Chapter 149: Chapter 144: The Floodgate (Vote for Monthly Tickets!)Everyone gears up and begins to take part in the airport’s defenses. Du Du Wu Wu!!! The glowing fire from the 1130 Close-in Weapon System illuminates the sky. Above, the giant silhouettes of Atmospheric Jellyfish slowly curl their umbrella edges nearer, and zombies piled up on the high walls start to climb one after another. Sou sou! Various pre-loaded missiles blast towards the taller Abnormal Bodies within that horde of zombies – those humanoid White Giant Monsters, black centipedes scaling along tracks, along with various queer creatures Lin Xian had never seen before, constantly emerging in the city streets. These Abnormal Bodies don’t discriminate between friend or foe; they devour the zombies while simultaneously launching assaults towards the airport. The bright lights of the airport seem to instill a semblance of dread in these Abnormal Bodies. They hide in shadows and darkness, or unexpectedly scale the high walls, claiming the lives of several soldiers before retreating under the overwhelming force of heavy gunfire. Boom Boom Boom!!! With more survivors and Superpower Users joining the fray, the pressure on the Iron Guard Brigade along the defense lines is somewhat alleviated. "Don’t you guys feel that there are simply too many zombies and Abnormal Bodies in this city?" Lin Xian and the others sit in a shuttle bus at the airport, quickly heading towards Gate A. KIKI frowns, looking at the wall of flames engulfing the high walls, "This feeling is as though those monsters had received some kind of notice and have all surged over here." "Could it be they have some zombie leader, hence deliberately launching a charge at us?" Lu Xingchen’s imagination is always quite wild. "Didn’t we just mention it? That corpse chaser, maybe you guessed right." Jiang Yun responds. "Right." Lin Xian turns to Jiang Yun sitting in front and asks, "I heard you had an encounter with the Black Crow Four-man Team. How did you end up together with the emergency team?" Jiang Yun, wearing sunglasses, turns his head and says, "I and the big-bearded convoy encountered that Atmospheric Jellyfish by Ping’e Lake. The Iron Guard Brigade was also there..." Lin Xian recalls something, "A few hours ago, we and Shu Qin, Xu Jin, and others took down that Black Crow Four-man Team." "Is that so? Well done; I owe you a favor." Jiang Yun cracks a slight smile, his expression somewhat desolate, and softly says, "Danger lurks at every turn on this journey; not everyone is lucky." ... Lin Xian remains silent, recalling that Jiang Yun and his junior seemed to share a good relationship, and couldn’t help but sigh softly in his heart. Next to him, Sha Sha is busily stuffing her Grenade Gun with shells. She carries a large backpack, filled with ammunition that Lin Xian had prepared for her. Lin Xian had initially made her a sturdy bulletproof backpack to carry the ammunition, but it was too heavy, and the young girl couldn’t even straighten her back carrying it... Therefore, he plans, when he has the ability to create external armor, to tailor-make a set for Sha Sha as well. Without Superpowers and being young, he still feels somewhat uneasy with her frequently joining them on the battlefield. Fortunately, Building is always by her side, ready to watch over her. Wei Kexue is a slim middle-aged man who is buried in his computer, operating something. He then speaks anxiously, "This isn’t good. Those monsters seem very clever, as if they’re starting to converge on Gate A." His words, as if confirming Lu Xingchen’s joking remarks, sound eerily uncanny to the listeners. Bang Bang Bang!! Boom Boom Boom!!! The deafening barrage of gunfire intensifies as several shuttle buses gradually approach Gate A, which is on the verge of being overrun. Hundreds of Iron Guard Brigade soldiers form layers of containment. The giant sluice gates have been opened to about a two-meter gap, with countless zombies swarming in. The sweeping machine guns and grenade shells from the high walls continually fire at the larger Abnormal Bodies outside, piling up more and more zombie corpses to block the gate. "Building Sha Sha, you guys just focus on long-range cover fire, KIKI and Mr. Lu, help me clear a path later!" Before arriving, Lin Xian starts to give out orders in advance. "If we don’t close the gate, this momentum can’t be stopped." Jiang Yun says gravely, "Captain Lin, let me clear a path for you first." After speaking, he takes out the walkie-talkie and yells, "Hui Xian!" "Here!" The sound of a motorcycle engine quickly approaches, and the woman in a leather jacket from Jiang Yun’s team rapidly nears. Varoom, varoom, varoom - on the motorcycle, several small guided missiles launch and blast open