Survival in the Apocalypse: Max Level Drop Rate with Abundant Resources

Welcome to Cola Novels! A vast collection of novels awaits your exploration!

The night was as dark as ink, and the stench of blood permeated the night air.

Gu Zhengxiong stood at the entrance to the moon gate, his gaze fixed on the darkness. Ninety-seven soldiers trembled behind him, their hands gripping their guns shaking, their eyes filled with fear.

He had spent half his life in the military and had never seen such an opponent.

One man, with two knives, killed nearly two hundred of his elite troops in one night.

Is this a human or a ghost?

"Commander, let's retreat!" Adjutant Liu Gang leaned over and whispered, "That kid is too strange. If we keep dragging this out..."

"Retreat?" Gu Zhengxiong wondered. "Where to retreat to? The troops stationed outside the city won't arrive for at least half an hour. Are you sure we can survive in that half hour?"

Liu Gang fell silent.

Gu Zhengxiong took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. His years of military service had taught him that the more desperate the situation, the more important it was to remain calm.

He quickly scanned his surroundings, a map of the city lord's mansion appearing in his mind.

There was a hidden door in the backyard leading to the city's northern sewer system. It was an escape route that Liu Xinghui had built years ago, which she had used herself last night. But after Gu Zhengxiong took over the city lord's mansion, he immediately located the passage.

"Liu Gang," he lowered his voice, "you take twenty men and protect Yunfei as he evacuates through the secret door in the backyard."

Liu Gang was taken aback: "Commander, what about you?"

"I'll stay behind to cover your retreat." Gu Zhengxiong's gaze fell into the darkness. "That kid's after me. As long as I'm here, he won't chase you."

"But……"

"No buts!" Gu Zhengxiong said sternly, "Yunfei is now the only bloodline of the Gu family; he must live!"

Liu Gang gritted his teeth and nodded emphatically: "Yes!"

He turned and beckoned twenty elite soldiers to quietly move toward the backyard.

Gu Yunfei was being supported by two soldiers, his legs still trembling. Seeing Liu Gang approach, his eyes lit up: "Lieutenant Liu, where's my dad? Is he leaving too?"

"Young Master Gu, retreat first. The Commander will arrive shortly." Liu Gang lowered his voice and dragged him toward the backyard.

Gu Yunfei struggled desperately: "No! I have to wait for my dad! How can he manage alone?"

"Young Master Gu!" Liu Gang exclaimed anxiously, "Your presence here will only cause trouble! The Commander is here to protect you!"

Before Gu Yunfei could say anything more, he was forcibly dragged into the backyard by several soldiers.

……

In the darkness, Shen Xi's senses spread out.

He clearly sensed more than twenty points of light moving in the direction of the backyard, one of which was particularly bright—that good-for-nothing Gu Yunfei.

As for that steady and substantial point of light, it remains in the same place.

Gu Zhengxiong, you must cover the rear.

Shen Xi's lips curled into a cold smile.

"Trying to run away?"

"Can you escape?"

But he didn't chase after him immediately. Because Gu Zhengxiong was blocking his way, and if he went after Gu Yunfei, the old man would fight even harder.

and……

His gaze fell on the remaining soldiers in front of him.

These miscellaneous fish need to be cleaned first.

Shen Xi slowly stood up and stepped out of the shadows.

The moonlight illuminated his cold, stern face and his blood-soaked body.

The seventy-odd soldiers all took a step back the moment they saw him.

Gu Zhengxiong's eyes sharpened, and he said sternly, "What are you afraid of? He's only one person! Form ranks! Prepare to fire!"

Being elite troops, after a brief moment of panic, the soldiers quickly formed three ranks, their guns pointed at Shen Xi.

Shen Xi did not dodge.

He simply stood there and began changing weapons.

The moment the Bone-Corroding Battle Axe landed in his hand, its five pale blades gleamed with a chilling light under the moonlight.

Immediately afterwards, bone armor covered his body, the pale bone fragments trembling slightly in the night wind.

Finally, the storm cloak unfurled behind him, its silver-grey cloak fluttering in the night wind.

Gu Zhengxiong's pupils contracted slightly.

Where did this kid get so much equipment?

Shen Xi raised her head, her gaze passing over the trembling gun barrels and landing on Gu Zhengxiong.

"Commander Gu, you don't have many men left!"

The moment the words left her lips, Shen Xi moved!

Bloodthirsty charge!

His body shot out like a cannonball, closing the ten-meter distance in an instant!

"shot!"

Gunshots rang out!

Bullets rained down!

But Shen Xi was too fast! With 41 points of agility plus a 10% temporary boost, his agility reached 45 points, making his figure almost invisible!

Before the first rank of soldiers could react, Shen Xi had already rushed into the crowd!

The Bone-Corroding Battle Axe sweeps across!

"Snap!"

Three heads flew off simultaneously! Blood spurted out!

Whirlwind Triple Slash!

First lap!

The axe flashed, tearing open the chests of five corpses, their internal organs spilling out onto the ground!

Second lap!

Four more heads flew off!

The third lap!

The last three fell!

In just three seconds, the twelve people had turned into corpses!

"Scatter! Scatter!" Gu Zhengxiong roared hoarsely, "Don't gather together!"

But it was too late.

Shen Xi was like a vicious wolf, slaughtering indiscriminately among the crowd.

Because Shen Xi's attack speed was too fast, the tearing effect of the Corrupting Bone Battle Axe was frequently triggered. The wounds of the soldiers who were slashed could not heal at all, and blood gushed out like a spring!

