Chapter 300 - Queen
Number of Words: 5108 Update Time: 2013-01-10 20: 02: 00
The acid bomb dragged a dark green light along with it, creating a huge wave of air on the ground. In a blink of an eye, it was already close to the fat corpse. The jade-green light had already illuminated most of the fat corpse's body. Only at this moment did Fatty's bald head slow down to look at the light bullet. His eyes were filled with shock!
Suddenly, two figures were inserted between the light bullet and the fat corpse. The two guards who were on the attack path charged forward, waving their sharp blades in the air and slashing at the acid bomb. The acid bomb instantly burst with light. The invasive outer layer of energy allowed the guard's blade to cut through before melting away, unable to touch the core of the incandescent energy at all.
In a split-second, the four blades on the guards' arms melted, and their hands were reduced to the upper part of their body. Green light could still be seen covering the wound, but after being blocked by the guards, the green layer of energy had been completely used up. A dazzling white ball of light lightly touched the body of one of the guards. The scales on the corpse's body instantly melted and disintegrated, exposing the body beneath the scales of the living corpse to the ball of energy.
A burst of light lit up in the field, and a faint silver ring of light flashed across the surroundings. Then, a dazzling ball of white light rose from the darkness. The balls of light melted like cheese, and the flames spread out in all directions. In the blink of an eye, they had covered more than half of the track and field. Only at this moment did the sound of an explosion ring out.
Amidst the rumbling sounds, the fiery clouds expanded and contracted, finally converging into a pillar of fire that rose ten meters into the air. Only then did it slowly extinguish.
The two guards had disappeared.
They were able to block most of the energy from the light bullets. The fat corpse was only affected by the residual flames, causing a small area of burns. As for those who were hit by the fire cloud, regardless of whether they had the ability or the guards, the damage they received was miniscule. After all, the most lethal light bullets fired by the invaders were the ball of incandescent energy in the core. Upon contact, it would release a destructive high-frequency vibration energy. However, the temperature of the white fire after the explosion was also as high as 500 degrees Celsius. However, to Su Chen and the others, the high temperature of five hundred degrees of flames could not cause much damage to them.
At the same time that the Acid Bullet was blocked by the two guards, Su Moyu bent his body and rushed forward like a cheetah towards his target.
Several shrieks sounded at the same time. In the eyes of the remaining guards, the danger of zero far surpassed the four in front of them. The seven corpses pounced towards the enemies, but were blocked in the process by the others. Five of the guards were stopped, and Su Shi alone was able to stop two of the corpses with sharp blades.
In a short moment, it was close to zero. Seeing the mountain of flesh in front of his eyes, suddenly, two black shadows stabbed into the space between him and the fat corpse. The two guards screamed as they pounced towards Zero Soaring Sky. Their hands and feet struck together like two humanoid spiders, sealing off Zero's space to advance.
With a groan, the silver lines at the edge of his right pupil converged to form a vertical pupil.
In the guard's perception, the life energy of zero suddenly rose. Their bodies were covered in scales and their ability to judge danger was increased to the highest level.
Under the [Rampage] state, the pores all over his body emitted an astonishing amount of heat, like a machine operating at a high speed. The energy in his body was being frantically transferred to different parts of his body along with his blood. With the increase in his speed, he created an illusory shadow as he charged towards the guard. The two guards rotated at the same time, using their best attacks to face the great enemy, Zero.
Both sides had no way of backing down. Victory and defeat would be decided in an instant!
Time suddenly slowed to a crawl. After starting up the 'bullet time', the speed at which his brain processed the data within a limited amount of time had increased by nearly an entire level. In his eyes, the Sharp Bladed Corpse was not as simple as simply spinning its body. The rotating blade was surrounded by energy waves. They slowly spread out to a range of about three meters from the tip of the blade.
In other words, when Zero entered their attack range, even if the sharp edge corpse's real blade could not touch him, the dark space's slicing wave would cut Zero into pieces.
