Lord of All, my talent is SSS level.

"You stinky..."

When JK woman Liu Ruyan heard Zhao Yi say this, her eyes widened, and she raised her finger to scold him. However, before she could finish speaking, she suddenly froze.

"puff--"

Blood gushed from Liu Ruyan's mouth, and blood flowed from all seven orifices as she collapsed into a pool of blood.

"Um?"

Upon seeing this, Zhao Yi's expression changed slightly.

"Is this his lordly talent?"

It's bizarre and dangerous that someone could die silently, bleeding from all seven orifices.

"Let's get to know each other again. My name is Chen Chong, a Tier 1 Lord with the talent Curse Kill, which has a 30-minute cooldown. I hope we can complete this survival mission together."

The bespectacled man casually adjusted his glasses and extended his hand to Zhao Yi.

A slight smile remained on his face.

Although the self-introduction was brief, Chen Chong felt it was very sincere.

"Call me Sixth Brother, Tier 1 Lord, talent Absolute Control, cooldown time 2 hours."

Zhao Yi did not shake hands with the other party, but simply spoke in a calm tone.

The opponent's talent is Curse Killing, which, as the name suggests, is an ability related to curses.

The conditions for activating this ability are still unclear; both name and physical contact could be triggers.

Although Chen Chong seemed honest, who knows what the other person was really thinking?

Therefore, Zhao Yi dared not be careless. It would be too dangerous to rashly reveal the other party's name or make physical contact with them.

As for his lordly talent, he would never tell anyone else.

Even if this talent cannot be specified to copy attributes, it is still powerful enough.

Anyway, when the Super Copy is activated, it will also forcibly control the opponent for a breath, about a second or so.

This will effectively conceal it.

"Sixth Brother, my name is Takada, a Tier 1 Lord, with the talent Water Curtain Heavenly Bloom, a cooldown of 5 minutes," the dark-skinned, gaunt man said.

"We've cleared out the zombies on this floor, but the mission requires us to survive for 12 hours, which is obviously not going to be easy."

Chen Chong adjusted his glasses and slowly began to speak.

He didn't care that Zhao Yi didn't shake his hand or deliberately avoid giving his name.

After all, Chen Chong's talent could easily lead people to misunderstand him, and it's understandable that a vigilant person would think that way.

In Chen Chong's view, the most important thing is to survive this mission and even get an A+ rating or higher.

"Takada's B-grade Water Curtain Heavenly Flower has a 5-minute cooldown?"

Upon hearing the words of the gaunt man, Takada, Zhao Yi's heart stirred.

"My A-grade Water Curtain Sky Flower has a 1-minute cooldown!"

In an instant, Zhao Yi grasped the key point.

The cooldown time will be reduced after the talent is upgraded.

"Unfortunately, my Super Replication is already at SSS level and cannot be improved further. A 2-hour cooldown is the limit."

Zhao Yi seemed to be deep in thought, but his face remained calm as he looked at Chen Chong and said.

"I came up from the first floor, where a terrifying dark tremor occurred..."

It is still unclear whether there are any other people in the building.

However, if Chen Chong and Gao Tian are of good character, it's not impossible to cooperate, especially since they have already pledged their allegiance.

Therefore, Zhao Yi did not hide anything and directly told him in detail about the information he had obtained and the situation on the first floor.

"My super copy will take almost two more hours before I can use it again. I need to find an opportunity to use it on Chen Chong."

"If I can obtain the Curse Killer, it will be another trump card for me," Zhao Yi thought to himself.

However, the replication attribute of Super Copy is random, and Zhao Yi cannot guarantee that he will be able to successfully replicate it.

"I didn't expect the first floor to be so dangerous! Brother Chen, why don't we just guard this building?"

When Takada heard Zhao Yi say that the first floor was so dangerous, he couldn't help but speak up.

Ordinary zombies are relatively easy to deal with, but giant zombies several meters tall are truly terrifying.

Especially since Shen Lang, who was the main force in their previous four-person team, is now dead.

"We can't hold out on our own."

Chen Chong adjusted his glasses, and said with a hint of helplessness but also with great calm, "We were able to clear this floor mainly thanks to Shen Lang and Liu Ruyan."

"Their talents combined are better suited for clearing out zombies. Your and my talents are not very useful against hordes of zombies."

"Even with Lao Liu joining now, his talent isn't suited for group battles."

