Apocalypse: No rebirth! Time to upgrade the sewers!

That must be the monster's lair!

Got you.

Song Qing did not hesitate at all.

A thought crossed my mind.

A gasoline barrel, originally designed for cooking oil, appeared out of thin air in his hand.

He suddenly exerted all his strength and threw the gasoline can towards the small flower bed!

The gasoline can traced a parabola in the air.

However, the vines reacted faster than expected.

Just as the gasoline drum was above the thorny vines, dozens of sharp thorns burst out from the flower bed and pierced through the drum in mid-air!

puff!

The gasoline soaked the vines completely, just like rain.

The thorn vine itself clearly hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

He must have sensed that this thing posed a threat to him.

Countless vines began to twist violently.

Song Qing stood at a distance, watching this scene with no extra expression on her face.

He pulled a lighter out of his pocket.

Click.

The lighter was lit.

"Your abilities seem quite impressive."

"So, leave it to me."

He flicked his finger the instant he finished speaking.

The lighter, glowing, flew towards the vine, which was soaked in gasoline.

boom!

The flames exploded and ignited the moment they came into contact with the gasoline!

A raging fire instantly shot into the sky, engulfing the entire small flower bed in flames.

The black thorny vines struggled wildly in the flames.

Song Qing watched quietly.

He discovered that the monster's vitality was even more tenacious than he had imagined.

Under the raging fire, the vines were constantly being carbonized.

But even more vines sprouted from the ground.

At this rate, this amount of gasoline might not be enough to completely burn it to death.

Song Qing felt it was necessary to add fuel to the fire.

His mind raced once more.

Two enormous bags of flour, each weighing twenty pounds, appeared in his left and right hands.

With his current strength of 19 and physique of 22, carrying 20 pounds with one hand is practically the same as carrying a bag of cotton.

Why use flour?

Before the apocalypse, Song Qing had accidentally come across a science video.

In a closed or semi-closed space with an open flame, there must be no large amount of combustible dust.

Otherwise, it will trigger an extremely terrifying phenomenon.

Dust explosion!

Song Qing still clearly remembers that the explosion caused by flour in the video was incredibly powerful.

He smiled slightly.

With a burst of strength from his arms, he forcefully threw the two bags of flour, weighing a total of forty pounds, directly into the air above the burning vines!

Song Qing raised his right arm.

Puff puff!

More than a dozen purplish-black spikes instantly grew from his palm.

Then the spikes were shot out!

The spikes struck the two flour bags in mid-air with pinpoint accuracy.

The bag was instantly torn apart.

Countless white powder particles, like a heavy snowfall, rained down on the sea of ​​fire below.

suddenly!

boom!

A deafening explosion, several times more violent than the gasoline explosion, rang out!

Followed by.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of even more terrifying explosions rang out!

A huge fireball rose up.

Shockwaves and scorching heat waves spread in all directions.

Song Qing was even pushed back several steps by the shockwave before she could regain her balance.

He raised his arm to shield his face, squinting at the center of the explosion.

The area had been completely engulfed in flames, with thick black smoke rising from it.

After a while, the fire gradually subsided.

The thorny vine itself was still struggling slightly.

Not completely dead

To be honest, this mutated thorn vine has a decent health bar.

Song Qing did not give it any more chances.

He walked step by step, braving the heatwave.

With a flick of his claws, he easily severed the roots of the mutated thorny vine.

Song Qing could sense that its life was fading away.

at last.

The long-awaited system notification sound rang in his mind.

[Defeat 1 Tier 2 Mutant Thorn Vine, gain 50 points]

Current points: 65

Song Qing couldn't wait to squat down.

He placed his hand over the main root of the mutated thorn vine.

Binge eating!

He meditated in his heart.

A surge of energy, completely different from before, flowed into his body through his arm.

If the energy that devours zombies and mutated rats is murky, then this energy is gentle.

An indescribable feeling of comfort spread throughout his body.

Under his hands, the massive thorny vine root was turning to ashes at a visible speed.

A moment later, the system notification sounded precisely on time.

[Bingeing successful!]

[Gained Ability: Thorny Vine]

[Ability Description: Thorns can grow on any part of the body. These thorns can feed on the flesh and blood of their target to restore the host's physical and mental strength, but they cannot heal injuries.]

【Strength +3】

Become!

Song Qing suddenly stood up.

A new power filled his entire body.

He raised his right hand, a thought forming in his mind.

puff!

Several black thorny vines suddenly grew from his forearm, their surfaces covered with sharp barbs.

He controlled the thorny vines, which, like flexible tentacles, wrapped around a huge chunk of concrete that had been blown away by the explosion.

That cement block weighed at least close to 100 pounds.

Song Qing gently raised her arm.

The huge cement block was easily lifted into the air by the thorny vines.

He could now clearly feel that his power had increased again.

But this is not enough.

Song Qing's thoughts raced.

The greatest advantage of this ability is not the increase in strength.

He had the idea again.

The thorns on his arm quickly retracted into his body, and his skin was completely healed.

Immediately afterwards, several thorny vines on his right leg extended down his trouser leg.

Then it plunged into the ground beneath its feet.

next second.

An open space a dozen meters ahead.

boom!

The snow and frozen ground exploded!

Several black thorny vines broke through the ground and pierced the sky.

It worked!

Song Qing was overjoyed at this moment.

That's incredible.

The sneak attack and the control techniques are simply divine!

With this ability, his fighting style will become more diverse, and his margin for error will be greatly improved.

Although it can't compare to the explosive power of spikes

However, the thorny vine's function lies in control and consumption.

Moreover, it is extremely tough.

Song Qing controlled a thorny vine that had sprouted from the ground and stretched it out in front of him.

He reached out and grabbed it with both hands, pulling with all his might.

"Snap"

The thorny vine snapped in response.

But that doesn't mean it's fragile.

Quite the opposite.

Even someone with a strength level of 22 would need to use all their strength to tear it apart; its resilience is truly terrifying.

If it were an ordinary white zombie or a common mutated creature, once it got entangled, it would have no chance of breaking free.

Not to mention, it has one more bizarre characteristic.

They consume flesh and blood to restore their physical and mental strength.

What does this mean?

This means that as long as the battle continues and there are enough enemies to power his batteries, his endurance is limitless!

In the apocalypse, this is practically a bug.

Song Qing couldn't help but laugh.
