The final gentleman

Chapter 5 Face to Face

Since I can remember,

Yi Chen had never experienced such a clear visual picture.

It feels like your eyes are like an ultra-high-pixel imager, and you can see all the details in the cemetery.

Even if the brightness of the kerosene lamp is adjusted to the lowest level, he can still see the general situation ten meters away.

【Sensory Leap】

When encountering these ‘superhuman’ abilities for the first time,

Yi Chen's brain became extremely excited, and even stimulated his body to secrete a certain amount of adrenaline, further increasing his concentration.

Confidence surges,

Dare to fight the living zombies.

Before taking action, he had one last question,

Try to communicate with the flesh ball through consciousness,

How can we completely kill the living corpse wandering around Cemetery No. 4? Behead? 』

It seems you don't understand at all.

Your understanding of this world is still at the very surface... Even if the head is cut off and the heart is removed, this kind of thing can still survive normally. At most, it will only affect their body activities.

The fundamental reason why he became like this is [sickness].

Want to kill this living corpse,

You must find and destroy the [Pathogen] on him, so that he will return to his original corpse state.

This guy is still in the early stages of infection,

The characteristics of the pathogen should be very obvious,

If you carefully observe any bulges, swelling or particularly dark spots on his body, they most likely correspond to subcutaneous pathogens.

The silver-plated hand ax in your hand is quite effective against pathogens.

As for what this guy is capable of, I don't know... Come on, don't die. 』

knew. 』

The battle begins.

Yi Chen leaned against the tombstone, quietly sticking out half of his face, and scanning the surrounding area.

A slow-moving [black shadow] appeared at the edge of the field of vision.

Focused vision,

The shambling living corpse came into view.

Very slow,

But those plant roots swaying on the back like octopus tentacles make people's scalp numb just looking at them.

It seems that once stabbed, these roots will drain the target's body fluids.

Yi Chen took a deep breath and analyzed the situation in front of him in his brain.

“There’s no time or tools to set up traps or anything like that.

The site is also limited to Cemetery No. 4, making it difficult to conduct long-distance roundabout operations.

A head-on battle is inevitable, but... before that, I have to clarify the true location of the pathogen.

Focus your vision again,

All parts of the living corpse's body, including the roots growing on the back, can be seen clearly.

There are four obvious ridges on its body surface, located on the neck, right shoulder, waist and abdomen, and right thigh.

Let's confirm...

Yi Chen picked up some nearby stones that were of suitable size and could fit into the palm of his hand.

in childhood,

Yi Chen could always win the dodgeball games in the orphanage. He could accurately hit every playmate who tried to avoid him. Even children a few years older than him were no match.

Currently, with the enhanced vision, throwing accuracy has been further improved.

Whoosh~

Four stones are fired at the target at intervals of one second.

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

Three of them hit accurately,

The corresponding skin ridges were broken and some disgusting liquid even leaked out.

And when the stone that was shot at the waist was about to hit...pop!

Just like the most basic irritability of biology,

The roots on the back of the living corpse suddenly swung out, hitting the surface of the flying stones with precision.

Like a home run, the stone flew straight out of Cemetery No. 4.

Not only that,

Several more roots followed closely behind,

They wrap around and stick to the bulge of the waist, forming a unique protective structure.

According to the direction in which the stone is shot,

The living corpse's head suddenly turned 135°, and its special eyes filled with mushrooms stared intently at the arched stone monument on the high slope.

The feeling of oppression comes,

Although Yi Chen got the answer he wanted, he was still sweating.

At least my method has achieved results. The bulge in the waist and abdomen must correspond to the [pathogen]. It also shows that this ball of meat did not deceive me.

However, this guy's 'aggressiveness' is too outrageous.

A stone that was suddenly shot like this without any warning was able to bounce away accurately... and it quickly built a protective layer around his waist.

call!

If you want to kill this living corpse, you must cut off all the roots on its back.

Otherwise, any attack on vital points will be ineffective. 』

Pa~pa~

The sound of feet treading on the soil interrupted his thoughts.

The living corpse is approaching,

Pause in front of the arched stone monument... Wow! Uh-huh!

Suddenly,

Two powerful roots rose in the air, crossed left and right, and pulled out violently.

Snapped!

The large and sturdy stone tablet was cut off directly.

destroyed together,

There was also a dark gray coat that still had the aura of being alive, and a metal breastplate also fell to the ground, with the name [William Behrens] engraved on it.

That's all,

Only the stone tablet and coat were shattered, and the young man hiding behind had already 'escaped' in advance.

Just when the living corpse was confused and had not had time to retract its roots,

There was a movement from the tomb corresponding to the broken stone tablet.

The dark shadow dormant behind him suddenly jumped out,

The silver light shining in the hand is extra dazzling,

Buzz!

The silver light draws a perfect arc in the sky,

It happened to be cut off at the intersection of the two roots... swish~ dark green rancid juice splashed out, and the two roots were completely cut off.

Not only that,

Due to being cut by the silver-plated material, thick black smoke emitted from the broken root, which could not be healed.

ah!!

The dry, decaying voice of the living corpse emitted an erosive roar, as if its important lifeline had been cut off.

Seeing this scene,

Yi Chen withdrew his hand ax, got into position, and whispered excitedly: There are 8 left!

The screams are not over yet,

The roots swaying on the back of the living corpse seemed to have self-awareness and had locked onto the 'attacker'.

They turned into sharp spears and pierced them.

【View Capture】

The eyes of Yi Chen and Rou Qiu were as wide as copper bells at this moment, focusing in front of them.

With a straight piercing attack like this, the path of every root is clearly visible.

When the distance is less than one meter,

A perfect sideways roll, avoiding all punctures from the roots.

Not only that,

At the same moment when he made a perfect dodge,

Yi Chen actually knelt down and slashed diagonally.

The root closest to him was cut off in the air,

The rancid juice splashed on his face, but it couldn't hide his smile, and he was still counting silently:

There are 7 left!

this moment,

The black flesh ball rooted in Yi Chen's shoulder couldn't help but widen his eyes, feeling incredible at the performance of this 'low-level worker'.

My vision is indeed correct...this guy is completely different from those ordinary 'meat pigs'.

In a battle like this that was full of danger and one mistake could lead to death, he actually adapted so quickly and even enjoyed it a bit.

Come on, young humans!

If I kill the abscess with such a weak body, it will definitely attract the attention of 'above'... I may also be able to use this opportunity to get a chance to go outside. 』

Just when Meatball was immersed in the fantasy of freedom,

ah! Another burst of screams came.

only,

This time the individual who screamed was the young man it had placed high hopes on.

I don't know where the roots came from, but they came out of the ground.

The shoes that both feet are stepping on are penetrated, as well as the entire sole of the foot.

The roots that penetrated the insteps even sprouted flowers, sucking the blood between the soles of the feet and dyeing them bright red.

now,

The living corpse not far away was pressing its palms to the ground.

Obviously,

It is he who is controlling the plants underground, completing such strange attacks and restraining the target.

Kakakka~

The cervical spine makes a sound when it twists,

The living corpse turned its head and stared at the completely immobilized 'prey'.

He is getting serious~

Changed from the slow walking before,

Using the remaining roots on its back as legs and feet, it attacks quickly like a spider.

Its mouth is completely open,

A large amount of mycelium is revealed inside the mouth,

As if laughing because the prey is about to be captured,

It's like he wants to have a 'deep kiss' with Yi Chen, using his mouth and nasal cavity to connect the mycelium to the brain and squeeze out the target.
