Zone Zero: I'm invincible now that the heavenly fire has killed Nineveh!

Soon, the group arrived at another gathering place of skeletons.

There were about three hundred of them, more than double the number of the beast-like skeletons we had just encountered.

"If you can't win, don't be stubborn. Just run away with me."

Ies hid again, but before she did, she reminded Su Chen.

"Don't worry, no one knows how to survive better than me."

Su Chen said confidently.

He still held two pistols, engaging in two-man tactics with Ambi back to back.

Amidst the barrage of gunfire and flashing lightning blades, the horde of corpses fell one by one.

Within minutes, only two-thirds of the skeletons remained.

Centered on Su Chen and An Bi, a clearing with a diameter of ten meters was actually created, and no one could get close.

Under Su Chen's firepower, the remaining two hundred or so Yi Hai appeared timid and hesitant, as if they were afraid.

Actually, that's not the case. The lower-level skeletons don't have that kind of fear; they're just suppressed by the firepower and can't advance an inch.

As long as the firepower blockade is removed, they will still rush in like a tide.

They fired dozens more bullets, reducing the number of skeletons to about 150.

Su Chen estimated that he had used up about two hundred rounds of ammunition, so he stopped firing and pretended that his firepower was insufficient.

As soon as the firepower disappeared, the skeletons immediately surrounded them.

"Out of bullets, huh?"

"Ambition asked calmly."

"Ah."

Su Chen nodded gently.

He could certainly keep firing with unlimited ammo, but he couldn't go too far in the video.

Anbi subtly stepped forward, shielding Su Chen behind her: "Should we retreat?"

She didn't know how good Su Chen's swordsmanship was, so she had to protect him first.

"No need, I can manage."

Su Chen casually put the two guns back into their holsters and pulled out the [Thunder Fang] that Anbi had given him.

Its attributes are the same as Ambition's Raizan-tō, but its form is a long-handled sword similar to the Tang Hengdao. The handle is 20 cm long and the blade is 150 cm long, making it a heavy-handled sword.

In the brief moment he drew his sword, several skeletons rushed over.

It seemed that because Su Chen had shot and killed most of the skeletons earlier, they rushed up like madmen after Su Chen lost his firepower.

Even with Ambhi holding off the enemy, three more Mukuro charged forward simultaneously.

"Did you think I couldn't kill you without a gun?"

Su Chen gripped the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands, coldly watching Yi Hai attack.

He suddenly took a step forward, exerted force with both palms, and swung his long sword out instantly.

In an instant, a cold light with lightning patterns flashed by.

The moment the skeletons lunged at them, the blades sliced ​​through their bodies.

Pfft!

Like a hot knife slicing through butter, [Raiya] pierced through the body of the three-headed skeleton without a moment's pause.

thump!

From the top left to the bottom right, the three bones were divided into six pieces and fell to the ground.

The whole process was as fast as lightning. Anbi only saw a flash of white light in the corner of her eye before the three-headed Yihai was dead.

That much power?

Anbi was somewhat surprised. She knew that Su Chen was physically fit when she saw him do a 720-degree aerial spin.

Unexpectedly, Su Chen's strength was this great.

He cleaved three heads in two with a single strike, but it seemed that this wasn't even his full strength.

These skeletons have skin as supple as leather, and their bodies are much harder than those of humans.

The Thunder Fang she gave Su Chen was decent, but it wasn't capable of cutting through iron like mud. The fact that it achieved this result was mostly due to Su Chen's own strength.

Anbi completely put aside her previous worries and focused all her attention on dealing with Yihai.

At that moment, seeing three of their kind severed in two, the other skeletons seemed stunned. They couldn't understand why this human remained so fierce even after losing his firepower.

If these lowly skeletal creatures possessed intelligence, they would know they should run away.

Unfortunately, they didn't.

Without a moment's pause, the skeletons charged relentlessly towards Su Chen and Anbi.

From all directions—front, back, left, right, east, west, and north—more than a hundred skeletons surrounded the two of them.

The walls made of skeletons tightly compressed their living space, leaving them only a circle with a diameter of two meters for them to maneuver.

"drink!"

Su Chen gave a soft shout and slashed left and right with his longsword.

Stab it!

The circle of skeletons in front of him was directly cut in two.

Then, Su Chen rudely rammed into him.

With a powerful lean, he sent Yi Hai flying, who was blocking his way.

He charged headlong into the horde of skeletons, needing no fancy techniques, just swinging his knife with all his might.

Under such a dense siege, no sword technique is as effective as the simplest slash.

With his immense strength of ten tons, he is qualified.

As the saying goes: Miracles happen when you exert great effort!

Just give it your all, and leave the rest to miracles.

At that moment, in Rin and Ambition's eyes, a miracle occurred.

Su Chen gripped his long sword tightly and charged into the horde of corpses with almost unstoppable force.

He slashed downwards, splitting the oncoming skeleton in two.

Then, with another upward slash, two more skeletons were cleaved away, and their companions that were hit behind them were also forced to retreat.

It's like a car crashing into a crowd; no one can withstand the impact.

The skeletal remains were tossed about like tattered sacks, then fell haphazardly to the ground.

Fortunately, Yi Hai is an ethereal corrosive body, so when injured, it only releases colorful ethereal energy.

Otherwise, this place would be a sea of ​​blood.

In just a few seconds, the horde of skeletons that had been attacking was scattered by extreme violence, and the tight encirclement was broken into pieces.

A few minutes later, Su Chen slew the last skeleton with his blade.

Su Chen sheathed the Thunder Fang and said with some lingering reminiscence, "It feels pretty good."

Killing with guns is certainly satisfying, but close-quarters combat with knives and swords is even more exhilarating.

The moment he had just slaughtered the corpses, he felt a strange sense of joy, as if he had returned to his childhood and was happily mowing the rapeseed flowers.

Moreover, if you cut off the core of the skeleton with a knife, it will be in very good condition and much easier to collect than the fragments.

It seems we can use the knife more often now.

"Your swordsmanship and strength are both very strong."

Ambi gave a sincere compliment.

Although Su Chen mostly relied on brute force to overcome skill when wielding the knife.

But the basic skills he displayed in his slashing were already extremely solid; he looked like a master of swordsmanship.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Su Chen accepted it without a second thought.

Ambi said with some regret, "It's a pity it's not electric, otherwise it would be even more powerful."

Seeing Su Chen's overwhelming combat power, she knew that [Thunder Fang] had chosen the right master.

The only minor drawback is that Su Chen is a physical attribute user, so he cannot unleash the full power of [Thunder Fang].

"There's no need to worry about attributes."

Su Chen didn't feel it was a pity at all, and said with a smile.

He has a gacha system, so who knows, he might draw a Thor's Eye or even the Herrscher of Thunder core someday.

Even though these are probably purple cards or even gold cards, you should always have dreams.
