The system always wants to send me to the heroine

The metallic sound that I hadn't heard for a long time suddenly came into my mind.

Eh? My favorability has actually increased!

I understand! It turns out that I misunderstood. The heroine didn't doubt me at all. She was really helping me!

She even fed me crystals with her own hands!

I quickly gathered my energy. The heroine trusted me so much and had high hopes for me, so of course I had to work hard!

"Take it, zombies! Zombie command in twenty-meter radius!"

I let out a cry and used all my strength, trying to extend my command to every zombie within range.

To my surprise, there were about fifty zombies in range, and they all stopped in their tracks.

Such a huge number made me open my mouth in shock. It was obvious that with my ability, I could only control five when I was with Zheng Yi and the others!

I swallowed and continued giving orders.

"Well, then, everyone, hold your heads and squat down!"

More than fifty zombies immediately squatted down in unison, but they didn't seem to understand the meaning of "holding their heads". Some zombies wrapped their arms around their heads several times, and two of them even held their heads in their arms.

Wow, I can really give so many commands at the same time!

But if I count carefully, I have only eaten two level 2 crystal cores. Has my ability grown to this extent?

Perhaps, judging by the panel data, I might have the ability to achieve an A for growth!

"Yeah, good job."

Shu Yiran nodded slightly and rubbed the little girl's head again.

This simple and stupid little girl is so easy to deal with. Just a few words of trickery will make her reveal all her true colors.

She's so stupid yet cute. Such a thick-skinned and silly loli, I'm afraid even if you trick her into bed, she won't even realize it.

However, the fact that her ability could grow so rapidly was beyond her expectations.

She must hold on to such a person.

"Little guy, I am increasingly looking forward to your abilities after breaking through level three!"

The heroine rubbed my head with an inexplicable look in her eyes.

I thought she was encouraging me and nodded quickly.

Wow, I was looking forward to it too. System F really didn’t lie to me. It seems to be an incredible ability!

The heroine got the answer she wanted and continued to lead me deeper.

Now, she had another reason to go deeper. She had her eyes on the crystal core of the third-level zombie.

Chapter 17: The Male Lead Aotian

Long Aotian was originally an ordinary otaku living in City R. When the end of the world came, he was unconscious at home and luckily woke up.

But his father didn't make it and bit his mother to death in front of him.

After Long Aotian discovered it, he immediately rushed into the kitchen, picked up a kitchen knife and turned around to rescue her, but the zombie let go of his mother and rushed straight towards him.

Long Aotian had to fight a desperate battle with his father who had turned into a zombie at home.

He hurriedly dodged the attack, retreated to the kitchen, picked up the pot lid, blocked the zombie's sharp claws, and then chopped it down with a kitchen knife, cutting into the zombie's head and narrowly completing the counterattack.

Although he survived, Long Aotian lost both his parents in one day.

He deeply regretted his incompetence for not being able to save his mother, and hated the zombies of the apocalypse even more.

But he himself is an incompetent person, what can he do?

When Long Aotian wanted to take another look at his father and pulled back the kitchen knife with the blade on his head, a sparkling crystal was pulled out of his head and fell right in front of his eyes.

He quickly grabbed it and felt like he had found a treasure.

Without hesitation, just like the protagonists in the novels he had read countless times, Long Aotian swallowed it.

He was so hungry for power that he was willing to take the gamble even if it might cost him his life.

God was kind to him. After falling into a coma again, Long Aotian woke up and found that there was an extra menu in his mind.

Just like a game menu, there is even a talent tree of its own. The skills that can be learned are spread out like branches and leaves. Some unknown abilities are marked with question marks, and the cheapest known ability is the physical enhancement that can be obtained by consuming a first-level crystal core.

The crystal that he had just eaten was displayed in a corner of the menu, like the currency of the game, with the words "Level 1 Crystal Core X" marked on it.

Long Aotian was overjoyed and quickly chose to exchange. A menu popped up instantly saying "Exchange successful, level upgraded to Level 1 Psychic!"

A feeling of full of energy instantly washed over his body, and the feeling of power made him tremble with excitement.

