Anger could indeed cause zombies to reanimate, but Luo Xiaole never imagined it would happen under such circumstances.
They were so close to breaking free, to escaping this purgatory. /
She felt a pang of regret.
"Disperse," Lin Xia commanded.
The zombie that had suddenly reanimated vanished in an instant!
Luo Xiaole was shocked.
What was going on? Could an ability user who turned into a zombie retain their original abilities?
Her guess turned out to be right!
That ability user was, surprisingly, a rare spatial ability user.
However, their powers had been sealed when they were hung up.
The zombie instantly teleported, reappearing beside another weakened ability user and sinking its teeth into their neck!
"Ah…!" The victim's scream echoed through the cave, chilling everyone to the bone.
"Roar!" The guttural roar of a zombie erupted, and the bitten person instantly reanimated as well…
Two highly combat-capable zombies lunged at the people by the cave entrance. The two small squads from the Azure Dragon Gang base were annihilated almost instantly!
Even the two nearby spatial ability users were killed in a flash!
Suddenly, a total of three spatial ability users in the cave had turned into zombies.
The situation spiraled out of control.
Everyone in the cave had become prey, trapped by the zombies.
"Attack!" Luo Xiaole gritted her teeth. If they didn't act now, more and more people would fall victim to the zombies, and everyone would be doomed!
"Hehehe…" Wang Hao, for some reason, suddenly let out a sinister laugh.
Luo Xiaole saw that the fourth spatial ability user, who had been controlled beside him, had broken free of their restraints and was standing perfectly fine next to Wang Hao.
They were already performing a spatial teleportation technique, ready to activate it!
"Didn't expect this, did you? This spatial user has a habit: they don't use their true body when out and about. What you subdued earlier was just a puppet! Hahaha." Wang Hao said triumphantly, tucking the collected energy spheres into his pocket.
He then glared at Luo Xiaole, "Luo Xiaole, you actually made it here. You're lucky, but do you know why the zombies were chasing you earlier?"
"You were cursed with a blood curse! Hahaha."
"Let me open the gates of hell for you once more!" Wang Hao declared, quickly biting his finger and flicking a drop of blood towards Luo Xiaole.
All the zombies in the space simultaneously turned their heads, like malevolent spirits, and fixed their gazes on Luo Xiaole.
Their synchronized movement sent shivers down everyone's spines!
"Enjoy yourselves!"
Wang Hao finished speaking hastily, and the spatial ability user snapped their fingers. Wang Hao and that person vanished from sight!
"This guy… I won't let him get away with this once I'm out!" Luo Xiaole vowed inwardly, grinding her teeth.
She then quickly pulled up the mask around her neck, covering most of her face.
"What are you doing?" Zhou He asked, confused by Luo Xiaole's actions. She scoffed, "Not focusing on what matters!"
Luo Xiaole didn't waste a moment, quickly pulling out her thumbtacks and dagger.
Indeed, in the next second, a grotesque face appeared before her, its foul mouth gaping open, dripping with foul saliva, ready to bite down on Luo Xiaole!
It was one of the spatial ability user zombies from the base, having torn through space to reach her.
"Hiyah!" Luo Xiaole, of course, was no pushover. She gripped her dagger and slashed backward. The zombie's cheek was cleaved in half!
"What?!" Zhou He was stunned. Her wrist had been… by herself…
How could there be such immense strength to cleave that zombie…
She must be tired from not sleeping well last night and hallucinating!
Zhou He rubbed her eyes vigorously.
"What are you doing, so distracted? Why aren't you focusing on what matters?" Luo Xiaole retorted in the same tone.
"You!" Zhou He was furious. What was wrong with these people? They were all the same, ganging up on her!
When she got back, she would definitely complain to her cousin and have him discipline them all!
Except for Mo Shen, of course.
Zhou He was blissfully daydreaming about her future happy life with Mo Shen.
"Clang!" A sharp, hard sound, like something snapping, came from Luo Xiaole's side…
"Gaaah!" Suddenly, another spatial ability user appeared beside Luo Xiaole. The approach was too fast, and this time, the zombie bit down hard on Luo Xiaole's head!
The zombie's teeth… broke?
What?
Zhou He was dumbfounded this time and stumbled back a step.
What kind of training was Luo Xiaole doing… Iron Head technique?
No wonder she was so skinny; all her nutrition must have gone to her head!
Zhou He swallowed, she needed to tell her cousin this too, so he could target it!
"Roar!" Seeing two consecutive zombies get bested, the other zombies became enraged. They roared and surged towards Luo Xiaole like an invading army!
"They're planning to attack all at once, aren't they?" Luo Xiaole was also stunned. It seemed the previous encounters were just appetizers.
"Run! Find another exit, forget Luo Xiaole! That person earlier said that with her around, she'll always attract the zombies!" Zhou He was practically hysterical, her voice cracking with desperation.
"Come behind me." Mo Shen glanced at Luo Xiaole and, without a word, drew his dual blades.
"Xiaole, sister will protect you." Lin Xia's tone was also incredibly gentle towards her.
"Don't worry, Xiaole, we won't abandon you!" Wang Biao and the other two were also fiercely loyal.
"...To... gether..." The other rescued ability users gradually regained consciousness. Although they often fainted, they had faint awareness and memories. Most of them knew what Luo Xiaole had done for them.
If it weren't for this "bean sprout" holding them off here for the past few days, they would likely have had all their abilities and strength drained, their blood drained from their bodies, and have met their demise like the previous ability users…
"We... will protect... you..." A few of them staggered to their feet, painstakingly preparing to activate their abilities.
"You're all insane… you're all insane…!" Zhou He was terrified. Finding another way out now might still lead to survival. Were they going to die here with that little bean sprout?
This trip was worth it.
Luo Xiaole looked at the growing number of people standing up around her, a warmth spreading through her heart.
"Then, please help me with one thing."
"Tell us!" "We'll die a thousand deaths for you!" Several voices replied.
"Thank you, everyone. Now, please stand behind me." Luo Xiaole said calmly.
She covered her wrist; the soreness was clearly abnormal. Zhou He had tampered with her injured limb.
She would remember this.
However, before her wrist broke again, she had to finish this quickly!
The others, though confused, complied. What if this little bean sprout had some special method of gathering abilities?
They were willing to lend their powers.
Once Luo Xiaole confirmed that everyone remaining was behind her, she pulled out a Strawberry Bear costume.
She put it on in an instant.
"Wh... What! Wu..." Wang Biao, standing beside her, recognized the costume!
The weapon master!
