About half a minute has passed since the Yang couple returned to the center of the team to help Sister Lin Qian.

The good situation created by the couple's ability matching before is being worn away bit by bit.

Previously, under the pressure of the zombie tide, the entire team passively became closer.

In contrast, the black corpses swarming in and eager to "eat" were more like open sardine cans, densely packed without any gaps.

The black corpses are dull-minded, but they are not afraid of death. They don't know the meaning of retreating and stopping.

More and more "stumbled" black corpses have become "stepping stones" for those who come after them.

The hill of black corpses piled higher and higher, and the little advantage created by the "curling mirror" soon disappeared.

In that kind of scene, people can't help but wonder - even if there is a big river lying in front of them, will they frantically fill in the river to build roads and pounce on it?

This aura unique to the "Undead Legion" is enough to be intimidating, and panic gradually spreads among the team.

But what is surprising is that when Haiping saw the dense group of corpses, he seemed to have thought of something.

At this time, he slowly lowered himself to the back of the team, taking advantage of Lan Xi's sword to cover him, and threw two Type 37 grenades far to the rear - the same grenades he had left for himself when he was fighting for the corpses in the warehouse. stock.

"Be careful of grenades!" Lan Xi shouted in advance.

"Everyone get down!" "Bang!"

The grenade explosion was not as blazing as in the film and television works. The most impressive thing was the air wave formed by the loud noise and the billowing smoke and dust generated by the explosion.

There was a delay of several seconds after being thrown, and then a rumble suddenly appeared, and the area within 20 meters around the landing point was almost cleared.

Most of the black corpses within the explosion range were reduced to pieces of flesh and blood, while a few of the black corpses further away escaped unharmed.

Some black corpses were lucky enough to accidentally use other companions as "bunkers" when the explosion occurred, but were knocked to the ground and were not seriously injured.

But before they could stand up again in a daze, more companions stepped on them one after another, and there was no chance for them to "turn over".

Even with Lan Xi's reminder, a few survivors in the team were hit and almost staggered and fell.

After all, they didn't have a bunker to cover themselves. Even if Haiping had extended the throwing distance as much as possible, they still couldn't avoid the impact damage caused by the air wave.

After the Type 37 grenade explodes, it will produce nearly a thousand fragments of about 0.3g. The smaller the shrapnel, the greater the number. The killing density is greater, but the killing radius is reduced.

Fortunately, these shrapnel were blocked by the dense group of corpses. Otherwise, if this move were also applied to one of our own people, we would definitely injure the enemy eight hundred and lose one thousand to ourselves.

Defensive fragmentation grenades are definitely not offensive grenades like high-explosive grenades.

The high-explosive grenade is like a large two-legged grenade, with a ball of TN T explosive wrapped in a thin broken iron sheet. It has no power at all.

For defensive grenades, less charge has higher lethality, and it does not consider creating opportunities for the attacker to advance.

Its only purpose is to explode and damage the enemy.

In other words, you can't charge immediately after throwing a defensive grenade, because the fragmentation fragments inside the missile don't have eyes at all.

Perhaps the offensive grenade only has a lethal radius of three or four meters, and if it is farther away, it will only cause a loud noise and stun. However, without the protection of fortifications, fragmentation grenades can easily injure one's own people.

This is also the reason why Haiping did not use these two precious grenades to open a path ahead.

The models in the armory are old. If you can find a Type 49 offensive and defensive grenade equipped with a "prefabricated fragmentation sleeve", the maximum killing radius can reach a terrifying twenty meters, and it will definitely be a weapon for cleaning up the corpses.

Of course, if there was such a thing, Haiping would not dare to use it in this situation.

Using grenades as a trump card is not a good idea. Because after the projectile explodes, not only will it produce powerful killing fragments, but it will also be accompanied by a loud noise.

People whose ears were buzzing after being disturbed by the air waves and explosions just wanted to get away from here quickly.

The place where the "noise" originates will attract black corpses from further away.

Correspondingly, if you can pass quickly, leave it behind. Continuous explosions will also mislead subsequent zombie waves so that they do not need to haunt them anymore.

Hai Ping had to admit that he had a lot of "gamble" mentality in this reckless action.

But he had no better choice at the time.

Lan Xi and he were just ordinary evolvers who were good at swords. Without strong evolutionary abilities, they couldn't deal with dozens of black corpses. And rashly engaging the corpses in close combat will ultimately lead to death.



At the same time, at the front of the team, there were only three figures among the corpses.

"Ho ho ho."

In front of Lang Hua, another black corpse fell down weakly.

Lang Hua raised his hand and pulled out the long, pointed tactical spur. A pool of dirty blood came out from the black corpse's eye socket, and it fell to the ground and was covered in dust.

From the wide-edged sword to the long and narrow sword, in just a few minutes, at least twenty black corpses died under his sword.

Lang Hua's combat prowess was undeniable, but surrounded by corpses, every kill would be twice as difficult. The tattered coat hanging on his body is one of the evidences.

A person with both experience, means and evolutionary level would not be trapped by a group of ordinary low-level corpses.

But it's one thing that the zombies can't do anything to Lang Hua. If they want to kill nearly a hundred zombie monsters in turn, it's absolutely wishful thinking.

Most of their previous battles were focused on injuring and delaying, and killing black corpses on the spot was only a rare occasion.

It's not because they have good intentions, it's because they can't do it more than they don't want to do it.

It is always easier to hurt people than to kill, and the same is true for black corpses.

