Chapter 849: Chapter 849: Strike a Cool Pose

Among the survivors, the superpowers of the Superpower Users were considered the strongest.

But resting by this decaying, oppressive seaside was almost impossible.

Their spirits were in an extremely tense state.

The tension was so taught, one never knew when it might snap.

"Captain Zhang, we..."

The Superpower Users wanted to ask some questions, but Captain Zhang ignored them.

Instead, he quietly tidied up his clothes, a neat suit, a white shirt, clean and sharp.

"Roar――"

The roar of a behemoth echoed from the depths of the sea.

Another zombie sea creature had joined the battle.

In the sunset’s glow, they vaguely saw a long, giant snake.

It had scales that shimmered with a green light, a massive form, seemingly without decayed skin.

This was a Zombie King Snake.

The Zombie King Snake’s first target was neither the zombies in the ocean nor those zombie sea creatures controlled by Zhang Yiming’s brainwaves.

It was the figures on land.

Hiss―

A suffocating sound echoed, carrying a chilling wind that forced everyone to take a step back.

"Young Zhang Yiming, take a break for a bit. Since we’re a team, it’s not right for you to act alone."

Captain Zhang slightly loosened his tie and took off his suit jacket, handing it to Bai Xiqin.

Hoping to build rapport.

Bai Xiqin raised an eyebrow, took the jacket, and casually handed it to Leng Yebai.

Leng Yebai, in turn, tossed it to the ground.

Captain Zhang: ...

Failed to build rapport, should’ve just put it on the ground.

Zhang Yiming glanced at the jacket on the ground, not responding to Captain Zhang, just quietly standing to the side.

He didn’t seem to have any intention of taking action.

Captain Zhang took a step toward the Zombie King Snake, just as the Zombie King Snake rushed out from the black waters.

Its huge body left deep furrows on the beach, and its length, similar to that of a Zombie Kun, was suffocatingly oppressive.

Its upper half rose up, looking down at the man walking toward it, with a human-like serious expression on its snake face.

It could feel Captain Zhang’s strength.

A strange aura radiated from Captain Zhang, and the surroundings moved without wind, with terrifying energy pouring out.

When Captain Zhang fully released his aura, the entire space stilled for just a moment.

Eighth Rank Superpower User!

The highest rank a human Superpower User had ever achieved, the only Eighth Rank Superpower User!

The entire body of the Zombie King Snake shone blue, its mouth slightly ajar, long fangs occasionally dripping corrosive venom.

The venom dripped onto the beach, dissolving decayed remains, forming large holes.

"The weather’s getting chilly, I bet everyone must be cold?"

As Captain Zhang spoke, an eerie red flame suddenly erupted over his body.

The fire, like a blaze from beyond the heavens, turned the closest sand into semi-transparent glass-like substance.

The strong flames raised the surrounding temperature, making everyone feel warmer.

But the chill in their hearts remained unshaken.

The zombie animals they saw today upended their perception, with the scariest not being the feral zombies.

But was the terrifying undead sea beasts from the abyss.

Compared to them, zombies became almost adorable.

Splash――

The Zombie King Snake spat out black liquid, emitting a foul stench.

The liquid gushed forth, a huge black water column surging toward Captain Zhang, mixed with immense pressure.

With just their eyes, they could almost see tangible superpower energy.

No one hesitated to believe that if the black liquid rushed toward a hillside, it could demolish the entire hill.

Captain Zhang calmly confronted it, the bizarrely red flame colliding straight with the black liquid.

Sizzle...

The black liquid instantly evaporated into black mist, slowly dissipating around them.

The stench became more intense.

Captain Zhang slightly furrowed his brow, feeling nauseated by the smell.

The red flame instantly turned into frost, the surrounding temperature dropping rapidly, and the black liquid was frozen into ice pillars.

The foul smell faded somewhat, but the whole beach was still filled with a rotten odor.

Hissss—

The Zombie King Snake, seeing its venom frozen, began to move swiftly, wrapping itself around Captain Zhang.

Its body tightened, trying to crush Captain Zhang with immense force.

Captain Zhang’s height was almost equivalent to the Zombie King Snake’s body width, and with him surrounded inside, his figure quickly disappeared from view.

"Captain Zhang!"

The Superpower Users exclaimed in shock, finally springing into action.

A myriad of colored energies were thrown at the Zombie King Snake from afar, hoping to save Captain Zhang.

They understood the power gap.

Yet, the strong Captain Zhang was the hope for humanity, and with him around, they always felt more secure.

However, this act of desperation also made them realize the gap between themselves and the creature.

Usually capable of piercing a zombie’s head, their powers didn’t leave a mark on the Zombie King Snake.

Indeed, the Zombie King Snake didn’t even glance their way, treating them like insignificant insects.

The disparity in strength was too vast, with no comparison.

"Roar――"

Just when everyone thought Captain Zhang would be enclosed to death, the giant snake suddenly let out an angry roar.

Then, its head abruptly exploded, and a plastic button barely visible to the naked eye shot out from the Zombie King Snake’s temple.

With a loud bang, the Zombie King Snake collapsed weakly onto the beach, its head slowly oozing black blood.

The sound of tearing flesh echoed as the Zombie King Snake’s body began to split from the abdomen.

With a cracking sound, the snake’s spine broke, and the entire body split in two.

The black internal organs didn’t gush out, kept in place by an invisible control power.

Captain Zhang walked calmly out from the center of the Zombie King Snake, his white shirt untainted by a drop of black blood.

A button stained with black blood somehow returned to his hand.

Clear water rinsed the button, restoring its cleanliness.

After walking quite a distance, Captain Zhang’s fingers moved slightly.

With a puff, black blood and internal organs gushed out from the Zombie King Snake’s broken body.

Mixed among them were remnants of undigested fish, as well as human limbs.

The dismembered limbs were mixed with black sludgy mucus, indistinguishable as remains of zombie animals or normal creatures.

"This guy was quite tough."

Captain Zhang lightly clapped his hands, pocketing the plastic button, sighing softly.

One of his sleeve cuffs was missing a button, making it look asymmetrical compared to the other cuff.

Quite unsightly.

Captain Zhang quickly noticed the issue and took off the other button, pocketing it, then rolled up his white shirt sleeves.

Exposing his fair, muscular forearms, giving him an air of vitality.

"Brother Zhang, you’re incredible!"

Bai Yifan praised Captain Zhang without any reservation and gave a thumbs up.
