Cold-blooded Undercover Master

Chapter 23 Variant Corn

The zombies near Zhanlong City were only scattered in the wilderness because of the mercenaries and the military. It was not much of a climate. Adding on the fact that there were several hidden castles outside Zhanlong City observing the zombies, the vicinity of Zhanlong City was relatively safe.

"Puchi." The Nether Emperor's spear tip easily pierced through the zombie's head. Following the explosion of flames, the zombie's head was blown away.

"Chirp. Chirp." Fire Phoenix happily pounced on the zombie, its sharp beak cutting open the zombie's spine and sucking in the marrow fluid.

Mutated beasts feed on zombies, but Fire Phoenix is very picky about food. He only eats zombie marrow liquid and has no interest in zombie rotting flesh.

Fire Phoenix's pickiness made Kong Yun very headache. After eating the most valuable thing on the zombie's body, the value of the zombie was greatly reduced.

Furthermore, Kong Yun was acting alone. He didn't have that many places to store zombies.

"A headache." Kong Yun lay on the tree and sighed as he watched the fire phoenix jumping about on his belly.

Back then, he only knew that this mutated beast was very powerful and that raising it would be very powerful. However, he didn't expect that raising a mutated beast would be so costly. He would probably have to fill in the income from hunting zombies in the wild.

"Hmm? Are you here?" Kong Yun's ears twitched as he heard the rumbling of the proliferation mecha in the distance.

Kong Yun put away the Secluded Emperor and hid in the darkness with the Fire Phoenix.

"That brat ran really fast. He disappeared without a trace." The mercenary in the armor snorted.

"Young Master gave the order to die. He wanted him to die without a complete corpse." A few proliferation mecha beside him said.

"If anyone completes the mission, the young master will grant him a Dragon-ranked proliferation mecha . We may not be able to earn that many points of survival in our lifetime. Brothers, this is a good opportunity."

Kong Yun looked at the mercenary squad. There were a total of five people. The equipment of the proliferation mecha was relatively ordinary. There were two power-type proliferation mecha , two speed-type proliferation mecha , and one firepower-type proliferation mecha . This was the standard equipment for a mercenary squad.

The Myriad Kings Mercenary Group's mercenary squad did not have laser weapons. Kong Yun heaved a sigh of relief. Metal weapons could not injure him, but laser weapons were different. His current defense might not be able to withstand laser weapons.

Kong Yun condensed the metal ability in his right hand, and the Blazing Flame Spear appeared in Kong Yun's hand. The metal ability urged the Blazing Flame Spear to spin violently.

"Whoosh." The moment the five mercenaries did not react, the Blazing Flame Spear spun and flew out, aiming at the firepower mecha.

"Bang!" The rotating Blazing Spear pierced through the chest of the armor like a missile. A large hole appeared in the armor, and fresh blood continuously dripped down.

"Enemy attack." The captain of the mercenary squad cried out in alarm. However, just as he finished speaking, a proliferation mecha exploded beside him.

In the blink of an eye, the mercenary squad had lost two colonial mechs, and they didn't even know what the enemy was.

Kong Yun took a deep breath and condensed the Blazing Flame Spear and the Spirit Emperor Metal Ability one after another. However, there were only three armors left, and his remaining abilities could deal with them.

"Chirp. Chirp." Standing on Kong Yun's shoulder, Huo Feng suddenly cried out excitedly. With her flapping wings, her pink body suddenly flew out like a bolt of pink lightning.

"Bang!" The head of another armored mecha exploded and was forcefully pierced through by the fire phoenix!

"Chirp. Chirp." After the phoenix pierced through a mecha, its mouth opened and a fireball spat out from its mouth.

"Bang!" The temperature of the fireball was very high, and the armor that was hit had melted into a small hole. Naturally, the people inside could no longer die.

Kong Yun was also shocked by Huo Feng's shocking combat strength. A newborn little fellow actually possessed such terrifying strength, able to easily defeat a Ferocious Dragon-ranked Growth Armor.

There was only one captain left in the entire mercenary squad. He looked at the pink little fellow in shock. All of his members had died.

"Mutated beast." The captain cried out in alarm as he controlled the proliferation mecha to flee.

However, how could Kong Yun let him leave? A Blazing Flame Spear pierced through the air, and it was even faster than the proliferation mecha . It quickly caught up to the proliferation mecha and nailed it to the ground.

This mercenary squad was completely annihilated!

Fire Phoenix jumped around Kong Yun's shoulder, seemingly claiming credit. Kong Yun smiled helplessly and took out a tube of zombie marrow liquid from his backpack. Fire Phoenix quickly took it away and sucked the zombie marrow liquid from the tree.

Kong Yun withdrew his three spears. Looking at the five broken armor, a smile appeared on his face. He suddenly thought of a good idea.

