Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system-Chapter 59 Intelligent Zombie
David drove the car and returned with the two of them downstairs. They looked out of the car window and noticed that there were already over a dozen zombie corpses lying silently on the ground downstairs.
[Quest: Apocalypse Reserves! ]
[The apocalypse is imminent. Please collect as many usable resources as possible for the contingency storage space! During this quest, all resources you store will receive a critical hit bonus of 100,000 times. Time remaining for the quest: 0 days, 3 hours, 0 minutes.]
The system's voice suddenly rang out. The group got out of the car, and David stored the car away. He then proceeded to dig out the crystals from the foreheads of the dozen or so corpses using a knife.
One sound after another, the crystals dropped to the ground. David kept digging while Arnold picked up the crystals behind him. The young man held the girl and silently watched behind the two of them and the dog.
"David, there are a total of twelve." Arnold spoke and handed the collected crystals to David.
David nodded and accepted the crystals. While digging the crystals, he could still smell the burnt scent lingering on the zombie corpses. These scents didn't seem like they were caused by flames, but rather as if they were charred by lightning.
These dozen or so zombie corpses were probably the work of Sally. With a thought, David made the twelve crystals in his hand disappear.
[You obtained 12 primary crystals, 100,000 critical hit bonus in effect! ]
[Congratulations, you obtained 1.2 million primary crystals! ]
After putting away the items, David slowly walked up the stairs. Just as he stepped onto the stairs, he heard low growls coming from upstairs. The walls of the entire stairwell were covered in zombie blood and decaying flesh.
When did Sally's abilities become so terrifying? Soon, as he reached the top of the stairs, he instantly knew his guess was wrong. As soon as the group reached upstairs, their bodies froze in place.
In front of them, a massively built zombie held a small-sized zombie in its hand and tore it apart. It held the zombie without hesitation, tearing off chunks of rotting flesh. After tearing them off, it examined them carefully. Only when it saw that the flesh was good did it eat it. Watching this scene, David's heart trembled.
This zombie was conscious! Just as he was thinking this, the zombie swallowed the flesh and slowly turned its gaze toward David and the others. When it met David's gaze, it didn't behave like a regular zombie, charging towards them upon seeing humans.
Instead, this zombie smiled at David! Its mouth awkwardly curved upward, revealing its yellowish-white teeth.
David shivered and quickly summoned his armor, holding a alloy battle blade in his hand, remaining vigilant.
Why would intelligent zombies appear at this time? Today was only the third day since the disaster broke out, and only ordinary-level zombies should be appearing.
It wasn't just the zombie in front of them; even the corpse in Warehouse No.1 earlier. Where did it go now? Soon, David dismissed his thoughts and focused on the zombie in front of him.
This zombie hadn't appeared for long. They had encountered only ordinary-level zombies on their way back. If they were lucky, this zombie was a mutated one. In the next second, David's left hand moved, and several spatial blades appeared around his left hand.
The young man on the side looked at the spatial blade next to David's hand, slightly startled. He was also an esper like himself? David pointed his hand towards the zombie, and several spatial blades swiftly pierced out at an incredible speed. The zombie looked at the spatial blades, while David observed its dodging movements, his eyes instantly lit up. When the zombie dodged the spatial blades, its lower body moved first, while its upper body seemed sluggish, delayed by a second.
As a result, two spatial blades pierced through the zombie's upper body. "Ah!" The zombie held its wounds in pain, emitting a scream that sounded strangely human. 𝐛𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦
Inside the room, since David left with Arnold and Little Black, Sophie had been staying with Sally. Even if there were any movements outside the door, they didn't go out. The zombie's wail happened to reach Sophie and Sally's ears.
Sophie was startled and instinctively grabbed Sally's arm, afraid. "Sally, is there someone outside?"
Sophie treated Sally like her own dear friend, just like an older sister. Sally understood Sophie's kindness and naturally treated Sophie well.
Sally gently patted Sophie's hand and comforted her. "Sophie, don't worry. We're waiting for David and the others to come back in the room. The zombies won't come in." Sally appeared calm on the surface, but she was actually very alert.
Outside the door, David and Arnold had already engaged in a fight with the zombie. Little Black watched the two fighting the zombie and didn't know whether to breathe fire or not. It paced back and forth, looking anxious.
The zombie's movements became faster and the coordination between its upper and lower body improved over time. This was a bad situation for David. While attacking the zombie, he also paid attention to its injuries.
The zombie appeared covered in wounds, but its one vital spot was well protected. Arnold gritted his teeth and rushed forward, tightly embracing the zombie.
"David!" Arnold shouted, and David, wielding an alloy war blade in his hand, decisively swung it towards the zombie's neck! The zombie instantly panicked. It never expected Arnold to recklessly hold onto it. At the moment it saw David's alloy war blade coming down, it didn't struggle but chose to bite Arnold.
No good! David thought. He quickly conjured a spatial blade with his left hand. It was too late! There was no time to throw the spatial blade now. He didn't expect the zombie to go for Arnold. Even if he distorted space, he couldn't make it in time. Just as the zombie was about to bite Arnold, the figure of the young man suddenly appeared behind the zombie. He swiftly raised his hand and with a swift motion, the zombie's head dropped to the ground with a thud.
David halted his action, and Arnold quickly let go of the zombie, wiping off the filth on his body with disgust. "David." Arnold wiped while walking over.
David looked at him with a deep gaze, then turned to the young man and asked, "What's your name?"
The young man glanced at the girl leaning against the wall not far away and calmly replied, "Brian." Brian finished speaking and walked towards the direction of the girl.
By this time, the girl had already awakened. Her lips were pale, and she looked extremely exhausted. But she made an effort to speak. "My name is Lily."
