Jianye District of Nanjing City was the central urban area of ancient Nanjing City. It could be seen from the many tall high-rise buildings that this area was a prosperous place in the past. Unfortunately, after a thousand years, this area had become a city mixed with forests and reinforced concrete.
Most of the roads had disappeared and were replaced by patches of soil. Tenacious trees rose from the soil and shrouded the entire city under the shade of the trees.
Guhan looked up at the Internet and could even see the wreckage of many cars fused with the trunks of the trees. Parts of these cars were like dumplings that grew with the tree trunks. It was as if the cars were part of the trees.
"In order to survive and grow, these plants are willing to work so hard. They're willing to fuse their bodies with steel to grow stronger. This is the spirit. It's really touching. Aren't we humans the same as these trees?" Guhan could not help but lament when he saw the scene.
[PS: This description isn't an exaggeration. If an iron fellow leans against the tree trunk for a long time without moving, it will be absorbed into its body by the ever-thickening tree.
There's a story in real life. During World War II, the owner of a bicycle locked his bicycle beside a tree and went to war. He never returned.
More than sixty years later, people accidentally found the bicycle and found that it had become one with the trunk of the tree.
You can go to Baidu for this news. There are pictures and everything. It's the real deal.]
"Mr. Guhan, if you have the time to feed yourself chicken soup, why don't you take a look at the front? I think we're surrounded!"
Misaka Mikoto patted Guhan's shoulder. Guhan looked up and saw a group of people walking toward him in a trance not far away. There seemed to be a lot of them, at least a hundred of them.
Of course, Guhan did not think that these people were humans. There were no living human survivors in the ruins of Nanjing City. There was only one possibility for these people and that was Yuan Kou who ruled the entire old Nanjing City: zombies.
As expected, when these figures gradually approached, Guhan could clearly see their appearances.
They were wearing all kinds of torn clothes, and the surface of their bodies was completely rotten. Stinking black liquid kept flowing out of their bodies. Some parts of their bodies were missing, revealing the white bones inside. However, the loss of flesh and skin did not seem to affect their movements. They still walked firmly towards Guhan's position.
[Yuan Kou Name: Normal Zombie.
[Level: Mouse]
Two-Dimensional World: Movie World
HP: Two stars
Attack: One Star
Agility: Half a star
Magic: None.
Ability: It doesn't have any special abilities. If it weren't for the fact that it doesn't feel pain, it would be able to attack its enemies even if it only had a head left. However, its combat power is even lower than that of an ordinary person.
His main method of attack was to use his fingernails and the teeth in his mouth to attack his enemies.
It was worth noting that their teeth carried a deadly virus.
Ultimate Skill: Gnaw.
Introduction: A type of Yuan Kou from the movie world. It is commonly believed to have originated from movies such as Resident Evil, The Walking Dead, and Zombies World War. It has no intelligence and is the lowest level of Yuan Kou. Any Swordmistress can take on ten opponents at once. As long as you don't get bitten, you don't have to worry about anything.
Battle Record: It has appeared many times in the real world. The specific battle record cannot be calculated, but it is estimated that it has fought more than 100,000 battles in a thousand years.
Battle Result: The number of sword bearers who died at the hands of normal zombies was extremely low. One year ago, there were less than 500 of them. Most of them were young ancient sword bearers.
Among these 500 people, most of them did not fight against a single normal zombie, Yuan Kou. Instead, they died under the combined attacks of normal zombies and other high-level zombies.
Battle Suggestion: For novice ancient sword bearers, if there are less than ten normal zombies, please leave them to your Swordmistress.
If there are more than ten normal zombies without teammates, consider escaping.
Please judge according to your own information … This really isn't a dangerous Yuan Kou. If you can't beat it, you can run.]
This was the advice Guhan received from his personal terminal after scanning. Guhan had already memorized this information. He only scanned it to make sure he didn't miss anything.
However, there was one thing that the information didn't mention. The danger that normal zombies posed to sword bearers was not as simple as the information made it out to be. If one was really bitten, it would be very troublesome.
The teeth of these zombies contained a fatal virus that humans had yet to find an effective antidote for. Within one to seventy-two hours of being poisoned, a normal person would turn into a new zombie.
However, this was only the effect of a normal person's bite. If it was a sword bearer, the effect would be greatly reduced. Most ancient sword bearers could survive for ten days to half a month without being infected. As long as they took some time to drink a normal antidote, they would be able to survive for another month … After a month, the sword bearer's immune system would be able to completely eliminate the virus.
Therefore, the sword committee didn't pay much attention to this poison. They didn't even bother to write about it in the information.
