Free Web NovelChapter 204: Let Me End Your Life!
Because his Fire Blaze skill had a duration, Theodore could not help but be able to fend off these tree zombies for that duration. It would be great if Theodore could kill this zombie within that time, but he was already very satisfied when their original plan could succeed.
"Don’t expect you to escape from me!" Theodore gritted his teeth. He was excited to kick this zombie’s ass.
The zombie also pulled its tendrils back for fear of being hit by the fire attack from Theodore’s sword. It no longer dared to pull out its tendrils.
Because it had become like this, Roxanne slowly felt that their car was no longer being held back by anything visible. The only remaining problem was the branches that still insisted on blocking their way.
For this matter, Geoffrey himself wanted to straighten out this problem, saying, "Leave it to me. I’ll go back to throwing grenades in the forest. You just focus on escaping," Geoffrey said confidently.
Geoffrey did not want to rely solely on Theodore to handle this unfavorable situation, given that his hand was no longer injured, which would make it easier for him to assist in their escape.
"Alright, I entrust that task to you. We will leave as soon as these branches stop acting up," Roxanne replied, nodding her head and entrusting this to Geoffrey.
As Geoffrey began throwing grenades toward the two sides of the tree beside them, the branches started to shrink and return to where they were, as the tree that was facilitating them had been burned by the explosion from the grenade Geoffrey had thrown.
After seeing the opportunity come to her, Roxanne immediately stepped on the gas pedal to escape from that place before these trees regenerated and made trouble for them again.
With great effort, Roxanne and Geoffrey managed to escape from the road, and only Theodore, who still had to fight with the tree zombies, was left.
Fortunately, Theodore realized that Roxanne and Geoffrey had managed to escape, so at least the pressure on his side was not as heavy as before. This time, Theodore just needed to find an opening to escape from this tree zombie.
From the beginning, Theodore also does not intend to kill this tree zombie because he is not sure he can defeat it. For some reason, Theodore is now starting to believe that he can beat it; he just won’t focus too much on it.
Theodore’s priority right now was to escape safely and catch up with Roxanne and Geoffrey.
The duration of Theodore’s Fire Blaze skill was only 2 minutes. Theodore had to exert all his current strength to deal with this tree zombie; otherwise, he would have no chance of getting out of this unfavorable situation.
"System, do you think I can defeat this zombie?" While continuing to swing his sword against the tree zombie, Theodore also tried to communicate with his system.
[It wouldn’t hurt for the host to give it a try. Given that the host has obtained a skill that is the weakness of the zombie, there is still a possibility for the host to defeat this zombie boss] free𝑤ebnovel.com
"Hearing these words of yours makes me think of defeating this zombie, but that’s actually a trap, right? I’m sure this zombie won’t be that easy to defeat," Theodore said, then rolled his eyes.
Theodore did not want to fall into the lure of a system that looked promising; for now, he would just stick to his original plan.
[You better not ask me!]
In response to the system’s anger, Theodore just laughed and chose to corner this tree zombie and look for an opportunity to escape from there.
When the cooldown of his Vanishing Strike skill was over, Theodore immediately made a combo attack with his current fiery sword. Theodore was sure that the critical strike triggered by the Vanishing Strike would hurt more with his current flaming sword.
As Theodore launched the attack towards the tree zombie’s neck, he could see that the swing of his sword managed to cut the zombie’s skin, and he could even see that the cut from his sword was quite deep.
Purplish-black blood gushed out from the cut, instantly accompanied by a groan of pain from the tree zombie, which made it kneel down while holding its neck, which continued to bleed.
At first, Theodore was pleased with this fact, but he decided against it when he could see that as the purplish-black blood gushing out of the zombie dripped onto the ground, the ground beneath it immediately crumbled like acid.
Not only that but when the blood began to vaporize in the air, the air turned into purplish smoke-like toxic fumes.
"Damn it! These zombies are really troublesome!" Theodore, fortunately, immediately understood the current situation.
Theodore couldn’t let this zombie live. The forest would be completely polluted if this zombie lived, so he needed to kill it.
Because this zombie was in a weakened state, Theodore immediately took advantage of this opportunity to finish it off immediately. While his Fire Blaze skill was still active, his time was really limited, and he only had 30 seconds left.
Theodore couldn’t wait until Vanishing Strike’s cooldown was over, so he had to rely on his Slash skill and also his attack speed. Within 30 seconds, he had to be able to kill this damn zombie.
No longer hesitating, Theodore immediately attacked the tree zombie blindly; he did not stop swinging his sword to slash the zombie’s body until he died completely.
Fortunately, with the help of Fire Blaze, Theodore was able to increase his damage output on the zombie; as a final blow to kill the zombie, Theodore decided to stab the zombie’s neck and cut its neck in one slash.
Because the blood of the zombie was very dangerous and contained poison, Theodore immediately summoned his crossbow and took several fire arrows. Inevitably, Theodore had to burn this zombie carcass so that its blood would not continue to come out and bring disaster to this forest.
"I finally don’t have to deal with this damn zombie," Theodore said, falling to his knees with a gasp.
Slowly, the fire that enveloped the sword in Theodore’s hand began to disappear, indicating that the duration of his Fire Blaze skill had run out. Then, shortly after that, Theodore received another series of notifications from the system telling him he had leveled up.
"Looks like I got a lot of exp points after killing this zombie. Let’s see if he also dropped a mana crystal?" Theodore waited until the fire around the zombie’s body died down, and then he dared to search around the zombie’s body.
Near the zombie’s head, Theodore saw a purplish black Crystal that he had never seen before; he could conclude that the Crystal in his hand was not the mana Crystal he knew.
"Is this the new version of the mana Crystal? I don’t know, I better keep it," Theodore muttered and put the purple-black Crystal into his sacred dimension.
Theodore then took out the last black car from the sacred dimension; he had to leave immediately to catch up with Roxanne and Geoffrey, who had already left.
