Chapter 555 Licker
"There is no news coming back from the Guardian Fortress."
Uriah hesitated for a moment and said, "However, according to my speculation, I hope that the government will not capture the Guardian Fortress for the time being."
"Why?" Enzo raised his eyebrows.
"The reason is very simple." Uriah said softly: "The Lighthouse Floating City is on the verge of crashing. It is impossible for people in the Hope Government not to know that if they really regained the Guardian Fortress, I am afraid they would have already started to move the survivors, and they would not let them The situation became what it is now.”
Enzo's eyes flashed, and he also thought Uriah's inference was reasonable. After pondering for a moment, he asked again, "Is there any news coming from the underground city recently?"
"It's the same news as last time."
Uriah shook his head and said, "After the Starscream organization broke through the dungeon, the golden hunter Thomas led the survivors of the dungeon to find a temporary shelter, but in the process they encountered a wave of corpses. The result was almost Everyone was killed.”
"As a last resort, those who fled can only return to the underground city to be safe there. Otherwise, all the 100,000 survivors in the underground city may die."
Uriah spoke calmly.
A few months ago, the underground city was attacked by the Starscream organization. Lord Thomas had no choice but to escape with the residents of the underground city. However, they encountered more dangers than they imagined on the way, so they had no choice but to return to the underground city again. .
Fortunately, there were no zombies and Destroyers in the dungeon at that time. Enzo used the power of the chip to invade the Starscream satellite network, thus converting the zombies and Destroyers into his own power.
In place, Enzo's eyes flickered.
The situation in the Aquamarine World is becoming more and more complicated. The Hope Government established by the human survivors not only has to face radiation, zombies and mutant beasts, but now there is also a Starscream organization.
What's even more frightening is that this Starscream organization possesses technology that even the Hope Government has never possessed, and its threat level has even surpassed that of zombies and mutant beasts.
"Lighthouse Floating City."
"Guardian's Fortress."
Now there are two choices before Enzo, whether to go to the place where the Lighthouse Floating City fell, or to go to the Guardian Fortress. Both places can allow me to obtain some resources.
"What role did the Starscream organization play in the fall of the Lighthouse Floating City?" Enzo murmured to himself, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
The Lighthouse Floating City is on the verge of collapse. This is something that I hope the government has known for a long time. However, according to the calculations of government scientists, it can still last for some time.
And now, the Lighthouse Floating City is under attack. If he says that it has nothing to do with the Starscream Organization, Enzo will never believe it.
"But what is the reason for them to do this?" Enzo was confused and didn't understand why the Starscream organization, which has powerful technology, must be an enemy of the Hope government.
If I had known earlier, the Hope Government is an organization that carries the fire of human survivors, and no normal human being would want it to be destroyed.
"Humanity?"
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Enzo's mind and he couldn't help but grow it.
"Could it be that the founder of the Starscream organization is not human at all?"
It sounded like a crazy idea, but Enzo's eyes flickered. As a wizard civilization at the apex of the multiverse, it had conquered almost thousands of worlds, many of which had special rules.
Just like a cyber world, the rulers there are not humans, but technological beings similar to mechanical intelligence.
The end of Aquamarine World came suddenly, and until now, no one knows the specific reason, and even the Hope Government doesn't know much about it.
"If the leader of the Starscream organization is really some kind of mechanical life, then the powerful technology it possesses would make sense."
Enzo's eyes flickered and he said secretly, "I just don't know if the mechanical life of the Starscream organization comes from another world or was born from the original body of the Ocean Blue World."
Planes lacking elements usually become technological planes. However, when a world's technology reaches a certain level, it may lead to further changes in the rules, resulting in the birth of special life.
"Without evidence, all inferences are in vain." Then, Enzo shook his head and suppressed the inference in his heart.
“It’s better to choose Lighthouse Floating City!”
Finally, Enzo made up his mind and planned to go to the area where the Lighthouse Floating City fell to see if he could get some benefits.
