Chapter 60: The Line of Defense is Broken
A triple wall of fire suddenly rose up, and the zombies that rushed into it were like barbecued meat falling on a grill pan. Along with the crackling sound of burning, the sickening smell of meat spread.
This move probably killed nearly ten zombies.
But compared to the endless tide of zombies, this number is really a drop in the bucket.
Before the fire wall was completely extinguished, a large number of zombies rushed up with roars.
"Don't let them trigger the trap!"
The middle-aged man shouted, and two magic circles appeared in his hands, and all kinds of magic poured out.
In order to prevent Chiyou from targeting them, the traps were of very high specifications and could easily resist these zombies, but the middle-aged man did not dare to let the zombies consume the number of traps.
Don't forget, these zombies are not a real threat.
The real threat is in the high-rise buildings nearby, watching them all the time. As long as the zombies consume a hole in the trap, the real death will come.
Never allow the zombies to break through to the vicinity of the trap.
However, even if the zombies are kept out temporarily, will the crisis really be resolved?
The answer is no.
Middle-aged people know it, and so do others.
Spirit value will be consumed.
Faced with an endless stream of zombie armies, they have to use magic constantly.
It won't be long before they will be unable to use magic due to their depleted mental energy, and then the zombies will swarm over them.
The hunt was clearly a failure.
The encirclement and hunting plan had already failed when they failed to kill Chiyou in the first time and instead chopped down several shield warriors by Chiyou.
But now is not the time to dwell on such matters. Instead, we should focus all our attention on how to survive.
"In another forty minutes, it will be Dark Sky. Although the zombies' attributes will be upgraded and our vision will be obstructed, his vision will be suppressed accordingly. That will be our chance to escape."
The middle-aged man cast two more spells to destroy the zombies that were approaching, and spoke in a hurried tone.
"But the question is, will that lunatic allow us to hold on until dark?" The cheongsam woman also cast magic spells one after another, and the patterns on her legs glowed brightly, but compared to before, the golden light gradually faded and began to turn white.
Seeing this scene, the cheongsam woman couldn't help but sigh. This was a dark gold-level equipment she had obtained, which could store spiritual energy and provide additional damage to magic, but it couldn't be used all the time. When the light turned completely white, the additional attributes of the equipment would become invalid, and it would take a long time to recharge it. By then, her combat power would drop by more than one level.
This cannot go on any longer.
The cheongsam woman knew very well that the mental strength of the crowd would never be able to sustain until the night fell. Even if they could barely hold on, Chiyou would definitely cooperate with the zombies to break out before the night fell.
By then, who can survive will depend on who has more remaining strength.
Indeed, even in their prime, it would be difficult for them to survive Chiyou's knife.
Chiyou, who had just been cursed by the voodoo doll, was able to kill them with ease, let alone after the curse wore off.
But they didn't want to retain the strength to kill Chiyou.
It's the power that can drag others down.
It's like there is a beast chasing them from behind. They don't need to outrun the beast, they just need to outrun their companions. Or breaking their companions' legs and making them scapegoats is also enough.
We are not really a team.
Since the operation to encircle and suppress Chiyou has failed, there is no need for the team to exist anymore. The key is to survive.
The cheongsam woman winked at the people next to her.
A few of them nodded slightly, gradually reducing the frequency of using magic, pretending to be lacking in magic power.
This scene happened to many people in the team at the same time.
Few people are willing to risk their lives for strangers, let alone those enemies who are not even as good as strangers and had grudges against them before.
"These idiots."
The middle-aged man couldn't help but curse in his heart.
The enemies have been at odds with each other for a long time, and everyone has a rough idea of how powerful each person is.
It is true that it is difficult for people to hold on until night falls, but they will never look like they are about to run out of energy now.
Do you really think he can't see what these people are planning?
Isn't it just to conserve your strength and increase your chances of survival when that lunatic attacks?
But what could he say?
As the nominal commander, he organized a failed encirclement and suppression operation. If the threat was not in front of him, everyone would have come to trouble him long ago, even though every step of the plan had been approved by everyone.
If he dares to prevent everyone from retaining their strength now, the already fragile alliance will immediately fall apart.
Helplessly, he could only give his teammates the same look.
In a moment, life or death will depend on how you handle it.
"That's why it is said that a fragile alliance or organization is worse than being alone."
Chiyou was standing by the window, and everyone's behavior of holding back naturally did not escape his eyes.
A trustworthy teammate can bring about a power that is greater than the sum of one plus one.
But if it is a teammate who may betray you at any time, the power may appear to be adding, but sometimes it is subtracting.
Chi You took back the Elf King Bow that he had just equipped to his clone. He had originally planned to wait until these people's resistance weakened a little and then shoot them one by one with the Elf King Bow.
Now it seems that there is no need for this. In ten minutes at most, these people's fragile defenses will collapse under the attack of the zombies.
Chiyou focused his attention on three people.
A middle-aged man, a woman in cheongsam, and a wizard who was completely covered in a black robe and it was unclear whether he was a man or a woman.
Among them, we pay attention to the cheongsam woman and the black robe man because they are well-equipped.
Chiyou just needs high spirit equipment.
The earrings and another ring were located relatively far away, and Chiyou did not want to make them his next collection target.
The equipment of these two people can be used to fill the gaps.
As for the middle-aged man, Chiyou always felt that he looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
It seems that he has seen it when it was following the protagonist in soul form, but they probably didn't have much interaction, otherwise he wouldn't have left such a deep impression on him.
Chiyou's real body retreated into the room, while his clone stayed by the window, holding a Miao Dao in his hand and staring at everyone.
Time passed by little by little.
As people stopped intentionally, the zombies continued to attack and triggered traps one after another.
Finally, with the triggering of the last trap on the main road, everyone stopped at the same time, attached various buffs to themselves and their teammates, and quickly evacuated from the main street.
At the same time, a shadow fell from the sky at high speed.