However, there were gaps between the slicing waves. There was an attack gap between each slicing wave. It was hard to detect, but it did exist.
A sharp whistle rang out, and the speed of zero increased. In the blink of an eye, his figure flashed, and he had already passed by the two guards.
Zero's body paused in midair for a second and then spurted out a faint mist of blood. He did not stop there. After landing, he rolled on the ground and accelerated towards the mountain of flesh. On Zero's body, hundreds of thin and fine cuts appeared on his battle uniform. The skin under the tactical clothing split and turned, revealing pink muscle tissue, and even the bones in the body.
As for the two guards, they simply hovered in midair, and just as they were about to fall to the ground, the heads of the two zombies exploded, their brains appearing along with the sound of gunfire.
At some point in time, a golden warhawk had appeared on Zero's left hand. It was this automatic pistol that had reaped the lives of the two guards. This was not something that anyone could do. The guard's head was also wrapped in scales, so even if he held the golden seat close to his head and fired, he still might not be able to pierce through. But now, their heads had exploded into a pile of mincemeat.
No one knew how Zero was done!
Zero-forward.
The first step was the fat corpse.
The second step was to reach the fat corpse's waist.
The third step, he had already reached the fat corpse's shoulder!
Zero shot up and rolled in the air.
The fat corpse finally reacted, raising its chubby head towards the sky, just in time to see Zero flipping over in midair, head down, feet in a straight line with it.
Instinctively, the fat corpse wanted to pull away from Zero, but as soon as it raised its arms and six legs from the ground, the light above its head shone brightly.
The invader quietly aimed at the fat corpse's head, and the cannon's muzzle began to emit a dazzling brilliance.
The fat corpse only moved its head to the side, and a blue torrent of water flowed down from the mouth of the invader's cannon.
On the dark track, a dark green beam of light came crashing down from the sky. The torrent of energy cut through the fat corpse's weak body and reached the ground.
In the next moment, a huge ball of light with a diameter of ten meters appeared on the ground. The ball of light slowly rose and then suddenly exploded, releasing a blazing white flame that engulfed a thousand meters!
A close combat cannon, comparable to a direct attack from a ship's cannon, was extremely powerful. The fat corpse did not have any combat techniques, so the strength of his body was no different from an ordinary living corpse. Even a sharp corpse could not withstand the attack of the invaders, let alone this fat mountain. The fat corpse's body was first cut in half by the torrent of energy, and then the resulting explosion of energy directly annihilated its body.
The force of the attacker's recoil sent another mist of blood flying into the air, while simultaneously lifting his body into the air. He landed on the ground as the light from the explosion receded. However, his feet were unsteady, and he finally managed to steady himself after a slight stagger.
Zero stood up and the flames from the explosion rose high into the sky, forming a fiery cloud. Under the fiery clouds, sparks flew everywhere, but the fat corpse's body was still burning. It was not only this factory that was destroyed by Zero, the flames released by the energy bullets also followed the connection between the fat corpse and the neural network and ignited the flesh that covered the various buildings in the academy city.
For a time, the University City was on fire. Not long after, there were more sporadic explosions. It was the explosion of the biological cannon.
The fight on the track was still going on, and the rest of the Sharpbladed Corpses were being reduced rapidly by the pincers of Suleau and Berrien. Without the support of the fat corpse factory, the number of sharp edge corpses had not increased. The scales of victory were now leaning towards the human side. But the bigger victories are the destruction of arsenal and information networks. Without these two things, it would only be a matter of time before Remter repels the legion of zombies.
Zero was a little weak. When he crossed over the corpse's seal, his injuries were not as simple as they appeared on the surface. The energy waves had not only injured his body, but they had also continued to damage his bones and organs after entering his body. If he wasn't in berserk mode, Zero would rely on his strength up to the Fourth Order to ruthlessly destroy the raging energy in his body. However, in that instant, all the blood vessels in his body almost ruptured.
