Ye Zhongming activated his sprinting skill in an instant.
The sudden flash of movement startled the beast tamer, and it quickly realized the extreme danger it was in. As it tugged on the four iron chains, it felt one of them become unexpectedly light. When it looked at the chain, it saw that it was only holding half of a zombie dog.
Ye Zhongming had utilized the burst effect of his sprint to instantly kill a zombie dog.
It wasn't that he didn't want to eliminate the beast tamer in one go; it was just that sprinting was a skill that only doubled his speed for three seconds, without the ability to teleport. He charged forward, unleashing the aura of full power, but could only ensure the death of one zombie dog.
However, this was enough to shock the beast tamer and the choker behind it.
In just one second, the beast tamer, whose overall strength was only second to the leader choker, lost one of its underlings?
It was important to note that the beast tamer’s strength was mainly represented by these four zombie dogs. Losing one meant a quarter of its power was gone, which was enough to shake the choker.
Ye Zhongming wouldn’t let this opportunity slip by. After swinging his blade, he dashed forward and unleashed the sealing flame blade, directing its fierce momentum straight at the beast tamer's body.
A giant shadow of a dog mixed with blood appeared before the beast tamer and collided with the flame blade. After a crisp crack, the dog shadow shattered, but the flame blade was also blocked. Aside from causing a minor burn to the tail of another zombie dog, Ye Zhongming’s strongest attack was surprisingly thwarted.
With a narrowed gaze, Ye Zhongming realized he had indeed encountered an opponent today. This beast tamer clearly had more than one innate skill, and the powerful defensive skill it just used, one he hadn't even known about, was definitely its innate ability.
Ye Zhongming quickly changed his tactics. Instead of continuing forward, he crashed sideways into a zombie, using his Bloodstained Battle Boots to stomp on its head, crushing it and feeling a weak surge of power enter his body.
Then, Ye Zhongming discreetly fired a shot.
This was undeniably treacherous; it was one of the rich combat experiences Ye Zhongming had accumulated in his previous life. In battle, as long as he could kill the enemy, the method didn't matter.
Sprinting, swinging his sword, charging forward, unleashing the flame blade, then sidestepping to shoot—all these movements were incredibly swift, leaving the beast tamer momentarily bewildered.
One of its arms moved, directing a zombie dog to look up at Ye Zhongming, but suddenly, a bullet flew toward it.
The beast tamer paid extreme attention to the protection of its critical weak spot—the head—but it had only one arm free. Ye Zhongming’s maneuver was indeed sinister; the head, which was quite similar to a human's, was instantly blown apart.
Ye Zhongming felt a surge of joy in his heart. He had prepared for a prolonged battle; after all, he was only a two-star evolver facing a rare grade 3 mutated zombie. Even if he was strong, he had no confidence in resolving the fight quickly.
But who would have thought he could solve the beast tamer so easily?
Ye Zhongming’s attention then shifted to the grade 4 choker that was sitting atop the corpse ape and was now approaching him.
No!
After taking a few steps forward, Ye Zhongming sensed something was wrong. He instinctively retreated, but still felt a pain in his leg, causing him to stumble.
Before he could react, a wave of scorching heat rushed at him, arriving in an instant.
The favorable situation had flipped in an instant, bringing a sense of lethal threat.
Yet Ye Zhongming remained calm. Instead of forcing himself to stand firm, he threw himself to the ground and, in the moment of falling, plunged the edge of the moon into the ground to help propel himself sideways.
