111: Advance to Bronze Four Star

Qin Shi Lei thought for a moment, then had Zhang Qiang descend another hundred meters.

The Blood Soul in his hand was replaced by an exquisite short bow.

Silver Dragon!

Two seconds later, an arrow wrapped in lightning flew rapidly towards the Zombie King on the ground.

A black energy ball suddenly appeared in the Zombie King's right hand, then it waved its hand, throwing the energy ball towards the arrow.

The energy ball accurately hit the arrow, and both were annihilated with a sizzle.

"Roar!"

Under the Zombie King's roar, the Tyrants on the ground picked up fist-sized stones and forcefully threw them at Qin Shi Lei in the sky.

Zhang Qiang flapped his wings hard, easily dodging the stones.

Those stones continued to fly up for nearly a hundred meters before falling weakly.

What astonishing strength those Tyrants possessed.

Seeing that he couldn't do anything to Qin Shi Lei, who was flying high in the sky, the Zombie King turned and walked towards the hole in the grassland.

It looked down for a while, then got up and walked towards the small mountain on the left.

It was then that Qin Shi Lei noticed a cave emitting a soft white light at the foot of that small mountain.

Could this Zombie King have been attracted by that cave?

When did this cave appear?

He clearly remembered that when he first entered the valley, there was no such cave emitting white light.

Could it have just revealed itself, triggered by the Space Rift?

Even from three or four hundred meters away, Qin Shi Lei still felt a faint pull from that cave.

"Could there be some treasure inside the cave?" Qin Shi Lei secretly wondered.

Thinking that the Zombie King might obtain the treasure inside the cave, Qin Shi Lei suddenly became anxious.

Just then, the cave's white light flashed, and the Zombie King, who had just stepped into the cave, seemed to be struck by a huge force, flying backward through the air.

Even though the Zombie King spread its bone wings and flapped them wildly, it couldn't stop its retreat, flying twenty or thirty meters before tumbling and crashing into a millstone-sized stone, finally stopping.

"Haha, so this cave has protective formations or something similar."

Qin Shi Lei looked at the disheveled Zombie King, secretly rejoicing in his heart.

Then the Zombie King summoned its subordinates to charge at the cave.

Without exception, they were all repelled by the white light emitted from the cave.

"You just wait for me."

Seeing that the Zombie King couldn't enter the cave for a while, Qin Shi Lei turned and flew back towards He Shan District.

When Qin Shi Lei returned to Luyang Bridge again, the heavy rain finally stopped.

After the rain, the sky cleared, and the smell of blood and gunpowder in the air had also faded considerably.

"Qin Ge, how did you get injured?"

Zhang Xiaoli looked at the disheveled Qin Shi Lei and immediately rushed forward anxiously.

It was then that she noticed his left hand was still dangling, and upon asking, she learned that his forearm was also fractured.

Revival! Revival! Revival!

Zhang Xiaoli continuously cast three healing skills on Qin Shi Lei.

An Qian also took out a splint and fixed it to Qin Shi Lei's forearm.

Qin Shi Lei tried to move his left hand and felt much better, but he didn't say anything, letting An Qian do as she pleased.

Then he briefly recounted what had happened in the valley.

An Qian's pretty face turned cold, and she said in a deep voice, "Qin Shi Lei, next time, lure the Zombie King out and let it experience what it's like to be ganged up on."

Zhang Xiaoli also spoke, saying, "Let's beat it until its face is a mess."

Qin Shi Lei nodded in agreement.

Not for revenge, but just for the white-glowing cave in the valley, it was very necessary for Qin Shi Lei to lure the Zombie King away.

However, how to lure the opponent away was a problem.

If he lured it away, how could he successfully kill the opponent was another difficult problem.

"You all be careful, I'm going to earn some crystals and level up before coming back." Qin Shi Lei looked at his personal panel and found that he was almost ready to level up again.

Three days ago, he had already leveled up to Bronze Three Star, and now his experience was over three-quarters, so if he worked harder, he might be able to reach Bronze Four Star tomorrow.

There were many Zombie corpses outside Luyang Bridge, but even more living Zombies.

Coupled with the almost continuous artillery fire on the defensive line, there was no chance to dig for crystals.

He could only go to other places to kill Zombies and earn crystals.

Returning to Five Villa, Qin Shi Lei had Mu Ziping find five members of the 007 Corps.

Then they came to the Chi Yuan River behind the villa.

There were two speedboats there that he had already released.

Qin Shi Lei led his five subordinates and drove the speedboats to the opposite bank.

They quickly found a suitable place to disembark and landed in the guard area.

This was a riverside community, and because it was some distance from the large bridges on the Chi Yuan River, there weren't many Zombies inside.

Qin Shi Lei then took out his short bow and quickly began shooting the Zombies inside.

His subordinates were responsible for opening skulls and digging for crystals.

After killing all the Zombies below the community, he took out a large piece of bloody crocodile meat, hung it high on a large tree, and played music on the tree.

With both sound and flesh, Zombies quickly ran out of the buildings in the community again, turning into Qin Shi Lei's crystals once more.

"It's easiest to kill Zombies when following the Commander." A team member said with emotion.

"You're wrong, it's not that killing Zombies is easy, it's that we don't even need to make a move."

"The Commander kills Zombies alone, and the five of us digging for crystals can barely keep up with the Commander's speed, it's truly embarrassing."

"If the apocalypse game had achievement titles, the Commander would definitely have the invincible title of Zombie Terminator above his head."

The other few people echoed in agreement.

After grinding for a few hours in the community and nearby streets, Qin Shi Lei finally earned enough crystals for upgrading, then he led the team and drove the speedboats back to Five Villa.

After those ten people left, Qin Shi Lei held the crystals in both hands and began to absorb them.

When An Qian and the others were replaced by Zhang Qiang and returned, a white light flashed around Qin Shi Lei, and he just happened to level up to Bronze Four Star.

Feeling the surging power in his body, Qin Shi Lei felt that his strength had increased by at least thirty percent.

"Qin Shi Lei, are we going to find trouble with the Zombie King now?" An Qian asked.

"Two of my skills haven't recovered yet, let's talk about it after today." Qin Shi Lei replied.

Then he took out dozens of qingtong treasure chests and opened them with An Qian.

After opening all the treasure chests, there was only one red item, but several relatively practical items were poured out.

Pure Water Maker (Green): Produces one cubic meter of pure water per hour, consuming one level one crystal. (Two units total)

Ice Shield (Green): Forms an ice shield in front of the body, lasting ten minutes. (Two units)

Explosive Fireball (Green): Emits an explosive offensive fireball. (Three units)

Healing Potion (Green): Can heal internal and external injuries. (Three bottles total)

Freezing Ball (Green): Releases an ice ball at the target, which can freeze the opponent. (Four units total)

Substitute Doll (Red): When the holder receives a fatal attack, the substitute doll will bear the attack for the holder, and after taking effect, it will turn into powder and disappear.

Nice!

Although the Substitute Doll had some limitations, it was still an excellent life-saving item.
