The wind and snow gradually intensified.

The SUV had raised its windproof cloak, isolating the world inside from the wind and snow outside. Callio closed his eyes and dozed in the car while the other instructors s.h.i.+elded themselves from the wind and snow with transport vehicles. In the empty s.p.a.ce behind the car, food was cooked using a fixed fuel and a military stove. The food was a mutated rat that had been caught nearby. This mutant rat was the size of a puppy, but unlike its close relative, the Violent Rat, it had a relatively mild temperament.

The hamsters were killed by the teachers, who skinned them. This layer of fur was able to protect itself from the radiation, and it contained a large amount of radiation, so it was naturally inedible. Even if it was the fat layer under the giant rat's skin, it was still an extremely poisonous substance that could not be eaten. However, after taking out these two poisonous substances, the remaining meat was an extremely rare delicacy.

The instructors separated the huge rat from its carca.s.s, tore strips of meat from it with sabers, and then roasted it in a hot barbecue furnace. Even in the essence, there was a small amount of fat. When the fat is heated, it melts and becomes a natural animal fat oil, making it easier for the meat strips to be cooked and cooked.

By the time the skeleton of the giant rat had been pulled up and set aside, the meat strips were almost done roasting in the oven. Although there was no seasoning, the aroma of the roasted meat still wafted in the wind and wafted into the nose of the SUV.

Callio opened his eyes, a smile flas.h.i.+ng across his old face. He cursed in a low voice, "d.a.m.n brats, why aren't you greeting me when there's something good there?"

It was rare for the Chief Military Instructor who hadn't smoked a cigar to curse and groan as he got out of the SUV. But just as he opened the door, the Tactics Board computer buzzed with a message.

Callio glanced strangely at the tactical board, and outside, the teachers had already begun to gobble up the golden, roasted meat. Smelling the aroma of the roast meat, he spat out a mouthful of saliva before reluctantly returning to his car.

He opened the email.

The mail was an order from Supreme Headquarters in Asgard, and it represented the high command of the Hall of Heroic Spirits. According to the order, there would be three middle-ranked experts partic.i.p.ating in the a.s.sessment, and they would also be able to create a small surprise for the recruits. Looking at the words "Improving the reaction of the recruits" written in the mail, the head instructor shook his head and muttered, "Those old masters at the headquarters were really full of food. They even had to ask about the a.s.sessment of a small recruit."

Closing the email, he jumped out of the car. He stared blankly and saw that there was not much roasted meat left in the military furnace. The chief instructor immediately shouted, "Kids, save some for me!"

The wind and snow obscured his voice. At the same time, it also covered up some other things.

Military base, underground level 1.

"Olam, Betsy." At three o'clock, a group of living corpses approached. Their numbers were around thirty. Stop them, and don't let these d.a.m.n b.a.s.t.a.r.ds cross your line of blockade! "" No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...

"Luca, Gail." You must move quickly. There are more living corpses heading this way. d.a.m.n it, how did they discover us?! "

In the darkness of the pa.s.sageway, the sounds of fire and machine guns constantly flashed. In the loud, ear-splitting sound, the hot current of metal cut through all the approaching living corpses and ensured that they could not cross the line of fire formed by the two machine guns.

Living corpses swarmed in from who knows where, and after tearing up Bridger, they started chasing after the other members of the vanguard team. Living corpses were always hungry. As long as there were living beings in front of their eyes, they would not waste any energy to kill them all. Unless all the living corpses were dead, they would not stop their footsteps. Under their instincts, even if the other party was just a ball of fire, they were still willing to be a moth in a fire!

They had to retreat from the corpses. The vanguard team had killed at least a hundred of these monsters, but even more zombies were pouring in from the depths of the base. These living corpses all wore the uniform of the base. When they were alive, they should have been the base's staff. Only the heavens knew how many people were gathered in this base at that time. Just by thinking about it, one could already tell that there were a lot of people serving the base.

Even if only half of these people had been transformed into living corpses, the number would still be in the thousands!

Under these circ.u.mstances, the vanguard team could only retreat. With Anthony scanning and Soul Linking Chains, the vanguard team had not encountered any obstacles until five minutes ago.

The area scan allowed Anthony to scan within five hundred meters of the area with his mind and spirit, allowing him to grasp the advantage of the terrain, the number of enemies, and their movements. Then connect the other members through the Soul Chains, so as to achieve the accurate communication without obstacles.

Anthony, following the directions of the electronic map, was organizing the entire team to retreat towards the B1 pa.s.sage that led to the second level. However, when the pa.s.sageway was already in sight, a butcher unexpectedly appeared in the pa.s.sageway. The butcher was a tank-shaped monster, and in his hand he held a special weapon made of welded pipes and irregular sheets of steel. The movement of this mace like object brought along a fierce wind. It could easily smash a living person into mud.

