Humans have long realized that zombies can communicate closely with each other even without using language.
It was obvious that this water zombie was communicating with the spiritual zombie behind it.
Seeing this scene, Lin Qingqing quietly slowed down her attack speed.
She carefully observed every move of the zombie, trying to guess the meaning and intention of the mental zombie behind her, and maybe she could also roughly estimate how far the other party's intelligence level had evolved.
Lin Qingqing's expectations were good, but until the water zombie was covered in wounds after being beaten by her, and the surrounding zombies were almost eliminated by Lei Min, the mental zombie behind him still did not make the next move. .
"Captain, are we overestimating it? After all, it is only level five now," Lei Min said hesitantly.
"You play slower, we'll wait."
Lin Qingqing stared at the water zombie closely, and she decided to trust her own judgment.
Upon hearing this, Lei Min also slowed down his attack speed, and even deliberately let off steam from time to time.
Originally, she could kill a level 3 zombie with just one palm of lightning, but she insisted on hitting it with a thunder ball, and she also avoided the zombie's vital points. If you can't kill him with two, use five. If you can't kill him with five more, use ten, just like Ling Chi.
The corpse group was wailing for a while, and it was too miserable to watch.
The water-type zombie obviously had no intention of rescuing its own kind. It only focused on dodging on its own, and even pulled its own kind to use as a backing when necessary.
I don't know if it's because the roars of the surrounding zombies are too annoying. This water zombie is becoming more and more irritable to the naked eye, and its actions are becoming more and more uncontrollable.
Just when Lin Qingqing was guessing what the spiritual zombie behind her was going to do next, a ray of light suddenly flashed past and then collided with her ice chain.
"Captain, it's the light zombie. It actually appeared. It must have been sent by the spiritual zombie!" Lei Min said excitedly.
"It should be here to save this water zombie."
Lin Qingqing's eyes quickly scanned the direction where the light ball flew from just now. The light zombie was still hiding in the distance. Even if it came to save its companions, it was still quite cautious.
"Xiao Ling Ding, Lao Cheng, two bodyguards have appeared. Do you have any clues?"
She had lured out the two highest-level zombies in the entire Wushan City, and then it was the spiritual zombie's turn.
While communicating with her teammates through the headset, Lin Qingqing changed the "Ice Mist Armor" into "Reflective Armor" in seconds. Compared to the water zombies, the light zombie hiding in the dark was obviously more dangerous.
A few seconds later, Wen Ling was the first to give the news.
"No, we didn't find anything. The mental zombie is probably not in our direction."
"What about you, Lao Cheng?"
"No... eh? Wait a minute, Song Qiao seems to have discovered something?" Cheng Xiaohe's intermittent voice came from the headset. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly became quiet.
On the roof of the tallest building in the southeast of Wu'an City, a battle had just ended.
There were two level four zombie corpses lying on the ground, but none of them had time to deal with them at the moment.
Yin Yaxiu, with her hair in loose braids, was repairing the damaged shielding device, while Cheng Xiaohe was squatting aside and re-adjusting the communicator. A long tear was torn in his clothes, revealing the white phosphorus inner armor. .
When Lin Qingqing sent the message just now, they were working together to kill the second zombie. The zombie's counterattack before it died not only destroyed a corner of the shielding device, but also knocked down the communicator.
The two of them were seizing the time to make repairs. Only Song Qiao lay motionless on the sniper point, his eyes always looking in the direction of the city center.
"Tell the captain that I have discovered the spiritual zombie! I am preparing to sniper."
At the moment when Lin Qingqing sent the news, Song Qiao suddenly spotted several suspicious figures.
Although she couldn't tell the specific level and type of zombies in the scope of the sniper rifle, she could see through them.
The corpse's behavioral characteristics can roughly determine the identity of the other party.
At this moment, at her two o'clock direction, there were four high-level zombies standing in the corner of the roof of the Wushan Communications Building.
Three of them stood in a triangular position, firmly blocking the other zombie behind them. This obviously very human behavior is definitely something ordinary zombies would do, and with the three protecting one, the one being protected is very likely to be The spiritual zombie they were looking for.
After discovering the target, Song Qiao kept a close eye on it. The muzzle of the sniper rifle flickered slightly, ready to fire the fatal shot at any time.
As time passed, the three zombies were always surrounding the mental zombie, protecting it tightly.
However, Song Qiao was very patient and remained highly focused from beginning to end without any slack.
"Whoosh——"
Finally, a special mechanical opening and closing sound sounded, and Song Qiao finally fired the shot.
"How about it? Does the captain have any other arrangements? If not, we are ready to withdraw."
