The machete itself has high damage, and there was added damage from the skill as well as the extra attack from the whetstone. One slash could easily kill a zombie. The success rate of the ‘dismemberment effect’ was much higher than Fang Heng had expected, with almost two-thirds of the probability being triggered. In addition, Fang Heng had a perceptive ability that was as high as 15 points and this was twice as high as an ordinary player. It was enough to predict the enemy’s movements. Fang Heng felt like he was playing a lawn mowing game. Although it was exhilarating, the continuous use of the machete also increased the consumption rate of the vitality points. Fang Heng tried to adapt to the attack of the machete and slowed down the pace of his attacks. Hao Zhou led the team across two street corners quickly as more and more zombies were gathering toward them. The team was still moving at a high speed, but the pressure on them was increasing and their speed was starting to slow down. “Be careful!!” Hao Zhou suddenly realized that there was a fast-approaching shadow on the right side of his line of sight. Fang Heng also sensed an early warning. He turned his head to look. A mutated zombie suddenly rushed out from the shop on the right side, directly pouncing towards Kun Ta. “Shoo!!” Kun Ta threw a punch. The mutated zombie nimbly moved to the side to avoid the punch. “It’s an agile mutated zombie!” “Bang…” The mutated zombie stomped heavily on the ground and jumped towards Sister Li, who was in the middle of the team. It was extremely fast. While it was still in the air, it had already raised its sharp claws high. Fang Heng’s agility attribute was now as high as 9.8, so he could catch the movements of the mutated zombie. Just as he was about to switch to a shotgun to shoot the mutated zombie, Fang Heng suddenly sensed something and turned his head to look at Hao Zhou. The veins on Hao Zhou’s neck bulged as he shouted. “Bind!” Hao Zhou covered his forehead with one hand and pointed at the mutated zombie with the other, his face showing extreme pain. It was a mental shock! It was Hao Zhou’s special skill! The mutated zombie in the air instantly stiffened, and it fell from the sky in the same posture as it was about to attack a second ago. “Leave it to me!” Fang Heng shouted and quickly put the shotgun back into his backpack. He strode forward and swung his machete. The machete slashed forward. “Chi!” A slash. The mutated zombie’s head flew up. [Hint: Your attack has a ‘dismemberment’ effect.] [Hint: You have killed the mutated zombie-agility enhancement. You have gained 23 survival points.] Fang Heng raised his hand and absorbed a complete evolution crystal left behind by the mutated zombie into his palm. Hehe! He successfully stole from the zombie! Fang Heng noticed that the others were looking at him, so he put away his machete and said expressionlessly, “It’s just so-so.” He killed a mutated zombie in one swift move. This move shocked Fang Heng’s teammates. Most of the ordinary players would run as far as they could when they encountered a mutated zombie. Now, this mutated zombie had been killed by Fang Heng in just one move… It was a disgrace to the mutated zombies… However, when they thought of the special attributes of the machete, they acknowledged its power. He was lucky to trigger the ‘dismemberment’ effect to create such a terrifying effect from the instant kill. The appearance of the mutated zombies made the team more careful. However, as they gradually entered the town, more and more zombies surrounded them. The team seemed to have gradually fallen into a stalemate, and their speed became slower and slower. Amidst the chaotic battle, Kun Ta kicked the attacking zombie on the right. According to his plan, this kick would be able to repel the zombie, and then he would use his punch to blow its heads off! However, Kun Ta didn’t expect that this kick of his felt like a kick on an iron plate. The zombie didn’t retreat. Instead, it violently rebounded and its body started swaying backwards involuntarily. That was bad! It’s a mutated zombie! It was a mutated zombie that enhanced power direction! Kun Ta broke out in cold sweat and quickly adjusted his body’s balance. He did a quick mental calculation on how to deal with the situation in front of him. He was going to suffer! Seeing the mutated zombie’s claw coming at him, Kun Ta was suddenly pulled to the side by a hand. “Let me do it!” Fang Heng keenly sensed the mutated zombie mixed in with the ordinary zombies. He pulled Kun Ta away and directly switched to the shotgun. “Boom!!” A gunshot was heard. The mutated zombie was hit by the shotgun at close range. Its body swayed and it took a few steps back. After the hit, the zombie had a double negative status of stiffness and bleeding. “Wow, it’s quite hard…” Fang Heng raised the shotgun with one hand, completely ignoring the powerful recoil of the shotgun. He took another step forward. He pulled the trigger. “Boom!” The mutated zombie was blown away and exploded into bloody pieces. [Hint: You used the shotgun to kill the mutated zombie-strength enhancement. You have gained gun mastery experience points +30. You have gained 29 survival points.] The gunshots attracted everyone’s attention. Everyone subconsciously turned to look at the big killer weapon in Fang Heng’s hand. Shotgun? It really was a shotgun!! Envious! Envious! He actually had a shotgun, a luxury item that only appeared in the middle and later stages of the game? After all this time, he was actually a rich player! Now they knew that Fang Heng was being modest when he said that his equipment was not bad! How long had it been since the game started? Was it possible to find a second shotgun from a survivor? No way. “Quick! Don’t just stand there!” Hao Zhou shouted to get everyone’s attention. The gunshots attracted more zombies nearby. For a moment, the team realized that they were surrounded by zombies. Seeing that the road ahead was almost blocked by zombies, Hao Zhou shouted, “Sister Li, open the barrier!” Buzz.. A pale white barrier appeared and covered the players. In an instant, the zombies outside the white barrier quietened down. They were not able to sense Fang Heng and the others, so they had no way to attack and quietly stayed where they were. They quickly cleaned up the remaining zombies inside the barrier. Kun Ta came up to thank them. “Thank you, Fang Heng. If it weren’t for you, I would have been in trouble.” “You’re welcome. We’re teammates. It’s our duty.” Hao Zhou quickly identified the location of the Community Hospital, then waved his hand and said, “Let’s go! Over there, follow us!” The perceptive protection barrier was activated as Sister Li moved. They only needed to get rid of the zombies inside the barrier. With the help of Sister Li’s barrier, the team’s speed increased once again. Only a talent like Sister Li was worthy of being an S-rank! Fang Heng was secretly praising her in his heart. He raised his machete and followed the team to continue killing zombies. In less than five minutes, the group arrived in front of the Community Hospital. The windows of the entire community hospital had been nailed shut by wooden planks. Iron gates had been lowered outside the glass doors of the entrance, and several layers of wooden planks had been reinforced. For a time, the crowd actually couldn’t find the entrance to the Community Hospital. Kun Ba and Kun Ta both looked at Hao Zhou at the same time, seeking his opinion. Hao Zhou also didn’t expect that all the doors of the hospital had been sealed shut, and his brows were tightly furrowed. “I’ll do it! Follow me.” Fang Heng saw that Hao Zhou was still hesitating, so he called out to the team and quickly walked to a window on the first floor that had been sealed shut with wooden planks. He raised his shotgun and pulled the trigger. “Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!” He used brute force to break in! With three shots, the wooden planks and glass on the outer layer of the window were shattered, revealing an entrance. God! Tycoon! An ordinary bullet from a shotgun would be sold for 100 survival points in the apocalypse merchant camp. With these three shots, 300 survival points would be gone! Everyone had a clearer evaluation of Fang Heng’s so-called ‘better equipment’, and at the same time, they silently gave him a thumbs up in their hearts. In the apocalypse, it was really lucky to meet a teammate like Fang Heng!
