Chapter 401 - Spoiler (1/2)
The “wall” the monsters formed squirmed nonstop and turned into a “cliff”.
This cliff symbolized death, and in the next second, it would collapse in the face of the hundreds of survivors.
Lu Siya was very anxious, and she whispered to Meng Chao, “Hey, aren’t you really good at creating miracles? Do you have a way to flee to safety?”
“Well, I do have a very immature method.” Meng Chao thought about it for a while before he shook his head and said, “Forget it, it’s impossible.”
“We’re already at this point of time, so why are you still acting like some old biddy?” Lu Siya said anxiously. “No matter what method it is, we have to use it as a last ditch attempt! Hurry up and tell me what it is!”
“Alright, I’ll tell you,” Meng Chao thought about it and said, “Big Sis Ya, you’re a Heaven Realm superhuman. There are also a few Heaven Realm superhumans here too. Even though most of them use their spirit energy to strengthen their brains and are in the field of academics, which means they’re weak, they will still have mastered maglev. They can break free of gravity and slowly levitate in the air.
“Then we can do this. First, you activate your abilities and float.”
When he was halfway through his plan, he came to a stop.
“Then?” Lu Siya was going to die of anxiety.
“Then, I’ll jump up and grab your legs. Another survivor will then jump up to grab my leg. Then, another, and another. The Heaven Realm superhumans will then drag all the survivors up like a meat skewer and fly away,” Meng Chao said. “Do you think my plan is workable?”
“…No,” Lu Siya said coldly.
“That’s why I said that I think this method is too immature. I originally didn’t want to say it, but you forced me to.” Meng Chao sighed. “There’s no other way, we have to fight. Get me my Type 45 double-barreled heavy anti-aircraft machine gun and eight gun mounted RG-6!”
Lu Siya did not say a thing and handed him a pistol.
Meng Chao looked at Lu Siya.
“I have only three bullets. Use them wisely.”
“Damn it! I’m giving it my all!”
Meng Chao gritted his teeth and grabbed the pistol. With a shout, he jumped on the cliff formed by the monsters.
Bang, bang, bang!
He did not even look when he fired the three bullets. Then, he tossed the pistol to the side and brought out his tattered sabers. Spirit flames gushed out of the tips of his saber along with his spirit tattoos to form a saber glare that was more than two meters long and had a crystalline quality.
It did not matter how many chips there were on the blade. Even if it was broken in half, as long as it was a cold weapon, it would allow the user to taste the pleasure of fighting!
Spirit energy surged, and the chain sabers danced. Meng Chao drew a huge X in the middle of the monster horde, causing the “cliff” to instantly crumble.
Quite a number of monsters were dazzled by the fall. Before they could react, they were gobbled up by the rock dragon Lu Siya formed with reinforced concrete. Then, they were ripped to shreds.
“Fight!”
“Give it your all!”
“Go!”
With the two motivating them, all the survivors felt their bloodlust stirred up.
If they had finished the bullets in their machine guns, they switched to semi-automatic rifles.
If they finished the bullets in their semi-automatic rifles, they used their pistols.
And if they used up the bullets in their pistols, they switched to cold weapons.
When their sabers were broken or their swords shattered, they grabbed materials from the monsters’ carcasses or used their fists and feet to fight. They used their spirit energy to go up against the monster horde and swept the insects who jumped on the roof down once again.
Thud!
Meng Chao intersected his chain sabers and cut down the head of a Giant Centipede who was as thick as a python. Before the venom in its abdominal cavity could gush out, he brought his leg up and kicked the twitching carcass down the roof.
Using the chance, he sprawled down at the edge of the balcony and looked down.
Immediately, he felt his skin crawl and cussed under his breath.
The area under the roof was jam-packed with insect-type monsters.
Monstrous and ugly Giant Praying Mantises, Giant Spiders, Giant Centipedes, and their amalgamations covered the windows of the building.
As if they had come to realize that the humans wanted to flee, they gave up on searching for people in the hotel and killing them. Instead, they focused all their attention on climbing up and treated the outer walls that were perpendicular to the ground like flat land.
In an instant, twice the number of insects compared to earlier climbed up to the roof.
The survivors behind Meng Chao had already fought in multiple battles. They were now covered in wounds, tired, and out of ammunition.
When they looked at the black insect swarm, everyone gulped.
Even Meng Chao had despair in his eyes.
But this despair was soon replaced by a fighting will so great that he would not stop until he died.
If all the experts of Project 101 died, there was a high chance that Dragon City would walk down its previous path and head toward the apocalypse.
Then, he might as well fight to his heart’s content here!
He used the chains to tie the blood-soaked hilts of the sabers to his wrists and sucked in a deep breath. He was just about to swing his sabers when Lu Siya pushed down at his shoulder from behind him.
“That’s about enough. There’s a limit as to how much you should play hero. We’ve done our best. We can be free of this without a guilty conscience,” she whispered.
Meng Chao did not understand what she meant.
