Chapter 49 49. Pseudo-strengthening level one
The figure got closer and closer, it was a zombie, a female zombie to be precise.
The zombie's body is extremely shriveled, its skin is dark brown like dry bark, but its belly is very conspicuously bulging.
From a distance, it looks like a long-legged spider strolling over with a huge belly.
You can also see that there are rows of black holes in arcs on the dark brown skin, all over the body. Those are teeth marks.
A special smell carried in the wind, a putrid smell with a strange fragrance, similar to musk.
The smell is very light and can be easily ignored if you don't identify it carefully.
Is this a first-level zombie? Luo Tong is not sure.
The first-level zombies she had seen would grow eyeballs and regenerate their body muscles.
But the eye socket in front of me was deeply sunken, and the eyeball had long since shriveled. The muscles in its limbs were severely atrophied, just like an ordinary zombie.
It's just that...her belly...black blood vessels can still be seen under the dark brown skin, and the navel is the center where the blood vessels converge.
Moreover, Luo Tong discovered that this zombie actually had two crystal nuclei, both located at the navel.
One is darker, while the other is bright white. This is indeed a first-order strengthened crystal nucleus.
The result was obvious, the first-level enhanced zombie was not the female zombie, but the child in her belly.
After humans become zombies, babies grow faster than adults.
However, baby zombies have a fatal flaw: their combat effectiveness is obviously inferior to the latter, so the baby zombies that survive are very rare.
Only with the protection of female zombies can this baby zombie evolve to the first level so quickly.
"Mom, Dad, Uncle Lu, you go first!"
"No! Let's deal with it together!" Luo Zhiguo held the newly made weapon in his hand and was eager to try it.
"Dad! This is no ordinary zombie! You can't deal with it!"
"How about... let's run together!"
Luo Tong was speechless, "Aunt Juan! Take little Lucky away first!"
Seeing Aunt Juan and Lu Xiaoning running back with Little Lucky, Luo Tong grabbed the bone cutter and rushed forward.
My parents are both stubborn and can't make any sense.
She couldn't care so much when the situation was imminent, so she took action to hold back her hatred first.
His leg muscles exploded, and he struck the zombie head-on with an axe.
The zombie raised its withered face like a mummy, bared its black teeth and roared at Luo Tong.
The hand that looked like a dead branch blocked Luo Tong's attack.
Luo Tong was frightened and leaned away to avoid the other hand waving towards him.
Quickly and dexterously changing steps, he circled behind the zombie and struck down again.
Who would have thought that the zombie seemed to have eyes on its back, its body swayed to the side strangely, and it blocked the blow with its shoulder.
The ax blade cut into the shoulder blade, and there was no black blood, only outturned skin and white bones.
Luo Tong was horrified. With her precision, she actually missed the hit.
Moreover, her power can completely split the zombie into two, but now it only cuts into the bones.
Luo Tong noticed that the hand used by the zombie to resist the attack was twisted at a strange angle along with the arm, and the bones were obviously broken.
This female zombie is likely to be affected by the fetus in her belly. Its bones are harder than ordinary zombies and its reaction speed is faster.
But this one is not a first-level zombie after all, so it seems that he still has a chance.
"You go first! I am confident to deal with it!" Luo Tong shouted to several people in the distance.
Luo Zhiguo and others were all stunned by the scene of the fight just now, and they stood there unable to recover for a while.
According to Luo Zhiguo's plan, everyone would go together, and after all, he was just a zombie.
There are so many of them, and one knife per person is enough to cut the zombie into pieces.
But the action of Luo Tong and the zombies just now was so fast that they didn't even see it clearly. How could anyone help him?
Among them, Lu Xiao reacted the fastest and most decisively. He immediately turned around and ran back with the others.
"Let's leave first and don't distract Luo Tong."
Luo Zhiguo wanted to help his daughter, but he couldn't help her at all.
Only then did he react after hearing Lu Xiao's words, and ran back with his wife, who was still in a daze.
"Are the first-level enhanced zombies so powerful!?" Xu Haoyu asked as he ran, with panic in his tone.
"Luo Tong said that zombies evolve very quickly, far beyond humans. It seems that what she said is true." Lu Xiao looked back with a heavy expression.
"Can Luo Tong do it?"
"If she can't do it, the result will be the same if we help her."
Glancing at Luo Tong's parents, Lu Xiao added another sentence.
"Don't worry, since she let us go, she will be sure to deal with it."
Although Lu Xiao said this, everyone was still very uneasy, and several people also had a deep understanding of the growth rate of zombies.
It's hard to imagine what kind of terrifying scene it would be like once those slow-moving zombies became flexible and strong. What's more, there were so many zombies, thinking of these people couldn't help but speed up their pace.
At this moment, Luo Tong was staring at the ugly zombie in front of her. She had no way of defeating him with one blow, she could only weaken the opponent's combat effectiveness little by little.
First one hand was broken, then the other.
She used powerful blows again and again to destroy every supporting bone on this pseudo-strengthened first-level body.
In the high-speed confrontation, Luo Tong consumed a lot of energy.
The zombie in front of it was not much better. The broken bones in many parts of its body made it unable to move and dodge quickly. Especially after the broken thigh bone, it could only support itself on one leg and could not catch up with Luo Tong in terms of speed.
His breathing gradually became heavier, and the sweat on his forehead kept dripping, but the zombie was as persistent and tireless as ever.
Luo Tong took half a step back, not to retreat, but to accumulate strength for the next explosion.
At the moment when the zombies attacked again, Luo Tong aimed at the target...the zombie's swollen belly.
She didn't have the time or energy to spend any more time, she had to hit the vital point this time.
Luo Tong aimed at the bright white crystal core and used all his strength...
On the other side, Luo Zhiguo and others returned to the processing factory without any danger.
After quickly closing the door, he even used a heavy machine tool to block the door, leaving only a space for one person to pass through.
Waiting made several people restless. In order to relieve their uneasiness, Luo Zhiguo and Lu Xiangjun continued to make the unfinished weapons yesterday. Lu Xiao and Xu Haoyu also helped find materials.
Several women sat together and vented their inner uneasiness with tears.
Only Little Lucky was fiddling with the nuts on the ground intently, seemingly not caring about anything.
Minute by minute, time has never been so difficult.
Low sobs echoed in the empty factory building, and the air seemed to become stagnant and sluggish.
Luo Zhiguo finally couldn't bear it anymore, dropped what he was doing, and was about to yell at his wife who was wiping her tears.
Before the sound came out, the movement at the door startled everyone.
Even Little Lucky raised his head and looked at the door with wide black and white eyes.
A figure walked through the door and said, "I'm back."