Now, other than the wounds on his body, the bones of his entire body were covered in dark markings, and some of his important organs were damaged. The most serious injuries were from the lungs, and almost half of the lungs were missing from the explosion. Right now, even a single breath of air felt like thousands of knives were scraping against him with all their might. His face was pale, but the corners of his mouth slowly curved into a smile.
No matter how bad the injury was, as long as he was alive, everything would be fine. For people with the ability of zero, as long as their main organs were not destroyed, the energy in their body would stimulate tissue regeneration. Moreover, Zero had absorbed a portion of Hans' ability and was able to recover an ability that far surpassed others of the same level.
As long as one didn't die, victory would always be on the side of zero.
At this moment, something round was blown to Zero's feet. This was the head of the fat corpse. Although it tried to tilt its head, but there was still a small part of it that was wiped off by the bombardment of the invaders, silently melting into the air.
The chubby corpses with only one head left naturally couldn't do anything, but Su Bai feared that they had the ability to regenerate, so he raised his foot, wanting to stomp on that head. Suddenly, the eyes on the fat corpse's head suddenly turned to zero, then it let out a short burst of laughter.
"... Humans, this .. "It's just the prelude .." The fat corpse actually spoke in the language of the mainland, "I, Gurad, am only one of the four creators. And even if .. "You have killed us all, as long as the great Queen .."
At this point, the fat corpse suddenly revealed a horrified expression.
Following that, a huge ice-cold willpower suddenly appeared in the sky, descending from the sky.
In Zero's mind, the cold voice of a woman suddenly rang out. "You talk too much, Gurad .."
In the next moment, cracks appeared on the fat corpse's head with a "Pa La" sound and the cracks continued to spread. Gollard was like a walnut that had been smashed open with a hammer, suddenly exploding into pieces on the floor without further ado.
With the death of the fat corpse, the willpower immediately disappeared as if it had never appeared before.
Zero's face turned even paler, regardless of who the owner of the will was. Being able to travel across space far exceeded Agatha's abilities with regards to the Sensory Perception Domain.
Looking at the surroundings, everyone was happily fighting, no one seemed to have noticed the small episode on the battlefield.
The battle ended two hours later.
All of the sharp Bladed Corpse Demons were killed, and all of the biological cannons in the surroundings were ignited by the flames. The network of University City buildings, which seemed to contain a lot of grease, burned for two hours and still did not go out. The two-hour fire did not keep the fire burning under the neural network that had laid the fat corpse down, but it did spread out, dragging more places into the sea of fire.
By the time they left the academy city, the old interstate university had already turned into a huge fireball. The firelight could be seen even from a hundred kilometers away, especially since it was night. It was just that this time, the attack from the zombies was a huge one. With the mass gathering of the dead and the terrifying aura of the new zombies, all the mutated beasts had already escaped. Otherwise, they might have been attracted by the fire by now.
Zero was sitting on the ground with his back against a wall, but he didn't care. Feng walked over and handed him two tubes of nutrients and a water coagulant.
"Thank you."
Zero took it and opened one of the bottles, stuffing the contents into his mouth. After the nutrients entered the stomach from the esophagus, they began to burn like coal poured into a boiler. Nutrients decompose rapidly, reducing to a rich substance that is absorbed by the zero body.
One by one, his injuries were being healed.
Feng also sat down beside Ling Xiao. He crossed his legs and looked elsewhere. "That guy with eyes so high up in the sky actually didn't die. It was such a lucky fellow."
With a faint smile, Feng pointed at Beryl. After the surprise attack, Beryl was under much less pressure. But even so, after the battle ended, he lost another two Thunder Guards. Berrien himself was wounded, and his tactical suit was stained with blood.
"If I were you, captain, I would shoot a shot at that fatty, a bit off, and that fellow would also be on the way .." Maple made a necking motion.