Kong Yun walked in front of the armor and placed his hands on it. The metal ability in his body began to flow, and the liquid metal began to wrap around the armor's body.

Although the size of the proliferation mecha was huge, it was far inferior to the Spirit Emperor's Blazing Flame Spear in terms of metal. The metal part of the proliferation mecha was quickly disintegrated into Kong Yun's body by the forbidden spell.

Kong Yun couldn't help but close his eyes. He could clearly feel the metal entering his body and converting it into his own strength.

When the armor was completely devoured by Kong Yun, the metal ability in Kong Yun's body also increased by a small amount.

However, Kong Yun didn't refine this armor for this purpose. The metal ability in Kong Yun's body quickly circulated, and Kong Yun's body also turned into metal. The liquid metal was constantly wriggling, and Kong Yun's shape was gradually changing, becoming taller and taller. It actually turned into a armor.

"Sure enough, it's exactly what I thought." Kong Yun laughed loudly. His metal ability could restore what he had swallowed, even if it was a planted mecha.

After Kong Yun devoured the remaining four armors, his metal ability had increased by a large margin.

"Metal, I have to swallow more metal." Kong Yun took a deep breath. Only by swallowing more metal could his ability become stronger.

"What? One of our mercenary squads has disappeared?" A day later, Long Zaifei's incredible roar came from the Myriad Kings Mercenary Squad.

"The one who disappeared was the Silver Sword Mercenary Squad. We completely lost their signal twenty hours ago."

"Last place, where was the last place their signal appeared?" Long Zaifei asked. He didn't care about the life and death of the Silver Sword Mercenary Squad at all. There were too many such squads in the Myriad Kings Mercenary Squad. What he cared about was whether Kong Yun did it or not.

"Near Highway 4, we only saw traces of battle there, and the Silver Sword Mercenary Squad's proliferation mecha had all disappeared."

Long Zaifei snorted, "Send Dragon King, God King, and Demon King over immediately. Find out what happened. If you find Kong Yun, kill him."

The most elite of the Myriad King Mercenary Group were the Dragon King, God King, and Demon King Mercenary Groups. They were all guarded by Dragon-level Growth Armor and had the ability to hunt down Titan zombies alone. The three mercenary groups were even stronger than the Berserk Battle Mercenary Groups.

Even one of the three mercenary squads had the strength to kill Kong Yun, not to mention the fact that the three mercenary squads were already able to fight against the government army.

Kong Yun's footsteps did not stop because of the Silver Sword Mercenary Squad. The zombies near Zhan Long City could no longer satisfy him. He needed more zombies and was about to leave Zhan Long City further away.

Back when he was a scavenger, Kong Yun had followed a small group of mercenaries. According to what they said, there was a small town about twenty miles away from Zhan Long City. There were a large number of zombies inside, and there were even Titan zombies.

If it was in the past, Kong Yun wouldn't even dare to act alone in the wilderness, much less leave Zhan Long City for twenty miles.

However, Kong Yun was no longer the same as before. After awakening his metal ability, he was already a top ranked expert in Zhan Long City.

"We're going to a place full of zombies. Do you want to go?" Kong Yun teased the fire phoenix.

Fire Phoenix nodded. To him, zombies were food. A lot of zombies meant a lot of food.

The IQ of mutated beasts was very high. Wild mutated beasts were hard to tame and could not communicate with humans. However, mutated beasts that used beast taming potions could. It was said online that some mutated beasts had similar IQ to humans. The only drawback was that they were unable to speak.

"Alright, let's go kill the zombies." Kong Yun laughed loudly.

Although the outside of the city is dangerous, it is also a treasure land filled with wealth. Of course, the prerequisite for obtaining this wealth is that you have the strength to survive outside the city.

Due to the Heavenly Awakening Virus, many things on Earth had mutated. Apart from zombies and mutated beasts, some plants had also mutated.

Although Kong Yun was mentally prepared, when he saw a corn plant as tall as a tree, he was still shocked.

It was not the season to grow corn, but it was full of corn cobs the size of a human.

"Kacha." Kong Yun jumped up and slashed his saber, cutting off a corn stalk.

"What a hard coat." Kong Yun was shocked to discover that this corn coat was like steel.

"Pu." The metal ability condensed a knife and easily sliced open the corn coat, revealing the golden corn kernels inside.

"This thing is mutated. Can it be eaten?" This thought flashed through Kong Yun's mind.

"Chirp. Chirp." Huo Feng shouted excitedly. With a flash of her body, her sharp beak pierced through the corn kernel and swallowed one of the corn kernels.

"The fire phoenix can be eaten. Is it alright if I eat it?" Kong Yun thought to himself, but when he thought of the fire phoenix eating the marrow of the zombie, Kong Yun immediately dispelled this thought.