A floating city falling to the earth often represents many opportunities. Even if the floating city is torn into pieces, those broken mechanical parts will still have a certain value.
If he was lucky, Enzo could even find enough mechanical parts from the crash area of the lighthouse floating city to use it as an opportunity to lift off the star island floating city in the center of the garbage dump.
"It's better to go and find out first, and then make a decision." Enzo murmured to himself. Even if he decided to go to the Lighthouse Floating City, he did not intend to take anyone with him. Instead, he went alone. The main purpose was to check the lighthouse first. What is the situation in the falling area of the floating city?
"What are your plans next?"
At this time, Uriah, who had been standing next to him, suddenly spoke.
"I will go alone to the area where the lighthouse floating city fell to check. If the conditions are suitable, I will bring some people to bring all the mechanical parts removed from the floating city back to the base." Enzo told his plan.
"You plan to use the crash of the Lighthouse Floating City as an opportunity to implement the Star Island Floating City's launch plan?" Uriah looked thoughtful.
"Yes, that's right!" Enzo did not deny it and nodded directly. Uriah already knew about the Star Island Floating City.
"……All right."
After Uriah was silent for a moment, an expression of hesitation appeared on his face. It is not an easy task to re-lift a floating city that has fallen to the earth. Even the Hope Government may not be able to do this kind of thing. .
"Is there anything else?" Enzo asked again.
Uriah hesitated for a moment, but finally seemed to make up his mind. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Actually, I have been wanting to ask you a question recently!"
"What's the matter?" Enzo raised his eyebrows.
"Are you...really Enzo?" Uriah gritted his teeth and expressed the doubt in his heart. After being bitten by a zombie, Enzo not only became a hunter, but also seemed to have changed his soul.
As a friend who grew up together, Uriah was very familiar with Enzo, but since he was infected by zombies, Enzo felt more and more strange to him, so much so that Uriah couldn't help but feel strange in his heart.
"Maybe...right?"
Upon hearing Uriah's question, Enzo sighed in his heart and finally gave an ambiguous answer.
"I see."
A look of confusion appeared on Uriah's face, and then she turned and left. Some things didn't need to be explained clearly.
…
The next day, early morning.
The wild sand swept across the earth like a blade. In the desolate wilderness, several mutant beasts were fighting fiercely, eating each other's flesh and blood.
In the sky, a fiery red mecha flew past.
Enzo was sitting in the cockpit of the Red Bee mecha. There was a screen in front of him, which showed a map. The red dot area represented the location where the lighthouse floating city fell to the earth, and the flashing light dot also represented that it was moving towards the target. of Enzo.
"The upgraded Red Bee mecha can already exert combat power at the level of a second-order life form, which is almost top-notch in this world!"
Enzo's eyes flickered and he thought in his mind.
Since returning from the dungeon, Enzo not only controlled a hundred thousand zombies and dozens of Destroyers, but also gathered a group of scientists and soldiers. With the help of those scientists, he immediately upgraded the Red Bee mecha.
Now the combat value of this mecha can reach the level of a second-level life form.
Ho ho ho...
The roar of zombies came from the ground, and Enzo shook his head. Zombies and mutant beasts can be seen almost everywhere in the doomsday wasteland.
However, at this moment.
Suddenly, a warning came from the chip. On the ground, a strange-looking zombie suddenly jumped up and pounced on the Red Bee mecha, which was a hundred meters above the ground.
"Huh?"
Enzo was a little different. He raised the barrel of the Red Bee mecha at will, aimed at the zombie and fired at it, directly beating it into a sieve.
But the zombie that landed on the ground was still not dead. Instead, it kept twisting and opening its mouth to spray out a stream of black liquid.
In the sky, the Red Bee mecha stopped.
"Energy shield!"
With a thought in Enzo's mind, the Red Bee mecha projected its energy, forming a circular shield that blocked the black liquid and made a gurgling sound.
"Mutated zombies?"
Enzo looked at the zombie on the ground, used the camera function of the mecha to take a picture of its form, and it appeared on the display screen.
