Chapter 50 Sword-Backed Zombie
Under Xiao Hao"s leadership, Kong Yun shuttled through the complicated underground sewers. Several times, when Kong Yun discovered danger and wanted to warn Xiao Hao, Xiao Hao could always change directions in advance, avoiding the weak mutated beasts and zombies.
The underground sewers of Zhan Long City stretched out in all directions and were extremely complicated. Xiao Hao"s memory had already surpa.s.sed that of an ordinary person when he was able to memorize the entire sewers.
Although the underground was much safer than the ground, there were still sporadic zombies roaming in the underground sewers. Moreover, there were many animals infected by the Tian Qi virus that became mutated beasts. The most common ones were rats and c.o.c.kroaches. Hound-sized rats and cat-like c.o.c.kroaches were everywhere.
The so-called security is only relative security, Even though the mutated rats and c.o.c.kroaches weren"t that powerful, once their numbers reached a certain level, it would be extremely dangerous. Moreover, once a fight broke out, it would alert the zombies in the underground sewers. Even the zombies on the ground would be alarmed. At that time, they would truly die.
Xiao Hao was always able to avoid danger. He relied on his mutated eyes. Unlike Kong Yun"s superhuman hearing, Xiao Hao could see it more intuitively. Not only did that pair of mutated eyes give Xiao Hao extraordinary eyesight, it must also have other special powers.
Just as Kong Yun was about to faint, Xiao Hao finally stopped and carefully opened the iron fence. This was their landing place, carefully chosen by Xiao Hao. There were no mutated beasts and zombies nearby, and it was the safest place in the sewers of Zhan Long City.
"Brother Xiaohu, is that you?" A timid voice came from inside.
"We"re back. We brought back a lot of food." Little Tiger raised the dried meat in his hand. These dried meat were naturally from Kong Yun"s backpack.
"Great, there"s food, there"s food!" Instantly, cheers came from inside.
Five skinny children appeared in front of Kong Yun. They were all young and between the ages of seven and nine. Because of hunger, the faces of these children were very pale, and their skinny bodies seemed to be able to reach them in a gust of wind.
War Dragon City had been ravaged by zombies for more than three months. During these three months, these children could only hide in the sewers. The amount of food they could find was very limited. It was already very difficult for them to survive until now.
Originally, there were sixteen of them, but many of them did not survive. Hunger and disease took their lives.
Kong Yun leaned against the corner of the wall and watched the children wolf down without stopping them. Even if eating like this would hurt their bodies, he did not stop them. The bodies of these children were on the verge of collapse. With food, who would care so much?
Among the five children, Kong Yun did not discover the existence of an Adept. To be able to discover two children who had awakened an Adept in Zhan Long City was already a miracle. Even if he wanted to meet an Adept, Kong Yun felt that he was a little greedy.
"Can the armored train at the station still be used?" Kong Yun sat down.
"It should work. That armored train came before the zombies attacked the city. When they encountered the zombies attacking the city, they stayed there before they could leave. It seems that they didn"t suffer any damage." Xiao Hao said that they had also approached the armored train while looking for food. With Xiao Hao"s eyesight, he could easily see the specific situation of the armored train and did not suffer any serious injuries.
The armor of the armored train was very thick, and it was forged from a new type of alloy. Its defense was extremely strong. Even if it was bombarded with heavy artillery, it would not leave the slightest trace on the armor of the armored train.
With Zhanlong City"s smelting level and technology, it was impossible to produce such an armored train. Only Tianjing City possessed the technology to produce an armored train. Tianjing City used this technology to connect dozens of cities in China.
Although human flying equipment had made a breakthrough after the Heavenly Awakening Year, the sky was the territory of mutated beasts. Until it was a last resort, humans would not fly into the sky. This type of armored train had become the main means of transportation for humans.
The armoured train hadn"t been damaged. It could be said to be a great fortune amidst misfortune. At the very least, Kong Yun saw hope of leaving this place.
"Are you leaving in an armored train?" Xiao Hao asked.
"Yes, I"m going to Sea Mountain City. It should be very safe there." Kong Yun nodded.
"Impossible. There"s a very powerful zombie inside the armored train." Xiao Hao shook his head.
"Very powerful zombies? What do they look like?" Kong Yun frowned.
"He has golden armor and a sword on his back!" Xiao Hao said.
Speaking of the zombie, Xiao Hao"s face was filled with fear. They were still looking for food when they approached the armored train, but through his eyes, Xiao Hao saw the zombie carrying a long sword!
Kong Yun"s face was grim. He was carrying a zombie with a sword on his back. When would a zombie use a weapon? Could it be a new type of zombie? However, he had never heard of a zombie using a sword.
According to Xiao Hao"s memories, the aura of the zombie with the sword on its back was very strong. Even the zombie was extremely afraid of it and did not dare to approach the armored train. If one had to use a single word to describe the zombie, then it could only be the king of zombies. The king of zombies could only rely on the aura to intimidate the zombies in Zhan Long City.
