Volume 6: The Twelve Wallfacers Chapter 61: Formation, Desperate Situation
Crisis is coming!
The strongest team of superhumans in Keenan City got into trouble because of a strange T-shaped zombie. The sudden fat attack made everyone's bodies feel as heavy as if two Kinder Surprise Eggs were hanging on them.
It greatly affected everyone's speed and flexibility, and the fat was still wriggling and attacking them, like a parasite, trying to drill into their bodies. Fortunately, the Alloy Craftsman Soul Armor was strong enough to block the attacks of the unknown creatures.
Otherwise, damage will occur.
But at this time, the situation was already very critical!
Everyone was in an offensive formation, sharpening their knives and heading for the zombies, but before they could touch the zombies, they were suddenly attacked, slowing down their overall speed and interrupting their attack rhythm. The zombies reacted and surrounded them. Lei Jun jumped down from the building and shouted, "Stay close to each other, with your backs against the wall, and fight a positional battle!"
The captain's words freed everyone from their surprise and fear. They subconsciously followed the order and gathered together. However, the fast zombies had already pounced on them, "Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh--"
500 arrows flew out, turning the zombies that were already in front of them into sieves, and their bodies were leaking air.
It was the crossbowmen in the back row who launched a timely counterattack. The people in the front row, restricted by their fat bodies, took out their battle badges with difficulty, formed a line and held on.
The man in the middle took out his mechanical formation flag from his waist, waited for the right opportunity, overcame all the unfavorable conditions on his body in a short time, and completed the defense. This is the combat quality of the elite extraordinary people in Keenan City.
The zombies were blocked by the arrows for a moment. Except for those shot through the head, the rest of the zombies continued to pounce. Facing the attack of more than 10,000 zombies, it would not be a problem if they fought while retreating, relying on the terrain. After all, human wisdom is countless times that of zombies, and there are endless tactics. Killing zombies that are 10 times their own number is just a matter of wasting some effort and spending more time. But... it would be difficult if they fought head-on!
Everyone pulled at the fat on their bodies, but couldn't move it. It was as if there were tentacles hooked on their armor. Moreover, the zombies attacked them, and they had no way to deal with the attachments on their bodies, so they had to fight back hastily.
Captain Lei Jun floated down from the roof with a gloomy face. Before he arrived, the alloy hammer had already accelerated and flew down, "Bang!"
The sledgehammer was still wrapped in a thick layer of energy, and it blew a 10-meter-deep pit directly among the zombies in front of the crowd. Gravel flew everywhere, and energy waves rushed out from the middle, causing the surrounding zombies to stagger.
This attack killed at least hundreds of zombies!
The rest of the people took this opportunity to organize their defenses, shoot from a distance, and with the help of long-range psychics, they managed to keep the zombies out of their 20-meter range.
In the pile of zombies, the swollen T zombie had its body fat scattered around, leaving only knotted muscles on its torso. Strands of purple-red blood stretched across its body. It was a hundred meters tall, with thick blood vessels and exploding muscles. At first glance, it looked full of power, a walking muscleman!
Its blood-red eyes stared at Lei Jun who was floating in the air. It roared, slightly arched its feet, swelled its leg muscles, stomped hard, the ground sank, and it pounced on him in an instant!
Very fast!
His level of agility was totally beyond expectations for a zombie of this size.
In broad daylight, a phantom appeared in front of everyone. The second-level extraordinary people's vision could keep up with its speed, but... their actions could not keep up. They could only watch as the phantom finally landed in front of their captain Lei Jun, a big blood-red fist!
“Bang!”
The hammer on the ground somehow found its way into Lei Jun's hands. He threw it out again, and it collided with the zombie's fist, "Bang!"
With a muffled sound, a strong wind suddenly arose and swept across the battlefield!
Lei Jun flew back to the building behind him, and his feet stepped into a deep pit on the outside of the building. Dense spider webs spread out from under his feet, and the whole building shook.
The huge T zombie retreated dozens of steps, leaving a deep groove on the ground before stopping, and trampled to death many lost zombies on the way. This was a fight between a third-level human and a third-level zombie, one man and one zombie... they were evenly matched!
The two stared at each other from a distance of hundreds of meters, with a strong sense of tension.
Lei Jun calmly commanded: "This third-level zombie is very powerful. I need to deal with it with all my strength. I am afraid it will be difficult for me to help you. We can't retreat now, so... set up the formation and kill them!"
"yes!"
1,000 people pulled out mechanical formation flags from their waists and spread them out in tacit cooperation. The formation flags landed accurately in the area in front, forming a Bagua diagram, surrounding everyone inside. Then, everyone pinched the magic spell with their hands, and the formation flags were activated!
“Buzz——”
The formation flag made a vibrating sound, and then burst out with countless energy. A white light rose from the ground, enveloping the 20-meter space around everyone. Another black light rose from the ground, covering the zombies in front.
"Liang Yi Formation!"
