it weren't for the fact that he had thought of knotting the belt earlier to alleviate the burden"Boom!"
Lin An ran with all his might, desperately trying to evade the cars thrown by the lickers from afar.
He tried to take a detour, but was forced to retreat instead.
The nearest straight road has lickers, it's impossible to avoid them!
Car after car, the Lickers hurled them at us like mad projectiles.
We must find a way to lure it into a narrow area and kill it!
Lin An racked his brains and turned around to run towards the less crowded residential area behind him.
On the sixth floor of the mansion.
Below the burglar bars, the already weakened merchant heard the sound of rumbling.
I hadn't had time to figure out what was making the noise when I caught sight of Lin An returning.
It's the one who ran away!
He was beaming with delight.
Apparently, no one can resist the temptation of such a huge sum of money!
The wealthy merchant let out a scream with all his remaining strength, as if he had been given a shot of adrenaline.
"I'm still here!"
"Save me quickly!"
"Ten million! Cars, women - whatever you want, I'll give it to you!"
Lin An paid no attention and immediately pulled out a fire axe from his ring, which he had prepared in advance.
The red fire axe is over half a person tall and makes a loud whistling sound as it is casually swung around.
"Beep, Fire Axe (Basic)"
"Fire axe: a general-quality weapon that is prone to becoming dull quickly."
Lin An didn't pay attention to the hint.
After the Apocalypse Game has begun, picking up any item will give you a prompt message.
But both guns and cannons only have brief descriptions, with no attribute bonuses.
Only the equipment in the Apocalypse Game comes with attributes and special abilities.
The wealthy businessman below the burglar-proof window looked at Lin An with his back turned, as if still waiting for something.
For a moment, he turned pale and cursed himself inwardly.
If it hadn't been for the fact that he thought of tying the belt in a knot just now to relieve the burden on his hands, he would have lost his strength and fallen down.
"Thirty million! Don't be too greedy. If I die, you'll get nothing!" "
The zombie woman inside the window has a distorted face.
The delicate and petite cheeks have now been squeezed into a narrow, elongated shape.
There is only a fist's distance between the two.
"One hundred million! I'll give you one hundred million! Please come and save me, damn it!"
The wealthy merchant wept bitterly.
As the zombie girl frantically struggled, half of her body had already been forcefully pushed into his hand.
After the skin had rotted away, the slippery, meaty texture sent him into a mental breakdown.
In front of the security booth.
Lin An held the axe with one hand and drank the stimulant from his space ring, raising his head.
"Pow!"
The test tube fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
"Beep! +1 Strength, +1 Constitution, +1 Agility."
"Beep, explosive power increased by 50%, endurance, resistance to strikes increased by 30%, hand speed increased by 20%."
It was extremely effective.
Lin An's heartbeat sped up instantly as the molecular structure of the drug broke through the blood-brain barrier.
The heart beats like a war drum.
His muscles were tense all over, and the axe in his hand felt lighter by two degrees.
No wonder it was highly sought-after in its previous life.
As one of the few non-apocalyptic items that provide attribute bonuses.
It is rare in the end times.
In her previous life, Lin An, as an ordinary person, was able to keep Tang Wan and her family alive with the help of the medicine.
If it were not for the fact that he happened to bring a few bottles with him when he went into hiding.
Not only did they fail to survive with three people, but they were killed by zombies on the day they left the city.
Feeling the powerful energy within her body, Lin An was filled with a sense of overwhelming determination.
"Boom!"
The vehicles parked haphazardly at the entrance of the residential area suddenly soared high into the air, revealing its huge body.
The Licker is here!
The wealthy merchant who had been screaming and cursing like a chicken whose neck had been clamped suddenly fell silent.
It's now!
Go ahead without hesitation.
Lin An took a deep breath and bent her legs, and the ground cracked instantly.
Keep your body perfectly still and rotate!
He raised his axe high above his head, leaped four or five meters into the air like a shell, and the blade was tinted with a bloody red glow in the setting sun.
"Unleash the power within you!" "
The ability from the Awakened Talent is activated.
