167: It's time to end
Inside the City.
On the high-rise where the cold wind raged, Luo Lei was still sitting cross-legged.
Just by looking at the sweat on his forehead, one could understand that the anxiety in his heart had reached its peak!
"Ding~ Host reminder, the main battlefield in the North District, the South City wall has been breached."
"The Zombie tide has poured into the City."
Luo Lei knew the time wouldn't be long.
But when the time truly arrived, he only felt that the chessboard in his hand was so heavy!
An entire night, ten hours.
He didn't lose focus for a moment, almost completely investing all his energy into it!
But...
The profoundness on this chessboard, let alone comprehending it, he hadn't even managed to grasp it!
For the second time, he felt a strong sense of frustration.
The previous time.
It was when he carried the hopes of all Humans, but ultimately lost the battle.
This time, he clearly possessed a chessboard that could turn the tide of the battle, but due to insufficient comprehension, he missed the opportunity and was about to watch five million people die before his eyes!
"How could this happen?" His hands holding the chessboard turned white from gripping, Luo Lei had no calmness left.
"Now... it's already too late, isn't it? As expected, I'm still unworthy, no wonder my son also said I'm a waste."
Opening his eyes, a night of intense concentration left him a bit more tired.
However.
Just as various negative emotions flooded Luo Lei's heart, and his disappointment in himself reached its peak.
His gaze suddenly focused... his sight returned to the chessboard in the book.
Instantly, the unremarkable chessboard, waves of rule aura seemed to resonate, constantly bursting forth!
For Luo Lei, at this moment, the entire World seemed different!
Ye Tian in the System space could clearly see it at this moment.
Luo Lei's original comprehension value of 10 points, during this period, surged wildly!
10 points, 100 points, 1000 points, 10,000 points, 100,000 points, until finally, it surged to 1,000,000 points of comprehension!
Under the terrifying comprehension, in just two breaths, Luo Lei closed his eyes again.
He instantly grasped the chessboard!
"It still has to be the Heavenly Dao," Ye Tian sighed endlessly, watching the wildly stirring rule fluctuations on the chessboard.
...
...
The shattered South City wall became a large gap for the Zombies to pour in.
In the air not far away.
The five Diamond level Protectors of the Dawn Organization, upon seeing Second Elder shot down, were all furious!
"We'll fight you to the death!"
The five Protectors had completely given their all.
Even knowing they couldn't defeat the opponent...
"Even at your peak strength, you are like ants in my eyes, and in this state, you can be killed with a casual wave." Left Envoy in the air said slowly, her words full of disdain.
As the sound fell, a huge sonic boom instantly erupted beneath the female Zombie's feet!
Under the power boost exceeding the speed of sound, this sixth-order Zombie, which had undergone the transformation stage, slammed towards the five Diamond Martial Artists!
At the same time, a virus Domain containing endless death energy spread out.
"Boom boom boom!"
There was nothing fancy.
Just the simplest collision, and in an instant, the five Diamond powerhouses in the sky were torn apart and thrown to the ground like pieces of rags...
Left Envoy was a sixth-order Zombie, and there was a fundamental difference between her and these fifth-order Diamond Martial Artists!
...
The strongest group of people on the battlefield were dealt with by the Zombies in less than a minute.
Everyone who witnessed this scene felt only constantly growing despair.
"Hmm? An interesting little fellow." After dealing with the five Diamond Martial Artists, Left Envoy's gaze suddenly fell upon a young man who was constantly running towards the City.
Not for anything else.
Only because the other party was carrying Mo Tiancang, whom she had severely injured with a sneak attack, and rapidly fleeing towards the City.
"A low-level Martial Artist, still thinking of saving someone?" With a playful smile, Left Envoy stepped through the void, crushing the air as she did, and almost instantly closed in behind Luo Kai, who was fleeing!
At this moment, the warning in Luo Kai's heart jumped to the extreme!
However, the other party did not attack directly, but said: "Little friend, since you want to save people so much, then this Left Envoy will give you a chance."
The female Zombie said, looking towards the interior of the North District: "I can spare the Humans within two kilometers around you, and only the people within two kilometers around you in this North District can live."
"You have three minutes, you know."
The tone containing teasing made Luo Kai take a deep look at the other party.
After that, he ran towards the City without saying a word.
The Zombie tide had already poured into the North District.
To those with discerning eyes, the entire North District had already fallen!
Being able to protect a few more people in a fallen City should be considered a blessing in misfortune, right?
Only three minutes!
Luo Kai's speed was extremely fast.
To protect, one naturally had to go to the City center with the densest population.
When he rushed here, there were still many people in the City who were nervous and anxious, but didn't know what was happening outside the City.
Luo Kai's arrival caused many people to gather.
And when the crowd saw Mo Tiancang being carried on the young man's back, they all showed fear in their eyes.
"Oh Heaven! Isn't this our Purple Crystal level Martial Artist Lord?!"
"How could this happen? How could a powerhouse of this level end up like this?!"
"It's over, the Purple Crystal level Martial Artist Lord is severely injured and unconscious, what can we do?!"
"Time's up, have you decided?" In the air, the female Zombie's voice appeared.
These words instantly silenced the noisy street.
Luo Kai, however, furrowed his brow: "Will you really guarantee their safety?"
"Of course... not."
Left Envoy suddenly chuckled playfully: "You're too naive, on the contrary, I plan to kill the people around you first!"
His fists clenched with a "crackling" sound, but Luo Kai had absolutely no way against that sixth-order Zombie!
He was still too weak, truly too weak!
Just then, Mo Tiancang, who had been placed aside to rest, gradually woke up.
"Kid, run, run towards outside the City." The Old Man, enduring his broken ribs, took a deep breath and stood up: "I can hold her off for you for some time."
"You?"
Luo Kai trembled all over.
If Ye Tian was nearby, seeing this scene, he would definitely say that the original plot was unfolding.
In the original work, it was indeed Mo Tiancang who tragically died while covering Luo Kai's escape before his death.
However, that was under the premise of knowing that Luo Kai was the Savior.
Now that Luo Kai was not the Savior, yet was still worth Mo Tiancang sacrificing his life for him, one had to say, the plot's self-repairing ability was strong.
Under the gaze of the people.
Mo Tiancang, who had just woken up from a coma, was once again covered all over by pieces of Purple Crystal battle armor that had dimmed considerably in radiance!
"Hehehe, thinking of buying time for others to escape?"
Left Envoy shook her head slightly: "Before escaping, you should also understand your own situation."
The moment her voice fell, three fifth-order Zombies appeared directly beside her!
"Can't escape..."
"These Zombies, the book records say they are all in the fifth order!"
"As expected, the higher-ups have abandoned us, we originally had no chance of surviving."
The surrounding citizens all showed despair in their eyes.
Zombie roars had already appeared one after another in the City, and despair had accumulated to the extreme in everyone's hearts!
"Wasting my time for a whole night, it's time to end this."
Left Envoy's black lips curved up, her pinhole pupils giving off a chilling feeling at all times.
And just as her words fell, another majestic voice appeared.
"Yes, it is time to end this!"
In the higher Heaven, illuminated by the dawn light rising on the horizon, a Black Robe figure was like the light of the entire World.
"That is!!"
In the entire City, the gazes of millions of despairing people instantly focused there!
