Lang Hua and his party of twenty-three people rushed from south to north, like rebels in the tide of corpses, and the Corpse King couldn't help but notice them. Not long after setting off, their whereabouts were fully exposed, and the ability users suffered the fiercest counterattack.
Behind the tide of corpses three kilometers away from Lang Hua, the mutated corpse king that looked exactly like Xing Lili was spinning in circles, looking very anxious. She lifted up her gray robe to reveal a pair of small white hands, with long and sharp nails on her fingertips. The Corpse King turned left and right, pushing the special black corpses around him, leaving hideous wounds on their bodies. But on the other hand, those peak level 3 gorillas and shields remained silent, as honest as cats when "Xing Lili" roared.
At this time, "Xing Lili" looked towards the direction of Lang Hua and others as if she had a feeling. Although she was several kilometers away from them, "Xing Lily" seemed to be able to see the whereabouts of Lang Hua and others, and felt that Lang Hua was killing a large number of her men.
Finally, the Corpse King "Xing Lili" roared angrily, lying on the ground like a wild beast, letting out a harsh child-like scream. For a moment, the entire zombie wave suddenly rioted. Ignoring the black corpses that had already invaded the outer city, the corpses still outside the edge of the defense line all turned around and attacked Lang Hua and others.
"Chief, there are too many black corpses here!"
"I don't know what happened, but now even the corpses in the distance have noticed us."
"Damn it! There are several groups of corpses blocking the road ahead, and the possibility of us passing smoothly is extremely low!"
"There is news from the Ministry of Information that there are two groups of specially infected corpses approaching here from the northwest and northeast at a fast speed. We must leave here as soon as possible."
"Change formation! Da Zhuang, come to the front. Everyone, follow me!"
"I'm coming too!"
A strong figure appeared in response. He carried a machete and a steel shield on his back, raised the Vulcan cannon with both hands and pointed it forward, spraying countless machine gun bullets filled with anger forward.
The orange-yellow ball of gun flame penetrated the muzzle for half a meter. The human eye could not see the flow of thousands of bullets per minute, but could see countless red-hot bullet casings piled up into a hill at Da Zhuang's feet. The pile of shell casings gradually reaching his ankles only meant that the ammunition box on his shoulder was being emptied rapidly.
“Buzz buzz, buzz—”
It took half a second for the Vulcan Cannon to exit from the state of firing at a constant speed. Gray-black smoke filled the air, and the seven gun barrels turned from red to black. Looking at the black corpses in front of everyone, a large area had been cleared, and a narrow passage suddenly appeared in the dense tide of corpses.
"Go quickly! Rush out before the corpses react."
Now that the whereabouts have been exposed, there is no need for people to hide the sound of fighting. Others took out rifles or submachine guns and followed Da Zhuang, raising their guns and shooting without scruples, just to break out of the encirclement in the shortest possible time.
This was repeated three times, and after half an hour, the ammunition box on Da Zhuang's back finally bottomed out.
There was a click, and no more bullets were fired. Da Zhuang's red face turned pale, and he took off all the ammunition boxes and multi-barreled machine guns on his body with a heart, and turned them around like a meteor hammer, taking out several wanted ones. The black corpse of the ghost monkey got up and hit its head badly.
"Why is it misfiring?"
"Let's go! No more bullets!"
The reliability of the Vulcan cannon is very high. In theory, it will only malfunction when the number of rounds exceeds 25,000. But even if there is no malfunction, the amount of ammunition a person can carry is limited. If he hadn't been consciously controlling the rate of fire, he might not have been able to last even ten minutes this time!
"What should we do? There are still many black corpses ahead!"
"Grenade! Squat down!"
With a "swish" sound, a 30mm rifle grenade flew past several people's cheeks, instantly blasting away several gorillas blocking the way. In the smoke of the explosion, Lang Hua drew out his knife and bounced it past Hou Lijian, who was holding a carbine. He came to the front of the team, slashed left and right and killed three black corpses lying on the ground.
