[Previous Chapter] [Table of Contents] [Next Chapter] I will work even harder and write even better plots to repay everyone!)

A depressing atmosphere permeated from the exit of the base. Zero and a few other members of Thunderclap were already assembled, and even the arrogant Berrion was now obediently silent.

Avenot, on the other hand, was using his communicator to issue various commands to the troops on the ground. When the last order was given, he turned back to his men and said briefly, "I hope to see you again. "Now..."

"Charge!"

The moment the commander shouted out the last word, the base's armored door suddenly rose up. The moment the door was lifted, a small crack appeared on the ground. The deafening sound immediately shattered the tranquility of the base.

Before the door could fully open, Zero had already moved.

Carrying a series of afterimages, he was the first to rush to the side of the door. Just as he was about to slam into the door, Zero suddenly lowered his body and slid out through the gap between the doors. Following closely behind him were the others. With a roll, they were sent flying off the ground. Looking up, another wave of bombardment was being launched by a missile armoured vehicle. The small missiles were like flaming snakes that shot into the sky as they sped away in the blink of an eye.

Moments later, after Remus had set up his new defensive line, fireballs exploded in the sea of corpses one after another. Amidst the flames, the living corpses fell and cleared out a vacuum area right away. But very quickly, they were filled with living corpses.

After the missile bombardment, the artillery tanks roared together. The rapid-fire heavy artillery from the off-road vehicles had already been installed behind the cover of the defense line. They resonated with the artillery as streams of metal cut into the sea of corpses. Wherever they passed by, flesh and blood would fly everywhere!

Based on the current situation, there should be no problems with Remus' defense line. However, the butcher and the Ripper had yet to appear. The zombie that looked like a biological bomb was also nowhere to be seen. Right now, the ones attacking Remus were ordinary living corpses, and once those high-level monsters appeared, the situation was not as optimistic.

But right now, he didn't need to think about these matters. He had an even more important mission to complete.

After a brief look at the battlefield, he turned around and, with the rest of the group, walked around Remter and stabbed the southwest side of the ruined city of Kaddam like a dagger.

The sounds of the cannons and the shrieks of the living corpses gradually faded away, revealing the endless ruins in front of Zero. The city was like a rotting corpse, and the roads were like dried blood vessels, with zero lines running through them like maggots on a rotting corpse.

But Zero's mood was relaxed. The wilderness was his world. Back in the wilderness, he was like a fish back in the water. Unknowingly, he seemed to have become one with the wind, the shadows, and the air. At this time, Ling Chen had lost all hope, sadness, and joy. He was like a bystander, looking coldly at the world from the point of view of the Creator.

In the eyes of the vast world, what they did was simply meaningless actions. It was like looking at an ant. No matter how loud it was, in the eyes of a human, it was nothing more than a trivial matter.

Behind him, Agatha began to look confused. Agatha was a person with the ability to perceive the domain. For someone with this ability, regardless of which aspect they excelled in, their basic ability to sense was extremely sensitive.

In Agatha's perception, zero disappeared. This wasn't the disappearance of his body, but rather his aura, his life, and other characteristics that had already completely surpassed Agatha's senses. He was running in front of Agatha, but to her, the place was empty.

Shadow Wanderer.

The phrase floated in Agatha's mind. Shadow Wanderer was the name of a high-level occupation, and was also where the Windwalker would advance to. If nothing unexpected happened, he could show that he had zero talent in stealth and could at least become a Shadow wanderer!

A high class meant that the ability rank was at least the eighth step. Even in Asgard, a powerhouse of the eighth step was already an important figure. And most people, their potential often wouldn't be able to break through the most crucial level, and would stay at or below the seventh step. At least Agatha herself, her potential was only at the seventh step in one ability test.

However, with the current technology, the accuracy of this type of test was extremely high. There shouldn't be any mistakes.

Thinking of this, Agatha was a little envious of Zero.

Zero naturally did not know what Agatha was thinking. He was in a very strange state right now. It was as if he had become the air, fusing with the world. The incoming wind, the shadows under the ruins, and all sorts of subtle sounds filled his ears, giving him countless data. The data merged together in his mind and formed a circular space with zero as its origin, with a diameter of about 300 meters.

In this space, a three-dimensional model of the ground is constructed from data. It was similar to Anthony's spiritual scan, but Zero had used the terrifying processing ability of his brain to observe the data in such a 3D model.

When this model appeared in his mind, Zero finally understood why he had the feeling of being a bystander. It felt strange to be in and out of the world.

However, at this moment, a few new models appeared in the 3D model.

He stopped abruptly and made a gesture of hiding. He was the first to fall into an abandoned building on the street, and everyone else, including Agatha, rushed into the building.

And this sudden movement caused the model in Zero's mind to collapse and shatter. Zero also lost the feeling of being a bystander. He was like a man in a trance, suddenly pulled back to reality. Zero knew that this was the reason why his processing ability was not stable yet. Once this ability was stabilized, 3D modeling would be able to exist for a long period of time and the scope of observation might be even larger.

