Chapter 38 Team Battle II
Like a black rain falling from the sky!
The falling zombies peeled off like layers of rust, revealing a bright red-gold skyline in the distance.
Everyone was so shocked by this scene that their scalps went numb.
Below, dense metal spikes pierced through the zombies' bodies and heads, instantly reducing the number of zombies by over 40%, temporarily immobilizing the remaining ones.
A strategic group attack more powerful than an artillery shell.
Whether on the high walls or on the battlefield, everyone paused for a moment at the same time—
It turns out that this is the true strength of the Super 4S level.
A cold voice suddenly reminded: "Concentrate."
Yan Chuanbai didn't even turn around, quickly controlling the situation. His ice powers and bullets were clearing the battlefield unaffected.
The people around quickly regained their attention.
The overall situation has not changed much.
In the battlefield below, not counting Gong Lianyu who was still cooling down, only one main combat force was taken away - leaving behind all the 3S combat systems, minimizing the impact.
Gong Lianyu doesn't need precise control, he just needs to squeeze his fool skills to the limit.
Metal spikes protruded one after another, and the number of zombies continued to decrease.
Above, Qi He stood tall at the top of the command tower.
He took a deep breath, then put one hand on the earphone, his fingertips trembling slightly. "We can send the fighter jets from headquarters over."
As soon as he finished speaking, fighter jets from above the high wall came to support.
At this moment, Qi He suddenly felt his mental strength, which had been on the verge of exhaustion, recover rapidly. He turned around and saw the girl with long black hair on the helicopter on the left, reaching out to him:
"It has been fully amplified. You and Xiao Gong can continue to fight on the battlefield."
Qi He nodded, then jumped down——
The fighter jets arrived in the sky behind in an instant.
Guan Shangjun's voice came from the headset: "The fighter planes at headquarters said that you should stay away from the bombing area."
The two helicopters have withdrawn.
Qi He was falling in mid-air, the gust of wind blasting into his ears. As he opened his mouth, two voices almost overlapped:
"Go ahead and blow it up."
"Go ahead and blow it up."
With a plop, Qi He fell to the ground.
The fighter planes behind him carried out his orders without hesitation, unleashing a fierce barrage of fire: BOOM!!!
Amidst the raging flames, the aftermath of the explosion struck—
When he rushed behind Qi He, he suddenly stopped.
The extreme low temperature creates an invisible barrier, the kinetic energy of molecules drops sharply, and the energy of the shock wave is completely dissipated.
Yan Chuanbai's calm figure emerged from the tide of mutation. While controlling his second-evolved superpowers, he directed the troops and cleared the battlefield.
Qi He returned to his side.
Yan Chuanbai glanced at his pale face: "...Are you okay?"
Qi He casually tore a mutant vine into pieces, unwilling to be outdone: "I have plenty of strength and means."
“…”
Yan Chuanbai's brows seemed to relax, then he retracted his eyes.
Qi He returned to the ground battlefield.
He left Gong Lianyu behind to clean up the fish that had escaped the fire. The large-scale barbs almost drained his mental strength, so Gong Lianyu switched to a pistol.
Bang! Bang! Sounds rang out one after another, attacking with precision point to point.
The battle situation was brought back to the time before the flying zombie tide attacked.
The pressure was relieved at once, and Qi He narrowed his eyes.
...It's still not enough.
He scanned the battlefield, finally landing on the S-rank tank. "Half" of his combat power had been taken away from the battlefield, and he had to make up for it elsewhere. The opponent's ability was a body transformation, its surface covered in rock layers...
Qi He distracted himself and called out to him, "Shield."
The S-class tank reacted: "Hmm?"
Qi He kept moving his hands, "Can your body transformation cover your entire arms?"
A rock formation unfolded, and the other party demonstrated: "Yes."
Qi He took a quick glance and said, "Ice and metal abilities will enhance his arms."
