Chapter 193
"Lu Xiao!" someone cried out in grief; it was Lu Xiao's comrade-in-arms.
Lu Xiao's wind blades continued to injure people, and they were powerless to do anything about him.
Lu Xiao is a warrior, and he is not the same as Han Qi's team of individual superhumans.
At this moment, Lu Xiao's comrades were all grieving and weeping. When they returned from the mission, they did not notice that Lu Xiao had been injured by a zombie. Even Lu Xiao himself did not notice. Otherwise, they would not have waited for Lu Xiao to turn into a zombie, especially since he appeared at the entrance of the base.
Lu Xiao was just a hair's breadth away from entering the base; if that had happened, the consequences would have been even more unimaginable.
Despite their grief, everyone tried to kill Lu Xiao, but unfortunately, none of them succeeded. It seemed that Lu Xiao, now a zombie, had doubled his strength.
Han Qi's eyes also reddened. He often participated in missions led by Lu Xiao and had a good relationship with him. His friend turned into a zombie and unintentionally killed so many people, so Han Qi was naturally saddened for him.
Soon after, the base commander arrived with a large group of people, including the base's best-equipped squad.
The weapons they carried were known as miniature nuclear weapons, which were rarely used. As soon as they arrived, they lined up and pointed their cannons at Lu Xiao.
Of course, it would be better not to use weapons. There are still many survivors at the scene, and if heavy weapons are used, it will inevitably affect others.
The base commander's face was serious and his gaze was firm, as if the person who had turned into a zombie and was about to be blown up was not his son.
He was a competent leader, but no one knew how trembling his hands were beneath his sleeves.
How could I not be heartbroken?
"Base Commander?" someone asked softly. They could only fire the cannons with the base commander's approval.
"First, evacuate the crowd from the scene." The base commander's calm tone gave everyone great confidence.
Immediately, some people took advantage of a lull in the fighting to go forward and evacuate the crowd.
It was at this time that Rong Rong and her group arrived at the Beijing base.
The scene ahead was chaotic, but Xiao Mingxu showed no intention of stopping. Their RV stood out conspicuously among the panicked vehicles that were trying to get away.
However, no one paid them any attention until they encountered soldiers who came to evacuate the crowd.
"Turn the vehicle around immediately and leave! Danger ahead!" the soldier shouted.
Xiao Mingxu ordered Qi Xiu to stop the car, and he went down to inquire about the situation. Soon after, their team joined the battle.
Xiao Mingxu and his group attracted a lot of attention as soon as they appeared, primarily because of their amazing strength. They included a dual-elemental ability user (lightning and water), a mental ability user, and three ability users who, although single-elemental, possessed extremely strong combat awareness.
Secondly, because there was a woman among them.
A woman wearing a mask and hat, with a slender and well-proportioned figure, perfectly conforming to the golden ratio.
Her fair, glowing skin shone brightly in the sunlight, a stark contrast to the drab survivors at the base entrance, making her seem like a princess among a beggar crowd.
Is she really a princess?
Her clothes were comfortable and shiny, clearly showing that her quality of life hadn't declined even in the apocalypse, and she was obviously well taken care of.
Just like now, although the superpowered individuals around her were all involved in the battle, they never strayed more than two meters away from her.
They held the woman firmly in their arms, like a group of loyal knights, always protecting their princess.
Perhaps it was the atmosphere that was at play, or perhaps it was the woman's unique charm; in any case, even though people couldn't see the woman's face, they still felt that she was a top-tier beauty.
Many people's eyes will unconsciously fall on the other person. It's hard to say exactly what they want to see, but they are inexplicably attracted to the other person.
This includes Han Qi, Lu Xiao's comrades, the base commander and his team, the soldiers wielding nuclear weapons, and countless eyes on the city wall.
As a result, Rong Rong and the others got closer and closer to the base entrance, and also closer and closer to Lu Xiao.
Finally, Lu Xiao's attention was completely drawn to Rong Rong and the others. He stopped attacking, stared fiercely at them, and made an offensive movement, like a wild beast ready to pounce and tear them apart at any moment.
At this moment, Lu Xiao's eyes had turned completely blood red, his neck and face were covered with blue veins, and his skin was pale and bluish. He had basically turned into a zombie. Only the occasional painful struggle in his eyes showed that he still had self-awareness.
Whenever he regained consciousness, Lu Xiao wanted to shout for his comrades to kill him. He couldn't accept killing people. However, he was no longer able to speak normally, and the only sound that came out was the unique roar of a zombie.
Just as Lu Xiao was about to launch an attack on Rong Rong and the others, the base chief at the door finally managed to utter a sentence with difficulty, his throat dry.
"Target Lu Xiao, the Fierce Tigers unleash a barrage..."
"Base Commander!" someone suddenly interrupted him, "Perhaps we can capture Brother Xiao and lock him up first. Maybe we can save Brother Xiao when the antidote for the zombie virus comes out."
"Dr. Fang's research has made new progress, and the antidote will be available soon!"
The man's voice was urgent, and his face pleaded.
Lu Xiao was well-liked and was the protector and pillar of the base, so many people couldn't accept that he was going to die.
The base commander was the same, but he had to remain rational.
"Unless we get the antidote now and use it on Lu Xiao immediately, by the time the antidote is developed, Lu Xiao will have already turned into a zombie."
"What use would the antidote be then? If it were useful, wouldn't all the billions or even hundreds of billions of zombies around the world be able to turn into humans?"
Is that possible?
By the end, the base commander's voice had become much softer.
I've only ever heard of vaccines making you immune to viruses and preventing you from turning into a zombie. How can a zombie turn back into a human?
That's irreversible damage, how could that be?
The person next to him was speechless for a moment.
After a brief silence came low sobs. Who says men don't shed tears easily?
It wasn't just one person; many people around were quietly wiping away tears. They had all heard the base commander's words.
Finally, the base commander's eyes also welled up with tears. He waved his hand heavily and said, "Give the order."
The man next to him choked up and roared, "Tiger Team, listen up! Target Lu Xiao, prepare for a bombardment!"
With tears in their eyes, all the members of the Fierce Tigers raised the cannons on their shoulders and aimed them at Lu Xiao.
At the same time, someone urgently reminded Rong Rong and the others to retreat.
Not far away, Han Qi and the others, who saw the commotion, also consciously moved away from Lu Xiao. Han Qi couldn't bear to see Lu Xiao blown up in front of him, so he turned his back to him.
The man's screams continued in my ears, "Tiger Team, open fire..."
"Look!"
A gasp interrupted the man's shout, followed by a chorus of gasps and gasps.
