Beware of humans! (Three more explosions seeking red votes and collection!)
After devouring the undead warrior, Zhou Feng began to head towards the city district of Fangcheng Port again. Although there were more zombies in the city, there was also more food and more survivors. His mercenary experience had taught Zhou Feng that a lone wolf could never defeat a pack of wolves. He needed to find suitable partners in this city to reorganize his own mercenary team, because only with stronger teammates and greater strength would he have more say and survival chances on the future battlefield of gods and demons.
The distance from Zhou Feng's dormitory to the city center of Fangchenggang City is not too far, although Zhou Feng has slowed down his speed a lot, he still crossed the forest area between the city and the dormitory in three hours, officially entering the edge of the city.
Along the way, he killed and absorbed three low-level zombies again, gaining a 15% increase in strength and three gene fragments. Now, even with just three times the strength and agility of an ordinary person, he could handle any zombie group with fewer than ten members. However, after seeing the crystal core's enhancement efficiency, Zhou Feng didn't think his own strength and speed were particularly outstanding compared to other survivors. The greatest advantage of the DX-1118 gene virus was not in enhancing the host's strength and speed, but rather in gaining new abilities by absorbing target genes. As long as he absorbed a few more zombies, he could gain new abilities and increase his power exponentially.
The fog in the city is much thinner than that in the forest, and with the help of Detective Eye's vision, Zhou Feng's visible range has increased to 30 meters. However, for a huge and complex city like this, a visible range of 30 meters is not enough to avoid all dangers. Moreover, although the thinning fog increases Zhou Feng's visible range, it also increases the possibility of him being discovered by zombies. Furthermore, the population density in the city far exceeds that of the dormitory area, so acting in the city is much more dangerous than acting in the forest!
"If you were to film a zombie movie in a place like this, it would be absolutely awesome."
Standing on the street, Zhou Feng looked at the distant city area covered by thick fog, fierce flames and smoke, and smiled slightly.
The more dangerous the place, the more he can feel the thrill of life and death intertwined. This is not unique to him alone; all veteran mercenaries who have been through the wars possess this mindset. In medical terms, this mindset is known as "post-battle syndrome", but in the mercenary world, they prefer to call it "the strong man's heart". Only those who possess the "strong man's heart" can truly be considered a strong man in the mercenary world, and Zhou Feng, also known as "Viper's Fang", is one of the most recognized strongest mercenaries.
"Roar!"
Compared to the Misty Forest, Zhou Feng's tactical suit had a greatly reduced stealth effect in the city. Without the cover of the fog, his presence stood out starkly in this city of death. As soon as he entered the main road of the city, three roaming zombies on the street discovered him and charged towards him with a roar.
"It seems there are more zombies here than I imagined..."
Looking at the three zombies rushing towards him, Zhou Feng slightly furrowed his brow. With his abilities, three zombies weren't much of a problem, but these zombies' roars obviously had a resonance effect similar to that of a wolf pack. As they continued to howl, from the distant white fog, faint figures began to slowly emerge, slowly closing in on Zhou Feng's direction.
Just as Zhou Feng slightly furrowed his brow, the three zombies had already rushed to his front. Although their faces were covered in blood, from their tender skin and facial features, it could be seen that they were just children in their early teens, and one of them was even wearing a blue school uniform. However, at this moment, these children's faces no longer had innocent smiles, but instead were filled with a beastly desire. They yearned for flesh and blood, yearning to sink their teeth into human muscle, then swallow the mixture of flesh and blood into their bellies.
And Zhou Feng was their prey.
"Hmm..."
He let out a soft breath, and the * in Zhou Feng's hand instantly transformed into a faint black light that swept across the necks of the two zombies at the front. In an instant, the heads of those two zombies flew up into the air, falling heavily to the ground like deflated balls. Their bodies, however, continued to charge forward under the influence of inertia before crashing down beside Zhou Feng. At this moment, the last zombie, dressed in a pale blue school uniform, rushed over and stretched out its small hands, which were covered in bite marks and even had some areas where the white bones could be seen, towards Zhou Feng's waist. The small figure and embracing motion made it look like a child trying to throw itself into its family member's arms.
