I really don't know how this monster in Building One evolved into what it is now...
Recalling the last encounter, Lu Chuan felt a bit nauseated by the bloody, hideous appearance of the opponent.
Even if you're a zombie, at least you should have a human presence.
In the end, that bloody monster was almost unrecognizable as a person from its past life...
Last time, being instantly headshot by this monster, Lu Chuan came prepared this time, feeling somewhat confident.
"I want to see if you can withstand my Axe Gang, monster!"
Lu Chuan still remained in Building Five, concentrating on controlling the Corpse Puppet team.
Now, his telepathic range is three kilometers, eliminating the need to be on the battlefield personally.
What's more, the zombie is so terrifying, Lu Chuan didn't think he could withstand it in close combat...
So hiding at home is the safest bet.
Lu Chuan remotely controlled ten Corpse Puppets, entering the gate of a building, and started checking room by room from the first floor.
Lu Chuan wasn't in a rush, conducting the inspection very cautiously, afraid of missing a single corner.
Especially the ceilings, Lu Chuan paid special attention to any traces.
After all, the structure of this blood-colored mutant monster's evolved body is very bizarre.
Discarding the human form for combat, it gained limbs with claws and powerful physical strength, allowing it to move quickly between walls and ceilings.
As Lu Chuan slowly searched, the Corpse Puppets inspected inch by inch.
Soon they finished searching four floors, but still didn't find the trace of the blood-colored monster.
Lu Chuan frowned, "Four continuous floors without seeing it, could this Bloodthirsty Monster have fled early?"
Soon, the Corpse Puppet team reached the fifth floor, continuing their cautious search indoors.
However, they didn't notice the blood-colored monster right above the door when they entered the room.
Four claws were embedded like steel blades into the wall, lying on top of the door like a spider without a sound.
Its vicious eyes were fixated on the Corpse Puppets below.
The monster's position was very tricky, precisely in the blind spot of the Corpse Puppets' sight.
After all, Lu Chuan was remotely controlling the Corpse Puppets, and could only share their vision, making it impossible to observe as directly as if he were there.
"Where on earth did this monster go? Surely it hasn't run out of this building!"
Lu Chuan couldn't help but worry; this blood-colored monster was very difficult to deal with.
If it escapes Building One and hides in the shadows, the danger level increases significantly. It's definitely a top-tier killer zombie.
Swish!
Just then, a sound of something breaking through the air rang out, and a blood-colored figure suddenly dropped from above.
Bang!
As the blood-colored monster swung its claws, a nearby zombie Corpse Puppet was heavily struck, sent flying, crashing hard on the ground.
Fortunately, Lu Chuan was prepared, equipping all these zombies with full-cover helmets.
The motorcycle helmet was almost ripped in half, and the head of the Corpse Puppet was nearly crushed completely.
However, thanks to the helmet, the Corpse Puppet wasn't entirely dead and could still fight back.
Lu Chuan immediately reacted, swiftly controlling the Corpse Puppets to turn around, swinging their fire axes at the blood-colored figure.
The powerful axes sliced through the air, making a whistling sound.
If Ji Ruxue were present, she would instantly recognize the zombie species before her.
It was one of the Licker zombies from her previous life's memory, which caused massive casualties among human survivors in the early apocalypse!
The bloody Licker appeared to be enraged by the Corpse Puppet squad invading its territory.
Facing the swinging axes, it didn't care and continued attacking the Corpse Puppets.
Seeing this, Lu Chuan's lips curled into a cold smile; a zombie is still a zombie, no matter how it evolves, it's useless without evolving the brain.
The Corpse Licker moved swiftly, maneuvering among the Corpse Puppets.
The terrifying claws swung, and several zombies were slapped away.
However, under Lu Chuan's command, the Corpse Puppets continued attacking as long as their heads weren't crushed.
Even if their bodies were pierced, the axes would swing down directly.
Splutch!
The Licker pierced through a Corpse Puppet's body with a claw, but Lu Chuan controlled the Corpse Puppet to embrace the Licker's claw firmly.
Without hesitation, it swung an axe down on its head.
Several Corpse Puppets also charged with their fire axes, continuously swinging their blades.
Though the Licker was incredibly fast, being surrounded by the Corpse Puppets, it struggled to dodge the continuous strikes, getting hit several times.
During this time, Lu Chuan trained not only his close combat skills but also practiced slashing techniques with axes.
To maximize the Corpse Puppets' combat effectiveness, Lu Chuan specifically studied some axe-swinging techniques.
To make his Corpse Puppet team wield axes more swiftly.
Lu Chuan even controlled several Corpse Puppets to attempt consecutive strikes on the same spot of the blood-colored monster.
After all, the monster's muscles looked really solid.
Lu Chuan knew that relying on the combat power of low-tier Corpse Puppets alone, injuring it seriously was unlikely.
But fortunately, he relied on swarm tactics, not solo fights.
Sure enough, under Lu Chuan's control, the persistent slashing inflicted numerous wounds on the Licker.
However, just as Lu Chuan expected, the Licker's muscles were very well-developed.
With only the strength of ordinary zombies, the fire axe could only bring out some flesh, unable to inflict serious damage.
Lu Chuan immediately controlled three Corpse Puppets, directing all axes at one spot.
Splutch!
The three-axe assault finally worked, and with the last Corpse Puppet's fire axe swing, the Licker couldn't dodge in time and lost an arm.
After losing an arm, the Licker finally realized the fierceness of the zombie squad before it, completely leaping out of the Corpse Puppets and climbing onto the ceiling.
Lu Chuan immediately commanded the Corpse Puppets to throw their fire axes at the ceiling.
Bang bang bang!
But unfortunately, after escaping the Corpse Puppets' encirclement, the Licker's speed became extremely fast.
However, the low-tier Corpse Puppets' speed, strength, and accuracy plummeted under Lu Chuan's control.
The Licker reacted quickly, dodging the axes before smashing the window glass and escaping outside.
Lu Chuan's pupils contracted, watching through the Corpse Puppets' vision, seeing the blood-colored monster scaling the building's exterior wall as if walking on flat ground!
Moreover, its movements were so fast that it vanished in the blink of an eye!
