Chapter 142: A Fierce Fight
Although Leng Pan was angry and wanted to eliminate that little zombie immediately, she still had her rationality left. She could tell that the zombie was different from others and maybe fighting with it for a while could act both as training and may help to uncover something more.
Thus, instead of using her mist to kill the zombie immediately, she looked at her husband who seemed to understand what she meant even without saying a word.
Leng Pan put down her crossbow and picked up the Tang sword her mother-in-law had been using. The next moment, she and her husband stood back-to-back again and put all the training they had undergone in the last two weeks to use.
Luckily, they understood that some circumstances might force them to suppress their superpowers and fight with physical weapons in close combat someday. Therefore, they had been training nonstop to fight zombies with cold weapons daily.
Now, that training was showing results in a real and serious battle. They had been training among themselves or when killing zombies, but the ones they usually deal with are completely brainless and only have one instinct; to kill.
Nevertheless, it looked like their opponent today was different. After all, that zombie boy could evade the arrows she had shot, which means that it had some level of intelligence. It didn’t matter whether the intelligence was low, but this sent a message to them. Zombies were evolving way faster than expected.
Both Leng Pan and Lu Zhen swung their swords with brute strength and with every swing, a head or two would roll.
While decapitating the zombies close to them, they also had to keep an eye on that small zombie and at the same time deflect the wind blades it was attacking them with.
The wind blades were sharp and if one was careless, they would have parts of their body missing. Sensing that they might eventually have to use their spiritual power, Lu Zhen decided to withdraw his fire ability and immediately Leng Pan covered him with a mist.
She was still afraid of her family finding out about some of the secrets she and her husband kept. Therefore, she didn’t let the mist touch Lu Zhen directly as it might end up healing his wounds that were just made. That would surely scare them.
It is not that she and Lu Zhen didn’t trust their family but because they wanted to protect them. That was why they were reluctant to tell them about the space and the meteorite.