This is a combination formation that they have mastered now. It can be used by multiple people in stacking. Two of them serve as the center of the formation, controlling the operation of the entire formation, while the others only need to continuously provide energy to their own formation flags.
This formation has both offensive and defensive capabilities, and is very suitable for the current situation.
When the formation flag was raised, everyone was visibly relieved, which meant that they no longer had to worry about the zombies' claws running in front of their faces. On the periphery, a layer of golden light shield rose up, and the leading few second-order power zombies were blocked outside in their advance. They roared wildly and used force hammers to hit the energy shield in front of them, making bursts of roars.
But it couldn't be shaken for a while. The core of the formation responsible for attacking took out another mechanical formation flag from his backpack and pointed it at the zombies that were hammering the energy shield, "Chain Lightning!"
“Boom boom—”
a bolt from the blue!
A thundercloud appeared above the zombies' heads, sprinkling down dense lightning that instantly numbed the zombies with electric shock. The first-level zombies were electrified until their bodies were charred and bloody. The second-level zombies were also electrocuted and screamed, with wounds of varying sizes appearing on their bodies.
In addition to supplying energy to the formation, the rest of the people took out their long-range weapons and fired, occasionally throwing a [Crystal Core Bomb] into the dense group of zombies, causing decent area damage. Among them, the front-row meat shields who did not have long-range weapons because they were holding battle signs, used their own weapons to scrape off the sticky, squirming fat on their bodies, "Hua Hua Hua——"
There were actually barbs and fangs growing in the fat, which had chewed big holes in the alloy equipment on their bodies.
If I don't care about them anymore, all my equipment will be scrapped soon, and then I'll just have to eat their flesh...
After the front-row soldiers finished cleaning themselves, they assisted their teammates in scraping off the fat, and then gathered together to burn it. Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief and fully cooperate with the formation to fight the zombies outside.
While fighting with the third-level muscular zombie, Lei Jun was paying attention to the situation of his men. Seeing that there were no casualties and the position had been stabilized, he felt relieved.
"Take it step by step. Pay attention to supplying energy to the formation. Take out all the crystal cores. Don't be afraid of wasting them. This battle... we can win!"
Although they were caught off guard by this strange T3 zombie, they relied on the excellent full-body protection of the alloy equipment to resist the first wave of fat attacks, and relied on the Liangyi Formation to stabilize their position. Everyone brought a lot of crystal cores with them when they went out, just to supply energy to the formation. This kind of large formation consumes a lot, but fortunately it does not consume their own energy. When the energy in the formation flag is almost used up, they can use crystal cores to replenish it.
Although not as exaggerated as the ancient humans who could set up a formation and rely on the power of heaven and earth to operate on their own, the mechanical formation flags developed by Tianluodiwang can use crystal cores as the core energy source, which is already a remarkable invention.
Moreover, this thing can be mass-produced, greatly increasing the strength of the extraordinary people in the Tianluodiwang throughout China.
The crowd fought back and forth with the zombies across the formation. Under their control, items in the formation could go out but items outside could not come in. The people in the front row were using melee weapons to poke the zombies out of the formation, the people in the back row were using crossbows to shoot at the zombies, and the people controlling the attack formation used the formation to continuously attack the zombies. Various energy attack methods emerged one after another, and the damage was extremely high.
As more crystal cores were added to the formation flags, the situation became increasingly better.
After half an hour, most of the zombies had died, and the battle between Lei Jun and the third-level T zombie was almost decided. After all, Lei Jun was better, because he was the leading figure of Keenan City, a third-level intermediate transcendent, and had an A-level supernatural power - energy possession.
A large amount of blood had spurted out of the T3 zombie's body, its chest was flattened, a piece of its skull was missing, and a large part of the muscles on its legs had been killed off, and it no longer had its original agility.
Although Lei Jun's face was pale and he seemed to have little energy left, his body was not seriously injured. It was just that cracks appeared on the outer armor of the Craftsman Soul and it no longer shone, and it looked like it was about to be scrapped.
The alloy hammer was shining, with a faint layer of blood flowing on it, as if it had become stronger after absorbing the blood of high-level zombies.
Victory is decided!
Lei Jun shouted: "All-out attack, prepare to finish!"
He attacked again with his hammer. This time, the T3 zombie got scared and stopped fighting. It turned around and ran away, roaring, "Ugh! Roar!"
Suddenly, Lei Jun's face changed, "Not good!"
The next moment, the 3 million zombies that were advancing suddenly stopped. One of the big-headed zombies sat on the back of a T3 zombie and turned to Lei Jun and the others. The zombies quieted down and the atmosphere suddenly became murderous...
The 20 extraordinary teams seemed to realize something and slowed down their movements.
Lei Jun looked at the low-health T3 zombie and did not chase after it. Although he could get a third-level crystal core after killing the zombie, which he could exchange for a lot of good things at the headquarters, but... he didn't have time to kill zombies.
He turned his head to look at the elite troops of Keenan City below and shouted loudly: "Run!"