the jam-packed gates. Then, the woman named Ren Hui Xian reaches into the void as if to grasp something invisible, then hurls it powerfully towards the gate! Boom Whizz! A terrifying blast of air pressure explodes, sending chunks of flesh and blood into the air. "We’ll take care of the outside!" Jiang Yun lifts his sunglasses slightly and turns his head to signal to Lin Xian, then he jumps off the shuttle bus. A gust of wind whips up, and he ascends into the air. "Wind power!" Lu Xingchen’s eyes gleam, "Not bad at all; the new world indeed abounds with talents. This ability can aid my fire, complementing me splendidly!" "You’ve fallen for him?" KIKI gave him a disdainful look. "That’s not right. A confidant in life is hard to find..." "Lu Xingchen!" Lin Xian cut him off directly, pointing at the tall wall, "Get up there, burn as many as you can." "As you wish!" The urgent task was to relieve pressure. If more zombies kept coming from outside, not only would the gate not close, but it might also be completely opened, and then it would be impossible to shut it again. "Two of the sluice gate power units are damaged, one of them is jammed by a steel cable!" Wei Kexue urgently said, holding a computer. "I know. Shut down and reboot all the sluice gate power units." "What?! If we shut them down, the sluice gates will be forced open immediately!!" "They won’t." The ferry car stopped, and everyone got off. Lin Xian pointed to KIKI and Lu Xingchen next to him, "Wait for the right moment, give them a few seconds." "I-I... I understand." Wei Kexue, looking panicked, nodded repeatedly. KIKI clapped her hands together, her eyes sparking with light, and she slowly rose into the air. Many of the surrounding survivors and soldiers from the Iron Guard Brigade were also startled upon seeing this scene. What’s happening today? Why can so many superpower users fly? Screech!!! A segment of a red earthworm, braving through a hail of bullets, squeezed into the gate, revealing swarms of feet that made one’s scalp tingle. At this sight of the gigantic worm, KIKI and Lin Xian finally understood that the abnormal bodies they saw were not the only ones, including the White Giant Monster; several shadows were also visible among the zombie horde. "Not this thing again!" Upon seeing the Red Worm, KIKI got irate, raising her hand and using her superpower to clutch the Red Worm, and then flipped her wrist. A tremendous twisting force immediately twisted the red earthworm like a twist pastry. Screech!!! The giant worm opened its maw and let out a piercing shriek, shaking the eardrums of Lu Xingchen who was standing in the front. He promptly raised his hand, and a stream of fine fire like white chains poured into the giant worm’s oral cavity, causing intense high temperatures and billowing black smoke. Within moments, the mouth and belly of the worm were scorched and unable to utter another sound. Just then, another crimson-red Human Skull suddenly burst out from the horde of zombies, opened its massive mouth, and blasted a flame wave towards the Iron Guard Brigade soldiers who were defending inside! "Watch out for the monster’s flame spray!" Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. A soldier cried out sharply, but in the next instant, a large explosion of flames and blood engulfed more than a dozen soldiers and survivors. "Ah!!!" Heart-wrenching screams erupted consecutively, as pungent smoke sprayed out in all directions. Ratatat! An Iron Guard 3 Mecha charged forward, facing the fire, with its autocannon unleashing a metal storm, ripping half of the Human Skull’s torso to shreds. Screech!!! Before people could recover from the shock of the colossal assailant, two long red tentacles suddenly sprung up above the high wall. Yet another gigantic red earthworm with hundreds of wriggling legs rushed into the defense formation, leaving a trail of blood in its wake. Ratatat!!! The Iron Guard Brigade soldiers fired their guns frantically in response, "Be careful!!" "It’s an Abnormal Body!" Booom! A massive wind blade surged forth, severing half of the red earthworm, its upper body plummeting down. Jiang Yun’s eyes were fierce as he shouted, "Not just one, look below." "The monster is spewing fire again, everyone dodge!" Below them, the Human Skull, with half of its torso remaining, started to crawl through the gap in the sluice gate, raising its skull and readying to spew fire again despite the barrage of bullets. The Iron Guard Brigade soldiers drew back in unison, firing wildly. Their bullets tore the Human Skull apart, scattering its limbs, yet the beast continued to breathe fire with an even brighter red from its mouth. Watching this scene, Lu Xingchen’s aura surged. "Damn it, daring to spew fire in front of the Fire God!"
