92: Chapter 92 Each Displays Their Unique Abilities
The fourth person's palm lit up with purple light; it was a Lightning Element.
He set up a layer of electric net above Jin Yuanbao's head. The electric net crackled, and the lasers that shot onto it were deflected, absorbed, and dissipated.
Four people, four types of Superpower, four types of coordination—truly extravagant.
A few seconds later, Jin Yuanbao slid to the end of the passage.
He stopped, turned around, waved at Wang Lin, and then turned and walked into that black door.
Those four people also withdrew their Superpower, filed in one by one, and disappeared into that door.
On the other side, a dozen people walked out from the Holy See's team.
They were all wearing white armor.
The person in the lead was none other than Lu Zhiyi.
Her gaze passed through the crowd, landed on Wang Lin, and paused for a moment.
Then she withdrew her gaze and walked towards the passage.
Those dozen people followed behind her, their steps neat and uniform.
Lu Zhiyi stood at the entrance of the passage and slowly closed her eyes.
Someone nearby saw this and immediately said, "Look, she closed her eyes. What kind of move is this? Blindfolded clearance?"
No one answered.
Then Lu Zhiyi moved.
She took a step, her foot landing on the ground, her body leaning slightly forward, her center of gravity switching back and forth between her left and right feet, as if she were dancing.
Her body flipped in the air like a white butterfly.
Her body bounced off the wall and onto the ceiling like a hanging bat.
Her movements were calm; every step landed in the gaps where the lasers swept, and every movement was just right, not a fraction more, not a millisecond less.
She jumped from the ceiling to the wall, then from the wall back to the ground.
She wasn't dodging the lasers; she was dancing with them.
The lasers were her dance partners; one person and the light, rotating, jumping, and flying within the passage.
The dozen people behind her repeated her movements.
Identical steps, identical movements, identical rhythm.
They stepped on the exact spots she had occupied the second before.
Following behind her like layers of shadows, their movements were uniform.
Eventually, they passed through the passage, one after another.
Lu Zhiyi walked at the very front, without looking back, her pace never stopping.
The dozen people behind her also disappeared.
The people around them were dumbfounded.
"Holy crap... one leading ten?"
"The Holy See... truly not simple."
"They didn't use any Superpower, they passed the laser passage just by footwork?"
At this moment, the church's iron door was being pounded by zombies.
Densely packed, pounding like drumbeats.
From outside came the dense sounds of zombies, hissing, screaming, and roaring.
There was no time left, no retreat.
Seeing this, the crowd no longer held back.
A member of the Circus stood out.
He was wearing colorful clothes, a red nose, and a big mouth, smiling like a split watermelon.
He raised his hand, palm facing forward.
Five balls of flame flew out from his palm.
They lined up in a straight line, extending from the entrance of the passage to the end, like five road signs.
Then he jumped; his body flipped in the air like an acrobat.
He jumped toward the nearest ball of flame, his body turning into a ball of fire the moment it touched the flame, then emerging from the next ball of flame like a fire snake.
His Speed was so fast that those lasers couldn't catch up to him or hit him.
This was a skill that only a Level 5 fire-element Esper could master: [Flame Leap].
He jumped five times, from the first ball of flame to the second, from the second to the third... all the way to the fifth...
Then he stood at the end of the passage.
The others also moved.
Those Level 5 and Level 6 fire-element Espers followed the five balls of flame and jumped across.
Their movements were identical to the first person's.
At this moment, the big door was smashed open.
A large swarm of zombies poured in.
They hissed, screamed, and roared as they pounced toward the crowd.
Seeing this, the crowd no longer held back and poured toward the passage.
Some were pushed down, trampled, and crushed.
Some climbed up and kept running.
Those Ice Element Espers were also running.
While running, they used their Superpower to conjure ice walls behind them to block the zombies.
But they forgot that there were still flames in the passage.
When they used their Ice Ability, the cold spread, frost expanded, and it extinguished the flames on the ground.
Those Espers who were still leaping within the flames were forced out.
They had no time to react or dodge, and the lasers pierced through their bodies.
Their bodies turned into countless fragments, scattering on the ground.
No one stopped, no one looked back, and certainly no one said "sorry."
The group of people behind was in complete chaos.
Some rushed forward by stepping on others' corpses, some grabbed the shoulders of the people in front to gain leverage, and some were pushed down, trampled, and crushed into meat paste by the people behind.
An Earth Element Esper raised a stone wall at the entrance of the passage, wanting to block the people behind and let himself pass first.
The stone wall had just risen halfway when it was slashed open by a Wind Element Esper behind.
The two of them grappled together and were simultaneously shredded by the lasers.
A lightning-element Esper, his body wreathed in electric arcs, tried to use currents to interfere with the trajectory of the lasers.
The lasers did deflect by a few degrees, but only a few, grazing his shoulder and slicing off his entire arm.
He screamed, stumbled forward a few steps, and then had half his skull sliced off by the next laser.
A Speed-type Level 6 charged the fastest.
He didn't block the lasers, didn't dodge the lasers, just ran.
His Speed was so fast that those lasers couldn't catch up to him, so fast that the lasers could only leave streaks of afterimages behind him.
He ran to the end of the passage, rushed into that black door, and never looked back.
A defense-type Level 5 activated his full-body metalization, hard-tanking the lasers as he walked inside.
The lasers hit him, burning out charred dents, and he gritted his teeth, inching forward step by step.
When he reached two-thirds of the way, his metalization shattered.
He knelt on the ground, reached out, and shouted "save me" to the people in front, but no one looked back.
The next laser sliced off his neck.
...
Zombies poured in like a tide from the smashed iron door.
The lasers in the passage were still cutting silently, like the Grim Reaper's scythe.
Everyone rushed toward the passage.
There were still some who didn't move, such as Wang Lin.
He stood in place, his hands in his pockets.
His gaze passed through the crowd and landed on Liu Kun on the other side of the church.
Liu Kun on the opposite side also didn't move.
He leaned against the wall, his gaze also landing on Wang Lin.
The two of them just stared at each other like that.
In Liu Kun's eyes, Wang Lin was a must-kill existence.
It was because of Wang Lin that the Blood Tooth Mercenary Group had disbanded.
Not only did he kill Zhou Ying, but he also killed his own leader, and even insulted the leader's corpse.
And he even extracted the two's abilities.
This debt, it wasn't that it wouldn't be repaid, it was just that the time hadn't come, and now, the time for revenge had arrived.
