In less than ten seconds, Zhang Xiaoqiang was forced back by the blood crystal spears. His only gain was the 1.8 meter long blood crystal spear in his hand. Zhang Xiaoqiang had no idea how the blood phoenix did it, but each of the blood crystal spears was extremely sharp and tough. If it weren't for Zhang Xiaoqiang's firebird scimitar, he wouldn't have been able to break a large caliber shell. Each spear weighed less than five kilograms, so even Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't want to throw it away, so he took one with him.
In the midst of the dust, there was a group of tentacles dancing in the air. Zhang Xiaoqiang was constantly forced back. He wanted to rush past the tentacles and fight the blood phoenix directly, so that he could find an opportunity to throw the Source of Erosion onto him. However, the obstacles in front of him made him feel conflicted. He didn't care about the blood crystal spears or blood tentacles. His dynamic vision could help him avoid danger in advance, but the white dust was blocking his vision. If he was not careful, he would be strangled by the tentacles.
He was hesitating if he should push the spear out and go upstairs, when the floor beneath his feet suddenly shook. Following that, there was a loud sound from the room outside, and the floor started to crumble. Zhang Xiao Qiang leaped up the moment the floor beneath his feet collapsed, and he used the momentum to pin the spear to the wall, hanging himself on it. The dust and sand filled the air around him, occupying the entire space. He didn't even dare to open his eyes, afraid that the dust would rush out.
Just as he was waiting for the dust to settle, an even bigger tremor came, following that, he felt an intense sense of danger. The warning signal in his heart started to throb. He knew that if he stayed where he was, he would definitely die. Without hesitation, he curled his abdomen and kicked the wall beside him. His whole body, along with the Blood Crystal Spear in his hand, flew out diagonally. The moment he flew out, everything around him was covered by the white dust. He couldn't even open his eyes. Countless broken stones flew everywhere in the room, hitting his face from time to time. The only thing he could do was to extend his sense of touch to the Rat King Blade. The broken bricks that got close to him were smashed into pieces, but before he could even throw them to the ground, there was a loud bang, and the wall that he was hiding in collapsed. Even more broken bricks flew out in all directions as the wall collapsed.
Zhang Xiaoqiang closed his eyes, and the broken bricks that were close to him were all broken, but his whole body was still falling down. According to his estimation, he should have landed a long time ago, but he didn't expect it to take so long. His falling speed was not slow, and this made him feel uncertain. Even if he fell to the next floor, it would have been enough, but now it seemed like he was falling into the void. Just as he was feeling surprised, the King Rat Blade behind him suddenly slashed something, and a hoarse roar entered his ears. Hearing this roar, Zhang Xiaoqiang opened his eyes, he could tell that it was the roar of the S-Type zombie.
In the next moment, Zhang Xiaoqiang crashed into a thin body, and fiercely pressed that thing under his body. Two sharp claws from his back grabbed onto his chest, and scratched at the scales on his chest. In the midst of the 'shua shua' sounds, the scales on his chest started to scatter, and the scales that even bullets couldn't do anything to fell off one by one. Zhang Xiaoqiang's machete was faster than his thoughts, and he slashed at his own chest, cutting the claws in half, and at the same time, cutting off a lot of the scales on his chest …
Zhang Xiaoqiang did not fall to the third floor, but to the hall on the first floor. Countless broken concrete slabs were piled up on the ground, and large pieces of broken bricks and stones were piled up into a hill fort. A nimble S3 zombie shuttled through these complicated slabs, dodging the falling rubble, furniture, and electrical appliances. Countless blood tentacles were stirring up the layers of cracks, and every tentacle had a two to three meter long blood colored spear, destroying all the supporting walls of the building. The surroundings were filled with the thick smell of blood, and the zombies were crawling around him, but they didn't notice that his whole body was covered in black blood.
