Chapter 86 Space Compression!

Inside.

Dozens of zombies attacked madly, with an advantage in close combat.

Outside.

One to two hundred zombies, led by a mutant, were rapidly approaching.

Screams followed one after another.

Team members fell to the ground.

Dismembered.

Gnawed upon!

Even though Bird Lord had comprehended something, facing one to two hundred zombies, it was impossible to kill them all.

Not to mention, there was a Level 6 mutant.

"Roar!"

Finally.

The mutant charged to within striking distance.

"Caw caw…" Bird Lord shrieked and retreated.

Running.

While attempting to attack and slow it down.

How could its speed match that of the mutant?

It was slower than even ordinary zombies.

*Poof!*

The mutant's sharp fingertips grazed its flank.

Feathers scattered.

Blood gushed out.

"Caw…"

Fortunately, it was near its wing, and it wasn't ripped open on the spot.

Bird Lord cried out in pain and fled wildly.

Unfortunately, it couldn't outrun the mutant.

The second claw came!

This time.

It was certain death!

A sneer appeared on the mutant's grayish-white face.

At Level 6, it possessed high intelligence.

It experienced emotions.

It was furious.

This damned bird had suspended it in mid-air and killed dozens of its subordinates.

Unbearable!

Once caught, it would be torn apart and eaten alive!

"Bird Lord, be careful!"

Suddenly!

A cry of alarm came from high in the sky.

It was Zhou Haiyang!

But it was too late!

It took time for the giant bird to dive, and even with his metal manipulation, it took time to attack.

Not good!

Qin Feng's face paled in shock.

His combat style was close combat.

At this distance…

Even Zhou Haiyang couldn't intervene in time.

Let alone him.

Bird Lord was on the verge of death.

Only milliseconds away!

Earlier, while killing ordinary zombies, he had a fleeting thought but couldn't grasp it.

Now, in this moment of crisis, he grasped it!

Suddenly!

The void around the Level 6 mutant inexplicably became viscous.

As if it were no longer low-density air.

But glue.

It was about to catch Bird Lord, but that few centimeters of distance felt like an insurmountable chasm.

Taking advantage of the mutant's drastically reduced speed, Bird Lord, still shaken, escaped.

So close!

I almost died!

"What is this…" Zhou Haiyang was stunned.

He could feel an incredibly powerful mental force erupting from Qin Feng's brain.

The space where the mutant was located was solidifying at an astonishing rate.

First, it went from low-density air to a paste-like viscosity.

Then.

From viscous to solid.

In an instant.

The mutant froze completely, like a specimen, motionless.

"Die!"

Qin Feng grunted.

Everyone stared with wide eyes.

Indeed!

The mutant, standing two meters seventy-eight tall, directly transformed into a…

Pea-sized ball!

*Plop.*

The small ball landed on the ground.

"Captain, you… comprehended again?!" Zhou Haiyang was dumbfounded.

He wasn't sure what this ability was.

But Qin Feng had never used it before, so it must have been a recent comprehension.

A person so large…

Transformed into a small ball?!

Qin Feng, beads of sweat on his forehead, jumped off the bird's back.

He had indeed comprehended something.

However, even though he was already Level 5, using this ability was difficult.

It consumed over sixty percent of his mental energy in a single use!

In other words.

He could only use it once in a single battle.

With him and Zhou Haiyang joining the fray, many of the remaining ordinary Level 4 zombies scattered in fear, and those who couldn't escape were all killed.

"Caw caw!"

Bird Lord quickly scurried over and rubbed desperately against Qin Feng's thigh.

Fortunately, big brother arrived.

Otherwise, I would have been dead!

Big brother is mighty!

"So many people died…" Zhou Haiyang looked at the corpses on the ground, his brows knitted with sadness.

Nearly half of the forty-person team had been slaughtered.

"This is the apocalypse, people die," Qin Feng said calmly.

He had divided the base's combat members into many small groups to hunt down the zombies in the mountains.

