Apocalypse: the Most Ruthless Person

”Shoot, quick, everyone shoot together!”

Now that we have confirmed some of the abilities of the black mist, the next step is to try to break through its defense.

Da, da, da...

Upon hearing the command, everyone immediately raised their guns, aiming at the Black Mist Zombie. Due to its slow moving speed, they could aim well; dozens of bullets were fired accurately at the Black Mist Zombie.

Whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz...

The bullets were densely fired, creating strange sounds upon hitting the black mist, which was the sound of vibration generated by the high-speed friction between the bullets and the black mist.

When the number of bullets reached a certain level, everyone could clearly see that the black mist showed slight deformation. Someone turned on a strong flashlight, and the bullet heads floating in the mist reflected the light and were clearly visible!

This scene was not only visible to the combat personnel on the first floor; when the flashlight was turned on, those focusing on the battle from upstairs could also catch sight of it, leaving everyone astonished.

”These zombies have become immortal...”

”No way a god would look like this; this is damn haunt-ish.”

”Get out of here, this damn thing is scarier than a ghost. You’re scared of ghosts, but have they ever hurt you?”

The heated discussion echoed throughout Lego Mall, even attracting the attention of those resting in the clothing shops.

”Hey, Xiaowu, what’s so lively outside? Go listen to what’s happening.”

Zhao Dezhu told Wu Lue to go out and gather information; he dared not leave easily. In just a short moment, two people had turned into zombies.

Without Zhao Dezhu’s instruction, Wu Lue wanted to join the fun himself, but he feared it wasn’t appropriate to wander around. With Zhao Dezhu’s words, he made up his mind, thinking to himself that if Brother Su asked, he would say it was Brother Zhuzi’s idea...

”This... this this.”

At the curtain wall on the first floor of the mall, Liu Yao stood stunned with a distorted expression. He trusted his assault rifle very much, especially after just using it to kill some zombies; now, the situation quickly reversed.

”Brother Su, what should we do?”

Lu Yubo asked with a heavy expression; he was the only one who would openly express his helplessness. Just a moment ago, he thought that as long as he had a gun, no zombie could withstand a bullet; reality quickly taught him a lesson.

”Let it taste something stronger!”

After Zhang Su spoke, he took out the last three detonators from his backpack and ignited them without hesitation.

”Be careful!”

He warned everyone and then aimed carefully before throwing them.

It must be said that even though Zhang Su didn’t have precision talent, his aim was quite decent; he accurately hurled the three bound detonators at the black mist, drawing various exclamations from everyone.

The burning fuses of the three detonators struck the black mist as if hitting a wall, rebounded to the ground, and simultaneously, the bullet heads nestled within the mist fell to the ground, followed by...

Boom...

The three blasts merged into a loud explosion, the shockwave entered the mall through vehicle gaps, striking the combat personnel. After dodging the impact, everyone hurriedly raised their heads to observe the situation. Some smart ones had already hid behind vehicle glass, witnessing the entire explosion.

The explosion was loud, but the outcome was unsatisfactory.

The Black Mist Zombie originally moved to the double yellow line position, pushed back about two or three meters by the blast, its body receiving no damage at all. If there was an effect, it was only that the black mist appeared dented from the explosion’s force.

Like a basketball crashing heavily against a car fender, there’s some damage, but not much.

Under the car lights, everyone looked at each other in silent bewilderment. The three detonators themselves were meant to detonate C4; they weren’t very powerful on their own. If it exploded at one’s feet, a big man couldn’t withstand it, yet this guy only had its ”armor” slightly damaged?

No, even the damaged ”armor” was slowly repairing...

Now, not only the combat personnel were using flashlights to illuminate the Black Mist Zombie. As the light dimmed, the ordinary members upstairs were afraid that the combat personnel’s vision would be obstructed. Seeing it wasn’t affected by their flashlights, they also took out their lighting equipment to help illuminate. The Black Mist Zombie seemed like a superstar walking on stage, with seven or eight beams of light shining on it.

The crowd could clearly see that after the black mist was damaged, some filamentous substances surged within it. Then, the dent quickly started to recover visibly. As it was recovering, the zombie swayed where it stood. After about ten seconds, the dent was mostly repaired, and it started moving toward the crowd again.

”Is this thing immortal? Tanks, missiles, air-to-surface bombardments, damn!”

Wu Baokang carried the gun on his shoulder, shouting angrily.

Wu Daqiang frowned, murmuring, ”This is the first time I’ve seen a zombie not afraid of heavy weapons. How do we kill it?”

”There’s only one reason we can’t break its defense: insufficient power. If...”

Qi Xiaoshuai got stuck in his words, realizing everyone around was basically on his side. He continued, ”If Brother Su is willing to let it taste a grape, it would definitely choke to death!”

”Grape...”

Everyone present knew what grapes were, recalling that kind of explosion where everything within the blast radius turned to nothingness, making their hearts shudder.

”Don’t say that, if we throw a grape here, would we still keep the mall?”

”Are you stupid? Can’t you lure it away and then throw it? Your brain is like a watt?”

”Oh, lure it to the suburbs, we can really try.”

Everyone immediately started discussing, thinking they could use a grape to deal with this inexplicable Mutated Zombie.

”Using a grape for one zombie, aren’t grapes too cheap...”

Zhang Su shook his head; he had no intention of using Ascension Original Liquid. Given that the Black Mist Zombie’s speed is similar to an average person’s walking pace, it wouldn’t be difficult to lure it dozens of kilometers away; then, we could rest easy.

If he had to deal with it, he had another way in mind. Thinking about it, he walked beside a cargo truck and knocked on the cargo box with his gun butt, ”It’s not worthy of a grape; just a small grill!”

”Ah, right right.”

”Yes, how could we forget it so quickly? Damn, it’s so inappropriate.”

”Brother Su, quick, roast it away!”

The power of the Fire-breathing Zombie was witnessed by all; so far, nothing could withstand the flames it spat out. Its illustrious record made people believe in its capabilities.

”No, honey...”

However, just as Zhang Su opened the cargo truck’s door, Zheng Xinyu suddenly stopped him.

”Huh?”

Zhang Su looked at Zheng Xinyu in confusion, waiting for her wise counsel.

”I think a sudden fire attack might not be appropriate... what if this guy is like the Venom Zombie, we’d be... uh oh huh.”

Zheng Xinyu’s smile was comical, but her point was clear.

”Uh...”

When this was said, many present felt deflated, including Zhang Su who had one leg inside the truck.

Previously, when daring to use grapes against the zombie horde, it was because there had been many screenings ensuring that besides a few Petrified Skin Zombies, there were no other Mutated Zombies that might cause accidents.

Flames enhance ordinary zombies; without knowing the specifics of the Black Mist Zombie, using fire would be unwise.

”Right, right, your timing is just right in reminding us...”

Zhang Su felt Zheng Xinyu’s warning was timely. The reason he dared to use detonators before was by referencing the power of bullets; even if it was effective, it wouldn’t cause severe damage. The Fire-breathing Zombie is different; its power is much fiercer and not of the same caliber; stopping it might even be too late.

Especially since the suggestion came from Zheng Xinyu, Zhang Su felt even more strongly that the Fire-breathing Zombie shouldn’t be used.
