Chapter 969: Scarlet Reaper, one against a million!
"Wipe them out!"
With a single thought from Yue Zhong, a number of cannons emerged from the frame of the Scarlet Reaper, shooting out countless laser beams that penetrated the heads of those hundreds of zombies, all according to his will.
After those beams shot through, the mini rockets that accompanied the beams directly exploded, causing those aerial zombies to burst apart.
"Amazing! Is this the power of the Heart of Hope as well as the Enhanced Mechanization ability? This is remarkable!"
Yue Zhong saw how easily it was to wipe out those hundreds of zombies, and felt elated. It was even easier than killing an ant.
The Scarlet Reaper then flapped its wings, turning into a bright red beam that shot towards the sky.
"Kill them all!"
He swept a glance over the countless aerial zombies, and with a burst of killing intent, the wings on his back flashed brightly. The next moment, dense laser beams shot out from the wings, hitting the countless zombies as though every single beam had eyes.
Hong! Hong! Hong!
As the explosions rang out, over a hundred thousand zombies were directly decimated. They disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, falling out of the sky.
Shit, is he still human? If things continue like this, Leader can wipe out those zombies by himself, right?"
"..."
Seeing how Yue Zhong was piloting the Scarlet Reaper to massacre the zombies, everyone inside the Sky Fortress stared wide-eyed. Some soldiers even cussed out in their fear and awe.
The might of the Scarlet Reaper was simply too terrifying. It was able to instantly attack thousands of enemies, causing their heads to explode. Such strength far surpassed logic. Everyone continued to rub their eyes, unsure if their sight was failing them.
Chen Yan looked at Yue Zhong piloting the Scarlet Reaper to slaughter the zombies and his body trembled with excitement, as he roared out with laughter, "Strong!! This strength is almost impossible on Earth!! Mech Fighters can reach this type of level?! Truly, other than Leader, no one else can do it!! Haha!! Only Leader can create such miracles!!"
Niu Jin and the rest saw for themselves the astonishing sight and their minds were blown, "Shit!! That’s awesome!! Is he still human?! What an overpowered person!!"
Liu Yue Mei looked at Yue Zhong and sighed in her heart, "Powerful. He should be using technology from another world. That world has far surpassed us."
She had good relations with the various close subordinates in the capital, thus, she knew that Yue Zhong had left for another world to fight for them. Seeing such an overpowered equipment, she could guess where it came from.
Yin Shuang stared at him, her face flashing a bright smile, "Father is so strong!! He is truly Yin Shuang’s father! What a display!! Yin Shuang will become as powerful as Father!!"
After wiping out 150,000 zombies with the Scarlet Reaper, Yue Zhong finally felt a hint of exhaustion.
Right at this time, he willed a single thought, and inserted 5 Type 5 nuclei and a Type 6 one into the chest area, feeling a strong surge of energy that coursed through him, boundless and unending.
What was a Type 6 Mutant Beast? It was an existence that was an Overlord in the 3rd World, almost invincible. Other than the Type 7 Mutant Beasts, even Type 7 Divine Warriors might not necessarily be able to kill a Type 6 Mutant Beast. Every single one of them could cause a calamity or disaster, and their strength was something to behold.
In the endless seas of the 3rd World, each time the Type 6 Mutant Beasts had to eat, they would consume over tens of thousands of other Mutant Beasts. If they raged, they could go on a rampage to kill tens of thousands of Mutant Beasts as well. Their strength was no joke.
It was precisely due to relying on the Type 6 Nucleus that Yue Zhong could single-handedly kill over a hundred thousand zombies.
The aerial zombies could sense Yue Zhong’s threat to themselves as well, and quickly pounced towards him.
Right at that moment, a blanket of laser beams shot past them, and they all burst apart, showering towards the ground.
While the hundreds and thousands of zombies seemed endless, Yue Zhong’s control of the Scarlet Reaper’s laser beams also seemed boundless.
At the same time, with every single zombie he killed, the pure life force energy would be absorbed by the God and Devil Imprint, channeling into his body, strengthening it slowly but surely.