However, he was not a child, but a bloodthirsty zombie. He hugged Zhou Feng's waist, only because he wasn't tall enough.
Crack!
As the little zombie rushed to his face, Zhou Feng lightly retreated a step back, avoiding the zombie's hug, then flashed out his hands, grasping the little zombie's head and twisting it lightly. Instantly, accompanied by a crisp cracking sound, the little zombie's spine was completely twisted off by Zhou Feng, and it fell powerlessly to the ground. Afterwards, Zhou Feng also lightly leaped back, rising into the air, disappearing into the fog before other zombies arrived.
————————————————————
"Brother, that person just now was really formidable..."
In a five-story residential building less than twenty meters away from Zhou Feng, who had just killed the zombies, a girl wearing a white sportswear was staring at Zhou Feng's back as he disappeared into the fog, her face filled with astonishment, saying: "Two moves, he used two moves to kill three zombies..."
The girl was fifteen or sixteen years old, with a standard oval face, shiny black eyes, rosy cheeks, and an air of innocence all over her body. At this moment, she kept blinking her beautiful eyes, exclaiming to a burly man standing beside her, who was over two meters tall and had bulging muscles: "Brother, you said who's more powerful between you and him?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, or you'll attract those zombies nearby."
When the girl heard this, the strong man wrapped his right fist with a thick boxing bandage and said helplessly: "That person's knife skills are very powerful, and when he swings his knife, his body also emits a very heavy killing intent. This kind of person is either an assassin or a psychopath, we don't want to provoke him."
As he said this, a sharp glint suddenly flashed in the burly man's eyes, and he gazed at the rear window of the room, saying coldly: "But not provoking you doesn't mean I'm afraid of you, come out, brother!"
"Don't misunderstand me, I'm not a killer, nor am I a psychopath..."
As the sound of Zhuang Han's voice fell, Zhou Feng's figure suddenly appeared at the back window of the room, and he lightly knocked on the window, laughing: "In a situation where zombies are everywhere, shouldn't you open the window when you see me, also human?"
"Sometimes humans are more terrifying than zombies... especially these past few days, I've seen too many!"
Upon hearing Zhou Feng's words, the robust man slowly stood up and gazed at Zhou Feng outside the window, saying in a cold tone: "You're not welcome here, please leave!"
Having seen Zhou Feng's skills, he didn't expect a mere window to stop this powerful man, so at this moment he had already taken on a defensive posture. As soon as Zhou Feng broke in through the window, he would definitely give this man an unforgettable lesson for life.
"Alright, can you tell me how many days it has been since the huge change? And what's the situation like in the city now?"
Seeing that the burly man was clearly unwelcoming, Zhou Feng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Give me an answer, and I'll leave."
It was as if the man could feel Zhou Feng's strength, and at this moment, Zhou Feng could also sense a fierce killing intent from the man. It was clear that if he made any excessive move, he would be met with the man's lightning-fast strike. Although Zhou Feng wasn't afraid of the burly man, he didn't want to engage in an unwarranted fight either. So, as he spoke, he subtly shifted his body backward a bit, indicating that he posed no threat.
"It's been four days since the sudden change, and inside the city... it's already hell..."
Seeing Zhou Feng's movement, the strong man's heart slightly relaxed. However, thinking of what he had seen and heard in the past few days, he still spoke with a guarded expression: "The words have been said, you can leave now."
"It's already been four days? The Dwarf Merchant's stuff is really unreliable..."
Having received the message, Zhou Feng slowly loosened his right hand grasping the windowsill and prepared to jump down. However, at this moment, the strong man's voice also entered his ears again: "It seems that you are from outside the city, I'll give you a suggestion, as a reward for keeping your promise. Be more careful with humans than zombies. Because humans are more cunning, more cruel, and now also stronger..."
"Are you careful with humans?"
Gently fell to the ground, Zhou Feng thought of that strong man's words, then his mouth suddenly curled up, with a hint of playful smile: "I think... it should be because they care about me, right?"
As a mercenary, he was most skilled at dealing with those ruthless ones.