An icy aura immediately enveloped the two of them. They looked to their left, where Beryl was sitting on a broken rock, wiping the blood off her body with a white handkerchief. This proud man was currently squinting his eyes at Feng. It was obvious that he had heard his words and was releasing an ice-cold killing intent.
"Damn, this ear is sharper than a dog's." Feng whispered.
With that, Beryl stood up. His hands hung down, but there were electric snakes jumping between them.
Maple could not be bothered about this. He was obviously not used to Beryl's attitude, so he intentionally provoked her.
In fact, his hands were already lightly resting on the two guns on the outside of his thighs. As far as Zero was concerned, as long as his hand touched the gun, he would be able to shoot at any time. In the months at Asgard, though, there had been some change to zero, but the core remained the same. That was a sense of recognition. Those who were acknowledged by nothing were considered brothers by him. As for those who disagreed, there was no difference between them and a living corpse.
Berrien just happened not to be on the zero-recognition list. The self-righteous man had already destroyed the mission twice in a row. Especially during the fight at the track and field, the sudden appearance of Berrien had made the fat corpse perform an unpredictable action. If it was not for the fact that it was killed in the end, the completion of this mission would still be unknown. Therefore, for someone like Beryl, Zero's endurance was very limited.
If Berrien chose the end of the war, Zero didn't mind sending the bullet into a certain part of his body. Zero would not kill him, but he wanted to give him an unforgettable lesson.
Thus, he sat there as he tidied up his wounds. In this way, it was even more difficult for Beryl to step down from the stage.
With his arrogance, he had never been played this way before. Unexpectedly, Agatha cut in and said flatly, "Captain Beryl, this is a battlefield, not your back garden. Now, I have to update Chief Avenot. If you want your superior to see you fight, then do it! "
Agatha's words were not only a warning to Beryl, but also a warning to Zero. Although she had a favorable impression of Zero, she was also against him using this method to directly provoke the war between the two sides.
Zero naturally understood. He didn't say anything and only smiled.
Feng whispered, "Okay, we can't fight anymore."
The electric snake in Beryl's hand jumped and quickly disappeared. He sat back on the broken rock and only looked at Feng and Zero with eyes full of hatred.
It was a look that made Zero uncomfortable, and he wondered if he could find a chance to make Beryl disappear. It was true that Beryl's attack power was immense, but to warriors like Zero and Feng, his weakness and power were just as formidable. If it was a one-on-one fight, Zero was confident that he would be injured in exchange for Beryl's life, if necessary.
Under Agatha's control, the personal intellectual brain quickly established a connection with Avenot. From the window, Avenot was full of energy and excitement. The destruction of the fat corpse, Gollard and the information terminal, gave Remter a decisive victory. After the loss of the information in the University City, the living corpse's command system clearly showed that there was an irreparable fault, causing it, who was constantly adjusting its tactics, to begin to act instinctively.
Zero knew that there were four more commanders in the sea of corpses. But those things didn't seem to have the intelligence to command a battle, but to act as a receiving node for a command, so they weren't of much help to the battle as a whole.
Avenot told everyone that the living corpses had basically been forced to retreat. Tomorrow, they would launch a counterattack. They wanted to clear out all the living corpses in the wilderness and complete this expedition mission.
Although he did not want to splash cold water on Avenot, Zero was obligated to tell the commander that their fight was not over yet. On the contrary, it had only just begun!
He gestured to Agatha and sat down in front of the intellectual brain. In a low voice, he told Avenot everything that had come out of Gollard's last sentence, including the sudden arrival of the nameless will.
As Avenot listened, the excitement faded from his face, replaced by an incomparable solemnity.
Ten minutes later, Carrion who was far away in Asgard appeared in the window of the intellectual brain.
"Looks like you can't rest, gentlemen." On the screen, Carrio took off the cigar he had been talking about and spoke in a very clear voice.
