Chapter 1 This Isn't Over, Is It?

"Go to hell! Is this never going to end?"

Seeing that the giant Tyrant, whose upper body consisted of little more than a few ribs and vertebrae besides the metal armor, even with its right arm blown off, and in such a miserable state that it barely resembled a zombie, could still stand up, Gray Bear couldn't help but swear.

I admit zombies are resilient, but this is too much, isn't it? You can live without a hand, you can live without a head, you can live without an arm, and now you can still stand even without internal organs, with your upper body like a skeleton? Do we have to mince you into dumpling filling to finally kill you?

Seeing the giant Tyrant stand up again, Li Chenzhou also frowned. He then glanced at the other battlefield where the horde of zombies wasn't disturbing their fight with the giant Tyrant, but was instead surrounding and attacking the survivors they had brought.

Although those survivors had retreated into the building to resist the zombie horde, and he couldn't see the battle, Li Chenzhou had already heard many screams, indicating that they were already suffering casualties.

If they didn't deal with this big guy quickly, the ninety-odd people they had brought would probably be wiped out.

Although Mike and the others had become Level 3 ability users, and some were even Awakened, the problem was that they only had the level, and lacked combat experience, so they couldn't fully utilize their strength.

As Level 3 ability users, Li Chenzhou could move freely through a horde of tens of thousands of enhanced zombies, while Gray Bear had to rely on the terrain to defend himself. That was the difference in combat ability.

Mike and the others had been hiding from zombies, and hadn't experienced much combat. Secondly, they had only recently become Level 3 ability users. Although they had some time to familiarize themselves with their powers, it was too short to compare with Li Chenzhou and Gray Bear.

Therefore, Li Chenzhou had to find a way to quickly eliminate this seemingly unkillable giant Tyrant. If they suffered too many losses here, or even if Mike and the others were wiped out, his plan to go home might be ruined.

These people were the first to follow them, used the evolution serum in front of the other survivors, and were brought out by them. If they all died here, Li Chenzhou wouldn't be able to recruit anyone else.

No matter how good the evolution serum was, you had to be alive to enjoy it. If I just became an ability user and died going out with you, who would dare to follow you? I'd rather hide in the town like a coward, living one more day at a time.

"Boss! Something's not right with this guy!"

Just as Li Chenzhou was worrying about Mike and the others, and preparing to have Gray Bear go and support them, Gray Bear suddenly pointed at the giant Tyrant and shouted.

Li Chenzhou quickly looked at the giant Tyrant. Sure enough, after standing up, this guy didn't immediately attack, but stared intently at him. This was quite different from the giant Tyrant before.

"He's waiting to recover!"

Li Chenzhou immediately understood the reason. Although the giant Tyrant had stood up again, it had just been severely injured. In particular, Gray Bear's hand cannon had blown away his arm and the spiked club, depriving him of his most powerful attack method.

However, Li Chenzhou soon noticed that the Tyrant's arm and upper body didn't seem to be recovering. He looked at the crystal core in his hand, then at the three or four crystal cores scattered on the ground. A flash of inspiration suddenly struck him, and he lunged towards the giant Tyrant.

"Pfft!"

Reaching the giant Tyrant, Li Chenzhou jumped high and swung his long staff fiercely at the giant Tyrant's head. The giant Tyrant subconsciously tried to dodge, but was a half-beat too slow, and Li Chenzhou's staff caved in his skull.

"Huh?"

Seeing this, Gray Bear was also stunned.

Gray Bear had been watching the battle between Li Chenzhou and the Tyrant for so long.

At that time, although Li Chenzhou already knew that the head wasn't the giant Tyrant's vital point, he still hit his head several times.

Back then, Li Chenzhou's long staff hadn't caused so much damage to the giant Tyrant. Although there was no metal armor on his head, the giant Tyrant's hard skull couldn't be cracked open by Li Chenzhou's staff with just one blow.

"Crystal cores!"

Gray Bear suddenly understood.

Gray Bear's bomb had not only blown out the giant Tyrant's abdominal cavity, but also blasted out several Level 3 mutated crystal cores.

Seeing these mutated crystal cores, the reason why the giant Tyrant hadn't died even after his head was blown apart became clear.

Clearly, this guy had many mutated crystal cores in his body, and the mutated crystal cores were what the zombies relied on to remain unkillable, and were also the source of their power.

The giant Tyrant hadn't died because he still had several mutated crystal cores in his body. This was the secret to his immortality.

And now, he must still have mutated crystal cores in his body, but there should only be one or two left. This number of crystal cores wasn't enough to support his massive body to exert its full strength, so his defense and recovery had suddenly dropped.

"Damn it! You're dead!"

Realizing this, Gray Bear was greatly encouraged. He immediately picked up his hand cannon and rushed up, firing a shot at the giant Tyrant's right ankle.

Gray Bear noticed that the giant Tyrant's metal armor covered not only his torso, but also a small part of the back of his right foot, like half a metal shoe.

There was no armor on his head, and no protection for his elbows and wrists. Why was there such a small piece of metal armor on his right foot? Wasn't that basically screaming, "There's a crystal core here!"

At this time, the giant Tyrant was facing Li Chenzhou's frenzied attacks. Because he had lost most of his crystal cores, the giant Tyrant's defense and recovery had dropped significantly, and even his movements had slowed down a lot. He couldn't block Li Chenzhou's storm of attacks.

Therefore, he had no energy to pay attention to Gray Bear. When the sound of Gray Bear's hand cannon rang out from his lower right, he immediately looked down at Gray Bear, but at this time... it was already too late!

"Boom!!!"

In the loud gunfire, the giant Tyrant's ankle was directly shattered. The metal armor only covered the back half of his foot, including his heel. The ankle was exposed, and with his current defense, he naturally couldn't withstand the powerful hand cannon.

When Gray Bear fired his gun, Li Chenzhou also noticed his movements. Therefore, at the moment he fired, he also kicked the giant Tyrant's forehead, using the force to flip backwards and distance himself from him, so as not to be covered in dust again.

Even Li Chenzhou himself didn't expect that this kick, which was only meant to borrow strength, would cause the giant Tyrant's body to fall straight back again, and crash heavily to the ground, falling on the road stained red with his own internal organs and flesh...