"Abandon the position and run!!"
"The zombie tide has discovered us!!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the zombies stopped and turned around, running towards them. The red-haired flying zombie hovering in the sky took the lead and swooped down.
The captains of the 20 teams looked at each other and shouted in unison: "You guys go quickly, I'll cover you!"
Someone must cover the retreat!
Otherwise, these zombies in front of them will chase them relentlessly after they break through the formation. Without the attraction of the large formation, the flying zombies in the sky will also catch up with them and kill them one by one. By then, the casualties will be too great, and it is even possible that... no one will be able to escape.
Seeing that several captains were about to argue, Lei Jun made a prompt decision: "Fill up the array energy crystal cores, and the two core teams... follow me to cover the rear!"
His words were tantamount to sentencing the two teams to death. Facing the impact of 3 million zombies, no one could survive. He had a special ability that allowed him to attach energy to his body to form an invisible wing and fly away, but the others would have to stay here. In these two teams... there were old friends he used to drink with, and a distant nephew who called him uncle, but... he had to make a decision, because... it was his responsibility, and more people had to survive!
“Execute immediately!!!”
The rest of the people had no time to separate. Two teams looked resolute and fearless, and concentrated on presiding over the formation. The others broke the wall behind them and retreated quickly!
The 18 captains looked at the two teams that stayed behind, "Brothers...we will avenge you!"
"Walk!"
Following orders, 18 teams retreated quickly, leaving only two teams maintaining the formation on the scene. They exerted the energy in the formation to the utmost, launching more violent attacks with violent energy fluctuations, trying to attract the attention of the zombie tide.
Lei Jun swallowed 10 second-level crystal cores in one gulp. A large amount of energy burst out from his body. A stream of blood spurted out from his seven orifices. The next moment... violent energy began to evaporate!
He also needed to buy some time for those who were retreating.
"bring it on!"
The zombie tide didn't go far. The T3 zombie ran back to the team, came under the command of the Z3 zombie, knelt down, and raised his broken hands. The Z3 zombie spat out a thick black liquid from its mouth, which entered its hands, and then... the cells in the T3 zombie's body began to divide in large numbers, and the damaged body was quickly repaired, and the bones, muscles, and fat all grew back!
It's like a broken penis regenerated, fully functioning.
The zombies rushed over like a black mudslide, sweeping across the entire city. Lei Jun couldn't help but feel suffocated when facing this force. "This... kind of power is too terrifying. When will the Tianluodiwang be able to face this zombie tide and defeat them?"
Anyway, Keenan City can't do it, and the entire S Province can't do it. Even if it is the headquarters of Tianluodiwang, if they want to take the initiative to eliminate this level of zombie tide, they need to plan carefully and combine tactical layout and terrain advantages to have some chance of taking it down.
The zombies pounced on them. Lei Jun flew into the air to intercept the flying zombies. Looking at the two teams that had been submerged below, countless agile M-shaped zombies surrounded them. The formation was full of zombies. They attacked with the most primitive strength. The formation burst out with strong golden light and countless electric lights flashed, as if they were about to bloom with the last ray of light.
Lei Jun couldn't bear to watch any longer. He knew that in a minute at most, the formation below would be breached, and his people would...
With tears in his eyes, Lei Jun rushed towards the flying zombies in the sky, "The rest of you... must survive!"
He couldn't let all the elite troops of Keenan City be wiped out by him. They were the future of Keenan City and S Province!
Even if I have to stay, I must protect them.
Violent energy fluctuations emanated from him, and the flying zombies in the sky were indeed attracted over here. He was fighting alone against thousands of level two flying zombies and one level three flying zombie, and the pressure was enormous!
Especially after the battle just now, his armor was on the verge of being completely damaged.
Now, after forcefully swallowing 10 second-level crystal cores, his energy has been temporarily restored, but his body is already in an overdrawn state and cannot last too long.
But he still rushed forward without hesitation. He wanted to save 18 teams, 1,900 people, by himself!
The two with huge differences in strength fought each other. Lei Jun burst out with all his strength and killed dozens of second-level flying zombies in one encounter. However, the next moment, "Puff!"
A huge tentacle shot out from the tide of zombies and instantly pierced through Lei Jun in the air. A trace of confusion appeared in his eyes. Just now... his sixth sense didn't remind him?
Turning his head, he saw waves of mental fluctuations emanating from the tentacles of the big-headed zombie hovering above the corpse tide, "Mental power...intervention!"
The extremely long tentacle hooked back, and Lei Jun fell backwards. His mind was confused for a while, but he still relied on his strong willpower to barely open a crack and saw the flying zombies chasing in the direction of the 18 teams' escape...
"I'm sorry... Dragnet!"
Two lines of blood and tears flowed from the corners of Lei Jun's eyes.
…
In a daze, Lei Jun heard the roar of a flying zombie in the air, and then his body suddenly lightened, and he was pulled off the zombie's tentacles and flew back into the sky. He opened his eyes...
