50: Battle against giant zombies

It didn't even peel the shells, yet it could chew them into tiny pieces.

The Little Security Guard felt a fleeting illusion that his own teeth were loosening.

It was as if his own teeth had shattered as well.

This guy's teeth are just too sharp, aren't they?

The Giant Zombie charged at the Little Security Guard, grabbing stray zombies along the way.

Pulling a zombie with its left hand, its right hand had already snapped the creature's neck.

Then, as if eating walnuts, it tossed the head into the air and caught it in its mouth.

Crunch, crunch.

The sound of bones shattering continuously echoed from its mouth.

The Little Security Guard stood his ground with arms crossed, waiting for the Giant Zombie to come to him.

He was full of interest in the evolution of zombies.

If he attacked with the Ice Daggers, he wouldn't be able to fully study the Giant Zombie.

He had to have more contact with it to understand the details.

To prepare for dealing with them further in the future.

The Little Security Guard extended his right hand, and a spear materialized in his grasp.

The Giant Zombie ate several "walnuts" along the way, and its body continued to grow larger.

In the blink of an eye, the giant that was originally two or three meters tall had grown to three or four meters.

The Giant Zombie charged right up to him, stopped, and sized up the Little Security Guard.

Green liquid flowed from its mouth, dripping down the corners of its lips like drool.

When the drool hit the ground, the grass and trees made a "sizzle" sound.

The vegetation was instantly scorched, emitting a foul stench.

The Little Security Guard looked at its strange gaze: "Damn, are you looking at my head like it's a delicious walnut?"

"Heh, I'm just afraid my head will shatter your teeth."

The Little Security Guard teased lightheartedly.

It seemed this big guy had a bit of human consciousness.

The Giant Zombie lunged forward.

The ground shook and the mountains swayed along its path.

The Little Security Guard waited until it was right in front of him before raising his long spear and aiming it at the zombie's head.

The Giant Zombie also knew how to dodge; it reached out to grab the long spear, trying to pull it away.

But no matter how much it shook it from side to side, the long spear and the Little Security Guard remained motionless.

The Little Security Guard tested its strength and smiled: "Yo, it looks like your strength is at least ten times that of a normal person."

The Giant Zombie didn't believe it couldn't win the tug-of-war and increased its strength.

The two sides were locked in a tug-of-war posture.

Except one was using all its strength.

While the other didn't seem to be using much effort at all.

The long spear remained completely still.

The Little Security Guard teased: "Oh? You want it? Here, take it!"

Saying that, he let go.

The Giant Zombie hadn't expected this move from the Little Security Guard.

With the sudden release, it couldn't help but stumble back over a dozen meters.

Finally, it collapsed to the ground and slid several more meters.

A long trench was gouged into the ground.

The long spear also happened to plunge into its own chest, piercing through its torso.

The Giant Zombie was furious; it leaped up, pulled out the long spear, and hurled it fiercely at the Little Security Guard.

Just like throwing a javelin in a sports meet.

A smile played on the Little Security Guard's face.

Still standing in place, he praised: "Not bad, not bad. You can throw a javelin and use your brain; that's some progress."

In the Little Security Guard's eyes, the javelin flew from afar, getting closer and closer.

It looked as if it was about to pierce his eye.

The Little Security Guard reached out and flicked the long spear.

The long spear flipped over and flew into the sky.

Then it fell back down, landing perfectly in the Little Security Guard's hand.

The Little Security Guard examined his long spear; there was no blood on it.

"Hmm, now that my Long Spear Divine Skill has entered the second Realm, it truly is 'one strike without blood'!"

"It's completely clean, not a single drop of blood."

Seeing that it missed, the Giant Zombie beat its chest and stamped its feet.

It charged over again.

Its two large hands clawed wildly, intending to tear the Little Security Guard to pieces.

The Little Security Guard still didn't dodge, allowing himself to be grabbed.

