71: Chapter 71 The Person Who Triggered the Zombies
Chapter 71: The Person Who Lured the Zombies
The vines tightly wrapped around the pouncing Zombie Dog, and Wang Ting did not hesitate at all, directly taking out the vine skull tyrant blade to sever the neck of the Zombie Dog that had leaped onto the city wall with a single slash.
His gaze immediately locked onto the Sprinter zombie weaving through the horde, and he leaped down from the top of the wall.
Dong Hu and the others' expressions changed drastically; zombies carried viruses, and even if Wang Ting was powerful, if his body were eroded by a large amount of toxins, he would probably find it difficult to withstand.
The moment Wang Ting jumped down, the sand scorpion armor had already appeared on his body.
He landed directly in the middle of the horde, and the surrounding vines coiled like giant pythons, directly binding the zombies surrounding him; under the sweep of immense force, cracking sounds came from the zombies' bodies as their spines were snapped directly by the vines.
The Sprinter in the zombie horde failed to dodge in time and was directly exposed in front of Wang Ting; Wang Ting closed in, thrusting the blade of the vine skull tyrant blade in his hand straight out.
The Sprinter was extremely fast and wanted to increase the distance to pounce and bite Wang Ting's neck, but the next moment it was already pierced through by the vine skull tyrant blade.
The Sprinter was killed by Wang Ting, but the surrounding zombies seemed to have no sensation at all; they only knew that a piece of delicious flesh and blood had fallen into their midst, and all the zombies frantically killed their way toward Wang Ting.
Looking at it at a glance, it was a pitch-black mass, the roaring sounds were like the whispers of demons, and the ferocious faces and the stench of decay in their mouths almost submerged a person.
Wang Ting deeply furrowed his brows; he particularly disliked this smell.
He manipulated the vines to sweep horizontally and gather the zombies together, pulling them off-balance with a single forceful tug. Then Earth Vine Spike suddenly activated, and dark green thorny spikes launched a surprise attack, resembling spears that instantly pierced the bodies of the zombies.
The thorny spikes were dense and swift, and even those Sprinters hidden within the zombie horde found it difficult to escape.
"How is that possible? Isn't that guy afraid of being bitten by zombies?"
On a hillside three to four hundred meters away from the Outpost Camp, Li Bo and Guan Yue both wore looks of horror, watching Wang Ting continually charging and killing within the zombie horde, full of disbelief.
That was a zombie horde they had searched for a long time on the wasteland and gathered using quite a few methods.
They originally thought that an impact from this quantity of zombies could ferret out some of the Outpost Camp's trump cards and consume a large amount of their bullets.
But looking at it now, where was this consuming bullets? It was clearly consuming zombies; how could anyone be so ferocious as to mow down zombies like straw?
The two of them only felt their scalps tingle; seeing the hard earthen walls and those strange vine defensive walls had already made them extremely vigilant.
Amidst their shock, they had already noted down the weirdness of the city wall, preparing to pass this news back.
But they didn't expect the next thing that terrified them even more to appear.
Wang Ting rushed into the zombie horde and went on a random killing spree against those zombies; in just a few breaths, relying solely on himself, he killed over a hundred zombies, and zombie after zombie fell down like dominoes.
This kind of method was not secondary limit-breaking at all; it was clearly an Extraordinary.
"When the hell did Scarecrow Town have an Extraordinary?!"
"Run! Must run!"
Fear arose in the hearts of the two, and the instinct honed from wandering the wasteland for years told them that if they didn't leave now, the ones in danger would probably be the two of them.
"Found you."
Wang Ting suddenly raised his head, his gaze crossing the overlapping zombie horde and landing on the hillside.
This glance was like a top-tier predator locking onto its target; Guan Yue and Li Bo's hearts violently skipped a beat, feeling as if they were suffocating in an instant.
They had been spotted by Wang Ting!
The two of them were so frightened that they abruptly stood up, not daring to linger at all, and ran straight down the hillside.
But Wang Ting was faster than them; countless vines charged like giant pythons, pushing the zombies to the left and right sides, clearing out an unhindered path.
He rushed straight over, his figure resembling a yellow leopard, running like leaping, covering a zhang per step, and his heavy footsteps treading on the gravel kicked up a circle of flying sand.
A distance of 400 meters was almost instantly reached for him.
Wang Ting's pupils were ice-cold, revealing a sharpness like a blade, locking tightly onto the direction of the two.
Since Dong Hu said someone was making trouble, the zombies were extremely likely to have been lured by someone, and the person who lured them would definitely observe the movements of the camp to scout out the location.
He jumped into the zombie horde not only to kill those two newly appeared abnormal monster entities, but even more to startle the snake out of its hole.
He possessed Vibration Perception, able to capture vibrations within five hundred meters, and he wanted to know if there were any special movements behind the zombie horde.
Hard work pays off.
After seeing the scene of Wang Ting slaughtering zombies, Guan Yue and Li Bo felt terror in their hearts and ultimately emitted a trace of imperceptible vibration.
