Heal!
Wang Shouli snapped back to reality. A hazy white light appeared and fell on his wife, Jiang Xia.
The bleeding immediately stopped.
But!
It wasn't enough!
Level 1 Heal was far from powerful.
Jiang Xia's injuries were too severe.
It could only delay the onset of death.
"Xia'er... Xia'er! I can save you, I definitely can!" Wang Shouli cast Heal again.
After casting Heal for the third time, he collapsed on the ground, panting heavily.
Level 1.
His spiritual power was too limited.
He could only cast it three times.
"If she follows me, she can live."
Qin Feng took out a marble-sized crystal and said, "This thing, even I am reluctant to use. I only have one."
"As long as you eat this, you will immediately reach Level 2!"
He absolutely would not use a Level 3 crystal to save Jiang Xia for no reason.
Unless.
He could recruit Wang Shouli into his team.
In the apocalypse, everything came at a price.
"I am willing!" Wang Shouli said without hesitation, taking the crystal and holding it in his palm.
"There's no time!"
Qin Feng frowned. "Absorbing it is too slow, eat it directly!"
Swallowing it would be much faster.
Of course, it was disgusting.
After all, it was dug out from a zombie's head.
Gulp!
Wang Shouli didn't hesitate, swallowing the crystal in one gulp.
"Give it to her to eat."
Qin Feng took out another Level 1 crystal and handed it to Xiao Ruoruo.
Xiao Ruoruo took it and fed it to Jiang Xia.
As long as she absorbed the energy within the crystal, she would become an ability user.
As an ability user, her physical strength would increase, allowing Jiang Xia to hold on longer.
Whoosh!
Another wave of white light appeared.
This time, the white light was noticeably more concentrated.
When it landed on her, the wound began to heal slowly, not just stopping the bleeding.
At the same time.
After swallowing the crystal, Jiang Xia's physique also improved slightly.
"It's working!" Han Ling was very excited.
Jiang Xia's breathing gradually stabilized.
Having advanced to Level 2, Wang Shouli had much more spiritual power. He cast Heal repeatedly.
The more he stacked it, the stronger the healing effect.
With the fifth cast of Heal, the wound on Jiang Xia's severed arm had already scabbed over!
"Holy crap!"
Zhou Haiyang was dumbfounded. "A super healer?!"
This was a fatal injury!
Healed so quickly?
He realized that using a Level 3 crystal to get such a super healer was not a loss!
"Husband, I... I'm still alive?" Jiang Xia could already stand up.
"As long as I'm here, you won't die!"
Wang Shouli nodded vigorously.
Until...
When he saw his wife's empty left arm, his eyes clearly dimmed.
Heal could repair wounds.
But it couldn't make an arm grow back.
"Level 5 Heal can regenerate severed limbs."
Qin Feng walked over and patted his shoulder. "Keep working hard!"
Regenerate severed limbs?!
Wang Shouli was stunned for a moment, then his face was filled with determination. "My life is yours!"
He understood that Heal had no combat power.
Only by following Qin Feng could he obtain abundant crystals and improve his strength.
Otherwise.
His wife's severed arm would never recover!
To break through to Level 2, he had agreed to follow Qin Feng, but that was to save his wife.
It was not from the bottom of his heart.
Now, he sincerely wanted to follow Qin Feng.
The few of them searched around again.
Alas!
There were no other survivors in the entire village.
Qin Feng was in a hurry to leave, but Wang Shouli insisted on burying all the deceased villagers. By the time they finished, it was already afternoon.
...
Great Xia Live Stream.
Countless netizens sighed.
The live stream perspective was locked onto the adventurers.
Previously, they had seen the Divine Punishment team hunting zombies, but today...
Through Qin Feng's perspective, they saw the entire village massacred, a river of blood.
— "Too tragic! So many elderly people, children, all dead..."
— "Wang Shouli and Jiang Xia are still alive, which is also a sliver of hope left by the village."
— "But speaking of which, with Wang Shouli, the Divine Punishment team has gained a great asset!"