The S-class tank and Xi Moqing were both stunned: This was an unimaginable path...
In that instant, Yan Chuanbai's ice ability had already covered it. Not afraid of frostbite through the rock layer, the sharp ice spikes extended a meter long.
Soon, metal spikes followed on the other side.
The S-level tank was stunned:...What the hell?
He swung his arms! Bullets were fired, and the sharp blade cut off the zombies and mutants that were attacking nearby.
Qi He retracted his gaze and said to the system: "Look, a tank can also be used in close combat."
system:【……】
After a moment, it adjusted its mindset and felt a little relieved: [You, who were abnormal, are now much more normal.]
Qi He: “…”
-
After more than forty minutes of fighting.
The zombie tide on the ground has been almost completely wiped out, and the only ones left are the mutants hiding underground.
The surrounding offensive and progress slowed down, as if they were consuming each other.
Qi He stood in the middle of the field and said into the headset, "Sir, how many mutants are left?"
"The distribution is uneven, with only about 10% of the entire battlefield remaining."
10%.
He estimated his remaining strength.
Then, Qi He looked up and said to the front: "Prepare to get on the helicopter and return to the base."
Everyone in front of him was stunned:?
Gong Lianyu asked cautiously: "...You can't do it anymore?"
A gaze fell upon him, warm and gentle, and he subconsciously shuddered. Qi He withdrew his gaze and spoke into the headset, "Prepare the helicopter to descend. The psychics from headquarters and Colonel Xi will take the helicopters at Base I. The rest will take the helicopters at Base II."
Everyone was puzzled, but no one questioned it anymore.
The helicopter landed quickly.
When Yan Chuanbai faced the amplified mutant from Base II, he suddenly noticed something and looked over:
"You really get the most out of everyone."
Gong Lianyu, who was about to board the plane, became alert: Huh?
Qi He didn't explain. He climbed up the ladder with one hand and jumped into the helicopter. As Yan Chuanbai followed him onto the plane, he gave new instructions to the two helicopters:
"Line up left and right, and fly all the way back to headquarters from the rear battlefield."
"Gong Lianyu copied the fire-type superpowers, and the superpower amplification was concentrated on the helicopter at Base II. Lieutenant Colonel and Gong Lianyu spread the fire-type superpowers across the entire battlefield along the way—"
"Requesting that headquarters suspend the fire attack."
A series of commands were issued and the attack on the high wall was paused.
The two helicopters returned to the sky and hovered side by side.
Qi He glanced at the long-haired girl beside him and called out the name on her ID card: "Shu Ling, please give the three of us a full power boost."
Shu Ling seemed to understand, and he stretched his mental strength to the limit, his eyes gleaming with a divine light: "Okay."
The entire battlefield fell silent.
All that was left were piles of zombie remains and mutants writhing underground.
Qi He's eyes were calm, and he said, "Attack."
Two helicopters roared out—
A line of fire stretched across the battlefields, burning all the way from the rear. Gong Lianyu's amplified ability rivaled the original's power. Simultaneously, an extremely cold temperature enveloped the entire underground layer.
Flames rose from below.
A hint of red gold was reflected in Qi He's eyes, and his mental strength was fully mobilized with extreme amplification.
Then he dropped one hand in front of his eyes and clenched it tightly.
Boom! Boom! Boom—!!!
A series of explosions followed the helicopter all the way, like firecrackers ending a battle.
Fly back to the headquarters base with victory resounding through the sky.
-
A tough battle is finally over.
Military personnel gradually evacuated the high walls and cleaned up the battlefield. The helicopter landed at the base, and everyone disembarked, still a bit dazed by the end of it.
Went home and won.
Qi He jumped to the ground, smoothed his slightly wet hair, revealing his clear and eye-catching eyebrows.
Everyone's eyes turned to him.
Guan Shangchun's cheeks flushed, his eyes flashing: "Qi Qi, you are really amazing."