This, in itself, was a form of training!

Having Zhou Haiyang scout from the air could minimize casualties.

But it couldn't completely prevent them.

"Captain, what was that ability of yours?" Zhou Haiyang suddenly asked.

It was too powerful!

Previously, Qin Feng could instantly kill mutants, but it was always in close-quarters combat.

Using spatial blades and brute force.

But now?

From such a distance.

A Level 6 mutant was directly reduced to a small ball!

Powerful.

And bizarre.

"Space compression."

Qin Feng didn't elaborate: "Aren't you supposed to be on patrol? Do you want to repeat what happened last time?!"

Last time, during the pursuit.

It was because Zhou Haiyang was fighting zombies with him.

He didn't have time to notice his comrades in danger.

If Han Ling hadn't comprehended her ability, many more would have died.

"Yes!"

Zhou Haiyang startled.

He quickly mounted the bird and took to the sky.

"Finally comprehended."

Qin Feng secretly rejoiced.

At this moment.

He finally possessed a ranged attack ability.

Through space compression, targets within the affected area were compressed countless times.

Instantly killed!

First, the attack distance was very long.

Second, the power was extremely potent.

The drawback was…

It consumed an enormous amount of mental energy.

This ability could only be used against major bosses; it was absolutely impossible to use against small fry.

Consuming sixty percent of his mental energy in one go, he couldn't use it carelessly at this stage.

The pursuit continued for several days.

Finally, over ninety percent of the zombies that had fled into the mountains were eliminated.

The sheer numbers meant.

There were bound to be stragglers.

However, the remaining ones were scattered zombies, unable to form large groups, and ordinary survivors could handle them.

Several hundred people returned to the base.

This pursuit operation had greatly honed everyone.

Compared to fighting the zombies controlled by Liu Pi.

It was more effective!

After all, Liu Pi precisely controlled the zombies, and Wang Shouli could heal them at any time.

Everyone knew there was no immediate danger.

The sense of crisis was much smaller.

"Finally home."

Hundreds of people walked outside the air-raid shelter.

*Whoosh.*

The dark giant bird landed.

Qin Feng and Zhou Haiyang jumped off.

"Report from each squad!" Tang Xiaoying shouted.

"3871!" Xiao Ruoruo stepped forward.

This was her combat squad's kill count for the past few days.

"3228!"

"4195!"

Each squad reported their numbers.

"6753!"

Tang Xiaoying reported last and walked up to Qin Feng: "Report, Captain! Total zombies pursued and killed: 47922!"

"What about the Captain?" Zhou Haiyang quickly asked.

"Not many."

Qin Feng smiled.

His solo efforts surpassed those of other squads of dozens of people.

He was afraid of discouraging everyone if he stated his numbers.

"Right!"

Suddenly!

Zhang Heng pointed at the cage not far away: "What do we do with that guy?"

Zhang Tianbao!

Eyes turned towards him.

He seemed to have no value anymore, right?

"Bring him into the air-raid shelter."

Qin Feng walked inside: "Wang Shouli, come with me."

Someone immediately opened the alloy cage.

And dragged Zhang Tianbao out.

On the other side.

Wang Shouli followed Qin Feng into the air-raid shelter.

Everyone was guessing, could the Captain be planning to keep Zhang Tianbao?

Blue Star.

The Great Xia live stream was abuzz with discussion.

Not only the high-ranking officials on the apocalypse star were confused.

Hundreds of millions of netizens were equally bewildered.

—'What is Qin Feng doing? Since they caught him, why not torture him to death?'

—'His personal terminal was confiscated, what use does Zhang Tianbao have now?'

—'Are they going to use his farts to scare zombies?'

—'Don't be ridiculous! Do you think zombies are really afraid of his farts?'

—'You see a pile of shit and avoid it out of disgust, it doesn't mean you're afraid of a pile of shit.'

—'Look! Qin Feng… is holding a knife!'