"+2 Strength, +2 Agility, +2 Constitution, +2 Willpower!"
A faint golden glow suddenly enveloped Lin An's body, and his original 12 points of strength suddenly increased to 14 points.
An explosion of power fills my body.
Give me death!
Charge downward kick!
The sharp axe blade, powered by great force, cut viciously into the lickspittle's head.
Blood and flesh exploded, and a large piece of meat over half a person's height was split off entirely, revealing the dark purple muscle tissue within.
"Roar!"
The Licker roared in pain.
Its massive body was split by a single axe blow, and the exposed skull was instantly sliced off in one piece.
The outbreak under the control of the Forestry Bureau.
With a strike that far surpassed the power of a Level 0 Awakener, it nearly killed the Licker on the spot!
"Bang!"
The giant claw crushed down, causing the car body to burst into pieces.
The Licker barely managed to support itself with its massive claws, flattening a nearby car in an instant.
What a shame.
I couldn't finish them off in one shot.
Without being disturbed by useless emotions.
Lin An's first attack was unsuccessful, so he quickly rolled over to dodge the angry swing of the licker.
He carefully circled around the lickspittle's body, moving at high speed, in search of the next opportunity.
The Licker, as a nightmare in various safe zones, of course, has been studied.
After countless painful lessons, people discovered that the Lickers were fast, but their turning ability was poor.
Its two huge claws gave it terrifying destructive power, but also affected its flexibility when turning.
Lin An was well aware of this and moved around to hide in the blind spots of the lickers' vision.
This monster is not something that a single person can confront.
Even awakened individuals require at least 1st level to be able to hold their own against it.
...
The wealthy merchant hanging outside the window stared in shock at the scene before him.
The terrifying monster with its skin peeled off is enough to drive anyone with a weak mind insane.
The Licker is now enraged, slashing its sharp claws wildly in all directions.
The metal body of the car was as flimsy as paper in the face of these sharp claws, offering no resistance.
It's truly terrifying.
But what truly shocked him was that Lin An was able to engage in a fierce battle with such a monster.
At this point, the person who was just a skilled fighter in Lin An's mind had become synonymous with a monster in his heart.
Is this really the power that humans can possess?
"Boom!"
"Boom!" "
The vehicle was flipped over and thrown out, like a missile.
Lin An skillfully dodged the car thrown by the Licker and then made a sharp turn.
It has been attacking for over a minute.
The entrance to the community was cleared, and the few cars that were there were hit by it as if it were a missile.
Just as Lin An took the potion, all his efforts to resist the 14 points of agility were in vain.
No matter how high the damage, it's useless if it doesn't hit the target.
This certainly makes it more ferocious.
"Roar!"
The Licker crouches and roars.
The injury where half of the skull was removed was starting to become apparent.
Forced to bend down, the brain tissue wrapped in blood and flesh was exposed to Lin An.
It's now!
Lin An took a deep breath and no longer saved his energy.
Step out, and dodge the ferocious anger of the Licker's relentless strikes.
"Power Surge"
The power is recharged, and the muscles explode.
It exploded like a bomb.
Reverse Backflip!
Lin An's speed reached its peak, and he took a few steps onto the massive body of the Licker, leaping high into the air.
The muscles in my waist are tensing, and a forceful sensation is traveling from my waist to my muscles. I swing my fire axe powerfully with a full circle motion.
Hit it!
The situation is like a huge mountain pressing down.
The axe blade, emitting a deafening sound, accurately struck the brain that lacked the protection of a skull.
The axe handle snapped, the connection was torn apart under the force.
After it's thrown in, it's like stirring an egg.
Lin An's eyes were cold and determined. He grabbed the axe handle with both hands and plunged it deep into the ghoul's brain, stirring it rapidly.
"Beep! Killed Level 1 mutated zombie: Licker."
"Get 1 Energy Point"
"Acquired: Armor Crafting Materials: Muscle Tissue*1 (White)"
"Muscle tissue: a robust variant of muscle that can produce white armor and comes with an additional +1 agility attribute."
