Apocalypse: I Can See Health Bars

Chapter 110: Chapter 109: That Man

Although Wang Yuanhua was tasked with bringing up the rear, he hadn’t been much help beyond using his crowbar to pull away a few corpses jamming the wheels.

The zombies in the residential complex almost all charged from the front, only to fall beneath the spears of these four people. Of course, the ones primarily responsible for the kills were the two women at the front.

It wasn’t just the superpowered young girl; the beautiful Su Qing was also formidable. Her attacks were ruthless, fast, and precise.

Although the dumpster moved slowly, its zombie-killing efficiency was exceptionally high. In just twenty minutes, they had already killed thirty to forty zombies.

"Hey, beautiful... Miss Su..."

Wang Yuanhua, trailing behind their contraption, suddenly called out to stop them. His heart pounded nervously as he spoke.

"There are hundreds of zombies gathered at the base of that building up ahead. Are we just going to go over there like this?"

Su Qing gazed into the distance. That was Building 26, where her home was. The sun was a bit glaring, but by squinting, she could vaguely make out a dark figure standing on the rooftop...

Despite fighting for so long, her arms were sore and aching, but she still turned to look at Wang Yuanhua with confidence and said:

"That’s our exact destination. If you’re worried, Mr. Wang, you can wait here. We’ll come get you after we’ve cleared it out..."

Hearing this, Wang Yuanhua felt he was being utterly spineless. A woman leading three people who were clearly in their early twenties dared to go, so why was a big, incredibly strong man like him being so cowardly? He slammed the crowbar in his hand heavily onto the ground.

"Alright! Let’s go!"

With that, he stopped walking at the rear. Wiping his sweaty palms on his clothes, he hefted his crowbar and quickened his pace to the side of the dumpster.

He formed a triangular formation with Su Qing and the others. ’When the fighting gets chaotic, we should be able to watch each other’s backs...’

Seeing the hundreds of zombies milling about in the shadow of the building ahead, it wasn’t just Su Qing and Chu Zhaozhao; even Chu Zhaotian and Xu Qian in the back couldn’t help but swallow nervously.

"Sister Qing... What do we do..."

Chu Zhaozhao asked Su Qing in a hushed voice.

"I... I don’t know... Lin Fan just said to come straight here... Let’s improvise. Be ready to ’retrieve’ at any moment..."

Gazing at the horde before them, Su Qing subconsciously tightened her grip on her spear.

"’Retrieve’? What about him?"

Chu Zhaozhao asked quietly from the side.

"He’s an Awakened One. It won’t be that easy for him to die..."

Su Qing wasn’t confident herself, but she still chose to trust Lin Fan.

Meanwhile, Wang Yuanhua’s attention was focused entirely on the zombies at the base of the building, and he completely failed to notice the dark figure on the roof...

As they drew closer, the zombies near the perimeter naturally heard the creaking of the "moving castle." They turned one by one, shuffling closer before breaking into a charge!

...

Chu Zhaotian had activated the continuous call mode, so Lin Fan heard every word of their conversation.

’This Su Qing...’

Lin Fan couldn’t help but chuckle to himself. ’The guy is ready to cooperate with them, but she’s ready to sell him out at a moment’s notice. She’s got a bit of my style.’

However, as the group came into view, he also saw the "wild Awakened One" they were talking about...

’I can’t make out his face, but I can tell from his health bar that he’s the one who told me not to jump off the building earlier.’

Putting two and two together, he naturally understood what the man had meant.

’So it turns out *I’m* the organization...’

Seeing that the zombies below had been alerted by the group, the outermost ones were already starting to surround them.

Lin Fan twirled the spear in his hand and stretched his limbs. He leaned forward, kicked off the roof’s edge with both feet, and leaped. Brandishing his spear, he plummeted down toward the center of the horde!

BOOM!

Just as everyone in the "moving castle," along with Wang Yuanhua, raised their weapons to face the enemy, there was a sudden, tremendous crash!

Something had landed in the middle of the horde, sending earth and stone flying. Several zombies near the impact point were smashed directly into bloody chunks, their severed limbs flying over everyone’s heads and landing in the distance!

"Holy shit! What was that! A meteorite?"

Wang Yuanhua’s hands, holding his crowbar aloft, were frozen in place. The zombies that had been charging were drawn by the massive sound and all turned to converge on the center!

"It’s Lin Fan! Zhaozhao, let’s keep moving forward!"

"Right!"

Su Qing made an instant judgment. It was Lin Fan, deliberately drawing the zombies’ attention. ’No matter what he’s planning, we have to keep up!’

"Huh? You’re still going forward?"

Wang Yuanhua saw the group in the dumpster start moving forward again, and he was completely baffled. ’I don’t know what fell from the roof, but an impact like that would have killed me instantly. In a moment, the zombies will turn back and have them completely surrounded, won’t they?’

’Dammit... Don’t tell me I’ve teamed up with a bunch of lunatics...’

Wang Yuanhua tightened his grip on the crowbar and slowly backed away, calculating whether he could still make it back to the other building. But then, he saw the zombies that had swarmed the center suddenly begin to "move"!

Not "move"—they flew!

A dozen or so zombies at the very center had surrounded the thing that fell, but in an instant, several of their bodies were sent flying by some immense force. They were launched into the air, crashing down and knocking over a swath of zombies behind them!

"Su Qing! Zhaozhao! I’ll break up the horde! You kill them!"

A man’s voice called out from the center of the horde. Immediately after, a figure burst out, sending several zombies in his path flying!

With a casual swing, his spear sliced two zombies in half at the waist, and they collapsed to the ground!

The man charged out of the zombie horde, turned his head, and saw Wang Yuanhua. He frowned and spoke in an impatient tone:

"Hey, big guy... if you’re just going to stand there in a daze, then stand further back! If you want to help, lead the zombies in circles around that building!"

Wang Yuanhua stared at the man before him, who seemed like a god descended to earth. He had never seen him before, yet there was something strangely familiar about his figure...

’That man... where did he come from? The sky?

Then he must be... their leader?!’

But for some reason, in the face of this man, the strength he had been so proud of recently suddenly seemed so insignificant. He even found himself subconsciously obeying the man’s command.

Wang Yuanhua let out a strange cry, "AHHH—!" attracting thirty or forty zombies, then turned and started running toward the building on the side!

...

Seeing the big, wild Awakened One actually obey his command and start leading a group of zombies on a run, Lin Fan was also taken aback for a moment.

’This guy’s surprisingly earnest...’

’First he told me not to jump, and then he voluntarily came over with Su Qing’s group. Even though I saw him hesitate from the rooftop just now, that’s only natural. Who wouldn’t want to run in this situation? If it were me, I’d be having second thoughts too...’

’But I never expected him to actually be so obedient and lead the zombies away.’

With this, the pressure on Lin Fan lessened considerably. That entrance just now might have looked cool, but only he knew that in just a few short seconds, his mind had switched between the four crystals no less than ten times...

For every charge, he switched to [Strength] then replaced it with [Armor]; for every dodge, he switched to [Swiftness] then replaced it as needed with either [Strength] or [Activation]...

This was the only way Lin Fan could guarantee he wasn’t grabbed by the countless hands in the horde and pinned down.

But once he broke out, things became much easier. He didn’t even need to have a crystal equipped; Lin Fan could handle himself with ease on the outskirts of the horde based on his physical abilities alone.

As for the spear, Lin Fan had already made his decision just before he jumped down.

Embedded in its socket was the [Impact Crystal] he had just obtained.

And that earlier strike, like a comet hitting the moon, was the result of the combined effect of the [Strength] crystal and the spear’s [Impact Crystal]!
