li Qing used a mental shock wave, stunning all the dozen or so level III and IV zombies in front of her for a moment. Xiao Xu behind her immediately seized the opportunity, activated his supernatural powers, and cooperated to kill these zombies.
Li Qing had been suffering from a severe headache due to the overdraw of her mental strength. In addition, she no longer had any mental crystal cores to recover from the damage, and her face was as pale as paper.
Seeing this, Yan Yu swung the flaming double blades and cut off the heads of dozens of zombies blocking his way. He had no time to pay attention to the mechanical sound of the system coming from his ears. He jumped to Li Qing's side and stuffed a lot of energy supplements into her.
"Try this, it should work for you."
Li Qing took it, opened the reagent bottle without hesitation and took a few gulps. Her face immediately regained some color.
Yan Yu took out another twenty bottles and handed them to her: "Drink a few more bottles. This stuff has a time limit and will last about 30 minutes. Remember to refill it in time."
Yan Yu was not worried about the other four people, including Miao Jinyan, except Li Qing, because they had many crystal cores with the same attributes and could attract and replenish them at any time.
Li Qing downed five more bottles in a row. Feeling the needle-like pain in her head ease a lot, she spoke nervously, "Boss, if we keep fighting like this, our base will definitely lose. I just faintly sensed the presence of a high-level psychic zombie. It must be the leader of this zombie wave!"
The zombie army is endless and has an absolute advantage in numbers. They are monsters that are tireless and fearless of pain. They only know how to attack the base and kill anyone who stands in their way.
On the other hand, at the Xianfeng base, the number of psychics who can participate in the battle is very limited, and each of them has overdrawn their psychics in the long battle. Even if they have crystal cores to help recover, they cannot recover to their peak state.
Moreover, facing the overwhelming zombie tide, the psychological pressure can be imagined. Many people with special abilities and ordinary people were frightened and unable to withstand their attacks. In the end, they either died or became one of them.
Not only outside the base, but also inside the base was messed up by the flying zombies. There were screams and howls of pain everywhere. The logistics team, which was originally functioning well, screamed and fled in all directions. The psychics on the city wall had their supplies cut off and could only fight alone, and the pressure increased dramatically.
The situation is very serious.
If this continues, the city gates will be breached within an hour. By then, the zombie horde will flood into the base like a tide, and ordinary people will all become zombie food or be infected. It will be the end of us!
Yan Yu's expression was solemn: "Is there anyone with flying or wind abilities in the base? I will go down and find that high-level psychic zombie myself."
Li Qing was shocked. Entering a zombie swarm alone was no different from going to die. Even if Yan Yu was powerful, he was no match for so many zombies.
She opened her mouth to persuade him, but seeing Yan Yu's serious expression and a resolute look that said "You don't need to persuade me", she had to swallow her original words with a heavy heart.
When he spoke again, his voice choked slightly: "Okay, I'll go get the captain of the Flying Dragon Team."
Zhang Feilong, the captain of the Flying Dragon Team, is a level V peak wind-type mutant. He had received favors from Yao Bin in the past, so after learning the truth about the odor blocker, he did not choose to exclude his widow Li Qing. He was the first person to tacitly agree that Li Qing would become the leader of the base.
As the captain of the first team of Xianfeng Base and the highest-level psychic except Miao Jinyan, with him taking the lead, Li Qing and others took over the base much more smoothly.
Of course, this is also thanks to the fact that Li Qing privately promised Zhang Feilong a lot of benefits the night before the incident. No matter how great the favor is, it is not as moving as money.
Moreover, if Zhang Feilong really cared deeply about favors, he would not have chosen to stand idly by when Li Qing and the Bailu team were being bullied by others.
Furthermore, by observing the Egret Squad's battles with the provocateurs, Zhang Feilong discovered Yan Yu, a figure whose strength he couldn't fathom. With Yan Yu's support, the cautious Zhang Feilong was even less likely to act rashly without assurance.
Since he was willing to lie dormant under Sun Lijun and his men for a year or two, he could naturally continue to lie dormant under Li Qing for a while, and then take action after he had figured out Yan Yu's background.
After Yan Yu came into contact with Zhang Feilong, he reminded Li Qing that for such a person, it is best to promise him huge benefits first, and then slowly find ways to divide his power, otherwise it is likely to become a disaster in the future.
If you want to hold your position as the leader of the base securely, you must understand the art of checks and balances.
Zhang Feilong quickly arrived at where Yan Yu was.
Yan Yu didn't waste any words: "Use your supernatural power to send me over there." She pointed to a protruding ruin two or three kilometers away from the city wall.
It had originally been a village, abandoned after the apocalypse. Patrols had violently demolished the buildings to widen their field of vision, but there were still many blind spots. The sight that had just made her feel so dangerous had come from there.
She needed to go and investigate in person to see if she could find the advanced spiritual zombie and find the key to breaking the deadlock.
Zhang Feilong looked at her in surprise, his mind racing, and he quickly agreed without asking for the reason.
He couldn't see through Yan Yu, and his vigilance against her had already reached its highest point. This time, she took the initiative to propose going into the zombie tide. If successful, everyone would be happy. If failed, those high-level zombies could help him eliminate a hidden danger. No matter how he thought about it, it was a win-win situation.
If the zombie tide really destroyed the Xianfeng base, he could just break out with his men. After all, he still had a trump card in his hand that could save his life.
"OK, get ready." Zhang Feilong used his special ability to generate two wind vortexes under Yan Yu's feet, and took her straight to the designated location.
Seeing Yan Yu flying overhead, many level III and level IV mutant zombies attacked one after another, like a dense net, but Zhang Feilong dodged all of them by controlling the wind vortex.
