World Refresh: I Knew the Inside Info Ahead of Time
Chapter 57: Sonic Enhancement!
"Mutated zombies can actually cooperate?"
"Where there's intelligence, there's potential for cooperation! The Boss is too powerful, the mutated zombies are afraid, that's reason enough for them to cooperate!"
Xia Xuebing raised her hand, pointing towards the foot of the mountain. "Boss, look at this spot, and that spot over there. The zombie numbers are higher in these two locations, and a small portion of the zombies aren't moving. I suspect the mutated zombies are hiding in these two places! Deal with them, and the Zombie Horde will collapse on its own!"
"Also, look at the very front of the Zombie Horde, mixed in are some strange zombies, stained with red blood. That's fresh blood, which can attract the zombies that aren't under control!"
Soldiers with good eyesight looked over and indeed spotted the blood-stained zombies.
"So that's how it is! These two mutated zombies are too clever, actually using the bloodlust instinct of ordinary zombies to create a small-scale Zombie Horde!"
Li Xuan spoke up at this point, "I'll go deal with the mutated zombies. You all hold the line!"
Afterwards, Li Xuan put down Xia Xuebing. His enormous wings flapped, stirring up a strong wind.
The Giant Beast's body was too massive. Even though the Wing Enhancement had been upgraded once, it still couldn't fly freely, but it could now briefly hover and glide.
The thirty-meter-tall Giant Beast hovered in the air. Its massive body descended towards the ground like a small mountain, its terrifying momentum enough to drive humans to despair.
Ordinary zombies didn't understand fear, but they could still die.
The Giant Beast glided, its shadow projected on the ground, passing over countless zombies, finally landing at the rear of the Zombie Horde.
Boom!
An unknown number of zombies were crushed, their bodies turning directly into red paste, their bones shattered into countless pieces.
The Giant Beast swung its tail. Its speed had increased significantly compared to before, possessing both Strength and speed. It cleared out a large swath of zombies. An ordinary single-story house was caught in the aftermath, its walls cracking and collapsing, before the entire structure crumbled into ruins with a roar.
In the blink of an eye, the Giant Beast charged to the first suspected hiding spot of a mutated zombie. Its sharp claws led the way;
ordinary zombies were like paper, torn apart in an instant.
Bang!
The Giant Beast reached out with its Massive Claw, slamming it onto the house. The roof creaked and cracked, developing countless fissures.
The sharp claws pierced through the roof's concrete. With a sudden forceful pull, the entire roof was ripped off.
The mutated zombie hiding inside the house was revealed, surrounded by over a dozen ordinary zombies.
This was an extremely ugly and bizarre mutated zombie. It was very small, less than a meter tall, with an enormous head, twice the size of an adult's head. Its scalp was covered with bluish-black blood vessels and veins, and its left arm was mutilated.
Screech!
The Big-Head Mutated Zombie let out a sharp shriek. The sound transformed into power, piercing into the Prehistoric Colossus's ears.
Buzz!
Li Xuan felt as if he had been suplexed and landed on his head. His head spun dizzily, his ears rang, and he felt very uncomfortable.
A sound-based enhancement?
In the next instant, the ordinary zombies surrounding the Big-Head Mutated Zombie moved, pouncing en masse towards the Prehistoric Colossus, climbing up its body.
Roar!
The Prehistoric Colossus opened its blood-filled maw and let out a tremendous roar. The Burst supernatural characteristic activated!
Thump-thump-thump~ The Prehistoric Colossus's heartbeat accelerated, its blood flowed faster, muscle restrictions were lifted. Stimulated by an unknown force, its entire body's bones and blood were enhanced.
A bloody, long exhalation shot from its nostrils.
Smack!
Utilizing the physical enhancement from Burst, the Prehistoric Colossus shook off the dizziness. Its claw descended with extreme speed, the sound of it cutting through the air like the howl of a tornado, directly smashing the Big-Head Mutated Zombie to death.
The Giant Beast shook its body, flinging off all the zombies clinging to it.
Then the Prehistoric Colossus dug out the Big-Head Mutated Zombie's Supernatural Characteristic and swallowed it in one gulp.
It had to be said, the Big-Head Mutated Zombie's ability was very unique, extremely effective against large-sized creatures like itself with excellent hearing.
