Chapter 79: Hunting The Level 4 Venomous Zombie
Tap-tap-tap…
The huge earth wolf was swift. The group of people traversed through the forest as fast as lightning.
“My lord, it’s nearby. Be careful of that zombie. It is good at hiding. Don’t be ambushed by him.”
A few minutes later, they arrived at the spot where she had been injured the day before. Adelia looked wary.
“Don’t worry, everything is within the lord’s control.” Lin Ye said confidently.
At this moment, he activated both his talents.
Whoosh—
His black pupils released dense domain ripples. As long as there was danger, it would quickly send a notification.
Furthermore, Heart’s Web was suitable for all-around surveillance.
As long as there was any abnormal movement from the Level 4 Venomous Zombie, it would immediately be discovered.
As expected.
After searching for a while, a notification from ‘hint’ came.
“Hint: In 65 degrees northwest, 89 meters away from you, there are a large number of zombies lying in ambush in the bushes.”
“Hint: In the opposite direction, at the same distance, there are also a few zombies lying in ambush.”
[Hint: There is something in the opponent’s camp whose level far exceeds the level of your talent. Unable to a.n.a.lyze its energy level or its exact location.]
“Level which far surpa.s.ses mine?”
Lin Ye narrowed his eyes. His ‘hint’ talent was still at Level 1, and so level-wise, it was sure to lose out.
Even so, Level 1-3 zombies were almost unable to escape the detection of ‘hint’.
Only when the other party was Level 4 could a notification like this happen.
This guy should be that Level 4 Venomous Zombie…
Whatever. He would think about it after he got there.
“The others move towards 65 degrees in the northwest direction. Adelia, lead your rangers.”
Lin Ye immediately pointed to the southeast and said, “Shoot at the bushes 89 meters away in that direction!”
“Oh, okay.”
Adelia nodded.
Although she did not know about Lin Ye’s Heart’s Web, she knew that her lord had already obtained Zhang Liang’s talent and was proficient at scouting.
In addition, as a loyalist, her lord’s orders had to be completed no matter what.
The other wolf cavalries were the same and they charged towards the ordinary zombies in the northwest direction.
“Storm of Arrows!”
Adelia took a deep breath.
Having recovered, she was now a proper Cla.s.s 4 elite who did not use an upgrade scroll either.
She was definitely one of the best among her peers.
Combined with the strongest Cla.s.s 4 Silver Tier Wind Splitting Bow in the territory, her offensive power was comparable to a peak stage Cla.s.s 5 Elite.
Whoosh—
The bowstring of the Wind Splitting Bow was pulled taut.
Moments later, elemental energy filled with terrifying cutting power condensed between the bowstring and the tips of her fingers.
“Elemental power.” Lin Ye looked on enviously.
However, he was confident that he could obtain this power as well after destroying the Haunted House.
At that time, elemental power combined with firearms would have stronger destructive power as compared to bow-type weapons.
Swish!
Soon, when the wolf cavalry team charged into the pile of zombies lying in ambush and started killing, Adelia shot her strongest arrow.
The arrow tore through the air and transformed into a sky-blue colored arrow beam, directly tearing through the gra.s.s and hitting a Level 3 supervisor zombie in the chest.
Bang!
The wound exploded, and half of the Level 3 zombie’s body was smashed into pieces, causing it to die instantly.
The other Cla.s.s 2 rangers also shot dozens of arrows, clearing the Level 2 zombies which stood around the Level 3 zombie.
“Over there!” He pointed to another location.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
With the arrow rain of ordinary Cla.s.s 2 rangers and the terrifying Storm of Arrows, he killed another two Level 3 Supervisor Zombies and five Level 2 Swift Zombies.
“I can’t believe they were all not it.” Lin Ye frowned.
Obviously, these Level 2 and 3 zombies were all subordinates of the Level 4 Venomous Zombie.
This little boss was more cunning than he thought.
No wonder he still fell for the trap despite having Zhang Liang’s ‘hint’ talent.
“Roar—”
In the distance, roars came from the dark and sinister fog. It seemed like it was controlling the zombies lying in ambush from afar.
Whoosh—
Moments later, a large number of zombies charged out from the bushes.
“Wolf cavalry! Retreat!”
Adelia bellowed.
“Yes, Lady Chiliarch!”
The leader of the wolf cavalry killed the last zombie with an axe. Riding a Wind Wolf, he led the way towards the ambush in the southwest direction.
Rumble!!!
The strength of the Cla.s.s 3 Wind Wolf and Earth Wolf was strong.
One of them spat out green wind blades while the other activated its earthen yellow shield to lead the group of cavalry soldiers forward.
Furthermore, they were all wearing Cla.s.s 3 Purple Tier armor—Protector’s Armor.
Its defensive power allowed them to be able to ignore Level 2 Swift Zombies. With the two of them combined, even a Level 3 Supervisor Zombie could not break its defense.
Bang bang—
After a round of crazy bites, the zombies were beaten down by the Cla.s.s 3 soldier until his head was covered in blood, and its health bar rapidly fell.
“It’s not too bad since we’re strong enough to crush them.” Adelia was relieved to see this.
This time, it was much better than last time.
The battle that time made her heartache.
It was the first expedition she led and more than a dozen rangers had died during it.
She almost died as well and embarra.s.sed the ranger race in front of her lord. She hated that Level 4 Venomous Zombie so much.
This time, the lord had personally led a team to avenge her, and they were accompanied by the Cla.s.s 3 Wolf Cavalry Soldiers.
Not everyone could enjoy such an honor.
Furthermore, this level of combat experience was simply too awesome.
She did not even need to move and all she did was sit on the back of her mount.
She simply had to follow her lord’s instructions and hit wherever he pointed at. All she had to do was to release her Storm of Arrows crazily. It felt very comfortable.
Soon, Lin Ye pointed to another place.
“Ignore the cavalry. Continue to shoot at Southwest 72 degrees, 383 meters away!”
This had already exceeded the range of ‘hint’.
However, just now, Heart’s Web captured an afterimage from his unlimited perspective.
The other party was fast. After rushing out of the fog, it evidently saw a large number of his subordinates die. That fellow couldn’t hold it in anymore.
“Great!”
Adelia remained silent. Right now, she blindly worshipped her lord for being all-knowing.
With all her might, she used the family’s secret manual.
Double Storm Flare!
Swish! Swish!
Her fingers were so fast that they left afterimages as she shot out two storm arrows in a row.
Be it its power or speed, they were the same as before.
Two arrows emitting sky-blue colored energy tore through the air and struck the tree 383 meters away.
Gurgles!!
The power of the first arrow exploded, and its terrifying wind attribute’s cutting power tore through the tree.
The second arrow almost grazed through the gap which was torn open and hit the figure steadily, dragging it as it crashed into a towering tree opposite.
Whoosh—
The tree collapsed, raising a cloud of dust.
“Is it dead?” Adelia revealed an expression of confusion.
With her current combat power, she could indeed kill a Level 4 Venomous Zombie instantly, but she had to hit its heart or head.
For zombies Level 3 and above, its defense and vitality would increase greatly.
It was not that easy to kill them.
For example, the Cla.s.s 3 Wolf Cavalry Soldiers over there all leveled up using upgrade scrolls. Their abilities were greatly restricted when it came to dealing with those of the same level.
Killing Level 1 and Level 2 was fine and would usually score an instant kill.
However, if they encountered a Level 3 Supervisor Zombie, it would be difficult to kill it singlehandedly without slashing it a dozen times.
It was only because they had more people that the fight became much easier.
“Wait, don’t go over!”