"Everyone else is free to shoot. Those with abilities will take action at the right time. Don't waste too much crystal energy!" Lang Hua shouted, and then took the lead and rushed forward. The light of the sword shines brightly and flies like shadows. A second-level special feeling must be killed with every sword strike.
Gradually, the attention of the entire zombie wave was attracted here. Countless black corpses followed one after another, and people had to endure unprecedented pressure.
"Sniper! Twenty meters ahead, a spit is about to bulge!" a person with abilities walking in front said anxiously.
"Pa—" As soon as he finished his words, he saw that the spitting black corpse was exploded by a bullet. The venom originally filled in its round belly now splashed out in all directions, corroding the nearby ground and black corpse into curls of green. cigarette.
Among the advancing team, only Skinny Monkey remained motionless. He stood with his gun in hand, constantly pointing the muzzle of the sniper rifle at every bone spur and spit that threatened the ability user, killing them without mercy.
"Brother, he's a good shot."
His calmness and his perfect shots brought great shock to the ability users in Langya City.
"Skinny Monkey, it's almost time. Follow him quickly!" Li Yishan from the rear came near him and urged.
At this time, the sky was already bright and the people in the fierce battle suddenly heard a rumbling roar.
"Boom boom boom——"
"Chief, this is Chen Xinyan. The satellite shows that a group of helicopters appeared outside Langya City. The time was one minute ago, and the location was in the northwest."
"Buzz——"
The images returned by the satellite were delayed. By the time Chen Xinyan issued the warning, people could already see the unusual movements at the edge of the jungle.
There, the strong wind created by the propeller blades easily bent the treetops, and a green wave seemed to rise in the jungle. Then an armed helicopter in military green camouflage came out of the forest, then a second, a third, and finally more than thirty helicopters appeared over the jungle.
People had different expressions after seeing this team appear. The ordinary ability users were confused, Lin Wenjin and others were wary, and the Slender Monkey drank Da Zhuang but his face turned red. There was a kind of uncontrollable ecstasy in his expression.
"Da Zhuang, look, it's the helicopter brigade of our military region!"
"Great, the leader must have brought someone to rescue us."
This mixed helicopter group consists of two assault helicopter brigade and a transport helicopter brigade. Each helicopter is far apart from each other, but it is still spectacular from the perspective of Langya City.
Lang Hua followed the direction pointed by the thin monkey and saw a "Lotus on the Top of the Spring" logo on the fuselage. It was indeed the Army Aviation Regiment directly under the Southern Qi Military Region.
Since the beginning of the siege, Fu Lianhe has continued to post messages for help on the global satellite communication network Teledesic II, but no one has responded for so many days. It's better to be in the old army. When Lang Hua saw these helicopters, he felt hot in his chest, as if he had returned to the days when he joined the army in the 215th Regiment.
In his memory, this highly mobile and powerful Eagle brigade has always been under the direct command of General Yang Jianye of the Military Region. It wasn't until Yang Jianye died in an assassination attempt by a Star Thief that the Army Aviation Regiment was taken over by Yang Zhenghua, who was temporarily promoted to major general. Afterwards, the Army Aviation Regiment followed Yang Zhenghua in the apocalypse for six years, and was finally wiped out in the first major counterattack.
This is undoubtedly a heroic army and a legendary army. But since the three helicopter groups of the Army Aviation Regiment are here, does it mean that the old general is also nearby at this time?
While Lang Hua was looking far into the distance, the helicopter formation had already entered the sky above the corpse wave.
There were two pilots in each armed helicopter, and they all received Yang Zhenghua's orders the moment they flew over the corpse wave.
"I order your troops to stop the tide of corpses without hesitation of firepower. You must cut off these guys' offensive!"
"Yes!" "C1 Squadron received it!" "C2 Squadron received it!"...
In the lead aircraft of the formation, more detailed arrangements were being broadcast throughout the formation via radio.
