The scene in front of him also made Luffy more certain of his guess.
If zombies are allowed to evolve further, ordinary firearms will no longer be able to threaten stronger zombies and other evolved creatures.
Because with the increase in speed and power, it is inevitable that the muscle tissue and bones of living things will be strengthened. Even if ordinary people hold firearms, their nerve reaction speed cannot keep up with the speed of evolved creatures. Even if they hit, the bullet will be strengthened.
It slows down the muscle tissue and is eventually blocked by the bones, making it unable to achieve the killing effect.
On the other side, Lin Qiaoni gritted her teeth, wrapped her legs tightly around the third-level crawler's neck, and pressed down on the military thorn with both hands.
Below, Liu Lei also used his bone blade to stab the parts of the third-level crawler that he could reach.
Qi Mingzhu was holding two ice arrows in his hands, but the Crawler's violent head shaking made it impossible for him to aim.
Li Xia frowned. She also had speed powers, but even Lin Qiaoni, who was one step above her, was helpless. She was helpless at the moment.
The Creeper gave up the struggle with Qiu Zhihu, so Qiu Zhihu had the upper hand at this moment and squeezed the Creeper to the side of a bus. While he continued to squeeze the Creeper, his eyes the size of ping pong balls were rolling.
Soon, he thought of a way.
This made Luffy not only sigh, but some people are born with fighting talents, and Qiu Zhihu is the one in front of him.
He shouted loudly, "Chief, give up a military thorn, and you and I will work together to play with it!"
Lin Qiaoni understood immediately, yes, why not concentrate all her strength on one of the spurs? She immediately let go of the spurs on the left and right and concentrated her strength on one of the spurs.
Qiu Zhihu in front simply gave up the door shield, pressed his body against the crawler, and put his arms around the crawler's neck.
Seeing this, the crawler opened its mouth and bit it. Qiu Zhihu did not retreat or dodge this time, but sent his right shoulder into the crawler's mouth.
"Crunch!"
This is the sound of the reptile's teeth rubbing against Qiu Zhihu's bones.
"hiss!"
Qiu Zhihu grinned widely, feeling severe pain, and he felt like his shoulder bone was about to break.
The blood of the evolved person is delicious to the crawler, which makes its brain intoxicated. At this moment, Qiu Zhihu, who is holding the crawler's neck, has touched Lin Qiaoni's hand and military thorn.
Lin Qiaoni was also very smart and immediately understood Qiu Zhihu's intention. She moved her hands down and gave Qiu Zhihu half of the handle of the general's thorn.
Qiu Zhihu held the military thorn and shouted, "One, two..."
Lin Qiaoni understood again, and when Qiu Zhihu counted to three, she gave a sweet shout and used all her strength with both hands.
Coupled with the huge force of Qiu Zhihu's hand, the military thorn made a "pop!" sound and completely penetrated into the back of the third-level crawler's head.
The crawler suddenly opened its eyes as big as copper bells, and Luffy saw a little bit of disbelief in its eyes.
Qiu Zhihu felt that the force squeezing his shoulders suddenly disappeared. Suddenly, the crawler's body shook, and its head slipped from Qiu Zhihu's chest and lay on the ground, motionless.
"We made it!"
Lin Qiaoni said to herself!
"died?"
Qiu Zhihu endured the severe pain and fiddled with the creeper's head a few times, as if he was letting others play with it.
"Chief, it's dead!"
At this moment, blood had stained half of his body red, but fortunately, it was not fatal and the main artery was not bitten.
He immediately took out a first-order energy crystal and threw it into his mouth. The energy in it could speed up the recovery of the wound.
"Ah~" Liu Lei struggled to get out from under the crawler, cursing, "Damn, it's so heavy, it's crushing me to death!"
Lin Qiaoni jumped off the crawler, came to Luffy's side and said, "Big boss, the third-level crawler was successfully killed by us, Qiu Zhihu was injured!"
Luffy nodded and said, "Well, that's right. This is a very special creeper. You guys were able to kill it. It's beyond my expectation. Not bad!"
As he spoke, Luffy raised the sniper rifle equipped with a silencer and fired four shots at the four second-level crawlers he controlled.
The second-order crawlers not far away were killed one after another.
"Take a rest, get the crystal, and let's continue!" Luffy glanced at the injured Qiu Zhihu and said, "Can you still do it?"
Qiu Zhihu had now returned to his original appearance. He pressed the wound and moved his shoulders and said, "No problem, it's a flesh wound!"
But everyone still saw the shocking tooth marks on his shoulders.
The crystallized energy gave priority to nourishing the injured cells and tissues. Soon, Qiu Zhihu's shoulder stopped bleeding. As for healing, it would take a longer time, but at least it was within his tolerance. He bared his teeth and blocked the vital points with his hands.
pointed out.