Qi He was used to it and nodded: "No need to say more."
Everyone: “…”
Yan Chuanbai lowered his eyes, not wanting to smile.
His broad shoulders almost covered Qi He's back, as if he was marking his territory. Gong Lianyu and Shu Ling looked over at him.
This subtle undercurrent did not last long.
In front, Zhong Panqing was walking towards them quickly.
He was still very excited. He first stopped in front of Yan Chuanbai and patted his shoulders and arms twice: "Hello! Chuanbai, long time no see." Then he turned to Qi He, "Qi He, nice to meet you."
He shook hands with Qi He and called the others: "You've all worked hard. Let's go to the headquarters first."
The helicopter also needs routine maintenance and refueling.
The group went to the headquarters first.
Once inside, the room is practical and simple.
General Gong and several military officers were waiting inside. Behind them were communication equipment, and in front of them was a large table covered with strategic deployments.
As they entered, General Gong greeted them: "Thank you for your hard work!"
Gong Lianyu quietly took a step back and hid behind Xi Moqing.
Qi He glanced sideways: ...
The Gong family's family relationships are indeed well-deserved.
General Gong expressed his condolences to everyone and then returned to the front.
He gave a brief summary, then praised with satisfaction, "On behalf of the headquarters base, I express my sincerest gratitude to you. Especially Bases I and II who came to support, and the two psychics who dared to rush to the front lines."
Shu Ling shook her head: "It's nothing."
Guan Shangchun smiled slightly: "I didn't dare to do it before, but thanks to Qi...Qi He's encouragement."
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Qi He.
Yan Chuanbai couldn't help but sneered on the spot: "Huh."
The sneer was not concealed, and General Gong looked over.
Guan Shangchun met the former's gaze: "What's the problem?"
He didn't hide his hostility at all. Qi He on the battlefield was simply too charming. He was so perceptive that he felt like everyone had glanced at Qi He five, six, seven, or eight times along the way.
——Although it may not be what they meant, there is no doubt that no one can resist this attraction.
He said: "I never hesitate to praise Qi Qi's charm."
Yan Chuanbai was stunned by his bluntness. Then, he also raised his lower lip and said, "It's obvious to everyone, so there's no need to say more."
“…”
Qi He was already used to the two of them not getting along, and was startled by Yan Chuanbai's words.
"System, is Yan Chuanbai praising me?"
The system is rotten: [I don’t understand Simihe. 】
Not only Qi He was shocked, but everyone else was also shocked: Yan Chuanbai's dog spit out ivory from its mouth???
Gong Lianyu understood everything, but the fire-type 3S next to him looked at the man twice more.
Admiral Gong coughed lightly and continued, "Qi He's excellence is indeed obvious to all." He paused for a few seconds and sighed, "But it also proves that Base I's combat power is indeed excessive."
Qi He's gaze fell over: It seems that General Gong still wants to take him over.
After a few seconds of silence, Yan Chuanbai suddenly said casually, "In fact, the headquarters' combat power is sufficient, but there is not enough time to prepare, so the response seems hasty."
General Gong's heart moved: Indeed, if there is an early warning...
Speaking of early warning…
He slowly shifted his gaze to Guan Shangchun.
Guan Shangchun looked up as if he had some feeling:?
Admiral Gong also recognized his combat capabilities through the headset this time. At this moment, he was also sincere: "Sir, are you willing to come to headquarters?"
Guan Shangchun was stunned for a moment and subconsciously glanced at Qi He.
This did not escape General Gong's eyes.
Thinking of the tit-for-tat confrontation just now, he understood and sighed in his heart: Qi He's super 4S-level mental strength, decisive skills, keen judgment, and the ability to coordinate and use his supernatural powers to the extreme -
It is indeed enough to attract any good follower.
He looked at the hesitant Guan Shangchun and said, "Don't rush to reply. I'll be waiting for you until the helicopter is repaired."
