"There are indeed many zombies!"
Seeing this, Ye Feng was not only unafraid but even quite pleased. He immediately gripped his fire axe and charged into the zombie horde.
Xiao Xiao, on the other hand, condensed a small ball of flame in her hand, but did not attack. Ye Feng had instructed her yesterday to protect herself and not to kill zombies easily...
"Keke ke~ Ho ho~"
"Hiss~ Sla~"
"Bang~~ Crack~ Crack...…"
"Cough cough~ Crack~"
...
Following this, the roars and growls of zombies, the sound of axes chopping, bones breaking, and impacts echoed continuously.
With the continuous rise and fall of the fire axe in Ye Feng's hand, one zombie after another fell to the ground.
"Damn it, what kind of lunatic is this? Instead of running from zombies, he's charging into them to fight?"
"Exactly, who actively provokes zombies?"
"That kid has some skill, but can he handle this sea of corpses?"
"Damn, so many people were following that guy, I thought he was someone amazing and wanted to pick up some benefits. Turns out he's a lunatic!"
...
Not far away, by the large iron gate, a group of explorers who had been following Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao began to discuss animatedly after seeing Ye Feng charge into the zombie horde.
Li Yidao's brows were also tightly furrowed, completely unable to understand Ye Feng's suicidal behavior. His subordinates exchanged glances with each other...
"Hurry, get away from that guy! This idiot messing around like this will attract a Tier 4 zombie. That thing is vastly different from ordinary zombies!"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted.
"Just right, there's a gathering spot left by the Tyrannosaurus Rex base from their previous explorations. It's much safer there. We can explore nearby or spend the night there!"
Another voice followed closely.
"Let's go, let's go!"
"Hurry up, if a Tier 4 zombie comes, we won't be able to leave!"
...
With the first person speaking, soon there was a second. In a short while, most of the explorers who had followed Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao to this place had left, leaving only Li Yidao and his men.
"This..."
After scanning his surroundings and seeing Ye Feng still killing zombies, showing no intention of stopping or escaping, Li Yidao also felt uneasy.
"Mr. Ye, you're making so much noise, you might attract a Tier 4 zombie. Tier 4 zombies are already considered mid-tier zombies and are very dangerous!"
"To the left of the large iron gate, about 3 kilometers away, there's a stronghold established by the Tyrannosaurus Rex base. You might consider going there to take cover!"
Li Yidao shouted towards Ye Feng in the zombie horde, then quickly led his men towards the stronghold.
"Bang~ Crack!"
"Pfft~"
Another zombie's head was blown off by the fire axe in Ye Feng's hand, brain matter and black blood splattering everywhere.
At this moment, Ye Feng not only had the fire axe but also a steel rebar, as thick as a baby's arm, picked up from the ground.
"Tier 4 zombie..."
Upon hearing Li Yidao's words, Ye Feng frowned slightly.
He had heard from Bing in the City of Despair that zombies were divided into 9 tiers in total. Among them, Tier 1-3 were low-tier, Tier 4-6 were mid-tier, and Tier 7-9 were high-tier.
Each tier of zombies had strength-based and agility-based classifications. Starting from Tier 3, zombies began to possess special mutated types that could have special abilities, such as the Deceiver, which could imitate the sounds of living creatures...
With each increase in tier, a zombie's combat power would improve. The gap in combat power between higher tiers became even greater!
From low-tier to mid-tier, and from mid-tier to high-tier, zombies experienced a significant qualitative leap... Starting from Tier 4, each tier was further divided into early, mid, and late stages...
"Roar~!"
As Ye Feng was contemplating, a deep, oppressive roar suddenly came from behind the zombie horde.
Following this, the zombies in front of him began to stir, becoming chaotic and pushing against each other. Some even started to flee...
"What the heck?"
Ye Feng was puzzled and stared seriously at the source of the deep roar.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Ye Feng's expression changed slightly.
Because a figure suddenly leaped from behind the zombie horde, jumped into the middle of the zombies, and charged directly at him.
"Bang~ Bang~ Roar Roar~"
Many zombies along the path were sent flying by the figure. The zombie horde was in another commotion.
Within a few breaths, the figure had reached about 20 meters in front of Ye Feng. Only then did Ye Feng clearly see what the figure was.
It seemed to be a person?
The "person" was wearing tattered clothes covered in various stains, stood about 3 meters tall, with bulging muscles and wrinkled, dark brown skin. Their large eyeballs had only a small black pupil, the rest being white.
Although the figure looked similar to a zombie, Ye Feng was uncertain because the person was carrying a large barbell on their shoulder.
The iron plates at both ends of the barbell seemed quite large, even bending the barbell slightly...
"Roar!~"
The "person" scanned their surroundings, sniffed the air, and finally roared, charging directly at Ye Feng.
"Damn, it's a zombie!"
Hearing this all-too-familiar roar, Ye Feng couldn't help but curse.
The tall zombie carrying the large barbell did not choose a path or avoid obstacles, but headed straight for Ye Feng. In front of it was an abandoned military truck.
"Bang!"
The tall zombie collided squarely with the military truck, emitting a loud noise.
To Ye Feng's surprise, the 7-8 ton military truck was flipped over by the tall zombie. The thick metal door of the truck was caved in where it was hit...
"Such immense strength!"
Ye Feng was quite astonished.
"Roar~! Roar~"
The tall zombie roared twice, extricated itself from the caved-in metal door, then walked over to the barbell it had previously knocked aside, hoisted it back onto its shoulder, and performed a few weightlifting motions.
"What the hell, this zombie even works out?"
Seeing this, Ye Feng frowned slightly.
"Roar! Roar~!"
After performing a few weightlifting motions with the barbell, the tall zombie sniffed the air as if it had detected something. It then threw the barbell to the ground, roared twice, and pounced towards Ye Feng.
"Beep~ System Prompt: Detected Tier 4 Early Stage Zombie, location 10 meters ahead and to the side!"
The tall zombie hadn't run many steps before the system prompt sounded.
"Whoa, is this the Tier 4 zombie Li Yidao mentioned? But it doesn't seem to have any particular emphasis on strength or agility, it's just a normal Tier 4 early stage zombie!"
Upon hearing the system's voice, Ye Feng immediately reacted.
While Ye Feng was thinking, the Tier 4 early stage zombie had already reached him, its large mouth wide open, its upper and lower jaws completely dislocated, revealing long, sharp, and exceptionally white teeth, and it lunged towards Ye Feng's neck!
