CHAPTER 314: CHAPTER 314: FIGHTING THOUSANDS OF ZOMBIES

They also did know that it could preserve the freshness of things, especially food, which was why Leng Pan didn’t dare to give them hot meals.

She took out the noodles she had prepared and had Lu Zhen heat them before distributing a bowl to everyone.

A hot meal in such cold weather was a welcome gift, even if it was only noodles.

After eating, everyone felt like they had come back to life.

All the fatigue in their bodies was gone and they could now fight more zombies.

Moreover, with the experience of the last few days, their stamina had definitely increased by a lot.

"Should we go and start from the edges fighting our way in? I think it would be better and we can avoid being surrounded." Leng Pan suggested when she thought of how many the zombies outside were.

"Mmm...that should do. We can also retreat if we are overwhelmed." Lu Zhen agreed and those who heard their conversation also felt that it made sense.

"Okay then, we will leave through the window and return the way we came to the building we climbed from.

The number of zombies there should still be less than here." Leng Pan wasn’t someone who would waste time once she decided something.

So, she led everyone to climb through the same window they came through and went back to the roof.

Following the same route and method, the group of over ten people made their way back to the ground.

They found that more zombies had been attracted to that place but the snow on the ground had also increased by almost two feet in only three days.

"It seems that we won’t be going out for long after this. Even though we wanted to take advantage of the extreme cold to train, we will have to find another way to do it because soon, it seems even the buildings will be covered by snow." Leng Pan said as she stepped on the ground and her body sank with snow all the way to her hips.

Lu Zhen, who was taller, had his feet buried in snow to his thighs. The others had the same problem.

To make matters worse, they had only landed and sank into the snow and before they could find their bearings, zombies came rushing towards them like flies to rotten meat.

Lu Zhen had no choice but to use his superpower to melt the snow around them into water so that they could stand on solid ground and fight.

The zombies kept attacking them in waves and with each wave eliminated, more would fill the gap without pause.

Moreover, with the energy from the stone disappearing for the whole night, the zombies had lost interest in the building that had the stone in it and were looking for new targets.

Now that they could smell the vitality of living human beings, they went crazy trying to get to them.

As a result, a third of the zombies killed each other while fighting to get to the prey first.

This also gave the team breathing space.

Nevertheless, they didn’t have the time to rest at all and had to keep fighting for several hours before all the zombies were dead.

This time they didn’t stick to close combat, they used their superpowers and those who had gotten pointers from Leng Pan before applied them and found that their superpowers had made an improvement.

Vortex could now trap one zombie in a domain and crash it with his thoughts.

Even though it used a lot of energy, he was sure that if he practiced more, such an action would use negligible energy in the future.

Auntie Li could also use vines to bind zombies and prevent them from moving while swinging a sword to harvest their heads.

After all the zombies were killed, Lu Zhen set them on fire and the team waited aside for everything to burn.

The snow in the whole area had already melted and only mud remained.

However, they had to wait to collect the crystal cores.

It took them some time to collect all the crystal cores from the mud and put them in a large bucket that was found somewhere.

Leng Pan then used water to rinse the crystal cores and divided them into two buckets before filling them with spiritual spring water to purify them and remove impurities.

She then put the buckets into the space bangle.

By now, no one asked why she usually took the crystal cores first. Everyone had noticed the difference between the crystal cores they harvested themselves and used directly and those Leng Pan had soaked.

So, they had tacitly decided not to pry in case she became wary and stopped purifying the crystal cores for them in the future.

"Okay, let’s go home then." Uncle Li said before picking up his sword, which had been thrown to the ground when they were collecting crystal cores and led the way with his wife and sister following behind him.

The others also followed suit with everyone picking up their weapons and heading home.

Lu Zhen and Leng Pan brought the rear as they observed everything around them.

This time their harvest was great even though they hadn’t managed to collect any significant amount of supplies.

Nevertheless, the strength they had gained from their training was something that could only be chanced upon and couldn’t be sought.

If they had followed the normal cultivation and practiced everyone who had awakened a superpower followed, then the strength they had gained in three days would probably need several months or a year to achieve.

Moreover, it is impossible to achieve the tough body they had gained that could even stop a blade.

Because of the intensive fighting and cultivating to restore energy over the last three days, the spiritual energy of everyone had become denser and purer.

The water Leng Pan produced now was like that of an untainted stream. Adding the spiritual spring water she had absorbed before, now it could purify a zombie and turn it into liquid much faster.
