Upon hearing Jeremy's words, the human faces and arms that were brandishing claws on the fusion zombie's body all quieted down for a moment.

Then, the human faces on the zombie's body split into a wide, exaggerated smile.

The next moment, they opened their mouths and let out a sharp piercing roar!

A wave of sound that was visible to the naked eye rapidly spread through the air, rushing towards Jeremy and the others!

There was no way to dodge such a wide-range skill attack.

Jeremy only felt a pinprick in his brain, but it disappeared in an instant, likely due to his far superior mental strength compared to others of his level.

But the others weren't so lucky.

Everyone, including Bonnie and John, felt a wave of dizziness, struggling to even hold their weapons steady for a moment.

"Roar!!!"

As if responding to a command, hundreds of monsters roared in anger, charging at the crowd like a tide.

By the time the others regained their composure and saw what was happening, they were all in a state of panic.

The battle had barely begun, and Jeremy and his team were already at a disadvantage.

The crowd was in chaos, their eyes filled with fear.

John and the others gripped their weapons tightly, their expressions tense, while Emma and Bonnie's faces were pale.

Jeremy frowned, knowing this was no way to fight. The first thing he needed to do was to give them some confidence.

He took a deep breath, his gaze becoming incredibly sharp.

Naturally, the best way to boost their confidence was to show them a glimpse of hope for victory!

"Ritchie, remember to save people later!" Jeremy reminded. As a pale blue glow emanated from his body, he moved swiftly, pushing against the current and boldly charging towards the horde of beasts.

Jeremy's action stunned everyone.

This guy was truly brave! He dared to charge at so many monsters!

Seeing this, the smile on the human faces on the fusion zombie became even more terrifying.

It swung its thick arm, and seven or eight monsters rushed towards Jeremy.

Facing the monsters charging at him, Jeremy remained calm.

He sidestepped a pouncing black tiger, his dagger moving fluidly as it sliced across a goblin's neck.

"Splatter!"

The goblin clutched its neck, slowly falling to the ground.

[You have killed a Level 8 Goblin, earning 397 experience points!]

Blood splattered on Jeremy's face. But he didn't stop moving, his dagger pierced the neck of another black tiger that pounced at him. With a swift turn of his waist, he delivered a lightning-fast kick to the head of a werewolf attempting to sneak attack him.

"Crack!"

The sound of bones breaking was jarring as the werewolf's head spun a full one hundred eighty degrees from Jeremy's kick.

Killing it instantly.

[You have killed a Level 7 Black Tiger, earning 259 experience points!]

[You have killed a Level 8 Werewolf, earning 423 experience points!]

In the blink of an eye, three monsters lay dead by Jeremy's hand.

The monsters that were originally charging at Jeremy stopped in their tracks, fear evident in their eyes.

Jeremy pulled the wolf tooth dagger from the black tiger's neck, blood spraying everywhere.

He beckoned towards the remaining monsters with a gesture and said, "Come on, continue."

Seeing this, the human faces on the fusion zombie all stiffened.

The others, looking at Jeremy, had their eyes light up.

Regaining his senses, John raised his weapon and shouted, "Everyone, don't give up! These monsters are not as terrifying as we thought. With Jeremy here, we can definitely survive!"

"Let's go!" The long-suppressed crowd erupted, their morale quickly recovering, they gripped their weapons tighter, ready to face the monsters charging at them.

The first wave of monsters quickly arrived, and people like John and Bonnie showed their true strength.

A faint white light emerged on John's machete, each strike leaving a horrific wound on the monsters.

George, Everley, Eric, and others used steel shields to block the monsters' attacks.

A chill surrounded Bonnie, with ice arrows forming behind her and piercing through the bodies of the monsters.

Emma was protected in the middle by everyone, green light emerging around her, quickly stopping the bleeding of wounds around her.

Ritchie hid in the shadows, occasionally helping those in danger to dodge the monsters' attacks.

The first wave of monsters was largely withstood by John, Bonnie, and others.

Seeing this tough nut to crack, some monsters bypassed them and charged towards the people behind.

