Apocalypse: the Most Ruthless Person
Chapter 483 - 432: Hand in Hand, Walking the Path to the Underworld TogetherZhang Su saw Li Zongkai hiding behind the car, making a series of gestures. He immediately understood that he was transmitting a code. Fortunately, his vision was exceptional, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to see those gestures clearly. He quickly identified the code: 5137855!
The cunning guy didn’t use the traditional six-digit or eight-digit code. If it wasn’t for Li Zongkai knowing this string of numbers, it would have been impossible to guess!
"Haha, are you bewildered?"
Liao Youzhi stopped abruptly upon hearing Zhang Su speak, a mad grin spreading across his face. Then, with a tearing sound, he unzipped his down jacket, revealing a complex device at his chest!
"Don’t be quick to be dumbfounded. Let me show you true horror! Inside here is the Survivor Alliance’s scientific department’s great invention, Corpse Transformation Powder. The sensory explosive device is the engineer’s masterpiece. Once triggered, the powder carried by the wind is enough to turn countless people into zombies!
Do you think you can escape disaster just by running fast? Wrong, wrong, wrong, you’re completely mistaken. Then, the entire Qing County, the entire Qin City won’t be spared. Let’s see who dares to open this Pandora’s box and become Qin City’s sinner!"
After these words, not only did everyone else become extremely tense, but even the members of the Guard Team standing behind Liao Youzhi as his protectors turned pale.
What the hell?
Not even our own can escape, isn’t that a load of crap?
It’s certainly exaggerated to say the entire Qing County and Qin City, but those present can’t escape.
At that moment, these people wavered. Ultimately, they were just relatively strong fighters, neither soldiers with firm will before the disaster nor well-trained special operatives.
Protecting Liao Youzhi was merely a supply and demand relationship. If their lives were threatened, they’d have to prioritize themselves, so some had already started reconsidering.
"I don’t believe it."
Faced with Liao Youzhi’s bold claims, Zhang Su responded calmly with three words.
That’s awkward as hell...
It’s like a rich person boasting about wearing all sorts of brand names, claiming this is high fashion, that is handmade, and the opponent simply replies, all fake.
Liao Youzhi imagined the other party would also boast about many impressive things to contend with him. He even began planning in his mind how to counter, thinking they certainly wouldn’t really come to blows, just engage in verbal sparring to see whose words are stronger.
Until the opponent slacked and wavered, first dealing with Gong Chengming’s group, then taking down the Celestial Horse Island leader, and proceeding with the plan as usual.
The opponent did something unexpected, breaking the routine, rendering his mind blank!
Zhang Su gestured to Li Zongkai, signaling him to move a bit to the side, then slightly curled his lips and said, "Why don’t we prove Leader Liao’s words!"
As the words fell, everyone’s thoughts followed Zhang Su’s words, trying to figure out how to prove it when a shocking scene unfolded.
Then came a clinking sound, immediately followed by a hair-raising sound Liao Youzhi heard, clink-clank.
It was the sound of a chain being pulled. He stared in horror at the Fire-breathing Zombie inside the box truck, the metal box covering its head. The front side was pulled up; the opponent knew the code!!
The powerful Fire-breathing Zombie’s control principle was so simple. It only needed to sense the presence of humans ahead to immediately spray intense flames. The only key was that string of code; knowing the code effectively controls the Fire-breathing Zombie!
"Roar!!"
Phew...
A mighty fire dragon soared out from the box truck, like raging river rapids, instantly engulfing the 30-40 meters in front of the truck’s opening. The furious flame stretched across the entire street, reaching the shops at the other end. This was the Fire-breathing Zombie’s maximum attack range!
In the field, Liao Youzhi and the dozen Guard Team members, watched as the fire dragon approached. One moment seeing the Fire-breathing Zombie opening its mouth, the next feeling the scorching sensation!
Liao Youzhi moved while shouting, but his speed was no match for the flame’s swiftness. The fire spewed from the zombie’s mouth was exceedingly rapid...
Gong Chengming’s situation was worse than Liao Youzhi’s. He had his back to the box truck, only saw Liao Youzhi’s eyes change dramatically, and before he could react, the flame rushing from behind smacked his back hard, pushing him into a stumble.
The Vanguard Corps squad suffered with him. During Liao Youzhi’s terrifying moment, they turned their backs on the muzzles ahead, greeting the roaring flames...
"Why does he know the code, why would he kill me..."
Gong Chengming couldn’t even think through all the whys before falling to the ground, his remaining consciousness rapidly dissipating.
