In an apocalypse overrun by zombies and full of lurking dangers, a saying has always circulated: "When light is devoured, it is the day of the Enigma's descent. They will become the king of...

Chapter 27

Just as they were about to pull the person back, another ball of fire rushed towards Lou Tiannan.

Lu Jia's wooden vines were burned off, leaving only Zhou Yu's iron chain.

"I'll do it!" Zhou Yu shouted. The accelerated gravity caused by Lou Tiannan falling from a high altitude almost made him lose his grip on the chain. The chain slipped a few centimeters before he was able to hold it tightly in his palm again. The veins on his arm that were holding the chain were bulging. Lu Jia also hurried over to help.

Zhu Liang, Song Yan and others immediately used gunfire to cover Zhou Yu and Lu Jia. When they saw who was coming, they frowned. They had seen the two leading men before. They were the Chang Ping and Qi brothers who had been in the West Seventh District Shopping Mall before.

"I was wondering why there was so much noise here. Turns out it's someone we know!" Chang Qi tossed a fireball around like he was playing. "What a coincidence! Federal soldiers!"

"Heh, last time you couldn't win, you ran faster than anyone else, and this time you come to take advantage of me. You're worthy of being blood-bone trash!" Song Yan sneered.

After many days, Chang Qi was mocked by Song Yan again. Anger flashed across his face, and he threw the fireball in his hand directly at Song Yan.

Blocked by the water wall held up by Wen Xia Xia, "Sister Yan, be careful!"

Even though Wen Xia Xia was dressed in combat fatigues, her figure and voice made them recognize her as a woman. Chang Qi smiled and said, "Wow! A beautiful girl with water abilities. You don't look like an Alpha, are you a Beta? Or... an Omega?"

"Brother, don't forget the important things." Chang Ping reminded from the side, seeing that Zhou Yu was about to pull Lou Tiannan up successfully.

"Don't worry, I know." Chang Qi restrained his expression, and while launching flames to attack Wen Xia Xia, he also threw a fireball to attack Zhou Yu who was pulling Lou Tiannan.

Lu Jia turned around to block it.

In just a few seconds, Lou Tiannan had used the force to flip over.

When the people from Xue Gu saw Lou Tiannan standing up, their expressions changed.

"Long time no see, Captain Lou." Chang Qi's fingertips were flaming with fire, and he looked very arrogant.

The short hair on Wen Xia Xia's cheeks was soaked in order to fight against the fire-type ability, but Chang Qi obviously enjoyed the feeling of toying with the weak.

After Lou Tiannan came up, he pushed a cluster of flames directly from Wen Xia Xia's side to block Chang Qi's flames.

The collision of the flame powers on both sides gave Wen Xia Xia a sigh of relief.

As the flames collided, Lou Tiannan and Lin Bai's eyes froze for a moment. Chang Qi's strength was much stronger than what they had seen in the mall.

After two exchanges of moves, Lou Tiannan and his team were at a clear disadvantage. They were on the bridge, with a narrow range of movement and limited space to hide. Almost all of their vision was exposed to the eyes of the Blood and Bone Man.

In addition, the special abilities of the two brothers Chang Qi and Chang Ping increased significantly. The thorny vines wielded by Chang Ping could actually cut holes in the tough special combat uniforms, so Lou Tiannan and the others were at a disadvantage in the fight.

"Damn it! What kind of hormones did these two brothers take?! How did they become so strong?" Zhou Yu cursed.

Wen Xiaxia looked at their dark eye sockets and abnormally bulging muscles and guessed, "They must have eaten a lot of crystal cores and built up their bodies purely from them."

Even if they knew it now, it would be useless. The rapid growth of energy brought by the crystal core is visible to the naked eye. The supernatural powers of Chang Qi and others can basically reach A-level, and Chang Qi and Chang Ping's level is particularly high.

Lou Tiannan, Zhou Yu and others were responsible for the firepower in the front.

Zhu Liang and Song Yan used double guns to suppress the blood and bone people with firepower and prevented them from coming up.

Amidst all this firepower, some of the Blood and Bone people had to constantly be on the lookout for blades that might suddenly fly towards them.

At first, when I saw the scratches on the arms, bleeding on the face, and torn seams on the clothes, I didn't understand what was going on. I had clearly dodged the federal army's supernatural powers, so why was he still injured? It was not until Chang Qi dodged a knife with his face turned that a trace of blood appeared on his cheek.

His eyes immediately locked onto Lin Bai behind Lou Tiannan. He licked his teeth, his eyes sinister: "Woman, are you looking for death?"

As soon as he finished speaking, flames rushed towards Lin Bai.

