Chapter 206: Second Mutation
Zhang Mu’s mental perception was very sharp. When he took advantage of the zombie monk’s negligence to attack the crystal on his back, he clearly sensed the zombie monk’s unusual emotional fluctuations.
So, this is it, right?
The Obsidian dagger in his hand seemed to merge with his right arm, black lightning struck fiercely at the back of the zombie monk’s neck before he could react, showing no mercy.
As the dagger pierced into the flesh, Zhang Mu’s eyes lit up with joy.
Indeed, this was the key to breaking the situation. Neither he nor Long Qi had thought of this place before. They hadn’t considered this spot at all. However, they had no other choice. Having attacked all parts of the zombie monk, kicking even his lower body countless times, they discovered that, according to the definition of a zombie, even the parts that had lost their function and turned into rotten flesh were extremely tough.
Zhang Mu bent over like a piece of rubber on the zombie monk’s back. Despite the zombie monk twisting left and right, its claws couldn’t reach Zhang Mu. Its intelligence seemed to be gradually replaced by ferocity due to Zhang Mu attacking its weak spot, futilely trying to pull Zhang Mu off its back.
Zhang Mu saw the zombie monk losing control but also getting excited. At that moment, it was better not to think. But as the Obsidian dagger stabbed in, Zhang Mu felt a huge resistance from the flesh, blocking the dagger from moving forward.
Zhang Mu was stunned. Could it be the elemental crystal? Why did it feel so shallow where the elemental crystal was hidden?
Regardless, as long as he could shatter the elemental crystal, the zombie’s vitality would be lost instantly because the energy provided to him by the elemental crystal would be gone, rendering him powerless.
Normally, the sharpness of the Obsidian dagger could easily crush the relatively fragile elemental crystal once the skin was cut open. But Zhang Mu had a feeling that if he forced it, the first thing to break would be his Obsidian dagger. The zombie monk’s elemental crystal was incredibly tough.
Just then, Long Er seemed to foresee something extremely terrifying, urgently shouting to Zhang Mu from not far away with a sharp voice, “Zhang Mu, move back quickly!”
He trusted Long Qi’s predictive ability. Since the Obsidian dagger didn’t pierce deep, Zhang Mu bent his legs, kicked the zombie monk’s back, and with the force of the rebound, quickly moved three meters away from the zombie monk.
As Zhang Mu moved away from the zombie monk’s body, the dried and cracked flesh on the zombie monk’s back suddenly tore apart, and large sharp bone spikes grew along his spine, piercing through his skin, oozing black blood, looking very fierce.
The zombie let out a loud roar, its body rising even taller, making Zhang Mu have to look up to see. Its previously thin body became grotesquely tall and abnormal.
Its eyes no longer had the human-like color from before but were filled with a killer instinct.
At that moment, Zhang Mu suddenly noticed that at the back of the giant corpse’s neck where Zhang Mu had just stabbed with the Obsidian dagger, the skin there was all exposed, revealing a pure white crystal.
However, that crystal didn’t look like any ordinary elemental crystal.
Could it be something else? But that location should only have elemental crystals. If it’s not an elemental crystal, what is providing this massive body with energy?
Just as Zhang Mu was puzzled, the zombie monk that had transformed into a giant corpse took its first steps.
The monk giant zombie seemed to have forgotten about Zhang Mu behind it and was now focusing on Long Er, as if it had locked onto her earlier presence, growling lowly as it prepared to lunge towards Long Er.
Zhang Mu couldn’t let it attack Long Er. Long Qi was still lying on the ground, his condition unknown. He had to deal with this mutated zombie himself.
He sneak attacked the side of the monk giant zombie from behind, unsure of the strength of its other body parts, and attempted once again to strike at the strange large crystal on its neck.
Just as Zhang Mu felt confident about a successful strike, he heard an urgent shout from Long Er. Without catching what was said, he quickly withdrew, sure that Long Er had foreseen something. He circled back in front of the monk giant zombie, holding the Obsidian dagger protectively in front of Long Er, watching its every move.
Long Er’s face was extremely pale at that moment. Zhang Mu could hear her heavy gasps in front of him. She must have exhausted herself using Minor Prophecy from earlier till now, with the constant changes in the future she foresaw adding a heavy burden to her predictions.
Finally, Zhang Mu heard Long Er struggling to breathe as he said, “Zhang Mu, I tried my best, I can’t hold on any longer. My ability to predict has reached its limit, I will fall into a coma if this continues.”
Zhang Mu took a deep breath, realizing that he would have to rely on himself for the upcoming battle.
When facing the giant zombie head-on, Zhang Mu took a sharp intake of breath, the change was too drastic.
The monk giant zombie had opened its chest, exposing all its ribs, resembling a gaping mouth with twisted and decaying organs inside, all stuck together and very disgusting to look at.
With each heavy step, the ground began to tremble as the giant zombie charged towards Zhang Mu and Long Er.
