Chapter 122 Defense Crystals
The sound of shattering glass instantly resounded! David’s kick was a culmination of the full strength of a Level 6 esper, unexpectedly kicking the Titan zombie out of the hall. Then, the Titan zombie sneered, and his entire body started falling downward. At that moment, the Titan zombie suddenly extended its large hand and fiercely grabbed David’s arm.
“Damn it!” Caught by the Titan zombie, David had no strength to struggle due to the previous powerful strike. Arnold, Sally, and the others were shocked when they saw this!
They immediately wanted to rush over to grab David. However, the falling speed of the Titan zombie was too fast. Before they could reach David, he and the Titan zombie crashed towards the ground.
The Titan zombie tightly grasped David, staring at him with a strange expression. It seemed determined to take him down as a shield, even if it meant dying together. At the same time, wisps of white smoke started emanating from the high-explosive grenades on its body, which would completely explode in a few seconds.
“You damn beast, you think you can use me as a shield? Dream on!” David stared fiercely at the Titan zombie and immediately manifested the Blade of Space in his hand. At the same time, he opened a spatial portal. As the Blade of Space slashed toward the Titan zombie’s arm, half of David’s body had already entered the spatial portal.
The Blade of Space struck the Titan zombie’s body, producing a series of sparks. Its grip on David’s hand also slightly loosened.
Seeing this, David quickly mustered the last bit of strength to break free from its grasp and then flashed! He entered the spatial portal. At the moment the portal closed, the high-explosive grenades suddenly began to explode!
“Boom!” The sound of ten high-explosive grenades detonating caused the entire building to tremble slightly! The people in the hall quickly stabilized themselves and rushed to the balcony, looking down below. They saw a white smoke mixed with red spreading. The white smoke was from the nitrous fumes generated by the explosion of the high-explosive grenades, and the red was the blood mist from the Titan zombie’s body being blown apart. However, the expressions on everyone’s faces were filled with sorrow because when they looked at that blood mist, they seemed to think of something they couldn’t accept. 𝚍n𝚘v𝚕.𝚘𝚛𝚐
“David! David!” Sally knelt on the ground, frantically shouting as she looked at the ground. After calling several times with no response, tears slowly streamed down her delicate face.
“David, don’t scare me, okay? Answer me quickly, David!” Sally seemed to anticipate something, crying and calling out David’s name.
Arnold and Duke also wore expressions of profound grief on their faces. They didn’t want to accept this reality, but falling from such a height, coupled with ten high-explosive grenades exploding nearby, even an iron man would have no chance of survival. Instantly, they started blaming themselves, regretting that they didn’t run faster earlier, otherwise the situation wouldn’t have turned out like this. As they looked at the lingering blood mist below, everyone’s mood sank to the extreme.
And at that moment, a faint cough suddenly came from below. The hearts of the few individuals shook! “Stop mourning, I’m not dead! Damn it! This bastard is really cunning!” Upon hearing this familiar voice, the group was momentarily stunned before their faces immediately lit up with excitement. They could tell that this voice belonged to David.
Being able to speak and curse, does this look like a dead person? Sally quickly got up from the ground and ran downstairs, with the others following closely behind. It turned out that at the moment the high-explosive grenades exploded, David had completely entered the spatial portal. Originally, he was supposed to teleport behind the others.
But who knew that the power of the high-explosive grenades was too great, directly shaking the space and causing his teleportation location to change, sending him to the ground. Fortunately, he completely avoided the damage from the explosion of the high-explosive grenades.
Soon, Sally followed the sound and rushed to David’s side. At this moment, he was leaning against a scrapped car, coughing continuously.
“David, are you okay?” Sally squatted down and asked worriedly.
After a moment, David waved his hand and slowly stood up.”I’m fine, I was just choked by the smoke from the high-explosive grenades.”
After confirming that David didn’t have any life-threatening injuries, Sally let out a deep sigh of relief:”It was too dangerous just now, don’t do something like this again.” Before David finished coughing, Sally said angrily. “I won’t allow you to joke with your life.”
“Anyone in our team can be absent, but not you. Besides, there are still many things… that I haven’t told you.” As she spoke, Sally’s expression suddenly changed. From the anger just now, she slowly blushed and became shy.
This made David laugh helplessly and said, “I remember, next time I will definitely call you, and we can have a good chat.” David pointed to the sky above.
“Eww! Don’t say such things!” Sally quickly covered her mouth and said.
At this time, Arnold and the other two arrived. “David, are you okay? Did you get hurt anywhere?”
After confirming that David was fine, everyone let out a sigh of relief. David was too important to them, even though they had become empowered individuals who could stand on their own and kill zombies. But in their hearts, David was the strongest and wisest person. Moreover, the reason they were able to awaken their powers and become empowered individuals was because of David.
Walking to the location where the Titan zombie exploded earlier, David saw pieces of black and red flesh and limbs. The once towering Titan zombie was reduced to a pile of flesh by the high-explosive grenades. Seeing the blood-red ground, the voice of the system rang in David’s ears.
Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Defense Crystal!
Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering a hundred times critical strike and obtaining a hundred Defense Crystals.
“Hmm? Defense Crystals?” Listening to the system’s words, David was somewhat puzzled. It was the first time he had heard of this type of crystal. So, he silently asked the system in his mind about the function of the Defense Crystals. After learning that they could strengthen the defense of any object or person, David nodded inwardly and didn’t delve into it further. He then found his alloy short knife and held it in his hand.
At this moment, Little black and Cola also came down and, upon seeing David, they approached his feet. It seemed that they also thought David had died earlier, and now they were clearly excited.
Even Cola, who was usually aloof, kept circling around David’s legs, showing no intention of leaving.