Generally, someone caught in a raging fire would struggle desperately to extinguish the flames on their body, but this time it was different. The shadows in the flames toppled over within two seconds and began to curl up...
The fire dragon rampaged through, sweeping over two cars, which likewise couldn’t withstand the flames.
No one knew what fueled those flames, but metal-crafted cars collapsed and melted in the inferno like wax statues, finally emitting a not-so-intense explosion, as if the fire dragon churned for a moment, creating a stunning visual impact!
The air was filled with scorching heat, as if suddenly changing from minus thirty degrees in deep winter to the height of summer in June, yet without any peculiar smell, possibly because the intense heat carried the odor away with the rising draft...
Everyone present was dumbfounded. This shocking change caught everyone off guard, even making them forget about the Corpse Transformation Bomb Liao Youzhi had mentioned earlier.
On the other side of the potholed road, the people from Celestial Horse Island also looked at each other. They knew Zhang Su’s purpose was to eliminate Liao Youzhi, but this...
This wasn’t as simple as just taking down Liao Youzhi; it was clearing out his loyal followers and the faction members of his second-in-command, Gong Chengming, in one fell swoop!
"Gong Chengming probably never imagined that all his schemes to seize Liao Youzhi’s position would result in both of them walking hand in hand to the Path to the Underworld."
Chen Hanzhou spoke of hellish jokes...
"Brother Su is truly like King Yama now." Lu Yubo beamed brightly.
The decapitation plan was a great success, meaning this battle was nearing its end, which was undoubtedly good news for those who survived!
Furious pillars of fire spanned across the street, but they didn’t completely engulf Liao Youzhi’s group and Gong Chengming’s followers. The two groups were initially positioned in a semicircle, and with the Guard Team members hesitating, those on the flanks who reacted quickly dove aside in time, narrowly escaping disaster.
There’s a saying, you can’t dodge the fifteenth day of the month forever; as they had no time to celebrate evading the deadly flames, a slender, floating steel rod silently approached.
In their panic, the Guard Team members retreating from the fiery hell were powerless to resist. Ju Mumio, wielding a slender steel rod, dashed over to the three of them. With a flash of cold light, she first knocked their weapons away, then slit their throats, executing the entire maneuver smoothly and efficiently.
Three Guard Team members fell into a pool of blood, their eyes filled with a longing for life.
Ju Mumio accurately executed Zhang Su’s orders, showing no mercy to these people. Yet she still adhered to her principles, opting not to use firearms, and effortlessly dealt with the three who escaped from the south.
The two Guard Team members who fled from the north side of the fire dragon fared no better. They reacted quickly, rolling to the ground and immediately attempting to sneak up on Zhang Su from behind the big truck. Unfortunately, their speed was no match for bullets.
Bang! Bang, bang!
After three shots rang out, as the two leaned forward in a burst of speed, blood trickled out from their skulls...
Tan Huajun and Yuwen lowered their rifles. In fact, both targets were neutralized by Tan Huajun; Yuwen’s bullet only hit one man’s shoulder and was not lethal.
In the distance, the members of the Little Eagle Association and Apocalypse Corps were totally stunned. As everyone looked around at each other, no one could have anticipated things would escalate to this point. The leaders and other members of the two groups stood rooted in place, their CPUs seemingly frozen.
Liu Yao, who prided himself on his ruthless and unpredictable ways, found his mouth dry. He couldn’t tell if it was due to the blazing fire or the chill creeping through his heart, but it was only when the flames claimed over twenty lives in an instant that he understood what true ruthlessness was, where actions spoke louder than words.
Yang Xinqi’s lips twitched, his mouth opened and closed as he muttered something unintelligible, but from his expression, it was obvious he was terrified.
Li Zongkai leaned against a car, twisting his neck to peer through the window at the flame-engulfed area. The pickup truck equipped with big speakers had completely melted in the inferno...
Zhang Xin and the members of the Survivor Alliance who had previously escaped to the side stood dumbfounded. Their leader was in the fire, and so was the deputy leader, likely not surviving, leaving them leaderless from now on!
The Survivor Alliance didn’t know what to do...
Shoot?
At whom? At Zhang Su in the truck’s cabin?
Due to the angle, they couldn’t see anyone. Even if they rushed over, should the truck make a turn, there would be no way out for them. Moreover, the numerous Celestial Horse Island members opposite were not to be trifled with!
Escape?
Once again, the same problem, most vehicles were within the fire-breathing zombie’s attack range. Without a word from King Yama, it would be best not to act rashly.
The final choice, wait and see...
