He was merely in a state of readiness.
Zhang Chen's entire being was suspended in mid-air, enveloped in pure golden energy.
The energy flames on the outside released scorching heat, instantly igniting the surrounding plants.
Gales roared around Zhang Chen.
A piece of debris, swept up by the wind, accidentally struck a tree trunk, immediately creating a crater and chipping away at the bark.
Its power was no less than that of a bullet fired from a large-caliber firearm.
"This power..."
Zhang Chen slowly opened his eyes, his pupils also shimmering with golden light.
The energy veins of everything before him were even clearer.
He could not only distinguish the Singer and its clones clearly but also perceive subtle energy fluctuations.
Any living being or infected entity, before taking action, invariably required the coordination of biological energy to move, attack, or use skills.
And these subtle biological energy fluctuations were clearly displayed before Zhang Chen, as if afraid Zhang Chen wouldn't see clearly, playing out in slow motion...
"So refreshing!"
Zhang Chen smiled slightly.
At this moment, Zhang Chen's original clones had already been annihilated by more than ten Singers whose combat power had surged.
Now, Zhang Chen's main body was their sole target.
*Swish!*
*Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!*
The first three Singer clones to charge, with their attributes boosted severalfold, attacked Zhang Chen from three different angles.
However, Zhang Chen's hands hadn't even moved.
He merely twisted his body casually and skillfully dodged all the attacks.
Then, three more Singer clones charged forward.
Six against one!
But no matter how they attacked, their fists and feet were always just a hair's breadth away from Zhang Chen.
"Hmph, it seems the Singers aren't as strong as I imagined..."
The Singers and their clones uniformly repeated a sentence Zhang Chen had spoken...
It had to be said, these guys had excellent memories, actually remembering Zhang Chen's words from over ten minutes ago...
The Singer waved its right hand, and a black long saber appeared in its hand. Its body was covered in sturdy armor, and it held a short saber in its left hand.
This set of equipment was, no doubt, a mimicry of someone else, but it seemed the original owner must have been a strong individual.
Unfortunately, they were killed by the Singer.
"I'm done playing with you, time to try out my new trick!"
Zhang Chen smiled slightly.
He clenched his right hand in the air!
A common Tang saber appeared in his hand.
This Tang saber was an exact replica in terms of its design to the Tang saber Zhang Chen had forged when he first entered the apocalypse. It was a weapon materialized by energy in Zhang Chen's current peak state.
Its power was naturally incomparable to ordinary weapons!
*Swish!*
Zhang Chen swung the saber forcefully with his right hand.
This strike was sharp and swift, flashing by like lightning.
In an instant, the heads of three Singer clones were easily sliced in two, their bodies dissipating into white mist...
He turned and swung again.
Although the trajectory of this strike was very clear.
Anyone with some combat experience could predict the angle and position of this attack and dodge it in advance.
But this strike was simply too fast...
So fast that there was no time to even attempt to dodge.
The other three Singer clones also dissipated into mist.
Immediately after, Zhang Chen himself vanished from the spot.
No one could track Zhang Chen's movements.
But one could see the Singer clones rapidly vaporizing and disappearing one by one.
With the "God · Soul Burn" state activated, Zhang Chen faced the clones of the mutated Level VII infected Singer with the ease of slaughtering chickens and dogs!
*Clang!*
Zhang Chen's Tang saber clashed with the Singer's dual sabers!
The immense impact force made the surrounding giant trees sway, their large leaves rubbing against each other, creating a loud rustling sound.
The Singer's dual sabers shattered upon impact, and its armor was also blown apart by the shockwave from the Tang saber!
In just one strike!
All of the Singer's materialized equipment shattered, and it was directly sent flying thirty to forty meters away, crashing heavily onto the ground.
The Singer slowly stood up, and before it could observe its surroundings.
Suddenly, a golden point of light appeared in its field of vision.
Immediately after, gold filled its entire vision.
Slay!
Zhang Chen raised his saber and brought it down.
The Singer's head was split in two, and its body dissipated into mist.
Ding! Automatic collection successful, congratulations on obtaining [Super Crystal Core] *1200 + 1200 (30% trigger of Light Blessing), [Energy Concentrating Crystal Core] *2999, [Energy Core] *2441, [Storage Ring Shard] *15, [Bloody Wedding Ring] *1...
The Singer was one that had been killed previously, and the [Unprocessed Energy Core] had already been obtained, so it did not drop this time.
As the Singer slowly dissipated, a very faint wisp of energy drifted towards Luo Tianyu.
Zhang Chen extinguished the "God · Soul Burn" state and walked towards Luo Tianyu with light steps.
Without the Singer, dealing with this guy would probably only take a finger.
Luo Tianyu also saw Zhang Chen at this moment, approaching with a murderous expression, his entire body shrouded in an aura of death.
"You... don't come over, don't forget, your team isn't just you alone!"
"My Mechanical Rampage Bear is a nemesis to infected beings, and your zombie friend definitely won't be able to withstand its attacks."
"I didn't let it go all out, so your friend should still be alive!"
"If you take another step forward, you'll never see your zombie friend again!"
Luo Tianyu said nervously.
Although the natives were arrogant, they were still human after all.
As long as they were human, they would fear death, and Luo Tianyu was no exception.
"Zombie friend? Are you talking about me?"
Xu Ruina sat on a tree branch not far from Luo Tianyu, her legs swinging slowly.
Her long, fair legs, glimpsed from her cheongsam, were exceptionally striking.
Zhang Chen instantly appeared beside Xu Ruina, carried her down from the tree, and stood on the ground.
He frowned and grumbled softly:
"There's an outsider, be mindful of your image, don't show too much!"
Xu Ruina smiled indifferently and said:
"It doesn't matter if he sees, I'll just gouge his eyes out later!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Tianyu was so scared that he quickly turned his head away, not daring to look at Xu Ruina directly.
"You... how could you possibly defeat the Mechanical Rampage Bear? It's completely immune to viruses!"
Luo Tianyu asked in confusion.
"We have to thank the Earth Spiders for that. Although my abilities aren't enough to infect the Spider Queen, infecting hundreds or thousands of small Earth Spiders is not a problem!"
"Although the Mechanical Rampage Bear is strong in strength and speed, once these zombie spiders burrow into its body, it becomes nothing but scrap metal."
Xu Ruina played with the Mechanical Rampage Bear's mechanical eyeball and said with a smile.
