Volume 1 Three Months After the End of the World Chapter 37 New Mutated Zombies
“Bang!”
The glass used to block the hole was directly shattered, and Shen Jin and Yang Ao subconsciously dodged to the sides.
A skinny hand covered with various pustules stretched out at an incredibly fast speed!
Not only did he not catch anyone, he also scratched both sides.
A fishy smell mixed with a strong smell of chemical reagents rushed out.
Shen Jin and Yang Ao rolled sideways to avoid being caught.
"What the hell!"
It was the first time that Shen Jin saw such a sharp-eyed zombie that could actually spot two people through the glass!
No smell, no sound, how could it be!
Could it be that the sudden change and the knocking sound made it discover it?
“Woo~!”
The zombies inside didn't catch anyone, and they were growling in low voices, like tigers hunting animals.
As it pulled its hand back, Shen Jin quickly blocked the gap with stones.
“Snap! Snap!”
The zombies inside have already discovered that there is something extra below, and they keep slapping it, making loud noises.
Yang Ao took the opportunity to stand with Shen Jin, "Brother Jin, look at this sense, strength, and speed are stronger than the mutant zombies we encountered before!"
Shen Jin's face was serious. "If I'm not mistaken... a new boss has appeared in your laboratory!"
"Eh? Brother Jin, are you still in the mood to joke?"
Shen Jin didn't care. "Since it has already appeared, it won't leave on its own even if it looks sad. It's better to adjust my mindset and think of more solutions... Shit!"
“Bang!”
The stone that was stuffed there was actually completely shattered and fell into a pile of stones in the tunnel.
This time, two withered, pus-filled hands reached down.
The smell came like a mixture of a hospital morgue and a garbage dump, foul and with a strong smell of chemical reagents.
"Chop off its hand!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Ao swung his iron sword!
puff!
The abscess on his hand was cut open, splashing out turbid yellow liquid, but he could not move forward any further.
"The bones in this hand are too hard to cut!"
Yang Ao had experience in dealing with power- type zombies. When he missed the first strike, he quickly put away his knife, otherwise he would be thrown away again and it would be bad.
The zombie may have sensed that it was being attacked, and stretched its arms down further, and the two men took another step back.
"Take this!"
Shen Jin took out the two [Iron Swords (Energy Enhanced)] that had been entangled with him from his back.
In order to conceal his space package, he always hides something behind his back.
Yang Ao caught it, and in the light of the torches on the wall, he could vaguely see that there was something different on the iron sword.
"Cut them together and cut off the zombie's two arms!"
Shen Jin took a deep breath, the two of them exchanged glances, and swung their swords together.
A faint blood-colored energy flashed on the iron sword, and the two men used all their strength to cut off both arms of the zombie with one sword!
“Ah~! Roar!!!”
The zombies inside let out roars, obviously having been badly injured.
A stream of dark brown liquid spurted out from the fracture and got onto the armor of the two men.
"Hiss~!" Steam coming out.
Shen Jin saw in the equipment column that the durability of the corroded armor and pants was decreasing rapidly.
"Oh no, this zombie's blood is poisonous!"
Yang Ao was so scared that he wanted to take off his armor, but was stopped by Shen Jin.
"No, it won't corrode our armor!"
The system showed that the durability dropped by half and then stopped.
Sure enough, the blood on the two men's bodies corroded into white spots and then there was no movement.
The two broken arms had corroded the soil and rocks on the ground, leaving small potholes.
Shen Jin took out another stone to block it.
"A zombie without hands can still jump down?"
Shen Jin was glad that the zombies were lying on the ground smashing stones instead of crawling out directly, otherwise it would be very troublesome to clean up the narrow tunnel.
If something unexpected happens... Yang Ao might have a hard time surviving.
“Bang! Bang!”
The zombie still refused to give up. The human smell below had activated its deep desire to eat.
"Brother Jin, it really jumped down!"
"Hey! That's going to be interesting!"
Shen Jin was not anxious but happy. He stuffed two more stones under the hole, took out two shovels, and started digging!
"Protect yourself and don't get scratched!"
It's rare to have such an obedient follower, and Shen Jin doesn't want him to turn into a zombie so soon.
