EOWCFC Chapter 32 – Gambling on the Right Eye Evolving Again!

Seeing the prey break through, the spirit-type zombies that had been hidden in the dark couldn’t help but scream, and this shocking howl caused the zombies to riot. Soon, two figures sped past, and they swiftly chased Xiao Ziling – they were speed mutant zombies!

    Although Xiao Ziling exploded with his greatest potential for Chu Zhitian, carrying a person still affected his speed, and the zombies chasing behind him were gradually closing the distance.

    Damn, Xiao Ziling couldn’t help cursing. He didn’t expect that there would be zombies with speed variation, which was undoubtedly a bad sign. At this time, from atop his back, Chu Zhitian endured his discomfort and whispered: “Xiaoling, focus on running, I will solve these two zombies.”

    “Okay!” Xiao Ziling didn’t say much, although he knew that Chu Zhitian was already overdrawn. He was at the end of his abilities, but only Chu Zhitian could solve this dilemma at this time.

    Xiao Ziling’s speed increased again, and his legs were already protesting. Xiao Ziling groaned, bit his upper and lower lips, abruptly suppressing the severe pain, and continued to run forward intently.

    But no matter how Xiao Ziling sped up, the two zombies were still close. At this time, Chu Zhitian’s weak voice sounded behind Xiao Ziling’s head: “Forbidden!” One of the zombies was suddenly imprisoned!

    “Crack!” An electric light followed immediately, which immediately scorched the zombie to the ground and killed it.

    Wow! 

Chu Zhitian uncontrollably spit out a few mouthfuls of blood and it splattered on Xiao Ziling’s head and neck. Xiao Ziling knew what it was; Chu Zhitian hurt his internal organs again by overdrafting his ability, and he couldn’t help vomiting blood continuously.

    He could no longer let Chu Zhitian use his abilities, because Xiao Ziling knows what the consequences of excessive overdraft are…

    Suddenly he stopped and went backwards, Xiao Ziling, in a weird pattern that violates the law of natural inertia, suddenly flew back when he ran forward, and went askew. The remaining zombie flashed by and with a blade of light, Xiao Ziling struck with the Tang knife, slashing fiercely from top to bottom.

    Not only was Chu Zhitian stunned in this scene, but the remaining speed mutant zombie was also caught off guard, unable to control its body that was running forward, and slammed into the blade of light.

    Whoosh! Only a terrible howl was left, and the zombie was chopped in half.

    After one hit, Xiao Ziling quickly backed away, continuing to carry Chu Zhitian and fleeing away from the dock. Along the way, there was a constant trail of blood left pooling in Xiao Ziling’s wake. The legs that were hidden by the pants were already bloody and bleeding. This was the consequence of forcibly using skills that violated his limits.

    Perhaps the pain had already reached its extreme, but Xiao Ziling didn’t feel the pain just now. There is only one thought in his mind at this moment, and that is to rush out and leave this terrible dock!

    The spirit-type zombie saw that the delicious food escaped again, couldn’t control its anger, and screamed. The sharp cry awakened the sleeping dock, and all the hidden zombies emerged one after another to chase Xiao Ziling, blocking the way forward.

    Xiao Ziling was distraught. He had tried to contact Dong Haozhe and the others along the way, but the communication device was corrupted and there was no way to get in touch. This must have been caused by the spiritual zombie. That powerful zombie, his mental power covered the entire dock. Don’t ask how Xiao Ziling knew; no matter how Xiao Ziling changed direction along the way, those zombies would accurately block Xiao Ziling on the way forward. It could be understood from this that this powerful zombie had control of the entire dock.

    After waves of zombies flashed, Xiao Ziling finally saw the edge of the dock. At this time, another batch of zombies appeared in the direction of Xiao Ziling’s advancement.

    Before Xiao Ziling’s decision, Chu Zhitian whispered: “Go over!” After hearing that, Xiao Ziling didn’t hesitate anymore, and directly speeded up and rushed forward.

    Lightning flashed! Chu Zhitian let out a low cry, using his last glimmer of potential. He could no longer stay awake, and finally fainted. And because of Chu Zhitian’s attack, there was no obstacle ahead. When Xiao Ziling sped up and was about to rush out of the pier, a distinctive zombie suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Ziling, grinning, and rushing at him while strangely smiling.

    Xiao Ziling only felt a shock of his mind, and could no longer control his hands and feet. He fell straight down. Chu Zhitian on his back was thrown out by this inertia and fell to the ground about three meters away from Xiao Ziling.

    Xiao Ziling struggled to get up, but his legs had lost function, and the consequences of overdrafting his ability had actually appeared at this time. He gritted his teeth, grabbed the ground with his hands, and pulled himself forward little by little, crawling to Chu Zhitian’s side, carefully blocking his front, and watching the zombie in front of him vigilantly.