"……yes."
-
The group left the headquarters.
There was a waiting room next to it, where Gong Lianyu and the others went to rest. Qi He was walking down the corridor when he heard someone calling him from behind: "Qi Qi."
He stopped and saw that it was Guan Shangchun.
Yan Chuanbai, walking nearby, also stopped. He saw Guan Shangchun's hesitant gaze and guessed what he was about to say. He held his breath for a few seconds, then bent his hand slightly at his side.
Then, as if making a decision, he said, "You guys chat, I'll go over first."
After saying that, he turned and left.
He has already given it a push, so he shouldn't interfere with the remaining decision-making part.
Wait until the footsteps disappear around the corner of the corridor.
Qi He looked at Guan Shangchun: "What's wrong?"
Guan Shangchun pursed his lips and looked straight at him: "What do you think about going to the headquarters...Qi Qi?"
Qi He thought carefully for him: "Guan Shang, haven't you always wanted to go to the front line? The resources and opportunities at headquarters are far greater than those at Base I. If you want to become stronger, you can go."
After he finished speaking, there was silence for several seconds.
Guan Shangchun looked at him for a long moment. Finally, as if confirming something, he exhaled slowly, "...Well, let me think about it."
"I'll go and give the reply once I've thought it over."
After he finished speaking, he turned and walked in another direction.
…
Guan Shangchun left, and Qi He also went to the reception room.
The three bases are gathered together.
Yan Chuanbai was standing alone in a corner. Qi He took a look at him and walked towards him.
Yan Chuanbai looked behind him for a second, then back at him, asking casually, "What do you mean?"
Qi He said, "My superiors asked for my opinion. It would certainly be good for him to go to headquarters."
"…You suggest he go to headquarters?"
The tail note seems to be rising a bit.
Qi He shook his head. "I just expressed my thoughts. It's his own decision. He said he needs to think about it again."
Yan Chuanbai looked at him carefully for a moment, and the corners of his mouth curved up: "Hmm."
The two of them were standing here.
The 3S-level Fire Element warrior from headquarters suddenly walked over. He stopped in front of Qi He, looked at him for a few seconds, and then took out his communicator: "My name is Le Yunyu, can I add a line?"
Yan Chuanbai frowned and stared at him.
Le Yunyu was communicating with Qi He. When he noticed the gaze, he looked up and met Yan Chuanbai's gloomy gaze: "..."
He smiled and explained: "I'm not what you want-"
Qi He looked up, "?"
Yan Chuanbai's eyes darkened slightly. Le Yunyu realized something and changed the subject, "...You can add it if you want." Then he added Qi He with a "beep": "I admire you very much. Let's communicate more in the future."
Qi He glanced at him: He was so arrogant in front of Yan Chuanbai.
But he appreciates himself, which shows that he has a good eye for talent.
Qi He put the communicator in his pocket and said, "No problem."
Not long after Le Yunyu left, the helicopter was inspected and repaired.
Those from base II left first.
Guan Shangchun had not returned yet. After Yan Chuanbai confirmed with You Tianxing that everything was fine at the base, the two of them did not rush Guan Shangchun and waited in the living room for a while.
About ten minutes later, footsteps were heard.
A figure appeared at the door of the reception room.
Guan Shangjun is back, wearing an S-class military uniform that belongs exclusively to the headquarters.
Qi He seemed to have sensed something and stood up and walked away.
When he arrived, Guan Shangchun didn't say anything for a few seconds.
The look he gave me was firm, bright, and a little sad. He seemed to be about to cry, but his tone was steady:
"I'm not going back."
Qi He glanced back and said, "Take care, sir."
Guan Shangchun pursed his lips and turned around: "You guys should hurry back to the base."
As the figure walked away, Qi He could sense his sadness: after being together for so long, he must be reluctant to leave. He was about to say something when Guan Shangchun stopped and turned back.
