Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space

Chapter 706: Anomaly, The Zombie King ( 2 )

After the call ended, Shen Jinzhe asked, "Brother Feng, did something happen to your brother?"

"It’s nothing. He asked me to get some high-level crystal cores for him. Maybe he wants to attempt a breakthrough."

Hearing this, Shen Jinzhe nodded and stopped asking. The two of them were busy killing surrounding zombies and had no time for idle chat.

Unlike the red zones in Zhuji City, the red zones in this city were filled with level 2 zombies, and the number of level 3 zombies was high.

In this red zone, they already killed at least 3,000 level 3 zombies, but the number was not decreasing. It was as if they were facing a zombie horde.

Although they were also at level 3, the zombies didn’t feel pain or fatigue. They also had more stamina and strength, making prolonged battles disadvantageous for the Phantom Team.

Fortunately, they had a large supply of water created by their Sister-in-law. Consuming it could help them recover their ability’s energy and stamina. If they were exhausted, they would absorb the crystal cores she provided.

Compared to normal crystal cores, the ones distributed to them had clearer color and purer energy, making them easier to absorb and able to contain more energy.

While the members were tired, the constant draining and recovery of energy pushed them to continue expanding their energy pool, and they already felt the barrier to the next level loosening.

Although they were delighted by their progress, they were also worried about the strange situation. It was very rare for so many level 3 zombies to gather at the same place.

After killing another level 3 zombie, Zhang Yuan looked at his mentee and asked, "Ruanyi, can you continue?"

Su Ruanyi’s forehead and back were covered with cold sweat. She felt a severe headache and tried to hold on, but the dizziness was too much. With a pale face, she gasped for breath and said, "Vice Captain, I’m afraid I can’t continue."

Noticing her condition, Zhang Yuan raised his hand and created a dome-like earth barrier around them. Holding her wrist, he used his energy to check her body.

"Are you a fool?" he asked with a hint of anger.

Su Ruanyi wanted to retort, but she was too weak and could only lean against his chest with her eyes closed.

"Next time, stop when you’re close to your limit. Tell me when you’re tired. Do you understand?"

Her mind was already starting to blur, but she could still hear him, so she nodded weakly. Before she lost consciousness, she felt warm energy enter her body. Soon after, the dizziness lessened, and she slowly regained her senses.

Ten minutes later, she felt sudden pain shoot through her entire body. She bit her lips and let out a groan.

"Concentrate your energy and circulate it around your body. Don’t be afraid. I’m here. Nothing will happen to you," Zhang Yuan said as he absorbed the Sthanam crystal’s energy and transferred it to her.

She was too weak to guide the energy herself, so he had to help her using his own energy. At this moment, he was feeling the tearing pain in his body due to the backlash from Su Ruanyi’s uncontrolled energy.

When the members saw the dome-like barrier, they became worried. Qin Luzi checked his map and said, "Su Ruanyi is in the process of breaking through."

Hearing this, the members heaved a sigh of relief and guarded the earth barrier, making sure she was undisturbed.

Although he sounded calm, Qin Luzi was actually worried. He looked at the flickering green dot on his map and frowned deeply.

Usually, when ability-users were undergoing a breakthrough, the green dot representing them would expand slowly and become larger when they leveled up.

There had never been a situation where the dot flickered like this. The only explanation was that Su Ruanyi’s situation was not promising and that she was in danger.

Reaching this conclusion, he turned to Feng Yun and said, "Feng Yun, create a spatial space around them. They can’t be disturbed right now."

"Understood!"

Receiving the order, Feng Yun raised his hands and created a spatial space.

After long-term training, he now had very good control over his space-type ability. If not for the Captain’s order to keep the zombies’ corpses as fuel, he would have created a space crack and let the zombies be sucked away.

As the night deepened, the red moon shone brighter in the dark sky. The red moonlight illuminated the area dimly as the sound of battle continued in the distance.

Standing on top of a tall electricity tower, a young man stared into the distance, where the Phantom Team was fighting the zombies. His eyes were pure black with bright blue pupils.

As the wind blew, his long hair fluttered, exposing the dark blue veins covering half of his face. The veins expanded from his right eye down to his neck.

He stood there unmoving for a long time, as if he were searching for something. When he saw a black flame tower shoot toward the sky and expand at a fast speed, a flicker flashed in his eyes.

The next moment, he disappeared from that place.

At the same time, Qin Luzi suddenly shouted, "Everyone, be careful! A level 6 zombie is heading our way!"

BOOM!

Before his words fell, a shadow flashed, and he was sent flying more than 50 meters. Due to the force of the attack, Qin Luzi hit the ground, leaving a deep hole and a long crack.

"Cough!" He coughed up a mouthful of blood, and his face turned pale from the pain.

"Brother Qin!"

"Old Qin!"

The members were shocked by the sudden attack. Yin Yusheng rushed over to check on his condition. At the same time, the members regrouped instantly while a thick cloud of dust rose due to the energy wave, hindering their sight.

At this moment, Yin Yusheng had already carried Qin Luzi on his back and regrouped with the team.