The situation was urgent before, so I didn't feel embarrassed. Now the surroundings were quiet. After feeling a few glances, Qiu Zhihu felt a little embarrassed.
"Silly man, do you want me to help you get some clothes on?"
Luffy couldn't help but sigh, the young woman in her 28s and 90s was so thick-skinned, Li Xia didn't shy away from it, and looked at Qiu Zhihu with a somewhat unscrupulous look, making the latter almost at a loss.
"No need!" Qiu Zhihu shook his head and said, "As long as you turn around!"
"Why do you order me to turn around? You are not my leader!" Li Xia shook her head with a smile. How could she let go of such an opportunity to make Qiu Zhihu look bad?
At this time, Lin Qiaoni couldn't stand it anymore. She looked into the distance and said, "Okay, we still have something to do! Go and take out the crystals. Give the third-level energy crystals to the big leader. Keep the others and return them to the organization.
!”
The leader gave the order, and Li Xia had no choice but to agree.
"yes!"
Seeing Li Xia and the others carrying their backs to get the crystals, Qiu Zhihu got up, searched around, found his lost backpack, took out a brand new set of clothes and put on them.
It turns out that this guy’s backpack contains clothes!
It seems that he has already experienced his abilities and is prepared in advance.
When they were taking the crystal, Luffy went over to take a look. Sure enough, the skull of this third-level crawler was extremely hard. They had to strip off the muscle tissue on its head, pry the skull open from the bone seams, and take it out.
crystallization.
Luffy put away the crystal that Li Xia handed him.
Lin Qiaoni picked up the fragments of the crawler's skull that had been pried off from the ground, and sighed, "No wonder I can't pierce its head, the skull is two centimeters thick!"
Luffy reached out and took it, and visually inspected it. It was indeed more than two centimeters, and the texture was dense. Even if it wasn't as high as a steel plate, he probably couldn't tell how much difference it was.
The next step was to rest, mainly to give Qiu Zhihu some time to recover. Everyone looked for a relatively hidden recess in the building next to the street.
Since the end of the world, everyone has been extremely insecure, even those with high strength.
No one would expose their body unless necessary.
God knows if there are any weird things in this city.
"You are very good!"
During the break, Luffy gave Qiu Zhihu a rare compliment.
To be honest, even to this day, Luffy still has not adapted to the identity of the big boss.
It feels awkward when you praise Qiu Zhihu!
Because compared to their age, Luffy is close to ten years old.
After saying this, Luffy subconsciously touched his nose. This was a cover-up action to cover up his embarrassment and discomfort.
When can I go back to my former self?
Maybe never!
Qiu Zhihu, on the other hand, chuckled and said, "It's mainly because I think the big leader doesn't need weak people under his command!"
The tone was so natural that Luffy couldn't help but feel ashamed!
He nodded and said, "The next person in the organization to advance to the third level must be you!"
Just now, although Lin Qiaoni could not kill the third-level crawler on her own, everyone could see that the third-level crawler could not hurt Lin Qiaoni because she was faster than the third-level crawler.
As for Qiu Zhihu himself, even after his transformation, he was suppressed by the third-level crawler. If the attacks of several people hadn't made the crawler disorganized, he probably wouldn't have been injured as easily.
Now that Chengruo has given him priority to advance to the third level, how could he not be excited?
Then he stood up and bent down and said, "I swear to be loyal to the great leader to the death!"
"You have worked hard, and I have to let you gain something!" Luffy couldn't help but think of what his father Lu Dali said, "By the way, how long do you think it will take to return to freedom of movement?"
We can't let the ninjas rush on their way, there might be a fight!
Qiu Zhihu moved his shoulders slightly and said, "Two hours!"
"Okay, we'll wait for you to recover!"
At this moment, Luffy suddenly turned his head.
Although Lin Qiaoni didn't speak, her thoughts were always on Luffy. After discovering Luffy's abnormality, she asked, "Big boss, what's wrong?"
Everyone looked towards Luffy, and before Luffy could say anything, they saw a crawler that was even larger than the third-level crawler appeared in their field of vision.
"Oops, miscalculation!" Qiu Zhihu spat and slowly stood up, "I should have moved farther away just now, it's all my fault for being injured!"
Several people were also sluggish. Although this crawler looked like it was also at the third level, it looked a little more stubborn than the one just now.
The third-level crawler just now made them very embarrassed, and some people were injured. Another one came, making everyone feel the pressure.
"Brother~"
Lin Qiaoni called out softly.
Luffy patted her shoulder lightly and said, "Leave it to me this time!"
With Luffy's words, the uneasily beating hearts of the four of them became inexplicably quiet.