"The cruise crew pays attention to reconnaissance and is on guard against flying corpse beasts, mutated birds or other possible flying variants."
"Attention, attack team, the laser guidance is fully activated, the radar system is locked, priority is given to destroying targets that may carry out long-range attacks, and all potential threats on the ground are found and eliminated!"
"The wingmen of each team should pay attention to support and cover, and the assault squadron is preparing to fly at ultra-low altitude to carry out rappelling. Everyone obeys the order, let me bloom in the center, and strike hard at these guys!"
“Buzz—” “Swish, swish, swish.”
Slender rockets were shot out from under the short wings of the helicopter. Dragging their orange flame tails, they quickly flew over the hillside, and then caused a big explosion in the center of the corpse tide, where the black corpses were densest!
"Bang!"
Not only was the area near the impact point of the shell completely emptied, but even the black corpses in the distance were not spared. They were all knocked over and thrown away by the air waves generated by the explosion.
An explosion occurred outside Langya City and produced a large amount of smoke and dust. In the smoke and dust, the flames ignited the clothes of the black corpses that fell to the ground, forming an endless wall of fire in the middle of the corpse tide. The wall of fire was more than ten feet high, cutting off the connection between the two black corpses at the front and back, causing the zombies who were naturally afraid of flames to stop for the first time.
The Type 24 armed helicopter of the Southern Qi Military Region has four standing pylons under its short wings and can load up to 128 57mm rockets. 36 planes are equivalent to 2052 rockets. Even a thousand troops might not be able to withstand a full-scale attack on Xia Rao!
Of course, pilots with military officer backgrounds are not willing to spend money foolishly. After a wave of bombings, the zombie attack was cut into two parts. Their goal has been achieved, now it's time to stand firm and continue to expand their results!
"What a powerful firepower."
The linear area of the explosion was less than a hundred meters away from the ability users. In front of the steaming heat wave, people were amazed at the effect of the rockets.
"As expected of a veteran military district, this is too trenchant."
"If this hits someone..."
The flying formations of the Southern Qi Military Region immediately circled the bombing center to expand their results. Countless rockets were fired frequently, blowing up some of the corpses that had gathered special effects.
Suddenly there were several whistling sounds, and several strange-looking cannonballs with white tails penetrated under the short wingtips of several combat helicopters. They are larger in diameter and longer than rockets, and have a symmetrical tail rudder that looks like a shark fin behind the butt.
"bass--"
In just half a second, this guy suddenly accelerated in the air and collided with several special-sense zombies, mostly gorillas and shields. In an instant, there was an explosion more violent than a rocket, and dozens of gorillas and shields were shattered into charred pieces under the thick black smoke.
Before the explosion, Li Yishan seemed to see those "cannonballs" turning on their own in the air. If his eyesight hadn't been strengthened by the arrow skill "Wheat Man", he would never have been able to detect it with the naked eye at the speed of the cannonball.
"Oh my god, it's a missile!"
Lin Wenjin was shocked. This guy's destructive power was so powerful that it would be an exaggeration to say that he could break mountains and rocks. If it explodes near them, no one will survive!
"What?"
"No, their target is the group of specially infected zombies near us. We will be affected!"
"Get out of here!"
"It's too late!" Lang Hua narrowed his eyes, alarm bells ringing in his heart. A Wuzhi seems to have aimed at this place. Suddenly, a strong sense of crisis spread throughout his body. This was a warning from the crystal core field. If he didn't do something, he would really die!
"Big-strong!"
Lang Hua stopped everyone and moved closer. The great hero in the crowd held up a steel shield in his arms, strode forward in front of everyone, and thrust a shield that was two people wide and one person high toward the ground.
"It's your order! Look at my physical enhancement!"
People quickly hid behind him, and then the shock wave of the explosion also arrived!
"boom--"
There was a huge earthquake on the ground, flying sand and rocks, and the melted deep pit was replaced by broken earth and rocks and broken special-sense corpses, which were then thrown far away in the shock wave.
