"Oh no, they're coming from the air!" The pupils of the visually enhanced individual suddenly dilated, filling the entire white of their eye.
Major General Kang made arrangements in an orderly manner.
"Attention all ability users, high altitudes!"
"Shooters, prepare! Fire at any moment!"
"Barrier ability users, seal off the area above!"
Wang Ning is an outstanding archer.
Before the apocalypse, he was a professional archer. After the apocalypse, he awakened a metal-based superpower, which allows him to create an infinite number of arrows.
He drew back his longbow, his gaze fixed on the approaching zombie.
Finally, guided by an astonishing premonition, he fired an arrow.
They quickly gathered multiple arrows and fired them at the predicted locations, attempting to block the zombies' path.
Jiang Qingwan, with her sharp ears, heard the sound of something cutting through the air and looked in the direction of the sound.
It is one arrow, leading a swarm of arrows.
Like shooting stars, they scattered across the sky, forming an encirclement, their momentum overwhelming.
Jiang Qingwan casually picked up the foremost arrow and held the tip between her fingers.
The remaining arrows were swept away with a flick of the wrist.
The arrow seemed to hit a transparent barrier, its force dissipated, and it fell vertically.
"What's going on?" Ye Qi asked with concern when he saw Jiang Qingwan suddenly stop, catching an arrow in her hand.
Jiang Qingwan looked at the arrow in her hand; it was clearly condensed by a metal-type ability user.
He calmly replied, "It's nothing. They're probably people from the base who think we're intruders."
Jiang Qingwan conjured a blank slip of paper, from which three words condensed: "One of us." She inserted it into the arrow and tossed it back.
Jiang Qingwan and Ye Qi stopped after being attacked, which naturally allowed the vision mutant to observe them. He saw the female zombie wave her hand, and all the attacks were easily neutralized.
However, he discovered an even more terrifying truth.
Even when he stopped, he still couldn't see their faces clearly!
All that could be seen was a male zombie and a female zombie. The female zombie's face was strange, as if it was covered with a special substance, making her features unclear.
The male zombie was behind the female zombie, and his face was conveniently blocked.
The vision mutant continued his desperate report: "Reporting to Major General Kang, the zombies have stopped! But strangely, I still can't see their faces clearly, I can only tell from their figures and clothing that they are a man and a woman."
"Holy shit." Wang Ning couldn't help but swear.
He also discovered something terrifying.
His arrow is returning to him at an extremely fast speed, intact!
Once observed, they were already very close to the base's barrier.
The base did not have time to mobilize more defensive forces to reinforce the direction from which the arrows were coming.
The arrow struck the carefully constructed barrier created by the base's superhumans and, unsurprisingly, pierced through it instantly.
The barrier shattered with a cracking sound, and despair crashed into everyone's hearts.
Everyone could only watch helplessly as the arrow pierced through the barrier.
My heart was in my throat, and I prayed that the arrow wouldn't hit me.
Everyone scrambled to their feet, searching for something to block their path.
Strangely enough, the arrow was aimed very high, hovering twenty meters above everyone's heads.
A gust of wind swept through the air as it passed.
I thought I could escape this crisis by lying down.
Sensing the direction the airflow was heading, most people lost their fear and turned to look at the arrow.
The arrow, however, was strangely suspended in mid-air.
It seemed to develop its own consciousness, taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, it suddenly slowed down, changed direction, and rushed straight towards Major General Kang.
Major General Kang pursed his lips, furrowed his brows, and assumed a defensive posture.
By concentrating a large amount of supernatural power in the chest and head, as long as one's vital parts are preserved, and with the help of healing supernatural powers such as light and wood, there is still a chance to start over.
He stared intently at the arrowhead, preparing to put up a desperate fight.
The arrow simply vanished before our very eyes.
It dissolves in the air, leaving nothing behind.
wrong!
A piece of paper floated down from the sky.
It seems harmless, light and airy.
It fell to the ground, and no one dared to pick it up.
The scene left everyone disoriented and, under immense pressure, began to doubt everything.
They felt this was no ordinary note.
It might be a biohazard note containing a concentrated zombie virus; touching it will instantly turn you into a zombie.
It could also be a bomb; it might explode if you touch it, or it might explode even if you don't touch it.
Advanced zombies possess intelligence and can control other zombies to attack cities, so they naturally have other ideas.
Therefore, this is definitely not a simple note.
Major General Kang casually picked up the iron rod beside him and unfolded the note.
The only words visible were: "Our own people".
Those around who could see the contents of the note began to discuss it amongst themselves.
"Our own people? What do you mean, 'our own people'?"
"A trap! This must be a trap! They're trying to trick us into lowering our guard."
"They do seem to be on our side; that arrow just now didn't cause us any harm."
"So, there must be a bigger conspiracy involved!"
General Kang's head was spinning from the noise of those around him. He raised his hand to gesture for everyone to stop. "Stop—"
Major General Kang was indeed a person who could rise to the top of the base, and he had more courage than the average person.
He felt that these people must be true allies.
A man and a woman, both from the same community, somewhat resembled Jiang Qingwan and Ye Qi.
"Old Wu, take another look. Can you see their faces clearly now?" Major General Kang said, turning to the person with the visual mutation.
Old Wu nodded and looked into the distance again.
"I still can't see the woman's face clearly..." Old Wu looked closely, smacked his lips, and then looked at the man behind him. This time he could see half of his profile.
Short, glossy black hair, a high nose bridge, perfect bone structure, and fair skin.
The more I look at it, the more familiar it seems.
"This man... doesn't he look a bit like our base's researcher Ye?" Old Wu squinted, looked him over, and said uncertainly.
Major General Kang arrived at the expected answer, patted Old Wu on the shoulder, and said with a sigh of relief, "Then it must be right."
"The air defenses can be temporarily withdrawn; they're all on our side. As for the zombies trying to climb the wall, let's take them all down in one fell swoop!" Major General Kang announced this exciting news to everyone through a megaphone.
"Is that Sister Jiang!" Gu Ningyue squeezed through the crowd, poking her head out like a kitten waiting for its owner to return home, her eyes sparkling.
"It's pretty close to the truth." Major General Kang nodded, looking at Gu Ningyue with a mixture of love and resentment.
I really don't know where Jiang Qingwan found such a powerful person. This little girl is almost able to hold off all the zombies from one direction.
Thanks to her, the other ability users at the base were able to take turns resting.
It's a pity that he only has eyes for Sister Jiang!
Fortunately, Sister Jiang's team is currently at our Youlong Base.
Now that they've returned alive, they need to reassess how the base people have treated them.
With this kind of power, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he could control everything.
I'll report this to the leadership soon and hold a meeting behind Jiang Qingwan and her group's backs.
Tell the others: You absolutely cannot offend Jiang Qingwan, Ye Qi, or Gu Ningyue.
It's essential to cultivate good relationships.