In fact, Guhan didn't care about the poison. He pulled out Qingpin's sword and released it. Then he patted Qingpin's head and said, "Come, I'll leave these Yuan Kou to you, Qingpin!"
"You're ordering Qingpin around like a coolie again, you stinky Guhan!" Qingpin muttered. Then he looked at his opponent.
"Wow, Guhan, they're so disgusting!"
The poor were immediately disgusted by the appearance of these Yuan Yu. This was very normal. Any young lady who saw such a Yuan Yu would feel disgusted from the bottom of her heart.
"You call this disgusting?
If I let you see that Brother Tuan Yuan Zhen who is as expensive as a grass mud horse, won't you be scared to death? "
Misaka Mikoto pouted. She couldn't help but blush when she thought about how she looked when she saw the noble Yuan Kou. It was too embarrassing. It was too embarrassing. That was not how a free Universe Level should behave!
On the other hand, under Guhan's strict orders, Qingpin reluctantly picked up her small sword and started to kill the group of hundreds of normal Yuan Kou.
If it was Qingpin who had just finished synchronizing, she wouldn't be able to fight two or three normal zombies, let alone a hundred normal zombies. Qingpin would have a hard time fighting them.
It wasn't that Qingpin didn't have enough strength. It was purely because her swordsmanship was a mess at that time. She would be lucky if she didn't injure herself during the sword dance. She couldn't expect her to use any effective swordsmanship.
However, after going through the tempering of the Great Trial Array, This Penniless Swordsman's swordsmanship had already reached a certain level … Oh, 'a certain level' was an understatement. This Penniless Swordsman's swordsmanship had already surpassed the boundary of 'a certain level'. In the ancient world of Wuxia, this Penniless Swordsman could be considered a famous swordsman.
Moreover, Qingpin had reached the first level. His physical fitness had increased by 2.5 times. In reality, his physical fitness was about the same as a Sword Maiden's. Killing the lowest level of Yuan Kou was as easy as chopping melons and vegetables for him.
On the surface, the 1.2-meter tall Qingpin running into the horde of strange uncles and bad zombies was like sending a sheep into a tiger's mouth. He would definitely be eaten on the spot.
However, in reality, it was as if a heavy truck had charged in. Wherever Qingpin went, the zombies' heads would fly. Qingpin didn't waste a single slash. Every slash was aimed at the zombies' necks.
Moreover, every slash was clean and efficient, and the zombie's head was chopped off. There was never a need for a second slash.
In game terms, Qingpin's attack power had exceeded the zombies' health points. One slash was all it took to kill the zombies.
In just a short while, the zombies were reduced by half. Soon, they would all die under Qingpin's sword.
"Guhan, what level is this Sword Maiden?
What's her name? "Misaka Mikoto asked Guhan after watching Qingpin's performance.
"She's Qingpin. She's my Sword Maiden, an Ancient Sword Maiden!"
Guhan smiled when he said Qingpin's name. He then grabbed Misaka Mikoto's arm and pulled her to his side.
Misaka Mikoto unsheathed her Heavenly Sword. All she saw was a flash of silver light from the sword. Then, she heard the sound of watermelons falling to the ground beside her.
"So, you've noticed!"
Misaka Mikoto turned around and saw a few more zombie corpses beside her. Their heads had been chopped off by Gu Han's Heavenly Sword that was dripping with blood.
Misaka Mikoto had noticed that some of the Yuan Kou were trying to ambush her and Guhan from behind. However, Misaka Mikoto did not tell Guhan about it. She wanted to see how miserable Guhan would look when he was ambushed by the Yuan Kou.
She was not worried that Guhan would be injured by the Yuan Kou. Guhan had a shield around him. The Yuan Kou would not be able to break through his shield unless they surrounded him and attacked him for a few hours.
As for Misaka Mikoto herself … Although Misaka Mikoto had lost the ability to attack others, it was an entirely different matter if someone attacked her first. The electric current coursing through Misaka Mikoto's body would let the Genin who tried to ambush her understand the principle of being a Genin.
"I'm the Sword Master. If I can't even notice these ambushes, how can I be the Sword Master?!"
Guhan took out a handkerchief from his dimensional pocket. He wiped the blood off the Heavenly Sword and put it back into his scabbard.
Misaka Mikoto stared at the Heavenly Sword for a while.
"I have a question. I'm not sure if I should ask it." Misaka Mikoto hesitated for a while.
"Ask away!
What do you want to ask? "Guhan looked at Misaka Mikoto curiously.
"You're a Famed Sword Tier sword wielder. Why did you lie to your friend and say that you're a Treasure Sword Tier sword wielder?" Misaka Mikoto asked the question in her mind.
