Chapter 44: A Little Shock to Mortals
Jiang Changyi scratched his ear, his face expressionless.
"I know, I know. No need to shout so loudly. I'm not deaf."
Jiang Changyi, who had lost his emotions, calmed down easily. Facing the established facts, he did not waste too much emotion - or rather, he simply had no emotions to waste.
So he quickly accepted the fact that he had lost his emotional ability and began to focus on the current tide of zombies.
No matter what kind of existence this Obatias is, at least his power is really strong, and he can possess him through armor.
"Chen Yonglong, retreat to my side!"
Hearing Jiang Changyi's familiar yet cold and unfamiliar voice, Chen Yonglong was slightly stunned, but still obediently came to Jiang Changyi's side.
He saw Jiang Changyi wearing silver armor. The clean surface of the armor even reflected brilliant spots of light because of the holy fire surrounding it. Jiang Changyi's face seemed full of divinity because of his lack of emotion.
If there really is a God in this world, perhaps he is like Jiang Changyi?
Chen Yonglong couldn't help but think so in his heart.
Wearing silver armor, Jiang Changyi could feel the surging power in his body, like a tsunami rising into the sky, which was daunting.
With such a huge force, this tide of zombies may really be stopped.
"Holy Fire...Burn!!"
Jiang Changyi followed Obatias's instructions and spread the holy fire. The red and white flames instantly enveloped all the zombies on the front line.
This holy fire is not a simple flame, but a kind of energy application. It not only burns the body, but also directly burns the undead energy in these zombies.
Zombies are undead monsters themselves, and this red and white holy fire is like sulfuric acid to them, and anyone who touches it will die.
As for humans, these sacred fires do not release any aggression, and when touched, they will only feel a little hot.
On the watchtower, the quiet Wan Xiaoyu suddenly stretched out her hand, and a powerful spiritual wind suddenly spread out in all directions.
The wind fanned the flames, and the damage range of the holy fire expanded instantly. A huge vacuum zone suddenly appeared at the gate!
"Oh my god! Xiaoyu, you are so awesome!!" Seeing this scene, Guo Beibei excitedly grabbed Wan Xiaoyu's arm and shook it left and right.
Wan Xiaoyu smiled sheepishly: "No... I just awakened a little while ago, and it was the inheritor who instructed me to help spread the fire this way."
"That's pretty awesome too!!"
Guo Beibei stretched out her arms and hugged Wan Xiaoyu, her voice choked with sobs.
"That's great... Really, it's great..."
Guo Beibei is not afraid of death, but that doesn't mean she wants to die.
The holy fire dissipated, and Jiang Changyi collapsed to the ground exhausted. The armor on his body temporarily returned to its original world because his mental strength was not enough to maintain its existence. Chu Yesheng also disappeared temporarily because of this.
In the last moment of exhaustion, Jiang Changyi controlled the holy fire to raise a holy fire defense line in front of him, stopping the zombies behind him.
But perhaps the temperature of the armor was too high, and the power of the holy fire was too overbearing, which actually burned most of Jiang Changyi's clothes, and there were red marks on his skin, which vaguely matched the shape of the armor.
Chen Yonglong quickly helped him up and subconsciously wanted to take off his coat and put it on him, but then he was surprised to find that his clothes were already in tatters.
"Brother Jiang! What should we do now? Should I lead you to retreat?"
"No." Jiang Changyi stood up with difficulty with the support of Chen Yonglong. The tingling sensation in his brain caused by the exhaustion of his mental energy made him unable to even feel the muscles in Chen Yonglong's arms.
[No? It's already this late and you're still drooling?!]
Jiang Changyi: "Let's try again. I believe in Zong Qiong. Give him some time. He will definitely find a way."
In fact, Chen Yonglong was shaken. He didn't know whether they could defend the base, but he didn't want Jiang Changyi to die.
Ma Jianyue, sword in hand, limped over to the two men. "Heh...why aren't you leaving yet? Do you really want to live and die with this base?"
One of his legs had been bitten by a zombie so deeply that the bone was visible. If he had not been an awakened being who could temporarily resist the contamination of evil spirits, he would probably have lost consciousness by now.
Wang Xin, covered in blood, walked over to him. Golden light flowed from all seven of his orifices and flowed into his wounds to heal him. "Where can you escape to? This damn world is already full of monsters. Where else can you escape to? I don't believe I can't protect this family!!"
Wang Xin almost died once. Chen Yonglong is his brother who has shared life and death with him. As long as Chen Yonglong doesn't leave, he doesn't plan to leave either.
Moreover, if humans really couldn't defend a pure land, what was the point of running away? They would be killed by monsters no matter where they fled to!
Wan Xiaoyu has already run down from the watchtower. She has awakened as a wind elementalist and is not just an ordinary awakener. Her successor is an extremely powerful elementalist who is proficient in various healing techniques.
Therefore, in addition to some wind magic, Wan Xiaoyu can also use wind healing magic.
A gust of wind of recovery blew by, and the survivors present felt from the bottom of their hearts that their injuries and physical strength were recovering bit by bit.
The healing effect finally allowed Jiang Changyi to regain most of his consciousness. He was very calm at this moment: "Everyone, Zong Qiong must be holding back his ultimate move. Let's fight for a while. If there is no response after 30 seconds, we will retreat."
In fact, the others were also unwilling to give up. They had finally found a place that could be called a survivor base, and no one wanted to give up just like that.
So everyone accepted this suggestion and began to count silently in their hearts.
The defense line built by the holy fire in the distance was slowly dissipating, and one zombie after another rushed over, stepping on the corpses of their own kind.
"five……"
Wan Xiaoyu has begun to condense wind-type speed magic in her hands.
"Four……"
Ma Jianyue raised the sword in his hand.
"three……"
Wang Xin stood beside Chen Yonglong.
"two……"
Chen Yonglong carried Jiang Changyi on his back.
"one……"
Jiang Changyi narrowed his eyes: "Retreat..."
Before the word "retreat" was uttered, an extremely terrifying roar suddenly erupted in the school!
Jiang Changyi suddenly turned around and saw a ball of light flying in the sky from afar.
Although it was called flying, the ball of light actually arrived in the blink of an eye, landing lightly and swiftly in the center of the zombie gathering.
The moment the light ball stopped, the world became quiet.
"boom!!!"
The ball of light suddenly exploded, and a dazzling circle of light spread out from the center, creating an enormous mushroom cloud on the horizon!
The light curtain and sound waves came one after another. The aftermath of such a huge explosion made Jiang Changyi scream in shock.
"Zong Qiong! Did you make a nuclear bomb?!!!"
