Chapter 385: Test your skills
Boom—
A large number of zombies were shrouded in a sea of fire, and strings of numbers jumped out from their heads. Many zombies fell directly to the ground and died. A small number of zombies that were not dead only had a trace of blood left.
The sound of the fireball explosion was actually not loud, but the flames and heat waves instantly attracted the attention of other zombies around.
“Ho ho…”
Many zombies screamed and walked towards the sea of fire, but the temperature of the flames was too high. They wanted to come in but did not dare to go in, so they could only wander outside.
There were also zombies with keen senses that discovered Wang Tao and others. They ignored the sea of fire and ran towards Wang Tao.
A sharp knife appeared in Wang Tao's hand, and he threw out several shock waves at the first group of zombies that rushed over. A large number of zombies were killed instantly. When all the zombies in front of him were killed, Wang Tao did not rush forward immediately. Instead of entering the group of corpses, he returned to the car. A simple-looking power armor was opening its hatch, waiting for its owner to enter.
Wang Tao only wanted to try power armor before, but either he didn't have time or he forgot. This power armor was given to him by Qu Shilin at the exchange exhibition hall yesterday.
Wang Tao still wanted to try out the actual combat capabilities of this powered armor, and the purpose of his mission was not to kill many zombies, but to cause a certain amount of noise to attract all the zombies here and save time for Cheng Yiyi and the others to escape. . So it doesn't matter the lethality or anything like that, as long as the movement is large.
And the movement of this attack-type power armor is definitely not small!
Although Wang Tao has never worn power armor in actual combat, he has learned the basic controls, and this control is not difficult, so there is no problem.
Hum—
Blue flames spurted out from behind the power armor and rushed directly towards the group of corpses running over.
During the sprint, many spikes and sharp blade-like cold weapons appeared on the arms and legs of Wang Tao's powered armor. And a six-barreled Gatling gun popped out from behind it.
Wang Tao held Gatling in his hand and pulled the trigger at the group of corpses.
Puff puff-
A tongue of fire shot out from the barrel and poured onto the zombies wantonly.
Although these zombies are not low in level, they are all ordinary zombies and cannot stop these bullets.
In the area where the tongues of fire passed, zombies fell in pieces like wheat.
Wang Tao alone blocked the attacks of countless zombies!
However, this good times did not last long, because the consumption of six-tube Gatling was very terrifying. Even though this was an attack-type powered armor with a lot of ammunition, it still couldn't withstand Wang Tao's shooting method of holding the trigger and not letting go, so it quickly ran out of bullets.
Wang Tao directly threw Gatlin to the ground, and several ordinary machine guns and grenade launchers popped out of him, and he started shooting and bombing at the group of corpses.
After these weapons ran out of bullets, Wang Tao had some submachine guns, pistols, and grenades in his hand... These ammunition were also quickly consumed.
“It feels good, but it doesn’t last long…”
Wang Tao's voice sounded in Qu Shilin's headset.
“…With your consumption method, no matter how much ammunition you have, it won’t be enough!”
Qu Shilin was a little helpless to complain.
Powered armor can carry a lot of ammunition, and attack-type powered armor has the largest ammunition capacity among all powered armors... So theoretically, Wang Tao's powered armor should carry a lot of ammunition, but no matter how much it is, there is a certain amount.
Not to mention anything else, the rate of fire of a six-barreled Gatling gun can reach up to five to six thousand rounds per minute! Under normal circumstances, they would adjust the rate of fire. A few hundred rounds per minute is already pretty good. However, Wang Tao just used the highest rate of fire! There were only a few thousand rounds of ammunition in total, and he used up all the ammunition with a few pulls of the trigger.
With Wang Tao's style of play that starts with a rush and doesn't consider logistics at all, no matter how much ammunition he carries, he won't be able to withstand it!
ifier
Wang Tao coughed dryly.
What does he like about power armor? Of course it’s this kind of powerful mobile firepower!
It would be pointless if you shoot a gun and hold off Sosou.
Of course, this is also because Wang Tao's own strength gives him a lot of confidence, and his combat effectiveness even wearing power armor is worse than not wearing it - after all, he can't use his powers.
So he doesn't care about the consumption. At worst, he can leave the power armor and directly lift the "seal"!
But no matter what, after wearing the power armor, the feeling of pouring firepower really made Wang Tao feel good.
“It would be nice if the power armor could be made larger and have more ammunition…”
While muttering in his heart, Wang Tao took out a chain saw knife that came with the power armor.
Chain saw blades are similar to chain saws. One side of the blade has sharp and ferocious teeth that rotate when driven by a motor.
