As the flames blazed, the zombie in the air, which had just managed to stretch out its gray-black claws, paused before being pierced in the head by two metal pieces.
Hang Zixuan's face changed and he hurriedly checked the suitcase in his arms. Sure enough, he found a small bump in the corner and an almost invisible gap there.
"The box is broken." Hang Zixuan said hurriedly, "They are coming for the crystal core!"
The ability of that special zombie was indeed to make other zombies avoid it, but when it died, the crystal core it left behind, although it still had that ability, also became a treasure coveted by other spiritual zombies.
"Fei Bai..." Hang Zixuan also discovered Zhu Yuanqing's situation. The zombies that were previously blocked by the zombie corpses now bypassed those obstacles very wisely and surrounded them.
"Teacher, let's use the instrument!" Hang Zixuan shouted to Chen Mu, "The box is broken. Even if we put the crystal core in space, it won't be isolated."
"Teacher's instrument, combined with this crystal core, can interfere with the zombies' cognition to a certain extent. We must act quickly, otherwise more and more spiritual zombies will be attracted, and Feibai will be under increasing pressure!"
Hang Zixuan knew what was most important to Chen Mu, and he emphasized Zhu Yuanqing's situation. On the one hand, it was because it was indeed the fact, but on the other hand, Kong Wenhan's supernatural power had reached its limit, and now the only one who could protect everyone was this moody guy.
"What do you need?" Chen Mu's expression was stern, but he also knew that what Hang Zixuan said made sense.
He couldn't ensure that Zhu Yuanqing would be safe before he found those zombies, so no matter how anxious he was, he could only follow Hang Zixuan's advice.
"We need electricity." Mr. Zhao pointed to a villa on the side of the road. "We need to go in and connect the power to the equipment."
At this moment, they were blocked from all directions and could only find the nearest villa to hide in.
Zhu Yuanqing was held in Chen Mu's arms, vaguely maintaining awareness of the outside world, and trying his best to use his mental power to hold back the three spiritual zombies to prevent them from controlling more ordinary zombies.
"And then?" Chen Mu took out the instrument and watched as Mr. Zhao and other researchers connected the wires one by one. He was helpless in the face of Zhu Yuanqing's pale face.
"Zihang, input the data!" Old Zhao carefully placed the pure white crystal core, and after urging, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"The next step is to wait." Old Zhao felt uncomfortable looking at Zhu Yuanqing's appearance, and one guess after another emerged in his mind.
"No, this is not right, he is too calm..." Thinking of the painful expressions of those people after being attacked by mental power, Old Zhao clapped his hands and said hurriedly.
"Do you have any crystal cores? Let this young man absorb them all. Since he can stand up to those zombies, his mental strength should be fine. It's just that his level is not high enough!"
"If the level is not high enough, use crystal cores to fill it up!"
When Chen Mu heard this, all the crystal cores in the space poured out at once, forming a mountain about thirty to forty centimeters high on the ground.
The number was so large that the others were stunned, but Chen Mu put them into Zhu Yuanqing's hands one by one without any regret, watching the crystal cores lose their luster one by one, and then put in another handful.
"It works..." Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief and brushed away the loose hair on Zhu Yuanqing's forehead. He noticed that his frown had relaxed a little, and his heart finally settled down.
Zhu Yuanqing actually remained conscious, but all his mental power was used to restrain the three strange mental powers, so he couldn't spare the attention to the outside world.
His head ached dully, partly because of the three attacks, but more because his brain could not accept such an impact.
Commonly known as, the hardware can't carry it.
After the energy from the crystal cores was transmitted into his brain, Zhu Yuanqing's pressure was relieved a lot, and he was able to sense the movements in the outside world.
"How much more is left?"
“…67%”
"Zombies are coming!" "Bang!"
"Stop making noise! I'll sew your mouth shut!"
…
Zhu Yuanqing could clearly hear the frightened cries for help from others, Chen Mu's fierce voice, and his hand gently stroking his forehead.
So light and gentle, no effort required at all.
Perhaps feeling uneasy, the three mental forces obviously couldn't help themselves. From the occasional cooperation in the beginning to the chaotic rush now, they seemed to be getting more and more impatient.
Zhu Yuanqing seized the opportunity, ignored the increasingly intense pain, and quickly mobilized his mental power, smashing it all towards them.
The three mental powers were knocked out of his mind and circled around Zhu Yuanqing. He couldn't find any flaws, so he had to leave.
"Fei Bai, Fei Bai!" Almost the next second after Chen Mu saw Zhu Yuanqing's expression improve slightly, he saw his face turn pale again. Then the hand on his body grabbed the corner of his clothes, and blue veins appeared on the back of his hand.
His heart sank suddenly, falling into an unknown abyss.
Zhu Yuanqing opened his eyes and was surprised to find that Chen Mu's eyes were red and the hands holding him were shaking.
"I'm fine..." Zhu Yuanqing closed his eyes and relaxed, patted his body gently, and tried to sit up from his arms.
Chen Mu supported him, supporting his back with one hand and continuously placing crystal cores into Zhu Yuanqing's palm with the other hand.
Zhu Yuanqing did not refuse as his eyes swept across a large area of dull crystal cores scattered on the ground.
Looking up, he saw that the door and windows were all cracked, and several metal scimitars were placed across the windows and door. People came in one after another and fell. Occasionally, a zombie came in, but was shot down by Kong Wenhan.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw he woke up.
The survivors were frightened by Chen Mu's evil look just now, while Hang Zixuan and Kong Wenhan were simply delighted.
"There are three psychic zombies outside." Zhu Yuanqing said in a hoarse voice, describing what he knew so far.
"We can't hold out here for long. Most of the zombies here are ordinary zombies trapped by Yi An. If the zombies with special abilities come here after a while, we really won't be able to escape."
Zhu Yuanqing's lips turned pale, but his eyes remained sharp: "Hang Zixuan, how long can the equipment keep running?"
Hang Zixuan pushed his glasses up, his face serious: "As long as there is electricity and the instrument is not damaged, it can keep running."
Perhaps due to his keen sense as a researcher, Hang Zixuan looked at Zhu Yuanqing with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes. He added, "This is the only complete instrument that has been brought out. Its effective range is approximately fifteen meters centered on it."
"However," Hang Zixuan looked at the value that was about to reach 100%, "if something goes wrong midway, you might need a researcher to help fix it."
"Ding...Connectivity reached 100%."
Kong Wenhan was confused by their conversation, but Chen Mu's pupils shrank, his heart trembled violently, and he grasped Zhu Yuanqing's shoulders, his voice almost trembling: "You want to stay as bait?"
Zhu Yuanqing smiled lightly, removed his hand, and said firmly: "Yes."
