Chapter 708: Anomaly, The Zombie King ( 4 )
Jiao Lizhi closed her eyes and sensed that the cold energy healing her wounds felt familiar yet unfamiliar. She thought for a while before recalling that it was similar to her fiancée’s energy.
While she healed, Jin Xuyan slashed at the zombie’s arm.
Crash!
A rotten arm fell to the ground as black blood spurted from the severed area.
The zombie only paused for a moment before launching another series of attacks. As it fought Jin Xuyan, the pale, bluish flesh around the severed area pulsed, and in less than 2 minutes, a new arm had grown out.
"Self-regeneration ability?" Jin Xuyan muttered in shock.
As if sensing his reaction, the corner of the zombie’s lips lifted into a smile. Excitement and delight mixed with murderous intent and madness were cleared in its eyes as it stared at him.
The two had already exchanged more than 300 rounds of blows, yet neither gained the upper hand.
The Phantom Team members watched their Captain with worry from a distance.
"Su Ruanyi finally broke through," Feng Yun said suddenly. With a wave of his hand, the spatial barrier surrounding Zhang Yuan and Su Ruanyi disappeared.
Seeing the situation, both were shocked. They quickly regrouped with the others and began killing zombies.
Half an hour later, Yin Yusheng let out a sigh and said with a pale face, "It’s done."
Qin Luzi groaned and stood up. Although his injuries had healed, his body was still weak. His face remained pale as he said, "That zombie is almost level 7. The Captain’s situation is not promising."
Hearing this, the others turned to him, and Xiao Qi asked, "Vice Captain, what should we do?"
Feng Yun glanced at Du Beiye and Jiao Lizhi. He hesitated for a long time before saying, "Sister-in-law, can you take that zombie into your space?"
As soon as he said this, Xiao Qi frowned. "Feng Yun, no matter how strong our Sister-in-law is, our spaces can only store zombie corpses."
No one knew why they could not store a living zombie in their spaces. Xiao Qi, Pei Yixie, and Feng Yun had tried several times but never succeeded.
Feng Yun looked at him and said, "Sister-in-law might be able to do it."
Jiao Lizhi thought for a moment and asked, "Gaia, can I bring that zombie into my space?"
Soon after, Gaia’s voice replied, "Host, that is not a zombie but an A-rank mutant. There are 2 crystal cores planted in his body, and his DNA has been altered at least 3 times. It is not advisable for the Host to keep it in space, as it is highly dangerous."
As she considered her options, Jiang Ziyi’s voice suddenly echoed in her mind.
"Just bring him in. I have a way to keep him under control."
Jiao Lizhi was stunned. She wanted to ask how he could speak to her while being kept in her space, but the situation was urgent, and her fiancée was at a disadvantage.
"If you continue to hesitate, that boy will lose half of his life, if not die."
Hearing this, she stopped hesitating and rushed toward the zombie. This time, she only planned to bring it into her space, so she activated invincibility.
As she approached, Jiao Lizhi raised her hand and said, "Collect!"
Seeing that the zombie was still attacking her fiancée, she asked, "Why can’t I take it in?"
"It’s an A-rank mutant. His mental strength is stronger than yours. You have to touch it."
Hearing this, Jiao Lizhi gritted her teeth and dashed forward. Even with the invisibility function activated, the zombie sensed her presence.
When she appeared behind it, the zombie turned suddenly and swung its claws at her head. She leaned back to dodge and grabbed its wrist. The next moment, she entered her space, bringing the zombie with her.
As they vanished, Jin Xuyan noticed and raised his head.
"Cough! Cough!"
He coughed up several mouthfuls of blood as he covered his abdomen. A deep, long wound was carved across it by the zombie’s claws.
Qin Luzi’s eyes flickered the moment he saw the deep purple and blue dots disappear. "Yusheng, go check on the Captain."
Yin Yusheng rushed over and began healing Jin Xuyan’s wound. At the same time, the members searched the area but could not find any trace of the zombie or Jiao Lizhi.
Feng Yun lowered his gaze, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Meanwhile, inside the space, the zombie was pressed to the ground by Jiang Ziyi. With his control over the space, the pressure made it difficult for the zombie to even move its fingers.
Squatting beside it, Jiang Ziyi grabbed its chin and lifted its head. Narrowing his eyes, he said, "Feng Yuxuan, they finally let you out."
The zombie narrowed its eyes and stared at him coldly. It didn’t even utter any growl as the zombies usually do.
"Do you know him?" Jiao Lizhi asked.
Jiang Ziyi stood and replied, "He is one of the best mutants created by the organization, also known as the Zombie King. His DNA has been altered several times."
"He not only obtained self-regeneration from Subject Zero, but also awakened 2 abilities at once due to the crystal cores in his head. Before he became like this, he was a madman."
Jiao Lizhi was stunned when she heard his words. "Is that why he willingly underwent the experiment?"
Jiang Ziyi smiled. "You don’t need to worry about him. I will make sure he cannot do anything to you or cause any damage here. You should go out and check on that boy."
Jiao Lizhi glanced at him before leaving the space.
After she left, Jiang Ziyi looked at Feng Yuxuan and said, "Gaia, give him an RV-078 serum."
"Injecting RV-078 serum into the subject."
The next moment, a syringe appeared and pierced Feng Yuxuan’s vein in his neck. As the liquid entered his body, the zombie finally let out a low, painful groan.
After a moment, Gaia’s voice echoed through the space.
"Injection complete."
Jiang Ziyi nodded. "Take him to the operating room. We still have a lot of work to do."
"Transferring the subject into the operating room."
As soon as the words fell, the two of them disappeared.
