Xu Ying was no longer a frail woman, but one who had experienced life and death. She managed to climb down from the anti-theft window, and taking advantage of the absence of zombies nearby, she slowly retreated downward.
Zhu Cheng, who had been leisurely enjoying himself in the car, suddenly rubbed his eyes as if he saw something terrifying. In his field of vision, flickering golden lights were rushing toward them at high speed.
Zhu Cheng suddenly woke up and got out of the car shouting, "Old Zhong, you guys run fast, there’s a Golden Crystal Zombie coming this way, hurry, or it’ll be bad news."
The relaxed Old Zhong and others, upon hearing Zhu Cheng’s shout, were all stunned.
If it had been any other color crystal, they were confident they could rescue the people and perhaps even hunt on the spot.
But now, speaking of golden, doesn’t that mean the approaching zombie is terrifying?
Lin Fan, standing on the rooftop, also heard what Zhu Cheng said. Golden Crystal, that meant something like a mixed-type zombie, only mixed-type zombies moved very quickly; they should have already reached by now, and their roar also had powerful destructive energy. Yet, none of that was happening now, which puzzled him; what on earth could it be?
Lin Fan then looked at the Screaming Zombie, "Did you hear that? A Golden Crystal Zombie, that’s a terrifying kind of zombie. My companions are tough, but they’re no match for that type of zombie."
The Screaming Zombie wanted to howl but couldn’t make a sound.
"Dong Jia, get in the car."
Old Zhong shouted and then ran toward the store, grabbed the wall, quickly reached the rooftop of the store, and then opened his arms, "Girl, jump down, I’ll catch you. We’ve got a terrifying zombie coming."
Without thinking, Xu Ying trusted Old Zhong to catch her, released her hands, and plunged straight down. Old Zhong steadily caught the woman and then quickly ran toward the iron behemoth.
"Old Zhong, hurry." Dong Jia knew Old Zhong would definitely save someone; seeing Old Zhong carrying the survivor, she kept urging him because she had already seen the Golden Crystal Zombie appearing around the corner.
It was not any type of zombie recorded in the Zombie Album.
It was over four meters tall, robust, with asymmetrical arms – one arm resembling a crocodile’s mouth filled with sharp teeth, and the other armed with three sharp, slender claws.
Its head was covered with flesh, like a helmet.
Its blood-red eyes emitted a sinister aura.
The zombie was only slightly taller than the Powerful Zombie, but it felt very wrong, carrying an indescribable oppressive force.
Ye Qian, carrying a sniper rifle aimed at the zombie’s head, pulled the trigger, and a Spirit Bullet erupted from the barrel.
However, to Ye Qian’s disbelief, when the Spirit Bullet hit the zombie’s head, it didn’t cause any damage, not even breaking the skin.
"How is that possible?"
Ye Qian didn’t aim at the zombie’s head this time but at its thigh instead.
The Spirit Bullets hit the zombie’s thigh, with the same result, not even breaking the skin. Faced with this scenario, Ye Qian had only one thought, that with her current ability, she couldn’t harm this kind of zombie.
Old Zhong, carrying the woman, was still tens of meters away from the zombie; given the situation, they should definitely be able to escape.
But just at that moment,
the zombie opened its mouth, and its tongue could extend outward like a python, flexible yet forceful. In a moment, it had wrapped around Old Zhong’s ankle.
The tongue pulled, and had it been any ordinary person, the bones in the ankle could have been crushed by the zombie, but luckily, Old Zhong was wearing War Armor that protected his legs.
Old Zhong fell to the ground, told Xu Ying to run to the car first, then turned around, and without thinking, pulled out a straight knife from behind him and chopped down fiercely.
He cut off the zombie’s tongue, gained freedom, and quickly got up to run toward the iron behemoth.
"Can this kind of zombie be golden?"
Lin Fan observed, noting that a Golden Crystal Zombie ought to compete with a mature mixed-type zombie.
"Maybe I just haven’t discovered this zombie’s strengths yet."
As he was contemplating, the scenario changed again.
Old Zhong waved his hand.
The zombie, enraged by having its tongue cut off, roared angrily, its severed tongue regrew, and the extendable tongue swept toward Old Zhong and his group again.
At the same time, flesh tentacles spread out from the crocodile’s mouth, like a huge net, attempting to ensnare the iron behemoth.
The tongue extended very fast, wrapped around Old Zhong’s ankle again, and the flesh tentacles from the crocodile’s mouth bound the iron behemoth. Under their shocked gaze, the iron behemoth was even lifted up.
Zhu Cheng, Dong Jia, Xu Ying were all inside the car, unable to get out.
Ye Qian’s expression became extremely grave, never expecting such a situation. A Golden Crystal Zombie, was it really this troublesome?
She continued firing, Spirit Bullets hitting the zombie’s flesh tentacles, blood splattering, and although she could breach its defense, the effect was minimal.
Clearly, the zombie had been enraged by the humans.
