Chapter 1388: Chapter 1383 Characteristics

Several newly arrived Order Protectors didn’t waste words; they each drew the knives in their hands and charged towards Li Man!

But in the next instant, a whip, whistling through the air with a ’whoosh whoosh whoosh,’ lashed out, coiling around the neck of one Order Protector and yanking him towards the handle of the whip!

Immediately after, a loud disturbance came from the direction of the elevator shaft, making everyone feel the ground beneath their feet tremble violently. Yu Jianghui leaped out from the shaft, glanced at the chaos around him, holding a flashlight he obtained from god knows where, and turned it on to shine it upwards into the elevator shaft.

Having done all this, Yu Jianghui casually placed the flashlight on the ground, looked towards Li Man, and with a shudder of his body, he charged towards the remaining four Order Protectors who were also attacking Li Man.

"Pretty fast, zombie bro, hang in there for a bit."

"Why are you so late?"

"Who the hell knows what’s happening with you, we were worried we might hit someone from above."

"Fuck off! Hurry up!"

Li Man roared, his tentacles thrashing wildly. The several tentacles that had been severed by the Order Protectors regenerated swiftly and, under his control, combined into a huge bud, attempting to block the four Order Protectors’ assault!

Boom!

The bud burst open, scattering copious amounts of blood and flesh, and even as a Level 8 zombie, Li Man couldn’t withstand the force of the four Order Protectors’ combined attack. Like the Order Protector he had smashed away, he was slammed into the wall and vanished from Yu Jianghui’s sight.

"Something’s not right with this shit!"

From the hole in the wall made by Li Man, his voice emanated, and Yu Jianghui’s eyebrows also furrowed. As the four Order Protectors collided with the bud made from Li Man’s tentacles, Yu Jianghui realized there was something different about these four; they were not like the Order Protectors he usually saw.

It wasn’t their appearance that was different, but the strength they could unleash was now almost equivalent to that of a normal Level 8 New Human!

He quickly split his double-bladed knife in his hand. He had given these two knives a very auspicious name; one was called Smooth Sailing, and the other, Victory at the Outset.

He aimed at one of the Order Protectors and threw the Victory at the Outset in his hand. With the strength of a Level 8 New Human bolstering it, the knife flew straight and true, precisely clashing with the blade in that Order Protector’s hand, while Yu Jianghui himself charged at another Order Protector.

"Hurry the fuck up and come out, or I’m done for!"

All four Order Protectors turned their attention to Yu Jianghui, and the pressure previously on Li Man was now transferred to him. He couldn’t help but roar towards where Li Man had been sent flying.

"Got it, boss. I’ll be having a feast later if I’m late."

"Go to hell!"

Li Man’s figure, composed entirely of tentacles, reappeared. One of his tentacles touched a spot on the ground, uncertain where to place his Evolution Crystal.

New Humans feared making a mistake in battle as much as zombies did. Li Man was most afraid of his Evolution Crystal being fortuitously struck by an opponent.

Therefore, he envied those among them who could separate and hide their Evolution Crystals in a certain place.

But now was not the time for contemplation. His severed tentacles had regenerated, and he lashed out at the Order Protectors who were in a standoff with Yu Jianghui.

Violent gusts surged throughout the space, countless pieces of undefined research equipment were destroyed. The battle raged on, and soon another loud explosion echoed in the elevator shaft, with a splash of water, Bai Huipeng climbed out from the elevator. After scanning the surroundings, he shone a flashlight upwards, signaling that it was safe for others to come down.

Then, Bai Huipeng picked up his weapon and joined the fray. However, he quickly realized that there was something off about the combat strength of these Order Protectors. He had fought with Order Protectors before and knew the difference between them and New Humans.

Their combat strength was weaker than that of a regular New Human. Under normal circumstances, if a Level 8 New Human were to battle a Level 8 Order Protector, there was a high chance that the Level 8 New Human would come out victorious.

Aside from the first Order Protector who had fought with Li Man, the strength of each of the other Order Protectors present could be compared to that of a regular Level 8 Powerhouse, and in some aspects, they were even stronger than their counterparts.

Bai Huipeng observed carefully and noticed some physical differences between the Order Protectors engaged in battle with Li Man and Yu Jianghui and another whose face was completely deformed.

Previously, Order Protectors looked almost like normal people, but these had a silver line around their necks, looping halfway.

His figure turned into a streak of lightning, his blade creating a flurry of strikes, splitting one of the Order Protectors from Li Man and Yu Jianghui, significantly reducing their pressure!

But Bai Huipeng’s arrival wasn’t the end of it. A series of loud sounds continued to emanate from the direction of the elevator shaft, and more and more powerhouses hurried over. The Order Protectors, who initially had the upper hand, were quickly put at a disadvantage, especially after Su Sigui entered the fray. The Order Protectors were decisively defeated, being slain one by one!

Without the need for Tang Ye to act personally, a half-dead Order Protector and five others with silver lines on their necks all fell to the relentless assault.

Tang Ye had been paying close attention to Su Sigui. As he watched the battle come to an end, his eyebrows twitched. He now had a clear understanding of Su Sigui’s combat strength—every attack was swift and precise, like that of an experienced veteran, timing every movement and detail correctly to land a lethal blow!

"I underestimated her," Tang Ye muttered to himself. Su Sigui’s performance meant that unless he sent the more unique individuals from his zombie horde, the zombies like Xu Haishui, Li Man, Ha Zhen would all stand a high chance of being defeated and killed in a one-on-one battle with Su Sigui, without a chance to escape.

Not to mention Bai Huipeng and Huang Quanjiu, these Level 8 New Humans. Su Sigui was now evidently stronger than when she first fought Tang Ye.

If she was also a Level 9, and it came to the day when they had to cross swords in earnest, Tang Ye might have to prepare for a hasty retreat.

To be honest, he felt a little displeased, but considering she was a transmigrator, everything made sense. It seems like fighting beyond one’s level is a characteristic of such individuals, right?
