Armed Train in the Apocalypse
Chapter 512 - 318: Fool
When a large gathering of zombies accumulates in the area, a leader emerges who can command the other zombies. He could be any type or tier of zombie, but when he possesses this ability, he is bestowed with the title of "Lord."
The instant the Lady of the House appeared, the tide of zombies below halted their attack. Even those shredded by heavy machine guns only made the sound of flesh and bone shattering, without any roar, like knights with the most steadfast will, awaiting the Lord’s review.
The body of the Tier Two Butcher is already tall enough, with elites reaching up to six meters, being able to directly see the second floor while standing downstairs.
But the stature of the Lady of the House is even taller, sitting on the Butcher’s shoulder, her gemstone-clear eyes perfectly reflecting the man sitting on the roof of the train, the most dangerous of all invading creatures.
Su Huan raised his hand, and the roaring artillery and anti-aircraft machine guns simultaneously ceased fire.
The bright world instantly dimmed.
Only a faint blue tone remained, gradually growing darker.
Humans and zombies stood silently opposed in this darkening blue tone.
"Is this... a zombie?" 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
He Jie’s voice was somewhat hoarse, as if he had a bundle of fire stuck in his throat.
"Yes, Tier Three."
"Can we defeat it?"
"It will take a bit of time."
"How long?"
"Ten minutes."
Su Huan supported himself on the roof of the vehicle with both hands behind him, looking up. He didn’t know if his vision had improved or if humans had become fewer, but the sky was much cleaner, and he could now see the stars.
He glanced at Li Xinlong, who frequently looked towards Jiang Rong, and said lightly, "Go do whatever you want to do."
Li Xinlong’s eyes shifted slightly, nodded, and ran towards Jiang Rong’s direction.
On the other side, He Jie was silent for a moment, "I shouldn’t have gotten on your damned vehicle back then."
Su Huan retorted, "Did you have a choice?"
Maybe feeling threatened or provoked, the Lady of the House let out a sharp scream, and the tide of zombies surged toward the train like boiling waves. This time, it was no longer a tentative attack; hundreds and thousands of Tier One Night Demons crawled over the heads of ordinary zombies, launching an assault on the train like an army.
In the instant they encountered the train, their terrifying roars hit an invisible defense line, suppressed silently by Yu Yue’s Ability.
Behind Su Huan, He Jie roared as loud as thunder, "It’s time for you to give the order, Conductor!"
Su Huan had just stood up when a dynamic piece of music played from the train, becoming louder and more resonant as the volume increased.
"This is the music of victory." Su Huan stood on the edge of the train, looking at the ferocious zombies below wanting to devour his flesh, an inner joy spreading across his face, "Whose underling has such taste?"
"Oh, it’s mine."
The moment the lyrics began, accompanied by laughter, the conductor leapt from the edge.
Like crazed fans, the zombies jumped from the tide, greedily trying to touch the hem of his clothes.
"I ain’t your average sicko"
"I’m dead, just like disco"
In an instant, the bluish light passed through the spot where the conductor stood, and traveled hundreds of meters straight for the Lady of the House’s "Crown."
Meanwhile, the sniper behind the scope had already changed position, cocking the gun rhythmically with the music, eyes cast downward.
"My bank account is 000, oh no"
"I think I need a hero (Oh)"
"..."
In the next moment, a bright white lightning surged from the zombie tide under the train, like a waterfall bursting from the abyss beneath the earth, defying the heavens.
The entire battlefield was illuminated brilliantly by this lightning, hundreds of Tier One Night Demons that had just boarded the train instantly died. The currents rapidly spread from the point of combat, unleashing the energy that had been brewed for a long time to the fullest extent, covering an eight hundred meter range.
Lightning traversed the dry air swiftly, forming two bright Thunder Pools between the ground and sky, with fine electric sparks darting quickly between them. At the very center of the Thunder Pool was Su Huan, with his entire body wrapped in bright white electricity.
The hair tie had long disappeared, his full head of black hair floating on his shoulders with the violent current, a smile on his lips, eyes blazing white, god-like.
Feeling the threat, the porcelain-white face of the Lady of the House suddenly sprouted three equidistant cracks at the sides.
The lightning seemed to feel a call, winding and meandering at the crack, then being devoured, slowly converging into a thick lightning beam, the transparent vine strips behind her head glowing a ghostly blue as well.
"Hey, it can swallow lightning too."
The smile on Su Huan’s face grew deeper, yet the space between his outstretched arms harbored terrifying energy fluctuations.
The scorching heat directly ignited the shirt on his upper body, flames rising, coiling around him like a dragon or snake, revealing his inch-by-inch robust physique. The zombies just stunned by the electricity hadn’t even gotten up before they found the only remaining fabric on their bodies starting to burn.
The lightning gradually dissipated without energy support, and the Thunder Pool grew thin under the absorption of the Tier Three Queen.
The zombies guarding the Lady of the House frantically launched an attack on Su Huan.
But faster than them, cutting through hundreds of meters of zombie tide, was the three-meter-long fire spear.
"Boom——"
"Quite the glutton."
A sharp explosion rang out from the flames.
From the spreading Thunder Pool to the explosive fire spear, everything happened too quickly, so quickly that Yu Yue could only fire a shot, and Xiaozhao inside the train had just removed his hand from the volume button.
Compared to the outside battle, the crew inside the train were equally busy with tension.
Although the weapons on the train had been automated, in the absence of fully developed artificial intelligence, it still required staff to select and operate targets.
