The Soul System in the Apocalypse-Chapter 71: Encountering a Mutated Zombie

At this moment, a big creature suddenly appeared in front of them. Its gray eyes stared at them with hunger. And as it began approaching, it released several groans.

The group had never encountered a creature like the one that they were seeing in front of them, even though they had already seen several types of monsters that had attacked the previous day.

The creature was just like a normal zombie. It was just that, unlike the other zombies that had several parts of their bodies that had already began rotting, the one in front of them had actually a ’fair’ skin.

The clothes that It was putting on were quite torn in some parts, and they were stained with blood. It was obvious that this creature had already encountered either monsters or humans, and had already dealt with them.

"Everyone retreat. We don’t know anything about the creature in front of us, so it is better if we can avoid engaging with it." The captain of the team said, as the group continuously backed away.

Thankfully, the creature had not come from the door. Otherwise, they would have had no place to retreat from.

But, as the group continued to retreat, the creature in front of them also started following them. At the same time, it didn’t seem to be in a hurry to deal with them at all.

Jasmine’s eyes focused on the creature in front of her, but at the same time, using her peripheral vision, she was looking at the carts that they had already loaded with food.

She really wanted to take the food away, but, she knew that the situation that they were currently in did not allow it. After all, it was not only that the creature In front of them was actually strange, but there was also a fact that the air being emitted by the creature in front of them was a way powerful than any other creature that they had encountered all this time.

For that reason, even though they might actually not be able to take away the food that they had already been prepared to ferry back, at least, this was not the only store or shop that had food in it. They could as well go to other stores.

Roar!

A deep roar suddenly came from the creature’s mouth. In the next moment, it launched forward. The speed of this zombie was so fast that the group could not actually even follow its movements.

By the time that they were beginning to react, the zombie had already arrived in front of one of the men. And in the next moment, it bit down on his neck.

"Aaah!" The man screamed in pain, and horror, as he felt the flesh of his nake actually being torn apart.

The zombie pulled away its head, and gripping on its teeth it, there was several pieces of flesh that were from the man’s neck.

The man dropped onto the ground while convulsing, at the same time, he looked at the zombie in horror. He really wanted to scream for help, but his trachea had also been torn apart.

"Everyone shoot. Shoot all of you We cannot match this creature using the weapons that we are holding." It was only after a few breaths had gone by that the captain finally reacted.

Crackle!

But even before the group reacted, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck towards the zombie. The thickness of the lightning was like that of a newborn’s arm, it was extremely thick.

Bam!

The lightning landed on the body of the zombie, but surprisingly, there was completely no effect. It was as if the lightning had been absorbed by its body.

Jasmine’s eyes widened in surprise. This was the first time that she was actually attacking something, but, her attack had no effect at all. But even so, she did not stop attacking.

Bang! Bang! Da! Da! Da!

At this moment, the other man also reacted. Quickly, they all took out the guns that they had been carrying with them, and began shooting towards the zombie.

From pistols to rifles, none of the men cared about attracting a group of zombies here, as they continuously shot towards the creature in front of them.

But just as they were attacking, suddenly, the zombie also made a move. And in the next moment, the zombie’s figure blurred.

It was true that the bullets that they were shooting were fast, but, the people that were shooting were not first enough to be able to control their trajectory of the bullets that was spewing out of the muzzles of the guns.

Aaah!

Just as the group was trying to follow up with the zombie, they suddenly heard a scream. And then the next moment, they realized that the zombie had already arrived in the middle of the group.

The group was first to stop firing the bullets considering that they would end up in a friendly fire. So, they took out their weapons, and again started attacking the zombie that had already bitten down one of the men’s neck.

As for the one who had been previously bitten, his body had already began convulsing, as changes began appearing on his body. It was obvious that he had already begun transforming into a zombie.

This was just actually the terror of the zombies. As long as a person was killed by the zombies, and was not eaten, that person would also become a zombie. Even though the zombies were weak, with the increase of the number of humans that they were killing, they were also increasing the number of zombies.

Bam! Splinter!

One of the men who was holding a baseball bat directly hit the zombie’s head. But instead of the result that he had been expecting where the zombie’s head would be broken, the baseball bat that he was holding in his hand suddenly broke into several splinters. freewёbnoνel.com

Before the man could even get surprised, the zombie that had just been interrupted when it was having its meal suddenly turned around. Its mouth had already been covered by blood, making it look even more horrifying.

The man Instinctively wanted to retreat, but, the zombie did not give him a chance as it launched forward. Just like always, it aimed towards the neck.

But before the zombie could even reach the man, another bolt of lightning suddenly fell upon it. And it was not just that, there was even a fireball that was launched.

But nonetheless, none of the attacks managed to stop the zombie from reaching the man. And just like always, it bit on his neck, before beginning to suck on his blood.

The man panicked and tried several times to kick away the zombie, but no matter how hard he tried, the zombie was sticking to him like it had been pieced onto him with super glue.

The others also tried attacking, but no matter how hard they struggled, the zombie would always bite one person, before attacking the next one.

The captain immediately realized that they were completely helpless in front of this zombie. Additionally, all those that had been bitten by the zombie were also beginning to transform into zombies.

"Retreat! Everyone retreat!" Even though he was saying this, he was actually sad from the fact that several of his men had actually died here. Additionally, there were even some of them that were still alive on the ground, but since they had already been bitten by the zombie, there was no way that they were going to survive.

Jasmine wasn’t willing to abandon anyone. For that reason, even after the captain had issued the retreat order, she did not stop attacking.

When the captain realized this, he immediately went forward and pulled her backwards. "This is just how the apocalypse is Miss Jasmine. We have to retreat right now, rather than continuing to lose more people." The captain said in a gloomy voice, as he continuously pulled Jasmine towards the entrance.

Even though Jasmine was currently unwilling, she had no choice. After all, her attacks had landed on the creature, but no matter how many times it landed on it, there was actually no damage that was dealt on it.

With reddened eyes, Jasmine forced herself not to shed tears. All of these people had been together with her family for a long time, and she had always been taking them as part of their family. And now, she was forced to witness as they were killed one after the other.

Added to the fact that she had just recently lost her mother, the grief that Jasmine was currently undergoing was so high. It was just that, she knew this was not the time and the place to cry.

As the group continued to retreat, the zombie also began following them. And no matter how fast they moved, considering the fact that they had already been tired and hadn’t gotten much chance to rest, the group was not able to leave the zombie behind.

And as they continued to retreat, they continuously shot towards the zombie. But just like before, their attacks were futile.

And in just a matter of about 3 minutes after they had left the building, more than half of them had already been killed. Even though everyone was angry and sad at that time, there was nothing that they could do.

Had It been a normal time, even if they would have lost their partners and brothers, perhaps they might be given a chance of burying them. But now, they were not even given a chance of burying their bodies, as all of them turned into zombies.

The zombie was just about to attack another man when suddenly, its pupils abruptly shrunk. In the next moment, it retreated in a hurry, timely evading a large battle axe.

After dodging the attack, the zombie looked towards the side. There, it noticed that there were two people that were approaching steadily.