The armor-piercing effect is equally terrifying, ignoring their bulletproof vests, and every axe blow can cause maximum damage!

The mouth has an incredible blood-sucking effect!

Shen Xi was hit by bullets several times, and blood was flowing freely, but after the axe blade finished off a life, the wounds would heal at a speed visible to the naked eye!

"A monster...he's a monster!"

Someone broke down and turned to run away!

But he hadn't run two steps before the axe flash caught up with him!

Shen Xi's killing spree continued.

Ten people.

Twenty people.

Thirty people.

The ground was littered with corpses, and blood flowed like a river.

His storm cloak fluttered in the night wind, each wave bringing with it a shower of blood.

Finally, after killing nearly fifty people, Shen Xi stopped.

The intense battle left him slightly out of breath.

The bone armor was riddled with bullet holes, and its durability was almost gone. However, the wounds on his body had mostly healed thanks to the life-steal effect.

He raised his head and looked ahead.

There were still more than twenty soldiers left. At this moment, they had completely collapsed, threw down their guns, and scattered and fled, not daring to face Shen Xi at all.

Gu Zhengxiong stood at the entrance to the moon gate, his face ashen.

His elite army, his meticulously crafted ace force, was as fragile as paper in front of a twenty-year-old!

"Commander Gu." Shen Xi, carrying a battle axe, walked towards him step by step. "Your men have all run away. Now, you're the only one left."

Gu Zhengxiong took a deep breath and slowly drew a dark red battle sword from behind his back.

The blade is long and narrow, with a faint glow at the edge, and a blood-red gem is inlaid in the hilt.

【Name: Bloodthirsty Blade】

[Type: Weapon]

[Quality: Silver]

Attack power: 39-46

[Special Effect: Armor Penetration (Ignores 20% of the target's defense)]

[Description: He has drunk countless lives and exudes a murderous aura.]

This is the treasure he forged by gathering the entire Lion Legion, and it is also his only piece of equipment.

"Tai Chu." Gu Zhengxiong stared at Shen Xi, his voice deep and thunderous, "You killed my son, slaughtered my soldiers. Today, only one of us can live."

Shen Xi smiled.

"Commander Gu, I never thought you'd have such a day."

Gu Zhengxiong couldn't help but ask, "Who exactly are you? What deep-seated hatred exists between us?"

Shen Xi did not answer.

He gripped the bone-corroding battle axe tightly and exerted force with his feet!

Bloodthirsty Charge, launch it again!

The two figures collided instantly!

"clang!"

Sparks flew as the axe blade clashed with the battle sword!

Gu Zhengxiong felt a jolt in his hand and staggered backward!

Strength: Shen Xi 42 points, plus a 10% boost, 46 points.

Gu Zhengxiong is level 5, with a strength of approximately 35.

A power difference of around ten points means a crushing defeat in a head-on collision!

Shen Xi pressed her advantage relentlessly, unleashing another Whirlwind Triple Slash!

First lap!

Gu Zhengxiong raised his knife to block, but his hand was split open, and blood flowed freely!

Second lap!

His sword flew out of his hand!

The third lap!

The axe blade was aimed straight at his neck!

At this critical moment...

Gu Zhengxiong unleashed all his power!

"clang!"

The battle blade clashed with the axe blade, sparks flying!

Shen Xi's attack was blocked.

Gu Zhengxiong coughed up blood: "As long as I can block you and buy them enough time to escape, that's enough."

"Don't worry, they can't escape."

Shen Xi wasn't worried at all that Gu Yunfei and his group would run away.

As soon as he finished speaking, he flipped his left hand over.

The Ghost Child's Rag Doll appeared in the palm of the hand.

"come out."

A dim light exploded!

A small figure appeared beside Shen Xi.

A pink dress, two little braids, a pale face, and pure black eyes.

Ghost Child.

Level 7 leader.

She tilted her head and looked at Shen Xi.

"Hehe, Uncle called me out to play again."

Her voice was still as sweet as ever, but it sent chills down Gu Zhengxiong's spine.

"What...what is this?!"

His response was the ghost child's smiling face and those pure black pupils.

"Play with me!"

"Wait, he's my prey. You kill those twenty-odd people who ran away, and then they'll play hide-and-seek with you!" Seeing that the ghost child was about to attack Gu Zhengxiong, Shen Xi hurriedly stopped him. No joke, this was his prey.

"Hide and seek, I love playing that!" The ghost child was thrilled to hear about hide and seek, and in the next instant, she disappeared from the spot.

"Ah..." In the distance, before the three fleeing soldiers could react, the ghost child's little hand had already pierced their throats.

The ghost child was so fast that it disappeared before everyone's eyes, and every time it appeared, someone would fall down.

Each of them died a gruesome death. Compared to the Lion Legion's pathetic state, the Ghost Child seemed to be having a great time.

"Stop looking at them, let's continue!" Shen Xi wouldn't give Gu Zhengxiong a chance to catch his breath, and the Corrupted Bone Battle Axe in her hand whistled past again.

The clang of metal rang out, and sparks flew everywhere!

In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged more than a dozen blows!

If Gu Zhengxiong hadn't been so experienced in combat and skilled in both offense and defense, he might have been killed by Shen Xi long ago.

However, Shen Xi's attacks were equally fierce. Ten years of survival in the apocalypse had honed his terrifying killing skills, and every axe blow he wielded was aimed straight at Gu Zhengxiong's vitals.

Gu Zhengxiong's face grew increasingly grim. The young man before him was launching a fierce attack, and his defeat was only a matter of time.
