Rebirth of the Zombie Age

Chapter 18 Ambush
The warm light of the setting sun passed through many obstacles, shining on this dead soil, and the slightly cool spring breeze blew across the ground, but it couldn't make Xu Hao relax his vigilance.

The mutation of this primordial species was something he had never expected, especially the light of wisdom emanating from the eyes, which was the reason why he was really afraid.

Although powerful zombies are terrifying, they are not invincible. Human beings who have accumulated thousands of years of wisdom cannot be defeated so easily.

But I am afraid that zombies are not only stronger than humans, but also smarter than humans.

Fortunately, this zombie's intelligence level is obviously not that high, and instinct still occupies the dominant position in its body.

Although it was slightly doubtful, it still walked towards the clothes, and the speed was getting faster and faster.

Xu Hao still didn't move, but his hands were already holding the knife tightly.

He chose a good location. The wind blows in from the entrance of the construction site, passes through the clothes used as bait, passes his hiding place, and floats backwards.Even if the soil cannot 100% cover up his smell, the hormones on the clothes are enough to make the other party unaware of his presence.

To make the bait more realistic, he also put his clothes on a dead body, leaning against a post.

This is a very simple trap. The bottom of the pillar has been broken, and if it is moved slightly, it will fall over.

If the zombie could take his eyes off his clothes and glance up, he would find that the dozen or so steel frames at the top of the construction site were already crumbling. As long as the only supporting pillar fell over, a chain reaction would start. Smash them all.

Unfortunately, it has never encountered a similar trap, so naturally it has no corresponding experience.

Just ask, who would think of using traps to deal with zombies?

Rather than spending so much time, expending so much energy, and setting up a trap that may not work, it is better to escape early.

This is a very correct idea, but Xu Hao doesn't think so.

He wanted to do the opposite, since something threatened his safety, he would definitely try to solve it instead of running away blindly.

This kind of stubborn character has been fully reflected in his previous life. If it wasn't because he was too obsessed with avenging his friends, so that he could not listen to other people's advice, with his ability, even if he couldn't be as aggressive as those superpowers. You can get the wind, you can get the rain, but it is always no problem to mix like a fish in water.

With the sound of a piece of wood slipping, the zombie had already jumped on the clothes, and the pillar leaned towards it.

It didn't pay much attention to the slow falling speed, and moved a position to the side at will, avoiding the falling pillar.

On the contrary, being cheated made it go into a rage.

But then, there was a whistling sound produced by a heavy object scraping through the air. When it raised its head, its pupils shrank suddenly, and it saw a steel frame weighing several tons falling at an unimaginable speed, covering its surrounding area.

And Xu Hao also jumped out from the ground at the same time, and quickly approached it with a knife tightly.

The double threats from the sky and the ground obviously made it a little overwhelmed, and moved around for a while, not knowing how to deal with it.

With the dull sound of the steel frame falling to the ground, the construction site was already full of dust. While the flying dust blocked Xu Hao's sight, it also covered his figure.

The zombie couldn't see him, but he could judge its specific location based on the movement of the zombie.

The particles refract the brilliance of the sun, like golden sands, bursting out with a fascinating and luxurious color, but there are infinite murderous intentions hidden inside, and from time to time there are a few roars of zombies, as well as Xu Hao's muffled groans.

When the dust settled again, the situation suddenly became clear again.

Xu Hao didn't stop at all, and fled outwards at an astonishing speed.

Despite his careful preparations, the balance of victory was not tilted in his favor.

The speed and strength of this mutant zombie were beyond his imagination. After the initial panic, he was able to dodge to the side the moment the steel frame fell, except for being swept to the shoulder collarbone by the tail of a steel frame that had nowhere to dodge. There were only knife marks left by Xu Hao taking advantage of the chaos on his body.

There was a knife mark that could even touch the back of its forehead. If it weren't for the great increase in muscle strength, it might have been seriously injured.

And Xu Hao himself was not feeling well. Looking at the five deep scratches on his left abdomen, he frowned. Apart from making mistakes in judging the gap between the enemy and us, what he couldn't tolerate was his own greed.

He was too impatient when he stabbed that blow, and wanted the blade to go deeper, and then deeper, hoping to finish the opponent in one fell swoop.

It was because of this greed that the other party seized the opportunity and slashed at his lower abdomen with sharp claws.

If he hadn't retreated in time, there would be more than five scratch marks on his left abdomen, maybe it would already be a big hole.

However, the newborn species, which was temporarily defeated in the first confrontation, seemed to be a little hard to accept the fact that it was injured. Its teeth were gritted, and an uncontrollable anger flashed in its eyes, as if a long-lost An erupting volcano, and Xu Hao is the chief culprit of this volcano.

Facing the escape of its prey, it reacted quickly and chased after it almost at the same time.

In just a few seconds of sprinting, it was only a body distance away from Xu Hao. Just as it opened its excited fangs and reached out to grab Xu Hao, Xu Hao suddenly jumped into the air, barely dodging its attack. claws.

But this was only a temporary solution to the predicament. Xu Hao, who was in the air, couldn't use his strength and couldn't dodge. Like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, he could only watch helplessly as the opponent got closer and closer to him.

Of course, it didn't let go of this opportunity, its body still maintained its forward momentum, and at the same time, it raised its neck and opened its bloody mouth to bite upwards.

There was a cold light reflected on the sharp teeth, which was in stark contrast to the bright red shreds of meat mixed in the gaps, and bursts of stench came out from them, which made people sick.

At such a close distance, Xu Hao could even clearly see the excitement in the zombie's eyes after he was about to succeed and the mockery of the prey's needless struggle.

Facing such a situation, he didn't feel nervous at all, and even a slight sarcasm flashed in his eyes.

Intuition told this zombie that something was wrong, just when its sharp teeth were about to touch the prey, it suddenly felt the ground under its feet go soft, and then its whole body fell down.

Xu Hao also finally landed, but he didn't stop for a moment, and continued to flee, without even looking into the hole.

After seeing the opponent's strength, he didn't feel that this trap could do anything, as long as he could hold it back for a while.

That was also a trap he had set up early on, with sharp steel bars all over the bottom, originally thinking of inflicting more or less trauma on the opponent before fighting in person, but unexpectedly it became a sharp weapon for him to get rid of the opponent now.

Just as he expected, the reaction of the newborn species was still astonishing. Under such unexpected circumstances, one hand unexpectedly grabbed the edge of the trap, and then quickly escaped from the ground trap with all four limbs.

The successive setbacks were obviously beyond its expectation. It roared, like a lion enraged by its prey, and chased after it persistently.