"We need to find new partners, or find a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack."

In fact, if Shen Lang hadn't shown an increasingly assertive attitude, and even intended to use him and Takada as cannon fodder, Chen Chong wouldn't have remained so calm after Zhao Yi killed Shen Lang.

Even before Zhao Yi appeared, there were already rifts in this four-person team.

"Shen Lang's talent strength has doubled, and combined with Liu Ruyan's talent for bravery, they are indeed suitable for combat. Our talents are far inferior."

Takada also sighed deeply.

But Takada also knew that Shen Lang not only had a bad temper, but was also a very bad person.

When they were clearing out the zombies in this building, they had shown disdain for him and Chen Chong on several occasions.

Even before that, Chen Chong had already been tricked by Shen Lang once.

If he hadn't used his innate Water Curtain Heavenly Splendor to save Chen Chong in time, Chen Chong would probably have turned into a zombie.

Although they haven't seen any zombie infection yet, it's highly likely that these zombies definitely have the zombie virus.

So even if Zhao Yi didn't kill Shen Lang, he would have had a conflict with the two of them sooner or later.

"Let's go to the rooftop!"

"We just need to guard the door to the rooftop, and maybe we can make it through 12 hours," Zhao Yi said after a moment of silence.

Zhao Yi downstairs definitely won't go back.

That giant zombie might still be down there, or even be preparing to come up right now.

Moreover, it seemed that zombies were still continuously rushing out from the darkness downstairs.

Although this floor has been cleared out for now, it will probably be filled with zombies from downstairs and even upstairs again before long.

The machine guns were left on the first floor; they were no match for the horde of zombies.

"Can we hide in the ventilation duct?" Takada asked again.

His physique was rather thin, making it easy for him to enter the ventilation duct.

The zombies can't climb up there, can they?

"That's one way, but if we actually go into the ventilation ducts, our movements will be slower."

"Even if we can't catch up with ordinary zombies, what about the giant zombies that Brother Liu mentioned?"

"Given that zombie's height, it could probably tear the ventilation duct apart."

"Then we'll be trapped like turtles in a jar, turned into human meat cans by zombies."

Chen Chong adjusted his glasses and calmly analyzed the situation.

"roar!"

A series of low growls immediately followed.

Upon hearing the sound, Takada immediately ran up the stairs and looked down.

"Oh no, Brother Chen, zombies are rushing up from downstairs! Ah, zombies are coming down from upstairs too!"

Clearly, the commotion here just now attracted not only the zombies downstairs, but also the zombies upstairs, who began to move downwards.

"I want to go to the rooftop. What's your choice?"

Zhao Yi immediately gripped the gun in his right hand, then quickly stepped forward, walked to Shen Lang's body, and picked up the fire axe from the ground with his right hand.

His dagger was broken by Shen Lang's axe earlier, so he can only use the axe for now.

After all, pistols don't have unlimited ammo; they only have two magazines of bullets, so Zhao Yi had to use them sparingly.

"Let's go upstairs!"

Chen Chong glanced at the stairs and immediately made a decision.

The three of them then rushed up the stairs.

"Okay, Brother Chen, I'll listen to you. My talent is ready, I'll lead the way!" Gao Tian shouted and rushed upstairs.

"Water Curtain Sky Splendor!"

A pale blue energy shield, resembling ripples of water, appeared in front of him, and Takada ran forward with the shield on his head.

bang bang bang-

In an instant, the two zombies pounced on him, but they couldn't tear open the Water Curtain Sky at all.

"If I charge in all at once, I can only maintain the shield for 3 minutes."

Takada roared, veins bulging on his neck, and forcefully carved a gap upwards in the staircase.

"Go up to the sixth floor first, then find the entrance to the rooftop."

Chen Chong also took out a baton from his waist and rushed forward quickly.

"Your movements are very swift; you seem to have martial arts training!"

Zhao Yi's eyes flickered slightly, but his movements were swift. Holding a fire axe in his right hand, he took down a zombie head with each blow and charged forward.

"This Tier 1 lord's physical abilities are truly impressive; he holds a heavy fire axe as lightly as a badminton racket."

After a fierce charge, the three of them quickly fought their way through the stairs and made their way to the sixth floor.

But as soon as he rushed out from the corner of the stairs, Takada's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"What the hell is this?"
