Su Yao didn't have time to think much and quickly checked the system notification. It turned out that the weak point of these mutated creatures was at the back of their necks, where there was a connection point to their energy cores. Attacking this point would cause massive damage.
"Everyone, focus your attacks on the back of their necks!" Su Yao shouted, launching the first attack. She manipulated her ice-based abilities, conjuring several sharp ice blades, which shot towards the mutated creatures charging at the front like arrows. The ice blades struck their targets precisely, sending up bursts of energy.
Upon hearing this, the father changed tactics as well. He gathered his strength power into his arms and charged towards the horde of beasts. Each punch carried immense force and precise angle, striking the back of the mutated creatures' necks, knocking them back or killing them outright. The mother, from the rear, used her healing abilities to restore the strength of the injured team members, while simultaneously using her rapidly growing plant vines to trip up approaching mutated creatures, buying time and space for the fighters at the front.
Under Su Yao's leadership, the team gradually regained their footing and began to launch an organized counterattack against the mutated creatures. After a fierce life-or-death struggle, they finally succeeded in repelling the beast tide. Su Yao picked up the giant ape's crystal core, which contained immense energy. She knew this would greatly enhance their abilities.
Upon returning to the Alliance base, Su Yao and her family entered a state of secluded cultivation. Guided by the system, Su Yao began absorbing the energy of the giant ape crystal core. During this process, she discovered that the crystal core not only enhanced the strength of her abilities but also broadened their application. Her ice-type abilities evolved further, allowing her to create ice domains. Within these domains, the power of her ice attacks doubled, and she could freely manipulate the form and temperature of the ice.
After absorbing the crystal core's energy, the father's power shield became more flexible and versatile. He could split the shield into multiple smaller shields, each protecting allies or launching multi-angle attacks on enemies. The mother's healing abilities also gained new power; she could transform her healing energy into an offensive form, damaging evil creatures while simultaneously healing her allies.
However, during her cultivation, Su Yao's system detected a mysterious signal fluctuation. This fluctuation seemed to originate from a distant seaside location, a once-thriving metropolis now shrouded in darkness and danger. After analysis, Su Yao deduced that this signal might be related to the source of the apocalypse and the key to controlling the energy of the crystal core.
Su Yao informed the alliance members of this news, and they unanimously decided to send an elite team to the coast to explore. Su Yao's family naturally formed the core of the team. They prepared supplies and equipment and embarked on their new journey.
The journey to the sea was fraught with hardship and danger. The road was blocked by various obstacles, and mutated birds frequently circled overhead. They not only had to deal with attacks from zombies, but also had to be wary of evil superhumans lurking in the shadows.
While traversing an abandoned industrial area, they encountered a horde of mechanical puppets controlled by malevolent superhumans. These puppets were enormous, equipped with various powerful weapons, and possessed immense offensive capabilities. Su Yao used her psychic abilities to disrupt the controllers' signals, while her father charged into the horde, using his power shield to deflect attacks and seeking opportunities to break the puppets' joints. Her mother provided support from behind, healing his injuries and strengthening his defenses.
After a fierce battle, they successfully broke through the industrial zone. As they drew closer to the sea, the fluctuations of the mysterious signal grew stronger. Su Yao was filled with anticipation and tension. She knew that an unprecedented challenge awaited them at the seaside, but in order to uncover the truth of the apocalypse and save this shattered world, they had to forge ahead, even if endless darkness and danger lay ahead.