Even Lang Hua put away his Mo Dao soon after the offensive battle began and changed his tactics to Army Thorns. Isn't it because assassination saves more energy than chopping?

In the final analysis, their strength is low, their evolutionary energy is limited, and they cannot withstand unnecessary consumption.

"Crack."

Zhou Jin waved the lightsaber in his hand and instantly cut off the sharp claws of a black corpse. At the same time, another black corpse quietly touched behind him.

"Stab it."

The corpse's claws were sharp, and Zhou Jin's coat was immediately torn open. The skin cracked under the clothes and blood overflowed. The smell of blood made the black corpses around him almost go crazy.

But the black corpse that succeeded was also stabbed through the brain core by the "victim" Zhou Jin who came to his senses with a backhand sword.

The silver-white sword tip penetrated the back of the black corpse's head. Zhou Jin looked at the other party coldly, but did not feel relieved by this.

He flicked his forearm, and the body hanging on the lightsaber flew out.

"Hoo uh."

Not far behind Zhou Jin, the roar of a certain black corpse suddenly stopped. Lang Hua pulled out the spur from its back and pushed the body aside.

The next moment, a black corpse had an arrow in its eye socket and slowly fell down behind Lang Hua.

The crossbow arrow came from the direction of Zhou Jin, and it was Lin Wenjin who was guarding each other back to back. Previously, he used the "Spark" and "Golden Sand" abilities one after another, and his evolutionary energy was almost exhausted, and he was still in a long recovery period.

During this period, he could only provide limited long-range support through two Tiger-type roller crossbows.

As the holder of the bow and arrow skill "Maimang", Lin Wenjin can get great bonuses when using "arrow" weapons, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a master archer.

"Weapon skills" that sprout alone are not only rare, but also more durable. It relies more heavily on outside weapons than most evolutionary abilities. In other words, the consumption of the energy of the bulk crystal nucleus is extremely small.

Lin Wenjin fired the crossbow arrows at a constant speed, and the consumption caused was almost the same as the speed at which he absorbed the black mist energy from the outside world at this stage. This allows Lin Wenjin to continuously participate in the battle.

As an evolutionary ability, Lang Hua's "Edge" is similar to Lin Wenjin's "Maimang". But the speed of consuming crystal core energy is more than ten times that of "Maimang".

Of course, Lang Hua's other abilities consume crystal energy even faster. For example, "rush" is five times that of "Maimang Ten", and "crystal core field" is fifty times...

With Zhou Jin and Lang Hua's evolutionary level, they can completely leave everyone behind and run away.

Usually in the end of the world, in order to save lives, it is normal for companions to refuse to save their lives and become romantically involved.

In an age when everyone is in danger, moral kidnapping no longer has such a powerful deterrent effect. There's nothing people can't do as long as they can survive.

Of course there is only one thing - the traitor must die.

Now, for some reason, Lang Hua and the others trapped themselves in place and killed the corpses. In the eyes of outsiders, they were really asking for trouble.

Rao Shi Lang Hua, as a second-level ability user, has lost more than half of his evolutionary energy.

Fortunately, everything seems to be developing smoothly. As long as they work together to clear out the remaining black corpses in front of them, they can break through the blockade of "Zombie Group No. 1" and escape before the zombies from all directions encircle them.

At this moment, Lang Hua suddenly raised his eyes and looked up.

He seemed to have felt a slight tremor at the origin of evolution just a moment ago, which made him feel a little uneasy.

And at the end of the line of sight, a small group of black corpses appeared again. It looked like there were only a dozen of them.

"Oh? Are they the reserve army of 'Corpse Group No. 1'?" Lin Wenjin laughed and said with disdain, "But how can these old, weak, sick and disabled people with low speed and late arrival stop us?"

Suddenly he stared intently and couldn't speak any more.

Even the bean flame ignited on his index finger was shaking and almost extinguished.

Because behind those dozen black corpses, a new group of corpses appeared immediately. The number of black corpses was only much more than that of "Zombie Group No. 1"!

And those black corpses at the head, where are the old, weak, sick and disabled?

Isn't this obviously the special black corpse that Lang Hua mentioned before?

It seems that there are many first-order strength black corpses P1 and first-order agility black corpses V1. Who knows, there will be second-order black corpses!

"Jesus! What are you going to do?"

Lin Wenjin's face instantly turned ugly - his methods were exhausted, his evolutionary energy was cleared, and his stock of crossbows was low. How could he deal with these guys again? Do you want to use flesh and blood to block it?

"There are residential areas everywhere here. Only in the north-west direction where we are traveling, after passing through three blocks and shops, there is nothing but a citizen activity center." Zhou Jin murmured, his face full of disbelief.

"This is the direction where the black corpses are least likely to attack!"

Lin Wenjin complained bitterly: "God's will plays tricks on people. Is it possible that there will be people holding illegal gatherings in the civic center in the middle of the night?"

"It's useless to talk more," Lang Hua stood beside the two of them and said in a deep voice, "Gather all the people with abilities and guns to the front. We must force a breakthrough!"

Who would have thought that at this moment, the little Heizi in the air suddenly warned: "Brother Lang, the corpses on the left and right are here!"

After lingering here for a long time, the scene that Lang Hua least wanted to see finally came——

A "corpse siege" is about to take shape!

Lin Wenjin looked at Lang Hua, as if waiting for him to come up with a new solution.

But the latter glared at him and said: "Watch what I do! Quick, do what you just said! Otherwise we will all die!"
