Chapter 279: Display of Power ( 1 )
Hearing Chen Zhiyi's words, Li Qixuan asked as he pulled out his airguns and started shooting, "Huh? What do you mean?"
"Did you forget our bet this morning? Whoever kills the least zombies has to wash everyone's clothes for three days," Chen Zhiyi reminded him.
"That was serious?" Li Qixuan asked with raised eyebrows.
"Of course," Chen Zhiyi replied matter-of-factly.
Despite the members being able to kill the zombies using the airguns, the number of zombies was too many, and after an hour, the zombies had started climbing the wall.
With more and more zombies' corpses piled up under the wall, the zombies stepped on them and reached out their hands upwards while roaring.
Seeing this, Jin Xuyan raised his hand, and a massive black fireball flew towards the zombies.
BOOM!
The fireball explodes upon contact and blows a large group of zombies to pieces. As the black flame burned, he used his energy to control the black flame and spread it towards the surroundings zombies.
Standing on top of the wall, everyone saw how the black flame was coming to life and burned every zombie that made contact with it.
In just a few minutes, all of the zombies' corpses under the wall and all of the zombies within twenty meters of the wall had turned into ashes, leaving the glistening crystal cores behind.
After burning the zombies, Jin Xuyan held his girlfriend's hand and transferred the energy absorbed by his black flame to her.
Since Jiao Lizhi didn't use her ability, her energy was still full. The moment she received the energy transfusion from her boyfriend, she felt the energy inside her body bloating and almost overflowing.
Before she could feel the pain of overflowing energy, her space suddenly shook, and all of the energy coming from Jin Xuyan was absorbed by her space.
Noticing this, Jiao Lizhi's eyes flashed with surprise. She quickly used her consciousness to check her space and saw the cold energy seeping into the pond, the black soil, grassland, and even the sky.
As the energy was absorbed by her space, the fog covering the border of her space was pushed back and went further.
Raising her head, she noticed that as the fog covering the sky receded, the previously dimmed light became brighter, as if the cloudy sky was slowly clearing up. Now, she could even feel the breeze.
While she felt that a long time had passed, it was only two minutes in reality.
Jin Xuyan noticed his girlfriend was suddenly standing there in a dazed, and asked with worry, "Ah Zhi, what's wrong?"
Hearing his voice, she snapped back from her thoughts and said, "Brother Yan, can you transfer more energy to me?"
The moment he heard this, he said, "Ah Zhi, you didn't use your ability. If I continue transferring energy to you, you will explode from the overflow."
Noticing his worries, Jiao Lizhi pulled at his collar. When he leaned down, she tiptoed and whispered in his ear, "Brother Yan, my space can absorb the energy you transfer, and it seems that my space is getting bigger after absorbing your energy."
When he heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked teasingly, "Ah Zhi, isn't this equal to you absorbing my Yang energy?"
As soon as she heard his words, images unsuitable for children flashed in Jiao Lizhi's mind. Her cheeks flushed, and she glared at him while saying, "We are in the middle of a battle. What nonsense are you saying?"
Watching his cute girlfriend puffing her cheeks, Jin Xuyan chuckled and said, "Okay, I will say it after the battle."
Jiao Lizhi rolled her eyes at him, too lazy to bother with him.
Since his girlfriend had already made a request, Jin Xuyan no longer held back. Turning to his team, he said, "Everyone, it's time to train your ability."
The moment they heard this, the Phantom team members holstered their airguns and raised their hands.
Standing not far from them, Gu Shaoze and his team watched them in anticipation.
Rumors said that each of the Phantom team's members was very strong, but so far, not many had seen their true power. Now, they finally had the chance to see if the rumors were true or just an exaggeration.
Before everyone could launch their attacks, Jiao Lizhi had already raised her hand and created a massive water ball.
Seeing this, Li Qixuan raised his eyebrows. He had met several water-type ability users after the apocalypse, and none of them had any attack power. They could only use their ability to provide water for drinking.
'She didn't plan to use that water ball to smash the zombies, did she?' he thought inwardly.
Not far from him, Fu Leizhen pulled at Xu Danyu's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "That sister didn't think that using a big water ball could deal any damage to the zombies, did she?"
"How would I know? I'm a space-type ability user, not a water-type," Xu Danyu replied as he shrugged.
Just after he finished his words, Jiao Lizhi threw the massive water ball toward the zombies. As it flew at a fast speed, she waved her hands, and the water ball exploded in mid-air.
The explosion killed a group of zombies under it. When everyone thought that it was the end of her attack, countless water balls floated in the air and turned into ice needles in a few seconds.
With another wave of her hands, the ice needles flew toward the surrounding zombies and pierced through their skulls and bodies.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
"Roarr!!"
In less than three minutes, she had killed several hundred zombies, leaving Li Qixuan, Gu Shaoze, and his team stunned.
Not knowing that her experiment with new skills had shocked her team, Jiao Lizhi continued controlling her ice needles as she killed zombies.
Seeing that the zombies' corpses were piling up again, Jin Xuyan used his black flame to burn them into ashes. At the same time, the energy absorbed into his body was transferred to his girlfriend.