Both sides came to a standstill, however, those zombies that had gotten on the deck of the Sky Fortress were wiped out cleanly by Yue Zhong.
The situation continued for a while before the remaining 200,000 zombies could not take it anymore and were forced to retreat.
These flying zombies were also considered the elite of the hordes, if they were to be wiped out, then the horde would lose a great asset.
Aerial battles were tougher than land battles. Such a logic was also understood by the intelligence zombies.
"You want to escape? It’s too late! Today will mark your deaths, beasts!"
Yue Zhong gazed at the fleeing aerial zombies, and his eyes flashed with a cold light. He piloted the Scarlet Reaper to chase after them with the speed of a shooting star.
Countless laser beams fell upon the zombie horde, striking them down where they stood.
All of a sudden, the horde split apart, intending to flee in 2 different directions.
"Smart! It’s too bad, you’re too late!!"
Yue Zhong’s gaze swept across them and fell upon the right side, noting one particular intelligent evolved zombie that bore a 90% resemblance to humans, albeit with a pair of fleshy wings.
This particular evolved zombie was called Jiang Sheng and had already reached the Type 5 realm. When Yue Zhong’s gaze fell upon him, he could feel an overwhelming sense of crisis.
He did not dare tarry and quickly flapped his wings, fleeing at a speed of Mach-2.
The Scarlet Reaper flapped its wings once, and a huge tornado was generated behind it, pushing it towards Jiang Sheng with a speed of Mach-5.
Due to the terrifying speed of the Scarlet Reaper, there was a powerful resistance from the air itself, causing its frame to heat up, looking as though it had come out from a furnace.
In a breath, the Scarlet Reaper had appeared right in front of Jiang Sheng with sizzling heat. It reached out with its massive hands and grabbed Jiang Sheng.
The next moment, a sharp alloy blade shot out from inside the hand, piercing Jiang Sheng.
The sharp alloy blade that flashed and shot out an electrical current that slammed into Jiang Sheng’s body.
"Ah!!!!"
Buffeted by those merciless attacks, the intelligent evolved zombie Jiang Sheng let out a miserable scream.
These life forms were new biological entities, thus, their senses and perception were more evolved than the ordinary zombies. They knew pain, emotions, different from those ordinary zombies that knew no pain nor feelings.
Jiang Sheng was a Type 5 expert, but under the circumstances of having its body pierced, as well as the electrical surge, it resisted for a quite a while, before turning weak, entering a near-death state.
A Type 5 Puppet Rune then shot out from the Scarlet Reaper, entering Jiang Sheng’s head.
When it entered, another electrical current shot through his body, destroying his final resistance, allowing the Puppet Rune to fuse into his mind.
The Type 5 Puppet Rune quickly worked its effects, and the weakened Jiang Sheng came up to Yue Zhong, declaring, "Jiang Sheng greets Master!"
Yue Zhong asked, "Are you the master of this zombie horde?"
Type 5 Divine Warriors were all terrifying existence, with the qualifications to lead a million-strong horde. At that time, had Feng Bo and the rest continue to evolve, they would have reached the Type 5 stage by now as well.
Jiang Sheng replied honestly, "No! I’m just one of the 3 generals. I’m in charge of the 600,000 aerial zombies. The true leader of this horde is called Hu Man, and he’s much stronger than me. He’s in charge of 5 million zombies. The other 2 generals are called Liu Xiong, and Gui Can. They’re in charge of 2 million zombies each and their strength is similar to mine."
"3 Type 5 experts eh?"
Yue Zhong sighed, and with a thought, the remaining energy of the Scarlet Reaper was presented in his eyes.
"To kill 400,000 energy consumption 40%. That is to say, the Scarlet Reaper’s limit is a million zombie? The remaining 60% should be enough to deal with 3 Type 5 experts."
The Scarlet Reaper relied on the Type 6 Nucleus for power, hence it was not truly limitless. There was a threshold. However, the fact that it could decimate a million zombies meant that its power could not be expended that easily usually.
Yue Zhong gave Jiang Sheng an order, "Take me to Hu Man!"
"Yes! Master!"
Jiang Sheng responded obediently and flapped his wings towards the deeper part of the horde.
