Zhuang Qing, who had fallen to the ground, clutched his head and face as if grabbing into rotten flesh. Soon, the corrosive liquid, several times stronger than strong acid, poured into his eye sockets, corroding his eyeballs and invading his brain. He struggled continuously, but his struggles gradually weakened, and he ultimately died.
The undead creature capable of spraying strong acid had already pounced on others. Every time it sprayed a mouthful of strong acid, someone would be hit, screaming and writhing on the ground. In the blink of an eye, seven or eight people were sprayed with its strong acid gastric fluid.
The wolf dog howled and pounced, leading Zhou Yun and Zhou Hua to break through the encirclement. Following closely behind were Su Yao, Tang Sanli, Tao Zhi, and others.
This wolf dog's current strength was slightly stronger than that of an average second-level Awakened.
Suddenly, it collided heavily with an undead creature.
The wolf dog let out a low growl and was knocked rolling away.
The undead creature that had knocked the wolf dog away had an abnormally large head, larger than that of a normal human or other undead creatures. Its head was hairless, and a faint light emanated from the top. It had just used this head to collide with the wolf dog.
A deep hole was formed in the wolf dog's abdomen.
The hardness of this head could be compared to that of rock.
It moved on all fours like a dog, with extremely rapid speed. After knocking the wolf dog away, it suddenly lunged forward and collided with Zhou Hua, who was behind.
Zhou Hua was only a first-level Awakened. When hit by the rock-hard head of the undead creature, he instantly suffered a head injury, bleeding profusely and flying backward.
"Brother—" Zhou Yun cried out, wanting to save him, but the undead creature pressed down on Zhou Hua and collided with his head again.
With a "pu" sound, Zhou Hua's scream abruptly stopped. The two heads collided with terrifying force, and the undead creature's head remained unscathed, while Zhou Hua's head split open.
Zhou Yun watched helplessly as her brother was killed by the undead creature with a rock-hard head. She let out a piercing scream, forgetting that her strength was about the same as her brother's. Her eyes turned bloodshot, and she charged forward recklessly to avenge her brother.
The wolf dog also turned around instantly and pounced viciously on the undead creature, determined to avenge its master.
With a "pu" sound.
Suddenly, from the dark distance, a stone shot out like a bullet and hit the wolf dog's forehead in mid-air.
Although the wolf dog's forehead was the hardest part of its body, it still exploded instantly, with brain matter splattering. The stone crushed its head completely.
The wolf dog, which had pounced in mid-air, fell heavily and rolled. When it landed, its crushed head twitched once before it died.
Zhou Yun, who had rushed forward, suddenly found her neck tightened and was unable to breathe. She was grabbed by the neck by the undead creature that had just killed her brother and was lifted up.
She was about to die like her brother and the wolf dog, but she lost her fear.
Her brother was dead, and the wolf dog was dead. Living on had no meaning. She might as well die with them.
She laughed bitterly.
Almost at the same moment, a figure darted into the crowd like a ghost. The spider claw in his right hand, emitting a faint light, swept across the neck of the undead creature with a rock-hard head.
With a "chi" sound, although its head was as hard as rock, its neck was similar to that of other undead creatures. The spider claw cut through it, and the massive rock-like head fell heavily to the ground.
The headless body fell a second later.
Zhou Yun, who had not been killed, fell to the ground, dazed, not understanding what had happened. Then she saw Chu Nan rush to her, pick her up, and push her forward, shouting, "Run!"
He then ducked to avoid a stone that suddenly shot over.
The stone, like a cannonball, hit another person's back, creating a large hole.
The person screamed and fell heavily.
Chu Nan finally returned, and even more terrifying was the bone-armored undead creature leading a more powerful army of undead and zombie creatures.
From a distance of several dozen meters, he used thrown stones to kill the wolf dog, which was stronger than an average second-level Awakened, and then quickly blew the heads off two people.
On either side of the bone-armored undead creature, two special undead creatures were rushing toward the fleeing crowd.
One had a tail-like mutation extending from its coccyx, and the other had a split forehead with an abnormally evolved pineal gland protruding, like a third eye in the middle of its forehead.
These two undead creatures targeted Chu Nan, who was chasing the fleeing group.
Out of more than seventy people, from being attacked by zombies to the appearance of a large number of undead creatures, the number of deaths in a short time exceeded thirty.
