Chapter 24 Limit Breakthrough
The rain outside was pouring down, as if trying to vent all the dissatisfaction that had accumulated over this period of time. This was also the first heavy rain in the three months since the end of the world.
The team members waiting in the house could only see purple lightning flashing outside from time to time through the small hole reserved. Two hours later, the intervals between the purple light appeared longer and longer. They knew that Purple Eagle's supernatural power was almost exhausted.
"These damn zombie birds!"
Eagle Mastiff cursed under his breath.
Because of the ripples' distraction, the zombie birds were no longer obsessed with them hiding in the room, but wanted to swallow the fresh meat in their mouths first.
Eagle Wing on the rooftop wiped his face and asked loudly:
"Purple Eagle, can you still hold on?"
"Not bad, I'm about to break through the limit."
Lianyi responded that because of the water shield supported by Eagle Wings, the two of them did not get wet in the heavy rain.
With the help of the increasingly heavy rain, Lianyi killed some of the zombie birds that swarmed around. The remaining zombie birds knew that the meat in their mouths was hard to swallow, so they became more cautious and began to use tricks to make a feint to the east and attack in the west, trying to separate the two.
“These things actually know how to layout.”
This surprised Hawkwing.
At the same time, he immediately waved his hand, and the raindrops falling from the sky turned into water needles, and then accurately pierced into the head of the zombie bird. A group of zombie sparrows fell down. This kind of sparrow was the most difficult to deal with because of its small size and sharp claws. It would be easy to get hit if you were not careful.
As soon as Lianyi's supernatural power recovered a little, he immediately took Eagle Wing's place and waved his hand to release a thunder ball, which, with the help of heavy rain, spread to the flock of zombie birds in the sky. Many charred zombie birds fell from the sky like dumplings.
Lianyi felt that the supernatural power that he had recovered with great difficulty had reached its lowest point again. It was really useless.
Eagle Wing didn't even have time to rest. He pushed himself once again, releasing his water-based abilities and instantly killing another group of zombie birds that surrounded him.
Lianyi looked through the rain at the flickering red eyeballs in the darkness, frowning tightly. These things were very smart. They let the small zombie birds like sparrows consume the special powers of the two of them, and the rest would wait until they were out of strength and tear them apart in minutes.
Lian Yi said in a deep voice:
"Captain, the IQ of these things is also improving. They actually know how to fight a war of attrition."
"Our two superpowers, with the help of the heavy rain, can just restrain these things. Now we can only hold on."
Eagle Wing has no better solution now.
"Captain, your ability has reached the peak of level one. It's just right for you to use this heavy rain to sprint forward. I will use some external force."
Lianyi has a clear idea. At present, the best way is to improve her supernatural powers so that she can have the confidence to kill these zombie birds.
When this group of zombie birds kept biting them, Lianyi had no intention of letting these aerial enemies leave, as this place was not far from their temporary base.
In fact, Yingyi had already shown signs of a breakthrough, but he had been suppressing it because the situation was not right. Now, after hearing Lianyi's words, he said very straightforwardly:
"Okay, you hold on for a while, I'll break through now!"
Then he held two first-level crystal cores in each hand and began to absorb the power inside. Their crystal cores were all uniformly distributed before they went on the mission, so that they could replenish the losses in time.
As the power in the crystal core entered his body, Eagle Wing felt that the barrier was fading and immediately sped up the absorption.
Lianyi, who was struggling to open the lightning net, just wanted to roll her eyes. She really wanted Yingyi to break through, but could she wait until she absorbed the second-level crystal core before taking action? Now she was forced to take the lead.
She took out the secondary crystal core from the space, held it in her hand, and while absorbing the power inside, she held up the electric net to prevent the zombie birds from approaching.
The large zombie birds that had been choosing to wait and see seemed to have seen that Lianyi and Yingyi were not strong enough. Two of them had lost their patience and flapped their wings to fly to the roof of the second floor.
At this time, the water curtain covering the two people's heads suddenly began to expand, slowly covering the entire two-story building. Eagle Wing jumped up, feeling full of strength, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Under this strong pressure, he broke through to the second level.
The next second, the expanding water curtain was divided into thousands of water arrows under Eagle Wing's control, shooting straight at the large zombie bird flying towards them. The "crackling" sound rang out again, and this time the falling zombie birds once again covered the ground.
With a loud "boom", Lian Yi successfully advanced with the help of the second-level crystal core. The football-sized thunder ball thrown in his hand flew into the sky and connected with the lightning in the air, making the sound even louder. With the help of the falling raindrops, it spread to the entire airport and brought all the zombie birds staying here into the attack range.
After using his ultimate move, Lian Yi felt the surging power in his body gradually subside. The rain was still falling, but the ground in front of the second floor was covered with a thick layer of zombie bird corpses. They won this battle.
Lianyi fell to the ground and took a breath, while Yingyi shouted to his companions below:
"After clearing out the zombie birds in the building, we will move to the large warehouse. It's not safe here anymore."
"receive!"
Forty minutes later, Eagle Mastiff and the rest of the people successfully reunited with the captain and his men, and then went directly to the previous large warehouse under the open water curtain.
After they successfully entered the large warehouse, the rain became heavier and water had accumulated in the low-lying areas.
At the temporary base, Sun Yi's perception ability broke through and reached the first level in the evening of the day after Lianyi and his companions set out.
When she opened her eyes, she only saw her younger brother. She suddenly had a bad feeling and immediately asked:
"Where's Ripple?"
"Sister Lianyi and Captain Yingyi are out on a mission, and they didn't take me with them. They asked me to stay here and protect you while you level up."
Sun Wang was a little depressed, but when he saw his elder sister successfully break through the first level, his mood turned from gloomy to cheerful.
With a loud "boom", lightning and thunder flashed in the sky, and then raindrops fell densely, as if the right time had finally come.
Sun Yi looked at the raindrops outside the window, and the strong uneasiness became even clearer. She turned to Sun Wang and said:
"Go out with me!"
"Now?"
Sun Wang was a little puzzled. Why were they going out for a walk in such heavy rain?
"Yes, now! Hurry!"
Sun Yi urged.
"Oh, OK!"
Then Sun Wang found a raincoat and left the special forces dormitory area with his elder sister.
Before the rain got heavier, the two returned to the dormitory. Sun Yi had already confirmed her own perception at this time, and also knew what gave her that bad feeling.
Sun Yi decisively went to find the captain of the special forces team and told him her feelings. The rest of the things were beyond her control. Now she could only hope that Lianyi and the others could return safely.