The higher the rank of the user, the more astounding the ability of their brain to process data. As a result, every high-level esper was an outstanding intellectual. It was just that due to their different hobbies and talents, the areas that they tended to focus on were also different.

Due to his talent for sniping, it was not surprising that his brain tended to observe the environment while processing the data. Just as they had hidden themselves, a group of living corpses appeared at the corner of the street. The reason why they were said to be a team, rather than just a few, was because the living corpses displayed something that could not possibly exist in them.

Order.

They walked side by side, the two zombies in front of them observing the environment in a vigilant manner, while the living corpses on both sides and at the end of the line held crude weapons in their hands. No matter how crude the rusty machetes or the damaged throats were, in Zero's memory, it was very rare for normal living corpses to see a weapon in their hands. They were more accustomed to ripping the soft bodies of humans apart with their sharp nails and fangs, except, of course, for those of the Cossacks who had kept part of their instincts alive.

After all, in the large group of living corpses, their owners were only commoners.

In the middle of the team of zombies was a bomb corpse. It was laughable to see a living corpse as thin as a hungry ghost with a big belly, especially when it crawled on the ground like a beast with its hands and feet on the ground. However, everyone knew the consequences of being caught by it, so no one could laugh.

There was no obvious order in the living corpses, they only had a vague sense of swarm. However, when there was a bomb corpse in the middle of the group, the ordinary zombies on the outside were like guards carrying weapons and equipment, carefully moving forward.

Order implies restraint, but restraint does not come from bomb corpses. These one-time use biological weapons did not possess that kind of dignity and intelligence. Therefore, the restriction came from an existence behind them. Whatever it was, it was the target of zero.

As for this party of useless living corpses, Zero had no intention of alarming them. But at this moment, even though he wasn't an Elemental Domain user, he could feel that the atmosphere behind him was rapidly gathering energy.

Zero suddenly looked behind him. It was Beryl stretching out his hands, blue arcs of electricity dancing in his hands!

The zombie in the middle of the team of zombies outside the building seemed to have sensed something and turned its head, letting out a sharp scream towards the direction of the building.

"Hurry up and finish the battle!" At the same time, he went out through the window.

As he fell to the ground, two balls of lightning dragged the electric snake out of the window. The reason why all the hairs on his body stood on end was not because it was dangerous, but because when the lightning flew past him, the remaining electric charges in the air would naturally cause the hair to stand on end.

The lightning drew an arc in the air from different directions and finally exploded in the middle of the group of zombies. The annihilation of the two masses of energy formed something like a small black hole, which dragged the living corpse along with it, unable to escape the range of the explosion. Flames carried electric serpents with them as they soared into the sky, becoming the most obvious form of fireworks. Behind the firework, a figure could be seen flying.

The bomb corpse was also affected by the explosion of the two lightning bolts that Beryl had released. However, only a small part of its body had been burned; it was not a serious injury. It also quickly determined that the attacker's strength was far above its own, or perhaps it was undefeatable without enough companions, so it chose to escape.

It quickly climbed up the wall of a building and reached the roof in the blink of an eye. As long as it passed the building, the spiderweb-like network of cities would be its best refuge from danger.

As the bomb corpse jumped over the fence, there was a strange vibration in the air.

In the next moment, the bomb corpse's head and chest were also turned into powder. Its body stayed in the air for a moment before falling straight down onto the broken floor of the rooftop. Blood and internal organs flowed out from the wound, staining the grayish-brown ground red. The next moment, a dull gunshot rang out and resounded like thunder.

Putting the giant away, Zero said calmly, "Move him away immediately, at the same time …"

He looked at Beryl and quietly said, "We need to talk!"

Lord of War was only the start of the battle. The rest of the website is pirated, if you think the novel is good, I hope you can support the author by coming to the Crossroads Chinese website.]

Ten minutes after they left, hundreds of zombies and a few bomb corpses appeared at the scene. The bomb corpse screamed at the ordinary zombies, as if it was giving out some kind of order. As for the normal living corpses, they quickly dispersed and used their snouts to sniff something on the ground. A few of the corpses came to the corner of the building where the few of them were hiding.

In the eyes of the living corpse, there was a round black ball. There was an electronic screen on the ball, and the numbers in red letters jumped back and forth on the screen. When the numbers returned to zero, the small building suddenly exploded. The flames and gales completely destroyed all traces of the zero and the others' existence.

Two blocks away from the site of the explosion, Zero and the others were in a half-collapsed bank business hall. The rubble and debris in the middle of the hall had already been cleared to the four sides. Three squads had formed a circle, with Zero and Berrien standing in the center.

"What do you mean, Asian?" Berrien tilted his head, his eyes disdainful.

