The zombies arrived quickly, probing and howling outside the wall.
"In a moment, you, Jiang Yan, Dongyang, and Du Chong will attack from the front, while Gu An and I will flank from the left and right to check if there are any other zombies hiding. Once we form an encirclement, we'll make sure they have nowhere to escape."
Jiang Ruan sat in the monitoring room, where the figures of zombies flashed across nine videos. They were agile and powerful, and the base's doors were about to collapse.
"Okay, I have no objection. This is probably the best way." Duan Yu stared at the screen thoughtfully.
Surprisingly, their faces didn't rot like those of level one zombies. It must be because they've killed so many and have so much energy.
"Okay, let's go now."
Jiang Ruan has a high level of trust in everyone because she saved Li Jie yesterday, and Jiang Yan strongly assured her.
So I usually listen to some of what she says.
Therefore, as soon as she spoke, everyone followed her instructions, and even the somewhat eccentric Duan Yu did not object.
Gu An, however, looked a little off.
"Be careful in everything, and don't overexert yourself!" He said this to Jiang Ruan as he was leaving.
"Yes, you too."
At the base entrance, the originally raging zombies saw the door they had attacked suddenly open and several people coming out. They first took a step back, and then pounced on them.
"Damn it, the corpse-repelling powder isn't working! We sprayed it all over our bodies, but they seem completely unaffected!" Du Chong narrowly dodged the venom sprayed by one of the zombies and quickly activated his wood-type ability to wrap it with vines.
It was quickly torn apart, which enraged it.
"Watch out, get out of the way!" Jiang Yan used his divine power to pull Du Chong up, while he himself used his lightning-based abilities to stop the zombies that were rushing towards him.
"Thank you, wow... That's amazing! This is so different from what I've seen before. Is this really only level two?"
Du Chong was panting heavily, his hands never stopping as he continued to urge the vines to restrict the zombies' movements and slow them down, so that the other three could attack smoothly.
"Tsk, you shouldn't have come. How did someone so weak become a captain!" Duan Yu activated his fire-type ability to encircle the zombies in front of him and throw them aside. He then saw that Du Chong had been rescued by Jiang Yan, and the two were too close, which displeased him.
"You..." Du Chong held his breath, realizing that he was indeed not on the same page as Duan Yu. He then snorted coldly and ignored him.
Just as he turned around and snorted coldly, "Luan Yu" flew into a rage, spread its wings, and let out a strange "hehehe" laugh. With a flap of its wings, it tore Du Chongzheng's vine cage to shreds.
"Ahhh! Big brother, are you alright!" Li Jie's earth-type ability had just awakened, and coupled with his recent recovery from a serious illness, his skill level was too low. He was placed at the back of the team and used his ability to smash zombies with stones.
Seeing that Du Chong had been blasted away, they quickly came over to check on him.
Duan Yu was entangled with the other two and couldn't free his hands, while Jiang Yan was also attacking "Luan Yu" and couldn't spare any attention for the moment.
"Uh... I'm fine, don't worry about me. Go help them, those guys will be here soon, and they'll make sure these three die a horrible death."
Du Chong swallowed the blood he was about to vomit, but then his stomach churned and he vomited it all up.
"Big Brother!" Li Jie didn't have time to activate his superpower and rushed over to check on Du Chong's injuries. But when he suddenly withdrew his hand, the rubble he had summoned lost its target and fell down in unison. If Duan Yu and Jiang Yan hadn't been so agile, they would have been hit long ago.
The thought of having to deal with zombies and also the stupid "attacks" from his teammates made Duan Yu, who had been holding back his temper, finally lose it.
"Damn it, if you can't beat them, just run away. If your superpowers aren't good enough, practice more. If you're hoping to cram at the last minute and put on a show of brotherhood, get out of here. What we need are teammates who fight alongside us, not cowards who drag us down and ask for protection."
He turned around and continued fighting the zombie after only a few seconds.
Just as "Luan Yu" was about to stab the two people hiding behind with its sharp wings, Gu An arrived in time, immediately activated his protective shield, and then retreated, causing "Luan Yu" to miss its target.
“I’ll deal with ‘Luan Yu’, you two take care of the other two. Hold on a little longer, Jiang Ruan will be here soon.”
Gu An's voice was like a clear spring, carrying an undeniable authority that made both of them obey without question.
The previously carefree "Luan Yu" laughed even more fiercely when several more people joined in. Its wings were now fully spread, reaching three meters in length, and each feather gleamed with the light of sharp blades.
It flapped its wings and actually took flight during the brief respite from the rain.
But it is only two meters high.
Gu An activated his golden supernatural power, attracting the scattered metal fence debris to stab at "Chaotic Feathers".
At the same time, he took out the harmful liquid metal he had collected from his pocket, and with a flick of his finger, he swung a long sword-like tool that seemed to have a directional navigation function over the wings of "Chaotic Feathers".
It had lost its composure, and its shrill screams startled Jiang Ruan, who had just arrived.
"It seems much bigger than what I saw in the video. It looks like this is its complete form." Jiang Ruan looked up and let out a long sigh of relief. She was a little out of breath from running so fast.
"That's right, it has blades on its wings that seem to be non-toxic, but that's probably not going to work now. It's likely to crash this time."
Gu An smiled slightly, the tension from the previous battle gone.
As they were talking, with a "thud," "Luan Yu" fell from the sky and crashed to the ground, its feathers scattering everywhere as it struggled.
"Qingfeng, the prison space, quick!" Gu An shouted immediately upon seeing this.
Without hesitation, Qingfeng quickly used the cage space to trap "Luanyu". Seeing that their companion was injured, the other two zombies became even more ferocious than before, and Duan Yu and Jiang Yan almost couldn't hold on.
"I'll do it!" Anxia summoned the Black Divine Wood, and countless vines quickly wrapped around and trapped the two zombies.
They were already exhausted, and now that they were trapped, they could only struggle haphazardly.
"Phew... finally done, I'm exhausted!" After Anxia trapped the person, Qingfeng used the cage space to hold them firmly in place.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief; everyone knew the significance of catching three level-two zombies.
"Okay, I'll go and submit a report right now, explaining our situation. Since you've all been here recently, the country will certainly not forget your contributions."
As Duan Yu spoke, he took out a specially made communication device from his waist, preparing to contact his superiors.
"Wait a minute, if possible, I hope you won't mention 'us' yet, just mention yours. I don't mind giving all the credit to you."
Jiang Ruan was unwilling to be controlled by others; she preferred to form her own faction, and besides, it was better not to seek such credit.
