“Dustveil.
“I’m a Hammer.”
Caroline whispered, activating two abilities at once.
This was a boost she’d gained the last time she soaked in the healing spring.
Caroline possessed several abilities, but trying to use two at once.was still exhausting.

Right now, she had only one thought in her mind–she needed to kill that damned Sea Folk as quickly as possible.
A dozen plans had flashed through her mind just now, but this one was the most effective.
Mutated Earth Ability: Dustveil.
Description: Creates a five–square–foot cloud of sand out of thin air. Inside the cloud, I can move or hide freely. Nobody, not even the gods, can see me.
Metal Ability: I’m a Hammer
Description: When my head turns into a hammer, it can smash through anything in the worl Bonus feature: never gets a concussion again.
She could feel a huge chunk of her energy draining away as she used both abilities at the sam time. Even her footsteps slowed a little.
But she didn’t care.
A cloud of dust and sand filled the air, covering Tyler, the Sea Folk, and some of the corpses.
Tyler realized Caroline had activated her ability and started helping her clear out the corpse nearby.
The Sea Folk seemed to sense danger too. Her chanting grew louder, and the corpses, which had only been shambling straight ahead before, suddenly grew frenzied and started attackin Tyler.
Tyler’s face stayed cold as he swung his long knife rapidly. Anything that got close was slice
apart.

Chapter 694 Sorry, Zoe
But those corpses showed no fear. They weren’t tired or hesitant.
Some cockroaches, even cut in half, kept crawling forward in two separate parts.

A human corpse cut in two would keep moving–the legs would keep walking, while the upper body would crawl along the ground using its arms.
A rat’s tail, sliced off, would keep wriggling on the ground.
All of these eerie sights played out right before her eyes.
Caroline now gripped a long knife in each hand, cutting down everything in her way.
She practically carved a path through the blood and chaos.
No matter what came at her–if it blocked her, she cut it down.
Corpses poured in from all sides, filling the small five–foot–square space.
That area, which had become her storage space after she used her ability, had let her move around freely before.
Now, it was packed so full of corpses that there was no space to maneuver.
It was like the Sea Folk was using a wave of corpses to try to bury Caroline and Tyler alive.
At the same time, the Sea Folk kept moving backward.
On Caroline’s last burst of movement, her hands almost touched the Sea Folk.
But right then, she saw that figure again.
That slim figure belonged to Zoe.
She froze for half a second, but then she swung her knife without hesitation–Sorry, Zoe. I hav to do this. You’re dead now. You’re just a corpse. You’re being controlled.
Caroline apologized to Zoe in her heart as she brought the blade down on Zoe’s shoulder.
The girl’s slender body was split down one side, and Caroline kicked her aside.
But that split second of hesitation was enough for the Sea Folk to catch an opening.
The Sea Folk’s eyes flashed, and her song suddenly grew softer.

Chapter 694 Sorry, Zoe
:
Caroline watched as Zoe’s corpse stood up again.
This time, a weird smile appeared on her stiff face.
It was an extremely strange feeling.

Caroline had seen corpses before, but this was her first time seeing someone she knew turned into a corpse–and she was smiling at her.
Then, Zoe’s corpse charged straight at Caroline.
The other corpses cleared a path for her.
Zoe’s corpse lunged at Caroline.
Caroline slashed at her again and again with her knives, but even after hacking her to pieces, as long as a joint remained movable, Zoe kept coming.
The other corpses helped her, gathering the severed parts and piecing her back together.
To Caroline, it all looked like some twisted curse.
She stared at the Sea Folk in front of her.
The woman looked at Caroline and gave her a seductive smile.
“You know her.”
The Sea Folk spoke softly, her voice strange and awkward, as if she’d just learned human language.
Caroline’s eyes widened in shock.
She stared at the Sea Folk and saw a kind of pure evil in her face.
Caroline ignored her. At the same time, she pulled out a bottle of the energy drink Nelson had developed and downed it in one go.
When she finished, her gaze went darker–she was furious at that woman.
Caroline felt her energy instantly surge back to full.
