“What are you talking about? Move away from the window, don't let the zombies below notice us.”
Behind her, the nagging voice of a woman followed.
“Really, it just happened in the direction of the explosion sound, good for their souls, a high monk must be liberating them from suffering, so they won't be in pain anymore.” The girl continued to look outside.
The equally disheveled middle-aged woman, following the direction of the other's gaze, looked towards the distance.
The empty sky.
There were no souls to be seen.
Occasionally, one could see a couple of Bone Dragons circling in the distance.
“Stop talking nonsense, it's frightening.”
“Mom, were the ones who brought us food last time these kinds of Bone Dragons?” the daughter asked again, looking into the distance.
The mother pulled most of the curtain closed, leaving only a slit to see the outside scene.
“It's similar, I hid far away and caught a glimpse last time, but I'm not sure if it was that kind of Flying Dragon.”
The daughter tilted her head and thought, “Could it be the people from Xinfu City, fighting zombies over there and then liberating the souls?”
“How could that be, killing zombies is not that simple. Rescue teams can't even get in, let alone those civilian bases.”
“But, they're the only ones who have brought us food, and all those things you mentioned, they just shout slogans on the radio every day.” The daughter argued.
“They will come to rescue us, the radio said they are organizing military forces.”
The daughter pondered again, “I feel like we should go out and have a look. The zombies were drawn away by the battle in the distance, it should be pretty safe.”
“If we go downstairs and encounter even a single zombie, we won't come back; it won't be something you can fix with a couple of cold pills.” The mother said.
“But–”
“We'll talk about it later, we still need to be cautious.”
As the mother and daughter spoke, the radio behind them emitted a grating static noise, followed by intermittent, faint voices.
“This is the Xinfu City rescue team, we have arrived at Iron North Commercial Street, and we have cleared the surrounding zombies. Nearby survivors can move towards us. When coming over, you will see Skeletons, those are our soldiers, please do not make any attacks or provoke them to avoid unnecessary casualties.”
The mother and daughter whipped around.
Surprise was evident in their eyes.
It really was the Xinfu City base; they had truly come into the city to rescue people.
Commercial Street thoroughfare.
The battle between Skeletons and zombies was over.
The Ghosts wandering in the sky were hunted down and devoured one by one by Xiao Xiao and Glenda.
When the last Ghost was absorbed.
[Ghost level has increased to 15, Constitution +2, Intelligence +3.]
[Ghost unlocks trait: Paranormal Phenomenon.]
Glenda had leveled up to 15.
By level, she had reached the third tier.
Wu Heng opened the Ghost panel and took a look at the newly appeared trait [Paranormal Phenomenon].
[Paranormal Phenomenon]: In the areas where the Ghost lingers, it can 'actively' affect the five senses of nearby living beings, causing them to experience strange noises, cold seeping into a hall with blazing fire, the stench of death permeating a clean room, or corpses crawling out of graves. The Ghost can control the type according to the corresponding scene.
Wu Heng looked at the newly appeared trait, his brow slightly furrowed.
From the description, it seemed more like an enhancement of a Ghost's fantasy.
It affected the senses of living beings, whether it was strange noises, cold seeping into a hall with a roaring fire, or the stench of decay in a clean room.
It was an influence on hearing, vision, and smell.
That's not to say it was useless.
It seemed mainly for scaring people.
The professionals in the Otherworld were very sensitive to changes in their surroundings, and if something like this happened, it would make them even more alert.
So its usefulness was not that great.
It might be fine for frightening ordinary people, but scaring people didn't seem all that useful.
We'll see later if there's anywhere it can be useful.
“Uncle, they're all gone.” Xiao Xiao flew down.
With this upgrade.
Xiao Xiao had also reached level 13.
Although there was a big difference in the levels between the two Ghosts before, now the gap was widening.
“Wait for next time, you guys need to rest as well.” Wu Heng said.
“Okay.” Xiao Xiao replied, then rested on his shoulder, “Uncle, did you see me killing in all directions just now? I was never this amazing even when I was in kindergarten.”
“What, did you guys have a 'killing in all directions' at kindergarten?”
“No, I mean just playing with the kids.” Xiao Xiao drifted to the other side, “But I was really great today.”
Glenda added, “Xiao Xiao, you were indeed amazing today.”
“Hehe,” Xiao Xiao giggled.
As they talked, Skeletons dragged various corpses over.
Evolved Zombies and Mutated Zombies were lined up in front of them.
Wu Heng converted them one by one, then collected the dropped Corpse Cores.
After converting the Evolved Zombies and Mutated Zombies, they continued down the road releasing [Battleground of Remains] to convert all the corpses into Skeletons.
The whole street was filled, as dense and endless as a sea of skeletons.
“Qi Hancai, tell the convoy to come over, let's plunder the nearby shops.” Wu Heng pressed the walkie-talkie.
“Roger that!”
The convoy started up behind him, making its way through the path cleared by the Skeleton troops.
They pulled up alongside, and a large group of survivors got out of the vehicles and began to loot the shops along the way.
They took the important items, carrying them away first.
The survivors got busy.
Qi Hancai walked over from the rear of the convoy, “We've got 13 survivors, all from various shelters nearby. The food distribution last time did have an effect. Hearing it was our convoy, they all came over.”
Wu Heng turned to look towards the rear of the convoy.
At the tail of the vehicles, quite a few people were gathered.
Men and women, ragged as if they had emerged from the wilderness, lined up to receive some of the flatbread and freshwater brought by the convoy.