— "The value of a healer is immeasurable!"
— "Look quickly! That damn Zhang Tianbao is up to no good again..."
...
Apocalypse Star, Shangjing.
Zhang Heng's team was named 'Heaven Slayer'.
The name was very domineering.
Unfortunately, let alone slaying heaven, they could barely kill zombies.
Zhang Heng had advanced to Level 2 yesterday.
How high-spirited he was?
He claimed that from now on, he could easily kill zombies and help other team members improve.
This morning.
He had also pulled Zhang Tianbao into the team.
The result?
At nine o'clock this morning, the zombies collectively evolved!
All zombies became Level 2, and out of their seven team members, only he was Level 2; the rest were Level 1.
Level 1 ability users killing Level 2 zombies...
It was very difficult!
Fortunately, Zhang Heng was Level 2; otherwise, not to mention killing zombies, even survival would be a luxury.
Whoosh!
A team member lured the zombies.
Zhang Heng seized the opportunity to sneak attack. Two wind blades flew out.
Level 2 wind blades cut Level 1 zombies like vegetables.
However, against zombies that were also Level 2, he could not achieve a one-hit kill.
Luckily.
Zhang Heng thought of a new method.
Cutting the tendons!
Two wind blades flew out, severing the zombie's leg tendons. The zombie immediately fell to the ground, only able to crawl.
As long as it didn't run at high speed, it would be much easier to kill.
"Go!"
Zhang Heng gave the order.
A Level 1 physique-type team member rushed forward and swung a great sword.
Crack!
The zombie's head was severed.
"Go!"
The physique-type team member pointed at Zhang Tianbao and yelled, "Get the crystal out!"
Except for Zhang Heng, the other team members had always been unhappy with Zhang Tianbao.
They often made him do this and that.
Zhang Tianbao bowed and scraped, then quickly ran to get the crystal.
With his strength, it was not an easy task to smash the head of a Level 2 zombie.
After a long while.
He finally managed to pry open the zombie's head.
And dug out a Level 2 crystal.
But!
While everyone wasn't paying attention, he quietly swallowed the crystal and took out another one from his pocket, a bean-sized crystal.
He had discovered two zombie corpses while urinating at noon today.
The zombies had died before they evolved.
The crystals were still there.
So, he quietly dug out the zombie crystals, but did not use them immediately, instead...
He planned to find an opportunity to substitute the genuine article with a fake one!
He smeared the Level 1 crystal on the zombie's head, getting some fresh brain matter on it.
"Captain, the crystal." He handed the crystal to Zhang Heng.
"That's not right..."
Zhang Heng frowned and mumbled, "It's so small? It's a Level 1 crystal, right?"
"I don't know."
Zhang Tianbao looked innocent. "I just took it out. Maybe... the zombies just evolved, and some crystals haven't upgraded to Level 2 yet?"
Zhang Heng looked at the crystal.
It was indeed just taken out, and it still had brain matter on it.
"Brothers."
He didn't think much of it and changed the subject. "This won't do! There are too many zombies in the city, and they've all evolved to Level 2!"
"I think we should leave the city and go to sparsely populated villages, or even the wilderness."
Few people.
Naturally, fewer zombies.
After all, zombies were transformed from dead people.
"I agree!"
Liu Xiaohui nodded. "Also, we must find a way to speed up our zombie hunting."
"Yes! If our progress can't keep up with the zombies' evolution, we'll be wiped out sooner or later!" Zhang Heng's expression became even more solemn.
"Zombies are less active at night, shall we set off at midnight tonight?"
"Then it's settled."
Zhang Heng nodded and handed the crystal Zhang Tianbao had taken out to a subordinate. "Wu Kai, this is for you."
Wu Kai was the one who had just beheaded the zombie.
He was a physique-type.
Strong.
At Level 1 strength, only he could easily decapitate a Level 2 zombie.
Besides Captain Zhang Heng, he should be the next to break through.
Blue Star.
Great Xia Live Stream.
The curses erupted once again.
