Chapter 137: Heavy losses
The zombies behind quickly caught up, and the dense zombies directly overwhelmed several severed abilities.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
It didn't take long for three violent explosions to blow up the group of zombies that overwhelmed them!
Due to the lessons brought by Jiang Manting, after being infected by the T-XIP9 factor, the ability will directly become a second-order mutant.
The various abilities worn by these A-class abilities will explode directly after the wearer is infected with the T-XIP9 factor, in order to eliminate the already infected abilities.
If you don't do this, ordinary C-class abilities will become second-order mutants after infection, not to mention these A-class abilities, and the situation here in the Northwest Region will be even more uncontrollable.
In desperation, this decision was made.
After the destruction of a group of ability squads on this side, on the other side, the situation of the same ability team at this time is not optimistic.
Instead of encountering the vines of cataclysmic creatures, or the special zombies, they encountered black orbs that fell on the streets.
Although they all wore the helmets they made, they didn't seem to have much effect at such a close distance.
After someone accidentally bursts a sphere, the black gas emitted from it, that person just takes a puff, and it is still filtered by a helmet.
In a matter of seconds, he fell to the ground and died, and then the body exploded.
To the distraction of the other four A-class adepts, these helmets were able to filter out the gas.
However, at such a close distance, it doesn't seem to have much effect.
"Spread out! Don't get too close to those black orbs! ”
Since you can also get infected at close range, you can stay away and remove some of the fabric to tie it to the filter of the helmet.
This effectively filters out the black gases.
Bang ~ bang ~ bang ~
Several black spheres burst one after another, and the black gas on the street became thicker and thicker, and these things seemed to perceive each other, and after one of them burst, the first one followed closely behind.
They don't have anything to do with it.
"Hurry up and use your abilities! Otherwise, we will die here sooner or later! ”
Four Adepts used their abilities at the same time, and one of the Wind Elemental Adepts directly blew away the black gas in the air.
However, it didn't have much effect, and it didn't take long for the gases to recondense.
Thankfully, it didn't make much of a difference, and the Adeptus only had to reuse his wind element until they left the street.
"Keep going! It's safer than anywhere else, so maybe we'll be able to get the job done! ”
That being said, everyone knew in their hearts that relying on a few of them alone would not be of much use at all, unless it was to bring back the black orb on the ground.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to take anything, just look at the vines of the catastrophic creatures, and the sheer size would be completely beyond their reach.
All of them were wiped out, and they didn't know if they could take a bit of the organization from above.
The Wind Elemental Adept at the front suddenly stopped as he walked, and he froze in place as he looked at the scene in front of him.
"What? Let's keep going! ”
The leader of the team shouted at the team with some dissatisfaction, but in the next second he understood why he had stopped.
The ground not far ahead, densely packed with those black spheres, basically has no place to stay.
If they accidentally blow one up, they're going to have to finish it.
"Shall we go back?"
"We have no way back......"
Turning his head to look behind him, the black gas that had been blown away behind him condensed again, and when he looked up at the air, there were quite a few black spheres floating down towards the ground.
They are now in a dilemma, and they will die if they go forward, and they will most likely die in the future.
"What to do...... I don't want to die here yet......"
"My family is still waiting for me to go back, and I'm their pride!"
"Don't go crazy!"
One of the Paranormal suddenly shouted in a somewhat insane manner, and then was awakened by a direct slap.
"Who doesn't want to live now? Hell knows there are so many of these things here, and who knows if the props the Federation gives us won't work at all? ”
"Who the would be here if they all knew? Isn't it all because they all have families? There is a high probability that we will die here today, but as soon as we die, their lives will be nourished. ”
"Who of us here isn't in their 30s? Most of them also have wives and sons, and if they die, their lives will be better, have you forgotten what the Federation said at the time? ”
"Anyone who dies in the field will have no worries about food and clothing for their immediate blood relatives, and they don't need to work."
As these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
That's right, they go out to do tasks because of this, although they can't refuse the task themselves, but this compensation is indeed compensated to everyone's heart.
Even if they are alive and don't come out to do tasks for the Federation, what can they do to take care of their families?
Take your own abilities?
Can that be eaten as a meal?
"In that case, why don't you fight it......"
The Wind Elemental Adeptus pointed his palm at the black orbs on the ground in front of him, and the wind blades condensed from his side and flew towards those orbs.
After the wind blades smashed into the black orbs on the ground, the orbs exploded one after the other.
A thick black gas also covered the entire street in an instant.
"The other Adepts keep up!"
Except for the one who blew himself up after being infected, the rest of these abilities are all elemental mastery type abilities.
Although there is only a single element, when combined with each other, the combat power of these abilities is still considerable.
One of them gathered a ball of fire with one hand and threw it at the black gas.
In an instant, the gas ignited, and the flames filled the entire street.
On the other hand, the ability to control the water elemental on the side uses the ability to protect a few people from being accidentally injured by the flames.
After a set of procedures, the remaining one of the abilities waved lightly, and the black gas ignited by the flames exploded instantly.
After the shockwave, several of the Adepts looked up ahead, and the streets had been cleared of all the black gas.
Several of them had happy expressions on their faces, but they knew that the disappearance of the black gas was only temporary, and that they had to cross the street immediately.
"Hurry up and everyone keep up!"
The four Adepts quickly ran towards the street, and there was a hope in front of them, after all, as long as they crossed this street, there was a high probability that there would be no black orbs outside.
Even that side is a crossroads, unless their luck really peaks.
The four Adepts walked briskly down the street, but what they didn't know was that they hadn't cleared the black gas.
