Chapter 228 Villain's Face

Guo He's face turned ashen: "Jiang Jing! I already said I believed you, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to wipe us out?"

Jiang Jing shrugged: "That's unfair of me. I really don't know these brave kids. Maybe it's just that you look repulsive..."

He Zhu strode over: "We don't know this kind-looking uncle at all. Older people should learn to look for the cause within themselves when things go wrong."

He sized Guo He up and down: "Look at the menacing faces of your Guo family... tsk tsk, classic villain faces."

Lu Nange and the others silently gave a thumbs up—Old He, you really know how to play the double standard perfectly!

Guo He quietly placed his hand on the walkie-talkie behind his waist: "Since that's the case, then let's die together."

Upon hearing the coded signal, the person on the other end of the walkie-talkie immediately ordered: "Move out!"

Jiang Jing: "Die together? Guo He, you overestimate me..."

"boom--!"

A deafening explosion suddenly rang out, and the ground trembled violently.

Not far away, several menacing mushroom clouds rose into the sky.

The enormous sound instantly shattered the silence, and the zombies in all the occupied areas of Ping City instantly erupted into chaos.

The roars and howls rose and fell, growing louder as they approached.

Jiang Zhian's face turned deathly pale: "Dad, the explosion site... seems to be in the occupied area less than three kilometers from us!"

Guo He grinned maliciously as he backed away: "Didn't expect that, did you? I've been prepared for both scenarios. You want me dead? Then we'll all be buried with you!"

The roar of engines could be heard in the distance, and headlights pierced through the dust as the car sped toward the Jiang family base.

Jiang Jing grabbed Guo He by the collar: "Guo He, you bastard, you're fucking insane! These are all living, breathing human lives!"

"That's your life, what does it have to do with me?" Guo He suddenly broke free and fled in panic with his men.

Gu Qi, Chi Yi, Ji Xian, and Luo Xingyou had already blocked the Guo family's escape route.

"Boom—"

Chi Yanzhou's lightning and Lu Nange's wind blades struck simultaneously.

Guo He was instantly charred black by the attack and then cut in half at the waist.

Gu Wan coldly stared at the corpse: "It deserved to die."

On the other side, Gu Qi and the others were quickly cleaning up the remaining Guo family floral shirts.

A light emanated from Gu Qi's palm, and the floral shirt in front of him was instantly dried out, turning into a shriveled corpse.

The roar of engines grew closer in the distance, and it seemed that the faint "hoarse" sounds of zombies could also be heard.

Jiang Jing said urgently, "May I ask your names? But please evacuate immediately! This place is about to fall!"

Jiang Zhiwang gripped the golden staff tightly, his knuckles turning white: "The big shots, retreat first! Dad, Sister, you two hurry back to the base to organize the evacuation. I'll cover the rear!"

"Brother Wang, we'll stay and help you!"

"Yes, more people means more help!"

Lu Nange withdrew her spiritual power and looked directly into the boy's eyes: "Are you simply courting death or taking a gamble?"

"Let's take a gamble!" Jiang Zhiwang said without hesitation.

Lightning crackled at Chi Yanzhou's fingertips: "Then let's gather all the ability users willing to fight and stop the zombie horde!"

Jiang Zhian's voice trembled with anxiety: "Big brothers, it's not that we don't trust you! It's just that there are too many zombies; we can't stop them at all. We don't want to drag you into this. Get out of here while there's still time!"

"Whoosh—"

Several wind blades flashed past, and the last few Guo family superhumans fell to the ground.

Lu Nange shook her hand...

The Jiang family members gasped in astonishment—this strength was definitely above level four!

Jiang Zhiwang: [So handsome!]

Jiang Zhian: [This little sister is so cool, no wonder my brother likes her, I like her too!]

"A-Wang, bring the megaphone!" Jiang Jing looked up at the wall covered with glass.

"Gangzi," Lu Nange called softly.

The macaw spread its wings, which were more than three meters wide, and with a stretch of its sharp claws, lifted Jiang Jing into the air.

"This...this is?" Liu Fang stammered in fright.

Lu Xici reassured him, "Uncle Jiang, don't be nervous. Gangzi won't hurt you; he's just trying to help you..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Jing stopped struggling and relaxed his body.

Gangzi flew into the air, and Jiang Jing raised the megaphone, his voice resounding throughout the entire base.

"Attention everyone! This is Jiang Jing! The zombie horde from the occupied zone is closing in on us!"

"Anyone with supernatural abilities who are willing to fight together, assemble at the main gate immediately!"

"Anyone with special abilities who needs to protect their families, please stay at the base and safeguard our homeland and the loved ones of all of us!"

Jiang Jing shouted it three times, and the entire base instantly erupted in cheers.

Some grabbed weapons and rushed out, some said goodbye to their families with tears in their eyes, and many more spontaneously formed patrol teams, ready to fight...

When Gangzi brought Jiang Jing back to the ground, the base gate was already completely blocked by vehicles.

People abandoned their cars and walked out, men, women, and children flocking out and forming a stream of people at the entrance.

Jiang Jing stood before the crowd: "These young people are complete strangers to us, yet they are willing to..."

"Uncle Jiang! The zombies are coming!" Lu Nange interrupted.

Jiang Jing nodded, then immediately changed his tune: "These are all level three or four ability users. They're big shots that A-Wang and An'an invited to help. Although they're complete strangers to us, they're willing to risk their lives for us. From now on, if we want to protect our base, we have to follow their orders!"

Although Lu Nange and her group looked far too young—there were even children, parrots, and walking plants, making for a rather odd lineup.

But at this moment, the superhumans who came out of the base had absolute trust in Jiang Jing, and no one raised any objections.

Even the most argumentative people, who usually love to nitpick, nodded solemnly at this moment.

Chi Yanzhou: "Protect yourselves! If you encounter any high-level zombies, lure them towards us!"

"Go!" Lu Nange turned around and rushed forward.

The group followed Lu Nange and the others, moving forward at a rapid pace.

Lu Nange unleashed her full mental power, warning Shi Xu as she ran, "Those zombies will be your toys later. You can kill them, but you're not allowed to keep them as pets!"

Shi Xu's eyes lit up, and she nodded obediently: "Okay, I'll listen to Lu Lu."

In less than five minutes, the piercing horn was already close at hand.

Lu Beiye clenched his fist suddenly, and the vehicle in front of him instantly twisted and deformed, and the noise stopped abruptly.

The zombies' howling 'hoho' sounds grew closer and closer.

Lu Nange suddenly stopped in her tracks, standing on an open space surrounded by walls on three sides.

Ahead lay a crossroads. She scanned the area with her mental energy—the other three roads were blocked by ruins, but the one beneath their feet led directly to the Jiang family base.

"Set up defenses right here!" she shouted sternly. "Level one and two Earth and Metal elemental users, stay here. Raise your shields at this location now!"

Jiang Jing: "Everyone else stay put. Level 1 and 2 Earth elementalists, and Metal elementalists, move to the back of the group and take three steps back."

"Understood!" The level one and two earth and metal elemental ability users quickly ran behind the group.

"Wait—" Lu Nange suddenly shouted, "Shields facing outwards! Don't turn your backs to the zombies! You are the last line of defense!"

Level one and two metal and earth elemental ability users turned around in unison to face the crowd: "Survive, brothers and sisters, we're here waiting for you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, layers of golden shields and earthen walls rose from the ground.