"I don't think you understand, Captain Berrien." Zero's tone was flat, and he sounded exactly the same as usual. However, those who were familiar with him, such as Feng He Su, could hear the bone chilling, unassuming, and unremarkable icy-like bone-piercing aura in his calm, wind-like voice.

He was truly infuriated.

"There is no need to kill that group of living corpses. On the contrary, your reckless actions may cause our actions to fail. Can you bear the consequences? "

Berrien suddenly stepped forward until he was standing beside Zero. He was two points taller than Zero, so Berrion looked down on him with a lot of energy.

Zero was completely unmoved. He looked at the white man with a calm and cold gaze.

The look from Zero made Berrien feel uncomfortable. And Zero's attitude made him want to turn Zero into a pile of mincemeat.

Of course, he couldn't do that. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't do it in front of so many of his comrades. Whether it is Doomhammer or Asgard, it is absolutely forbidden to kill your comrades. Otherwise Anthony didn't have to run away from Asgard, and reason told Beryl he couldn't, so he squeezed out a sentence: "I don't have to report to you what I'm doing. "If you like, you can be an obedient dog by Avenot's side!"

Zero's eyelids jumped.

At this moment, Feng's voice rang out, "Forget it, captain. It would be a waste of time to talk to an idiot. It's just a waste of our saliva."

Maple shrugged, but the next moment, Beryl's team members pointed their guns at him. Feng smiled, not even bothering to look at the guns aimed at his head.

With a sneer, Beryl turned around and raised his right hand, which was dancing with electric arcs. "What did you just say? I didn't hear you. "

"It seems that not only are you an idiot, you're also a slut. You'll only be willing to be cursed twice." Maple did not reserve the venom for Berrien.

Beryl raised his hand and formed a lightning bolt. He grinned: "It seems you can only sleep in the hospital for a while. I hope you don't turn into a plant!"

By the time Berrien raised his hand, Sue was already touching the hilt of the heavy alloy sword, and the muscles beneath the vest were quivering, a sign that they were ready to strike at any moment. As for Berrien's men, they gripped their guns nervously.

In the hall, the atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.

Just as Berrien was about to lose his mind, a cold gun barrel blocked the back of his head, causing him to calm down slightly.

"Want to kill me? "Captain?" Berrien asked with a cold smile.

With one hand holding the golden warhawk, Zero pointed the gun at the back of Beryl's head. "Kill you? Sorry, as my companion said, you are an idiot. Killing an idiot didn't make me feel that much of a sense of accomplishment, but being with an idiot made me feel even more troubled. So from this moment on, you and I will act separately. You can do whatever you want as long as you don't get in the way of my work. "

Zero looked at Agatha and asked lightly: "What do you mean?"

Agatha smiled sweetly. "It looks like it will be more fun to travel with you."

"Then, let's go." Zero said lightly, but the gun did not move away.

Maple didn't seem to see the guns pointed at his head. He even whistled at Beryl and headed for the exit. Except for Beryl's team, everyone else had left the bank. Zero was in charge of cutting him off. He stepped back, but the muzzle of his gun didn't move at all. As soon as Beryl made any movement, he was met by a hot bullet.

Beryl possessed unparalleled destructive power, but when it came to defense, she was no different from an ordinary person. Thus, he could only silently allow Zero to leave. He waited until the freezing coldness that had been aimed at him disappeared. Only then did he slowly turn around, but Zero and the others had already left.

Beryl laughed instead of getting angry, but his fingers clenched into fists. There were electric snakes leaping on his fists.

Walking through the deserted streets, Feng walked to the side of Zero and smiled: "Captain, I didn't think that you would say such harsh words."

Zero said disapprovingly, "It's just that someone can teach you well."

The smile on Feng's face immediately froze, but Zero ignored him and continued forward. A moment later, Feng's voice came from behind Ling Xiao: "Someone wouldn't be pointing at me right? "I don't remember ever teaching Captain anything …"

At the end of his words, Feng's voice became a groan, but it was only an elbow hitting him in the stomach. This strike would not injure him, but the energy vibrations within his body made Feng feel uncomfortable.

"Shut up, you idiot! Do you not find us ostentatious enough? " Su Su said indifferently.

Maple walked past Maple and gave him a sidelong glance. That gaze was like looking at an idiot. Suddenly realizing this, Feng almost shouted out loud, but when he felt the killing intent inadvertently radiating from Su Su, he immediately shut his mouth.

Seeing the three of them, Agatha who was walking beside Zero pursed her lips into a smile. "You have a few pretty good companions."

Zero nodded. "You look good when you smile."

Agatha was slightly stunned, and then she said: "Speaking of which, the times I laugh today is much more than the past."

"Then smile more." He quickened his pace.

Looking at his back, Agatha seemed to have thought of something, and two red clouds flew up on her face, but then dispersed. But this was seen by Johnny and Yona, and the two men exchanged glances, feeling that their strongest rival had appeared.
