Chapter 111 Port City (4)
The older child picked and chose in front of the refrigerator, and soon filled both backpacks again. He was indeed much more alert than the younger one, taking only filling foods that didn't require much cooking.
Just as the ice on Lu Yuan's body was about to spread to his shoulders and waist, the cabin door, which had been secretly frozen shut by the child, was kicked open, and Qin Yuan rushed in, shouting, "Lu Yuan, what are you doing? Why hasn't the ship started moving yet!"
"Holy crap! What's going on?" Yang Xiao, who rushed in afterward, was also surprised to see Ji Lang standing still and Lu Yuan, who was almost frozen solid, and then he noticed the two children in front of the refrigerator.
Before boarding the yacht, Gu Nanfeng noticed two energy clusters, one red and one white, on board, indicating that something had happened on the ship. However, the energy clusters of superhumans were different from those of zombies, so Gu Nanfeng wasn't too worried. After all, they had all returned, and these two small energy clusters couldn't cause any trouble.
Pei Sihao followed Gu Nanfeng into the yacht's cockpit. They quickly started the yacht because the weather outside was too cold, and the yacht could not be driven away as usual; it needed a warm-up period.
But the enormous mass of energy on the dock was getting closer and closer, and just when everyone on the ship was extremely anxious, a figure appeared on the dock.
The shadow stood motionless in the cold wind, silently watching the yacht on the shore. Inside the cabin, the two children, having evolved superpowers, could sense danger from the outside. Neither of them dared to speak. Faced with the danger outside and the many superpowered individuals on the ship, they quietly deactivated their powers. The ice layer on Lu Yuan's body slowly melted away, and Ji Lang could no longer feel the aura surrounding him.
The only two people on the ship without superpowers finally breathed a sigh of relief and came back to life.
However, before the two could fully relax, Qin Yuan and Lin Yun had already pushed them and the two children to the very back of the cabin.
Lu Yuan and Ji Lang had no idea how dangerous the zombie outside was, but everyone on the ship looked tense. They looked at each other, and Lu Yuan took out two submachine guns from his spatial storage. He handed one to Ji Lang and kept the other for himself, since they couldn't just stand there like that.
The roar of the yacht's engine continued, the motor already warmed up, but Gu Nanfeng and Pei Sihao in the cockpit dared not move. No matter how fast the yacht went, the "Zombie King" was standing on the opposite shore; if they moved, he could leap onto the yacht in an instant.
Having no other choice, Gu Nanfeng and Pei Sihao returned to their cabin for the time being. Gu Nanfeng looked out the window at the shore. Compared to all the zombies they had encountered before, including the very clean-looking one in a suit, this zombie looked more like a "human." He was wearing a simple blue and white tracksuit with black sneakers. The entire outfit was brand new, and his sparse hair was neatly styled. His skin wasn't as bluish-purple as other zombies; it was just paler than normal. However, like the other zombies, his eyes had no eyeballs, only the whites of his eyes.
Lu Yuan and Ji Lang were at the very back of the cabin. Even if their eyesight was excellent, they couldn't see anything. After peeking out twice, Lu Yuan gave up completely.
“His energy cluster is huge, bigger than Du’s before, and it’s purplish-black.” Gu Nanfeng told the others in the cabin about the energy cluster he had sensed, and then added, “All of us combined are no match for him.”
"What do we do then?" Zhong Qiang scratched his head in frustration. He was a support-type ability user, and before coming out, he hadn't even fully figured out what his ability actually did. Now, they had only just defeated a small boss, and they were already facing such a big boss on their second encounter. This was like jumping a level too fast!
"Team Leader Liu said before that Zhong Qiang and I have auxiliary abilities, and I should enhance attack power. Is that not working?" Yang Xiao looked at Gu Nanfeng. Although he and Lin Yun had tried it a few times at the base, the effect of his so-called attack power enhancement was not very obvious.
"I don't know either. Who would have thought we'd run into such a lucky guy, encountering such a powerful 'zombie king' right away?" Gu Nanfeng and the others hadn't had a chance to test their so-called auxiliary abilities with Zhong Qiang and Yang Xiao yet, so he couldn't be sure right now.
Fortunately, they didn't move, and the "Zombie King" outside showed no signs of moving either. It remained quietly standing on the shore, gazing at their yacht in the wind and snow.
"How about we run out the back door?" Lu Yuan asked timidly from behind. "Let's put another yacht out the back door, run faster, and take that yacht. I'll try to put this yacht back into my space as quickly as possible?"
“Each of us could fly quite a distance with a single leap, let alone the ‘Zombie King,’ who is far more powerful than us.” Wei Cheng rejected Lu Yuan’s plan, as it was impractical. Even if Lu Yuan placed another yacht behind them, it would still be within the ‘Zombie King’s’ range of movement.
"Should we give him that crystal?" Qin Yuan scratched his head. He thought for a long time and concluded that this "Zombie King" was probably after the little "Zombie King" crystal from before.
"It's no use. Zombies have crystals inside them, and superhumans definitely have them too. We are its prey." Lin Yun poured cold water on Qin Yuan. It seemed that they really had no choice but to fight. He looked at Gu Nanfeng and Pei Sihao, thought for a while, and calmly said, "Qin Yuan and I will go out and hold him off. You guys run."
"No way!" Pei Sihao and Gu Nanfeng said in unison.
“That’s right, Captain Lin, you can’t always think about sacrificing yourselves to protect us when we’re in danger. We’re a team now, and we have to face anything together.” As he spoke, Lu Yuan started flipping through his spatial panel again. “There is, there’s definitely a way.”
"Don't be nervous, Xiao Yuan. See if you have any powerful heavy weapons in your space." Pei Sihao saw that Lu Yuan was nervous and guessed that he was searching through his space. However, Lu Yuan had no military experience and was at a loss as to which weapon to choose in this situation. So Pei Sihao offered to guide him.
"Find the micro missiles!" Qin Yuan and Lin Yun said at the same time. Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan immediately searched for micro missiles in his space, and soon two sets of micro missiles appeared on the ground in front of him.
Ji Lang, standing next to Lu Yuan, was utterly shocked by the sight of the two sets of miniature missiles before him, while the two children behind him were practically bursting with disbelief.
Qin Yuan and Lin Yun smiled with satisfaction upon seeing the equipment. They each took a set and, along with Yang Xiao and Zhong Qiang, quietly climbed onto the second floor of the yacht. They each found a spot, set up their launchers, and aimed at the "Zombie King" on the shore.
