387: Alliance Team

Zhu Qing glanced at it and said, "Did you see that? The second wave of aerial supplies will definitely not be able to come down in a short time. At least, it will have to wait until the Alliance clears out these radiation-emitting zombies."

"The corpse race has evolved themselves into weapons, so who can defeat them? Now the Alliance is actually able to maintain a balanced standoff with the corpse race."

Zhu Qing smiled, "Captain, in the Super Soldier Project, the highest-level Superpower User controls six elements. We all thought that a six-element controller was already a god. But don't forget, there is also a Full Element Ability. This Full Element Ability should be the key to the current balanced situation, but there should be an agreement with the Corpse King, otherwise if the Full Element Ability makes a move, they would be in big trouble."

"Then why doesn't he make a move?" Gao Shengqiang asked.

"Because he can't eliminate them, so he doesn't make a move. The Corpse King's leader, Jiang Chen, even the Full Element Ability might not be able to do anything to him, so the leaders of both sides have reached a kind of balance. My guess is that this is an agreed-upon war. The highest-level gods have made a bet and will not participate."

Zhu Qing was extremely intelligent and had basically guessed correctly.

Gao Shengqiang frowned upon hearing this and said, "This bet is a bit childish, treating us as cannon fodder?"

Zhu Qing smiled indifferently and said, "We are cannon fodder! So I suggest we stick to the end. We are few in number, so we won't attract too many zombies. And taking the wild path that even zombies shake their heads at is the only way to cross the northern defense line. The Alliance cannot risk rescuing us. Sending supplies is already benevolent and righteous. The value of our group of people is not worth their combat personnel. This is the reality we must face."

Zhu Qing's words made Gao Shengqiang somewhat silent. He was already a smart person, and many things were clear with just a hint.

"We'll take the wild path to break out of the zombie encirclement. At least, we need to reach south of the defense line to get rescue. Whether we can last until then is the question we should consider," Zhu Qing said.

Gao Shengqiang frowned and said, "We don't have many weapons and equipment. With just the equipment we have, it will be difficult to survive under the zombie siege."

Zhu Qing nodded and said, "So we need to find the Alliance's special operations team. The Alliance will definitely send personnel to infiltrate to figure out the distribution of zombies. But these infiltrating people are definitely not here to rescue people. We need to stay away from crowds to have a chance of encountering them."

Gao Shengqiang looked at Zhu Qing and said, "What you said makes sense, but what if we don't encounter them? We have all been injected with the Superpower Potion and can only live for a dozen days. Even if the second wave of supplies is sent, the Alliance will drop them into crowded areas based on high-altitude reconnaissance."

Zhu Qing smiled indifferently, "Then it means we are out of luck!"

As the two talked, another extremely strong flash appeared. A precision-guided bomb fell towards the area where the plasma ray was previously emitted, and a high-temperature fireball rose. The zombie emitting the plasma ray was directly engulfed by the huge fireball in the high temperature.

The huge explosion sound came more than twenty seconds later. Zhu Qing said, "Let's go, move towards the direction of the explosion."

"Are you crazy? The Alliance is pinpointing and clearing the zombies' anti-aircraft defenses. We don't even have time to escape, and you're moving towards the explosion. What if that ray Corpse King wasn't killed by the explosion?"

Zhu Qing said, "Even if it wasn't killed, it would be severely wounded and flee. It would never stay in one place waiting for a second missile. Let's go, Brother Qiang, the most dangerous place is the safest place."

Gao Shengqiang frowned, looked at Zhu Qing, and finally nodded.

The two led the team towards the direction of the explosion, cautiously avoiding areas with zombie activity along the way.

"Look there!" Zhu Qing suddenly pointed in a direction and said.

Gao Shengqiang looked in the direction Zhu Qing was pointing and only saw a huge crater in the distance, with a Corpse King like a small mountain climbing towards the edge of the pit.

The scene was extremely shocking. This Corpse King was pitch black all over, and its left arm was blown off in the explosion just now, but it was not yet dead.

This type of ray zombie, having just reached the Corpse King level, was huge in size and had an extremely strong body structure. Its large size was for energy storage; it could convert energy to release high-energy plasma rays.

When it released the ray just now, it exposed its position, and after releasing it, there was a five to six minute cooldown time. The Alliance's strike speed was too fast because these weapons were deployed on high-altitude cruise drones.

The plasma ray's range could reach these high-altitude cruisers, but to pass through the dense atmosphere, the energy attenuation would cause almost no significant damage to high-altitude targets.

Moreover, high-altitude targets also had thick reflective plates as protection below. Above 20,000 meters, the ray zombies posed no threat.

Gao Shengqiang waved his hand, and everyone began to retreat. Something that even a missile couldn't kill, his fifty-person team would just be sending themselves to their deaths.

"Zhu Qing, you've ruined us. The most dangerous place is the most dangerous place. This thing hasn't left yet!"

Just as Zhu Qing was about to say something, two small drones appeared at low altitude. Immediately after, a small team of personnel appeared on the other side of the large pit.

These people were wearing Alliance combat uniforms, carrying energy backpacks, and had partially encapsulated personal mechanical exoskeletons installed on them.

Zhu Qing immediately said excitedly, "The Alliance, it's the Alliance's people! I told you, my guess was right."

Gao Shengqiang was also quite surprised and quickly said to the team channel, "Team members, pay attention, we are moving closer to rendezvous with the Alliance team."

As everyone approached, the Alliance team had already engaged the severely wounded Corpse King. The weapons in their hands were much more advanced than those of Gao Shengqiang's team. They were all energy weapons, silent when fired, but extremely powerful.

The ray zombie was too tough and thick-skinned. It withstood more than a dozen pulse lasers and roared as it lunged at the Alliance team.

By the time Gao Shengqiang's team approached, the fierce battle between the Alliance team and the ray Corpse King had already entered a white-hot stage.

The gigantic Corpse King stood at the edge of the crater, like a dark mountain, emitting a terrifying aura.

Its body was mutilated by the explosion, its left arm broken, revealing stark white bones, but it still stood stubbornly. Its eyes glowed with an eerie green light, like wolf eyes, locking onto the Alliance team.

The Alliance team, meanwhile, surrounded the Corpse King, launching attacks. Their personal mechanical exoskeletons gleamed with a cold metallic luster, like futuristic warriors. They held pulse laser guns, continuously firing at the Corpse King. The pulse lasers streaked through the air, creating dazzling lines of light, and erupted with intense energy fluctuations upon hitting the Corpse King.

However, the ray Corpse King's defense was astonishingly strong. Its skin was like tough armor, and the pulse lasers only left shallow marks on it. It roared and charged at the Alliance team, its massive body plowing forward like a tank, making the ground tremble beneath its feet.

The members of the Alliance team quickly scattered, dodging the Corpse King's attacks. One of the members leaped up, and the pulse laser gun in his hand spewed a scorching beam of energy, striking the Corpse King's head. The Corpse King let out a cry of pain, but it did not fall; instead, it attacked even more frantically.