After all... we still need people to test the medicine.
Soon, Shen Jin dug a 2×2m pit at the bottom of the cave, which was 6 meters deep!
One of the stones on top has been broken, and the one below won't last much longer.
Shen Jin took two steps to the side and dug up.
“Bang!”
The rocks shattered, and the zombies fell headfirst into a 6-meter-deep pit.
It was like Yasuo in the mid lane with TP, giving away kills at the beginning.
"Seal it for me!"
Shen Jin didn't wait for the zombies inside to jump, and directly blocked the entrance below with 12 stones.
The 3-meter-thick stones are spliced tightly together with the help of the system, like a whole!
It’s not something that zombies can shake at will!
Even if it's a power-type zombie, it's impossible!
Besides, this zombie had both his hands chopped off, so he could only use his head to butt.
It’s hard to say which one will break first!
Shen Jin and Yang Ao quickly sank to the ground and came directly to the height of the zombie's feet. Separated by a layer of stone and soil mixture, the zombie was roaring madly and did not realize that its prey was right next door.
"I'll use my powers to open this place, and we'll both chop off the feet together!"
Yang Ao didn't say much, just nodded vigorously, and strange energy flowed in the iron sword in his hand.
"Open! Cut!"
The moment Shen Jin opened up the terrain, the two men aimed at the zombie's ankles and attacked with all their might.
“Puff!”
The zombies' feet fell down at the same time. The two men put away their swords and a stone blocked their way in time.
The zombies inside had their limbs cut off before they could even see the enemy's appearance!
Shen Jin did not relax. He calculated the height in his mind, raised his feet, and made another hole. "Stab!"
“Puff!”
Two long swords with flowing red light pierced into the brains of the zombies who had lost their ability to move.
"stir!"
The sword spun, the pus-filled pustules on the zombies' heads were punctured, their heads shattered into pieces, and the walls were corroded by the flying yellow and white substances, making a "sizzling" sound.
"vomit!"
The enclosed space underground was so small that a smell 10 times more foul than that of a public toilet burst forth.
Yang Ao spit it out directly.
Shen Jin endured the stench and wanted to take out the blood crystal from the zombie's head, but was grabbed by Yang Ao.
"I'll do it!"
Shen Jin looked at Yang Ao in surprise, who had vomited twice but then held it back, and nodded.
This is a blood crystal that is larger than the one in the Iron Bucket Zombie’s head. It is as big as an adult’s little finger.
Shen Jin put the package on his back, but actually put it into the system's space backpack.
Standing in the underground passage, the two rested for 10 minutes before they recovered.
"I wonder if there are still zombies like this up there..."
Shen Jin and his companion pierced the hole with flashlights and probed again. When they found no enemy, they climbed up.
With flashlights in their mouths, the two men scanned the entire laboratory back to back.
"Strange, there's blood all over the floor. Obviously there were many people here before... Why is there only one zombie left? Were all the others eaten?"
"I don't think it's possible. When a zombie eats a human, the other infected people should also become zombies... Even if several were eaten, there wouldn't be only one left!"
The two of them moved gently and communicated in low voices.
"Besides...how did the zombies survive for three months underground without any energy? And how did they evolve to be so powerful?"
"strangeness……"
The two men began to walk around in the laboratory. The first floor had been severely damaged and there were broken glass under their feet. Fortunately, Zulijian had iron boots on the outside, so they had no problem stepping on it.
It's just that the sound is very harsh.
"If there are still zombies, they will definitely come out with such a loud noise!"
Yang Ao agreed.
Suddenly, there was a sound of knocking on glass from upstairs, and vague noises could be heard coming from upstairs.
"There are still zombies upstairs!" they said in unison.
Go to the second floor through the safe passage.
Apart from some damaged tables, chairs and decorations, the only place on the second floor where zombies could hide was a space enclosed by a password door, made of the same alloy material as the exterior.
Yang Ao knew the password, but apparently the power outage lasted too long and the backup power of this secret laboratory was exhausted.
Shen Jin leaned closer and this time he could finally hear the voice inside clearly...
“Save me!”