The explosion occurred twenty meters away from people, instantly forming a high-temperature fireball that expanded violently outward. Not only that, the explosion also compressed the air to form high-pressure air waves. The air waves carried everything crushed by the explosion and spread outward at a speed of 5,000 meters per second, reaching people in just an instant!
"Dong——"
Like a bell ringing in an ancient temple, a huge shadow of a shield appeared in front of Da Zhuang and in front of the ordinary steel shield. After the shock wave touched the golden shadow, the shield shook, and at the same time, a similar shock wave was reflected to offset it.
After a false alarm, people hid behind Da Zhuang and were unscathed. Apart from feeling a strong wind blowing on their faces, there was nothing else.
"This kind of defense..."
People were glad to have escaped death, but they were also stunned that Da Zhuang had such powerful defensive skills. Thinking that Da Zhuang was only a first-level peak ability user, people felt their mouths dry for a while.
What they don't know is that this is the famous stunt of the previous life - "Golden Shield".
It was precisely because of Da Zhuang and his golden shield that Lang Hua's team in the previous life was able to make outstanding achievements in the battle of the Black Blood Altar. It can be said that among low-level ability users, Lang Hua has never seen a better defensive skill than the Golden Shield! If it weren't for Da Zhuang, Lang Hua wouldn't have dared to point his sword at the Corpse King this time and lead his men to break into the Dragon Pond and Tiger's Den again.
"Brother Lang Hua, you seem to have great trust in Da Zhuang's ability." In the aftermath of the battle, Li Yishan had been observing Lang Hua's expression.
Of course, Lang Hua couldn't say that it was just a subconscious command just now, but an unconditional trust in his memory, and the training of fighting side by side for three years.
"Where," Lang Hua explained, "After all, Da Zhuang is the only defensive ability user in our team. If I don't rely on him, who else can I rely on?"
"Haha, well said." Li Yishan glanced at him appreciatively, "A few of us were brought out of Shashi by you by chance. I also received a sword from you. No matter what, I must repay you now."
The next moment, Li Yishan laughed loudly, held the knife in front of him with one hand, and charged forward with a horse. Many shields and gorillas that had not recovered from the explosion were easily killed by Li Yishan with a blue long-handled Mo Dao.
This "Purple Night" Mo Dao, which has been refined by a large amount of black corpse brains, will be the first gift Lang Hua gives to Li Yishan in this life. After all, Lang Hua's Modao sword master was inherited from Li Yishan, so it would be a good idea to give this Modao sword to him.
"Whoosh——"
At Lang Hua's signal, Xiao Heizi fired a purple flare and was quickly discovered by people on the plane.
"Stop the bombardment and pay attention to the people below!" The colonel in the lead plane immediately issued an order, "The attacking squadron should pay attention to avoid the survivors in the zombie wave. Blue British Army, follow me to surrender and rescue people!"
"yes!"
The pilot of Wuzhi pushed the control column forward at a constant speed, causing the automatic tilter to tilt forward, the rotor cone to tilt forward, and the component of tension on the rotor transverse axis to increase, achieving an accelerated dive. A 30mm cannon on the nose of the aircraft fired a stream of high-speed bullets, knocking down the black corpses on both sides like wheat.
The next moment was like a magic weapon descending from the sky. In the transport helicopter in the center, one after another, fully armed soldiers landed on the ground through long ropes. The total number was close to two hundred. After landing, these people quickly formed an assault team and used the bullets in their hands to quickly clear the area of the black corpses that fell to the ground.
They were approaching in the direction of Lang Hua and others. Did they actually want to save these ability users?
…
At the same time, there was also a group of people quietly observing on Dongshan Mountain opposite Qishui.
After seeing the Southern Qi Military Region participating in the war, the leading man smiled and put down his binoculars. He has a black cloak lined with bright red, an oval face, crescent eyebrows, a lean figure, and a straight spine, making him look like a young man.
