Volume 4: National Craftsmanship Chapter 98: Giant Zombie's Energy Shield
"What the hell is this!?"
Shen Jin looked at the center of the zombie tide. Where the two reproductive bodies had originally stood, a zombie that looked like a giant spirit was slowly standing up. Something was wrong!
It's not just standing up, it's growing!
The zombie's flesh was white and greasy, like the fat of a pig, and its head was like a meat ball. It was expanding violently, as if its cells could divide themselves infinitely and grow continuously.
As the zombie's body grew larger, a translucent black energy membrane also expanded around it, like a buckled bowl, firmly protecting the large group of zombies.
The explosion of [Industrial TNT] is still continuing, but the impact force and flame of the explosion are annihilated after encountering the black energy membrane and cannot penetrate it!
“Boom!”, “Boom!”, “Boom!”, “Boom!”…
Intensive explosions sounded from under the giant zombie's feet, but... the TNT below seemed to be suppressed by the light film, which only caused the distance vibration of the light film, and the flames could not penetrate. At an altitude of 1,000 meters, Shen Jin and his companions were shocked when they saw the zombie resisting the explosion of [Industrial TNT] on its own. Yang Ao swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "This thing... I have never seen it before, where did it come from?"
The other captains looked at each other. They hadn't seen this thing either. Tong Zhen tentatively asked, "Could it be that... we didn't see it because we stayed underground all the time?"
Meng San shook his head: "No, a zombie this big can't be hidden at all, the ground will be bulging!"
Qi Tong said: "Its body is getting bigger, does that mean it might have been very small at the beginning? So we didn't observe it?"
"Very likely! Our plan has changed! Old Wu, take everyone to the second line of defense at Tianhe Mountain! Quickly deploy TNT!"
" Yes! Brothers, follow me!" Wu Yong called the extraordinary people to go to another line of defense in Tianhe Mountain, where they had already set up more than half of the defense, and the only thing left was to bury the [Industrial TNT].
Shen Jin continued to look down. The [Industrial TNT] on the "Road of Death" was still exploding, but the damage it could cause was very limited. The giant zombie had now grown to a height of 30 meters. Although the surrounding black energy membrane had been blown dim, but!
After a while of easing up in the zombie tide, changes had begun to occur. Countless thick-skinned T-shaped zombies had black smoke coming out of their feet. They gradually merged together along the black smoke, gradually surrounding the remaining zombies and slowly forming a blood-red zombie eggshell with layers of extremely elastic flesh balls on the outside. "Crack, crack, crack—"
The huge zombie tide started to move, like a controlled instrument. All the zombies protected by the black light film got into the "eggshell". "Boom!"
A huge roar was heard again, and the huge black light film supported by the giant zombie shattered, like a broken tempered glass. A gap was blown out under the dense spider web cracks, and countless flames poured into the tide of zombies again along the gap. Shen Jin's hands could not help but clench again, and exploded!
"roar!!!"
When the giant zombie reached 33 meters in height, it stopped growing. Its body was covered with a large amount of white muscle, and the white fat on its head became the shape of muscles. It looked like a fitness fanatic zombie!
It roared, and the black film reappeared, but this time it only covered itself. The range of the film was reduced by hundreds of times, and it became more condensed. Even with such a strong explosive force of [Industrial TNT], it could not shake it at all. The black film protected the white body of the "Fitness Maniac Corpse" like a small umbrella, preventing it from being wetted by the flames outside...
Of the 5,000 buried [industrial TNT], only 1/3 remained undetonated. "Boom boom boom!"
The second half of the corpse tide began to explode, "bang bang bang!"
The flames and airflow from the explosion hit the "zombie eggshells" hard, but... the eggshells held up. They did not break, but slowly moved towards the city wall, away from the explosion area.
The T-shaped zombies outside were blown apart layer by layer, but the eggshell seemed to be infinitely thick and never broke. It was covered with black mist, which constantly repaired the damage at the back.
"Alas... What a pity, damn zombie fusion technique!"
Shen Jin sighed. They had planned a lot for this explosion, but they hadn't expected that the zombie tide could withstand such a dense TNT on its own. It only held out for a short period of time, less than half a minute. The zombie tide had quickly merged to protect itself. Yang Ao looked at the rapid changes in front of him and took a breath, "They... held out like that?"
The [Industrial TNT] that could have wiped out the entire zombie tide only exploded halfway before being defended. The third-level Z zombies are so terrifying!
" What on earth is this zombie in the middle that can grow in size and support an energy shield? Stage 3? Or... Stage 4?"
