Chapter 218 Opening
"You! Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" Lu Zhou was a little surprised. He originally thought that this old man was a coward, but why did he suddenly become tough again?
"Hey, don't scare me, an old man. I'm very afraid of death. After telling you so much, it seems that the adult is not from your human camp. Then I feel relieved. You just caught one of my clones. It's easy for me to leave!"
After saying that, the old man on the ground seemed to be eroded by mold, and gray quickly crawled up his body. In a few seconds, he decayed into a pile of powder, which immediately dispersed when the breeze blew. Lu Zhou and the two S-class people present immediately extended their mental power to search for the old man's whereabouts with all their strength, but they didn't expect that the three S-class people didn't have any clues at all.
At this moment, three hunchbacked old men suddenly walked out of the crowd. These three old men looked exactly the same, as if they were carved from the same mold, which made people feel creepy. Everyone present was shocked. They had no idea how these three old men appeared, as if they came out of thin air.
This time, before the old man could speak, Lu Zhou and the other two S-classes looked at each other and immediately attacked. They flashed and rushed towards the three old men like lightning, grabbing one each, with clean and neat movements. However, before they could interrogate them, the old men they caught were covered with a layer of mold, which spread rapidly and covered their entire bodies in the blink of an eye.
When others saw this scene, they couldn't help but gasp. The appearance of these three old men was too strange, and the mold on their bodies also made people instinctively feel fear. They were afraid that there might be more around them, so everyone became alert.
The three of them looked at it and their faces suddenly changed. They hurriedly threw away the bodies in their hands. These molds were obviously not good things. They did not dare to touch them without knowing the situation. Lu Zhou was even more decisive. He directly summoned a ball of fire and instantly burned the three bodies on the ground into ashes to prevent the mold from spreading further.
But then a strange scene appeared again. The flames on the ground had not yet gone out, and the sound of an old man coughing was heard again in the crowd. Then two identical old men walked out again. They were wearing the same clothes as before and had the same obscene expressions on their faces, as if they were carved from the same mold.
But this time everyone saw clearly that the old man actually walked out from the clothes of the man in front. Everyone was stunned by this scene. What kind of ability was this? Why was it so weird?
"Humph! You're playing tricks on me!"
Mu Chun discovered the clue at this time and immediately released his mental power. An invisible field appeared. No one was allowed to go out without her consent. He had the strongest mental power among the three S-level ones and was also the best at assisting, so he paid special attention to all kinds of details. Ever since mold appeared on the old man's body, he began to cover everyone in the field with his own abilities to prevent the old man from carrying a plague-like virus. He also paid attention to the energy fluctuations around him at all times.
After seeing the old man just come out, she found that some people had much less dust on their bodies. She secretly paid attention and covered them with her mental power again. Sure enough, she found that many people present had a layer of a substance extremely similar to dust on their bodies. It was just that because a lot of dust was stirred up when everyone worked together to besiege the barrier, everyone in the field was covered in dust, and no one would care who had more dust on their body.
Mu Chun noticed it this time, and immediately used his mental power to cover the few people who were particularly "dirty" and directly lifted them all out. This time the old man stopped smiling and wanted to step forward to save them. However, Lu Zhou understood what was going on, and raised his hand to raise a wall of fire that surrounded the few people.
"Don't move, or I'll set fire if you take another step!" Mu Chun had just told Lu Zhou about his discovery, so Lu Zhou naturally knew what to do.
The hunchbacked old man was frightened by him and dared not move. However, those people had supernatural powers to protect their bodies, but the gray material on their clothes seemed unable to withstand the high temperature and was directly scorched by the flames. The hunchbacked old man immediately shouted, "Don't burn it, don't burn it. I am just joking with you, otherwise I would have killed them long ago!"
"That's why I gave you the chance to speak. Tell me everything you know!" Lu Zhou lowered the temperature of the flame.
The hunchbacked old man calmed down and told his whole story.
In fact, this old man was the one that Zagros and Ma Ming had encountered before. The white substance was his true form. After Zagros injected him with the zombie virus, he was almost killed by the zombie virus, but fortunately he survived at the last moment and his abilities also mutated.
He can transform himself into countless tiny white bacteria and attach them to the surface of other creatures. Under his control, these bacteria generally do not cause harm to the host, and these attached creatures will unknowingly become his eyes.
It can use energy to continuously generate these bacteria. As long as there are enough bacteria, it can be reborn indefinitely.
Before this, he had been hiding outside the city, intending to look for Zagreus, but because the supermarket was closed, he could not find his target. However, when Lu Zhou led everyone to attack the barrier, the powerful force he exuded attracted the attention of the hunchbacked old man. Now he has become a new type of zombie, and the existing instruments for detecting infected bodies have no effect on him. He has discovered this a long time ago, and he is not afraid of it. He has sneaked into the city countless times.
In addition, his most crucial ability is to transform into a dust-like fungus. With this trick, he can easily fly into any corner of the city without anyone noticing.
However, he still underestimated the S-level perception ability. When he arrived, everyone had already started attacking the barrier. He was also curious. He had never seen such a large open space here before. In addition, the familiar power that flashed by before should be here. He did not expect to be discovered by the other party.
However, the field was already covered by several S-level fields at that time, and he certainly could not fly out. It was only a matter of time before he was discovered, so he could only throw out one of his legs to create a clone, pretending to escape. The rest of his body happened to be mixed in the dust and fell on some people on the field.
His ability is neither strong nor weak. Although his means of attack are not strong, it may be impossible to catch him without preparing a few S-level ones. The strange thing is that everyone is on high alert today and the old man is controlled in place. He knows that he can't escape, and can only hope to make some big noise to let Zagros know. Now he is the only one who can save himself.