He finally became a superpower!

Hunt for crystals and gain more abilities! Long Aotian picked up a new kitchen knife and broke into his neighbor's house, which had the door open.

There are too many zombies on the streets, so it is better to collect them in the community.

Soon, Long Aotian killed many ordinary zombies in a few days and learned most of the skills that could be activated by the first-level crystal core.

Speed ​​enhancement, strength enhancement, weapon machete x1, menu inventory grid x3, and so on.

There are so many strange things in the menu, even mysterious skills like increasing handsomeness, increasing height by 10cm, and becoming 10cm longer.

Of course Long Aotian couldn't let it go. How could any man refuse such a good thing? After ordering everything, Long Aotian's appearance changed from ordinary to the handsome face of a protagonist, and his height increased to 185cm, which made a certain loli envious.

The talent tree finally opened up the second-level skills, elemental skills.

Elemental skills have branches, and you must start by choosing from the small branches, such as thunder, fire, wind, water, grass, etc.

In pursuit of power, Long Aotian hesitated for a long time between the fire and thunder abilities and finally chose the fire ability talent.

As for the lightning system and the like, I intuitively feel that it will be a drag.

"Exchange successful, level upgraded to Level 2 Psychic!"

Long Aotian stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, thus fulfilling his dream as a otaku and creating a fireball with his bare hands.

Shooting a fireball seems to be the best I can do for now.

Next, you have to challenge the second-level zombies and hunt for their crystal cores.

Long Aotian had no choice but to look into the distance.

Soon, Long Aotian rushed out of the community, collected food, packed it and put it in the item column of the menu, and even had his own followers.

Long Aotian understood that if he wanted to accomplish something great, he must first have his own forces and his own companions.

When he broke out of R City, his followers and companions already numbered more than 20 people in five or two cars. He led everyone and joined the R base.

A month passed, and Long Aotian successfully became a team leader with his powerful fire ability, daring character, and work attitude of killing anyone he saw.

During this period, he successfully strengthened his fire ability and stored enough second-level crystal cores to upgrade his first third-level ability.

During this month, he also came into contact with many other people with special abilities and gradually realized that he was different from others.

With the help of the menu, he already possesses both physical enhancement and fire abilities. In the third-level abilities that will soon be unlocked, he will also have mental abilities.

He is the only one who possesses such comprehensive abilities.

He has never told anyone about his true abilities, he only said to others that he is a fire-type mutant.

The speed at which his abilities were growing, and his enormous potential for growth, were so extraordinary that he gradually came to feel that perhaps he could eventually develop the full capabilities of this menu, and finally stand at the top of the world and become the savior of mankind.

Long Aotian's heart was filled with emotion. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. He was full of confidence in his bright future and secretly vowed to destroy all the zombies that had destroyed his family.

On this day, the top management of the base summoned Long Aotian.

The next task the base gave him was to escort a senior official from his base to the southern base to negotiate with them on behalf of base R.

They had already confirmed each other's existence and had just recently made contact, hoping to find an alliance with them.

According to the report from their team, there have been frequent and terrifying roars of corpses in R City recently. It seems that a never-before-seen third-level zombie has appeared. If it cannot be eliminated, it will threaten R City and even the entire world.

After receiving the order, Long Aotian immediately set off with his team members and the official.

Unexpectedly, the way to the southern base requires passing through R City. Although Long Aotian has clearly chosen to bypass it, the roar of the car still attracted the attention of the third-level zombie.

The opponent seemed to be able to conceal its own breath and launched a sneak attack on Long Aotian and others at an extremely high speed. What was even more terrifying was that this zombie already possessed preliminary intelligence, and even if they drove away, it would be difficult to avoid its pursuit.

It was as if the zombie knew that the people in the car couldn't keep moving endlessly.

Long Aotian and a group of six people, riding in a military jeep, heard a few loud roars of corpses that resounded through the sky, and then they were surrounded by low-level zombies.

The number of low-level zombies blocking the road increased, and they gathered more and more, forming a zombie tide.

Long Aotian and others did not dare to get out of the car to deal with it. The roar made them feel uneasy.

