The "wall" formed by the monsters squirmed nonstop and turned into a "cliff".
And this cliff that symbolized death was about to collapse on the hundreds of survivors in the next second.
Lu Siya's heart burned with anxiety. She whispered to Meng Chao, "Hey, aren't you really good at creating miracles? Do you have a way to escape?"
"Yeah, I do have a rather immature idea."
Meng Chao thought about it for a while before he shook his head. "Forget it. It's impossible."
"We're already in a situation like this. Why are you still being so wishy-washy?
Hurry up and tell me! "Lu Siya said anxiously." No matter what it is, we have to try everything we can. “
"Alright, I'll tell you."
Meng Chao thought about it. "Big Sis Ya, you're a Heaven Realm superhuman, and I can see that there are a few Heaven Realm superhumans here. Even though most of them use spirit energy to strengthen their brains and do academic research, they don't have great fighting strength. At the very least, they control maglev and can break free of gravity to slowly levitate in the air.
"Then, can we do this? First, activate your abilities and levitate."
Halfway through his sentence, he found himself hesitating.
"Then?" Lu Siya was about to die of anxiety.
"Then, I'll jump up and hug your thigh. The other survivors will jump up and hug my thigh. Just like that, one by one, the Heaven Realm superhumans will drag all the survivors into the air like skewered candied haws and fly away," Meng Chao said.
"Do you think that this idea of mine is feasible?" Meng Chao asked.
"… No," Lu Siya said coldly.
"That's why I also think that this idea isn't mature. I didn't want to say it, but you forced me to."
Meng Chao sighed. "Then, I have no other choice. I can only fight. Hurry up and bring me my Type 45 Dual Heavy Anti-aircraft Machine Gun and Eight Barrel Rotating Rifle Grenade Launcher!"
Lu Siya did not say a word. She just handed him a pistol.
Meng Chao looked at Lu Siya.
"You still have three bullets left. Use them sparingly," Lu Siya said.
"… Damn it, I'll fight!"
Meng Chao gritted his teeth and took the pistol. With a shout, he jumped in front of the "cliff" formed by the monsters.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The three bullets shot out without even looking. Then, he tossed the small handgun over and pulled out the scarred saber from his waist. Battle flames gushed out from the tip of the saber along with the spirit runes, forming a crystal clear saber light that was over two meters long.
No matter how many cracks there were, even if it was broken in half.
Cold weapons were the best weapons to taste the joy of killing!
His spirit energy surged, and his chain sabers danced madly. Meng Chao drew a huge X at the center of the monsters, and the "cliff" instantly crumbled.
Quite a number of monsters were dizzy from the fall. Before they could register what was going on, they were swallowed by the stone dragon formed by reinforced concrete and torn to shreds.
"Let's fight!"
"Let's fight!"
"Fight! “
Under the encouragement of these two people, the bravery of all the survivors was stimulated.
When the machine gun ran out of bullets, use the semiautomatic rifle.
When the rifle is empty, use the pistol.
When the handgun is empty, use the cold weapon.
When the saber is broken and the greatsword is shattered, use the materials from the monster carcasses. He even punched and kicked them. He used the spirit energy tsunami to fight against the monster horde and swept all the insects that jumped on the roof back down.
Thud!
Meng Chao intersected his chain sabers and cut off the head of a Giant Centipede that was as thick as a python. Before the poison in its body could gush out, he swung his leg and kicked the twitching carcass off the roof.
He seized the chance to crawl to the edge of the roof and look down.
His skin crawled, and he blurted out, "Damn it."
There were insect-type monsters at the bottom of the roof.
There were monstrous and ugly Giant Praying Mantises, Spiders, Centipedes, and their amalgamations. They blocked all the windows on the outside of the building.
They seemed to have realized that the humans were about to escape.
They gave up on searching and killing the inside of the hotel. Instead, they used all their strength to climb up the building. They walked on the walls that were perpendicular to the ground as if they were walking on flat ground.
Not long after, twice the number of Zergs climbed up to the rooftop again.
Behind Meng Chao were the survivors who had gone through multiple bloody battles. They were already covered in wounds, exhausted, and out of food.
Looking at the black swarm of insects, everyone gulped with difficulty.
Even Meng Chao had a hint of despair in his eyes.
But that despair was soon replaced by a fighting spirit that would not stop until one of them died.
If the specialists from Project 101 were completely wiped out …
There was a high chance that Dragon City would walk down the same path and head to the apocalypse.
Then, it would be better for them to fight to their heart's content here!
He used a chain to tie the blood-soaked saber to his arm. Meng Chao sucked in a deep breath and was about to swing his saber again.
But Lu Siya pressed down on his shoulder from behind.
"It's about time. Even if you want to be a hero, there should be a limit to it. We've already done our best, and our conscience is clear now," she said softly.
Meng Chao did not understand what she meant.
"Your suggestion just now isn't practical, because my maglev abilities are limited. It's impossible for me to drag so many people," Lu Siya explained.
"But if you're alone, I might be able to escape with you in the air. “
Meng Chao was a little stunned, but he rejected it resolutely. "No, I can't abandon so many survivors who fought with me and run away in front of monsters!"