The Giant Zombie's eyes were devoid of Life Qi, yet they radiated a brutal Killing Intent.

It had no Life Qi, yet it possessed anger.

It exuded a strange atmosphere.

The zombie bared its teeth and grimaced, a foul stench emanating from its mouth.

The blast of air made the Little Security Guard's hair flutter.

"Damn, how long has it been since you brushed your teeth?"

The Giant Zombie opened its maw, which was filled with hundreds upon thousands of sharp spikes.

Holy crap, no wonder it can crush heads!

Just as the zombie was about to crush the Little Security Guard's head.

It bit into empty air and instead bit off its own hand.

Unable to stop its momentum, it chewed half of its own arm into mush.

The zombie looked around—where did the person go?

He seemed to have vanished into air!

It hurriedly turned around to search.

It saw a person flying through the air.

The long spear cleaved downward.

"I'm done playing with you!"

With a "crack."

The giant's body was split in two, from the top of its head down to its third leg.

The two halves weren't completely dead yet, twitching continuously as if they still had life.

Gradually, the two halves stopped moving; it was dead for good.

It seems zombies will also continue to upgrade.

For now, they were still within the range that his strength could control.

But as for the future, no one could say for sure.

To protect himself and his women, he had to seize the time to improve his strength.

He absolutely could not rest on his laurels.

Just as he was about to leave, he noticed a faint green light coming from the zombie's head.

The Little Security Guard examined it closely and extracted a crystal from the head.

It was an oval about the size of a watch face.

It was translucent green all over.

It seemed as if an electric current flickered within.

Holding it in his hand, a surge of spiritual power flowed into his body.

System notification: "spiritual power injected: 1 point."

It appeared that the Giant Zombie's spiritual power value was ten times that of a normal zombie.

The Little Security Guard was about to leave.

Suddenly, an old man crawled out from a haystack.

He was about seventy years old.

His face was as thin and wrinkled as a walnut.

"Expert, save me!"

The Little Security Guard asked, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

The old man walked over: "Expert, ahead is Xiaohe Village, a place in the suburbs of Changning City that produces a lot of grain. I am the Village Chief here."

"I was passing by just now, saw the zombie, and quickly hid in the haystack."

"Seeing the Expert kill the zombie, I beg you, sir, to escort me and help me get my wife back."

It turned out this person was hiding in the haystack and heard the fight outside.

He peeked through a crack and happened to see the Little Security Guard kill a zombie.

The Little Security Guard said, "Hmm, helping you get your wife back—what's in it for me?"

The Village Chief: "Oh, young man, respecting the elderly is a virtue. Why are you looking for benefits?"

"It's your good fortune that an old man is asking you to do something. Why are you asking for this and that?"

The Little Security Guard didn't want to waste words with him and pointed the spear at his head.

"You damn well want a free ride, don't you?"

The Village Chief saw the spear and was instantly terrified.

This spear had just killed a Giant Zombie.

It seemed he couldn't talk about morality with this young man; he had to talk about interests!

If he continued to be difficult, he'd be losing his life!

Having been a Village Chief for so many years, he understood this much.

The Village Chief hurriedly said, "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare."

"There are benefits, there are benefits."

"I think no matter how strong the Expert's martial arts are, you still have to eat, right?"

"Now that we've entered the Apocalypse, grain is so scarce. The Expert must also be short on grain, right?"

"I'll give a bag of millet. I beg you, sir, to save my wife."

The Little Security Guard didn't care for a bag of millet.

My grain can last me a year or two; do I really need one bag of millet?

But in the Village Chief's granary, there's probably more than just one bag of millet, right?

If he were a kind old man, that would be one thing!

But this is an old man who loves moral kidnapping, lacks respect for his age, is opportunistic, and is slick-tongued. He'd be better off dead and released from this world earlier!

This guy is voluntarily offering grain!

A wicked smile appeared on the Little Security Guard's face...