"A form I've never seen before!"
The zombies that appear in the picture have spider-like twisted limbs, scale-like substances on their festered skin, and a long tongue that is covered with sharp barbs.
Hiss!
At the same time, the ground trembled, and a cave like a crypt appeared, and zombies with hideous shapes emerged one after another.
Boom!
There was a fierce roar in the distance, as if a mecha was fighting. Enzo narrowed his eyes slightly and decided to go over and take a look.
But at this time, the zombies on the ground rushed towards the Red Bee mecha at the same time.
The black liquid sprayed from the mouths of those weird zombies fell like rain. Enzo turned on his whole body as if mode, and a light screen protective cover was formed around the Red Bee mecha.
Bah!
The black liquid fell on the light curtain protective cover, making a fierce sound. At the same time, energy was also consumed rapidly.
"Acid of this level can even melt steel, right?" Enzo frowned slightly. The zombies appearing on the ground seemed to have extremely strong corrosive abilities, and ordinary hunters may not be able to deal with them.
Da da da!
Enzo immediately stopped hesitating and activated the energy bomb strafing mode, unleashing a round of fire suppression on the zombies on the ground. However, these zombies were extremely cunning and hid in the crypt before being attacked.
"Forget it, ignore them for now."
Enzo shook his head and stopped entangled with these zombies. He controlled the Red Bee mecha and flew towards the previous roar.
…
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Thousands of zombies with long tongues are frantically besieging an area, and several mechas with uniform shapes are resisting.
Boom!
As a cannonball blasted out, the ground was suddenly filled with thick smoke, and several zombies with long tongues quickly got into the cave.
"Damn! These lickers are so tough!"
Among the several hunters who were controlling mechas, a middle-aged man with a rough face was sitting in the cockpit with an extremely ugly face, and he was constantly controlling the war mechas to bombard the surroundings.
"Boss Hank, my energy is running out!"
At this time, a woman's anxious voice came from a war mecha nearby. The mecha she controlled was constantly emitting warning sounds, which meant that the energy was about to be exhausted.
"let me help you!"
Upon seeing this, another hunter who controlled the war mecha quickly wanted to come over to help, but he ignored the impact that his departure from the place would have on the defense formations of several people.
"Damn it, go back quickly!"
Hank's expression changed and he shouted loudly, but it was already too late. As soon as the mecha warrior left the place, the Licker zombies emerged from the burrow one after another, like a pack of evil wolves. Pounce on the war mech.
Stab!
For a time, dozens of licker zombies were lying on top of the war mecha. The black liquid they spat out was highly corrosive and immediately corroded the mecha's shell with large traces.
"No!!!"
The mecha warrior hiding in the cockpit let out a desperate cry, but was unable to stop the Lickers' attack and was dragged out of the mecha.
"Damn it!" Hank cursed.
The other mecha warriors around them woke up one after another, not daring to be careless at all, and controlled the mechas to delay time.
"Everyone, hold on, support is coming soon!"
To boost morale, Hank shouted, "The government will never give up on us. Fire support will arrive in three hours at most!"
After hearing Hank's words, the mecha warriors felt a glimmer of hope. They had been trapped here for several hours. After realizing the horror of the Licker zombies, they had already sent a request for help to their floating island.
However, there was no response for a long time.
Hank was extremely anxious, but in order to maintain morale, he had no choice but to lie. He also thought about breaking out, but he never succeeded.
"Boss! Help me!"
At this time, another mecha was surrounded by licker zombies. The driver was the woman from before. Her mecha's energy had been exhausted, so she no longer had the ability to support the protective shield.
Hank was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do.
The defensive formation formed by the mecha warriors is the only chance to resist the lickers. If the mecha warriors act rashly like the previous mecha warriors, they will only end up harming others and themselves, and will be killed by the lickers in vain.
Boom!
Just when the female mecha warrior was about to be surrounded and killed by the lickers, a fiery red figure suddenly passed by in the sky, and a cannonball was directly thrown down, blowing up the lickers.
