Chapter 69: Big black pillars resembling organs
"Roar--"
“Ah——”
“Gu——”
Lifeng's roar received . Several roars came from the east of the Steel City ruins. They sounded violent and manic. It was obvious that some advanced evolved zombies felt that their dignity was challenged.
Li Feng snorted coldly, and the eyes between his eyebrows opened instantly, releasing powerful thought waves, and strode towards the center of the steel city ruins.
That is where the homologous energy body he sensed was!
He could feel that this piece of homologous energy was different from the previous ones. Although there was only one piece, the energy fluctuations it emitted were more than the usual three or four pieces.
Obviously, this is definitely a big fish!
I wonder which piece of armor it is? The breastplate? The helmet? The leg armor? Or the arm armor?
Richemont thought as he walked along the dilapidated and dark streets.
After integrating Situ Ya's colonization core , he gained some new armor manipulation methods. The means of attack were sufficient, but what he needed most was defense, especially head defense. His favorite move was to blow up the enemy's head, so he knew the importance of the head and didn't want his head to be blown up one day.
Thinking of Situ Ya, Li Feng couldn't help but feel a little funny again. This Situ Ya was really too arrogant, otherwise if he had used the emergency combat mode at the beginning, not to mention being able to defeat Li Feng, at least he would have no problem escaping safely.
On the street, groups of zombies were swaying while making low roars, including some mutant zombies. However, when these zombies met Li Feng, they all quickly avoided to the side like mice seeing a cat. The reason was that after Li Feng sucked the brain of the one-eyed zombie, he already had the aura of a superior zombie. At the same time, the brain waves emitted by the third eye on his forehead were full of majesty.
This is also the reason why Li Feng dared to go deep into the corpse nest alone, and the reason why he could only come to the depths of the steel city alone.
Otherwise, although the blood cloak can deceive ordinary zombies, it will be useless against those slightly smarter mutant zombies. His own mutant subordinates will probably be torn to pieces in a short time.
Lifeng was quite familiar with Steel City, after all, he went to college here. However, when he returned to Steel City this time, he was shocked to find that he almost didn't recognize this place at all. The ruins of buildings everywhere were secondary, but the pieces of black leather-like material on the ground and those thick black chimneys really shocked him!
It turns out that the black clouds in the sky are created by these black chimneys!
The closer you get to the center of the corpse nest, the thicker these black chimneys become.
He also discovered that there seemed to be some kind of strange electromagnetic field around these black chimneys. When he approached a black chimney within dozens of meters, he seemed to feel some kind of call, wanting him to protect this thing even at the cost of his own life!
Although Li Feng's mental power is extremely strong and he has a third eye that can also emit electromagnetic waves, this feeling still makes him extremely frightened.
You know, the reason why he himself was not bewitched was because his mental power was dozens of times stronger than that of ordinary people. If there really was an ordinary human being here, he would probably be completely hypnotized very soon!
Then, Richemont discovered that the zombies that kept wandering around were not wandering around aimlessly, but formed many groups, circling around the black chimneys, like dutiful guards!
Obviously, these zombies have been completely mind-controlled!
These huge black chimneys seem to have their own thoughts...
The main reason why humans can now rely on the power of technology to survive and even hope to counterattack is that zombies and mutants have no wisdom of their own and act entirely on instinct. Li Feng dare not imagine, if these monsters have their own wisdom, then can humans still defeat them?
Even... could it be that from the beginning until now, everything the zombies and mutant beasts have done is conscious?
Thinking of this, even though he was not in any danger, Li Feng still shuddered. He shook his head and stopped thinking about these useless things. He thought with self-mockery that he was just a poor student who had never thought about and had no ability to save the world. He should first get stronger power and survive.
Because of the grudge, Richemont avoided all the black chimneys it encountered along the way and tried not to get too close to them.
Just as he walked to the Steel City Government Building where he had been before, something strange happened!
"Gu——" A roar came, and Li Feng looked up and immediately found that a smaller mutant zombie was roaring at him on the top of the government building. Obviously, this mutant zombie had discovered Li Feng's true identity!
This mutated zombie looked very strange. Only the head had mutated. There was a big single eye on his forehead, and his mouth had become pointed and long. When the upper and lower jaws were put together, it formed a bone tube as thick as an arm.
Could this be a one-eyed monster that has mutated again?
Li Feng was wondering why the zombie had discovered him from such a long distance, when he heard a hissing sound. Suddenly, dozens shot towards Li Feng like a machine gun!
Because the opponent's attack method was so weird, Richemont did not take it head-on, but instantly activated the energy shield.
With just a few "pop" sounds, the energy shield that even a submachine gun could not penetrate was pierced by several sharp teeth!
Li Feng groaned as several sharp teeth had pierced his arm.
