Chapter 44 Zero Team's Combat Capabilities
"It is provoking us."
Xie Tu suddenly sneered, "They're clearly telling us that it's getting dark soon, so why aren't we hiding?"
What an arrogant goalkeeper.
"Everyone, check your time and synchronize your communication devices with the contaminated area!"
Xie Tu's expression was arrogant and his tone domineering, "You've been underestimated! Everyone, get your spirits up and let it see the true strength of the Dawn Zero Team!"
"yes!"
The team members responded with excitement.
Tao Haohao set the time, picked up his grenade launcher, and thought, "Damn, finally I have a use for it."
Rather than navigating mazes and playing hide-and-seek, the Sentinels of Team Zero, who clearly dislike using their brains, would much rather fight their way in and out of a horde of mutants.
Even the rabbit's eyes were filled with a desire for battle.
A bunch of brutes.
Yun Zhao silently labeled this group of people in his heart.
She turned her head and glanced at Xie Tu.
This man seemed like two different people in front of me and in front of his other teammates.
Yun Zhao remembered that when he ran into Tao Haohao and Duan Xi before, it was Tao Haohao who cursed them as "idiots".
The little bluebird learned from him.
Sure enough, it's too easy to go astray.
Yun Zhao sighed softly, released his spiritual threads, and began breaking down the barrier again.
Greenish-blue fluorescent light danced and filled half of the library, forming another mental barrier.
This is the rabbit's illusionary city.
Her brother has a huge influence on her; he can influence not only her but also everyone in Team Zero except Yun Zhao.
18:11.
The barrier shattered, and darkness surged in like a tide.
Xie Tu grabbed her tightly, drew his sidearm from his waist, smashed the second window on the second floor, and rushed straight over.
The others followed closely behind.
Xie Tu carried Yun Zhao and leaped down from the second floor. The wind whistled past his ears briefly. He slightly bent his knees and squatted down to dissipate some of the force, and then, without pausing, he got up and moved forward.
Yun Zhao was already used to it.
She leaned on Xie Tu's shoulder and looked behind her.
Tao Haohao carried Zhou Tianqi and followed closely behind them, with Duan Xi and Rabbit only two steps behind him.
Further behind, a black wall formed in an instant, seemingly about to engulf the entire world, closing in on them in the blink of an eye.
Darkness has fallen.
The streetlights that stood neatly on both sides of the road lit up, and all the pedestrians and vehicles on the street disappeared. In the city, what replaced them was a dark mass of mutated creatures waiting for them.
Those disgusting mouthparts kept extending and retracting, roaring as they lunged at people.
The roar was deafening.
Ahead lay countless monsters, behind them a dark abyss that was devouring and collapsing.
Monsters swarmed everywhere, a dark mass, making it impossible to discern where there was a way to escape.
A group of people were attacked from both sides.
"Bang bang bang!!"
A barrage of gunfire erupted behind them.
The rabbits and their companions fired at the monsters surging from both sides.
The streets were a mess, riddled with potholes from the corrosive slime.
A nauseating stench filled the air, and the stone slabs on the ground were broken, exposing the damp, muddy black soil beneath.
The monsters' bodies pressed together, leaving deep marks on the ground. Some monsters were pushed over by their companions and instantly trampled into a pool of dark, indistinct mud by the monsters behind them.
Tao Haohao's grenade launcher continuously spewed out tongues of fire, exploding into dazzling sparks among the monster horde.
He roared.
A gigantic brown bear spirit appeared, standing about three meters tall, and slapped several charging mutants into a puddle of liquid.
That was Tao Haohao's spiritual entity.
Xie Tu was at the forefront, firing several shots in quick succession without stopping. Each shot hit its target precisely, and a bunch of mutants fell to the ground.
A colossal phoenix emerged from the void above his head, raised its head and let out a cry, then swooped down into the horde of monsters. Those mutants that came into contact with its flames instantly turned into a puddle of liquid.
Suddenly, a large section of the road ahead was clear.
Yun Zhao saw that countless black threads gradually wrapped around the wings of the fire phoenix and then disappeared into its body.
