“Thank you, Elder Liu.” Zhang Hua receiving the praise very happily. When the local survivors were within the hospital, they had limited resources like grassroots, tree barks, and unpleasant smelling, medicine-treated zombie meat. So to have canned meat from the supermarket was a very attractive offer.

“I heard the Carapace Variant Zombie died?” asked the players and local survivors from afar as they greeted the three people with gratitude.

“Right now was not the time to celebrate. This half of the bridge will collapse any time, even though the Carapace Variant Zombie is dead. The exploded spread of black substances are still very dangerous and active. We must push a car over to cover that area, then cop across on the car tops off of this bridge. If you want to celebrate then wait until we are off this bridge.” Liu Gan told them. Then, Liu Gan picked up his backpack as he started to lead the rest of the group over to the end of the bridge.

The Carapace Variant Zombie imploded. It was definitely possible that before the bamboo spear had closed, Zhang ShengLi was able to pull off the grenade ring from afar. Then, the grenade had exploded from within the enclosed shell. This had maximized the power of the explosion. That explained why the site of explosion was covered in liquid black substance. The air around it also smelled terribly.

“Seems like this carapace is very sturdy. Even though the explosion killed it, it wasn’t able to destroy the shell, being able to withstand the corrosive nature of the black substance. If it were to be used as a shield, it’s defensive property must be really good.” A player said as he examined the dead Carapace Variant Zombie.

“I agree that it is good, but whoever gets close to it will die.” replied another player.

Liu Gan stared at the carapace, also having similar thoughts. However, the extremely corrosive, black substances on it were the major problem. Now that the carapace was covered with the black substance, even an accidental touch would be detrimental. It burns even through gloves and into the bones.

Unless there was a hose with large amount of water to wash it off cleanly, then you could reconsider taking it along.

At the same time, the suspension cables from behind them started producing more terrifying sounds of wire snapping. The bridge shook as if it was about to collapse. Liu Gan vanquished his thoughts of obtaining the carapace. He immediately took action and told the others to start pushing a large van over the explosion site and immediately bypass the site.

The rest of the scattered regular zombies no longer posed a threat to the players. The problem was that the bridge exit had a large gathering of zombies, a number surpassing a hundred. These zombies might have wandered to this point due to the loud sound.

After seeing the players rush off the bridge, nearly a hundred zombies at the bridge exit started rushing at them. They completely blocking off the exit, making it risky for the players to fight.

“Let these zombies charge at me.” Zhang ShengLi told the players. Then, he wielded the fire axe and charged forward.

“Are you crazy?” Lee Miao seeing that Zhang ShengLi acedt so courageous against a hundred oncoming zombies, she got so frightened.

Zhang ShengLi wasn’t looking to die. It was because he had awakened his other ability after reaching level 5. It was [Tornado Slash]. However, he had never tried it out so he didn’t know what the ability did. As a veteran game player, he could judge that it was an offensive type of ability based on the name.

Right now, as more zombies were piling up, it was the perfect moment to use [Tornado Slash]. He was emotionally excited, so he told everyone to step back while he charged forward.
