Chapter 64

The speed of the two figures was astonishing, even surpassing the full burst speed of Chu Nan as he sprinted. The two figures leaped and ran across the rooftops of buildings, quickly landing on a distant overpass that had collapsed halfway. The figure in the lead picked up a stone and suddenly turned to throw it backward.

Chu Nan's eyes widened in surprise and shock. He finally saw clearly that the figure running in the lead was the bone-armored undead.

A terrifying undead whose strength was almost on par with his. Based on Chu Nan's assessment, the opponent was likely a Level 5 undead, having evolved to the same level as himself.

"Whoosh—"

The stone shot toward the figure chasing from behind. The figure turned out to be a woman.

Chu Nan stimulated his adrenaline and enhanced his vision. Despite the distance of several hundred meters, he could still clearly see the woman chasing the bone-armored undead. Her clothes were tattered, exposing large areas of snow-white skin. Her ample chest was almost bursting out of her clothes, and without any support, it bounced continuously as she chased.

However, Chu Nan could tell that this woman was also an undead. A large chunk of her waist and abdomen had been gouged out, leaving a bloody hole. But because it had already scabbed over, no blood was flowing. Such a severe injury would have killed an ordinary person, and from her pale, lifeless face, Chu Nan could determine that she was also an undead.

A female undead who could chase the bone-armored undead had black hair over a meter long. As she ran, these over-meter-long black strands writhed like they had a life of their own.

The stone thrown by the bone-armored undead was like a bullet, but it was caught by the long hair of the chasing female undead, bundled together, and easily received.

Chu Nan, seeing this from a distance, felt his heart leap with shock. The female undead's hair had undergone a mutation and evolution.

Using her bizarre black hair, she caught the stone, swung her hair, and the stone suddenly flew out, shooting back at the bone-armored undead in front.

The bone-armored undead's figure flickered, dodging the stone. Suddenly, it let out a hoarse roar, its figure accelerated, and it leaped, with a bone knife extending from the outside of its right arm, stabbing into the overpass pillar and sliding down.

From a height of several dozen meters, it landed instantly and continued sprinting, its target being Chu Nan and his group of eight.

"Trouble!"

Chu Nan's muscles instantly tensed, and he shouted, "Run!"

For some unknown reason, the bone-armored undead and the female undead with mutated hair were fighting, and the bone-armored undead seemed to be at a disadvantage. Thus, they were fighting and chasing each other to this place.

When they saw Chu Nan and his group, the bone-armored undead immediately charged toward them.

The other seven people, hearing Chu Nan's words, immediately started following him, sprinting down the Yangtze Road to the other side.

Soon, Chu Nan had pulled away from the others, but he suddenly stopped, sighing inwardly.

If he were alone, with his speed, he could easily outpace the bone-armored undead. However, Su Yao, Shen Mo, Tang Sanli, and the others, in terms of speed, could not escape the bone-armored undead.

Even if he could escape, the other seven would be caught and killed. Chu Nan could not be so heartless, so he slowed down.

On the other side, the bone-armored undead quickly caught up to within a hundred meters, charging over at lightning speed.

The female undead with mutated hair, chasing the bone-armored undead, also rushed up. At this moment, she had also noticed Chu Nan and his group.

Her black hair danced, constantly changing shape, sometimes bundled together like a black whip, sometimes divided into strands like black snakes, looking extremely eerie and terrifying.

In the Fuchun Garden, a large number of undead and zombies were gathering, more and more, one hundred, two hundred, three hundred...

They formed a terrifying zombie tide, surging out of Fuchun Garden.

Chu Nan knew that this time, they were in trouble.

Everyone was running with all their might, and the slowest among them was indeed Tang Sanli.

Jiang Lao had also awakened his power and was a Level 2 Awakened.

Chu Nan had to grab Tang Sanli, but soon he gave up because the bone-armored undead had caught up.

Jiang Lao, Zhang Xiang, Tao Zhi, and others were all Level 2 Awakened, while the bone-armored undead was at least Level 5. They had no chance of escaping.

The bone-armored undead let out a hoarse, inhuman laugh, suddenly accelerated, and two bone knives extended from the outside of its arms. It pounced, aiming at Jiang Lao, who was running at the back.

Chu Nan had pulled Tang Sanli to accelerate, so now Jiang Lao was at the back of the group.

Knowing they couldn't escape, Jiang Lao did not panic but stopped, holding a steel rod and blocking with it.

With a "swoosh," the bone knife hit the steel rod, and Jiang Lao's palm split open, the rod flying away.

Jiang Lao grunted, and he was thrown back.