Zhang Feilong was unable to help with the super attacks of some level V zombies, so Yan Yu simply wielded the flaming double blades and chopped them off one by one.
In less than five minutes, Yan Yu stopped above the designated location, flipped over and jumped down. The moment her toes landed, the perfect concealment effect of the Biling skirt was activated, and her body and breath disappeared from the zombies' perception.
The high-level zombies who were chasing Yan Yu to kill him were dazed for a moment, but soon followed the instructions in their minds and attacked the human base on a large scale.
There is the blood and human flesh they desire. Charge, kill those living people and make them all their food!
The perfect concealment of the Biling Skirt can only last for half an hour. Yan Yu must defeat Guan Ling, who is hiding in the army of hundreds of thousands of zombies, within half an hour. The pressure is really great.
She took a deep breath and calmed herself. The more urgent the situation, the faster her brain worked and the calmer she became.
Yan Yu quickly observed the bodies and performances of the zombies of various levels around her, and finally she really found some common points.
Yan Yu had discovered before that the higher the level of the zombie, the lower the degree of body decay. Moreover, the mutant zombies above level III basically have intelligence. They no longer rely solely on their bloodthirsty instincts and have learned to cooperate with each other. Level V zombies have even learned to set traps to lure humans to their doorstep.
It is conceivable that if they are allowed to evolve further, they might become another highly intelligent species. That would be the end of all mankind.
Back to the present, Yan Yu noticed that there were faint purple vortices flickering in the blood-red eyes of those level IV and level V zombies, which was a sign of being controlled by high-level psychic abilities.
Yan Yu suddenly recalled that when Shen Yiran tried to control her, the spiritual vortex in her eyes was exactly opposite to the vortex in the eyes of these controlled zombies.
In other words, if you find a zombie with the vortex in its eyes in the opposite direction, it must be the initiator of the entire zombie tide!
However, the workload involved was enormous. Even if someone were given a full day, let alone half an hour, it would be impossible to select the target from the hundreds of thousands of troops before them. Moreover, once the zombie king's eyes met, it would most likely be controlled by it immediately. Only Yan Yu would dare to make such a bold decision.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Yan Yu resisted the urge to rush forward to kill the high-level zombies, and went to the highest point of the ruins to quickly investigate.
Time passed minute by minute, and seeing that the counterattacks of the psychics on the city wall were getting smaller and smaller, and the light emitted by the psychics was getting weaker and weaker, Yan Yu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
Perfect Concealment Countdown 00:03:22
00:02:05
00:00:20
Beads of sweat the size of beans slid down her cheeks, soaking a small piece of clothing at her collarbone. Yan Yu's nerves were as tense as a string, and she changed her position more than a dozen times looking for that extremely cunning guy.
Finally, in the last ten seconds, Yan Yu locked onto his target: a short middle-aged man wearing a black long coat and trousers, deliberately covering his intact skin. He always hid behind level IV or level V zombies, using their cover to observe the zombies attacking the city from time to time, and then controlled some level V zombies to cooperate, focusing on attacking those high-level psychics to quickly weaken human strength.
Yan Yu discovered it purely by chance.
She didn't actually see the direction of the vortex in its eyes, but whenever her sight passed over it, it would always be accurately swept back. Although the Biling skirt had prevented it from detecting anyone in her direction, it still sent waves of high-level zombies towards her position.
After repeating this twice, Yan Yu knew that she had found the right person.
Taking advantage of the last twenty seconds, Yan Yu took advantage of the momentum to jump up and approached the high-level spiritual zombie as fast as lightning. He raised the flaming double blades high and chopped it straight in the face.
Psychic zombies are naturally sensitive. The moment they sensed the murderous intent, they immediately ordered dozens of level IV zombies around them to come and protect them. Two of the level IV zombies died on the spot, but the psychic zombie was unharmed.
She must fight quickly and decisively, otherwise once she loses her stealth effect, she will be caught in a bitter battle with the zombies. No matter how strong she is, who doesn't know that ants can kill elephants?
Besides, she was not facing "ants" but extremely dangerous zombies. If she was caught by a high-level zombie, she would be infected immediately, which was more terrifying than immediate death.
Yan Yu gritted his teeth and swung the weapon in his hand like the wind. Almost no moves could be seen. Only a flash of light and shadow flew by, and the zombies behind him turned into ashes and disappeared one after another.
[Successfully killed a Level 50 (IV) zombie, achieving a higher-level kill. Rewards: Experience +2000, Constitution +22, Agility +20, Spirit +35, Gold +100]
[Successfully killed a Level 50 (IV) zombie, achieving a higher-level kill. Rewards: Experience +2000, Strength +20, Constitution +20, Agility +35, Gold +98]
…
The system's mechanical sound rang seven times in total, and seven golden treasure chests fell. Yan Yu didn't even bother to pick them up.
Now, killing level II zombies can no longer bring Yan Yu any experience points or other rewards. The drop rate of killing level III zombies has also dropped sharply, to less than one twentieth. The system prompt will only appear once you kill four level IV zombies.
00:00:00
The countdown on the Biling skirt was reset to zero, and the perfect concealment special effect immediately entered a cooling period.
The moment Yan Yu appeared, the mental zombie let out an excited roar, its eyes were strange, and then a mental attack like a steel needle pierced her brain, causing her to suddenly spit out blood.
"Mmm!"
Oh no, this psychic zombie is at least level VI! A simple psychic attack had knocked out a full 800 of her psychic points, more than double the damage of Shen Yiran's full-strength attack. If it weren't for the equipment that could enhance her psychic attributes, she would have been dead by now!
The zombies around her swallowed Yan Yu's figure like a sea of water. Li Qing, who saw this scene from afar on the city wall, screamed in pain: "No!!!"
