Chapter 278: A Test ( 6 )
Meanwhile, the leaders exited their vehicles and walked over. Standing not far from Jin Xuyan, one of the Colonels asked, "Captain Jin, are you planning to rest here?"
Ignoring him, Jin Xuyan turned to the General and said, "General, you and your people can wait here temporarily. We will come back to pick you up once we are done."
The General looked at the abandoned building with a frown but said nothing. Ten minutes later, Qin Luzi emerged with the rest of the team.
"Captain, the building is clear," he reported.
Jin Xuyan gave a nod and said, "General, you and your team should stay inside and don't come out unless it's necessary."
"I understand," the General replied calmly.
With that, Jin Xuyan glanced at his team before heading back to his car and driving off, followed closely by the others. Sitting in the passenger seat, Jiao Lizhi leaned back with her eyes closed.
She didn't care about the leaders. At that moment, she was inside her spiritual space, watering medicinal herbs with pond water using her consciousness.
Half an hour later, Qin Luzi's voice came through the walkie-talkie, "Captain, the zombies are up ahead."
"We will proceed on foot from here," Jin Xuyan replied.
The cars were parked along the road. After everyone got out, Jiao Lizhi stored their armored vehicles and Gu Shaoze's cars in her space.
Before leaving, Jin Xuyan said, "Gu Shaoze, you and your girlfriend will stay in the middle of the formation with the children. Without my order, none of you are allowed to leave the formation."
Realizing that their test had begun, Gu Shaoze and his team responded in unison, "Understood."
With them positioned in the center, Qin Luzi and the Wen brothers led the group at the front, while Jiao Lizhi and Jin Xuyan took the rear to guard against any sudden threats. The rest of the members positioned themselves on the sides.
Twenty minutes later, they heard the roars of zombies not far from their location. Listening closely, Jin Xuyan scanned the surroundings and said, "The zombie horde is indeed moving toward the border. Wen Mo, Wen Kai, block the road."
"Understood."
Upon receiving the order, the two clapped their hands and pressed them to the ground. In the next moment, a metal wall began to rise from the earth. As the wall grew taller, it extended outward to either side.
Gu Shaoze and his team were stunned, watching in disbelief with wide eyes.
While they thought that the Wen brothers' abilities were impressive, Wen Mo and Wen Kai, in fact, had already found a way to combine their abilities and maximize their effectiveness.
There was metal in the soil, and with Wen Kai adding more metal to it, Wen Mo could manipulate the existing metal and the added metal to create the metal wall.
Even after constructing a three-meter-high wall, two meters thick and stretching over two hundred meters, they showed no signs of exhaustion.
Ten minutes later, the Wen brothers took out golden-colored crystal cores from their pockets and began absorbing the energy while continuing to build the wall.
Since the zombie horde was estimated at over 200,000, they had to extend the wall to a full 500 meters to block it off.
Twenty minutes later, they finally stood up and reported, "Captain, it's done."
Jin Xuyan nodded and wrapped an arm around his girlfriend's waist before leaping to the top of the wall. Seeing this, the rest of the team jumped up one by one.
Standing below the wall, Gu Shaoze and Rong Mo'er looked at the children, then carried them up. Once atop the wall, they could finally see the black dots in the distance.
The moment the children saw the sheer number of zombies, their faces turned pale, and they trembled in fear.
Noticing their fear, Jiao Lizhi said, "Don't worry. Even if you can't kill them, you won't be eaten as long as you stay here."
"I will kill them," Fu Leizhen replied stubbornly after hearing her words.
Seeing the determination in his eyes, Jiao Lizhi said, "It will be a long battle. If you are tired, take a rest. Overusing your energy will only make you become useless in a prolonged battle."
Just as she finished speaking, Qin Luzi called out, "They are here."
And with that, he leapt from the wall and flew toward the zombies. Seeing this, Gu Shaoze and his team were shocked.
"Brother Shaoze, he is flying!" Xu Danyu exclaimed with awe and shock.
Xiao Qi raised his chin proudly and said, "Flying is just one of Brother Luzi's skills. Don't be surprised when you see what else we can do."
As his words fell, they watched Qin Luzi hovering above the zombie horde.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
In the next moment, a series of explosions erupted, killing large groups of zombies instantly.
"Roar!!"
The noise stirred the horde. No longer moving slowly, the zombies began rushing forward excitedly. Seeing this, Qin Luzi flew back toward the wall.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As he landed, he snapped his fingers and more explosions detonated behind him. Once he stood on the wall, he said, "These zombies were too slow, so I had to lure them in."
Xiao Qi laughed and said, "Brother Luzi, you are the best!"
"Roarr!!"
As the zombies were within five meters of the metal wall area, the team pulled out their airguns and began shooting.
Pop! Pop! Pop!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Seeing this, Gu Shaoze snapped out of his daze and said, "Everyone, focus on killing the ones nearby!"
"Yes, Brother!" the children replied in unison.
As the battle started, Li Qixuan watched Qin Luzi thoughtfully. He hadn't expected a wind-type ability user to be this powerful. He was able to kill so many zombies with just a snap of his fingers.
Noticing Li Qixuan standing still, Chen Zhiyi nudged him and asked, "Brother Li, what are you doing standing there in a daze? If you don't start killing, you will be the one washing clothes later."
