56: Breakout II

The four Zombies had already arrived near the Tank, but the machine gunner on the Tank ignored them and did not shoot at them.

And the Tank had stopped, turning its direction in place.

"This is bad, these are probably Mental Mutated Zombies with control skills; the warriors in the Tank are likely controlled by them."

Qin Shilei instantly understood the Mutated Zombies' plan.

They were preparing to control the four Tanks at the very front, making those Tanks attack the eight Tanks behind them.

Once they succeeded, humanity would not only lose these twelve Tanks, but the Zombies would also use the controlled Tanks to reclaim the several hundred meters of breakthrough passage that had been hard-won, and it would further threaten the humans behind them.

Using arrows was too late, so Qin Shilei, with a thought, took out a rocket launcher.

He fired a rocket at the empty space between two Tanks.

Then, without waiting for the rocket launcher to automatically reload, he took out one of his only two rockets from his ring, loaded it, and fired another rocket at the empty space between the other two Tanks.

"Boom! Boom!"

Two rockets exploded one after another, creating two large craters on the asphalt road next to the Tanks.

Although the four Mutated Zombies were not dead, they were disoriented and had more than ten wounds oozing viscous blood.

It was precisely because of this that their control over the warriors inside the Tanks was released.

"Strike while the iron is hot."

Qin Shilei once again took out his short bow and unleashed a barrage of arrows, engulfing the Mutated Zombies.

Having advanced to the Bronze Realm, his archery speed had increased again, reaching eight arrows per second.

"Boss, are we stealing the kill?"

Cuntou, while taking out a pistol from his ring and pointing it at the Mutated Zombies, asked Tang Haotian.

"We are killing Zombies for everyone's breakthrough, how can it be called stealing a kill?"

Tang Haotian straightened his face and said solemnly.

Upon hearing this, the elites of Apocalypse Home all took out their ranged attack weapons and rushed towards the Mutated Zombies while attacking.

At this moment, Qin Shilei had already shot dead two Mutated Zombies that were stunned by the explosion and was shooting at the third Zombie.

The remaining two Mutated Zombies, seeing that the situation was unfavorable, turned around and fled into the distance.

But before they had even run ten meters, one of the Mutated Zombies fell to the ground with a thud, unable to move anymore.

Qin Shilei bent down, preparing to put the bodies of the two Mutated Zombies and the qingtong treasure chest next to the Tank into his spatial ring.

"Where do you think you're going?" Tang Haotian swept past Qin Shilei in a gust of wind, instantly arriving beside the third Mutated Zombie that had just been shot dead, and bent down to pick up the qingtong treasure chest.

"Whoosh!" Suddenly, the sound of an arrow piercing the air came from behind him.

Tang Haotian reluctantly stood up, performed a spinning slash, and deflected the rapidly approaching arrow with his sword.

"How dare you shoot our Family Head."

"Kill him."

"Put down our treasure chest."

As Qin Shilei bent down and snatched away the body of the third Mutated Zombie and the qingtong treasure chest, angry shouts came from the Apocalypse Home members behind him.

The rocket launcher reappeared in Qin Shilei's hand, and he turned to aim at the group of Apocalypse Home elites.

If it weren't to save face for the high-ranking military officials behind him, he would have definitely blasted them with a single shot.

Being targeted by the rocket launcher, that group of elites instantly felt their hair stand on end and abruptly stopped their frantic charge.

"Put down the rocket launcher, otherwise, the moment you pull the trigger will be the moment you meet your demise."

Tang Haotian's face was full of murderous intent as he said coldly.

Now he was less than three meters away from Qin Shilei, and he didn't believe that an archer could dodge his sword at such a short distance.

Qin Shilei smiled slightly and said, "Want to try?"

"Two experts, can you please move aside first? Those Zombies are about to come over."

Just then, a warrior emerged from a nearby Tank and shouted loudly to Qin Shilei and the others.

Qin Shilei nodded at the warrior, stomped his foot, and floated back.

"Give us back our Mutated Zombies."

"Shameless bandit, he actually stole our spoils of war."

"Let's fight him."

The shouts of the Apocalypse Home members could still be heard from behind him.

Qin Shilei ignored the sounds behind him and jumped directly onto the roof of a bulldozer.

The view here was open, and he could react in time if any unexpected situation occurred again; the only drawback was that it was too noisy and bumpy.

The Tanks continued to charge forward, the bulldozers simply repaired the large craters made by the rockets, and then cleared the Zombies.

As for the last Mutated Zombie that had escaped, it never reappeared, but the Zombie horde ahead became more frantic and organized, slowing the Tank's advance by a fraction.

There were also occasional casualties among the warriors on both defensive lines.

Two elites from Apocalypse Home also died.

Perhaps because their teammates died, they blamed Qin Shilei, occasionally casting hostile glances at Qin Shilei on the bulldozer.

Suddenly, Qin Shilei felt a chill spread from his tailbone all the way to the back of his head.

A bullet flew rapidly towards his head from afar.

Qin Shilei, with a flash of intuition, tilted his head, avoiding a headshot.

He pushed off with his foot, jumped down from the top of the bulldozer, and quickly shot an arrow in mid-air.

"Ah." A Apocalypse Home elite holding a rifle in the distance let out a tragic cry, then fell down unwillingly, clutching the sharp arrow embedded in his chest.

"Bastard, how dare you kill our people."

"Kill him."

"Everyone use guns."

Those among the Apocalypse Home members who had guns took them out, while those without guns performed serpentine movements, closing in on Qin Shilei.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

Qin Shilei shot eight arrows per second, killing eight people who had already taken out their firearms one by one, then dodged to the other side of the bulldozer.

"Da da da!"

A military officer not far away, leading dozens of warriors, simultaneously fired their guns into the sky as a warning, "Stop! Whoever moves again, we will shoot them."

Facing rows of dark muzzles, the Apocalypse Home elites reluctantly stopped.

They looked back and saw that eight of their teammates had been shot dead in an instant.

Everyone was instantly terrified, grateful that they were not the unlucky ones targeted.

What serpentine movements, what rifle volleys, in front of such a divine archer, everything was nonsense.

The only chance was to sneak up to him before he noticed.

"Apocalypse Home members, retreat to within five hundred meters of the front of the passage and assist in defending the passage."

The military officer pointed his gun at the Apocalypse Home members and ordered.

"Good, very good."

Tang Haotian looked at the military officer with fire in his eyes and said coldly, "Protecting a murderer who killed nine of our people, I hope you don't leave the main force."

Qin Shilei stepped out from behind the bulldozer and chuckled, "He saved your lives, yet you still unfairly blame the officer, truly like a dog biting Lu Dongbin, not recognizing a good heart."

Seeing Tang Haotian still wanting to rush towards Qin Shilei, the military officer again commanded, "Stop!"

He paused, then added, "My eyes aren't blind, I saw it clearly; your people shot at him first."

"Want to try? I bet you won't be able to reach me."

Qin Shilei had already drawn his bow to its full extent, aiming it at Tang Haotian.
