Chapter 115 Dawn
The shops were closed, the street lights were dim, casting mottled shadows, the streets were deserted, a gust of cold wind blew, rolling up the fallen leaves on the ground, making a rustling sound,
every household had their doors and windows closed, the couplets posted on both sides of the door were suddenly blown up by the cold wind, the fiery red lanterns hanging on the treetops swayed left and right, New Year's Eve should have been brightly lit and bustling with people, but tonight was an exception, everyone held their breath, holding their weapons, looking anxiously at the tall city walls.
As night falls, the moonlight shines like silver. The bright moonlight shines on the majestic city walls, giving the ancient buildings a faint silver glow. The moat shimmers, reflecting the shadow of the city walls.
Satellites continuously transmit the path and speed of the zombie tide. In about an hour, the zombie tide will enter the imperial capital.
Song Shinan has been sleepless for the past few days and nights. He closed all the city gates, first arranged the elderly, women and children to the inner city, and then formed a team according to everyone's ability. Although most of the team are superpowers, there are also ordinary people with blood who are unwilling to be protected under their wings and apply to join the team to take up arms to defend their homeland.
For this kind of people, Song Shinan is pleased, but also sad.
Traps were set up dozens of miles away from the base, and advanced thermal weapons were installed on the city walls. They tried their best to reduce casualties.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the towering bell tower flashed with red light, which indicated that the tide of corpses had already reached the traps designed dozens of miles away.
As a temporary commander, Jiang Yunqi did not interfere with the arrangements of other officers. Standing beside him was Gu Bingchen, and the two looked into the darkness in the distance.
"Ayun, do you think we can win?"
The breeze brought Gu Bingchen's whisper to his ears.
Jiang Yunqi smiled and said softly, "Try your best. I believe we can do it."
At this moment, low and chaotic footsteps slowly approached from afar. The tide of corpses was like a boundless black torrent, and there was no end in sight in the dark night.
They staggered, their rotten flesh exposed, their skin was blue-gray and full of cracks, their eyes exuded greedy light, and the air was filled with the smell of rot and blood.
On the top of the tall building, the survivors held their weapons tightly, looking solemnly at the nightmare approaching below, their heartbeats were like drums, and the fire was swaying in the darkness.
A deafening explosion broke through the night sky, and the survivors' resistance kicked off.
The colorful supernatural powers bloomed brilliantly in the darkness. Earth thorns and brambles pierced the zombies' feet, slowing down their movement. Vines swam in the tide of corpses like giant snakes, rolling up zombies and strangling them in the air. The golden arrow rain was mixed with ice-blue ice arrows. The sharp wind blades ruthlessly harvested the zombies' heads. Purple lightning followed the water flow and killed them silently. Zombies, flames, and the stench of decay mixed with the smell of burning flesh...
The survivors gripped their weapons tightly and began a close-range hand-to-hand combat. There were flashes of swords and shadows, and the sound of gunfire. They held cold weapons in their hands and wore protective gear. They swung their swords mechanically like tireless robots, chopping off the heads of the zombies one by one, and the smelly blood splattered all over their bodies.
The zombies climbed and pushed, making low roars and screams like wild animals. In the firelight, the shells on the city wall smashed into the distance, and the zombies were blown to pieces. The limbs piled up into terrifying hills, but more zombies kept pouring in, as if there was no end.
In this chaos and blood, some people were bitten by zombies and died with their last breath, while others continued to fight with their stubborn perseverance and unyielding will.
In Kyoto, the sound of artillery shells rang out one after another, and the flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the night. Old scholars, women and children huddled together tightly, their eyes filled with fear and helplessness, but more of them held deep admiration and gratitude for the people who guarded their homes. It was these people who built a solid line of defense with their flesh and blood.
Some people burst into tears, put their hands together, and kept kneeling towards the sky and the earth, praying that the disaster would end soon, and at the same time praying for the soldiers outside, hoping that they would be safe.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and every second was filled with the contest between life and death.
Jiang Yunqi's mental power was released to the maximum, and all the zombies within the range had their brains crushed by his mental power, and fell silently.
Gu Bingchen leaned against him, his deep voice tinged with concern: "Do what you can, and go back immediately if you feel uncomfortable."
"I know, what about you?" Jiang Yunqi chopped off the zombie that was biting him, his eyes fell on Gu Bingchen's lips that were a little pale, and there was worry between his eyebrows.
"I'm fine, I have the crystal core." Gu Bingchen coughed softly, and threw the golden blade at Jiang Yun after he stood up.
With a "puff".
A big hole was broken in the zombie's head.
Song Shinan was far away at first, but because of the approaching corpse tide, he gradually approached Jiang Yunqi and the others.
"I feel something is wrong..." It
's not that the Imperial Capital has never experienced a corpse tide, but this time the number of corpses is huge, and the movement trajectory is very strange.
His breath was a little unstable, and he spoke quickly: "Have you noticed that these zombies are almost all heading towards the city gate, as if something on the city gate attracted them."