The bone-armored undead showed a human-like sneer, and with the other bone knife, it aimed to slice Jiang Lao's upper body.

At the same moment, Chu Nan appeared, his golden right leg sweeping horizontally.

With a "boom," he kicked the bone knife. His right leg, reinforced by golden power, was as hard as steel, and even the bone knife could not harm it.

The bone-armored undead's eyes showed fear, and it staggered back a step.

Shen Mo, Nan Gong Xiong, Su Yao, and others, who were running ahead, also stopped.

The female undead with mutated hair, with her flying black hair, blocked their path.

The bone-armored undead let out a series of hoarse roars, seemingly communicating with the female undead.

The female undead ignored it and pounced directly at the group.

Su Yao, Shen Mo, Nan Gong Xiong, Zhang Xiang, and Tao Zhi all roared in anger, each instantly awakening their powers.

Even knowing that awakening would bring terrible side effects, they had no choice but to fight. The other side was too fast, and they couldn't escape.

Fortunately, they had temporarily shaken off the undead and zombies surging out of Fuchun Garden. It would take some time for the undead army to catch up.

This bit of time would be their last chance.

Except for Jiang Lao and Chu Nan, the others all charged forward bravely.

No one retreated.

Su Yao, Shen Mo, Nan Gong Xiong, Zhang Xiang, Tao Zhi, and Tang Sanli all awakened their strongest powers, wielding their weapons, and rushed forward, hoping to resolve the female undead with mutated hair in the shortest time.

Only by resolving her would they have a chance to escape.

At this critical moment, no one hesitated.

Chu Nan would block the bone-armored undead, who was chasing from behind.

The two sides clashed instantly, spider claws and bone knives colliding, making "clanging" sounds.

The bone knives could not destroy the spider claws, and the spider claws could not cut the bone knives.

Even Chu Nan hesitated at the sight of the six people, Su Yao and Shen Mo, pouncing together.

The female undead stopped, and her over-meter-long black hair suddenly exploded outward.

Almost instantly, the black hair split into six strands, like six snakes. Su Yao's steel rod, Shen Mo's iron rod... including Tang Sanli's rhinoceros horn, were all instantly entangled by her six strands of hair.

Her hair had mutated, not only growing longer but also becoming incredibly tough. A bundle of black hair could likely bear more weight than ordinary steel wire.

All of this happened in an instant. The weapons of the six people were entangled by her black hair. In the next moment, she lunged forward, her right hand spread, and she grabbed Zhang Xiang's face.

Zhang Xiang let out a terrified cry, feeling his face as if suddenly clamped by an iron vise. At the same time, her black hair contracted, and everyone felt a tremendous force trying to snatch their weapons.

Steel rods, iron rods, short knives... the weapons of Su Yao, Shen Mo, Nan Gong Xiong, and the others were instantly snatched away.

Only Tang Sanli's rhinoceros horn, which was entangled, suddenly burst with a strange primal force.

The female undead's body trembled, and the black hair that had entangled the rhinoceros horn, as if electrocuted, suddenly scattered.

Tang Sanli took advantage of the moment and struck her shoulder with the rhinoceros horn.

A terrifying sound came from the female undead's mouth.

Her shoulder instantly caved in.

She grabbed Zhang Xiang's face and swung him away. Zhang Xiang grunted and hit Tang Sanli.

Tang Sanli let out a惨叫, and the two rolled away together.

The female undead, caught off guard, did not expect Tang Sanli's rhinoceros horn to be a genetic weapon, not an ordinary stick. Hit by it, her left arm was temporarily immobilized.

If it were Chu Nan using the rhinoceros horn, the female undead's shoulder would have been shattered, and her arm would have been severed.

The female undead, injured in the first encounter, let out a terrifying sound. Having evolved to her level, she was different from ordinary zombies or undead. She could make sounds, possess human intelligence, and even various emotions, though she still couldn't master or recover the language of her former human self.

Zhang Xiang and Tang Sanli, after colliding and rolling away, saw the female undead's hair wrap around the other five weapons, writhing like five extra arms, each holding a weapon and attacking Su Yao, Tao Zhi, Shen Mo, and Nan Gong Xiong with extreme ferocity.

Su Yao and the others were shocked and dodged.

The female undead's figure flashed, and she suddenly darted forward. Her true target was not Su Yao and the others but Tang Sanli, who had rolled to the side.

Hit by Tang Sanli's rhinoceros horn on her shoulder, the female undead with mutated hair held a grudge and wanted to kill Tang Sanli first and take the rhinoceros horn from him.
