Chapter 124 World L: 7 Boosting Reena's power...
While Ethan was buffing Reena, he certainly didn't just sit idly by.
No one noticed the hand hanging down, the fingers secretly interlacing, a small, pale purple magic circle appearing at the fingertips and then quickly disappearing.
At the same time, while still fighting the zombies, Tenas felt a heat in the power storage container in his pocket, followed by a mechanical voice coming out from it.
"Under attack. Please proceed to the scene immediately." X4
The voice came from the four of them almost simultaneously. When they realized that it was the container speaking, they knew that Ethan was behind it and that Ethan was in danger.
The group exchanged glances, but their bodies were covered in blue blood. Tenas carried Owen and Nadia as they flew at top speed.
Meanwhile, at Smith's residence, the blond man pressed closer, his unhurried footsteps like a death knell. Smith, already scrambling and stumbling, could no longer move.
"Heh heh—" Smith clutched the wound on his neck, squeezing out the words through gritted teeth: "Don't get too cocky! I contacted the other base commanders as soon as I came out."
Before he could finish speaking, Tenas delivered the final blow, rendering him completely speechless.
Hot, viscous blood splattered onto his face. The usual comforting smile was gone from Tenas's face, and his blue eyes shone brightly in the darkness.
There was nothing in those beautiful eyes, only an almost indifferent gaze as he fell silent. She casually wiped the blood from her face with a clean part of her arm that hadn't been splattered with blood.
The blood of the wicked stinks.
Although he can't exactly be called a good person, right?
He had no patience to listen to all that nonsense he was spouting before he died.
However, Tenas soon realized what Smith's smug smile meant before he died.
"Snap! Bang—"
Without warning, the bracelet on Tenas's left wrist cracked and exploded, causing a slight pain. But Tenas couldn't care less about that minor pain at that moment; his face instantly turned extremely pale.
Tenas wasn't stupid. Combining Smith's expression before he died with the bracelet now reduced to ashes, he understood what Smith had done.
After pretending to leave in a rage, he must have contacted the other base chiefs immediately. So now Reena has encountered the superhumans sent by the other base chiefs to kill them, which made her press that signal transmitter.
The signal receiver was made in duplicate, and he and Nadia both made it into bracelets to wear on their wrists. As soon as one side was pressed down and no longer maintained, the tiny bomb inside the bracelet would explode.
The area wasn't large, but it was enough to cause them pain and possibly some injury, so even if they were unconscious, this small explosion could wake them up and help Reena in time.
"Damn it!" Tenas cursed under his breath, then ignored Smith's obviously murdered body and rushed outside.
"Snap! Bang—"
Nadia, who was testing her subordinates' abilities, heard an explosion and felt a sharp pain in her hand. She stared in astonishment in the direction of Novigrad and the Sunfire Base.
She couldn't care less about anything else. She stopped training, gathered her men, and they went with her. One helicopter after another took off.
More and more superhumans with ill intentions are appearing.
Ethan had just swallowed ten people with magic when he looked up and saw countless superhumans flying towards him from the sky.
Reena looked terrible.
Those people kept sending powerful superhumans, it seems she's going to die here today. I just don't know if any professors managed to escape, or if they're still alive.
Reena was uncertain, her mood plummeted, and negative emotions surged like a rising tide, threatening to engulf her.
Is this the final push? They've already developed a vaccine and an antidote; if it fails, she'll die with her eyes wide open in disbelief.
Tenas should be able to continue their plans and take good care of Nadia, ensuring her safety and well-being for the rest of his life.
That's enough, Reena told herself.
Not everyone can accept their impending death so calmly, not even Reena.
Aside from those who have suffered a huge blow for various reasons or who have depression and want to die, most normal people do not want to die any way other than from old age.
Reena isn't afraid of death, but she does want to live longer, if she could. Her original plan was to live to at least 60, to do what Nadia and Tenas wanted to do. Seeing her friends' hair gradually turn gray and wrinkles slowly appear on their faces would bring her peace.
However, it seems that fate does not intend for her to live that long.
It's alright, as long as the two of them can live longer. Reena had already accepted the fact that she would most likely die here while fighting, but she still fought hard, trying to buy more time so that the professors could have a chance to survive.