The number of zombies in Zhan Long City had already reached a million, but not a single zombie dared to approach the armored train, not even those new types of zombies.
"So powerful?" Kong Yun exclaimed. Zombies were all brainless walking corpses. The zombie with the sword on its back was actually able to suppress the millions of zombies in Zhan Long City. Just what kind of existence was it?
However, this zombie occupied the armored train. The armored train was Kong Yun"s only hope of leaving Zhan Long City. No matter how strong this zombie was, Kong Yun was prepared to meet him for a while.
Kong Yun"s ability had already reached the lower B level. He was already a rare expert amongst humans. Even if he could contend against a Staff Sergeant mutated beast, no matter how powerful the zombie with the sword on its back was, it wouldn"t be stronger than a Scholar mutated beast, right?
"Where is that zombie?" Kong Yun asked Xiao Hao.
"In the first carriage of the armored train, I saw him several times. He basically won"t move." Xiao Hao said.
Kong Yun nodded and placed the green backpack on the ground. "Divide the meat inside. I"ll go up and see the zombie with the sword on its back."
"That zombie is very strong, unprecedentedly strong." Xiao Hao wanted to stop Kong Yun from committing such a meaningless act of suicide.
"It"s unprecedentedly strong. Compared to me, how much stronger is it?" Kong Yun smiled.
"I don"t know, but it"s at least five times as much as yours!" Xiao Hao said solemnly.
"Your eyes can still tell the strength of your body?" Kong Yun looked at Xiao Hao"s blood-red eyes.
Xiao Hao shook his head, "I don"t know, but you really shouldn"t go. That zombie with the sword on its back is too strong!"
"If it"s only five times stronger than me, then it"s not impossible to deal with it!" Kong Yun took out two Angel Potions.
Kong Yun opened the lid of the manhole and avoided the zombies. He jumped up and shuttled through the roof. The armored train had already appeared in front of him.
"I found it, Sword Bearing Zombie!" Sure enough, in the first carriage of the armored train, there was a zombie wearing golden armor and carrying a long sword sitting cross-legged.
Sitting cross-legged was an extremely ancient sitting posture in China. The Chinese had abandoned this posture a long time ago. Apart from a few people who cultivated ancient martial arts, they would also use this posture to cultivate. This posture only existed in books, but now they saw it on a zombie, giving Kong Yun a very strange feeling.
When Kong Yun was observing the zombie, the zombie seemed to have discovered Kong Yun"s existence. He suddenly opened his eyes and looked in Kong Yun"s direction.
Kong Yun"s heart trembled. An astonishing pressure covered the sky and the earth. Kong Yun"s body stiffened. In front of this pressure, his body was actually unable to move.
"How could it be?" Kong Yun bit the tip of his tongue fiercely. The intense pain from the tip of his tongue freed him from the pressure of the zombie with the sword on his back. An angel potion quickly poured into his body and felt the surging ability. Only then did Kong Yun breathe a sigh of relief.
Dang! At some unknown time, the sword on the zombie"s back was unsheathed and circled in the sky, piercing Kong Yun"s chest.
"Flying sword!" Kong Yun let out a strange cry, jumped off the roof, and the Blazing Flame Spear appeared in his hand. He swept the tip of the spear, wanting to knock the sword away!
"Clang!" The Blazing Flame Spear broke in response. The flying sword was actually so sharp that it easily cut off the hardest Blazing Flame Spear!
Before Kong Yun could be shocked, this flying sword had already pierced through!
"How could this be?" Kong Yun was extremely shocked. The legendary flying sword actually existed, and it appeared in the hands of a zombie.
"Are you kidding me? The flying sword is clearly just a myth!" The Blazing Flame Spear in Kong Yun"s hand resisted the flying sword.
The tip of the sword collided with the tip of the spear. However, the volcanic crystal iron was as fragile as gla.s.s in front of the flying sword. The Blazing Flame Spear was slowly shattered.
"Bang!" A piece of fiery alloy suddenly flew out of Kong Yun"s palm. Flames flashed and a violent explosion destroyed all the buildings nearby.
Black smoke protruded from Kong Yun"s body, and the flying sword was drowned by the explosion of the fiery alloy!
"It should be ruined, right?" Kong Yun thought to himself as he looked at the black smoke produced by the explosion of the fiery alloy.
However, a cold light pierced through the black smoke and pierced straight towards Kong Yun!
"Pa!" A willow stick stretched out from Kong Yun"s wrist and landed on the flying sword like a whip. The flying sword that couldn"t even resist the volcanic crystal iron was actually sent flying!
"The sapling of the willow tree!" A trace of joy flashed through Kong Yun"s eyes. The sapling of the willow tree was actually so powerful!
The zombie in golden armor pointed his finger, and the flying sword that was sent flying immediately returned to his palm. The flying sword glowed slightly in his palm, and with a wave of the zombie"s arm, a sword light of about a meter appeared in the sky!