Facing so many monsters, the others were initially nervous. But after engaging with the monsters, they were surprised to replace that using Jeremy's method. It was quite easy to fend off the attacking monsters together.

Now everyone understood Jeremy's intention, and their looks towards him were filled with admiration.

As the situation improved, Jeremy did not relax at all in his heart.

He was well aware that this was only temporary. If they continued to drag on, they would still lose.

Jeremy glanced at the fusion zombie, knowing that the final victory would be decided by their battle.

And it had to be quick.

The longer it dragged on, the more dangerous it would be for Emma and the others.

With a thought, Jeremy took out energy crystals from his storage space.

He had initially planned to save these energy crystals to upgrade his skill levels after changing his class... But now he had no choice but to use them.

Jeremy currently had 75 first-tier energy crystals, 4 second-tier energy crystals, and 2 third-tier energy crystals.

After some thought, he decided to use the first-tier energy crystals to enhance his attributes, the second-tier crystals to upgrade the levels of his skills such as Shadow Step and Swift Slash, and he decided to save the third-tier energy crystals for later use.

"Hold on a moment!" After killing a black wolf, Jeremy told John and the others.

They didn't understand what he meant. But they nodded anyway.

Jeremy temporarily withdrew from the battle and found a safe place to begin absorbing the first-tier energy crystals.

As Jeremy's level increased, his speed of absorbing the first-tier energy crystals also noticeably accelerated.

[Ding! You have used 75 first-tier energy crystals, gaining 18 strength, 20 spirit, 16 stamina, and 21 agility!]

Jeremy felt a surge of tremendous energy within him, sweeping through every corner of his body in an instant.

At this moment, Jeremy's strength had broken through 70 points, and besides, he had 30 free attribute points.

Jeremy evenly distributed all the attribute points, bringing all four of his attributes up to 77 points, gaining another increase in strength.

With time pressing, and knowing John and the others couldn't hold on for much longer, Jeremy began to upgrade his skill levels.

[Do you confirm using second-tier energy crystals to upgrade the skill level of "Shadow Step"?]

When the prompt appeared, Jeremy confirmed.

[Ding! "Shadow Step" skill level has been upgraded to Level 2!]

Without stopping, Jeremy used all four second-tier energy crystals in one go.

The skill levels of Shadow Step and Swift Slash both reached Level 3, significantly enhancing the effects of these two skills.

Shadow Step's movement speed boost increased from 30% to 50%, with a longer duration, while Swift Slash's physical attack damage went from 130% to 150%, and its cooldown time was also reduced.

[Name]: Jeremy

[Level]: lv9

[Class]: None

[Ability]: The Eye of Omniscience (SSS)

[Attributes]: Strength 77, Spirit 77, Stamina 77, Agility 77

[Skills]: Shadow Step lv3, Swift Slash lv3

...

Jeremy opened his status panel and noticed he was about 8000 experience points away from reaching level 10.

Barring any surprises, he should be able to reach level 10 today.

Jeremy's gaze returned to the battlefield. Just a few minutes away, and John and the others were already struggling.

The fusion zombie lurking behind the monsters had made its move.

Its bloated abdomen swelled as the human faces on its body opened their mouths to spray black liquid towards John and the others.

Eric and George, among others, used steel shields to block.

The black liquid hit the shields, emitting white smoke and a sizzling sound.

In just a few breaths, the thick steel shields corroded, forming holes.

Shocked, Eric and the others quickly discarded the shields.

Without their defense, John and the others were in danger.

John urgently said, "Jeremy, are you ready? We can't hold on much longer!"

Jeremy didn't respond, a pale blue light emerged around him again.

Shadow Step!

With a step, his figure instantly vanished, appearing in front of the fusion zombie in the blink of an eye, moving more than twice as fast as before.

The fusion zombie, taken aback by Jeremy's sudden appearance, paused.

Before it could react, Jeremy's dagger swung down.

"Whoosh!"

A green wind blade flew out swiftly, striking the fusion zombie's arm.

"Wham!"

The thick arm crashed to the ground, blood raining down like a shower.

Everyone was stunned.
