Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me

Seeing that the zombie hadn't died, Elijah didn't hesitate. He didn't pull out the spear; it was better to keep it fixed in place.

How could the zombie dodge now?

He took off the short hammer hanging from his waist and smashed it towards the zombie's head.

Just one strike would be enough to smash its head to pieces like a watermelon.

However, just then, a cold light flashed! Elijah halted, narrowly avoiding it.

He looked closely and saw a grim white bone floating in mid-air.

The bone was short, about a foot long, pencil-thin, hollow, with both ends shaved off, forming sharp angles and tips.

It was this bone that had suddenly attacked Elijah, forcing him to dodge.

"Telekinesis?" Elijah suddenly realized.

No wonder this zombie could float in mid-air! And the resistance he felt just before piercing it should also have been this zombie's telekinesis blocking him.

However, its power was insignificant compared to that of Elijah, a power-awakened individual.

But even that tiny bit of resistance bought the zombie some time, allowing it to avoid a fatal injury.

Elijah glanced back at Daisy and saw that she had chopped off two of the five eyeballs, which were now wriggling on the ground, while the remaining three had retreated.

The mutated zombie didn't emerge, and Daisy didn't rashly pursue, but remained vigilant at the door. Elijah relaxed.

He switched to Abigail's defensive ability and focused all his attention on dealing with the zombie in front of him.

The bone spurs in the air kept changing positions, but no matter how they changed, they all aimed at Elijah's vital points!

Meanwhile, the mutated zombie pierced by the spear had been struggling, trying to break free.

But no matter how hard it struggled, it couldn't budge the spear firmly pinned to the wall.

Soon, it gave up struggling and stared at Elijah with its eyes fixed on him.

At the same time, another bone spur floated out behind it!

These two bone spurs were the companions that came with its advancement to the second tier—lightweight and sharp.

The price was that its body became extremely small, but it was also more convenient to use its abilities. If it had its original bulky body, it wouldn't be able to float.

With the mutated zombie's full exertion, the speed of the two bone spurs increased sharply.

Elijah squinted, focusing on the flight trajectory of the bone spurs.

Soon, he felt something was wrong. One bone spur flew out of his sight and landed behind him.

At that moment, the other bone spur came straight at him.

If he were on open ground, Elijah might have been able to dodge the two bone spurs coming at him from both directions.

But now he was in a narrow corridor, with hardly any room to dodge, let alone on the descending steps.

"Damn it! Let's do this!"

Elijah was determined! As the saying goes, capture the ringleader first!

Only by killing the mutated zombie could they resolve the crisis.

Otherwise, the longer it dragged on, the worse it would be for them!

Elijah crouched down, avoiding the bone spur in front of him.

Then he leaped forward suddenly, ignoring what was behind him, and dashed to the telekinetic zombie.

He swung the short hammer fiercely.

"Clang!" There was a sound of metal clashing, and a bone spur was knocked away by him.

Even without the boost from Lily's ability, his strength was not to be underestimated.

After the bone spur had minimal effect on him, there was a "puff" sound as Elijah smashed the telekinetic zombie's head with the short hammer, causing it to deflate like a balloon.

At the same time, Elijah felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. Another bone spur had pierced his shoulder.

Fortunately, with Abigail's defensive ability blocking it, and the telekinetic zombie dead, the bone spur, deprived of psychic support, only tore through his clothes due to momentum but couldn't penetrate his tough skin.

"Clang!" The bone spur fell to the ground, emitting a metallic clinking sound.

Elijah felt fine and quickly turned to look at Daisy.

Just then, the five-eyed zombie emerged as well. Its appearance was even more bizarre.

Lying on all fours like a wild beast, it is almost unrecognizable as a human being.Its head—or what could be called a head—had no facial features, only a huge mouth resembling a flower that constantly opened and closed.

Above the mouth were five blood-vessel-like structures hanging the five eyeballs seen earlier, now reduced to three.

The three eyes stared fixedly at Daisy as the flower-like mouth suddenly shot forward, aiming to bite her.

Elijah's heart tightened. He forcefully pulled out the spear, threw the telekinetic zombie's body to the ground, and rushed forward to assist Daisy.

Daisy was taken aback by how ugly the creature looked; its head could even shoot out like a turtle.

The foul-smelling flower-like mouth aimed straight for her waist. She could clearly see the circular rows of sharp teeth inside the flower-like mouth.

Daisy stepped back two steps and swung her Tang knife downward.

"Clang!" The Tang knife split open the outer flesh of the flower-like mouth, clashing with its teeth, resulting in a stalemate.

At that moment, Elijah arrived.

He thrust his spear downwards like a stick, smashing the zombie's neck onto the ground, causing its skin to split open.

Taking advantage of this, Daisy pulled back her Tang knife and slashed diagonally downward.

The flower-like mouth of the zombie immediately separated from its neck.

Elijah didn't relax. He was worried that the flower-like mouth might not be the weak point of this zombie anymore.

He continuously stabbed the zombie's body with the spear.

Dozens of holes were punctured in its body.

When he saw that the zombie's body no longer responded, he finally relaxed.

"What... what kind of monsters are these?" Daisy patted her chest, still trembling.

It wasn't that she was scared, but their appearances were just grotesque and repulsive.

Although the telekinetic zombie from earlier was smaller, its appearance was still relatively normal.

This one really shattered her worldview.

"This is also a mutated zombie," Elijah said, taking out a dagger and opening the position of the eyes on the flower-like mouth to search inside. "It's just that the degree of mutation during its advancement is quite extreme, not conforming to human aesthetics, but in the eyes of zombies, it might look good!"

"Wow! Abigail won't turn into this, right?"

"Um... I don't think so... Found it!" Elijah rummaged around with the knife for a while and finally found the corpse core.

He reached in and pulled it out from a pile of flesh, wiping it clean with a piece of paper.

A translucent orange crystal appeared in his hand.

"Wow, it's so beautiful, like a gem! But it's different from the previous corpse core!" Daisy exclaimed, marveling at the crystal in her hand.

"This is a second-tier corpse core!" Elijah said, his face filled with surprise.

He hadn't expected this creature to be a second-tier zombie.

But then he thought of the telekinetic zombie.

He walked over to the telekinetic zombie, dug into its brain, and quickly found another corpse core.

It was also an orange crystal, but much clearer than the one Daisy was holding, with a faint green light emanating from the center.

"This telekinetic zombie seems to be close to the third tier, right?" Elijah exclaimed in amazement.

He hadn't seen a third-tier corpse core, but that didn't stop him from making a guess. Just like the high-quality first-tier corpse core, it had a bright white color with a hint of orange light.

"No wonder it's so powerful!"

Elijah believed that if an ordinary ability user encountered a telekinetic zombie and a five-eyed zombie, they would definitely be in mortal danger.

It was only by relying on Daisy's stealth attack, Lily's powerful thrust, and Abigail's defensive resistance that they were able to kill it.

With this in mind, Elijah felt that his abilities were quite powerful! It seemed like he needed to collect more corpse cores, awaken more zombies, and gain more abilities!

Elijah was filled with anticipation for the future!