However, it would only lead to Ethan dying with her... Although she felt that she was stronger than before, perhaps because of Ethan, that alone was not enough for them to survive.
Ethan's expression was also not good; he frowned and looked somewhat uneasy.
Looking at Reena's calm expression out of the corner of his eye, Ethan's somewhat anxious heart gradually calmed down as well.
No matter which world's leader it is, they all give off a very reassuring feeling! Ethan, who had no idea that Reena had already sentenced them to death in his heart, sighed inwardly.
Ethan was considering whether to use one of the more powerful spells.
Because he couldn't guarantee that the magic wouldn't affect other people in the base, and the range was somewhat uncontrollable, he hadn't used it yet. Seeing more and more superhumans gathering, he began to waver.
While these minor spells might be able to deal with some people, they seem endless. Heaven knows where all these superhumans come from? Dozens of zombies were able to move, and hundreds more rushed forward.
Ethan felt like he was developing trypophobia.
There's a huge, dark mass of people! There must be at least several hundred. It's getting increasingly crowded. What's going on? Is it still growing? Will it only stop when it reaches a thousand?
Don't come again! His tentacles can't hold that many people anymore!
Just as Ethan hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to use a spell that was relatively controllable and had a smaller range compared to other major spells, Tenas and the others arrived.
At Owen's strong suggestion, Tenas let Owen freefall during the flight, crashing into the group of superhumans, and began to gnaw on the ground, enduring the nausea.
Heh, since your motives are impure, don't blame him for turning everyone into zombies! He desperately needs some zombies in this situation.
The more crystal cores Owen absorbed, the stronger he became. He even discovered that he could control zombies... This was a major discovery.
Then he frantically absorbed the crystal cores, even when he felt like he was about to explode and die for several moments. Only then did he stop and digest the surging power.
It's like he's the Zombie King, able to control more and more zombies, now reaching an astonishing number, thanks to that endless zombie army.
Owen buried his head in his food, even injecting zombie toxins so that the bitten superhumans could quickly turn into zombies. However, the feeling was truly disgusting, and he thought he would never get used to the taste of blood.
He endured the disgust and bit them, but one or two of them didn't appreciate it, yelling things like, "What the hell, where did this zombie come from?!" and "He bit me, ahhhhhh!"
Some people even tried to kick him away, lol! They couldn't kick him at all; the more they kicked, the harder he bit.
Tenas punched one person at a time, Nadia punched three, and Yaroslava treated the superhumans like toys, swinging them around until they were dizzy and unable to get up again.
With their help, the situation quickly improved, and Ethan breathed a sigh of relief. The magic circle that was half-drawn in the air quietly dissipated.
Reena was somewhat stunned as she watched the enemies dwindle at a visible rate. Fortunately, there were no enemies around her, otherwise this opening would have been a real problem for her.
Surprisingly... the situation is slowly improving.
This was the first time she had personally experienced the power of Ethan and his fellow world guardians.
So powerful! That such astonishing power could be possessed by a human being!
The fingers trembled with excitement, only to be mercilessly pinched by the owner.
The power it possessed was so immense that Reena had to admit that for a moment she wished she had that kind of power herself.
But what does she need that for? Possessing such great power would instill fear in humanity. People would worry that their lives are in her hands, and the outcome would either be rejection out of fear, or the person with this power would rule the world.
But Reena quickly regained her senses.
We shouldn't be envious; we can't possess these powers. In fact, having them would be a bad thing.
On the bright side, besides Ethan and his group, there's no one else in this world as powerful as them; no one else possesses such terrifying strength. If there were guardians in this world, Reena would have a real headache, as it would make her plans even more difficult to implement.
"Don't have any other thoughts!" Reena thought, forcing herself to look away from the raging fire that Tenas had created.
The fire could be perfectly controlled, burning only on hostile superhumans, and even the slightest contact would instantly send flames engulfing their entire bodies, leaving their companions unable to help but instead becoming victims.
Not to mention the guardians, even the papers on the ground, after being licked by the flames, showed no signs of burning, but you could still feel some heat when you got close.
Tenas and Nadia arrived a few minutes later, leading a large group of people. They took care of the remaining superhumans in less than five minutes by working together.