The moment they came into contact with the blood, the teeth suddenly began to melt, and then corroded the surrounding flesh like sulfuric acid, forming a wound and emitting a faint fragrance.
Li Feng frowned, and immediately found that his originally extremely powerful healing ability seemed to be suppressed at this time, and the wound was no longer healing! Or, because the healing speed was too slow, it was not clear at all.
He raised his head and looked at the mutated one-eyed creature on the roof again, but was surprised to find that there was nothing there. The one-eyed creature had disappeared at some point in time.
What on earth was this one-eyed beast trying to do? Did he find that he couldn't defeat him, so he just left? Richemont was puzzled and had to keep going.
The journey went much smoother. Although many mutant zombies were interested in Li Feng, it was not known whether it was because of the one-eyed aura or the third eye on his forehead. Except for the mutant one-eyed zombie, none of the zombies discovered his true identity. There were even quite a few ordinary one-eyed zombies.
As he went deeper, he, a fake zombie mixed in with the zombies, also discovered the hierarchy of the zombies. Ordinary zombies without mutations are of course the lowest existence, just like worker ants in an ant nest, who not only wander around aimlessly, but sometimes even become food for higher-level existences. Those zombies after mutation, such as drummers, skinners, etc., are like soldier ants, with simple anger emotions. And those one-eyed ones are small leaders who can drive away zombies of lower levels than them.
As for zombies of higher levels and stronger combat capabilities, Richemont has not discovered them yet.
For Lifeng, this trip to the zombie lair was more like a trip. Along the way, whenever he came across a large supermarket, he would go in and search. After all, his storage space was much larger now, and it would be better to store more supplies in case of emergency.
After half a day, Lifeng had arrived at the center of the steel city ruins. At this time, his storage space was almost full, and his originally relaxed mentality finally began to become serious.
The aura of the strongly fluctuating homologous energy body was not far away.
What shocked him was that the breath of the homologous energy body actually came from the thickest chimney in the center of the ruins!
At this time, Richemont had discovered that these black chimneys were actually skyscrapers. Apparently, the huge piece of armor fragment fell into the building and was then wrapped up by the black chimneys.
The black chimney in the center of the city is also the largest one. It used to be the most luxurious office building in Steel City, called Fulong Building. There were various companies and even Steel City TV station in it. Because of its novel architectural style, it once became a landmark building in Steel City. However, now it has become an ugly black pillar.
The surface of this black chimney is a leather-like substance covered with ugly, twisted veins like blood vessels, extending from the black substance on the ground to the top.
The twisted blood vessels and upright columnar objects reminded Lifeng of the male reproductive organs. However, these black columns spewed out dark gas...
In the square outside the black chimney, there are tens of thousands of zombies wandering around it. Richemont can feel that the thought waves emitted by this huge black chimney are also stronger, which can be said to be the strongest in the entire steel city ruins. This wave gives people a sense of tranquility and peace, as if it is a high monk who is preaching to believers, and those who hear the Zen principles all want to protect this "high monk".
Lifeng bit the tip of his tongue lightly to keep himself awake and walked forward slowly.
From the beginning to the end, he had not discovered how dangerous this black chimney was, so he could not give up the treasure right in front of him just because of a little premonition of danger.
Richemont had been to the Plaza Fulong dozens of times, but revisiting the place now felt indescribably strange.
After a while, he had passed through the crowd of zombies and came to a place about ten meters away from the black chimney.
Here, the black chimney looked even clearer. The outer wall of the thing looked like rough bark, all black flocs, and there were veins like blood vessels. These veins were beating slowly, as if blood was flowing through them!
Lifeng was surprised when he suddenly heard a familiar roar coming from behind him.
He immediately turned around and looked, and what he saw was terrible, he saw dozens of one-eyed zombies and thousands of mutant zombies rushing towards him frantically from all directions and from every street corner in the city!
Behind these zombies was the mutant one-eyed creature that shot Li Feng. This one-eyed creature was standing on the top of a building not far away, looking at Li Feng with the one eye on its forehead. This one-eyed creature was full of mockery and was emitting strong electromagnetic waves.
Bastard! Li Feng cursed. Obviously, this mutant one-eyed creature had extremely high intelligence. After finding that he could not defeat Li Feng, he went to find a bunch of helpers and suddenly attacked Li Feng when he had no way to retreat! He was actually fooled by a zombie!
What to do? ? Li Feng's mind was racing. No matter how powerful he was, he couldn't defeat these thousands of mutant zombies. He would be crushed into a pulp just by stepping on them!
Just then, he looked up and saw the black chimney nearby, and an idea flashed through his mind.
Damn it, let’s fight! Li Feng roared, and the bronze wrist guard on his right wrist flashed, and a huge energy sword as big as a door panel appeared instantly.
He raised his sword and stabbed it hard on the outer wall of the black chimney, using all his strength to break a big hole, and then he slipped in!