Since they could no longer drive on the main road, Long Aotian and others immediately drove the car into the wilderness.

But the other party had no intention of letting them go. No one knew what method the zombies used to lock onto Long Aotian and the others. No matter which direction they went, there would always be a tide of zombies stopping them from moving forward.

Chapter 18 The Protagonists Reunite

Long Aotian guessed that this zombie might be targeting him.

He can also feel it when doing missions that compared to other teammates with special abilities, zombies are more inclined to attack him.

Perhaps, the price for having special and powerful abilities is that one is particularly attracted to zombies, making him even more dangerous.

But at this time, their luck was not very good.

Long Aotian and his group drove away for a long distance, knocking down many zombies that were blocking the road. However, they were attacked by level 2 zombies mixed in with the ordinary zombies. The front of the car was damaged and could no longer be driven.

After several people got out of the car to check, they cried out in bad luck. The thunder and wind ability users attacked at the same time, and as if to vent their anger, they shot out two huge wind blades wrapped in lightning, which instantly cut the level 2 zombie in half.

"Captain Long! The car can't be driven anymore, but we have already traveled over 300 kilometers. Those level 3 zombies won't chase us anymore, right?"

Long Aotian almost slapped him.

"Don't always think positively! If that guy hadn't continued to come, what would have happened to these zombies approaching us now!"

Long Aotian knew clearly that with his attraction to the zombies, they would not stop until they achieved their goal.

This zombie tide has probably gathered all the zombies nearby. The only densely populated big city nearby is City R, and the zombies there have long been left behind.

"Everyone, walk. This place is not too far from the southern base. We should be there soon after walking a few dozen kilometers!"

When Long Aotian gave the order, the senior official immediately looked miserable. Long Aotian and others were all people with special abilities and could walk hundreds of kilometers without any problem, but he couldn't do it!

But my life is at stake now, and I can’t say anything for the moment.

Several people took weapons, resources and food from the car and started walking.

Even if they were driving, they would still be surrounded by zombies, let alone walking. After a while, Long Aotian discovered that they were surrounded by a large number of ordinary zombies.

"Suppressive fire!"

Everyone took out their guns and even equipped themselves with rocket launchers. After a round of shooting, they easily repelled the tide of zombies.

The team members all breathed a sigh of relief, but Long Aotian frowned secretly. This wave of zombies was actually just delaying their pace. The level 3 zombies must be chasing them from behind at this moment.

Although we had driven away from them for quite a distance before, we still didn't know how long it would take for these level 3 zombies to catch up.

Long Aotian looked around and saw that all of them were good brothers he had met in the cruel end times, people he could trust in his future.

If I can't even protect them, how can I protect all of humanity, and how can I end the apocalypse!

I can't wait any longer. Even though I have been hesitant before, I must advance to the third-level Psychic here and now!

Long Aotian opened his menu and decisively gave up a number of more aggressive spiritual powers. Instead, he clicked on the power that was most suitable for the current situation, spiritual perception.

"Exchange successful, level upgraded to level three superpower!"

Spiritual perception can promptly sense when powerful zombies appear nearby, and when actively activated, it can also detect the approximate location of nearby humans and zombies.

It sounds like a useless ability and has no offensiveness at all, but it is a very suitable ability for a team and can greatly increase the ability to survive in the apocalypse.

Long Aotian doesn't have to worry about his attack power. Now his third-level skill tree has been opened. As long as he has enough crystal cores, his fire ability can also be advanced to level three.

Unable to wait, Long Aotian quickly closed his eyes, meditated with all his strength, and activated his spiritual perception skills.

On the map, a small dot slowly appeared not far away and was standing not far away. There were about fifty zombies around him.

"Someone!"

Long Aotian was overjoyed. Anyone who dared to face the tide of zombies must be a powerful psychic. Their situation was urgent and they needed to increase their combat power. No matter whether the other party was willing or not, they had to drag him down with them!

"Follow me! Head toward that hill over there, load your bullets, and be ready. There may be people fighting over there!"

Everyone received the order, and although they didn't understand how Long Aotian knew it, they still did as he said.
