Apocalypse: Become stronger by absorbing flames at the start; my name is the Flame Emperor.

"We've struck it rich!"

There aren't many opportunities like this, where a bunch of level one zombies gather together and he has a chance to kill them.

In just half an hour, he obtained sixteen Tier 1 crystal cores. At this moment, he paid no attention to anything else, focusing solely on frantically killing Tier 1 zombies.

"roar!"

More than an hour later, just as Lin Yu was getting into the swing of things, a huge roar rang out, and all the zombies actually stopped.

"Is the battle over?"

Lin Yu's heart tightened.

Taking advantage of the moment when the zombies stopped attacking, he quickly moved and took two more crystal cores before stopping.

These two level-one zombies are underlings brought by the master.

"Brother, that's enough. You've killed almost all the level one zombies on the field."

Just then, the voice of the master came through.

"Isn't this just me helping you out?" Lin Yu laughed heartily.

The master had a dark expression, but didn't say anything more.

If Lin Yu hadn't dealt with many level-one zombies, he probably would have been surrounded and attacked, which would have made it much more difficult to take down the zombie king.

"You tamed it?"

Lin Yu was surprised that the master had not killed the zombie king, but instead subdued it.

How did you do that?

He could clearly sense that this zombie king was no longer at level one, but at level two.

A high-ranking zombie submits to a low-ranking zombie?

This is so fantastical!

Lin Yu was somewhat tempted. He was considering whether to take action and wipe out all these high-level zombies.

However, he immediately suppressed that thought.

"Let's go!"

Lin Yu greeted them, then leaped away and headed outside.

On this trip, he obtained a total of thirty-seven first-tier crystal cores, which was a great harvest.

"Next up is Tianhai City," Lin Yu muttered to himself.

Today is the thirteenth day of the apocalypse.

Due to Lin Yu's butterfly effect, the evolutionary speed of the entire Great Xia Kingdom has increased significantly compared to the previous life.

On the ranking list of the Great Xia Kingdom, there are already twenty-six first-level evolved beings, and he is only ranked ninth, while Liu Shiyun is seventh.

This is quite normal, after all, some people's awakened talents allow them to advance faster in the early stages.

For example, Master Brother... has countless underlings who are willing to provide him with crystal cores.

For example, a psychic can use the keen sense of smell of their summoned beasts to find first-tier zombies and mutated beasts more easily than others, thus advancing faster.

Many powerful individuals now possess the ability to easily kill a Tier 1 zombie alone; the difficulty lies in finding a Tier 1 zombie.

Lin Yu glanced at the list.

Shuguang, the number one person in the strongest sequence in his previous life, is also not yet at the first level.

A fast advancement speed does not necessarily mean strong strength.

Lin Yu knew that none of those currently on the list could rival Dawn.

Except for yourself.

"I wonder if Jing'er's talent has awakened yet?"

Lin Yu thought of that woman again, who was determined to be on top of him.

……

On the highway from Kundu City to Tianhai City.

There were very few cars, not enough to block the road.

Liu Shiyun drove her G-Class, occasionally making S-shaped turns and dodging various vehicles and obstacles.

"The road ahead is blocked," Liu Shiyun said.

Lin Yu peeked out.

In the middle of the highway, seven or eight cars were stuck in a haphazard blockage.

"Watch me."

Lin Yu leaped out of the car and kicked all the cars blocking the road away.

that's it.

Nothing could stop them; the car sped away on the highway.

Unbeknownst to the three, a giant eagle was flying in the same direction as them, a thousand meters above their heads.

The eagle's wingspan reached a terrifying ten meters, clearly indicating that it was no ordinary eagle and had definitely mutated.

On its back stood a human figure.

……

the other side.

In the hotel lobby, Chen Jing'er was assigning tasks for the day.

Three days have passed since Lin Yu left, and their team still consists of seventeen people.

Apart from the four leaders who had reached level ten early on, the remaining thirteen women were all at level nine.

Among the evolved beings in this ancient town, they are enough to rank in the top ten.

"Today we'll head towards West Back Street and try to kill three more Tier 3 zombies to make a total of ten," Chen Jing'er said.

Everyone agreed, their faces beaming with enthusiasm.

After lunch, the group of seventeen people left the hotel.

However, as soon as they came out, their path was blocked.

"You're the only team on West Street?" The man glanced at the group, not taking them seriously.

"What's wrong?" Chen Jing'er frowned.

"His abilities are quite good; he's qualified to be my subordinate."

The man looked at the crowd and found that the lowest level among them was level nine, which made him slightly satisfied.

I just don't know how many of these awakened ones are here.

The man also felt a sense of anticipation.

If Lin Yu were here, he would definitely recognize this person.

In his previous life, this person was Lu Qi, the first expert in Kundu City to reach the third rank, and also the recipient of the Fire Dragon's essence blood.

Unfortunately, in this life, Lin Yu beat him to it, and he not only failed to obtain the Fire Dragon's essence blood, but also lost all other treasures.

However, some people are born with extraordinary luck.

After the apocalypse, all the animals in Xiyun Mountain Zoo mutated. Some started fighting each other, while others ran into the mountains and forests.

A tiger and a leopard fought and were both seriously injured. Lu Qi happened to witness this, which became his opportunity.

His S-level awakened talent, Ability Acceptance, allowed him to directly absorb the tiger's ferocity and the leopard's speed.

"Subordinate?"

Chen Jing'er tossed her hair and smiled, "This old lady thinks you'd be more suited to be my subordinate."

"Then let me see if you have the ability!"

Lu Qi wasn't angry. He said calmly, "I will show you what a true strongman is."

After saying that, he flashed away and rushed off.

"Jing-jie, watch out!"

Everyone only saw a shadow flash by before the person was already in front of Chen Jing'er.

"Ice Shield!"

Xiao Wen reacted quickly, raising his hand to use his ice power to condense a huge ice shield in front of Chen Jing'er.

"Bang!"

But the next moment.

Lu Qi's fist, carrying immense power, slammed heavily onto the ice shield, shattering it into pieces.

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

Xiao Wen was the strongest among them, yet his ice shield was shattered in an instant.

This man's strength is terrifying.

"Bang!"

Another loud collision rang out as Lu Qi shattered the ice shield and threw another punch.

Chen Jing'er swayed, trying to avoid it.

However, they found that their opponent was even faster, following them like a shadow, and they couldn't shake them off.

Faced with the incoming fist, she gritted her teeth; there was no way to avoid it, so she could only take it head-on.

However, her opponent's strength was far beyond her reach. With a single touch, her body was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.

"Sister Jing!"

"Sister Jing!"

Everyone was shocked and immediately took action.

"Sandification!"

Yang Shanshan activated her talent, instantly turning the ground beneath Lu Qi's feet into sand.

Under the influence of gravity, Lu Qi sank down rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, his lower thighs were completely buried in the sand.

In ten seconds at most, he will be completely buried in the sand.

"drink!"

Lu Qi also looked solemn. He unleashed his full magical power, instantly scattering the surrounding sand and actually stopping the downward force.

"Get down!"

At this moment, with a loud shout from Xiao Wen, huge ice spikes condensed above the man's head and smashed down on him.

At the same time, countless wind blades slashed through the air and approached him.

Lu Qi was also a little flustered at this moment.

He hadn't expected there to be three gifted individuals, all with very strong talents, and the three of them worked together seamlessly, which led him into a dangerous situation.

If he can't break free of the sand beneath his feet quickly, he's probably doomed.
