RLDRFH Chapter 61

Guo Bing and his teammates used their strength from chopping wood and rushed forward, but it only deepened the wound on the zombie’s neck. The zombie stood up and roared, the force throwing everyone around it out!

A shadowy figure took advantage of the zombie raising it’s hands and shot out with another sting! The other eye of the zombie was also punctured!

Basic zombies when they first change have terrible vision, and rely on sound and smell to act. But when they evolve into level one zombies, their vision is restored a bit. At level two, their vision will be restored to the same level as when they were a human, so having damaged eyes will also affect their actions. Not to mention that Fang Hao even pierced the bones behind its eyes! Although the wound was not deep, it still hurt its brain!

He Zizhong, who retreated to the side, took advantage of others fending off the zombies to take out a bottle of space water and drank two sips to replenish his energy. When the circle of people was shaken off, Fang Hao once again attracted the firepower of the zombie in front. Equipping wind on his feet to drive him forward, He Zizhong enhanced his blade with his gold ability as he accelerated, making him highly lethal. After another stab, the zombie’s head was cut again, leaving only a short section of connected tissue! But the zombie was still moving!

The strength ability user of the Samsara squad got up at this moment, picking up an explosion-proof safety axe from somewhere, yelling and rushed up with the axe in both hands, and swung down, finally severing the zombie’s neck.

“Thump…”

As the head of the zombie fell, its huge body also fell on the floor that it had smashed into pieces.

One, two, three… everyone collapsed to the ground one after another. Someone cursed in a low voice, “What the hell was that? Not sleeping at night and instead came to search for food…”

One of the people thrown out by the zombies coughed and vomited two mouthfuls of blood: “Damn, my ribs may be broken.”

The members of the Samsara team hurriedly rushed to treat the wounded. He Zizhong waved his hand to said that he was just a little out of strength and not injured. Fang Hao hurried to his side to help him check his arms and legs.

“The head?” He Zizhong asked in a low voice.

Fang Hao’s face was a little weird, and he blinked at him: “Inside…”

He Zizhong was stunned, and quickly “looked” into the space to see the white dumpling floating in midair with a very familiar appearance. Wearing a refreshing look as it ‘jittered’, its body released layer after layer of light. When did it get the crystal nucleus?! That head was obviously cut off just now, okay?!

Fang Hao held back his smile and put his hand on his chest to help breath smoothly. Guo Bing walked towards the inside and thought that He Zizhong was also injured, so he asked quickly: “Where is he hurt?! Is there anything wrong with the ribs? Let me see.”

“I’m fine.” He Zizhong quickly shook his head and stood up. “Is there any loss of manpower?”

“It’s okay, Xiao Sun’s arm was broken. Mengzi suffered the most severe injury, and broke four ribs. The rest of the people broke a few bones at most, and have some bruises. No one was killed.” Guo Bing thanked He Zizhong seriously: “Thank you very much this time. Without you, I’m afraid we would’ve lost a lot of people this time.”

“Nothing, this was originally our responsibility.” Since they are cooperating, He Zizhong will naturally take on the appropriate responsibilities. The most important reason for the other party’s initiative to seek cooperation was that they fancied his and Fang Hao’s combat effectiveness. He will naturally not be lazy. Not to mention… his own Tuanzi even swallowed the crystal nucleus innocently and unceremoniously?

Although He Zizhong contributed the most to killing the zombie and logically speaking, should gain more, how could he say such words? It was joint effort to slay the zombie with the other party, otherwise they would not have resolved the battle so quickly. Plus Tuanzi swallowed the crystal nucleus without saying a word…It was indeed a bit embarrassing.

He Zizhong suddenly remembered the dream he had before… Was it foreshadowing a certain dumpling’s nature as a foodie? Was it an omen?!

The Samsara team seemed to have some channels within the base, and were aware the upper layers of the base were paying attention to crystal nuclei. Therefore, when they stopped at the school earlier, all the crystal nuclei in the brains of the zombies they killed were picked up and collected.

He Zizhong was a bit worried when he saw two uninjured members of the team get up and head in the direction where the zombie’s head fell off to search for the nucleus. Instead, they cried out in surprise: “Ah? Where’s the zombie’s head?!”

He Zizhong subconsciously “looked” into the space again. The dumpling finished absorbing the energy in the crystal nucleus, and was flying all over the sky in joy, squinting its pair of big eyes with a satisfied expression. It… did it swallow that zombie’s head as well?!

This thought was really horrible. Fortunately, Fang Hao secretly squeezed He Zizhong’s arm in time. Seeing his look of hesitation He Zizhong immediately realized the zombie’s head missing and Fang Hao were related. However, even if Fang Hao directly “stole” the head of the zombie after the zombie was hacked to death, he would not blame him. My wife is looking for food for my son!

