They looked at the first floor as if they were doing a mechanical dance.
Then, as if they had sensed the existence of Chu Xiu and Black Bean, the zombies immediately boiled!
Bang! “Howl, howl!” Bang! Bang! Bang!
The zombies’ howls immediately sounded in the supermarket. At the same time, countless zombies jumped down from the second floor.
These zombies didn’t have the concept of stairs and elevators, so they took the shortest way.
One by one, the zombies jumped down from the higher floor like students who had heard that they were going to eat. Some zombies fell to their deaths.
However, because there were many zombies who fell to their deaths, they formed a meat cushion made of zombie corpses.
As a result, the zombies that jumped later were not injured.
“Black Bean, I’ll rely on you from now on. I’ll leave first!”
Chu Xiu looked at the zombies pouncing on him with a ferocious expression. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from Black Bean’s side.
This made Black Bean’s eyes widen.
“Woof! Woof! Woof!”
Black Bean immediately called out to its surroundings. In its eyes, its master had suddenly disappeared.
But soon, it smelled its master’s scent through its nose.
Although there was a portion of the smell in the middle that was cut off, it could smell its master’s scent coming from a small shop beside it. It knew that Chu Xiu was in a small shop not far away.
Sensing that its master was still nearby, Black Bean immediately relaxed.
Then, it regained its ferocious expression and looked at the zombies that kept surging towards it. It let out a violent roar!
“Roar!!!”
Then, without waiting for the zombies to rush over, Black Bean pounced on them.
Crack, crack, gulp.
Like a black shadow, Black Bean quickly eliminated the nearest zombies.
After biting the heads of these zombies, Black Bean chewed and swallowed them.
Soon, an energy feedback came from its abdomen, making it immediately excited!
To Black Bean, these strange-looking zombies could be said to be delicious food.
Soon, the first floor became a huge chaotic battlefield. Black Bean fought with this group of zombies alone. At the same time, zombies kept falling from upstairs.
At this moment, Chu Xiu arrived at a shop selling snacks. He casually took out a bag of snacks and ate them. As he ate, he admired Black Bean’s violent aesthetics.
Needless to say, the three-meter-long Black Bean could already be said to be a huge beast.
Of course, this was only compared to humans. In the later stages of the apocalypse, there were many really giant beasts. The Black Bean in front of him was only the size of ordinary beasts.
However, Chu Xiu did not care about this, because Black Bean’s abilities had not been completely revealed.
Therefore, Chu Xiu believed that Black Bean had many different aspects as one of the only two creatures in the city that had successfully mutated. Even its special ability would definitely awaken.
Actually, Chu Xiu knew a little about special abilities.
That was, some top-notch experts would awaken special abilities after cultivating to Grade 9.
However, according to what Chu Xiu knew, most of the special abilities awakened by top-notch experts belonged to the elemental category. Very few of them had different abilities.
For example, most Grade 9 experts had awakened abilities similar to cryokinesis and pyrokinesis.
However, before Chu Xiu had been reborn, there was an awakened with an ability that multiplied his strength.
Moreover, it was not doubled, but tripled. Basically, it was very difficult for others to withstand a punch.
It was said that in other cities, the Warrior who had absorbed three pearls had awakened an ability like counter-damage armor.
It could reflect a portion of any close-range damage.
Moreover, that ability was passive. If a Warrior below his level attacked him, they would be severely injured.
However, he didn’t know how much damage it could cause. Nonetheless, that special ability also meant that others would awaken strange special abilities.
Fortunately, the superpower Chu Xiu awakened was unique, which meant that he was the only one who had it.
Before he had been reborn, there were two top-notch powerhouses who had awakened the same special ability. After using it, neither of them could do anything to the other. In the end, they could only fight head-on.
‘If all Grade 9 powerhouses can awaken special abilities, I wonder if I’ll awaken again after reaching Grade 9.1 don’t mind having too many special abilities. It’s good to awaken one more.’
Just as Chu Xiu was thinking happily, the battle on the first floor changed.
On the first floor, Black Bean was panting a little. It stuck out its tongue and kept letting out heat.
Its body was already dyed red by the zombie’s blood, and headless zombie corpses were lying everywhere on the ground.
It had been fighting for more than 20 minutes, and had killed more than 150 zombies, but it felt that there were still too many zombies around.
It was still raining zombies from upstairs. Those zombies still rushed over fearlessly.
However, Black Bean was a little tired after killing so many in one go.
Moreover, with every kill, it had to immediately eat the head. This was because if it bit off the head and threw it aside, the things it needed in the head would vaporize. As time passed, it would become useless.
Therefore, the Black Beans could not kill first before eating. Instead, the zombies had to be killed and eaten at the same time.
“Howl!” “Howl!”
The zombies from all directions continued to pounce on Black Bean, while Black Bean easily dodged the zombies’ attacks. It stepped on their heads and kept running and dodging.
Although this could let it slowly recover some stamina, Black Bean was very unhappy.
To it, other than Chu Xiu, the other two-legged creatures in front of it were existences it hated. It actually hated these humans.
If not for Chu Xiu’s appearance, which made it realize that humans were different, it would have become completely different from before.
To Black Bean, Chu Xiu was its sky. It would only rely on Chu Xiu.
As for the other zombies, they were like trash in its eyes.
As for these trash-like existences, Black Bean wanted to learn the attitude of humans towards trash burning in the videos it had seen previously.
“Howl!!!”
As if the anger in its heart had been ignited, Black Bean suddenly raised its head and roared.
At the same time, its body began to produce weak black flames!
“This is?!”
Chu Xiu, who had been watching the show in the shop, was about to deal with Black Bean later when he saw Black Bean’s performance. He immediately stood up in surprise.
The black flames on Black Bean’s body suddenly burned fiercely!
At the same time, some of the black sparks that fell to the ground did not go out. Instead, they were still burning, and they were getting bigger!
Soon, a black burning field was formed around Black Bean!
The black flames seemed to have a life of their own as they strangely twisted and extended!
One of the zombies plunged into the fire recklessly. As soon as it stepped on the black flames, the flames quickly spread from the zombie’s ankle to its entire lower body, then to its upper body, and quickly covered the entire zombie!
As for the other zombies that barged in, they were quickly covered by flames like the one beside them!
The flames seemed to be infected with magic. Soon, zombies passed flames down to zombies, and the entire first floor was instantly enveloped by the black flames!
‘Interesting. These flames are actually not hot at all.’
Chu Xiu, who was originally in the shop, walked out of the hall and approached a single flame.
He realized that although these black flames burned the entire first floor, he did not feel any heat. Instead, he felt a bone-chilling cold.
Chu Xiu had no intention of touching these flames. He felt that these flames were not simple.
He raised his head and carefully observed the zombies enveloped by the black flames. He found that after these zombies were enveloped, they actually found it difficult to move.
After struggling a few times, they stopped while still in the middle of the last motion they made.
‘This black flame isn’t burning. It’s devouring!’
Chu Xiu quickly discovered the abnormality of the black flame!
