The Soul System in the Apocalypse-Chapter 60: Combined Attack

Both Olivia and Henry moved in sync. With the swords in their hands, they also moved forward to clash with the zombie.

Bang! Clank!

The two swords collided with the fist that had been thrown forward by the zombie. But instead of cutting through it, the two swords produced a sound as if they had collided with another metal.

This surprised the two of them as they were forced to retreat backwards due to the sheer strength that was possessed by the zombie. Additionally, they could already feel their hands trembling, as it was obvious that they were the ones that had lost during this clash.

At this moment, both Henry and Olivia became solemn. They had not expected the chances of meeting with such a creature, especially for Henry.

In the information that he had received about the apocalypse, he was sure that it was supposed to go step by step, stronger creatures appearing during the later periods.

But now, although they believed that they were amongst the strongest humans present, they were actually facing a creature that even the two of them were having a rather difficult time to handle.

Just as the zombie was about to launch another attack on the two of them, the wolf jumped and slashed towards its back with its claws.

Surprisingly, the zombie was able to react by using one of its gigantic arms to swat away the wolf. The claw and the hand collided, and the wolf was forced to retreat.

At the same time, a serious light immediately appeared inside the eyes of the wolf. At this moment, it could already feel that it was at a big disadvantage when facing this creature in front of it.

Engulfed by an aura of grim, Henry, Olivia and the wolf knew that their combined strength would be necessary to overcome the formidable presence of the strange zombie in front of them.

Since they had fought together before, both Olivia and Henry understood each other a little. For that reason, as Henry moved forward, Olivia began summoning ice balls one after the other.

All of these were launched towards the zombie to distract it and attract its attention towards her. At the same time, she had already begun preparing to launch the three star skills that she possessed.

At the same moment, Henry was charging towards the zombie from the right. His speed was incredible, as he had began controlling the energy that was present in his body, to summon a fireball.

This was at 3 star skill. So, with the energy that Henry possessed, the size of the fireball had already exceeded five basketballs combined.

Just as the zombie was about to charge towards Olivia, its suddenly turned around and attacked the fireball.

Boom!

A loud explosion echoed in the air, as a cloud of dust heightened. And even before the dust of cloud could settle down, Olivia had already begun launching several ice beams towards the center.

Just as the two of them thought that they had at least dealt some damage on the zombie, they suddenly saw a silhouette moving out of the cloud of dust.

It was charging furiously towards Henry. It was obvious that the zombie had identified that it had to deal with at least one of them, if by any chance it wanted to deal with the situation completely.

But just before the zombie arrived in front of Henry, the wolf appeared out of nowhere, and knocked it to the side. It was also at this moment that Henry realized that the wolf possessed incredible strength.

As the zombie rolled onto the ground, before getting back on his feet, Henry noticed that there was actually a wound that had been formed by the wolf’s claws.

Additionally, there were some areas of the zombie’s body that had been scorched, while some other areas had been frozen.

Henry, his sword ablaze with fire, took the lead with a swift charge towards the zombie. The flames danced along the sharp edges of his Raging Fire Flood, casting a fiery glow that illuminated his path.

With a mighty swing, he cleaved through the air, aiming to sever the zombie’s arm. This time, Henry had utilized mountain splinter, a skill that was able to increase the sharpness of his sword.

The zombie reacted swiftly, and raised one of its hands to block the attack. The sword collided with the creature’s bony limb, scorching its decaying flesh with a searing impact.

At the same time, a deep cut mark was formed on the hand, but still, the sword was not able to penetrate into the bone of the zombie.

Roar!

The zombie roared in anger, as it attempted attacking Henry. But at this moment, Henry had already retreated. He knew that he wasn’t the zombies match when it came to raw strength. But still, he thankfully possessed several skills.

Simultaneously, Olivia moved with calculated precision. Her icy blade shimmered with frigid energy, glinting in the dim light. She leaped gracefully, twirling through the air, her sword slicing through the space occupied by the zombie’s leg.

