Regret youthful ignorance
Chapter 143 Accelerated Time
This statement really scared Chen Luo to death.
If anyone else said it, Chen Luo would scoff, but this was a prophecy personally delivered by the fortune teller, Mi Fan.
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
How could I, the Void Monarch, be finished?
I survived so many dangers and so many abnormal creatures in my past life. How could there be something capable of killing me just over three months into the apocalypse?
Even against a King-level, I'd have a chance to escape, okay?
But Mi Fan had issued a death sentence.
Chen Luo couldn't even bother with Zhao Hai. He had to quickly and carefully ask Mi Fan how to resolve this.
For others, Mi Fan could only sense events that would happen in about ten minutes, but with Chen Luo, she could sense events within half an hour.
In other words, the danger would occur in about half an hour.
Chen Luo put his hands together. "Mi Fan, tell me the details."
Mi Fan began to sense carefully, taking a long breath.
"I feel like you almost die, though extremely dangerous, it seems to come with amazing benefits."
Mi Fan could only know the result, not the detailed process, such as what caused the danger.
Just now, Zhao Hai came and said there was an exceptionally terrifying zombie, so it was highly likely that the danger came from it.
A hundred meters in an instant, a wind blade?
At the very least, it was a Level 7 wind-type mutant, otherwise, it wouldn't be that fast.
Damn it, is this zombie really coming for me?
Chen Luo frowned, not remembering the appearance of such a zombie.
Butterfly effect, perhaps. In my past life, I had already been driven out of the villa area by this time, and the surrounding area had also changed drastically because of me.
Amazing benefits?
Level 7 or 8 crystals were very beneficial, but they wouldn't be considered amazing benefits for me.
Could it be that a King-level mutant was about to kill me when it suddenly died, and I got lucky?
That was probably the only explanation.
Chen Luo asked, "What about Mi Ling and Mi Li? Are they in danger?"
Mi Fan shook her head. "No."
Chen Luo didn't ask about the ordinary members. It was pointless to ask. Mi Fan wouldn't say anything, so it wouldn't count as changing their fate.
Zhao Hai, Song Ling, and the others sat on the roadside, smoking one cigarette after another.
Recently, one unlucky thing after another had happened. First, they were targeted by Ye Gaofei, and then by a mutant.
Fortunately, they were still alive.
Chen Luo appeared not far from the gate, holding Mi Fan.
Mi Ling and Mi Li had gone out to kill zombies and would be back soon.
Five minutes later, Su Dazhu led the way, and Mi Ling and Mi Li returned, chatting and laughing.
Their feet had already stepped into the base.
Suddenly, an unexpected event occurred.
A young man covered in blood, with blood-red eyes, surrounded by swirling wind, approached the villa area. He stared at Mi Ling and Mi Li, revealing an interested expression.
The member on duty saw him. With his good eyesight, he saw that he was covered in blood and immediately shouted loudly to ask.
"Who is it? What are you doing?"
Limited by the angle, Chen Luo didn't see him immediately. Hearing this voice, he was instantly alert and walked towards the gate.
The young man smiled coldly, not answering. Wind rose beneath his feet, and in less than two seconds, he appeared at the gate of the base.
The young man's palms were somewhat black. He waved them towards the guarding members, and instantly, extremely sharp gales of wind swept towards them.
With two consecutive swipes, the dozen or so members on duty were torn to pieces as if they had been pierced by sharp daggers.
Mi Ling, Mi Li, and Su Dazhu heard the commotion and looked back, seeing the tragic scene of the members on duty being instantly killed.
Chen Luo's heart sank. He didn't tell the three to run quickly because it was obvious that they couldn't escape the pursuit of this wind-type zombie.
Chen Luo casually threw Mi Fan aside and began to condense the Void Sword as soon as he became alert.
With a Void Walk, Chen Luo arrived behind the wind-type zombie, and the Void Sword was about to cut the wind-type zombie in half.
Level 7 was another qualitative change. The body would begin to have some resistance to spatial power, so Chen Luo couldn't kill it instantly if he wanted to.
Void Walk, plus the Void Sword, was not an unsolvable problem; otherwise, how could Chen Luo have been unable to defeat Mi Ling in his past life?
At higher levels, even if the body was cut in half, they wouldn't die. Powerful vitality would allow them to continue to survive.
However, Chen Luo estimated that this zombie was probably Level 7. If it was an elemental type, even if he couldn't kill it with one strike, he could still kill it with two more strikes.
He might get injured in the process, which was probably what Mi Fan meant by being in mortal danger but not dying.
This was a young zombie. Its use of wind-type abilities was not skilled, and its combat experience and skills were low.
When Chen Luo was behind it, even though it sensed him, it didn't react immediately to use a wind shield to defend, or rather, it couldn't.
Chen Luo's Void Blade, as always, smoothly struck its neck.
What made Chen Luo's expression change drastically was that the Void Blade only entered its neck a little, not deeply.
He couldn't kill it with a few strikes at all.
Damn it, Level 8 or 9?
What the hell, how am I supposed to fight this?
The advanced version of the Void Sword, the Dimensional Sword, couldn't be used, and he definitely couldn't kill it instantly.
The Dimensional Sword was a more advanced spatial power. It wasn't that Chen Luo's ability power wasn't enough, but the quality of his ability wasn't sufficient to condense the Dimensional Sword.
That required King-level.
In the past, when encountering this kind of zombie, Chen Luo could just run, and it couldn't catch up.
But now...
The wind-type zombie felt that there was a sneaky person behind it, turned around, and slapped the bewildered Chen Luo on the arm.
Chen Luo was immediately sent flying.
Chen Luo's arm was instantly broken.
The wind-type zombie seemed to glance at Chen Luo with disdain and continued to walk towards Mi Ling and Mi Li.
Chen Luo covered his arm, not caring about the pain. The only way now was to use Void Walk to take people with him, taking Su Dazhu, Mi Ling, and Mi Li together.
But Chen Luo hadn't mastered Void Walk with others. He could only rely on luck to trigger it once.
There was no other way. He could only try.
Chen Luo instantly arrived in front of the three, hugged them, and started to move.
Chen Luo was dumbfounded. He failed. Only he escaped.
Mi Li and the others continued to run forward, dodging the pursuit of the wind-type zombie.
But was that useful? They couldn't escape at all.
The wind-type zombie's hand was about to grab Mi Li's neck.
Mi Li...
Could it be that I still can't avoid the fate of dying alone like in my previous life?
Chen Luo used Void Walk and came in front of Mi Li, blocking for her, his eyes staring fixedly at the wind-type zombie.
Now, there was one more way.
That was for the mutant's lifespan to expire and suddenly die.
Chen Luo shouted wildly in his heart, you damn it, hurry up and die.
Chen Luo's emotional fluctuations were abnormal, and the crystal in his mind produced a mysterious change.
The wind-type zombie suddenly seemed to have been put on fast forward countless times, not just doubling its speed.
Time acceleration.
The wind-type zombie fell straight to the ground.
The crystal in Chen Luo's mind also consumed all of his ability power in an instant and was almost shattered.
Chen Luo's vision went black, and he also fell to the ground.
