Chapter 306
"Everyone, retreat quickly! Or run to higher ground!"
Mu Yang shouted.
There were quite a few people on this street, easily over a hundred.
Some were already completely unable to escape.
The rest attacked while rapidly retreating.
Although they had erected multiple barriers to block the zombie cockroaches,
the zombie cockroaches kept climbing up the buildings on both sides of the street, scaling the barriers, and relentlessly advancing toward Zheng Xin'er and the others.
They attacked with all their might, but the sheer number of zombie cockroaches, their scattered distribution, and their rapid crawling speed made it nearly impossible to stop them.
Even if they focused their attacks on one area, they could only kill a portion, while the rest would scatter and flee quickly.
Aside from Liu Xiaohui, who was piloting the helicopter, Yun Xiaoxiao, along with Han Bing, Mu Yang, and Zheng Yuner, quickly descended from the helicopter onto the barriers the others had created.
Mu Yang and Zheng Yuner swiftly attacked the zombie cockroaches that were about to climb over the walls.
Meanwhile, Yun Xiaoxiao and Han Bing darted around, rescuing those who couldn't run fast enough and were about to be caught by the zombie cockroaches, bringing them to safety.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"Leave the rest to you."
After saving several people in danger, Yun Xiaoxiao nodded at Han Bing and left.
Han Bing continued to assist those who couldn't escape in time.
Yun Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, teleported back to the helicopter.
Following her instructions, Liu Xiaohui swiftly flew the helicopter above the entrance to the underground pipeline.
Yun Xiaoxiao, her face cold, launched a fierce attack on the manhole cover.
In no time, the cover shattered into pieces and fell into the sewer below.
Yun Xiaoxiao quickly pulled out a barrel of oil, unscrewed the lid, and poured it down into the pipeline.
"Go!"
As the helicopter flew away, a streak of fire shot out, heading straight for the pipeline entrance.
"Boom!"
The flames erupted into the sky, accompanied by the sizzling sound of burning.
The helicopter continued to pour oil along the street, especially on the walls on both sides.
By now, both the walls and the ground were teeming with zombie cockroaches.
The fire spread from the sewer entrance, following the trail of oil, igniting flames everywhere.
The scorching blaze burned intensely, crackling and popping.
The firelight illuminated the sky, dyeing the entire area red.
With Yun Xiaoxiao and the others joining the fight, Zheng Xin'er and her group quickly regained their composure.
This was everyone's first encounter with zombie cockroaches, and on such a massive scale at that.
Both physically and mentally, they were somewhat disoriented and panicked.
But with strong backup, Zheng Xin'er and the others quickly recovered.
They retreated in an orderly manner, setting up new barriers to block the zombie cockroaches.
This time, they didn't just focus on the street.
With the help of Wind System Ability Users, they flew into the air,
building the barriers even higher.
They also sealed off the tops and outer sides of the buildings on both sides of the street.
The goal was to prevent the zombie cockroaches from escaping and to wipe them out completely!
Under Zheng Xin'er's command, they coordinated seamlessly with Yun Xiaoxiao, focusing on both defense and offense.
Han Bing and some Wind System Ability Users brought the others to the outermost barriers, tasked with dealing with any cockroaches that the fire hadn't reached.
Through their combined efforts, the zombie cockroaches on the entire street were finally eradicated.
To ensure none had slipped into the buildings on either side, Yun Xiaoxiao set both buildings ablaze.
A clean sweep.
The zombies in the central district were indeed formidable. All five factions encountered trouble.
The Tang Brothers faced a high-level mutated zombie that could burrow underground.
This zombie was not only adept at escaping underground but also caused massive ground collapses whenever it surfaced.
Anyone standing on that ground who couldn't fly was in grave danger,
likely to be dragged into a deep pit or buried under debris.
By the time Ling Jing arrived, over a dozen people had already perished.
However, in the end, Ling Jing and Tang Jun managed to dig out the mutated zombie and smash its skull.
Peng Shaowei's group encountered a ferocious zombie dog and a terrifying zombie cat.
The zombie dog was enormous, though not as tall as the fusion monster Jiang Huai's group had faced, it still stood at least two meters tall.
And it was far more agile than the fusion monster.
Its teeth had evolved into sharp fangs, with a bite force and lethality that were off the charts.
Its claws were also far more deadly than those of an ordinary dog, razor-sharp.
At least fifteen people had been killed or injured by it!
But it wasn't the scariest of the two. The zombie cat perched on its back was even more horrifying.
The zombie cat was tiny, about the size of a large rat.
It moved with incredible agility, its speed like lightning.
It was nearly impossible to track its movements with the naked eye.
If you weren't careful, it would dart to your feet and bite your ankle,
or climb onto your back and sink its teeth into your neck when you least expected it.
What made it worse was that it coordinated perfectly with the zombie dog.
Dealing with them was a nightmare.
Fortunately, Peng Shaowei and his team were no pushovers.
With their previous experience fighting a level-six initial-stage zombie alongside Yun Xiaoxiao, they managed to overcome this daunting challenge through teamwork.
Lu Chen, on the other hand, faced a level-six high-stage mutated zombie.
Outwardly, it looked like a normal zombie,
but it was incredibly difficult to deal with.
Even Lu Chen could only fight it to a standstill.
The problem was, unless Lu Chen struck its head, any damage he dealt was meaningless.
But if the zombie injured him even once, it was game over.
So while the battle seemed evenly matched, it was fraught with peril.
Only Lu Chen could truly understand the difficulty of this fight.
He wore an expression of unprecedented seriousness,
and a fighting spirit he had never shown before.
His gaze, upon closer inspection, was strikingly similar to Yun Xiaoxiao's when she was roused to battle—
like a leopard locking onto its prey, eager to strike.
Lei Ming and the others wanted to help, but Lu Chen refused.
He said he wanted to try it alone.
If he truly couldn't handle it, they could step in.
Lei Ming and the others had no choice but to stand by.
This stubborn side of Lu Chen was something they had never seen before.
In the end, a miracle happened.
The fight had been evenly matched,
and Lu Chen had been at a disadvantage for some time.
But during the battle, he suddenly leveled up!
Just... out of nowhere, in the middle of the fight, he leveled up!
Lei Ming and the others were stunned.
Such a situation was truly hard to imagine.
Unsurprisingly, Lu Chen single-handedly defeated the level-six high-stage mutated zombie.
Lei Ming and the others were left in awe and admiration.
Strong, incredibly strong!
No wonder the little base leader trusted him to take on such a heavy responsibility.
With strength like this, who wouldn't be convinced?
What do you think?
