Chapter 804: Excavation

Zhao Xiu’s expression changed slightly as well.
“Why can’t they be killed?!”
Zhao Xiu personally witnessed a mutant being sent flying by a barrage of bullets, with dozens of holes in its body! If it were any other known mutant of the same species, it would already be dead.
However, after it landed on the ground, it actually rolled on the ground, and the wounds on its body quickly healed. Then, it rapidly attacked the entrance of the mining area.
The recovery ability of the mutated beast was shocking!
Cheng Han’s expression was also solemn. He quickly took out an explosive bomb and threw it at the mutated beasts on the field.
“Boom!”
The bomb exploded with a loud ‘Bang’!
It was still ineffective!!
The explosion blew up a small group of Lickers in the surroundings. However, they rolled on the ground again and struggled to pounce toward the entrance of the mining area.
“What’s going on?”
Zhao Xiu was really panicking now.
He had never seen a mutated beast with such tenacious vitality!
Cheng Han did not answer. He did not know either. He signaled the team to use their powerful firepower to suppress the attacks of the mutated beasts.
Zhao Xiu gritted his teeth and took out an energy beam weapon from his backpack
In the Wasteland World, energy beam weapons were extremely rare weapons. They were top-tier weapons and ammunition replenishment was also very expensive.
“Whoosh!!!!”
A beam of light pierced through the body of the incoming mutated beast, leaving a bloody hole in its body. The mutated beast was also sent flying.
Zhao Xiu stared at the mutated beast.
He could not imagine it.
What kind of mutation was it?
Even a top-tier beam weapon could not kill it?!
The beam bullet pierced through the body of the mutated beast, but it could not cause any fatal damage to it!
After landing on the ground, the Licker’s wound that was caused by the energy beam weapon quickly healed.
More and more Lickers emerged from the dense forest. They withstood the powerful firepower of the players from Weixing Technology Company and quickly approached the entrance of the mining area.
A layer of cold sweat appeared on Zhao Xiu’s forehead. He could not help but shout, “Quickly think of a way!”
This group of mutated beasts was too terrifying. Just by looking at their sharp claws, one could tell that they were close-combat-type creatures. Once they were at close range…
If they couldn’t defeat them at a distance, it was even more impossible for them to defeat them at close range!
Escape?!
At this moment, Zhao Xiu suddenly realized that they were extremely foolish to guard the mining area!
The back of the mining area was a dead end.
There was no way to escape from this place!
They were blocked at the intersection!
“Whoosh!!!!”
The first Licker broke through the dense firepower net and pounced in front of the player.
Zhao Xiu was terrified.
It was exactly as Zhao Xiu had expected.
The sharp claws of the Licker easily tore open the protective suit of his companion.
Blood splattered out from the protective suit.
The surrounding teammates were being massacred continuously!
Suddenly, Zhao Xiu realized something. It was Su Biao!
“Su Biao!!”
At this moment, Su Biao was shooting hard to resist the approaching group of Lickers. Right now, he was extremely regretful. He regretted that he came here to look for trouble. Couldn’t he have escaped earlier?
Zhao Xiu saw the evasive look in Su Biao’s eyes and was even more certain of his guess. “Did you do it!”
“What?”
“Did you lure us here? Did you take the money from Ark Company? Do you think we’ll let you off?”
“Are you f*cking crazy!”
Only then did Su Biao realize that he had been suspected. He immediately defended himself. “I’ve already told you that there’s something wrong with this group of mutated beasts! You guys just don’t believe me!”
“Bullsh*t! A high-energy beam gun can even kill a Tier 5 mutated beast. How can it be useless against them?!”
In his rage, Zhao Xiu pointed the muzzle of his gun at Su Biao and shouted crazily, “You think that these life forms are just normal low-level mutated beasts? Tell me, how did you escape from the encirclement of so many mutated beasts? Huh?!”
Facing Zhao Xiu’s questioning, Su Biao was at a loss for words.
“Chi!”
In the next second, a mutant covered in pus flashed in front of his eyes and threw Zhao Xiu to the ground.
The mutated beasts pounced on him one after another, tearing Zhao Xiu into pieces and biting him.
Su Biao realized that everything that had happened more than an hour ago had happened in front of his eyes once again.
The mutated beasts had barged into the entrance of the mining area, and a large number of his companions had been slaughtered in front of his eyes.
And those mutated beasts just wouldn’t lay their hands on him!
In less than a minute, almost everyone except Su Biao was dead.
About forty mutated beasts surrounded Su Biao in the middle.
The group of Lickers gave way to a small path.
Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei slowly walked out from behind, sizing up Su Biao.
Su Biao’s eyes were filled with fear.
He felt his throat was extremely dry.
“You…”
“You’ve worked hard.” Fang Heng shrugged and looked at Su Biao. “Aren’t you going to leave?”
Su Biao gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart. He turned around and fled.
Mo Jiawei, who was by Fang Heng’s side, asked, “Are you going to let him escape again?”
“Don’t go overboard. We’re all workers. There’s no need to be so ruthless. After all, I’m not a bad person.”
Fang Heng said as he walked into the mining area.
Mo Jiawei shook his head and sighed. “Why do I feel that he’ll be more unlucky if we let him go back?”
“Whatever. Letting him go back will help us promote our Ark Technology more or less so that we won’t be disturbed when we’re mining.”
Fang Heng sized up the mining area cave and said, “This mining area seems pretty good. We should be able to earn a lot of contribution points in one night.”
While talking, the two of them entered the depths of the mining area.
Fang Heng changed his plan and occupied the magpie’s nest.
He called the Lickers to the mining area and stayed in the nearby area to scout. Then, he controlled the normal zombies to enter the mining area and start collecting the iron ores.
Earlier on, Fang Heng went shopping in the Raptor Company, and the zombie clones changed into the new protective suits.
The second-hand protective suit was the most inferior one, which was obtained by sewing and mending the abandoned protective suit.
It was cheap, and the protective suit could only last for about 60 minutes.
The protective suit could cover the whole body anyway. As long as they were a little further away, it would be difficult for others to find out that they were zombies.
It could more or less maintain a little mystery.
Soon, the zombies in the tattered protective suit staggered into the mining area under Fang Heng’s control. They raised the high-tier multi-functional pickaxes provided by the Raptor Company and started digging.
[Hint: You explored the mining area with your exploration skill. Currently, 43%-77% of the minerals are left.]
[Hint: Your zombie clone has obtained Tier 1 bloodstone*1… ]
[Hint: Your zombie clone has obtained Tier 2 chrome crystal ore*5…]
[Hint: Your…]
A line of game hints began to appear on the screen.
Fang Heng nodded in satisfaction.
Wasteland Apocalypse. The ordinary player had to be on guard against the attacks of the mutated beasts while mining. They had to be prepared for the durability of the protective suit and maintain their stamina at all times.
However, the zombie clones didn’t have such concerns.
Radiation couldn’t kill them anyway, and their stamina was limitless. There were Lickers guarding the periphery area as well.
When they were disturbed by ignorant mutants, they were disposed of on the spot, becoming evolution crystals required for Fang Heng to level up.