At the same time, she used the ice age skill. As her weapon made contact, a surge of ice magic surged forth, encasing the zombie’s leg in a crippling frozen grasp, immobilizing it momentarily.

Additionally, the surrounding 100 m had been frozen into an ice land. Thankfully, both Henry and the storm wolf had retreated. Additionally, Henry had enveloped himself with fire, preventing the cold air from freezing him.

This was all thanks to the control that he possessed after spending 1 hour inside the system space. He was now able to control the energy in his body much better.

Seizing this opportune moment, the wolf pounced upon the prone zombie, its fangs seeking to shut down its relentless onslaught.

Even though the zombie was not capable of moving its leg, it was not completely immobilized. So, it reacted quickly and tried swatting away the wolf.

However, this time, the speed of the wolf was so incredible, that even the zombie was not able to catch up with it.

Clamping down on the zombie’s exposed torso, the wolf’s powerful jaws punctured its decaying flesh, causing a hideous combination of agonized growls and moans from its vile form.

Although it was true that the zombie could not feel pain, it was actually angered by the fact that it was having its body being destroyed by a puny low-level creature.

Even though the wolf had succeeded in its attack, it failed to retreat on time, and so, it was hit by one of the hands of the zombie. The incredible strength that was in that attack sent the wolf flying several meters away before landing on the ground heavily.

The wolf had been injured, but thankfully, the injury was not enough to keep the wolf helpless on the ground.

Just as the zombie was about to try and release itself, Henry attacked again. Since they were depending on the ice to immobilize the zombie, he could not utilize fire. However, he could still use the sword skills.

One after the other, several swords began appearing in the air. And in the next moment, they all charged towards the zombie.

The zombie managed to extract itself from the ice, but it was also at this moment that a barrage of swords suddenly landed on it. Although they possessed only 50% of Henry’s total damage, nonetheless, being attacked continuously was definitely causing much damage to the zombie.

Roar!

The zombie roared furiously, as it tried to swat away the swords. But still, the barrage of swords continued raining on it. It was only after a minute or so, that the swords finally disappeared.

Several cut wounds had already appeared on the zombie’s body. At the same time, filthy blood had already began leaking onto the ground, generating a smell like that of a rotten corpse.

With each member of the trio engaged in their attacks, their combined assault proved to be a whirlwind of coordinated chaos. While the zombie was momentarily disoriented by the simultaneous strikes, Henry, Olivia, and the wolf worked in perfect harmony to amplify their forces.

The coordination between Henry and Olivia had improved greatly. During this moment, they actually didn’t even for once launch fire and ice attacks at the same time.

Channeling his energy, Henry conjured a rain of arrows above the zombie, enveloping it in flames. The viscous fire licked at its rotting body, scorching with relentless intensity.

...

While the fight against the zombie was still persisting, Adam and Sarah on the other hand had already begun getting troubled.

It was true that the zombies they faced were weaker than them and for that reason, it was not a problem for them to easily massacre them. However, the problem came with the fact that they were large in numbers.

So, no matter how fierce the two of them attacked, there were some zombies that still managed to pass by them. And these zombies immediately charged towards the battlefield where an intense fight was still ongoing.

At first, Adam wanted to retreat and attack them, to ensure that those zombies didn’t cause trouble to those that were in a serious battlefield, but he was surprised by what happened next.

The gigantic zombie that was already furious was the one that attacked the group of zombies that had gone over. That zombie was already angered that it charged to destroy anything that was living in its surroundings.

Other than that, the zombies that attempted to attack both Henry and Olivia were easily neutralized. Additionally, the shockwave that was being produced by the fight was able to kill several zombies that had managed to reach near them.

’It seems that we have to deal with this creature as fast as possible. Otherwise, we are going to attract a large group of zombies here, and we will be forced to move to another area.’ Henry thought to himself as he grimly stared at the zombie that was still attacking the group of zombies that had gone over.

The next moment, he rushed forward. At this moment, he had completely disregarded defense, and was aiming towards making sure that he dealt a fatal blow to the zombies.