Sonic attacks could, to a certain extent, ignore defense, primarily attacking the eardrums to cause dizziness in the brain. No matter how strong the Giant Beast's scale and hide defense was, it couldn't block the power of sound waves.
Brief dizziness in combat was a huge vulnerability. If both sides were relatively equal, a momentary opening could be enough to decide the outcome.
But the disparity between the two sides was vast!
The Prehistoric Colossus could kill the Big-Head Mutated Zombie with a casual strike, while the other needed to find a way to locate its soft spots, break through its defense, to even have a chance of infecting it!
"Next is the other one!"
The Prehistoric Colossus turned around and sprinted quickly. Its speed flying level wasn't as fast as its running speed. Now that it had obtained the Speed Enhancement, its running speed was greatly increased. At full sprint, it was like a fourth-generation tank with its horsepower maxed out, galloping across the battlefield. The abandoned cars on the road were like building blocks from a toy house, either flattened underfoot or smashed aside directly.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Prehistoric Colossus fought its way to the second suspected hiding spot of a mutated zombie. Using the same tactic as before, it attacked with full force, first destroying the structure.
Boom! The building collapsed!
Before even seeing the mutated zombie, the Prehistoric Colossus first opened its giant maw and let out a roar that shook the heavens and earth.
Previously, its roars were just loud, without offensive power. Now it was different.
The sonic attack Supernatural Characteristic possessed by the Big-Head Mutated Zombie was extremely compatible with the Prehistoric Colossus!
The roar of a Giant Beast was far louder and more terrifying than the roars of other animals!
After being imbued with the sonic attack, the resulting offensive power surpassed that of the Big-Head Mutated Zombie by more than ten times!
Where the roar reached, it was like a gale-force wind had hit. Miscellaneous items inside the house flew about chaotically.
The Prehistoric Colossus leaped up, its wings flapping to increase speed, using its tail as a weapon, slashing down fiercely from the sky.
The house roared, dust and debris flew everywhere. A previously intact house turned into ruins in the blink of an eye.
The Giant Beast probed with its claw, pulling out some zombie fragments. It searched around but didn't find any Supernatural Characteristic.
"What's going on? Is the mutated zombie not here? Or did it run away?"
The Prehistoric Colossus scanned its surroundings, searching for traces of the mutated zombie.
Yun Xiuzhi, observing the battle from the air above the base, noticed a slight clue - a small black dot on the back of the Prehistoric Colossus. "What is that?"
Yun Xiuzhi observed carefully for a moment, then her spirits were greatly shaken, filled with panic.
It was a zombie!
A very small zombie was secretly clinging to the back of the Prehistoric Colossus!
Li Xuan hadn't reacted at all!
Yun Xiuzhi descended, found Huo Lingling, "Quick, change back into a snake! We need to go help Li Xuan!"
"Is he injured?!"
"Not sure, but we must act quickly, otherwise he might get hurt!"
A short while later, Yun Xiuzhi, transformed into a pigeon, flew out clutching a bundle of clothes. Hidden within the clothes were a dagger and a Little White Snake.
After getting close to the Prehistoric Colossus, Yun Xiuzhi shouted, "Don't move! I'll count down from three! When I reach one, immediately turn around and catch Huo Lingling!"
Hearing this, Li Xuan instantly realized something. He stopped moving and stood still calmly.
Yun Xiuzhi flew to the back of the Prehistoric Colossus. Looking at the black dot up close, she finally saw it clearly: it was a mutated zombie infant monkey, very small in size, emaciated, with empty eye sockets devoid of eyeballs, its face horrifying.
It clung tightly to the Prehistoric Colossus's scales, like a sticky monkey grabbing onto another infant monkey.
"Huo Lingling! Get ready!"
Yun Xiuzhi released her grip, and the clothes fell.
"Three!"
Mid-air, Huo Lingling transformed back into a human. She pulled out the pre-prepared dagger from the clothes. Her eyes held a touch of determination within their innocence, but her trembling arms betrayed her nervousness and unease.
"I can do this..."
"I can do this."
"I CAN DO THIS!!"
Huo Lingling shouted these words three times in a row, each shout louder and more resolute than the last.
She wasn't some delicate, simpering girl!
Li Xuan had said she was a warrior!