Yin Yaxiu said, stood up and clapped her hands, and then habitually pulled out her silver pipe from her lower back.
She said this to Cheng Xiaohe. Song Qiao's gun never missed. As long as it was the target she aimed at, no one could escape her sniper kill.
"Wait a moment, there is no reply from the captain yet," Cheng Xiaohe said with a sigh of relief.
Since the moment they climbed to the top of this building yesterday, the zombie attacks have not stopped.
Although they have arranged many traps and traps in advance, the other party obviously does not intend to let go of their thorn in the side that has penetrated deep into their own territory. First, a large number of low-level zombies besieged them, and then third- and fourth-level high-level zombies came to sneak attack. In short, they did not stop for a moment for a full twenty-four hours.
"Okay, let me take a rest first," Yin Yaxiu lit her pipe and just took a puff. At this time, Song Qiao, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up.
"Wait a minute!"
Song Qiao's eyes were still staring in the direction of the target and said, "I feel something is wrong."
"What's wrong? Didn't you hit it?" Impossible. Yin Yaxiu paused after hearing this and asked with a little doubt.
"We got it, but I suspect that the dead zombie was a fake!"
Song Qiao's words immediately shocked the two of them. How could there be fake zombies?
"What should I say? Did you discover something?" Cheng Xiaohe was the first to react.
"I did hit the target just now, but the three zombies acting as guards next to me did not react at all after the zombie died." Song Qiao said with one eye narrowed.
High-level zombies are territorial. If the mental zombie that controlled them just now dies, then the three zombies should separate quickly, or have a fight on the spot. It would be normal, instead of being like now, without any control. The one who reacted was still circling in circles.
"You mean that zombie is not dead yet?" Yin Yaxiu slowly blew out a smoke ring: "Then what did you kill just now?"
"substitute!"
Song Qiao's words were astonishing.
"What substitute?"
At this time, Lin Qingqing's voice came from Cheng Xiaohe's headset.
"Captain, this is Song Qiao. She just killed a zombie that was a suspected target."
Cheng Xiaohe recounted what had just happened in a few short sentences.
"Are you saying that Song Qiao found a zombie that was obviously protected, but after killing it, he found that it was not the spiritual zombie?"
"Yes, because the three bodyguards protecting the zombie are obviously still under control."
"So you suspect that the one who died was just a stand-in of the spiritual zombies who were specially found to confuse us?" Lin Qingqing's voice was also filled with obvious surprise.
None of them expected that the fifth-level spiritual zombie would come up with a trick to "substitute one's strength and change one's strength." .z.br>
Does it still know that there are snipers on their side? Is this IQ a bit too high?

Suddenly, everyone was completely caught off guard. At this point in the plan, the zombie had obviously sensed the danger and even made preparations in advance. Next, if they want to use this method to lure it out, it is unlikely.
"Little Bell, from now on, you set out immediately to find that spiritual zombie!" At the critical moment, Lin Qingqing made a decisive decision.
Now only Wen Ling can find the location of the zombie, so they must take the initiative and kill the zombie completely before it has time to react.
"No problem, Captain, let's set off now!" After Wen Ling finished speaking, she pointed in a direction, and Qu Xingchi immediately understood.
"Brother Lin, let's go!"
As he spoke, he lightly tapped his left foot with the heel of his right foot. As an inconspicuous light flashed, a pair of pulleys appeared on Qu Xingchi's sole.
This pair of shoes with pulleys was also made by Yin Yaxiu. It is powered by crystal cores and can move quickly on flat ground. With this pair of crystal core-powered shoes, he can run quickly in the city without consuming superpowers.
Because sometimes the speed is too fast, the friction between the wheel and the ground will cause a string of sparks, so Qu Xingchi gave it a tacky but appropriate name - "Invincible Hot Wheels!"
The speed of these shoes is very fast, and the speed of running at full speed is about the same as that of a third-level speed superpower.
But such convenient and fast shoes are not available to everyone. To wear these shoes, a person with special abilities must have super physical coordination and balance ability to walk smoothly in a complex urban environment.
Apart from Qu Xingchi, only Lin Fei in the Qingmang team has the ability to control these shoes, so the two of them, plus Wen Ling, became a team without any surprise.
Compared with Yin Yaxiu's fixed-point sniping on the other side, most of the three Qu Xingchi fought guerrilla warfare, which was suitable for the current scene.
So after receiving Lin Qingqing's order, the two took Wen Ling and started to quickly shuttle through the city on the "Invincible Hot Wheels", looking for the cunning spiritual zombie everywhere.
