Chapter 125: Chapter 125: The Chosen One
Only after a few “clack clack” sounds from within, did the door burst open with a crisp “snap.”
“Be careful behind the door!”
Mao Qiqi had warned everyone while Su Jin was picking the lock. She could feel a zombie inside being drawn to the sound of the door opening.
As expected, the moment the door opened, a rather plump female zombie rushed out. Su Jin almost got dazzled by the gold necklace around her neck, but Liao Yifan was quick to kick the obese zombie back into the room!
“Haha, I think I just kicked her back in again,” Liao Yifan said, somewhat embarrassed. From her position, she could only kick the zombie back.
“No worries, Fanfan, I’ll take care of her,” Guo Yang said as he pulled out a watermelon knife from his storage bag and decapitated the crawling woman zombie’s head.
“There are five more inside,” Mao Qiqi said with a grin, holding up five fingers to remind everyone.
Su Jin used her vine-based ability to throw the zombie corpse blocking the door outside, and then everyone followed her into the house.
“There’s one over there, two upstairs, and two more, below?” Mao Qiqi said.
Zombies underground?
It turned out that each villa here had a basement, and the stairs to the basement were connected to those leading upstairs.
Lu Hao nodded and headed in the direction Mao Qiqi had indicated. It appeared that the villa’s courtyard was on the inside, while the zombie was outside, unable to enter through the sliding doors between the courtyard and the main hall.
“It’s a mutated zombie.”
Su Jin felt speechless, as it happened to be a Wood Element mutated zombie, whose only desperate attempt at using a Special Ability involved sprouting a tiny bud on its head…
“Pfft, so cute,” frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Liao Yifan couldn’t help but laugh. It seemed the zombie had been a young boy in life, still clad in his high school uniform. The little sprout on his head made her think it was adorably cute.
Wood Element really had it rough, even among the zombie hierarchy. No wonder those who had awakened Wood Element abilities in the previous life were so disappointing.
To preserve the sliding door as much as possible, Su Jin cracked it open just enough to pierce the head of the Wood Element zombie outside with her vine-based ability, even pulling out a green Crystal Core in the process.
Huang Yunxiang came forward, washed the Crystal Core clean with her Water Element Ability at the nearby basin.
A sense of closeness washed over her, and Su Jin placed the Crystal Core into her storage bag then followed the group upstairs.
The two zombies on the second floor were apparent casualties of zombification within the bedroom, both elderly. Xue Wanyi and Nie Qing took care of them with Wind Blades.
The basement had surprisingly been converted into a card room. Lu Hao and Lu Guanhai lit up the entire basement with Special Ability Fire, and next to the card room was another room where Qiqi said the two zombies were located.
The door opened easily, and the two zombies waiting at the doorway charged out, only to be pushed back in by two incoming Fireballs!
“Roar roar,”
The zombie hit by Lu Guanhai hadn’t completely died. It took another slash from him before it stopped moving for good.
Su Jin moved the bodies of the zombies outside with her vines, while Lu Hao unleashed his Special Ability Fire, turning them into ashes.