    This was a very lean zombie, without the carrion look of ordinary zombies, the whole body was black and gray, and the eyes were intelligent. At first glance, he knew that it was wily, and it was not in a hurry to kill Xiao Ziling and the others. It just watched Xiao Ziling’s useless actions playfully, and seemed to be ready to play with them for pre-dinner entertainment.

    This is that powerful spirit zombie! Xiao Ziling’s heart was desperate, and their every move was within its calculations. The previous continuous stream of zombies had obscured it while it waited for Xiao Ziling and Chu Zhitian to come over on their own volition. Did they ever really have a way to survive?

    Xiao Ziling withdrew the Tang knife from behind him with his right hand; even if he died, he would fight to the death. It was not Xiao Ziling’s style to give up without resistance. Subconsciously stretched his left hand into his pocket, trying to find something else that could be used.

    Discovering a hard, stone-like thing in his palm, Xiao Ziling remembered that this was the trophy he had received after disposing of the first spiritual zombie, and suddenly recalled that his right eye had reacted strongly to this crystal nucleus, with a devouring kind of pull. Considering the evolution of his right eye, it probably reacted this way because it had absorbed the virus. Does this crystal nucleus also have a similar function, allowing his right eye to evolve again?

    Thinking of this, Xiao Ziling felt excited. Perhaps this was their only chance to survive; Xiao Ziling knew that this was a gamble. He wasn’t sure what the result would be after absorbing the crystal nucleus with his right eye, but was there any other choice at this time?

    Xiao Ziling, who had no choice, no longer hesitated. He worked hard to open his spiritual eye, and amidst the zombie’s assessing gaze, he placed the crystal core into his right eye.

    As soon as the right eye touched the crystal nucleus, the crystal nucleus strangely turned into a stream of heat and penetrated into the eye. At this time, Xiao Ziling only felt that his right eye was burned by flames, and felt the pain deep in his bone marrow. Xiao Ziling couldn’t help but cry out, both hands clenching and dragging out a few finger-shaped indents into the concrete floor.

    But soon, the sharp pain disappeared, and a cool breeze followed, and a piece of information suddenly appeared in Xiao Ziling’s mind, and he gained a new ability. Xiao Ziling’s gamble was successful, and his right eye was once again evolved!

    Maybe they were really saved this time. When Xiao Ziling discovered his new ability, the fire of hope ignited again.

    Destroy the rogue… destroy all invisible attacks and neutralize them (related to their mental abilities).

    The only thing Xiao Ziling hoped for was that his speed ability could still play its final role and take him and Chu Zhitian away.

    Slowly climbing up, half kneeling on the ground, Xiao Ziling carefully carried Chu Zhitian on his back; the opened spiritual eyes did not dare to leave the body of the spiritual zombie.

    It seemed that the food still wanted to struggle, and the spiritual zombie couldn’t help but roar and follow up with a powerful mental attack.

    At this time, Xiao Ziling’s right eye could fully discern the zombie’s mental power attack that was originally invisible, and he saw a burst of nearly transparent purple energy shooting toward him.

    Xiao Ziling hadn’t reacted yet, but the ability in his right eye opened automatically. Xiao Ziling only felt a pain in his right eye, and the attacking mental power instantly disintegrated and disappeared.

    With this blow, Xiao Ziling knew how powerful the zombie in front of him was. The opponent was just a small mental attack, and his right eye was injured as a result. At this time, Xiao Ziling had no way to withstand its full blow.

    No longer hesitating, Xiao Ziling kicked out from the ground with his right leg, and his whole body shot at the mental zombie like a cannonball.

    This action undoubtedly made the spirit-type zombies angry. In its eyes, this was a provocation against it. He howled up to the sky, and a more powerful spirit attack came head on.

    “Break it for me!” Xiao Ziling screamed wildly, and hoped that bravery triumphed when they met on a narrow road (I’m assuming this is a reference to the saying “enemies meet on a narrow road” meaning that some fights are unavoidable). Whether they make it out alive or dead depends on this last fight.

    His right eye suddenly became bloody, completely blinded, and severe pain followed. At this time, Xiao Ziling successfully passed the spirit zombie, left it behind, and quickly escaped.

    Only the angry zombie was left, and the angry howl could only make all the zombies on the dock panic, but it had no effect on the two who escaped.

    After successfully escaping from the dock, Xiao Ziling felt relieved and almost fell to the ground on the spot, but he knew that he was not out of danger yet. At this time, even an ordinary zombie could bring disaster to him and Chu Zhitian.

    Xiao Ziling was finally able to contact Dong Haozhe, and after communicating their route, Dong Haozhe came over to retrieve them immediately.

    Soon, Xiao Ziling saw the approaching figure of Dong Haozhe. At this time, the exhausted Xiao Ziling finally fell to the ground with a smile!

    “Chu-ge, I didn’t let you down this time!” was Xiao Ziling’s last thought before he lost consciousness and fell into a coma!