"But if we stay here, aside from dying with them, there's no meaning to it!"
Lu Siya growled. "Saving people is one thing, but dying with them is another. Don't you understand the logic of 'where there's life, there's hope'?" “
"I … Of course I understand."
Meng Chao had to admit that Lu Siya was right.
But for some reason, the pale face of his peer appeared in his mind again, as well as his eyes that were wide open.
It was only at that moment that he noticed that when his peer died, there was a faint smile on his lips.
Why was he smiling?
Was it because he was relieved that he did not lose to the fear in his heart and that he could die while standing while facing monsters like a real Dragon Citizen?
"Big Sis Ya, you're right."
Meng Chao sighed. "You're already a loyal friend since you fought with me until here. There's indeed no need for you to die with someone else. Then, hurry up and leave. I'll cover you from behind!"
"You …"
Lu Siya said angrily. "You're an idiot!"
"Perhaps," Meng Chao mumbled.
"Or perhaps I'm just too naive. I just want to fight until the last second and see … whether there'll be a change in the situation. “
Lu Siya cursed. She no longer bothered with Meng Chao and took three steps back. She was prepared to activate her vitality magnetic field and activate maglev to escape from the air.
The other Heaven Realm superhuman who was covered in blood was one step faster than her. He flew up while swaying.
But against her expectations, he had only flown five meters into the air.
Dozens of acid and venom shot at him from the monsters around him.
This Heaven Realm superhuman was also a member of Project 101. More than 90% of the spirit energy he accumulated during his cultivation went to his brain. He was a typical example of someone with a well-developed brain but simple limbs. In terms of fighting strength, he was at most the same level as an Earth Realm martial artist.
The continuous fights just now had not only drained his spirit energy, he had also lost more than one milliliter of blood through his wounds. His face was terrifyingly pale, and his flying speed was not much faster than a snail's. He was also not skilled in aerial maneuvering and dodging.
He was flustered in the air.
In an instant, he was hit by a few rays of acid and venom.
As he screamed in pain, he fell back to the roof.
Not only did he not manage to escape, the wounds on his body opened up, and more blood gushed out.
"…"
Lu Siya's eyelids twitched. She did not say a word and returned to Meng Chao's side.
"Um, sorry, Big Sis Ya. I think I dragged you into this," Meng Chao said while scratching his head.
"Enough with the nonsense!"
Lu Siya gritted her teeth and shoved Meng Chao's back. "Since you can't escape, there's only one option left. Create a new miracle, just like what you did under Raging Waves! “
Meng Chao roared and raised his saber. Two saber glares intersected with each other like lightning. Not only did they cut a Scythe Head in front of him in half, they also cut the shell of a Three-eyed Wolf Spider behind it, and its juices flew everywhere.
At this time, accompanied by a teeth-numbing metal friction sound, a giant golden scorpion suddenly rushed out from below the rooftop.
Its body was more than three meters long, and its spiky tail was around five meters long. Its body shone with a metallic light, which showed that its shell had incredible defense. At the front of its limbs was a pair of huge and sharp pincers that did not seem like those of a scorpion but of a crab. They had the power to cut an armored vehicle in half.
In fact, even other insect-type monsters had to avoid it.
The monsters who dared to get close to it were flung off the roof by its scorpion tail.
"Abyss Scorpion? “
Meng Chao sucked in a sharp breath, and a terrifying name rose in his mind.
Abyss Scorpions were one of the few insect-type monsters that could reach the level of Hell Beasts the moment they became adults.
Their shells absorbed a lot of rare metals and high-grade crystals, and they were comparable to the sturdiest alloy armor created by humans.
And their pincers did not just have great bite strength. They could also use the spasms of their tendons to create high-frequency vibrations, which further increased their ability to tear apart their prey.
Meng Chao had seen armored vehicles torn to shreds by Abyss Scorpions before.
He had used a full half a minute to recognize that it was an armored vehicle.
If he had been at the peak of his condition, Meng Chao might have been able to avoid the Abyss Scorpion's indestructible shell and use his saber to find the cracks between the shells.
But now …
Meng Chao cast a glance at his trembling hands.
They had been fighting for a long time, and he had long since surpassed his limits. Forget about the muscles in his fingers and arms, he even had a hard time controlling his sphincter.
The Abyss Scorpion also sensed his and Lu Siya's fatigue.
Its saw-like pincers started vibrating at high speed, and they let out savage cackles.
Its scorpion tail was raised high, and its poisonous stinger shone with a red light.
Meng Chao and Lu Siya looked at each other and took a step forward at the same time.
Meng Chao raised the cracked saber, which would shatter if it received another slash.
Lu Siya also controlled the shattered and shrinking stone dragon to raise its proud head.
Just when the saber and stone dragon were about to crash into the Abyss Scorpion's pincers …
A ray of light that looked like a bolt of lightning descended from the sky and pierced the Abyss Scorpion's body, pinning it to the roof.
When the two of them saw clearly that the Abyss Scorpion was pinned to the ground by a long red spear, a sound that surpassed the speed of sound traveled into their ears like rolling thunder.
Meng Chao and Lu Siya looked up and saw the dark clouds being torn apart. The dust scattered, and a burning griffin charged down from the dark sky!
