Chapter 43 The Fall of the Barrier
The zombie giant stared at Xiao Jian fiercely, but its health had been emptied...
However, it was unwilling to die, and raised its fist to hit the ground.
"Boom..."
The earth was shaking, and the explosion-like loud noise made Xiao Jian feel a little familiar...
After completing the last attack of venting anger, the zombie giant finally fell.
The five or six-meter-high behemoth collapsed and fell into the big pit it had smashed.
It was a pity that as a zombie, it did not deserve a grave. Its huge body quickly vaporized and dissipated, and finally disappeared in the sun, leaving only a golden treasure box in its original place.
"Huh..."
Xiao Jian breathed a sigh of relief and stopped attacking.
After killing the strongest BOSS, ordinary zombie evolvers could no longer threaten Xiao Jian's safety.
Da Huang's wandering output could take away a zombie evolver every round, and the plants, if they could hit a critical hit, could also kill a zombie in one round.
First, they killed several zombies inside the "breakwater", and then Da Huang and the plants turned their guns and began to deal with the zombies outside the "breakwater".
Then the battle entered a positive cycle, and the number of zombies piled up in front of the "breakwater" began to gradually decrease.
Every four rounds or so, the iron "breakwater" would be broken once.
But Xiao Jian would soon repair it.
The battle was deadlocked.
Until Xiao Jian repaired the iron "breakwater" for the fourth time, the shadow in the fog finally disappeared completely.
After controlling the plants to kill the last zombie, Xiao Jian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The battle was over, but the doubts brought by the battle always troubled Xiao Jian.
After packing up all the spoils, Xiao Jian did not count the gains immediately, but used the [Harmony Stone] to reopen his mobile phone and look at the last text message...
Although there was no information about the BOSS on it, it was obvious that the monster they faced was exactly the same as the monster Xiao Jian encountered.
"…Is it because we are in the same area? But why is the boss spawning here?"
Xiao Jian frowned.
Since the Crowman boss was defeated, the monster spawning pattern in the fog has been broken.
First, there were no monsters for several consecutive days, and then there were two waves of monsters in a row...even the rhythm of the boss's appearance became chaotic.
This made Xiao Jian's experience built up by the first dozen waves of monsters completely invalid.
Xiao Jian tried to edit a text message to ask, but when he clicked to send, it still only circled and could not be sent.
Obviously, he still couldn't connect to the signal here, and could only receive but not send.
"…"
"Forget it."
Xiao Jian didn't bother too much. Anyway, it was good news to know the monster types in advance, at least he could deal with them a little earlier.
After not bothering about those things that were destined to have no results, Xiao Jian took a look at the harvest.
More than 30 monsters dropped a total of 12 gift boxes, including 3 resource cards, 6 sunflowers, 2 pea shooters, and 1 pea ice shooter.
And the drop of the boss was a bit strange, it was actually three attribute cards! !
"...Why is it that even the boss's drops are getting messed up?" Xiao Jian looked at the three cards with "shoes", "biceps" and "hearts" drawn on them, and his doubts became even heavier.
But this did not prevent him from using these three cards first.
Agility +1
Strength +1
Health +1
Xiao Jian tried to jump and swing his fists, but did not find that he was strengthened anywhere.
But when he tried to lift a stone, he found that he was stronger.
As for agility, there was no change, except that the health value was displayed on the panel of the [Character Card]:
4 health → 5 health
After Xiao Jian counted the harvest, he found that Da Huang did not return to his side. He looked up and found that it was squatting on the "breakwater", staring blankly at the direction outside the fog.
"Da Huang... Da Huang?"
"Meow?"
As Xiao Jian called, Da Huang turned his head to look at him, and then turned back to continue staring at the fog.
"What's the situation? Are there any enemies?" Xiao Jian asked.
"Meow."
Da Huang jumped off the "breakwater", walked a few steps to Xiao Jian's feet, and then jumped onto the sofa and curled up, but his head was still looking out of the fog, and no one knew what he was looking at.
"..."
Xiao Jian observed it for a while and found that it had no signs of being angry, so he ignored it and started to make a fire to cook.
Putting the kettle on the stone stove, Xiao Jian did not compete with Da Huang for the "throne", but sat in front of the stone "holy book" and started to refresh.
When I bought the pistol, it came with 6 boxes of 300 bullets in total. After so many rounds of battles, the bullets were almost exhausted. Xiao Jian wanted to see if he could buy some more bullets or other long-range weapons.
The attribute card gave Xiao Jian 1 point of attack, and the [Wolf Fang Necklace] also came with 2 points. Now Xiao Jian's attack power is almost the same as many 2-star monsters.
Even if he couldn't replenish bullets, if he could get a long-range weapon like a crossbow that could fire continuously, he could maximize Xiao Jian's attack power advantage.
Of course, if there really is nothing, Xiao Jian can also make a sling to throw stones.
After all, there are stones of suitable sizes all over the ground, but in that case he can only attack once per round.
As for throwing directly with his hands?
I don’t know if it’s because the initial velocity is not enough, throwing stones directly with hands is not considered an “attack” behavior, so naturally, the attack bonus on the attribute panel cannot be enjoyed.
While refreshing the “Holy Book”, Xiao Jian also put the [Harmony Stone] on the mobile phone screen.
In this way, if there is a new text message, he can receive it in the first time.
While Xiao Jian was concentrating on refreshing the “Holy Book”, Da Huang kept staring at the outside of the fog, with a little doubt and a little vigilance in his eyes.
I don’t know what is attracting it outside the fog...
Xiao Jian certainly didn’t notice the situation on Da Huang’s side. He refreshed several times in a row and didn’t refresh anything useful, so he couldn’t help but feel a little discouraged.
Suddenly...
“Ding ding...”
The sudden text message alert sound scared Xiao Jian, and then he remembered that his mobile phone was still “on”.
Using the hand of mind to “bring” the screen phantom back to the center of the field of vision, Xiao Jian clicked on the text message he just received:
Obituary, just confirmed 30 minutes ago, the South Fifth Fortress has completely fallen, and all personnel have been killed.
From now on, N7183 will become the front line of resistance. This channel will stop broadcasting here. N5873 will continue the new broadcast.
May the fire of humanity last forever.
All N7183 staff, salute.
"..."
Xiao Jian looked at the text message silently.
N7183 had just taken on the responsibility of broadcasting for two days... and then it was gone?
How tragic was the battlefield of the South Five Walls?
Xiao Jian looked at the last signature and couldn't help muttering to himself: "May the fire of humanity last forever..."
"Meow!"
Da Huang suddenly stood up from the sofa, staring at the outside of the fog with his tail erect.
In the fog, something seemed to be approaching...