The whole hall was in chaos, and the pile of debris on the ground had reduced the height of the hall by two-thirds. Countless zombies were climbing and jumping, and every second, there would be zombies falling from above. Sometimes, there would be zombies that had nowhere to hide, and were smashed into meat paste by the collapsing walls. Zhang Xiaoqiang hid in a corner, and looked at the hellish scene through the dust. He was surprised at how these zombies appeared. In the chaotic hall, the zombies were scurrying back and forth, as if they were looking for something. More zombies fell from above, and there were zombies that grabbed onto the cracks on the walls. They were like monkeys trying to avoid the tentacles that were trying to kill them. At least, Zhang Xiaoqiang saw more than one zombie being pierced by the blood spear, and smashed into meat paste on the wall.
To be honest, Zhang Xiaoqiang was shocked, not because of the zombies, but because he was in the center of the city. Since the Mutant Beasts were blocked, this should be the safest place to be, but he did not expect to see so many Type 3 zombies, and all of them were Type S zombies. This did not make sense, as this was a city controlled by evolvers, and it was abandoned by the zombies. How could there be so many zombies?
Hundreds of S3 zombies were scurrying around Zhang Xiaoqiang, and the falling bricks and stones did not seem to be decreasing. More floors were collapsing, and the entire building was shaking. Large pieces of glass were falling, and the tentacles looked like they were about to tear the building apart. Zhang Xiaoqiang did not know how to escape, but his mind was racing. What would the sudden appearance of these zombies do to the 200,000 survivors?
He did not believe that his troops could fend off so many Type 3 zombies. Even if the Special Combat Forces were unscathed, and the entire Hubei Army was there, it would not be enough.
"Xue Feng … It's him …"
The Blood Phoenix's desire to kill him was extremely strong, but it was impossible for her to cooperate with the zombies. The zombies would only treat humans as food, and even if the Blood Phoenix could control evolvers, it would not be able to control the zombies. There was only one thing that could control so many evolved zombies, the Z-Type. Thinking about this, the fog cleared. The survivors were evolving uncontrollably, the pressure that even the top evolvers could not do anything about, and the eight thousand people's heads exploding at the same time, the sea of blood. All of this indicated a shocking conspiracy. These evolvers were like lambs being reared in a pen. They only had one use, and that was to be used as food to increase the evolution level of the zombies.
Mutant Beasts loved to eat high level zombies, the higher the level, the more they liked them. This was because high level zombies could help the Mutant Beasts evolve. At the same time, zombies also loved to eat Evolvers, the stronger they were. They needed to evolve as well. It wasn't difficult for normal zombies to evolve into Evolved Zombies, as long as they didn't die within a few years. It wasn't difficult for Evolved Zombies to evolve into Type 2 Zombies, as long as they had enough food. However, it wasn't easy for Type 2 Zombies to evolve into Type 3 or even Type 4 Zombies, unless they had higher levels of food and resources. Everything that had happened in Shanghai pointed towards the tens of millions of zombies. Zhang Xiao Qiang had already outlined Xue Feng's plan.
The zombies in Shanghai had not left, and the Z-Type that was hiding behind the scenes had intelligence. It had arranged a shocking scam to gather all the survivors in the city. The zombies had blocked all the exits except for the waterways so that the survivors could live in the city peacefully. They had also used a special method to make the survivors continuously produce Evolvers. In order to prevent the survivors from forming a group, he had secretly planned for the Evolvers to become enemies with each other. This way, they would not be able to escape his control. In order to prevent the Evolvers from dying, he had manipulated and guided them from behind the scenes, forming a special class system in Shanghai. This was what Zhang Xiaoqiang had learned about the rules of the city. All the rules were to protect the food that could raise the level of the zombies.
This was a long-term plan. According to this plan, the number of evolvers would increase at a slow pace. This way, it would not attract the attention of others. Until the day when all the survivors became evolvers, it would be time for the zombies to harvest. All the high-level zombies would swarm into the city and eat all the evolvers alive. If that was the case, the high-level zombies in the sea of zombies would probably be able to level up by one or two levels …