"Lin Bai, be careful!" Zhou Yu was too busy with his own affairs to remind him.

Chang Qi and Chang Ping's eyes moved, "Lin Bai? It's you!"

They all remembered that Qiu Tu had ordered Lin Bai to be captured alive.

Lin Bai dodged the flame attack by moving sideways, and swung out a black blade, "It's your aunt."

Chang Qi leaned back to avoid the black blade, but when he stood up, he was caught off guard and was slashed hard on the back by the black blade that was spinning back.

Lin Bai held the hilt of the knife, and a drop of blood fell along the groove of the knife.

"Brother Chang, the situation is not good!" One of his men suddenly said anxiously.

"Why is it so bad?" Chang Qi said impatiently.

"Those zombies are coming!"

Chang Qi looked around and found that most of the zombies were rushing towards them at some point. He quickly understood the reason.

He cursed, "You bunch of idiots, quickly plug your wounds!"

The smell of blood greatly stimulated the zombies.

Blood and Bones' men were entangled by zombies, and the advantage of the broken bridge was revealed. The zombies at the gap in the broken bridge could not get through, and the first target of the zombies under the bridge was Blood and Bones, which emitted an "attractive" bloody smell.

Lou Tiannan and others breathed a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, in just a few tens of seconds, Chang Qi and Chang Ping launched another attack on the people on the bridge, and the attack was even more fierce.

The flaming wooden arrow flew straight towards Lou Tiannan and others.

Exhausted, Lu Jia and Zhu Liang were hit, and flames appeared on their combat uniforms. They quickly fell to the ground to extinguish the flames. Wen Xia Xia also rushed to help them check their injuries. Fortunately, the material of the combat uniforms was tough, and only some minor burns occurred at the cuts.

Before they finished firing the flaming arrows, Chang Qi and Chang Ping actually cut the bleeding wound of one of their men and threw him onto the bridge. Looking at the zombies that followed, Lou Tiannan frowned.

Zhou Yu and Song Yan were both sweating profusely. Lou Tiannan clasped his hands together and pushed out a wall of fire. The black flames were like the strongest line of resistance, isolating the zombies outside.

Chang Qi raised his chin and sneered, "Lou Tiannan, you're quite impressive. I'll see how long you can hold on!"

As long as the black flame wall is not destroyed, Chang Qi will throw one of his men covered in blood onto the bridge at any time and let the zombies attack.

Chang Qi was not panicked at all. Those people were on the bridge and had no way to retreat. They just stood in front and watched how they ran.

not to mention……

He watched his men crawling from under the bridge arch toward the broken bridge in preparation for a sneak attack, a sinister smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Seeing his smile, Lou Tiannan instinctively felt that something was wrong. Lin Bai was the first to discover that there was someone under the bridge. Her thermal imaging sensing system allowed her to see the blurry figure under the bridge.

"There is someone under the bridge." Song Yan also discovered it quickly.

Seeing that they were discovered, the people of Xue Gu jumped onto the bridge, trying to catch them off guard. At the same time, the brothers Chang Qi and Chang Ping teamed up again.

boom!

The wood exploded onto the bridge deck with flames.

Wen Xia Xia, Xi Ya and others who had weaker resistance were knocked to the ground by the aftermath of the explosion. Zhu Liang, who had no special powers, also knelt on one knee on the ground, covering his chest, and his panting was obvious behind his mask.

Seeing this, Lou Tiannan reached into his pocket and crushed two level three zombie crystal cores. With the influx of energy from the crystal cores, he gathered a black flame fireball.

Chang Qi and Chang Ping didn't expect that Lou Tiannan had set up the fire wall for such a long time and it still had so much energy.

The fireball hit them on the head. Chang Qi and Chang Ping quickly jumped out of the fireball's attack range and jumped into the air. Chang Qi caught a glimpse of Lin Bai on the bridge.

He and Chang Ping exchanged glances.

Chang Ping immediately understood what his brother meant.

After landing, Chang Qi instantly threw a fireball onto the bridge, while Chang Ping took advantage of the time when they were resisting the fireball to accurately throw out thorny vines to tie up Lin Bai.

Lin Bai was in a position where he couldn't escape. "Mom!" Xiya screamed anxiously, using her supernatural power to try to burn through the thorns.

But her ability level was much lower than Chang Ping's, and that little flame couldn't even burn a leaf.

Chang Ping was extremely careful. In order to prevent Lin Bai from escaping, he tied Lin Bai's hands and feet with vines. Then, with a strong effort, they pulled Lin Bai from the bridge to the bottom.

