Chapter 248 Sandworm
The surroundings gradually changed their appearance and began to turn into the same skin color as the green shadow flying above. The speed was not fast, but changes were taking place that were visible to the naked eye.
The man's face was grim and he was in great pain. He stroked his injured left hand.
The subordinate who had just been caught and injured gradually evolved into a green shadow like the one above.
In front of everyone's horrified eyes, green wings grew all over his back, and then his face shape began to become strange, turning into a monster-like face.
Not only him, but also those who fell to the ground and died, or were scratched, all began to evolve into the same kind as Green Shadow without exception.
Jin Mohan saw it, his eyelids slightly raised, and his voice was cold, "Get rid of it! Cut off the head immediately."
Jiang Zixuan watched all this with a calm expression. Even though she had experienced it before, it was still not easy.
Everything she had experienced was constantly changing here.
No reason, I just came in and saw it.
The scenes kept changing, and Jiang Zixuan's face was full of memories.
Groups of green shadows are coming this way.
Bright colors flashed across the sky, illuminating the ground with a ray of light.
The same sky full of green light gives people a sense of horror. They rush over in groups, and the unconcealable sense of oppression makes people shiver when watching.
At this moment, the entire base sounded the alarm and the air defense alarm bell.
The shrill, panic-inducing sound spread throughout the base.
Panic suddenly filled the eyes of many people. As soon as they stepped out of the door, they saw dense green shadows circling in the sky.
Even though we don't know what it is, the human body still instinctively produces fear.
Humans cannot fly up to a twenty-meter-high city wall by their own abilities, unless they are a psychic like Leng Mo who can control the wind element with ease.
There was a staircase on the city wall leading directly to a small stronghold on top. Jiang Zixuan ran up and saw that everyone in the stronghold was fighting back.
She hid behind the battlements and saw large groups of zombies coming through the wind and sand from the west, and were soon blown into pieces by mortars on the city walls.
There were many zombie birds circling in the sky, but they were also shot down by guns and fell into the zombie group.
Leng Mo and Jing Chen were discussing countermeasures in front, Jiang Zixuan walked over and asked, "Why did so many zombies suddenly appear?"
There is a lookout point on the military tower, which keeps an eye on any unusual movements in all directions, but this time no warning was given in advance.
Jing Chen said, "We didn't detect it. We suspect that some earth-type zombies with special abilities dug a tunnel and let the zombies pass through underground to cover their tracks."
Just like before in Haizhou, Shan Changcheng also dug a tunnel to allow everyone to avoid the artillery fire of the God-Slaying Base and directly enter the inner city of Haizhou.
Jiang Zixuan suddenly felt a headache, "Nowadays, high-level zombies are becoming more and more strategic."
Jing Chen smiled and said, "What they can think of, we humans can think of as well. They can only dig a few kilometers outside the base at most, and they can't attack the base in the same way."
The ground beneath the Leia base is made of hard rock, and soil detectors are installed, so that once foreign enemy intrusion is detected, it can be cleared out as soon as possible.
The number of zombies that attacked was not large, only a few thousand, but most of them were high-level zombies.
High-level zombies have stronger defense and regeneration capabilities. Unlike ordinary zombies, once they are blown into pieces by artillery shells, there is no possibility of healing.
Jingchen commanded the armed forces to fight back, while Jiang Zixuan and Leng Mo watched from the side.
This group of zombies were caught in a continuous hail of bullets a mile or two away, and most of them were shattered, but some high-level zombies used ordinary zombies as a human wall and continued to approach the city wall.
No matter how thick and strong the city walls are, they cannot withstand being destroyed by high-level zombies.
So before they got close, Jingchen ordered the fourth generation of psychics to attack together to block the steps of the high-level zombies.
Jiang Zixuan was standing there doing nothing, so she went to help. However, her ice cone melted under the scorching sun before it flew a hundred meters away.
The main reason is that the weather is too hot. Her ice-based abilities seem to be affected by the climate, and their strength has been greatly reduced.
Seeing the icicle gradually disappear in the sunlight, Jiang Zixuan was stunned and stared at her hands in amazement.
Fortunately, Leng Mo was considerate enough not to laugh at her. Instead, he comforted her, "In winter, Madam's special ability will come in very handy."
Jiang Zixuan said weakly, "It's OK in the summer. I can make shaved ice anytime and anywhere."
Isn't her ability too restricted by the weather? Jingchen's water element is from the same source as her ice element, so isn't it also restricted in the summer?
And Ke Zhenshan, can he still use his fire-based abilities in the snow and ice?
Although natural abilities are powerful enough, they do have many limitations, making it impossible to release them at any time and at any place as one pleases.
Jiang Zixuan no longer forced to fight. Instead, she took out the submachine gun that had just been stored in the space and lay in front of the parapet to shoot at the zombies.
There is a desert on the west side of the base, and the zombies came from the desert.
After experiencing the scorching sun and dry environment, even zombies will become dehydrated and shrunken, their bodies will be torn and tattered, with their flesh and blood almost completely shriveled and sunken, leaving only a layer of skin attached to the bones.
Even at this point, the zombies are still able to move, using their last bit of strength to attack humans.
The submachine gun was too weak, so Jiang Zixuan switched to a machine gun, set it up and continued shooting.
Leng Mo used a telescope to observe how many zombies there were in the distance, and suddenly uttered a questioning "hmm".
Jiang Zixuan had sharp ears, and after hearing it, she asked, "Is there something going on?"
He nodded coldly without any explanation and just threw the telescope to Jingchen.
Jingchen took a look through the telescope and immediately laughed from the bottom of his heart, "Wow, it's getting more and more fantastic, isn't it?"
Jiang Zixuan didn't understand, so she took out the space telescope and took a look.
Through the telescope, in the desert a few miles away, layers of wind and sand swept across the sky, like a violent sandstorm, with mud and sand covering the sky and the sun.
The sandstorm was caused by creatures that looked like rectums.
Their bodies are thicker, longer and stronger than trains. They are tumbling upright in the desert and heading straight for the base.
Sandworms are reptiles that grow on mudflats in coastal areas. They can devour sand and gravel and look similar to sausages.
If they weren't so big and had a high chance of being infected with the zombie virus, Jiang Zixuan would have wanted to capture all of them and bring them to the base as delicious food.
Sandworms are extremely rich in protein and in some areas are even regarded as precious seafood like abalone and shark fin.
This thing is hard to come by, and it looks so fresh and happy. It would be a shame not to eat it.
Jingchen also quickly identified the type of the giant creature through the telescope and said in admiration, "Sandworms are running in the desert. This is simply a spectacle."
Jiang Zixuan said, "It's not particularly strange. There is an ocean in front of our base and a desert on the right. The sandworms ran from the ocean to the desert... The distance is not too far."
It is not outrageous that sandworms appear in the desert. What is outrageous is that they can actually grow as big as a train, causing the entire desert area to be filled with flying sand and sandstorms to roll in.
Jingchen contacted the military tower and dispatched fighter planes to destroy the sandworms first.
If he guessed correctly, it was these sandworms that dug through the desert and allowed the zombies to pass through the Gobi tunnels to avoid detection by reconnaissance aircraft.