The purple light on Shang Qian's body began to flicker, and she was ready to lead everyone away. "Although we didn't wipe out all the zombies, the initial explosion at least killed more than half of them, and... I think their shells look very strong, but the damage to the skin is also not small. I estimate that it will also cause a lot of losses to recover the zombies one by one. This wave, at least 550,000+ zombies have been annihilated, which has... fulfilled our initial expectation. Let's go, we still have two lines of defense!"
Li Moxiao's face was full of confusion: "But..."
Everyone looked at Li Moxiao. She usually didn't speak during a fight. She would stand obediently beside Shen Jin and would only stand out when she was needed to fight. She was a very qualified tool. At this moment, Li Moxiao suddenly spoke. She must have discovered something!
You know, in addition to the second-level gene lock and super appetite, she also has a characteristic... an extremely strong sixth sense!
It was as powerful as metaphysics. Otherwise, he would not have found Shen Jin, his long-term meal ticket, by intuition. After being hit by the zombie tide and lost, he relied on his sixth sense to find Shen Jin again and hold on to his meal ticket again...
Looking at the expectant eyes of the crowd, Li Moxiao said slowly: "But... there are so many crystal cores underground, enough for me to eat for a year. Shouldn't we really pick them up... before leaving?"
Everyone: (°ー°〃)
Shen Jin slapped his thigh, "You are so awesome, sister! You are really wrong. You never forget to eat!"
The originally serious atmosphere suddenly eased a little. Li Moxiao angrily said, "If you don't allow me to eat, then don't eat. Why are you slapping my thigh?"
"Ahem... I slapped myself... It hurts." Shen Jin was a little embarrassed. "Well, what! Stop looking at it. Let's go to the second line of defense. After all, we have already killed half of the zombies. It's a good record. If we can blow it up once, we can blow it up a second time!"
Shen Jin made up his mind that he would redesign the [Industrial TNT] of the second line of defense. The [Industrial TNT] of the first line of defense was arranged in "series" and exploded one after another, while the second line of defense had to be arranged in "parallel" so that they would explode simultaneously instantly once activated!
But... this is more complicated to operate, and it will consume more materials to arrange the detonation line. Theoretically, each [Industrial TNT] is connected to a [Pull Rod] to achieve this effect. "Without further delay, before the zombies turn back, let's build a second line of defense! Let's go!"
Shang Qian pulled everyone together and flashed directly. The 16 black spots in the sky disappeared instantly.
“Bang!”
With a loud bang, a 33-meter-tall giant zombie kicked the remains of the city wall that blocked the way, and countless pieces of rubble flew up...
…
In the command room of the S City Tianluodiwang branch, Zhang Qiang and his colleagues looked at the terrifying mushroom cloud on the screen in shock. After a moment of stunned silence, the entire command room cheered!
Most people here used to be in the military, and they are very clear about the destructive power that the scenes in the video can cause. "Zombies are absolutely unstoppable! It's like a cruise missile without a nuclear warhead! There will be no grass growing within a 10-kilometer radius!"
A technician knew the power of these missiles by heart. Although they were far inferior to large-capacity intercontinental missiles, they were definitely as powerful as ordinary cruise missiles. "Great! This is the technological mutant that the Tianluodiwang headquarters mentioned, right? I didn't expect that he could already create such a large-scale explosion. What a pity... If the thermal weapons were not paralyzed, let alone the 2 million zombies, even if I gave them 100 million! I wouldn't let them enter H Province!" An older middle-aged officer said proudly.
The technician Xiao Zhang nearby reminded: "Ahem... Brother Liu, these zombies were originally formed in our H Province!"
Brother Liu: “…”
Zhang Qiang said: "I hope our Twelve Wallfacers can figure out the principle as soon as possible. Once we can use thermal weapons, no matter how the zombies evolve, a division of soldiers can firmly suppress this tide of one million zombies!"
"Haha, Commander Zhang, I think we can wipe them out with at most one brigade!"
"One regiment! If you can't kill them, it's my fault!"
Everyone started a heated discussion, as if they had returned to the time before the end of the world, when they still had those hot weapons...
The atmosphere in the command room gradually became heated. Someone had already planned to notify the old leaders and asked them to prepare to bring the people back. This atmosphere lasted until... the giant zombie appeared. After a while, the entire command room was silent. The technician who had just dialed the satellite phone of the old leader said with difficulty: "Ah... why am I calling? Well... nothing, just to see if you retreated... far enough?"