While Lin Bai was still thinking about whether to perform a "broken hands and feet" show, she caught a glimpse of a black figure rushing towards her from the corner of her eye.

It’s Lou Tiannan.

Lou Tiannan noticed Lin Bai was about to be taken away, stepped onto the bridge pier, and flew forward to rescue him.

He threw a fireball directly to burn Chang Ping's vines, but Chang Qi on the other side also pushed out flames to stop him. Wen Xia Xia struggled to stand up and used up the last bit of his supernatural power to block Chang Qi's flames, but it still lacked some strength. The flames were deflected by the water and hit Lou Tiannan's chest.

Lou Tiannan was hit in the chest. He gritted his teeth and grabbed Lin Bai's arm. At the same time, Chang Ping's thorny vines were burned off by his supernatural power.

At this time, the two were already above the sea. As the vines broke, they fell straight down and both fell into the sea.

"Team Lou!"

Seeing this, Lu Jia and the others quickly used their special powers to rescue them, but they were exhausted and the special power chains they swung out could not match the speed at which the two people fell into the sea. With a splash, the two fell into the sea together.

Seeing Lou Tiannan and Lin Bai fall into the water, Chang Qi wanted to fight back, but was stopped by Chang Ping, "Brother, we can't fight. Our people are all down, and the zombie tide is coming this way!" Chang Ping is a cautious person. The first thing he considers is always the safety of his brother and himself. His caution has saved his life many times.

Chang Qi saw that a large number of zombies were indeed gathering here, so he didn't insist. After all, Lou Tiannan had been hit by his supernatural power and now fell into the sea. Seeing that he hadn't emerged for a long time, the probability of his survival was already slim. He said, "Okay, let's stay a while and let the zombies block their way."

The two brothers wanted the people on the bridge to die at the hands of zombies.

But who knew that while they were talking, the people on the bridge had already jumped into the sea.

"Are they looking for death?!" Chang Qi narrowed his eyes. He totally couldn't understand what these people were doing.

"Maybe they don't want to die at the hands of zombies, brother, let's retreat quickly!" Chang Ping has already seen the traces of the third-level zombies. It is obviously not suitable for them to stay for long now because they do not have enough energy.

Chang Qi saw several people floating in the sea. Not giving up, he reached out and threw a few fireballs into the sea, then said, "Let's go!"

"Dive down quickly!" Song Yan noticed the fireball coming and shouted to others.

Xiya was held in Zhou Yu's arms. Zhou Yu quickly pressed the oxygen mask on her face and dived into the sea with her.

After diving for only a few meters, they felt the sea water heating up and making an explosion sound. Fortunately, the sea water provided a buffer and they were not hurt.

The six people did not rush to show up. They waited for a few minutes to confirm that it was safe, and then emerged from the sea at Song Yan's signal.

There were no more Bloodbone Men on the shore, but the shore was full of zombies. They couldn't get ashore. They were connected by a chain of more than 100 kilometers. "Let's look for Captain Lou and Lin Bai first!"

They pulled each other with chains, but they were each carrying equipment, and moving in the sea was extremely difficult. After recovering, Lu Jiasheng took out the log, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief while holding the log.

"The intercom can't contact the building team." Lu Jia said loudly.

“I can’t get in touch with her either!”

"Let's go look for them underwater!" Zhou Yu handed Xiya to Song Yan. He, who was good at swimming, and Wen Xia Xia, who had water abilities, took turns diving into the sea to look for the two.

Zhu Liang and Lu Jia also sank down from time to time to search.

However, the sea was too deep and too vast, and the underwater vision was greatly obstructed. Several people dived back and forth several times but still did not see the two people.

Wen Xia Xia even held her breath and dived to the bottom of the sea but still didn't see Lou Tiannan and Lin Bai.

"Nothing!" she gasped.

"Is it possible that it was washed away by the undercurrent on the sea?" Zhu Liang guessed. He had some knowledge about the seaport. There was an undercurrent under the sea water of Tongtian Port, but this had no effect on those giant cargo ships.

This guess was immediately supported by Wen Xiaxia: "It's possible! I felt it a little bit just now at the bottom of the sea."

"Sister Xia Xia, Brother Liang, do you know which direction the undercurrent is going?" Lu Jia asked anxiously.

Zhu Liang shook his head. "The information I've read before shows that it's random, there's no pattern."

Wen Xiaxia said, "The undercurrent below gave me the feeling it was heading east. Why don't we try looking eastward first?"

"That's all we can do! Maybe there's a place to go ashore in the east."

"Captain Lou and Lin Bai are so capable, they will definitely be fine." Song Yan said loudly, comforting everyone and himself.

They'll both be fine!
