Chapter 864: Taking The Bait ( 1 )
The boss narrowed his eyes when he heard his subordinate’s words and asked, "Have you all forgotten about that building? We can’t take the risk."
Recalling the building filled with zombies, everyone’s faces paled.
They still remembered clearly how that group of people wearing strange suits used a high-level zombie to control more than 20,000 zombies and locked them in the biggest building in this area.
At that moment, they thought that they had trapped the zombies to save everyone. But when they saw what they did afterward, they no longer dared to reveal their existence, fearing that they would become the next ones being captured.
Knowing that his members understood his warning, the middle-aged man said, "When they clear those zombies and that group, it won’t be too late for us to leave. Our supplies are still enough for 10 days."
The members considered for a moment and nodded. "Boss, we will follow your decision."
"Good."
Besides them, several groups of people who were hiding were also discussing the Phantom Team. Everyone was eager to go to the Red Cliff Base, but they agreed to wait and see. They would leave only when they were sure that it was safe.
Meanwhile, Qin Luzi had already informed his team about those people. When they reached the building where the zombies were trapped inside, Jin Xuyan asked, "Junjie, can you use your ability and kill them from outside?"
Mo Junjie thought for a moment and nodded. "I don’t know if my energy will be enough, but I will try."
Hearing this, the members exchanged puzzled gazes. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t be this easy to ask this man to work. He would give them lots of nonsense excuses just to avoid work. It was rare to see him so cooperative.
Jin Xuyan also noticed his subtle changes, but he didn’t think too much about it. People change every day; it’s normal.
Jiao Lizhi gave him a handful of Sthanam crystals and said, "I still have more, so don’t worry about running out of energy."
Looking at her smile, Mo Junjie chuckled and said, "Okay."
To ensure that nothing went wrong, Feng Yun created a spatial barrier, surrounding an area with a 10-meter radius around the building.
Standing at the main entrance, Mo Junjie sat down and closed his eyes. He was on the brink of breaking through. Perhaps this was his opportunity.
After he calmed his mind, he circulated his energy, and soon, a thick black mist seeped out from his body and went into the building through the gaps in the doors and windows.
Since the black mist was odorless and soundless, it didn’t attract the zombies’ attention. To save energy, Mo Junjie only attacked the zombies’ brains.
The black mist entered the zombies’ bodies through their nostrils, mouths, and ears. As soon as the black mist touched the rotten brain, it melted rapidly.
The members watched as the zombies fell to the ground one after another. As they piled up on the ground, a suspicious liquid flowed out from their five orifices.
Although there was no blood or minced meat, they felt that the scene was scarier than a horror movie. When they looked at Mo Junjie’s gentlemanly, handsome face, they couldn’t help but feel a chill running down their spines.
If their Captain was a pervert, then this person was a madman. They shouldn’t provoke him!
Half an hour later, his body was drenched with sweat. The number of zombies inside the building had been reduced by one-third.
Qin Luzi checked his map and must admit that Mo Junjie’s ability was terrifying. His ability was the best assassin type.
While waiting for him, the members had already built a campfire and cleaned up the mutant wolf. They only took the mutant meat, and the rest was stored in Jiao Lizhi’s space. They would sell it to the base as materials when they returned.
Since the size of the mutant wolf was massive, the mutant meat weighed more than 600 kilograms. The members sliced them into smaller sizes. Each piece weighed around 2 kilograms with a thickness of 2 to 3 centimeters.
Half of the meat was roasted, and the other half was grilled. Jiao Lizhi even prepared special sauce and seasonings.
Thanks to Feng Yun’s spatial barrier, the fragrance of the roasted and grilled meat was blocked. Otherwise, they would attract unwanted attention.
When the meat was almost ready, Mo Junjie finally killed the last zombie. To save the trouble of cleaning up the zombies’ corpses, he absorbed more energy from the black crystals and melted all the zombies into puddles of black water.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a sharp pain piercing his brain. Knowing that he was finally breaking through, he gritted his teeth and circulated his energy faster.
Sitting not far from him, Du Beiye noticed his condition. She walked over and saw that the Sthanam crystals on his palm had turned into dust. She quickly took out more from her inventory and shoved them into his hand.
Finally getting a new source of energy, Mo Junjie’s brow relaxed a little. Compared to others, his process of breaking through was faster, but it was several-fold more painful and dangerous.
Du Beiye didn’t dare to disturb him and stood 5 meters away.
Ten minutes later, a thick black mist erupted from Mo Junjie’s body and enveloped him like a ball.
Boom!
The members were startled by the sudden sound and rushed over to check what had happened. When they saw the poison mist circling around him, no one dared to get closer.
The poison mist spun at a fast speed for 5 minutes before it was absorbed into Mo Junjie’s body. The moment the poison mist disappeared, Jin Xuyan, Zhang Yuan, Fu Guai, and Lin Fei reacted at the same time.
They covered Jiao Lizhi, Su Ruanyi, Pei Yixie, and Jian Huan’s eyes, blocking their sight.
Feeling curious, Jiao Lizhi pulled at her fiancé’s hand while asking, "Brother Yan, what’s wrong?"
Jin Xuyan held her hand and said, "Don’t look."
