Chapter 48: The Appearance of Two Types of Special Zombies

The second wave began!

Enoch stood where he was and quietly looked at the black fog around him.

At that moment, the black fog was like boiling soup, constantly rolling.

It was as if there was a huge monster in the depths of the black fog, twisting its body uneasily. Every move it made would cause the black fog to become restless as if danger was approaching.

“There must be something in the depths of the black fog that I don’t know about!”

Enoch was absolutely sure that something terrifying was stirring restlessly in the depths of the black fog. It was trying to invade this place and his floating island.

However, because of the existence of the Divine Tree Realm, it was unable to achieve this goal.

Therefore, Enoch was more cautious and serious than before.

Although these monsters didn’t pose any threat to him, Enoch felt that he should be prepared for the future.

This way, at least he would be able to relax and calm himself down when facing possible threats in the future. It would not be to the point where he would be helpless and could only waste his time in fear and nervousness.

The black fog slowly invaded Enoch’s floating island. This time, Enoch was especially serious when observing his surroundings. He could see that the light barrier that had previously blocked the black fog had completely lost its effect.

The black fog easily penetrated the light barrier and entered Enoch’s floating island.

However, not much black fog entered Enoch’s floating island, only a small portion of it. The remaining large amounts of black fog were intercepted as they entered the floating island.

Enoch even saw a huge ball of black fog trying to rush into his floating island, but the light barrier stopped and repelled it back,

‘I now have a rough understanding of how much black fog can enter and how many enemies this black fog represents,’ Enoch speculated in his heart upon seeing this scene.

He had a rough idea of the situation of the black fog and its relationship with the light barrier.

This made Enoch gain a deeper understanding of this game.

While Enoch was thinking about these things, some zombies slowly walked out of the black fog.

There were about 120 zombies this time, most of them slow, low-level ones. However, Enoch also detected some more powerful and dangerous zombies.

[Special Zombie: Runner]

[Type: Humanoid Monster]

[Skill: Virus Teeth, Sprint]

[Combat Strength: D–]

…

[Special Zombie: Flame Launcher]

[Type: Humanoid Monster]

[Skill: Virus Teeth, Flamethrower]

[Combat Strength: D]

This time, there were two types of special zombies. The Runner’s legs seemed to have been strengthened by something special. They were much longer than ordinary people’s legs and were not as ragged as other zombies’. Its whole body was clean as well.

Of course, this was only compared to the other zombies, whose bodies were rotten and broken. Compared to humans, this Runner was still dirty. Its body was covered in blood, and it also exuded a rotten smell. Nevertheless, it wasn’t as disgusting as the other zombies.

However, it couldn’t be denied that each of these Runners looked like sprinters on the field. They were lying on the ground with their butts sticking up high in a running posture when they appeared.

When they found their target, they immediately charged at it. They were very fast. If it weren’t for Enoch’s improved constitution, he would have only seen a series of afterimages.

The Flame Launcher was a huge, fat zombie. Flames kept pouring out of its mouth, making it look like a fire demon that had crawled out of the depths of hell.

Evidently, this zombie could spit out flames from its mouth.

Unexpectedly, in terms of moving speed, it was as slow as the other zombies.

It was also in tatters, like an obese patient who was moving toward Enoch with difficulty.

These two types of zombies were monsters that Enoch had never seen before in the Netherworld. Hence, his interest was piqued upon seeing them.

The information of two more monsters was also a good thing for Enoch.

Hence, he observed them with great anticipation.

The Runner’s speed was still improving, and in less than a second, it reached its limit.

At that moment, the Runners’ speed even surpassed the world record for sprinting.

The Pea Shooters spat out their pea bullet the moment the Runners entered their range.

The green pea bullets left green afterimages in the air, their speed even faster than real bullets.

The moment the Pea Shooters spat them out, the pea bullets appeared in front of the Runners.

Bang!

In the next second, several Runners collapsed on the ground.

Most of them had been shot in the head, but one of them had been shot in the shoulder. As such, the Pea Shooter fired a second pea bullet before killing the Runner.

From an ordinary person’s view, it might have been a simple mistake, but Enoch had seen it clearly.

It hadn’t been a mistake. The Runners had twisted their bodies, trying to dodge the pea bullets, when they were about to hit them.

Unfortunately, the pea bullets were faster than them, so almost all the Runners had failed. Only the one with the injured shoulder had been half successful.

Still, this discovery made Enoch become even more serious. This was enough to prove that the Pea Shooters could not stop the special zombies.

One Pea Shooter could probably stop two Runners. Any more, and Enoch would not be able to stop them at all.

This was an important issue, so Enoch had to take it seriously.

“Although the Runners are fast, their physical abilities are similar to ordinary zombies. The Pea Shooters can also kill them with one shot. But these Flame Launchers…”

Enoch raised his head and looked at the Flame Launchers, which were still moving slowly in the zombie crowd. His eyes were filled with curiosity and expectation.

He wanted to know how strong the Flame Launchers were, as well as whether the Pea Shooters could withstand their attacks and successfully hold on until the third wave.