Instead, under the reaction of several elements, it splits into smaller molecules, which have become almost invisible from what was originally visible to the naked eye.
The captain of the ability team, who was soon running at the front, suddenly felt his throat start to itch, and a burning sensation began to appear all over his body.
"Not good! Get out of here! ”
As soon as the words fell, the leader of the ability team rolled his eyes directly, fell to the ground and began to convulse, and the other three had not yet reacted to what was happening.
In an instant, the ability instrument worn by the leader of the ability team directly exploded.
After the explosion, only a mist of blood remained in the air.
"Team...... Captain! ”
"What's going on?"
"Hasn't that gas been cleaned up? Captain he ......"
Before the person who spoke had finished speaking, the same situation had happened, and he instantly fell to the ground and began to convulse, and then the instrument on his body exploded directly.
No!
Only then did someone react, those black gases were not cleaned up, but their elemental reactions caused these black gases to have some reactions.
Although they reacted in time, the remaining two Abilities also quickly turned around and ran behind them, but it was already too late at this time.
Before they could get to the place, they fell to the ground one after another and began to convulse, followed by two explosions.
In less than half a day, the three teams of Adepts had already wiped out two teams.
The most important thing is that these are still A-tier ability squads!
Although he didn't wear those exoskeleton armors or heavy particle armor, the abilities and equipment on his body were extremely valuable.
For the current federation, the production of these devices is also ridiculously low.
In less than half a day, there was only one ability squad left.
Moreover, of the seven helicopter gunships that were dispatched, only three were left so far, and most of them were smashed down by the vines of the catastrophic creature when they were hovering in the air.
It can be said that this time, the tasks assigned to them have not made any progress, and the losses are already very heavy, and ten A-level abilities already need to spend a lot of resources of the Federation to cultivate them.
Not to mention the paranormal equipment they were wearing, and the missiles on a few helicopter gunships.
Some of them were directly blown up by them before they even launched their missiles.
Even if a few of them managed to launch missiles at the vines that were flailing in the air, they still hit.
But desperately, the missiles didn't do much after they hit, and the vines were almost intact, except for some damage to the skin.
…………
Chen Yu's side was already on the map on the compass, and it was only less than two hundred meters away from that block.
During this period, Chen Yu had already used two speed bursts to explore the way back and forth, and it was only after confirming that it was safe that Chen Yu came back to continue to lead the way.
However, he only entered the block once twice, and only halfway through it, so it was uncertain if there would be a cataclysmic creature's vine in the block.
Chen's idea was to go from the back of the block to the rest of the neighborhood when he got there.
Although the number of zombies will be a little more by then, it is not much of a problem.
There was no need to face the vines of that catastrophic level creature, even if it was a second-order mutant, Chen Yu felt very relaxed when he was sorry.
"Chen Yu, don't you think the road here is surprisingly clean?"
Jia Chen looked around with some vigilance, after all, not far from the place they had just walked to, they had already encountered a zombie.
And they have already walked a distance of nearly two hundred meters on this road, and they have not even touched a fart.
The most important thing is that there are never abandoned vehicles on the road, all of them are pushed to the side of the road, and there is no blood on the ground.
Chen Yu really thinks it's okay, but they can only take this way, even if it's surprisingly clean, it doesn't mean anything.
At most, there was a second-order mutant nearby, but if there were, they would have come over to fight Chen Yu and them, and they had nothing to do after they had been gone for so long.
"Don't worry, even if something goes wrong, I'm here, and I'll let you go first when the time comes."
Anyway, he also has the ability to mimic invisibility, and he can walk at any time if he wants to, but when he dealt with those two vines just now, I don't know why he can't use it.
Chen Yu was a little puzzled, but he didn't think about it anymore.
"It's almost there."
Chen Yu looked up at the block in front of him and exhaled lightly, there was no problem with the first half, Chen Yu had already checked it himself.
But in the second half, you have to be careful when a few people pass through.
"Let's go."
"By the way, Chen Yu, what do you think about that Chen Yan?"
Otherwise, Jia Chen turned his head to look at Chen Yu, who was also stunned for a moment by Jia Chen's sudden question, and then spoke.
"She's ......"
Chen Yu thought for a while before he said, "I don't know, but hasn't she always followed you, and it seems that I haven't seen her until now." ”
Jia Chen chuckled, then nodded and said, "That's right, I didn't see her either, so guess what's wrong with her?" ”
Chen Yu frowned slightly, so he glanced at it again.
Suddenly came back to his senses.
Finished! This old cigarette is lost!
Chen Yu stopped directly, thinking in his heart whether to go back and look for it......
Chen Yu shook it unconsciously after thinking about it, anyway, this thing seems to be a hidden danger next to them, if she suddenly makes a move on Bai Yuanyan one day.
Chen Yu couldn't even defend himself, so he was more relieved that this guy ran away.
Merely......
That Chen Yan himself was already close to a second-order mutant, and he still maintained that state without absorbing any blood after following them for so long.
If Chen Yu hadn't taken her with them for that long time, that Chen Yan would have been alone outside, and it was estimated that he would already be in that kind of strength among the second-order mutants by now.
Chen Yu now thinks about it, if she compares it, it seems that she will not be her opponent at all.
Thinking about it like this, Chen Yu felt that if he let go of this thing, there would be another one in the Northwest Region that could deal with it in the future.
After all, the mutant of the blood type essentially absorbs blood all the time, although it is not very similar to a mutant, but the ability equipment classifies it as a mutant, and Chen Yu can only follow this idea.
It's dangerous......