But looking at this face that has made headlines countless times, who would not know that this is the 44-year-old Qin Kaiwen, the contemporary head of the Qin family for thirteen years, and the current president of the multinational group "Qinchuan"?
Many security personnel stood far away on the cliff. The man and woman who could follow Qin Kaiwen would only be his two closest people. One person has long hair and the other person is in a neat suit. They are the eldest lady and young master of the Qin family, Qin Xiaowen and Qin Chusheng, whom Lang Hua has not seen for many days.
When Qin's father looked coldly at the battle in the distance, it was Qin Xiaowen who couldn't help but rush to speak.
"Dad, when are we going to send troops?"
At this moment, Qin Xiaowen's beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted together, and she was walking around as anxiously as an ant on a hot pot, but Qin's father remained unmoved at all.
"Dad..." Qin Xiaowen shook the other person's arm coquettishly.
Annoyed by the noise, Qin's father had no choice but to pat him to comfort him.
He turned to look at his son and asked, "Chu Sheng, what do you think?"
The latter thought for a while and said: "Since the Yang family has sent troops, we might as well do a betting business. With the Yang and Qin families taking action together, the probability of losing money should be much smaller."
"It's good that you didn't just talk about justice." Father Qin glanced at his heir with satisfaction, and then looked at Qin Xiaowen.
"Wen'er, now that you are an adult, you must understand this truth as soon as possible. The reason why the Qin family has been able to be glorious for hundreds of years depends on the persistence and hard work of each generation, and on the inward unity of everyone in the family."
"You cannot survive in this world by talking only about kindness and fraternity."
Qin Xiaowen lowered her head and muttered: "But I just want to save people, is this wrong?"
Father Qin couldn't help but sigh as he looked at his daughter, whom he usually loved the most. Perhaps only when facing her, Qin Kaiwen would show rare patience.
He said: "When the Qin family is within its means, I do not object to you making concessions and benefiting others appropriately for the sake of the overall situation. But you two must remember that if one day the international situation takes a turn for the worse, those who can protect the 200,000 survivors of Qinchuan Just yourselves.”
"What about them?" Qin Xiaowen shook her head and argued, "It would be great if they came to help us when the time comes."
"Haha..." Father Qin laughed at her naivety, "Some people won't help, and some people may be too busy to take care of themselves. The 'fair world hypothesis' is just a fallacy. If people consider each other all the time, unite How could the government issue an arbitrary order to drop nuclear bombs in central China?”
As he spoke, the luster in Qin Kaiwen's eyes gradually faded: "If we really get to that critical moment, you will know how valuable it is to preserve your strength early."
"But... as long as everyone becomes stronger together, it will be fine." Qin Xiaowen said stubbornly, "You help me today, and I will help you tomorrow, and we will soon be able to overcome the difficulties."
"Surviving the difficulties... is not easy in the apocalypse." Father Qin shook his head with a smile, "It is only the first year of the disaster, and mankind is already stretched thin in the face of a series of natural and man-made disasters. I have a premonition... I am afraid that the disasters we will face in the future will There will be more.”
Qin Chusheng said respectfully, "But father, what my sister said makes sense. Human beings are like ants in the face of disasters. Perhaps only by making allies, cooperating and competing with other forces can our Qin family go further."
"I never said that..." Qin Xiaowen's face turned red and she lowered her head silently.
She is just naturally soft-hearted, but she is not a fool who doesn't understand anything.
Since grandpa took a back seat, father and son Qin Kaiwen and Qin Chusheng have been in charge of all matters of the Qin family. Qin Xiaowen has never intervened in these matters, nor has she ever raised any opposing opinions.
All the time. She supports her father and brother's decisions in her own way. But what Qin Xiaowen didn't understand was that since the Qin family's troops had gone to Shashi with great effort, they should have come to help.