This chain saw knife is definitely not the most powerful melee weapon, but it is definitely one of the most cost-effective melee weapons overall, along with the electric knife.
Other melee weapons require good raw materials to make. If the materials are not good, the weapons will not be good either. However, a chain saw knife can use relatively ordinary materials to cause a lot of damage and is very cost-effective.
As for the shortcomings, it may be that it is too big and too heavy. Even if it is used by a person with super powers for a long time, it is not comfortable. Power armor is very suitable for use, after all, it can bear heavy weight. So now many power armors are equipped with chain saws or electric knives.
Of course, the chain saw knife on Wang Tao's power armor is not made of ordinary material. It is still much stronger than an ordinary chain saw knife.
Although to be honest, using a chainsaw to kill zombies is far less efficient than Wang Tao's own weapons, this thing is just like pouring bullets, it's really fun. The feeling of watching a chain saw knife violently sawing zombies into pieces is an adrenaline rush.
Wang Tao felt that he made the right move in getting this offensive power armor. It is great for both long-range attack and melee combat!
Just when Wang Tao was slaughtering zombies wantonly, he heard a "rumbling" sound and charged towards Hongbin and came to Wang Tao's side. The zombies passing by on the road were smashed into pieces by him!
Xiang Hongbin is not as big as the power armor, but he is still very burly, especially the cold mechanical parts on his body, which look like a mini version of the power armor. It goes well with Wang Tao's powered armor.
“Haha, Lao Wang, let’s see who kills more!”
Laughing at Hongbin.
Although Wang Tao has just killed a large number of zombies, except for fireballs, they were basically killed with thermal weapons, and the thermal weapons were out of bullets. So Xiang Hongbin felt that even if he didn't have any hot weapons and just started killing zombies now, he still might be able to defeat Wang Tao! Of course, the premise is that Wang Tao does not leave the power armor. If Wang Tao left the power armor and used the group attack ability, he would definitely be incomparable.
"good!"
Wang Tao responded, holding up the chain saw and hacked to death two zombies.
Although he has exhausted all the ammunition, this is an offensive power armor after all, and the cold weapons on it are of good quality. At least it can kill these ordinary zombies without any problem. In addition, power armor also has a certain degree of defense and can ignore the attacks of many ordinary zombies, so rushing into a zombie group is basically a massacre.
Xiang Hongbin was not to be outdone. Two sharp long knives with a full sense of technology popped out of his robotic arm. Then he saw the long knives rotating like electric fans, and the zombies he encountered were cut in half.
A true battlefield meat grinder!
A large-caliber pistol appeared in Xiang Hongbin's other hand, and he shot at the zombies with residual blood that had not been hanged from time to time.
“These two people…”
In the car, Qu Shilin was a little stunned.
She felt that no one else needed to take action, just these two people could stop the horde of corpses, right?
However, as soon as Qu Shilin had this idea, she discovered that the movement made by Wang Tao and Xiang Hongbin alerted more zombies. Looking at the zombies rushing towards here like a black tide, Qu Shilin's scalp went numb. She knew about the corpse tide, but she had never seen it. After all, scientists like them are well protected and will not be allowed to visit the front line in person.
“Sit tight!”
Han Rui yelled, then turned the steering wheel hard, making the car turn around, ready to evacuate at any time.
The people at level 3 stayed in the car. They couldn’t be said to be useless in this kind of battle. They could only be said to be not that useful and would most likely be a hindrance. So they didn’t get out of the car and just waited in the car.
Immediately afterwards, He Jijun and others also rushed into the group of corpses. With the strength of their awakened beings, they were also slaughtered when facing these zombies.
Wang Tao didn't look much. He focused on the situation of the newly awakened people like Lu Yingfeng.
In terms of lethality alone, apart from Xiang Hongbin, Lu Yingfeng is the strongest.
Her sharp edge is very useful in such large-scale battles. One cut will cause heads to fall off. And most importantly, she is the most elegant of them all!
The sharpness combined with her family's sword skills is like dancing on the battlefield, elegant and deadly!
Not to mention Wang Tao, even women like Lan Yulian and Ding Yuqin had their eyes lit up.
As for the others... Xu Xiaojun's lethality is relatively average. After all, his awakening is for spiritual defense, and his attack power has also been improved, but compared with other awakened people, it is not much.
Lu Gang's lethality is pretty good. Although he has always said that he prefers long-range sniping, this does not mean that he is weak in close combat. Now combined with the awakening of this system, these zombies are also massacred.
Nie Siyan and Gao Hua are both poisoners, but their poisons are different. Nie Siyan's poisonous needle can kill an ordinary zombie instantly, but it can only kill one instantly. Such group battles are not suitable for her.
