Chapter 124 Zombies?
The most confused person was actually Lin Xuan, because she saw Su Jin close his eyes after loading the gun.
Then, in their field of vision, a secondary gun began to turn on its own without anyone touching it.
The dark muzzle of the cannon passed by her, circled around, and aimed at the group of crocodiles and sea monsters, during which she was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.
Although she didn't think Su Jin would fire at her, she still couldn't help but feel terrified when the gun was pointed at her.
However, she was then incredibly shocked, clearly not understanding how Su Jin had managed to do it.
This phenomenon, which defies the common sense of physics, made this former researcher feel dizzy.
Su Jin suddenly opened his eyes, a cold smile appearing on his lips.
Locking complete.
Target: The very center of the crocodile-sea monster pile.
"Xiaoxuan, cover your ears, let's watch the fireworks!"
As soon as Su Jin finished speaking, without him making any move, a burst of fire suddenly erupted from the breech of the secondary cannon.
"boom-!!!"
A loud bang shattered the tranquility of the sea, and the entire ship trembled slightly.
The black iron ball slammed straight down on the group of unlucky souls who were still fast asleep.
"collapse--!!!"
The next second, a deafening explosion rang out on the beach.
The high-purity black powder loaded inside the projectile was detonated upon impact, instantly creating a small mushroom cloud on the beach.
The two sea monsters at the epicenter of the explosion were torn to shreds in an instant without even uttering a sound.
This wasn't a physical attack; to the sea monsters, it was magic. But it was actually a purely scientific, dimensional-reducing attack.
The shockwave, carrying bits of flesh and severed limbs, swept outwards in all directions.
Although the sea monsters on the periphery were not blown to pieces on the spot, they were thrown several meters away like rag dolls.
They were riddled with shrapnel, and blood was gushing out like a fountain; they were clearly not going to survive.
"Art is an explosion."
Su Jin looked at the crater still emitting black smoke and whistled with satisfaction.
This power is far more terrifying than simply hitting someone with an iron ball.
The shrapnel damage from the explosion would be devastating for such clustered soft targets.
Although Lin Xuan covered her ears, her eyes were wide open.
Looking at the terrifying destructive power of the gunpowder she had personally concocted, a slightly yandere-like blush of excitement appeared on her face: "The amount of gunpowder could be increased even more, hmm, next time I'll try adding some magnesium powder, if I have any—"
As she spoke, she didn't know if she was too excited, but she couldn't help but hug Su Jin and inhale his scent deeply.
"hiss----"
Su Jin felt a headache coming on and couldn't help but gasp.
He originally thought Lin Xuan, this academic genius, was quite serious, but now she's acting like a lovesick woman.
Su Jin tapped her head and muttered, "Alright, stop acting like a mad scientist. Let go of her and check if those sea monsters are really dead. Check them out, we need to get ready to land on the island."
The two glanced at the sea creatures from afar and saw that they were all lying on the planks, and they couldn't help but smile.
It seems the shells were quite powerful; now they finally have the means to fight the sea monsters.
Su Jin brought the boat closer to the beach, and the two of them took their equipment and went ashore, still wearing their Stinky Fish disguise outfits.
The beach was a mess, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt meat and pungent gunpowder.
Su Jin walked over and finished off the few remaining wounded soldiers who were still barely clinging to life, while also collecting the spoils of war.
He packed the nearly cooked sea monster meat into the baskets he brought with him, filling three large baskets in total, which he considered a small harvest.
After clearing the battlefield, Su Jin walked straight towards the red flag.
Upon closer inspection, Su Jin's eyes twitched involuntarily.
This red flag is quite abstract; it really looks like an oversized red triangle of underwear, held high by a tree branch.
The three golden characters for "Benmingnian" (the year of one's birth sign) were printed on it, looking particularly comical in the sea breeze, with a touch of melancholy.
"He was a meticulous person; he even wore red underwear to ward off evil spirits before he died, but unfortunately, it didn't work." Su Jin shook his head and was about to leave when Lin Xuan suddenly exclaimed, "Brother Su, watch out! Look at your feet! The ground is moving!"
Su Jin instinctively jumped back, his gaze immediately locking onto the patch of sand where he had just been standing.
He was so focused on looking at the red underwear that he didn't pay attention to what was under his feet.
Now, upon closer inspection, he could clearly see that the soil in this plot was newer than the surrounding soil, loose, and slightly raised, indicating that it had been dug up and then filled back in.
Before Su Jin could examine it closely, the soft soil suddenly began to wriggle, as if there was a sand worm underneath.
Immediately afterwards, a withered, emaciated human hand burst forth from the ground, reaching straight up to the sky.
This scene is not unrelated to horror movies; it's practically a live broadcast of Plants vs. Zombies.
Lin Xuan turned pale with fright, her hand trembling as she held the knife, her voice shaking slightly: "This—this island owner, has he buried himself in the ground to raise a corpse? Has he turned into a zombie?"
"Zombie resurrection?" Su Jin sneered, his eyes showing not fear but excitement.
"That's great! I've never killed a zombie before, I wonder if they drop gold coins."
He casually tucked the small dagger he usually used back into his waistband, and then pulled out the heavy iron axe for logging from behind his waist.
So what if they're zombies?
His current physical condition has long surpassed human limits, making him practically a superman.
To deal with this inhuman creature, a knife stab is like tickling it; you have to use a heavy weapon to physically remove its head.
"Xiaoxuan, step back a bit, don't get splattered with blood."
Su Jin gripped the axe handle with both hands, his mind highly focused. If that head dared to show itself, he was ready to smash it open.
Zombies? Go talk to his Noxian guillotine!
The soil continued to churn, and the zombie finally slowly crawled out.
A head, resembling a bird's nest, emerged from the mud, its hair covered in seaweed and silt. Then came a face so thin it was skin and bones, with sunken eyes, a deathly pale complexion, and a hint of bluish-gray.
The zombie looked like it had fallen apart. As soon as it climbed out of the pit and sat up, it shook its head and neck, making cracking sounds, and making strange hissing noises.
He looks exactly like a zombie!
The "zombie" finally managed to straighten its neck, and when it looked up, it saw Su Jin and Lin Xuan, who were fully armed, right in front of it.
In that instant, he managed to force a distorted smile onto his stiff face—a wild joy at seeing a living person—and an unidentified liquid even dripped from the corner of his mouth.
"Hey, hehe, hehehe————"
Seeing that chilling smile, Su Jin didn't bother with any more words. "Screw your smile! Die!"
Su Jin roared and swung his large iron axe down at the messy head of hair.
Now, after multiple enhancements, this axe strike can cleave a hole in a steel plate, let alone a zombie.
Just as the axe blade was about to touch the man's skull, the "zombie's" previously unfocused pupils instantly focused, and he was so frightened that he almost popped his eyes out.
He didn't know where the strength came from, but his body, which had been half-dead just moments before, suddenly recoiled, clutching his head with both hands, and let out an extremely piercing human scream: "Big brother, don't kill me!! I'm alive!!!"