Of course, if it was the dumpling that made the first move secretly, he must educate it afterwards!

The head of the zombie was gone. Those in the Samsara squad who could still move used flashlights to sweep the classroom, but failed to find it after a few laps around. Finally, one of them pointed outside at the window. “Did it fall outside?”

It’s possible.

The power in the urban area was cut off since long ago, and the battle was also very chaotic at the end. Even the fierce man who cut off the zombie’s head with his own hands didn’t know where the zombie’s head fell. Not to mention others? The classroom even had a hole in the floor when the zombie smashed down before, and the doors and windows had long been shattered. Who knew where the head landed?

“Go back and rest first.” It wasn’t that Guo Bing didn’t doubt He Zizhong and Fang Hao as they were not members of his team, but they were both far away from the zombie at the end of the battle. They were also not wearing baggy clothes, so it was easy to tell at a glance if something was hidden. Furthermore, even if the disappearance of the zombie’s head was related to them – they contributed the most to killing the zombie, so the crystal nucleus should’ve been given to them anyway.

Finally, Chen Ning scanned the room for a while before returning to the classroom where everyone had rested before. He glanced at the He Zizhong and Fang Hao pair. The two of them did not immediately return to their things, and they had nothing on them except the weapons they had just used. See them dressed, the last vestiges of doubt dispelled as Guo Bing walked over to him: “It’s too dark now. Continue to search tomorrow morning.”

“En, maybe it really fell out. Let’s talk tomorrow.”

In the chaos, the Samsara team was down with five wounded. Those with broken limbs lay down and their teammates helped fix the injured areas so they could recuperate. The night watch was re-arranged and replaced with a few uninjured people guarding all around.

He Zizhong had to sigh. The people in their team are really lucky. Encountered a second-level zombie, but no one died. Even the injured people only had broken arms and legs, and no one was bitten or scratched. He can only say it’s a miracle.

Early the next morning, the Samsara team searched the neighborhood again, but still failed to find the zombie’s head. Not far behind the school is a residential area. Although there are a few blocks from the community and school walls, many zombies could be seen over there. If the zombie’s head did ‘fly’ out when it was cut and fell passed the fence, there really is no way to go to find the crystal core.

“Forget it, let’s go. There are too many zombies outside, they’re all over the street. If you want to dig crystal nuclei, go to the pier to dig!” Guo Bing no longer struggled, and with a wave of his hand, he led the team downstairs and they set off to the pier.

He Zizhong asked in a low voice after they returned to the car: “What happened last night?” He didn’t ask about it all night to avoid suspicion, but in the lower corner of the underground space he saw a bright zombie’s head…

Fang Hao had held back the entire night, as he bitterly pinched the white ball’s ‘flesh’. “Last night, as soon as the zombie’s head was chopped off, I saw it rush over and lay directly on the head of the zombie! I hurried over as soon as I could and sent it into the space with the head of the zombie…”

As a result, the head entered the basement, and the crystal nucleus and Tuanzi floated into the air again. The hateful dumpling swallowed the crystal core directly!

“It rushed over?!” It was too dark last night, and He Zizhong had retreated to the wall to recover his mental power after emptying his mental power twice, so he failed to see the “feat” of comrade Tuanzi.

The dumpling, whose cheek was poked, looked at mama with an innocent expression, wondering why mama was poking it.

“That’s right! But fortunately, it’s invisible.” Fang Hao poked it bitterly. “I saw something rushing in from the door, which is the effect of it being invisible – the air will distort wherever it passes by. After it pounced, I was afraid of it being found out, so I anxiously…”

“It’s okay, don’t blame yourself for this.” He Zizhong comforted Fang Hao by rubbing his hair and flicked Tuanzi’s forehead vigorously twice. “You say – after eating so many crystal nuclei, why don’t you listen to others?”

The dumpling fell aggrievedly into Fang Hao’s arms and rubbed its ‘hurt’ forehead in his arms, begging for comfort.

It’s really troublesome not to be able to communicate smoothly. The two of them took turns speaking to it, and had no way to know if it could understand their words.

After Fang Hao cleared up his mood and wanted to take out some freshly squeezed juice from the space to add vitamins to He Zizhong, he unexpectedly discovered that there seemed to be a difference in the space. “Zizhong, is the space foggy again?”

Since the space evolved to have morning and evening, it has become the same as the outside world. When it is night outside, the sky will be completely dark.

It was too dark last night, and they only saw Tuanzi floating around in the space after eating the crystal nucleus, and found no other abnormalities. But now, it looked like there was a faint mist in the air.

It was the same as before the last space evolution!