Chu Nan returned, his mouth emitting a low whistle. The spider claw displayed unimaginable power, unstoppable. Every time he swung it, a zombie or undead creature would fall.
In a short time, he killed more than a dozen, rushing to where Su Yao, Tao Zhi, and Tang Sanli were surrounded and in danger. He shouted, "Follow me!" and led the charge, determined to open a gap and lead everyone out of the encirclement. Otherwise, everyone would die.
"Roar—"
An undead creature crouched on the ground and pounced like a leopard, its hands grabbing fiercely at Chu Nan.
Chu Nan's figure swayed, avoiding the undead creature's pounce. The spider claw in his right hand sliced across its neck.
The spider claw was so sharp that it cut through the undead creature like tofu. Its head and body separated, each flying in a different direction.
Chu Nan landed and turned sharply, kicking out his right leg like a whip.
With a "pa" sound, the undead creature that had pounced from the other side was kicked away at a faster and more violent speed.
The terrifying force exploded inside the undead creature, and its bones and flesh burst open.
Chu Nan's appearance instantly changed the situation. He led everyone, rushing more than ten meters away from the city. Shen Mo, Nangong Xiong, Xia Qiu, and others retreated in unison, gathering behind Chu Nan. Now, only by working together did they have a chance to escape.
As long as they escaped the encirclement of the undead creatures, they had a chance to survive.
Suddenly, two undead creatures appeared on either side of Chu Nan, both with special arm mutations, possessing unimaginable strength, and pounced at him viciously.
Chu Nan's body swayed, and the spider claw in his right hand was about to slash out when another undead creature suddenly appeared behind him. This undead creature had a special evolved gastric fluid and a tube-like mouth that sprayed a large amount of liquid.
The situation was sudden, and even someone as strong as Chu Nan could not simultaneously defend against the attacks of two terrifying undead creatures and the gastric fluid from behind.
"Be careful!" Tang Sanli, who was behind, suddenly pushed Chu Nan, and the liquid sprayed onto his back.
"Ah—"
Tang Sanli let out a sharp scream. His clothes immediately corroded and rotted, emitting a large amount of smoke. He fell heavily to the ground, writhing in pain.
Su Yao kicked out a heavy foot, and the undead creature that had sprayed the strong acid gastric fluid was knocked off balance and fell.
Chu Nan roared, and with a "hong" sound, his right leg, like a dragon's tail, kicked one of the arm-mutated undead creatures.
Although this undead creature's arms had unimaginable strength, they could not withstand Chu Nan's furious kick and were knocked back and fell heavily.
At the same time, he swung the spider claw, slicing the other arm-mutated undead creature from top to bottom, splitting it open.
A continuous flow of genetic origin force from the killed undead creatures surged into his body. The origin force in his head boiled and pulsed, as if it could break through and evolve at any moment.
His body tightened. Just as he had split open the undead creature, another one grabbed him.
Chu Nan turned his body, throwing the undead creature that had grabbed him. Suddenly, his back was hit hard.
The attacker was the undead creature with a split forehead, its pineal gland exposed like a third eye. It had pursued Chu Nan, ignoring the other humans and attacking only him.
Its speed, strength, reaction, and agility were even greater than that of a third-level Awakened.
A single grab left Chu Nan's back bleeding profusely.
Shen Mo, Nangong Xiong, Xia Qiu, and others encountered undead creatures that were not inferior to them, or even more powerful.
Everyone was trapped.
The bone-armored undead creature, the leader, had not even moved. It stood in the darkness, casually tossing stones. Whenever it saw an opportunity, it would throw a stone, and someone in the crowd would instantly have their head smashed into a bloody mess, falling dead.
Tao Zhi let out a roar. His massive body gave him nearly twice the strength of a human at his level. He suddenly grabbed an undead creature with both arms, and a series of crisp sounds came from the undead creature's body.
When he released it, the undead creature fell limply, its bones shattered.
The number of people who had fallen and died exceeded forty.
Of course, the undead creatures and zombies also paid a heavy price. The total number of dead zombies and undead creatures exceeded a hundred.
However, in the darkness all around, more and more zombies and undead creatures continued to appear.
This was their world.
The most terrifying were not the countless zombies or the ordinary undead creatures, but the special mutants with strength comparable to third-level Awakened or even surpassing them.
These undead creatures included those with special arm mutations and immense strength, those with leg mutations and terrifying speed, those that could spray gastric fluid several times stronger than strong acid, and those with heads as hard as rock...
