Chapter 581 - 500: I’m Back! (2)
It’s not because the number of enemies is too great, but because it’s unimaginable how many brothers will lose their lives in this battle.
"Yang Xinqi, Liu Yao, you two stay here with your men; don’t worry about the fight inside, but make sure no zombies get in. Understand?"
Zhang Su raised his hand and pointed.
The situation on the road outside wasn’t optimistic; the combat personnel inside the mall were unaware, and hundreds of zombies were lining up, squeezing into the mall...
Their appearance directly cut off the entrances and exits to Lego Mall, even shattering the glass curtain walls. Zombies roaming the streets trying to rush in had to overcome their defenses, and the zombies inside the mall were attracted by the newly arrived blood. Large numbers turned from the outer edges of the encirclement, pouncing on the new humans, performing ’love the new and loathe the old’ thoroughly.
"Yes, got it!"
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Liu Yao and Yang Xinqi dared not hesitate for a second; the scene was chaotic, the mission arduous, but they had no retreat!
"Brothers, in pairs, attack and defend. I don’t want to hear anyone got bitten!"
After briefly assigning tasks, Zhang Su turned to look inside the mall, tilting his head to say to Zheng Xinyu: "Stay with me, don’t get lost!"
Having said this, he stomped on an exquisite piece of glass, shattering it, then dashed out like an arrow, heading straight into the densest area of zombies.
"Bozai, Teacher Yu, hang in there!"
Zheng Xinyu screamed sharply, knowing it wasn’t just Lu Yubo and Yuwen remaining in Lego Mall, but in the rush, only remembered those she was closest to, roaring as she swung the steel rod while following Zhang Su into the zombie horde.
"Uncle, hang in there! Brother Lu, protect my father-in-law!"
Zhao Dezhu looked at the distant, seething mass, knowing that was where everyone was trapped. Kill intentions surged in his heart, as if he had been notified there was a basket of fish to kill just after work, and these crazed zombies in front were like those fish flopping out of the basket, smelly and reeking!
Beside him, Chen Hanzhou and Pang Dakun said nothing, clenching their teeth as they charged forward. Their combat strength was already quite formidable; especially now, following King Yama forward, they weren’t afraid even of giants, but Liu Yao couldn’t say this...
Qi Xiaoshuai turned his head; his partner was Ju Mumio, but in an instant, she was gone, leaving his face dry.
A ghostly figure moved after Zhang Su issued his command; Ju Mumio chose a very tricky attack route, packed with disordered clutter and obstacles, yet the spread of zombies wasn’t scarce. The rugged path made her feel at ease, as if it were her main battlefield.
She didn’t like partnering with others, destined to proceed alone like a dancer in the dark.
"Xiaoya, talk to me!"
Wang Xin followed closely beside Zhao Dezhu, his face filled with urgency, because his loved one was trapped inside the mall with her life uncertain. Eyes reddened, he stabbed zombies while shouting loudly.
"I... Ah, get away!"
Zhang Ya heard Wang Xin’s call, a wave of excitement filled her heart, tears instantly mixed with sweat flowing down her cheeks. But before she could respond, a zombie pounced beside her, forcing her to deal with it immediately.
"You heartless bastard, ditching people for others; we are all trying to survive... ah!"
Liu Tianji knew Zhang Ya wanted to respond, and hurriedly spoke during a gap. But in his carelessness, a zombie swooped at him from the side, biting down on his hand. The cotton glove couldn’t block the zombie’s sharp teeth, immediately spilling blood.
"Ah?!"
Lu Yubo’s eyes were bloodshot, fighting with his body’s potential as if squeezing every cell dry, enhancing his abilities. He instantly noticed Liu Tianji getting bitten, and with a swoosh, stabbed the zombie dead without loosening its jaw, then swiftly drew a dagger from his waist.
He didn’t give Liu Tianji a chance to speak, grabbing the bitten arm, slicing down across the sleeve beyond the bulletproof vest; alas...
Though the dagger was sharp, the wrist bone wasn’t fragile; combined with Lu Yubo’s somewhat lacking strength, it jammed halfway, unable to cut through.
"Ahh..."
Liu Tianji knew what Lu Yubo intended, but couldn’t help screaming looking at his wrist’s terrible condition, not from pain, but fear.
"Damn it, get on with it, get on with it!"
After hacking four times, the hand finally fell; Lu Yubo grinned, tossing it aside casually, then pushed Liu Tianji into the crowd: "Stop your own bleeding!"
With exceptional hearing, Zhang Su couldn’t know what happened with Liu Tianji; his brain’s information collection speed was limited, incapable of soaking in all the mall’s chaotic sounds, especially as his full focus was on combat.
The white mist enveloped him, light and quick steps, arms flying—his speed at slaughtering zombies was astonishing.
Initially surprised by enhanced zombies, because he wasn’t yet adjusted to their intensity. But after battling hulks, Zhang Su had a clear understanding of the zombies now, knowing the enemy and himself, winning every battle.
He was certainly aware of his strength, and having grasped the zombies’ power levels, knew precisely how to fight!
The white mist significantly aided Zhang Su in dealing with multiple foes, first blocking teammates within the range, focusing solely on approaching zombies. Multi-tasking, his left hand with a steel rod performed pinpoint kills, and the more powerful right arm activated area damage mode, wrist like iron cast steel forged, as the military knife sliced through a swath. Zombies that dared stretch towards him gained no advantage!
