Chapter 224 Ice War

A not-so-loud crashing sound was heard, but it made several people's faces turn pale.

"Are there any more weapons?" Dean Ji took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He knew that everyone's superpowers were gone after a fierce battle, and now they lacked confidence in facing the many zombie beasts that were coming at them.

But in an emergency, there's no room for cowardice. Does that mean we can't resist without superpowers? Take up arms!

"Also, there's more." Xiao Li pulled out several axes from the mutant beast's corpse, "Use this."

"Everyone hold steady. Xiao Li and I will handle the front. The rest is up to you."

Dean Ji seemed to stand up steadily, but in fact his legs were weak and he could fall down in the next second.

He secretly pinched his thigh hard to steady himself. He knew very well that if he fell, the whole team would collapse. The annihilation of the entire army was a small matter, but it would be a waste if the most qualified test subject he had worked so hard to capture was not sent back.

The zombie beasts were already extremely hungry and thirsty. Without waiting for them to get close, they jumped off the tree trunks and ran towards them on the ice.

"Here they come." Dean Ji said in a deep voice.

The hearts of several people were tense as they stared at the group of villains. Sending the experimental subjects back was the only belief in their hearts!

"Dean Ji, be careful!" Xiao Li shouted loudly, raised the axe and chopped it hard, smashing the head of the zombie beast jumping in front of him.

The body that fell into the water leaked out crystal cores and instantly disappeared under the ice.

The battle horn has sounded, dozens of zombie beasts are coming on the ice, the sky and the earth are gray, hailstones as big as fists come to help, and they are madly attacking without distinguishing between friend or foe.

The rain weighed down the snowflakes, washing over the battlefield.

Ten minutes later, Dean Ji's arms were shaking uncontrollably, his feet were still firmly planted, and his eyes were somewhat dazed.

Kill one more.

Kill one more.

Some of the ice was thin and brittle, and could not withstand the trampling of the zombie beasts, which broke into pieces. The zombie beasts that fell into the water only had living people in their eyes, and tried their best to get closer.

The two people guarding the back were so tense that they madly smashed the heads of the zombie beasts that tried to climb up.

The ice block it was living on was like a small boat tossing in a storm, and the bottom was hit by the zombie beasts, making an ominous crackling sound.

What’s even more ominous is that the number of flashing red lights around is gradually increasing.

"Dean Ji!" Xiao Li was terrified to see his outstretched arm hit by hailstones, and he almost fell into the river due to the force.

The two people behind him turned their heads, and one of them was distracted and bitten on the leg by a zombie beast that took the opportunity to climb up.

"ah."

The man who was bitten gritted his teeth, struggled free, and kicked it off with force.

"What happened?" Dean Ji asked hurriedly as the darkness in front of his eyes had just disappeared and he heard his subordinates screaming.

"It's okay. It almost climbed up on me. Are you okay?"

The man shook his head slightly at his companion, indicating that he should not say anything. In this situation, he could not cause more trouble.

Dean Ji shook his head, trying his best to ignore the sharp pain in his arm, and handed the axe to his left hand. "...It's okay, at least the axe is still there."

After saying that, he continued to hammer the zombie beast to death, and there was no sign of injury at all.

Seeing that one by one their companions were injured but still fighting desperately, an uncontrollable sadness surged in their hearts. They choked with sobs and took a step forward to silently resist the attacks of most of the zombie beasts.

But they are already at the end of their strength, how many rounds can they last?

When they saw the more agile zombie beasts running out of the forest one after another, they no longer had any strength left and completely lost the will to resist.

The rapid and heavy breathing carries the helplessness and resentment of accepting reality, and the passion in the heart cannot withstand the physical loss and invisible hope.

At this moment, an unexpected situation occurred. The man who was bitten by the zombie beast suddenly foamed at the mouth and twitched all over his body. His limbs were bent in strange shapes, and his skin gradually turned gray.

"He's going to mutate!"

The companion closest to the man acted decisively and struck him with an axe, ending his suffering and throwing the body onto the ice.

"Good luck, brother."

Dean Ji watched another team member leave, shaking his body sadly.

He is over fifty years old, and the only reason he has been able to hold on until now is because of the faith in his heart.

But the cruel reality does not stop because someone dies.

"They are coming..." Xiao Li murmured.

In the reflection of his pupils, more zombie beasts pounced on him ferociously than before.

...

“Ding Dong.”

"Hello, I'm Mr. Xia, the owner of a resort hotel. I have a single-family villa for rent and would like to extend a sincere invitation to you. Please reply to indicate whether you agree or decline."

Suddenly, a young girl in a cute skirt appeared on the ice, with smiling crescent eyes. When she saw them, she raised her left foot and made a "yeah" sign.

Behind her, all the zombie beasts fell into the water like dumplings. An invisible big hand pressed down their heads and forced them under the ice, where they were carried away by the current.

The mutant beasts that were glaring at the shore seemed to have lost their target. They turned around in a daze and then ran towards the place in the forest where the sound of the smashing occurred.

Even this space is protected. The hail is bounced away when it approaches, and the raindrops fall elsewhere. It is a private area where even the wind cannot enter.

Dean Ji and the others were so shocked that they couldn't express it in words.

So this is a miracle from heaven?

They had already given up hope of death, but then things took a turn for the better and a glimmer of hope appeared!

My mentality is like riding a roller coaster between life and death. When I encounter salvation at the most desperate moment, my only reaction is that my legs go limp.

Dean Ji stood up again with the help of Xiao Li. Although his face was full of fatigue and heartache, he still remembered his mission.

"Can you come back after you go there?"

"Boss Xia" played with her hair with her slender fingers and chuckled when she heard that.

"Of course, you can come back whether you rent it or not."

“We agree,” he said.

Even if I stay in this so-called villa for a while, I can take a breath and rest, and try to adjust my mentality to bring the experimental subject back.

The girl snapped her fingers, her eyes blurred, and the next second she appeared in a space filled with white fog.

"Please wait patiently, the remaining customers are still on their way."

Boss Xia disappeared on the spot, and there were only three of them in the huge space.

Dean Ji was worried about the experimental subject, so he hurriedly turned back to look for him. He was relieved when he saw him follow in.

Only now did he truly examine the space.

The space was a cube, and they were in the middle. The white mist seemed to act as a wall, so thick that it was almost dripping with water.

No one dared to touch it.

After looking for a while and finding nothing wrong, his physical and mental strength had reached its limit, so he simply sat down to rest. The three of them sat back to back, with the experimental subject placed in front of them, within easy reach.

Xiao Li asked nervously, "Dean Ji, what kind of place is this? That white fog doesn't seem safe."

Dean Ji replied: "Since we are here, we should make the best of it and have a good rest first."

In fact, they don't need to worry too much, because they will see other customers coming in within five minutes.
