Black Snake Hand chuckled and said, "Surprised? Or what did you think, why would I be here."
Chen Tiannan was stunned, and suddenly found the remaining quarter of the mask familiar, capable of covering only one eye, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
Back in District Thirteen, there was also a masked person. That person’s identity was unknown, but they should be dead, killed by the widespread outbreak of pollution.
"Have you been to District Thirteen?" Chen Tiannan inquired.
Black Snake Hand smiled without answering, waving a single hand, "Embrace death peacefully, the Nameless Lord will remember you."
He spoke words of mystery.
Four black shades launched attacks on the surrounding people, bodies of those touched became rigid and cold, then collapsed to the ground twitching uncontrollably, their gaze turning hollow, as if... their souls had been drained.
Feeling the threat, Chen Tiannan turned and ran back, shouting, "Retreat! We’re not their match! Retreat!"
The Divine Inheritance grants Extraordinary beings a certain Divinization Ability.
The Divinization Ability continuously grows and strengthens over time; it may not seem significant at first, but becomes more perverse with time.
Watching the people fleeing around, Black Snake Hand’s face beamed with a wider grin, reveling in the sight of others fleeing in panic, fear, terror, and despair, all kinds of negative emotions flooding towards him, making him extraordinarily excited, lifting him out of that dreary state.
He loved this feeling!
...
Su Changxing didn’t notice initially, but quickly realized that those Extraordinary beings were up to something. A man in a leather coat was luring the Tentacle Monster towards the direction of the undead tide.
"Do you have to make things difficult for me, can’t you fight your own battles?"
Su Changxing was ready to watch from the sidelines, even having beef jerky prepared, pants off, only to be shown this.
Though the undead tide had been somewhat strengthened, it surely wouldn’t block the Tentacle Monster, whose status would still be of food, even more delectable.
He naturally wouldn’t stand idly by, if the undead tide suffered too many losses, it would greatly impact his strength.
Across several kilometers, Su Changxing controlled the undead tide to retreat, like a receding tidal wave, leaving only the empty street in a blink.
Mo Qingyan was dumbfounded by this scene, completely unexpected that the undead tide would flee proactively. According to plan, the Tentacle Monster was to be lured in to wear down the undead tide’s numbers, while coaxing out those lunatics.
Then unfolded a peculiar scene, the Tentacle Monster chasing Mo Qingyan, Mo Qingyan chasing the undead tide, a massive horde of zombies sprinting across the street.
A large wolfdog was gnawing on a carcass on the ground, only to look up and see a massive horde of zombies darting across the neighboring street. It blinked, pondering why zombies could run so fast, yet before it could come to a conclusion, it sensed an ominous tremor, with the gigantic Tentacle Monster appearing in the distance.
Instinctively, it too started running, following behind the undead tide.
The undead tide’s speed was the slowest among the three, due to the over ten kilometers distance, it wasn’t caught up right away.
"This undead tide is indeed different, runs faster than expected."
Mo Qingyan said holding back his breath, feeling immense pressure with the Tentacle Monster chasing closely behind, even noticing slight contamination in his mind, faint illusions appearing before his eyes. He took pink powder from his pocket and swallowed it to suppress the contamination.
Unexpectedly.
He noticed the undead tide’s movement speed further accelerated in the distance, such a change was abrupt.
"Why is it getting even faster!" he couldn’t help but complain, thinking the horde of zombies ahead was running like they’re flying, likely even surpassing ordinary Tier Nine Extraordinary beings, "Are they ascending to the heavens?"
Feeling the monster behind about to catch up, he gritted his teeth, accelerating once more.
Su Changxing further enhanced the marching speed during this process.
Marching Speed v5—Marching Speed v6
Marching Speed v6: The undead tide moves faster, each Zombie in the tide has their speed increased by 35%, agility increased by 35%, and resilience increased by 35%.
However.
This level of enhancement couldn’t prevent the undead tide from being caught.
Mo Qingyan crashed into the undead tide with the Tentacle Monster, encountering a half-human tall, extremely fast Zombie lunging at him.
Its speed was too fast.
He failed to react immediately, getting crashed into by the Zombie, then throwing it off only afterwards, two scratch marks appeared on his arm, his speed of movement hindered, and was caught up by the Tentacle Monster behind.
Fortunately, upon crashing into the undead tide, the Tentacle Monster’s attention dispersed, cheerfully gobbling up the Zombies within with its tentacles.
Just like the Big Horn, it was purely a devourer.
Mo Qingyan broke into cold sweat, narrowly avoiding a sweeping tentacle with a big leap.
Immediately.
Three or four Extraordinary Zombies lunged at him from the side, they were speed-type Extraordinary Zombies, with the backing of the zombie frenzy, their speed had a qualitative leap, not losing to some Tier Eight creatures.
Mo Qingyan struck one away with a spear, dodged another, but then collided head-on with one, severely disrupting the landing of his jump from expectations, plunging into the undead tide.
Su Changxing naturally had no plans to spare him, daring to provoke him had to bear the corresponding consequences.
He divided the undead tide in two, one small part to stall that Extraordinary being, while the other withdrew, to avoid being completely devoured by the Tentacle Monster, this thing is way fiercer than any lizard.
