ured seal seemed to be a signal, and the relic within the rippling formation seemed to sense the presence of the evil artifact. The formation activated on its own, blocking the fleeing evil artifact.A...Inside the back compartment of the military truck, a young soldier under Eagle Wing's command was tinkering with a machine, checking the distribution of the zombies, and whispering a report:

"Captain, the drones have spotted a horde of zombies. There's no sign of large-scale movement at this time."

"You can check at any time, and if there is a large-scale movement of zombies, notify us immediately. We are starting from the suburbs now to eliminate small groups of zombies first."

Eagle Wing immediately ordered.

W city is vast and sparsely populated, yet even with that, it has a permanent population of one and a half million. Currently, one-fifth of the people have evacuated, while two-thirds are trapped at home. The rest have become zombies. Among them, the probability of an individual possessing superpowers is one in a thousand.

"Roger that, Captain! We could head to the Unity Intersection first. There's a farmer's market there and it seems to have become a zombie horde of over 10,000 people."

The little warrior immediately reported.

Okay, notify the convoy to proceed as planned.

"Yes!"

Wu Lianyi looked, this time because it was focused on strangling zombies, there were five thousand people participating in the operation. And they were equipped with heavy weapons, obviously the main force was hot weapons, and at the end followed an air force truck responsible for picking up people and transporting supplies, everything seemed very well organized.

Two hours later, they successfully entered the suburbs. The appearance of the vehicles and the fresh flesh of the warriors on board immediately attracted the aimless zombies wandering nearby. They began to approach the convoy.

"Ready to fire! Aim better, don't waste your bullets!"

Eagle Wing spoke directly, and everyone else in the other vehicles received the same order.

Wu Lianyi glanced at the small warriors inside the carriage. Their weapons were all equipped with silencers, obviously not wanting to attract all the zombies in the city because of too much noise. The action commander was still very reliable.

Where is the mission objective now

Since she was already here, Wu Lianyi wasn't planning on making a wasted trip.

"The mission objective is fighting another level 1 zombie in a city chase."

The communicator's reply was very timely.

"Now is it winning or losing"

It would be best if she were just killed by another zombie. It would save everyone the trouble.

"The mission objective is at the upwind position. If she wins, she can obtain a Level 1 zombie's core, allowing her to advance to Level 2. This is very unfavorable for the tasker!"

"It's about time! With just one core from a kindred soul, she can level up. Does she have the protagonist's halo!"

Wu Lianyi took a deep breath and asked directly.

She was a bug in this apocalypse from the start. These were all cheap tricks she used to get ahead. If there weren't any taskers, she would have unknowingly replaced the original protagonist. But now that you're here, she's just delusional!

The speaker, using the robotic voice of a mechanical tablet, spoke in flattering terms. Wu Lianyi found it incredibly awkward to listen to. She finally couldn't stand it any longer and directly said:

“Can you switch to a more human-like tone Your way of speaking feels strange, like I’m talking to a rough guy who speaks in a childlike voice.”

Mark the location of the task target and tell the other party my distance to it.

Wu Lianyi commanded without politeness, if even the first mission couldn't be completed, her chances of success were very low.

"Received! The mission objective is ten kilometers away from you, and it is approaching."

This time, the communicator's voice changed to that of a young man, which made Wu Lianyi feel much more comfortable.

The communication gap widened as the convoy encountered a horde of ten thousand zombies.

The sound of gunfire, "rat-a-tat-tat," rang out again, accompanied by the precise throws of small explosives. In an instant, the roads in the suburbs were thrown into chaos.

"Captain, the zombies around are slowly moving towards us because of the commotion."

The little warrior in charge of the inspection immediately reported.

How long will we be besieged

No more than half an hour.

"Evacuate in twenty minutes!"

Eagle Wing notified all vehicles through the radio.

The first to make a move among the ability users were those with ranged attacks. Jinxi's ability condensed golden needles that pierced straight for the zombies' foreheads.

Another wood-type esper held a seed and, with a flick of their wrist, scattered it onto the zombies. It quickly took root and sprouted, instantly entangling five zombies. Afterward, they retreated from the attack position to begin recovering their abilities. This is the disadvantage of having a lower ability level.

The earth bender directly congealed earthen spikes, attacking the zombies from the ground, nailing their feet to the floor and preventing them from moving. The zombies that came after were trampled into a pulp.

Fire wielders would hurl fireballs directly at the densest areas of the zombie hordes. After a human transforms into a zombie, all the water within their body evaporates, making them highly flammable. Each fireball, before extinguishing, could take out hundreds of zombies.

Wu Lianyi continued to cooperate with Sun Wang, and the two had already communicated their combat strategy before they set off.

"Sun Wang, let's go!"

"Alright! Ripple sister, where to first"

Sun Wang was also feeling a bit pumped up at this point. Everyone had shown their skills, how could they fall behind!

"Head to the intersection in the northwest corner. That's where the zombies are pouring through, let's hold them off there."

Wu Lianyi determined the location of her first stop only after communicating with Xia Zhan, the soldier who monitors the overall situation.

"Got it!"

Sun Wang grasped Wu Lianyi's hand and instantly vanished inside the chariot, truly making those recovering their abilities envious for a moment.

The moment the two figures appeared, Wu Lianyi poured her lightning-attribute energy into her sword and swung it out. A bolt of purple light flashed, cutting through the zombies like harvesting wheat. At least within a ten-meter radius around the two of them, the area became empty.

Sun Wang was aware of his own limitations, so after appearing, he relied on Wu Lianyi and began firing indiscriminately with his gun.

Ten minutes later, the two had cleared a space when suddenly a black shadow flashed, and a claw shot towards Wu Lianyi's face.

"Hmph, I was just about to go find you. You came right to me."

Originally, the mission target was a female zombie, dressed in a fashionable black mini skirt and black suspenders. She had a noticeable bite mark on her shoulder, indicating the cause of her transformation.

Wu Lianyi directly raised her sword and thrust forward. The opponent dodged with a side step, their movement faster than an ordinary zombie, even slightly quicker than an average human.

He was promoted.

"Yes."

After receiving the communicator's reply, Wu Lianyi directly condensed a chicken-egg sized thunder ball in her hand and said to Sun Wang who had stopped firing:

"Take me to the roof of that seven-story building."

"Got it!"

Sun Wang's face was serious. That zombie was too special, he had noticed it too, so he grabbed Wu Lianyi's hand and instantly left their original location.

The female zombie sensed the alluring scent vanish, let out an enraged roar, and the remaining zombies immediately went into a frenzy, rampaging everywhere. Eaglewing, observing the whole scene unfold, frowned and picked up his walkie-talkie:

"Attention all squads, the zombie horde in the suburbs has started to riot, suspected to be controlled by a high-level zombie. Everyone, temporarily avoid the Dandelion Intersection! Snipers, quickly locate and eliminate the high-level zombie!"

As the two commands were sent out, Wu Lianyi and Sun Wang also appeared on the rooftop."She really couldn't bring herself to say the rest."I know she was also worn down by her grandmother when she was young, but that's precisely why she shouldn't let her own daughter-in-law suffer the s...