Jiang Yunqi looked at the city gate. Although there was a moat and zombies were climbing the city wall, there were indeed more zombies gathering towards the city gate.
"It's Director Luo! What is he doing!"
Suddenly someone screamed in the noisy crowd.
Looking towards the source of the sound, some people were horrified, and some were at a loss...
I saw a group of people controlled by psychic powers appearing on the city wall, and behind them was Luo Yiqi in a white robe. He took off his glasses and lowered his head to look at the people fighting bloody battles under the city wall.
"Me? Of course I'm here to help."
Luo Yiqi's lips seemed to be painted with a thick layer of lip gloss, bright red, and his tone was uplifted, with a brilliant smile on his handsome face. He said: "I think they are too hard, of course they need to be fed."
As soon as the voice fell, the people standing in a row jumped down from the city wall, and the strong smell of blood drifted in the wind. The zombies stared with gray eyes and rammed the city gate more excitedly.
"Are you crazy?"
Most of the superpowers immediately changed the subject and took the lead in attacking the group of zombies ramming the city gate.
"Don't waste your energy. There is an appetite attractant painted on the city gate. This thing is good. It was contributed by Zou Rui. It's a pity that he didn't see how brilliant the thing he researched was." As he spoke, another group of people were controlled to block in front of Luo Yiqi. He looked at Song Shinan from a distance and laughed loudly, "I'm a madman, don't you know that?"
Tang Yichao looked at the silent Song Shinan.
He did hide some information. Luo Yiqi lost his qualification to be a teacher due to mental illness before the end of the world. After his sister died, his mental illness worsened and turned into a mental illness.
In other words, Luo Yiqi is a psychopath.
"We can't go on like this. Let alone whether the city gate will be breached, the people in the city will be killed by Luo Yiqi first!"
Zhou Jun roared not far away: "What do you want to do?"
"Nothing, I just want to see if a mouse can kill an elephant."
This sentence is meaningful, but Jiang Yunqi and others know that this sentence refers to the incomplete beast chess.
It seems that they are the elephants, and the mice are the zombies.
The emergence of this zombie tide must have been driven by him.
Jiang Yunqi and Gu Bingchen exchanged a glance, and the latter understood and nodded.
He needed to delay for a while.
"How did you do it?" Gu Bingchen asked in confusion.
Luo Yiqi smiled and said, "How could I have the ability to drive zombies? I just added fuel to
the fire." He was the first to discover something was wrong long before the explosion.
As the director of the Intelligence Bureau, one of his duties is to observe the movements of zombies. In other words, he is the one who discovered the tide of corpses.
It's just that he intercepted the news and used his supernatural powers to control his men to spread a large amount of attractants along the direction of the tide of corpses.
Song Shinan saw a familiar face in the controlled crowd. It was Lin Yu's cheap second brother Lin Zijin.
He immediately realized that Luo Yiqi was seeking revenge.
The people he controlled to die with his supernatural power were all former supporters of the two researchers.
Lin Zijin was one of them.
Jiang Yunqi was in the crowd, his mental power quietly approaching Luo Yiqi.
He didn't know if he was more sensitive because of mental illness. Jiang Yunqi's mental power was obviously much higher, but he still noticed the danger at the first time.
He looked at Jiang Yunqi and smiled lightly: "I know you are very powerful."
So he was prepared.
The plan was only halfway through and must not be interrupted.
He devoured all the crystal cores like a small mountain like a glutton. The energy instantly filled the supernatural power that was about to be exhausted. The blue veins on the side of his forehead bulged slightly. Luo Yiqi endured the pain, his eyes were red as bloodshot.
Sensing the counterattack of mental power, Jiang Yunqi's expression remained calm and indifferent. His brain ached slightly, but he obviously had not reached his limit.
Gu Bingchen had a cold face, and a layer of cold murderous intent appeared in his eyes. He took out a large number of crystal cores from the space. Compared with Luo Yiqi's mountain of crystal cores, his crystal cores were no less than a mountain.
And...
they certainly couldn't rely on Jiang Yunqi alone.
Gu Bingchen protected Jiang Yunqi while looking for a breakthrough.
The city gate was shaking and about to fall, but fortunately there were still psychics struggling to support it. They repaired the cracks in the city gate over and over again.
As for the other psychics, they tried their best to kill the zombies and prevented them from hurting their compatriots.
Xie Er and Long Yilan were located relatively far back. Not only did Luo Yiqi on the city wall not notice them, but even Gu Bingchen and Song Shinan did not see them.
"Old Xie, my mental power is not low either. I can help the general."
The laser drilled a hole in the zombie's head, revealing the crystal core inside.
Xie Er nodded: "I will protect you."
After that, Luo Yiqi, who was trying to attack Jiang Yunqi, suddenly found that another mental power no less powerful than his was coming from the side. He was not careful for a moment, and his brain felt like it was pierced by a needle, and it was stinging. Gu Bingchen
narrowed his cold eyes and suddenly attacked. The golden blade went towards Luo Yiqi's heart.