Gao Hua is more suitable for this situation. The poisonous gas he releases is a continuous range of damage. The more zombies are around, the more valuable his poison will be. When the poisonous gas accumulates to a certain level, one detonation can kill a large number of zombies instantly.
Under normal circumstances, zombies will not enter these poisonous gases. Even if they do, they will leave. After all, zombies have certain instincts. But there are more zombies now, and the zombies are so crowded that they can only rush forward and cannot retreat. So this allows Gao Hua to use his poison gas ability very well...
Ten awakened ones, plus lightning, black snake and other fourth-level creatures, stood in a row and directly blocked the tide of corpses!
“This is the Awakened One…so strong!”
In the car, Qu Shilin sighed again.
She has never seen so many awakened people fighting at the same time. Just relying on these ten people and beasts can block thousands of zombies. The perspective effect is extremely shocking!
If everyone in the base can awaken, the zombie tide will be no big deal—no, you don’t have to awaken all of them. Even if only a small number of people can awaken, you can probably counterattack the zombie tide directly!
But this kind of thing is just a thought. The difficulty of awakening a small number of people is as difficult as going to heaven. After all, she is unable to awaken due to her status and financial resources, let alone most people...
As time goes by, there are more and more zombies. Although Wang Tao and his party blocked the tide of corpses, they obviously could not block it forever. Manpower sometimes runs out, but zombies are endless!
Seeing that a large number of fourth-level elite zombies, fifth-level ordinary zombies, and even fifth-level elite zombies appeared, Wang Tao knew that he could no longer resist. If fifth-level lord zombies appear again in this situation, they will be in danger and should retreat.
Wang Tao tried to contact Cheng Yiyi, but the radio could not be contacted since the beginning of the battle. In the end of the world, radio does not always work and will be subject to various interferences. But luckily we got in touch before... I can only say that they were lucky but not that good...
So Wang Tao said:
“We will retreat in one minute!”
Giving Cheng Yiyi and the others one more minute should be enough. If they still can't evacuate after such a long time, it's Cheng Yiyi's problem.
"good!"
…
the other side.
When Wang Tao informed Cheng Yiyi that he would start attracting zombies in one minute, Cheng Yiyi was a little confused.
She believed that Wang Tao could come, but she didn't expect that Wang Tao would come so quickly. She estimates it will take another hour or two...
But now was not the time to be doubtful, she immediately shouted on all channels.
“Advisor Wang Tao has arrived with reinforcements, everyone is ready, we will evacuate in one minute!”
——
As soon as these words were spoken, one could instantly feel the soldiers' repressed excitement. Although they were well-disciplined, they could not hide their excitement after knowing that they could survive.
“Is he really here?”
Lin Kaiyang couldn't believe it, but he also heard the radio call just now. It was not fake.
“Here we come, we are ready to retreat!”
"yes!"
A minute later, they didn't hear any fighting, but they could clearly feel a lot more footsteps outside.
The zombies were attracted away!
It’s Wang Tao!
Furthermore, they couldn’t see or hear Wang Tao’s movements, which meant that Wang Tao was a certain distance away from them, so they could run away with confidence—if Wang Tao was too close to them, it would be difficult for them to run, but now this distance is just right!
But for the sake of safety, Cheng Yiyi waited a little longer. When the footsteps outside were almost gone, and when various gunshots and explosions came from the distance, she roared decisively.
“Everyone, come with me!”
Cheng Yiyi took the lead and was the first to rush out, followed by deputy army commanders Lin Kaiyang and Pei Hai, followed by the others.
There are still a lot of zombies outside, but there are far fewer than before.
Everyone did not use guns, but used melee weapons to attack, trying not to make too much noise. But even so, after they cleaned up the zombies around them, there were still many zombies in the distance who heard the noise and rushed towards them.
“Look for our car! Don’t fight!”
Cheng Yiyi said goodbye to the war, but she hesitated when she looked at the place where gunshots were heard not far away.
Should we meet up with Wang Tao and deal with the zombies together, or should we just ignore Wang Tao and leave?
“Legion Commander, we...”
Not only was she hesitant, Pei Hai also looked at Cheng Yiyi.
“We can’t stay, the tide of corpses will be around us soon. We have to leave quickly and stay away from Advisor Wang, otherwise Advisor Wang’s efforts will be in vain!”
At this time, Lin Kaiyang said calmly.
Hearing this, Cheng Yiyi gritted his teeth.
"let's go!"
She immediately directed the team to leave in the opposite direction to Wang Tao.
Before leaving, she contacted Wang Tao again, but the radio was still unable to reach him.
“Wang Tao, you must live! I’m waiting for you at the base!”
