Holding Their Own Space, the Family Returns to the Apocalypse

208: Oops, I’ll control my strength.The others were also so shocked they didn’t know what to say.

What are these Devil Frogs doing?

Acting as a wall?

“Sister Ai Yue, what should we do?” Ye Rui stared at the densely packed zombies, her eyes filled with confusion.

Ai Yue also found it difficult. Kill them?

There were so many Devil Frogs, and they were thick-skinned and fleshy. Although killing them was easy, their corpses were damn huge. If they all lay there, it would be a struggle just to climb over them to kill the zombies.

Ai Yue frowned slightly and looked at Gong Qiuqiu beside her. “What do you think? Do you have any good ideas?”

Gong Qiuqiu snapped out of it and gave a bitter smile. “What good ideas could I have? We can only kill them!”

“With our strength, killing them is simple, but what about the corpses? If we don’t deal with the bodies, we won’t be able to get through,” Mo Li added.

Hearing their conversation, Ai Guosheng raised an eyebrow. “The corpses are easy too. Leave them to me; I’ll eliminate the bodies!”

Ai Yue slapped her forehead. “That’s right! My dad’s Superpower is Annihilation. He can guarantee those Devil Frog corpses disappear without even a speck of dust left.”

After a brief discussion, the group dove straight into the Devil Frogs. For some reason, these Devil Frogs had dull eyes and remained motionless, allowing Ai Yue and the others to kill them without fighting back.

Ai Yue and the others were bewildered, not understanding why these zombie Devil Frogs weren’t moving.

These were completely different from the zombie Devil Frog they had encountered yesterday.

Despite their confusion, the group didn’t stop their movements.

Kill them, gouge out the crystal cores from their brains.

Even though the crystal cores were small, they were still meat; they couldn’t be picky and throw them away.

Ai Guosheng handled the disposal of the corpses. As the Devil Frog bodies were cleared away, they naturally got closer to the zombie horde.

After a while, just as they were about to clear a path, the previously motionless zombie Devil Frogs suddenly lashed out their long tongues in unison, attacking Ai Yue and the others.

It was as if they had been waiting for Ai Yue and the others to let their guard down before launching a surprise attack.

Fortunately, Ai Yue and the others were battle-hardened and reacted quickly, blocking all the attacks together.

“What’s going on? Why did they suddenly start attacking?” Ye Rui asked, puzzled.

“Focus. It’s obvious something is controlling them, trying to catch us off guard. It miscalculated this time, so it will probably launch a full-scale counteroffensive now.”

Ai Yue spoke quickly with a heavy tone.

Ye Rui also understood. When things are abnormal, there’s bound to be a demon; there was definitely a big guy inside that zombie horde.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to control so many zombie Devil Frogs.

Seeing the situation on the field, everyone understood and braced themselves with absolute focus.

A zombie that has evolved to a higher level has definitely appeared here.

They weren’t sure what other abilities it might have, so it was better to be cautious.

They couldn’t let their guard down just because they were strong, only to fail miserably in the end. By then, there would be nowhere to cry about their regrets.

The group remained highly alert, cooperating with each other to kill the Devil Frogs in front of them.

Eventually, they finally fought their way through the Devil Frog swarm and into the zombie horde.

Fortunately, the zombies hadn’t changed; they were still fighting individually as usual.

However, the group didn’t dare be careless. To prevent a sneak attack from the zombie controlling the Devil Frogs, Gong Qiuqiu kept the Light Screen activated, enveloping everyone.

It was worth mentioning that after Gong Qiuqiu absorbed crystal cores, his Light Screen Superpower had also been upgraded.

He could now apply the Light Screen to individuals, protecting others without hindering their ability to use their own Superpowers.

As the zombies surged toward Ai Yue and the others one after another, they felt no fear; instead, they were faintly excited.

There were a massive number of crystal cores hidden here. If they dealt with all of them, wouldn’t all the crystal cores belong to them?

The thought alone was thrilling!

Ai Yue and Gong Qiuqiu repeated their old tactic, one defending and one attacking.

Ai Yue rubbed her hands together, and a half-gold, half-blue bolt of lightning crashed down.

When the dust settled, the area was empty, leaving only a foul burnt smell in the air; there wasn’t even a charred corpse on the ground.

She hadn’t expected the power of the lightning to be so great this time. It seemed her ability had risen to a new level.

“Sister, no—no need to use so much force! The crystal cores are all gone?” Ye Rui’s mouth twitched as she spoke with a stutter.

Ai Yue felt a bit embarrassed. “My mistake, my mistake. I’ll control my strength.”

“Sister, your Superpower breakthrough is huge. This Lightning Power is just like in the novels I used to read. It looks like Divine Punishment,” Ye Rui said, finally closing her surprised mouth after a long while.

“Stop with the praise. It’s not some special breakthrough; as long as anyone absorbs the energy from crystal cores, they will become stronger and stronger,” Ai Yue said modestly.

Seeing that her previous attempt didn’t work out, Ai Yue controlled her strength and tried again.

This time it went smoothly, and Ai Yue didn’t blast the zombies into smithereens.