"Evaluation: Muscle tissue from the calf area, suitable for making footwear."
"Acquired: Crafting Materials for Equipment: Lickspittle Spine*1 (White)"
"Licker Spine: Bones as hard as alloys that can be used to manufacture weapons, with an additional +1 to sharpness and +1 to strength attribute."
"Assessment: Practical equipment manufacturing material, can also be used as a weapon before processing."
"Bang!"
As the Licker's massive body slowly fell to the ground, a flash of white light suddenly flew out from the body and entered Lin An's body.
"Energy detected, opening experience panel"
"Current Awakened Level: 0 Tier (1/2)"
"Current player level: 0 level (1/2)"
"Number of kills required for next rank: 1"
Confirming that the licker was dead, Lin An bent over slightly and panted.
It was quite a struggle to kill the licker.
In the post-apocalyptic game, only killing mutated zombies or monsters can earn experience points.
Common zombies are killed without any benefit, as you cannot gain any experience from them.
Therefore, both players and awakened beings.
To level up, you will have to find a way to kill the mutants.
But mutated zombies are usually very powerful and cannot be opposed by 0-stage awakeners.
Therefore, in previous lifetimes, many awakened individuals were even stuck at Level 0 until their deaths.
Without his advance preparation of potions and his incredibly powerful gift, it would not have been possible.
Faced with such a monster, attacking head-on would only lead to death.
There was no time to take a break.
Before leaving, Lin An glanced over her shoulder.
The wealthy businessman who had been hanging outside the burglar bars had fallen to the ground.
Blood was flowing profusely from her body onto the ground.
I don't know if he had his fingers bitten off by the female corpse or if he let go on his own.
Behind the iron bars, the skull of the female corpse had been crushed into an unnatural shape, yet it continued to mechanically open and close its jaws.
He has no intention of delving into the minutiae.
After confirming that no one was alive near the entrance of the residential area, Lin An extended his right hand.
A flash of white light and the huge lurker's body was absorbed into the space ring.
As mutated zombies, the bodies of lickers are full of valuable resources.
Not only the leaked materials, but also the bodies can be processed into unidentified equipment, which is comparable to a bulletproof vest.
But the situation is urgent right now, so it will have to wait for later.
...
In Huayuan Community, residential buildings.
A young girl is huddled in a corner of the room, clutching her knees and crying with tear-stained cheeks.
"Hey, bro...Lin is coming soon."
An Xia held tightly to her mobile phone and timidly spoke to the young man sitting on the chair.
On my phone, the last message came from Lin An.
"Roar!"
On the chair, a man with his hands and feet tied was groaning softly.
The chair beneath me was rocking violently, trying to break free from its restraints.
The iron chain clanged and screeched loudly.
"Brother...I'm so scared."
Ann Xia lowered her head.
I couldn't bear to see An Jingtian's face after the skin and flesh had peeled off, leaving him looking like a skeleton with exposed bones.
After her parents passed away, the only person she could rely on, her brother, had changed into his current state, but there was nothing she could do about it.
This made her feel desperate, and her body trembled involuntarily, like an helpless animal.
The clock on the wall is ticking.
She would occasionally turn her head to look at the locked door, her eyes filled with pleading.
There was only the sound of zombies scratching at the iron door outside.
The expected footsteps never came.
"Brother, you must hang in there."
"Lin Ange will definitely find a way to save you."
An Jingtian's bloodthirsty eyes struggled with a glimmer of reason.
"Lin... Ann!"
Reason fades away in an instant.
The voice was hoarse, but it was still possible to make out the name that An Jingtian spoke.
An Xia suddenly looked up and looked at An Jingtian with surprise.
This was the first time that An Jingtian spoke complete words after the apocalypse.
"Bang! Bang!" "
The zombies outside seemed to sense the presence of their companions and began frantically banging against the door.
The iron gate trembled violently and deformed.
They are responding.
After An Jingtian's sanity disappeared, he struggled wildly again.
The iron chain swayed, revealing the grim white bones at the tightly bound wrist.
The handcuffs, which had been tightly locked, had loosened somewhat.