Unfortunately, he dodged it.
Blood was oozing from the corners of Luo Yiqi's mouth. He grinned and laughed happily: "How can I let you join hands to deal with me?"
"But..."
Before he finished speaking, a terrifying lightning bolt struck down from the void and hit Luo Yiqi's brain directly.
What followed was the mental backlash of Jiang Yunqi and Long Yilan.
"You...you really are."
Luo Yiqi rolled his eyes twice, his eyes dimmed slightly.
Forget it, it was expected.
Ants cannot shake the big tree, and mice cannot eat elephants.
The victory or defeat has long been decided.
His body fell straight down the city wall, and Luo Yiqi looked at the hazy moonlight and the bright stars.
A gentle arc appeared at the corners of his bright red lips.
Sister, your brother is here to find you.
With a sound of "bang——".
It was the movement of corpses falling into the moat.
Without Luo Yiqi's control, the people on the wall immediately regained consciousness.
There was a rope tied to Lin Zijin's wrist, and before he could come back to his senses, a huge pulling force pulled him down the wall.
There was another loud noise.
Another person fell into the moat, and his fragile neck was bitten by the fangs of the corpses.
This scene was reflected in everyone's eyes.
The man with the supernatural power of clairvoyance raised his hand weakly: "It seems that Director Luo also has a rope tied to his wrist."
Until he dies, he will pull someone to support his back.
"But...but this city gate is really going to collapse!!!"
Someone's superpowers were exhausted, and he collapsed on the blood-stained ground, his eyes were confused, as if he didn't know the meaning of his persistence.
"I have a way to solve it, you continue to repair the city gate."
At this time, Xie Er suddenly walked over quickly.
This food trap is very similar to the trap used to deal with the insect tribe.
He happened to have the antidote for the trap in his space button.
A faint fragrance dissipated in the air with the cold wind, and the group of corpses that had been climbing and hitting the city gate stopped moving. After a moment of blank eyes, they attacked the nearby crowd.
"Fuck, this zombie is coming to bite me! It really works!"
"Damn it! How presumptuous of you! We don't know each other! Don't bite me!"
"Ahhh, help me, I've run out of my powers! Which big guy is willing to save my life!"
The crowd first cheered with joy, followed by laughter and cursing.
After an unknown amount of time, the zombie tide began to weaken, and those rotten figures slowly retreated in the firelight.
When the first ray of dawn penetrated the clouds and sprinkled wantonly on the blood-stained land, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wuwuwu, did we really win?"
"Fuck, I knew we could do it!"
"I'm so hungry and sleepy, I think I've lost all my means and strength."
"Yeah! We won!"
An impassioned shout broke through the sky, awakening the joy in everyone's hearts. The survivors hugged each other, tears welling up in their eyes, not only tears of joy, but also tears of remembrance for the victims.
On this land washed by blood, the loud singing resounded through the sky.
"Where are you going?" Gu Hua looked at Xie Er, who was walking hurriedly, and asked loudly.
Xie Er looked at Gu Hua on the tower against the light, smiling lightly, and speaking in a gentle tone with some certainty: "I found a breakthrough in the vaccine, do you want to join us?"
Gu Hua was stunned for a long time, and her eyes burst into a glimmer of surprise: "Yes! Of course, wait for me!"
Tang Yichao and Xu Huili supported each other and walked forward. The former wailed weakly: "I'm so hungry, I'm so sleepy."
Instead of empathy, Xu Huili scolded him without hesitation: "If you dare to rub zombie blood on my hair, you're done!"
Chu Wanyue smiled as she watched the two people's fight, and suddenly the shadow of an umbrella appeared under her feet.
"What are you doing with the umbrella?" She looked up and asked curiously.
Long Yilan rubbed her nose and explained softly: "There was a superpower spraying water into the sky, I... held an umbrella to prevent my hair from getting wet."
Chu Wanyue blinked, a pair of beautiful almond eyes flashed a sly smile, she stretched out her slender jade fingers, and the cold water splashed on Long Yilan's face. She smiled and ran away: "You seem to have forgotten that I am also a water superpower."
"I... I haven't forgotten."
The ears hidden under the long golden hair floated a faint pink.
"I said, we will win." Jiang Yunqi looked at the gorgeous clouds in the sky and couldn't help but sigh at the beauty of nature.
Gu Bingchen grabbed Jiang Yunqi's hand and played with it, not really paying attention to the teasing looks from the people around him; "Yeah, yeah, we won, so is there a reward?"
Jiang Yunqi: "What reward?"
"Can I be on top tonight?" Gu Bingchen's eyes were a little ambiguous.
"......Not today."
"Then tomorrow! Don't regret it!"
"Okay, whatever you say."
The morning sun was bright and warm, dyeing the figures of the two people with a touch of gold. They stood side by side, their figures were stretched out by the rising sun, and the shadows on the ground were intertwined and overlapped.
The breeze blew gently, and the clothes and hair fell down.
Today is a good day, suitable for a date.
