Chapter 1724 There is a wolf before and a tiger behind

Li Luo subconsciously glanced at the stairs out of the corner of his eye, and his heart sank instantly: at least two hundred high-level mutant zombies were pouring in from all directions of the ruins, densely blocking the stairs, and it was pitch black with no end in sight.

Leading the group was a mutant zombie that was three times the size of an ordinary zombie. Its arms were like thick tree trunks and its skin was bluish-gray. Every step it took caused the ground to shake slightly. Its cloudy eyes stared fixedly at the direction of the fourth floor, obviously attracted by the energy fluctuations from the previous collision of superpowers.

"Damn it!" Li Luo cursed in his heart, and his hand holding the lightsaber couldn't help but tighten.

With a mysterious "transformed monster" in front of her and more than two hundred zombies surrounding her from behind, she was trapped in the corridor on the fourth floor with no way to retreat.

In that moment of distraction, the power of the lightsaber unconsciously weakened a bit, and the mysterious man took the opportunity to step back two steps, barely avoiding the sharp edge of the lightsaber. The originally advantageous situation was instantly reversed and became precarious.

The roars of the zombies were getting closer and closer, and the dust in the corridor was shaken down.

The fight between Li Luo and the mysterious man had obviously alarmed the nearby zombies, and they rushed towards the office building frantically like sharks smelling blood.

"It seems that we have more than enough 'nutrients' for today." The mysterious man suddenly laughed, and black energy began to spread downstairs. "The symbiote loves to devour the energy of zombies. Once it's full, even your replication ability won't be able to save you!"

Li Luo ignored his taunts and stared downstairs - the first few dozen ordinary zombies that rushed over had already reached the door of the office building. They crowded at the door, their rotten arms constantly scratching at the iron door, and the "clang clang" sound echoed in the corridor.

But before they stepped into the corridor, the energy fields around Li Luo and the mysterious man suddenly collided with each other - the golden light energy and the black dark energy intertwined in the air, forming an invisible magnetic field. The edge of the magnetic field was glowing with a faint purple halo, like a barrier, covering the entire office building.

"Sizzle—" The first zombie just stretched out his hand and touched the edge of the magnetic field, and his body was instantly turned into ashes, without even a bone residue left.

The subsequent zombies were not spared either. As long as they stepped into the magnetic field, they would be torn into pieces by the invisible force, and the ashes floated down the stairwell like black snow.

Seeing this, the mutant zombie roared and rushed towards the magnetic field. It was huge in size and had a strong impact force. It thought it could break through the magnetic field, but as soon as it touched the edge of the field, its skin began to "sizzle", black blood seeped out of its pores, and its body melted at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few seconds, the mutated zombie turned into a pool of black mud and flowed down the ground into the sewer, without even having time to let out a scream.

"Even zombies are afraid of this energy field. How long do you think you can last?" The mysterious man said, and suddenly mobilized his lightning ability - a black lightning shot out from his fingertips and struck Li Luo.

Lightning is extremely fast and makes a crackling sound when it cuts through the air, even causing the surrounding magnetic field to fluctuate.

Li Luo was well prepared and immediately mobilized her metal-related abilities. Several broken steel bars around her suddenly flew up and formed a metal barrier in front of her.

With a "bang", black lightning struck the metal barrier, and a big hole was instantly created in the barrier. Black smoke was still coming out of the broken steel bars.
