A person who gradually becomes tired and numb is like someone mechanically performing a task. Even raising an arm or turning around feels strenuous.
Seeing that everyone was nearing their limit, Yan Bin's heart sank lower and lower.
His lips were pressed into a straight line, and he gritted his teeth. He saw his trusted confidants making mistakes one by one.
If this continues, there will be very few of these people left.
At this point, he was unaware that there was a time bomb among the zombie horde. If he had known, he wouldn't have had time to think about such trivial matters.
He persisted, fully aware that as the leader of this mission, if he became passive, everyone he was leading would be affected.
He absolutely cannot reveal even the slightest hint of his true intentions; he will persist no matter what.
Thinking of this, a flame suddenly rose in his heart, and he suddenly felt a surge of strength in his body.
"Hold on, victory will come soon."
“If we don’t kill them, they will suck our blood and eat our flesh.”
"Kill them, or we'll survive. Brothers, give it your all, victory is just around the corner!"
Yan Bin's impassioned speech did have some effect; when you're gradually losing your fighting spirit, a passionate and inspiring speech is quite necessary.
The superhumans, who had hoped for an end to the zombie outbreak, rallied their spirits and, facing the remaining hundreds of zombies, unleashed their powers once more.
The various supernatural abilities that had decreased in mid-air suddenly began to increase again, dazzlingly coming and going.
Li Xiao kept an eye on the high-level zombie that hadn't shown up yet, suspecting that it was the culprit.
You have to try to know if it's true or not.
She had an idea and called Shao Jie over. "See that zombie up ahead? The one in the blue coat. The shorter one, a little behind."
Following her words, Shao Jie looked behind the horde of zombies and finally found the zombie that Li Xiao had mentioned.
"how?"
"That was the last eighth high-level zombie. It hadn't moved at all. I suspect it was the leader who commanded these zombies."
Shao Jie, panting, somewhat understood what Li Xiao meant.
"Could you try it and see if it's the right one?"
"Okay." Shao Jie wanted to go and see even without Li Xiao saying so.
"Be careful. It can command so many zombies, it must be something special. Try it once and then run."
"Okay, I understand." After saying that, Shao Jie ran ahead like a gust of wind.
He was so fast that it was difficult to see him with the naked eye.
In less than two seconds, he had already rushed to the front of the zombie horde.
After confirming the location of the zombie that Li Xiao had mentioned, he mustered all his strength and ran in that direction.
He was so fast that he swung his knife as soon as he reached the advanced zombie.
The advanced zombie saw someone break through the defenses and reach the rear of the zombies. Sensing danger, it dodged to the side, avoiding Shao Jie's attack. It quickly opened its mouth and let out a sharp sound.
Then zombies rushed towards Shao Jie, surrounding him as if to block his way.
He was blocked from his way and stopped. At this moment, the superhuman also saw that Shao Jie had actually run into the zombie horde and couldn't help but curse loudly.
"Who's that idiot? Why are they rushing in there? Aren't they just asking for death?"
"Isn't that just courting death?"
Cheng Shaolin and Yu Yanbin also saw it and knew it was Shao Jie. They figured Shao Jie must have some purpose in going there.
Cheng Shaolin then remembered what he had told her before: there were eight high-level zombies. But at this moment, he only saw seven of them emerge, and there was still no sign of the third one.
Cheng Shaolin immediately understood that Shao Jie must have gone there for that last high-level zombie.
Thinking about it, he quickly ran towards Shao Jie's place.
In the blink of an eye, only a few seconds had passed.
Shao Jie is currently surrounded by numerous zombies. He has no choice but to stop and eliminate the zombies around him before he can go find the high-level zombie.
Breaking out of an encirclement isn't easy; even if he's fast, he can't overcome sheer numbers.
Fortunately, he persisted for two rounds before seeing Cheng Shaolin arrive.
"Shao Lin, that short zombie over there is the last high-level zombie." Shao Jie, seeing Cheng Shao Lin approaching, quickly glanced at the zombie over there and told Cheng Shao Lin.
Cheng Shaolin used several fireballs to kill most of the zombies surrounding Shao Jie, allowing Shao Jie to break through the encirclement. Cheng Shaolin then ignored Shao Jie; the last high-level zombie was the most important thing.
He charged toward the advanced zombie, burning all the zombies that tried to stop him.
When the high-level zombie saw someone rushing over and burning so many zombies to death, it realized that this person was more dangerous than the previous one.
It still had a brain; it quickly retreated, letting the lower-level zombies block its way. While retreating, it directed the zombies to block its path.
In just a few breaths, Cheng Shaolin knew that this was the one who commanded the zombies.
No two zombies have the same ability at the same time.
The odds are too small, he's sure of it.
"Go back to the back. I'll handle things here." Cheng Shaolin gave the order to Shao Jie without turning his head, and then chased after the zombie.
Shao Jie knew he was just a hindrance here. Now that he had revealed the location of the zombies, he could leave with his mission accomplished.
Thinking of this, he fiercely swung his curved blade left and right, hacking at the zombies around him until they were knocked off balance, and then quickly retreated.
After returning to the crowd like a gust of wind, everyone felt strange about this man who moved around like the wind, not understanding what he was doing running around.
One of the more curious superhumans couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing? Why are you running over there? It's so dangerous."
"Oh, I'll go check. It's okay, I can run fast." Shao Jie replied briefly and ran off.
"Huh, confirm what?"
"That was the last high-level zombie, and it should be the culprit behind this."
!!
"What!"
Even Yan Bin was astonished.
"Really, that leader?" His tone was low, and his face was stern.
"Yes, it must be the one giving the instructions," Shao Jie confirmed again.
"Alright." Yan Bin instructed Fu Yong, "You continue to fight the zombies here, I'll go ahead and deal with that advanced zombie."
Fu Yong pursed his lips and said nothing, only nodded, watching his retreating figure.
The weather remained gloomy, as if dawn would never break and the sun would never appear.
Yan Bin chased after him and saw Cheng Shaolin. Cheng Shaolin was chasing the zombie and was already surrounded by dozens of zombies.
The high-level zombies seemed very afraid of confronting him, and kept directing the low-level zombies to attack while trying to hide in the zombie horde themselves.
