Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 851: Mecha Team Makes an Appearance
Chapter 851: Chapter 851: Mecha Team Makes an Appearance
Perhaps due to the instability of the capsules Han Yue and the others released being absorbed by zombies, Level 7 or higher zombies occasionally appeared at the base of the city walls.
For example, right now, a Level 5 Metal Element zombie in front of Xu Shi suddenly went berserk, displaying the strength of a Level 8 Metal Element. If it weren’t for Su Jin’s vine quickly blocking the attack for Xu Shi, he might have been pierced into a sieve by the zombie.
“Leave it to us, you head over there.”
Su Jin, who was closest to Xu Shi, said.
“Okay.”
Xu Shi, who was of the Level 5 Fire Element, was no match for this Level 8 zombie. He quickly switched places with Su Jin and focused his efforts on dealing with an Earth Element mutated zombie.
“Xiao Jin, don’t confront it directly.”
Lu Hao positioned himself as close to Su Jin as possible, ensuring he could provide support at any time.
Su Jin nodded. The Level 8 Metal Element zombie was in the excitement of just going berserk and even grabbed a nearby zombie to hurl at Su Jin!
The zombie thrown at Su Jin was intercepted by a vine. Upon closer inspection, it was found that the vine had grown from beneath a leaf of a Man-eating Flower to the front left.
The zombie was rolled up and eventually fell into the Man-eating Flower’s pistil.
Thank you, Xiao Cui.
Su Jin thanked with her mind, and Xiao Cui happily responded immediately.
For some reason, since having Lu Xi and Lu Wang, Su Jin felt her connection with Xiao Cui became increasingly clear. Xiao Cui, once deep in her consciousness, now felt very close to her.
However, the berserk zombie in front of her was the immediate problem she needed to solve.
Roar roar roar!
The Metal Element zombie, fully metallic, opened its bloody mouth and spread its arms to pounce on Su Jin, seemingly wanting to embrace her tightly.
A thick vine appeared where Su Jin stood, lifting her into the air, dodging the Metal Element zombie’s attack.
Swish swish!
Several metal blades chopped crookedly or slantingly at the vine. Although the Level 8 blades didn’t cut the vine like mud, they did make the thick vine appear on the verge of collapse.
However, the vine seemed to possess a healing function, quickly restoring the areas that had been slashed. Su Jin stood calmly in mid-air, watching the zombie below hack away for a while.
Delaying tactics don’t seem so hard!
Su Jin couldn’t help but condense a few more wooden spikes, persistently harassing the Metal Element zombie below.
Roar!
The Metal Element zombie finally became furious, looking up with its eyeless eyes.
“Be careful!”
Lu Hao, who was watching from below, saw clearly that the Metal Element zombie had also condensed a metal pillar under its feet, slowly rising up while standing on it.
Su Jin smiled, and as the zombie was about to rise to her level and leap at her, the vine suddenly brought Su Jin down again…
There was a burst of laughter from the spectators on the city wall; the Level 8 zombie was being toyed with by Su Jin!
Finding it couldn’t touch Su Jin, the zombie desperately launched long-range special ability attacks, sending metal spikes and blades flying toward Su Jin!
“Exactly, I want to see how long you, a pseudo-Level 8, can hold out.”
Su Jin swamped up a vine wall to firmly catch the metal spikes and blades, then used the vine wall, now studded with gleaming metal spikes, to cover the zombie’s head!
Not dodging, the zombie tore the vine wall apart barehanded, and the torn vines seemed to turn into live snakes, winding all over its body.
Roar!
The Metal Element zombie roared angrily, its whole body suddenly bursting with power, flinging all the annoying soft vines away. However, this surge also depleted much of its special ability.
Seeing its metallic body turn half-metallic, Su Jin finally initiated an attack, with the vine drawing the zombie’s attention upfront while wooden spikes quickly flew toward the back of its head!
Pfft!
The Metal Element zombie stood still in place, not moving a bit, and then toppled straight back.
“Next time there’s a zombie like this, let me play with one, too.”
Lin Xiuyuan said.
Since Su Jin shaded the battlefield, Ice-Element Ability Users like him no longer had to struggle so much, and everyone found it much more refreshing than under the scorching sun. Su Jin’s move even reduced the casualty rate.
“Sure, I don’t mind. More than this, I prefer taking on larger groups.”
Su Jin said, conjuring a green web of vines to cover the zombies outside the field. The vine net tightened automatically below, instantly lifting hundreds of zombies high. The Wood Element ability turned the vine net into sharp spikes, piercing all the zombies within to death.
Compared to other nearby Special Ability Users, the Heart Talk Team’s attack seemed more playful. In just two or three hours, the less than ten-member team had killed tens of thousands of zombies, not counting those devoured by the twelve Man-eating Flowers.
“Su Jin, Lu Hao, don’t rush off later; I have something good to show you.”
Liang Jiuhui, who had unknowingly joined in, said, zapping a zombie with a thunderball.
“What good stuff?”
Lin Cheng, interested, asked.
“You’ll see soon enough.”
Liang Jiuhui said with a smile.
In his opinion, it was the second secret weapon in their base, besides the Heart Talk Team.
As a row of shiny humanoid mechs, each no more than two meters tall, appeared inside the S City base, passersby felt their eyes were practically blinded.
Under the sunshine, the silver mechs shone brilliantly, embodying both heftiness and agility as they moved down the central road.
So majestic!
“Super! Invincible! Cool!”
Kou Ning followed the crowd, looking at the mechs marching on the road, thinking how incredibly cool they were!
Following the initial testing of the larger models, Lian Ze had significantly improved the humanoid mechs until they reached their current adjustable size, slightly taller than the average young adult but not bulky, and silent as they walked without joint friction sounds.
Everyone excitably climbed up the wall densely covered with shade vines, watching the mechs preparing to go onto the battlefield.
When the city gate opened, and Su Jin’s group about to head out saw the silver-gray gleaming mechs across from them, their eyes couldn’t help but light up.
“Each one’s got a special ability user inside,”
Mao Qiqi said.
“Come on, let’s go check it out!”
Lin Xiuyuan looked up admiringly at an armored suit closest to him; he wanted to sit inside so badly!
Most mechs’ pilots were either Space or Wood Element Ability Users. When they saw the admiring looks from the Heart Talk Team, many inside couldn’t help blushing.
Their first battle had to dazzle!
