Da Fei also became anxious and fired another shot at the hulking zombie, hoping to draw its attention away. However, Ji Zan was even quicker. With a swift movement, he maneuvered himself to the side of the zombie. Stepping on the bags of food, he jumped up and delivered a powerful punch to the zombie’s temple.
There was a dull sound, and the hulking zombie staggered for a moment. But since the bullets didn’t harm it, a punch from a human wouldn’t do much either. In fact, it only fueled its rage, and it roared at Ji Zan.
Fu Shinan realized that her current mental control system could only control humans at the same level or weaker, or small low-level zombies. However, she thought that if the enhancement system could be upgraded, perhaps she could control this zombie too! Seeing Ji Zan locked in a struggle with the hulking zombie, she joined Da Fei in continuously shooting, buying Ji Zan more time.
The enraged hulking zombie turned around and focused its attention on the defenseless MO Cheng. Perhaps it was still dazed from the punch, as its intelligence was not particularly high.
MO Cheng froze, unable to move as he stared at the mountain-like creature.
“Use your abilities!” Fu Shinan shouted, afraid that MO Cheng would be twisted like a pretzel if he didn’t act quickly.
MO Cheng snapped out of his daze but, due to extreme fear, only managed to produce small arcs of electricity, no bigger than the palm of his hand. It was useless against even small zombies, let alone this giant. It was like tickling it.
Sun Han also reached out, but all he could produce was a tiny flame the size of a lighter. He cursed, “Damn it, why is it malfunctioning now of all times?”
The middle-aged woman, witnessing their desperate struggle, couldn’t help but say, “Stop struggling. It’s useless. Liu Xuezhou said this zombie can suppress abilities. Your powers are useless against him!”
Da Fei fired another shot to draw the attention of the Zombie King back to them.
Xia Dong couldn’t help but curse, “This thing is harder than iron. It won’t even crack its skull. And now we can’t use our abilities. Isn’t this a death sentence?”
Ji Zan, however, didn’t want to give up so easily. He shouted, “Da Fei and I will continue to hold off the zombie. You find a way to open the lock! I refuse to believe that we will die here!”
Xia Dong immediately picked up the gun and continued smashing it against the lock. Sparks flew, but the lock remained undamaged.
Fu Shinan turned her attention back to the middle-aged woman and said, “Do you know any other information? If you want to survive, tell us everything!”
The middle-aged woman cowered in the corner, trembling as she said, “I have no abilities, no combat power, and I’m old. They didn’t value me at all. This is all I know. Liu Xuezhou chose the three of us knowing we were doomed from the start!”
Fu Shinan couldn’t help but curse, “That bastard! They were the first to discover this place. Didn’t they study the weaknesses of that creature?”
The middle-aged woman smiled bitterly, “If there was a way, do you think they would go through all this trouble to lure you in?” Then, she remembered something else. “By the way, your base was blown up by his orders!”
A coldness flashed in Fu Shinan’s eyes. That bastard! Her gaze turned back to the hulking zombie, but she unintentionally thought of the hunting rifle. She had been using the system to enhance the defense of buildings but had never thought about enhancing weapons! With this in mind, she immediately used the enhancement on the hunting rifle.
To her surprise, it succeeded on the first try. The system notified her that the speed, penetration, and lethality were all increased by 30 percent!
Fu Shinan’s face lit up with joy. While Ji Zan and Da Fei continued to keep the hulking zombie occupied, she repeatedly enhanced the hunting rifle. Perhaps due to its smaller size, even without Ji Zan, she only failed twice. In the end, she managed to enhance the performance of all her hunting rifles to 90 percent!
At that moment, Ji Zan jumped into the air again, relying on the force of inertia, and landed a punch on the hulking zombie’s head.
Unexpectedly, the hulking zombie’s head cracked, and its eyes became vacant.
This time, Fu Shinan’s expression resembled that of the hulking zombie! Ji Zan was too terrifying. How did he manage to repeatedly strike the zombie’s head, causing it to crack?
However, Fu Shinan didn’t have time to dwell on it. She raised her gun and quickly pulled the trigger, shooting the hulking zombie in the gap left by Ji Zan. The gunshot echoed, and this time, the hulking zombie’s head completely exploded..
