Chapter 41: The Fire Is Extinguished
The army of ghouls came suddenly, without warning.
Due to the rebellion of the city guards, the ghouls lost their outer guardians, and the ghouls broke through the only two gates of Yoder City, the North Gate and the West Gate. They go deep into the belly along the Avenue of the City Gate and will soon spread throughout the city if no one stops them.
Knowing the news, the Eastern District team, which was the first to complete the rescue mission, that is, Zhou Yao's team, immediately rushed to the front line.
However, Zhou Yao did not follow the team to the area of the west gate, but broke away from the team and came to the north gate.
With such a rare opportunity to brush the task, how could Zhou Yao not seize the opportunity. It's one thing not to force it, but if you don't seize the opportunity in front of you, Zhou Yao can only think that his head is broken. So he rushed here alone to meet the army of ghouls.
If you are with the team members, you will not only have more scruples, but you will also be robbed.
According to Zhou Yao's visual inspection, there were more than 300 ghouls who had entered the north gate, densely accumulating the entire avenue. The follow-up troops are as endless as a sea of clouds, and it is estimated that they can break through five figures.
I have to say that in the area under the jurisdiction of Yod City, there are too many units at the village and town level, and the number of nearly a thousand is multiplied by the population base of nearly a thousand, and then it is about equal to the number of ghouls, and an army of one million is no longer a dream.
If so many ghouls attacked Yode City on a large scale, Zhou Yao felt that it was better to wash and sleep...... Just kidding, if you do wash and sleep, you will open your eyes the next day and see a ghoul with saliva on it asking you good morning.
Fortunately, no trace of the Dead Apostle has been found in Zhou Yao's field of vision, which is also the reason why Zhou Yao is confident that he will face the battle alone.
No matter how many ghouls there are, they are just cannon fodder, but if the number of Dead Apostles is stacked, it is not as simple as one plus one, especially now that it is night, it is an excellent stage for Dead Apostles.
"With all that said, let's start my war quickly."
Zhou Yao moved his body and entered the battle state.
"Stretch Moon Style - Gao Yue!"
The magic dress that Uncle Lei gave to Zhou Yao was working again, and this time he was still using one of the functions of the Moonbanding Style.
I saw that the wound bandage spread outward, and the coil formed a circle around the arm as the axis, and the red streamer emanated from the bandage, flowing through the arm in a spiral trajectory along the inside of the coil.
Zhou Yaoping raised his hands, pushed his palms forward to aim at the approaching ghouls, and the streamer converged into a light cluster of energy in his palm, and after accumulating for a short time, the light cluster in his right hand flashed with a strong light and shot out.
A red glow like a beam cannon illuminated the avenue, and a brilliant rainbow line slashed through the air, devouring a dozen ghouls.
The beam exploded into small explosions, and the scorching energy sputtered and spread, sweeping more ghouls in.
Before the smoke cleared, the beam cannon in Zhou Yao's left hand also followed, causing the same amount of damage.
This is the Gao Yue mentioned by Zhou Yao when he was proficient in fire escape, collecting magic power and converting it into energy of the same attribute, compressing it into one point and then suddenly exploding.
The advantage is that it is simple and rude, and it is not comparable to Ruyue, who strengthens the power of the magic bullet, and the disadvantage is that the consumption is also very large, in terms of the lethality caused, it consumes too much magic power, and only Zhou Yao's level of magic power can be released without scruples.
However, in the blink of an eye, Zhou Yao had already shot six shots, and the number of ghouls who died in his hands had exceeded two hundred, after all, the number was too dense, and even if he wanted to short, he didn't have that chance.
Zhou Yao eliminated quickly, and the ghouls replenished faster, and they continued to advance on the corpses of their companions one after another, and the number of Zhou Yao eliminated was only a drop in the bucket for them.
Time ticked by, and no matter how much Gao Yue eliminated, he couldn't achieve breakthrough results, and the ghouls went deeper and deeper. Although Zhou Yao felt like he was playing a zombie shooter, he also knew that he had to change his countermeasures when he saw this situation.
The most concise solution to deal with a dense and slow-moving live target is to strike a large-scale blow, and it just so happens that Zhou Yao also has a means that meets this condition in addition to Gaoyue - Fire Escape.
There are also strong and weak fire escapes, if it is described by grade, the phoenix fairy fire used by Zhou Yao is C-level, the fireball and ash accumulation burn are B-level, and of course, there is a stronger A-level.
Zhou Yao intends to use a kind of fire escape characterized by strong attack power and wide attack range, and the fire used by Madara Uchiha in the original work is extinguished!
Just use it, anyway, there are no residents nearby, even if you destroy this area, it's nothing.
"Fire escape-fire extinguished!!"
The flames were still spewed out from Zhou Yao's air, but the moment they spit out, Zhou Yao's whole person became smaller. The flames were so large that they swept away like a huge wave, not to mention a city gate avenue, and as the waves of fire advanced, the houses on both sides were destroyed into ruins.
The fire extinguished from Zhou Yao's side, devouring all the ghouls in his eyes, and still spread out from the city gate unabated, and it gradually subsided after a long time.
With just one blow, at least a thousand ghouls were turned into char.
After watching his results, Zhou Yao did not show a proud expression but sighed with a regretful expression.
"Although it's really strong, it feels like it's still a little less powerful than the one Madara used."
Zhou Yao recalled the scene in the animation, compared it and said.
Is it really because the power of the fire escape depends on the user's ability rather than its level? Think about it, it seems like that's true.
