Chuan Liu has always believed: “Chaos is not an abyss, chaos is a ladder.”
Therefore, the magician Chuan Liu chose the criminal exile island – “Paradise Island.”
On this islan...
The first car: "Ace of Spades" Qiao Qiao, "King of Spades" Hua Tianba, "Queen of Spades" Tang Qing.
The second car: "Ace of Hearts" Huang Chunling, "Queen of Hearts" Shi Wenle, "Jack of Hearts" Wei Pingchang.
The third car: "Ace of Diamonds" Zhou Zheng, "King of Diamonds" Liu Xingxing, "Queen of Diamonds" Jin Ruge, "Ten of Spades" Wu Fangming, "Eight of Spades" Zhui Ming.
The fourth car: "Diamond 6" Wuwangqu Qianlian, "Heart 10" Susan.
Meanwhile, Chuanliu, standing on the 13th floor, was also silently watching this scene.
On the top floor, Wu Lide had his men bring out a megaphone connected to the main city's loudspeakers, and shouted down into the wind and rain:
"I am deeply honored that you have traveled such a long distance to come. However, I wonder what we have done wrong to warrant this confrontation between us?"
The sound, amplified several times over, reached everyone's ears and echoed throughout the low-lying areas of Plum Blossom City.
Qiaoqiao took out the speaker they had installed in the car, held the walkie-talkie in one hand, and said in her authoritative voice, "Wu Lide, things have come to this, stop pretending to be righteous! You created the zombies, provoked conflicts, and started the war. If we hadn't reacted in time, we probably would have already fallen into your trap! Today we are here to wipe out this cancer of Paradise Island!"
Wu Lide angrily retorted, "Sister Qiao Qiao, don't spout nonsense. You need to be responsible for your words. Do you have any evidence for what you're saying? The appearance of the corpses isn't a recent phenomenon; why are you blaming it all on my people?"
At this moment, Wu Lide saw Qian Chuan take the walkie-talkie, look up at him, and say, "Boss Wu, long time no see. I think you've forgotten what the Wuwang District's main business is, haven't you? I have all the records here of your collusion with rebels, the purchase of large numbers of live people, and the data records of your research on heroin and various other drugs. Do you really need me to read them to you one by one?"
Wu Lide's expression immediately became unnatural. He looked at Yan Zhengkang and the other two beside him, and all three of them frowned and shook their heads, indicating that they were unaware of the leak of the information.
Of course, due to the weather and altitude, people on the ground could not see the expressions of those on the rooftop.
But this brief silence was enough to fuel the resentment of the residents who had suffered at the hands of the zombies.
Wu Lide said in a voice he had tried his best to adjust, "We, the people of Plum Blossom City, have always acted uprightly and stood tall. Today, you are forcing us to resist by imposing such unfounded charges on us! We, the people of Plum Blossom City, will not surrender!"
Qiaoqiao took back the walkie-talkie and snorted coldly, "Wu Lide, since you have no intention of repenting, don't blame us for being impolite! We'll have a good talk after we catch you!"
With that, she addressed all the warriors before her in a resounding voice: "Warriors of Paradise Island, heed my command!"
"exist!"
A deafening echo pierced the sky, seemingly shattering the clouds. The sky was dyed crimson by the flames of war, and the earth trembled with an indomitable battle song.
All the warriors were filled with excitement, their eyes fixed on the top of the "golden diamond." Thousands of gazes, like a thousand knives, were directed at the four people on the top floor.
Qiao Qiao raised her sword high, its tip pointing directly at the enemy ranks. Her voice, like thunder, resounded through the sky and pierced the chests of every warrior: "Let's conquer Plum Blossom City together! Take that traitor's head! Restore peace to Paradise Island!"
Her voice was passionate and inspiring, seemingly possessing a magical power that could uplift the spirits of all the soldiers present.
At this inspiring call to action, the soldiers' blood seemed to boil instantly. Their eyes burned with fierce fighting spirit, and the hot blood in their chests surged like an unstoppable river.
"Restore peace to Paradise Island!"
"Restore peace to Paradise Island!"
"Restore peace to Paradise Island!"
The crowd shouted, their rhythmic and powerful cries captivating, causing the guards within the Plum Blossom City's safe zone to exchange bewildered glances.
Wu Lide was not to be outdone, and his voice echoed throughout the city.
"Soldiers of Plum Blossom City! Defend the main city of Plum Blossom! Do not let these wolves invade our last home!"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than someone in the crowd shouted, "Kill!"
Immediately afterwards, everyone shouted in unison: "Kill—"
Like unleashed floods and ferocious beasts, the two armies suddenly erupted in earth-shattering shouts. When the two armies finally clashed through the sturdy fence, the entire battlefield seemed to be ignited.
The cold, sharp blades of weapons gleamed in the rain, like a cascading silver river. Spears stood like a forest, crisscrossing each other, each clash accompanied by the roar of metal and the spray of sparks.
In addition, those outside the fence must constantly be wary of attacks from the zombies.
Occasionally, a zombie would suddenly rush up, screaming wildly, while the soldiers on the perimeter were responsible for clearing it out.
In the midst of this chaos, the soldiers' figures were like fallen leaves in a storm, falling one after another, only to rise again one after another.
Wu Fangming organized the battle at the forefront of the battlefield while observing the enemy's offensive and defensive measures.
He suddenly realized that although the soldiers inside the main city attacked without any strategy and their wounds were not to vital points, each strike was fatal.
Sensing something was wrong, he immediately bent down to check on a soldier who had just fallen to the ground.
The soldier, though stabbed in the arm, was already dead. He was foaming at the mouth and his lips were turning blue.
It's poisoning!
Wu Fangming immediately realized the soldier's symptoms. He coldly looked at the enemy in front of him, turned around to dodge the enemy's sneak attack, and then said to the soldiers around him, "Their weapons are poisoned! Everyone, retreat!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately stepped back a few paces and distanced themselves from the other side of the railing.
While dealing with the attacks from inside the fence, Wu Fangming said to a soldier behind him, "Quickly back to headquarters! Tell them that the weapons of these people inside are poisoned, and have them immediately send a batch of long weapons and long-range crossbows!"
"yes!"
The soldiers received the order and immediately departed.
Meanwhile, the soldiers on the perimeter, under Wu Fangming's organization, became more cautious in dealing with the attacks.
The fighting continued, gradually extending from noon into the afternoon, and then into the evening.
After Wu Fangming informed the front lines of the situation, supplies were immediately provided from the rear, including long weapons, bows and arrows, and crossbow bolts.
This led to a dramatic change in the course of the war.
The whistling of crossbows cut through the night sky, followed by screams of agony. Inside the main city, a ring of shields was quickly erected, temporarily shielding them from the onslaught.
Those hiding behind shields gasped for breath, desperate for fresh air, but only the stench of blood filled their nostrils. Most of them, accustomed to a life of luxury in the main city, were on the verge of collapse.
Yan Zhengkang and Sun Fan remained to oversee the main city of Meihua.
As the situation became increasingly dire, the two finally couldn't help but frown.
