Chapter 1136 - 506: The Inevitable Fantasy Trope—Defeating the Minions, Then Facing the Boss [Monthly Ticket Request]
In the mythology system, the one who assassinated the sun, Lin Li generally refers to as Hou Yi or Kuafu.
Successfully assassinating is called Hou Yi, failing and eating the purple egg is Kuafu.
Unexpectedly, this guy turned out to be neither Hou Yi nor Kuafu, but a flat peach.
Deserter! Trash fish!
Having already adjusted himself to the best posture for exertion, with abilities ready, Lin Li, in combat mode, shook his head with some disdain.
He then looked in the direction where the zombie disappeared, and softly muttered to himself, giving an evaluation: "Seems like a mutant species."
Obviously, the opponent can resist the "Voice of All Things," which naturally means it no longer belongs to the low-intelligence category recognized by ability. There’s no explanation other than a mutant species.
"And it’s a mature mutant species."
Lin Li has encountered mutants at Node 1; his gourd still contains a "Core" he extracted by hand.
However, Shi Dongchen informed him that mutants in Yunguang City, generally after appearing, would "leave." Where they go, Shi Dongchen did not know; they seem to have a destination themselves.
This point is temporarily not important; what is important is that because of this reason, the mutants encountered over there are usually newly mutated.
And also because of the recent mutation, they cannot suppress the desire to slaughter humans. Encountering humans would only make them think about killing, and certainly would not choose to leave directly without doing anything like this zombie just did.
This concludes the mature inference.
For such fast and evasive individuals, Lin Li indeed has no solution for now.
His ability with binding functions probably came from the "Green Vine Solid Array" exchanged in the All-Women World.
One consideration for exchanging this array at the time was for use in daily life afterwards.
But there was no chance to use it just now; the distance was too far. By the time the array took shape, that guy had already run two miles away.
However, Lin Li wasn’t completely idle.
He can clearly "see" now that the mutant species is still moving away from him, just not as quickly as before.
——"Marking."
The range of the "Marking" ability is "a visible target within one hundred meters," which the mutant species met just now.
Since the marking is on a living being, the lasting effect of the marking ability is three hours. Lin Li temporarily doesn’t know the limit of the sensing range because it fluctuates with his strength. The description in the ability only mentioned that the minimum is three thousand meters.
Anyway, Lin Li is currently in this world, somewhat unsure of what to do after the effect of the "Voice of All Things." Following this mutant species seems an interesting direction.
He looked at the three zombies standing beside him.
"Number 4, stand in place all day for me. Number 5, smash your head against the wall until you die. Number 67, drag out the zombies already dead from the Lin Family Army."
After giving the orders, time gradually passed, and the effect of the "Voice of All Things" reached its end.
At the moment the ability disappeared, all the zombies in front, still alive, were stunned for a moment, ceasing what they were doing.
Number 4 began to move; Number 5, who had battered itself half to death, mechanically twisted its distorted rotten head, and Number 67 released its grip on the mud and simply stepped forward over it.
Whether it was the simplest halt or slightly complex self-harm, all commands became invalid, unable to exert any influence on these chaotic walking corpses again.
They reverted to pure apocalyptic creations following instinct, only possessing primal instincts.
It seems that long-term commands issued during the ability period are nullified after the ability disappears.
With active zombies in front, sensing Lin Li, the former sun, rushed at him as usual.
Having found a new purpose, Lin Li, no longer intending to raise powder zombies, dealt with the still-active zombies on the scene cleanly and efficiently.
Under the Demon Breath aura, zombies attacked would still resist, but for Lin Li, an additional chance to strike first was enough to easily and securely clear out these basic zombies flawlessly.
Having dealt with the matters at hand, Lin Li casually ascended a building.
Although the mutant species’ speed has slowed, it was still much faster than the average zombie wandering speed.
Following on foot wouldn’t work; it would take forever to catch up, so Lin Li directly manifested his vehicle—Mecha.
Upon soaring to a certain height, Lin Li piloted the Mecha to begin steady navigation.
Maintaining a speed of thirty to forty kilometers per hour, aiming to track the target moving on the ground ruins without disturbing ground zombies.
Indeed, the entire city was an endless wasteland, with no formed shelters, at least none on the surface.
The tracking continued for several minutes.
As they delved deeper, the scene below became increasingly perilous.
The density of zombies inside the remains of streets, squares, and buildings increased at a visible rate, like rotting tides, much denser than any area Lin Li had seen in Yunguang City, even several times denser than the field where Lin Family Army trained.
If the vision wasn’t expanded, on the Mecha’s map, the red dots marked as hostile creatures nearly merged into one.
Did I hit the zombie lair?