Zhou Yao opened the panel to check the progress of the unlock, and the number displayed on it was close to two thousand, which lifted his spirits, and he even forgot the fatigue of consuming a lot of mana.
"Lord, it's too late!"
Just when Zhou Yao was about to take advantage of the gap when the ghouls in the city were wiped out, he went out of the city to block the way of the army of ghouls behind, and the figure of the second dude flashed on the roof of the building behind him and came to Zhou Yao's body.
"Oh, two, welcome back." Zhou Yao smiled and said.
"I was misled by someone below, so I delayed a little time, and I ask the lord for forgiveness." Erdu knelt on one knee on the ground, looking like he bowed his head and admitted his mistake, which made Zhou Yao feel awkward in his heart.
Wow, sure enough, the Heroic Spirits I summoned are all such troublesome people, Sakiya is a little better over there, but this side has become a new trouble, alas, I'm going to have a headache in the future......
"It was I who left the team alone, and you weren't misled."
Zhou Yao thought helplessly, and while holding up the second stunned, he said.
"Speaking of which, since you're back, does that mean the operation over there has been done?"
Otherwise, the second stay will not come back.
"Indeed...... It's over, but it'......"
Looking at the second stunned and stopped, Zhou Yao didn't know that the action had failed.
Thinking of the safety of Uncle Lei and Warrier, Zhou Yao hurriedly asked. Fortunately, the second stay didn't give him the worst answer.
"Really? Only you, Uncle Ray and Uncle Warrill are back. ”
"Yes, it was obviously the task given to me by the main bus, but I failed to live up to the high expectations of the lord!"
"High hopes or something, what you said is too exaggerated, it is better for people to come back safely than anything else." Seeing the strong sense of self-blame on Erdu's face, Zhou Yao smiled bitterly and comforted.
There's nothing wrong with being rigid, but it's bothersome if it's too rigid.
However, the attack on the City Lord's Mansion would be a failure, which he really did not expect.
In his prediction, there should be no failure for the second fool who is a heroic spirit to participate in the war. It's just that Yod City, is there still a Dead Apostle Ancestor level existence?
"Did you meet a Dead Apostle who is stronger than you?" Zhou Yao asked.
"No, the enemy's general is not worth mentioning, but there is one called ...... The ability of the person designated by the seal is a little tricky. ”
"Seal designation? Well, that's not a name. Zhou Yao sweated for a moment and said.
He still knows something about seal designation, and of course he also knows how powerful and dangerous it is to be designated as a target of "seal designation".
Like the sister of one of the few magic envoys, Aoko Aosaki, the highest-ranking puppet envoy, Aozaki Orange.
There is also the Xuanwu Satsuki, who is evaluated as "the strongest verbal hypnotist in the world".
Thinking of the above two, Zhou Yao became interested in the seal designator in the mouth of the second dumbfounder.
"Is it a magician, or someone with special abilities?"
"It's a man who is confined to a seat, can make strong noise, can teleport, and can also release strange sound waves, and finally I don't know how to throw him out of the City Lord's Mansion."
Eryu counted the abilities she had experienced one by one, and Zhou Yao was amazed when she heard it.
According to the second fool, the person designated by this seal should have the ability to have a voice-related ability.
can also manipulate sound waves, and can teleport, and seems to have the ability to master space, no wonder it will make the second dumb tricky. It can only be said that the two of them have a bad relationship, the second is good at frontal combat, and the seal designator is good at special abilities.
I really didn't expect that the Dead Apostle named Odd still held such a powerful trump card in his hand, and it seemed that he was still underestimating him.
Originally, Zhou Yao thought that he had the combat power of the Heroic Spirit, and he would have the ability to walk sideways in the eleventh district, but he didn't want to slap him in the face in reality, and suddenly a force that could be blocked by a seal designator popped up. It can only be said that he thought too sweetly before
"So, the current City Lord's Mansion can't enter?"
Since the second duke can be teleported out inexplicably, it proves that the other party has the confidence that the second dull will not be able to enter again. How to say that the two stays are all heroic spirits, and it is impossible for the other party to have no scruples.
And Erdu's words also verified his idea.
"Now the City Lord's Mansion is wrapped in an invisible force, and there is no way to enter it again."
Well, this matter can only be discussed in the long run, and now the top priority is to deal with the army of ghouls outside, so Zhou Yao said.
"Since you're here, let's go together, just when you're tired of being long-range, let's play melee combat."
In fact, the main reason why he said this was because the bottomless pit of Fire Escape was too deep, and if he continued to use it, no amount of magic power would be enough.
As everyone knows, a fire extinguished should catch up with ten Gao Yue, fortunately, he has enough magic power, and a fire extinguished is also worth ten Gao Yue.
If you want to save mana, hand-to-hand combat is undoubtedly the best option.
Fighting with the melee master's second stay, Zhou Yao can also gain some experience, although he doesn't use a spear, but the second stay has more than just marksmanship.
Compared to Sakiya's practical and generalized fighting skills, Zhou Yao felt that Eryu could bring him more feelings.
But this was only Zhou Yao's prediction after all, and after he really stepped on the battlefield outside the city, he realized that he was thinking too much.
The reason is that the speed of the second stay is too fast, so fast that he can't see the movements clearly, and it is as fast as a gust of wind, and there are dead and injured everywhere it blows.
Zhou Yao had the intention to let Erdu's strength control point, but after thinking about it, he gave up.
It's better to go to the school park in the future to practice this skill......