S-class spiritual entities are very strong.
Similarly, the risk of erosion is too great.
The little bluebird reluctantly flapped its wings, and countless tiny points of light illuminated the night sky as it flew towards all the spiritual entities.
"Don't fall behind, let's go to the park on the west side!" Xie Tu's eyes were like a cold pool. He took the lead and turned into a side path with Yun Zhao in his arms.
There were many people in the other directions, but there were hardly any monsters in the park.
Yun Zhao nestled motionless in his arms, speaking amidst the hail of bullets, "Don't you think it's getting dark now, as if it's deliberately leading us west?"
Each time you enter a phantom city, you face three choices.
If they make the wrong choice, they will only drift further and further apart.
The sudden increase in difficulty may be because they stumbled upon their goal and are getting closer and closer to it.
Even she had to admit that sometimes the Sentinels' keen intuition was frighteningly accurate.
That's why the goalkeeper got anxious.
That wasn't a provocation, but a life-saving tactic to divert their attention.
Xie Tu glanced down at her briefly, his gaze ambiguous.
She didn't seem to feel any fear at all.
The guide, on his first mission, faced an entire city of mutants, yet remained completely calm, even more composed than the guide himself.
Xie Tu's first thought was for the safety of her teammates, while her mind was only on the mission.
Quiet and well-behaved, perhaps it's just an illusion.
She had a ruthless streak, as if she didn't care about anyone except the people in her town.
She is truly a walking contradiction.
"You're right." Xie Tu instantly changed his mind, chose a direction, and said, "Let's go to the south train station!"
Duan Xi's peregrine falcon flew into the air to scout ahead, shouting, "This way!"
"There are just too many of his grandfathers to kill!"
"Hold on! We've only just begun."
Gunfire erupted from all sides, monsters surged, and howls echoed throughout the city.
The little bluebird was indifferent, leisurely preening its feathers.
Occasionally sensing the consciousness of the original being, it would perfunctorily flap its wings to help those spiritual entities purify the dark matter.
The cars on the street had long since become scrap metal. Unlike their armored vehicles, these cars had been completely modified and made of corrosion-resistant materials.
Without a car, they have no choice but to run there on foot.
The group advanced through the horde of monsters.
They relied on the fire phoenix to clear the way ahead.
"Captain, we're running low on bullets. There will probably be even more monsters near the station, right?" Duan Xi said casually while changing his magazine.
Xie Tu ran out of bullets quickly.
As he holstered his gun, he drew the Tang sword from the side of his backpack. "Enough talk, all of you, follow me!"
The fire phoenix charged forward, relentlessly attacking the surging mutants.
Xie Tu moved with lightning speed, following behind his spiritual body. His sword strikes were incredibly fast and precise, single-handedly holding off the monsters surging in from three directions.
Those mutants that weren't taken away by the Fire Phoenix were all swiftly killed by him with a single strike.
Black slime splattered everywhere, and he consciously shielded the person in his arms.
Yun Zhao took everything in.
S-class Sentinels are really strong; they can carry someone while fighting with one hand, and their combat power is still so strong.
He has the right to be arrogant.
Tao Haohao was still carrying the bound Zhou Tianqi, so he couldn't exert much force and simply threw him to Duan Xi, saying, "You take him with you."
Tao Haohao is a heavy weapons specialist, and he and Rabbit carry the most ammunition.
Duan Xi reluctantly accepted this burden.
The group struggled through the monster horde towards the south station.
...
In comparison, Song Liang, who was alone, faced even greater difficulties.
Using his own abilities, he discovered the existence of the barrier, then broke one of the barriers and arrived at another identical city.
Darkness suddenly descended, and all the 'people' in the city instantly transformed into monsters and attacked.
Fortunately, as a logistics personnel, Song Liang was most familiar with the city map, so he had no choice but to abandon the armored vehicle and hide in a bank vault.
He had just closed the heavy metal door when, in the instant he turned around, he met the gaze of a spiritual entity.
Song Liang: "???!!!"