This vibration, different from the footsteps of the zombies, was immediately captured by Wang Ting, who then discovered them.
Wang Ting rushed up the small hill; at this moment, Guan Yue and Li Bo had already climbed onto a dilapidated motorcycle, watching as it was about to start.
Wang Ting rushed down the slope, drawing the rifle from his waist, aiming at the departing backs, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Bang, bang, bangβ
The bullets streaked across mid-air, carrying microscopic air currents, and directly hit the motorcycle, sparking a burst of sparks.
Guan Yue and Li Bo were even more terrified, as if the bullets were passing right by their ears.
"Hurry and go, hurry and go, don't let him catch up."
Li Bo urged Guan Yue to drive, and Guan Yue fiercely twisted the throttle, only to suddenly discover that the motorcycle's tire had been punctured by Wang Ting.
The moment the vehicle darted forward, it lost its balance, the tires sank into the gravel, and then it overturned onto the ground.
Wang Ting sneered, his figure having already rushed down the hillside like a fierce tiger coming down the mountain.
Li Bo and Guan Yue struggled to their feet when suddenly their vision darkened, and a huge green broad-bladed knife planted itself in front of them right against their faces with a "pfft" sound.
Li Bo was startled, madness showing on his face as he abruptly raised his hand, holding a pitch-black pistol with the muzzle aimed at Wang Ting.
Wang Ting grabbed with a large hand, his five fingers resembling iron hoops, grabbing his wrist a step ahead; with a cracking sound, the hand holding the gun was directly snapped by him.
Guan Yue still wanted to attack Wang Ting at this time, but out of the corner of his eye, Wang Ting had long since discovered his action.
With a thought in his mind, two Earth Vine Spikes suddenly emerged from the ground, piercing through the shoulders of the two with a "pfft" sound, the intense pain causing both of them to lose the ability to resist.
The two had their collarbones pierced, blood continuously flowing out, and their faces showed horror.
"Which wasteland bandit gang are you from? Think it over before you answer, I will only give you one chance."
"Th-Three Wolves Gang."
Hearing the name Three Wolves Gang, a trace of killing intent leaked into Wang Ting's eyes.
They came looking for trouble after all; it seemed he had to take the initiative to uproot them completely.
Wang Ting dragged the two towards the zombie horde; when he charged over earlier, some zombies had already chased after them, and now seeing Wang Ting and smelling the bloody scent on Li Bo and the other, they naturally became even more frantic.
Wang Ting came to a place with vines, and with a thought, several vines began to accelerate their growth, transforming into ropes to tightly bind the two.
The ferocious zombies had already rushed to Wang Ting and the others' side, the stench hitting them face-on, and their grotesque faces were even more like bloodthirsty beasts, wanting to tear the three living people into pieces.
Li Bo and Guan Yue fell to the ground, bound by the vines like rice dumplings; from their perspective, looking up at the zombies, the sight of them fighting for food was even more terrifying.
The two were frightened out of their wits, nearly thinking that Wang Ting was going to kill them to establish his authority and had dragged them over specifically to feed the zombies.
Thus, their entire faces turned pale with fright, and their legs trembled incessantly.
The zombies pounced in front of Wang Ting, who manipulated the vines to grab their ankles and continually climb up towards their bodies.
Wang Ting waved the vine skull tyrant blade, slaying them one by one.
Wherever they clustered together, he released Earth Vine Spike, and rows of thorny spikes rose from the ground, resembling spears that instantly pierced through the bodies of the zombies.
Dong Hu saw Wang Ting capturing people from afar and now facing the zombies alone; although it didn't look dangerous, he was genuinely anxious inside, continually pulling the trigger on the city wall while urging, "Hurry up! Hurry up! Clear out all these zombies!"
Seeing Wang Ting being so fierce, the members of the Guard Team couldn't help but burn with fighting spirit.
Their bullets swept continuously, and finally, after five or six minutes, all the zombies near the city wall were killed, leaving only twenty or thirty still surrounding and attacking Wang Ting.
Wang Ting transformed the vine skull tyrant blade into vine blades, fully over three meters long, resembling a chain whip composed of vine blades.
He swung his blade horizontally, repeating it several times; the vines acted like whips, and more than twenty zombies were cut in half at the waist by the sharp blade, their corpses scattered all over the ground.
Dong Hu led the people to open the gate of the Outpost Camp and quickly rushed over to Wang Ting's side.
"Boss, are you alright?"
"I caught two scouts from the Three Wolves Gang, take them down and interrogate them separately. Make me understand clearly where the Three Wolves Gang is, how many people they have, and what they are planning to do. Before dark tonight, I want the answer. If you can't get it out of them, drag them off to feed the zombies."
A fierce glint appeared on Dong Hu's face, and the ball of anger in his heart flared up instantly.
The Outpost Camp was built by them from scratch with their own hands; now that it was being spied on, how could they not be angry?
"Rest assured, Boss, if I can't get anything out of them, I'll bring my head to see you. I have plenty of methods."