A pair of bright eyes appeared under the military cap and looked at him:
"Qi Qi, I will become stronger."
"good."
Qi He felt that Guanshang seemed to be a little different. It was as if it had found a clear direction, absorbing rain and nutrients, and its branches were growing straight towards the sky.
"Ah...right."
Guan Shangchun suddenly took out another sugar cube from his pocket. He looked at Qi He and said casually, "I will always carry the candy you gave me with me."
Yan Chuanbai, who was about to let go of his worries, suddenly laughed angrily: "Ha."
"Qi Qi, I will miss you."
The air pressure beside me is getting lower and lower——
Guan Shangchun finally annoyed Yan Chuanbai and left. He curled the corners of his mouth, and the depression in his heart dissipated a lot.
Qi He stood there, frowning: But in this weather, if I carry it with me, it will melt in two days.
He didn't think any more and called Yan Chuanbai: "Let's go back too."
Yan Chuanbai withdrew his gaze and suppressed his emotion: Forget it.
-
The helicopter was parked outside.
Just as the two were about to board the plane, Zhong Panqing came over.
He was accompanied by a psychic, estimated to be a girl around 27 or 28, with short hair and a casual, clean-cut look. Qi He had no impression of her, so he looked at Zhong Panqing.
"This is Xia Jiu, an S-rank psychic who just joined the headquarters a few days ago."
Zhong Panqing stopped in front and said, "Since Guan Shang was transferred to headquarters, there are no S-level psychic systems in Base I. It's difficult to conduct experiments. We decided to transfer Xia Jiu there."
Xia Jiu raised his chin and even lifted a hair: "My special ability is 'Identification'. It's more experimental, not combat-oriented."
Yan Chuanbai took a look and said, "Okay."
Qi He pulled up the boarding gate with one hand and beckoned her, "Get on board."
Xia Jiu: "Ah? Car?"
The three of them boarded the helicopter and the propellers rose.
Qi He sat in the passenger seat as usual.
After fastening our seat belts, the helicopter flew back to Base I at lightning speed.
The shrinking mountains and roads passed by quickly below.
After flying for a while, Xia Jiu leaned against the window and asked, "...Isn't this speed a bit too fast for a helicopter?"
Qi He turned around and introduced: "This is the upgraded version of my Qi Qi flying car, the Qi Qi plane."
Xia Jiu exclaimed in admiration: "Awesome!"
She then asked, "Are the other two S-class esperians in your Base I easy to get along with? What are their personalities like?"
After those words were spoken, the cabin fell into silence.
Qi He's mind flashed with Yu Jiang's image, "...it's difficult to communicate."
You Tianxing popped up in Yan Chuanbai's mind, "He's mentally ill."
Xia Jiu turned his head and asked, "Yeah?"
…
An hour later, the helicopter arrived at Base I.
Yan Chuanbai sent a message to You Tianxing.
The latter seemed to be working on some research in the lab and simply replied, "Right away." The helipad was right behind the institute, so You Tianxing had no time to go downstairs.
Five minutes later, the helicopter slowly landed.
The propeller created a gust of wind that blew through the surrounding treetops and landed with a bang.
The hatch opened and Qi He walked down.
Just as he looked up, he saw You Tianxing coming out of the research institute. He looked like he had just experienced a failed research and development, and he was completely dizzy and shabby.
“…You’re back!”
You Tianxing excitedly rushed towards Qi He and clasped his hands, "Qi He, I heard that you were killing people at the headquarters!"
He turned to Yan Chuanbai again and patted him: "I heard that your strength has greatly increased in this battle!"
He continued: "And the official——"
There was a pause, and they looked at each other for a few seconds.
You Tianxing looked at this unfamiliar face, slowly exhaled, and sighed with mixed feelings: "...You've returned from the front lines, and you seem like a completely different person."
Several people: "..."
The author has something to say:
Xia Jiu (identification): He is mentally ill.