But why haven't we started saving people yet? Qin Xiaowen has not seen the horror of the corpse tide. She knows that the longer the delay is, the more dangerous the people in Langya City will be. Not only sister Xinyan, Xiao Heizi and the weird Yang Xiaoxiao, but also... that Lang Hua, what should they do if they have an accident?
Thinking of this, Qin Xiaowen's little hands hidden in her sleeves twisted together tightly, with a look of loss on her face.
Qin Kaiwen, who noticed something strange about his daughter, shook his head.
"After the nest was overturned, the eggs were intact." Qin Kaiwen said, "Yes, that's why I brought you here today. Chu Sheng, I heard that you gave Langya City an Osprey?"
"Yes. I think Langya City has the value of making friends. And it is an indisputable fact that they saved Wen'er."
"You mean that little bottle of potion?"
"Yes, pharmaceuticals are one of the reasons. The research institute at Qinchuan Base has issued an inspection report a few days ago. The starlight grass discovered in Langya City does have a magical effect."
"That means we can't imitate it at the moment, right?"
"I'm afraid that's the case." Qin Chusheng added, "And according to the news reported by Xia Qing and Xia Shuang, the chief and deputy city lords of Langya City were brave and resourceful in dealing with the disaster some time ago. The deputy city lord Lang Hua's sensitivity and understanding of the process of the end of the world are Their judgment is also better than that of ordinary people. I think if we can support them to grow up, I believe it will be a good help to the Qin family."
"But as far as I know, the person who made the potion was not the chief and deputy city lord of Langya City, but a young female researcher, right?"
Qin Chusheng blushed, knowing that Qin Kaiwen had guessed it.
"Father, please forgive me for making my own decisions. Because whether it is for personal feelings or for the family relationship between Qin and Chen, I cannot just watch Xinyan be in danger."
Qin Kaiwen put his hands behind his back and said, "Sheng Chu, do you know how the Qin family was able to become bigger and stronger in the first generation?"
"Please ask father for advice."
"It was the vision and courage of the first-generation head of the family who dared to venture into areas that ordinary people dare not touch, and who dared to stand up and be the first to take advantage of the situation when everyone was living a stable and peaceful life in their own one-third of an acre of land. people."
"Risks always coexist with opportunities. There are never free benefits in this world, and there are never unbloody benefits."
"Not many people are optimistic about Langya City this time. In their hearts, there is only a civilian base of 8,000 people. Maybe it will be completely wiped out by the first wave of zombie attacks. But Langya City has persisted for four years. God, that’s a miracle in itself.”
"Naturally our Qin family cannot be absent from the miracle that follows."
"Father, what do you mean?"
Qin Kaiwen had a smile on his face, and he seemed to have an unparalleled confidence and charm at this moment.
"You must remember that justice must also put interests first. If not, no organization will be able to survive in this apocalypse."
"Chu Sheng, you are very similar to me in temperament. Since we are doing business, either we don't do it or we make a big gamble. Eight thousand versus one million, what kind of odds is this? Sometimes investing As important as taking sides, it requires vision and courage. I think Wolf Cliff City is worth a try."
"That's great, Dad, I love you to death." Qin Xiaowen happily hugged one of Qin's father's arms and refused to let go.
Qin Chusheng also said excitedly: "My father is wise."
"The eldest lady of the Chen family is now in a dangerous city. I'm afraid you must have been as anxious as an ant on a hot pot."
Qin Chusheng smiled and said, "Father, you are teasing me again."
"Hahaha, it's nothing. I think my father was born at your age. Young people just want to be frivolous and unrestrained." Qin Kaiwen waved his right hand casually, "Go ahead and chase after you if you like it. I believe that I, Qin The heir to the Sichuan Group will be no worse than anyone else in the world."
"Yes, my child takes orders."
At this time, Lin Hai shook, and the sound of the propeller became louder and louder. Qin Kaiwen looked at the sky, smiled and put his hands behind his back.
"Listen, our support is here."
