With the sound of a bubble popping, Jiang Hao finally achieved a Breakthrough to Qi Condensation Rank eight.
Feeling the surging Spiritual Qi within his body, Jiang Hao's hand pulsed with Spiritual Qi, and a glazed longsword, formed from condensed Spiritual Qi, appeared.
"Let's see if I can use sword manipulation."
Following the memories in his mind, Jiang Hao controlled the longsword to fly around himself.
Although he achieved this, condensing Spiritual Qi into a physical object had already consumed a large amount of his Spiritual Qi.
After playing for a while, Jiang Hao voluntarily withdrew his Spiritual Qi; without reaching Foundation Establishment, condensing Qi into a physical object was ultimately a bit strenuous.
At this moment, Jiang Tian and the other two also finished their Cultivation, each gaining another ten points of strength.
"Let's eat something and continue our journey. There should be more Rank three zombies today, and our supplies are running low. It's time to replenish them."
Half an hour later, the four of them arrived at the teaching building again.
Currently, there weren't many zombies here at the teaching building; most of them were still concentrated in the dormitory area and the cafeteria.
Survivors would naturally seek out places with ample food, rarely coming here, and thus wouldn't attract large hordes of zombies.
So, there were only a few wandering zombies here; a few dozen gathered together was already considered a lot.
"Sure enough, there really are newly promoted Rank three zombies today!"
From a hundred meters away, Jiang Hao immediately spotted a Rank three zombie surrounded by dozens of other zombies.
On the third day of the apocalypse, Rank one zombies had basically become extinct, Rank two zombies were the mainstream, and some with better talents had already Evolved to Rank three.
"One Rank three, forty-three Rank two. Do you have confidence?"
Jiang Hao turned around and asked.
"It's a bit difficult, but not impossible to fight!"
Jiang Tian thought for a moment and said.
Rank two zombies could already cause them harm; if surrounded, even a Rank three Evolutionary would be in mortal danger.
"Hmm, be careful not to scatter. If things become unmanageable, retreat."
Jiang Hao nodded. This kind of battle posed some threat to the three of them, but it wasn't life-threatening.
"Okay, let's go!"
Jiang Tian nodded solemnly, preparing to engage in battle.
"Roar!"
A roar suddenly echoed in the distance.
Hearing it, the small group of zombies here quickly ran towards the source of the sound.
"Oh, there's a big one! Follow it, let's go see!"
Through that roar, Jiang Hao could sense that whatever made the sound was definitely not ordinary.
At this moment, in the dormitory area, hundreds of people were surrounded by thousands of zombies, among which a zombie standing three meters tall stood out.
"What should we do!"
The people surrounded were in a state of panic.
They were Xiao Chen's people, and among them, over fifty had reached Rank one Evolutionary, and there were even five Rank two Evolutionaries.
Early this morning, Xiao Chen had dispatched people to rescue those who wanted to join them.
Initially, the scattered rescue efforts went smoothly, but as more and more people were rescued, trouble arose.
They happened to encounter that special zombie standing alone here.
One of the small teams became greedy, wanting to take down this zombie by relying on their numbers.
After all, a three-meter-tall zombie must be different from other zombies, and if killed, the benefits would naturally be greater than from other zombies.
Moreover, in their imagination, no matter how powerful a zombie was, how powerful could it be? Having already killed Rank two zombies, they didn't take this particular zombie seriously at all.
But only when they truly engaged in combat did they realize how terribly wrong they were; this zombie was simply incomparable to other zombies.
Rank one Evolutionaries couldn't even withstand a single attack.
The commotion here was also discovered by other rescue teams, and soon more and more teams arrived.
But even with so many people together, they couldn't do anything to this zombie.
And when they gathered a few hundred people, with a loud roar from this zombie, dense hordes of zombies appeared around them, surrounding them completely.
At this point, some people realized they had fallen into a trap.
In their impression, although zombies were ferocious, they had no independent consciousness.
They never expected this unique zombie to possess independent consciousness.
However, after surrounding the people, the zombies did not immediately attack.
And the longer they didn't attack, the greater the fear they instilled in these people.
Hundreds of people, most of them ordinary people who had been rescued.
Each one looked terrified.
They had already wet themselves from fear.
Jiang Hao and the others, who had been following the zombies, also arrived in the vicinity at this time. Seeing the scene before them, Jiang Tian gasped.
Thousands of zombies, mostly Rank two zombies, and even over a dozen Rank three zombies among them.
And the leading zombie made all three of them feel a threat to their lives.
"Brother Hao, what Rank is that leading zombie?"
Jiang Tian asked in a low voice.
They had fought Rank two and Rank three zombies before and could distinguish them, but without Unspecified, they couldn't see through the leading zombie at all.
"Rank seven zombie!"
"!!!"
"Hiss, a Rank seven zombie? Does that mean it has over two thousand strength? At this stage, it should be considered a Zombie King, right? How could such an overpowered zombie appear!"
This made the three people, whose strength had greatly increased, feel fear.
They weren't afraid of facing Rank three zombies now, and with Rank three zombies being rare, the sudden appearance of a Rank seven zombie truly broke their understanding.
"Brother Hao, why don't we retreat? We can deal with it once our strength increases!"
Jiang Tian said, shrinking his neck.
"Take it down. This zombie is very unusual; it actually has the ability to devour!"
Jiang Hao shook his head and said.
Through Unspecified, he could see the zombie's Rank and ability.
Besides a gray crystal in its head, there was also a white crystal.
And that white crystal should have mutated, and its ability was devouring.
It could grow stronger by devouring corpses.
This was why it could reach Rank seven zombie status in such a short time.
Even Jiang Hao, a Cultivator, was envious of this ability.
Although he couldn't use it, he couldn't let it go to waste.
"But with so many zombies, the three of us can't take it down!"
Jiang Tian still said fearfully.
Jiang Hao shook his head and said, "You won't need to act this time. Haven't you always been curious about my strength? Then I'll satisfy your curiosity!"
These past two days, Jiang Tian and the other two had been fighting, while Jiang Hao rarely took action, mostly helping them scout for zombies.
To be honest, he was indeed a bit eager for a fight himself, and he also wanted to see what level his own strength had reached.
Now that a stronger zombie had finally appeared, he wasn't going to just watch from the sidelines this time.
"Find a place to hide. Don't let the zombies find you, otherwise, with so many zombies, they'll be enough to eat you clean!"
Jiang Hao patted Jiang Tian's shoulder and walked towards the zombie horde.