Now Luca and Gale, two melee fighters, were fighting the butcher. On the other side, more and more living corpses were coming at them. The limited firepower of Olam and Betsy was almost unable to suppress them.

Hearing Anthony's urging, Lucca shouted, "Gail, cover me!"

The two had been working together for a long time, so they had a tacit understanding.

The weapon Gale uses is a single warhammer, which is small in size and light in weight. The whole body is made of alloy, with a flat hammer surface to produce more force surface. The top of the hammer was shaped like a pointed vertebra. The sharpness of the hammer could pierce through a steel plate. The body of the warhammer has a crystal slot. When necessary, the high-energy battery inside the warhammer can be activated through the switch at the handle to release millions of volts of high-voltage electricity through the crystal slot, inflicting heavy damage to the enemy.

Gail lunged at the butcher. At the same time, he pressed down on the activation device for the high-energy battery. Immediately, a strand of dark-blue electric flower jumped out of the crystal tank at the handshake and instantly flew around the warhammer through the crystal tank. The isolation around the handshake prevented Gail from getting electrocuted. He gripped the hammer, which was jumping with electric sparks, and slammed it down on the butcher's left knee.

The butcher had great strength, but his intelligence was limited and he did not know how to evade. In fact, this kind of monster that prided itself on its strange strength and tenacious vitality always used the method of mutual destruction. Seeing Gale's hammer approach, the butcher did not dodge. Instead, he raised his special mace and smashed it down onto Gale's head.

The instant the two of them exchanged blows, Lucca also rushed over. He held a one-handed sword in his hand, which looked badly damaged. The blade of the sword was covered with tiny cracks, and the surface of the blade had even become jagged. However, such an unremarkable sword exuded an astonis.h.i.+ng killing intent. This was an aura that would only appear when a weapon was exposed to an unknown number of ma.s.sacres.

Gail slammed the hammer into the butcher's knee, and the million volts of high-voltage electricity filled the butcher's body. Even with the butcher's strength, he couldn't withstand the baptism of this kind of electric current. Suddenly, his body's function became sluggish by 10%, and his body's coordination ability also decreased by 30%. At once, the instructions in his mind were like a computer's delay. It would take a few seconds for the instructions to reach the required parts.

The blows from the warhammers caused the butcher's knees to shatter. The butcher's body tilted to the right, and the delayed reaction of his body caused the staff that had been aimed at Gale to graze past him.

But even so, Gail, who had been rubbed on her right shoulder, suddenly felt a numbing sensation in her arm. However, he was still able to roll on the spot and arrived behind the butcher.

At this moment, Lucca arrived.

A cold light flashed across the blade warrior's eyes, and the broken sword in one hand instantly slashed across the butcher's neck. A red line appeared on the butcher's neck. Then, with the red line as the center, the skin and flesh rolled to both sides. Finally, the head fell off. Naturally, the headless butcher couldn't survive. His large body tilted to the side and he fell straight into the corner.

"Hurry up!"

After finis.h.i.+ng off the butcher, Lucca roared loudly. At the same time, he picked up Gale, whose body was half numb, with one hand and ran towards the entrance of the B1 pa.s.sage first. Anthony immediately informed the two of them to retreat, and just like that, they all retreated into the pa.s.sage entrance. Olam undid the safety catch of a high-powered grenade and threw it at the zombies behind him.

Seeing the grenade being thrown into the group of corpses, Olam shouted, "Get down!"

Without waiting for him to remind them, the others saw the grenade being thrown and had already realized what was happening. In the next second, a flame exploded among the corpses. Amidst the deafening explosion, the orange fireball expanded rapidly, followed by a thousand degrees of high-temperature heat energy that swept in all directions. Suddenly, within a radius of a hundred meters from the center of the explosion, the living corpses were vaporized while those within two hundred meters were turned to dust. Only the living corpses within the four hundred meter radius of the explosion could still maintain their human form, but the brains inside the skulls were shaken into a mess. It was no different from beheading them.

A high-energy grenade, the light and heat it emitted instantly killed nearly a hundred living corpses. However, behind these corpses, there were still a large number of living corpses.

Anthony continued to cast out his abilities from his two Sensory Domains, and his head felt like it was about to burst. More living corpses were now being seen, and the alloy doors at the entrance could not be closed because of the loss of power. This exposed the vanguard team to the living corpses. Anthony gritted his teeth and ordered them to retreat.

However, what surprised them was that the rest of the living corpses had reached the entrance and were hovering at the edge, not daring to take even half a step outside of the lightning lake. This scene was like a wild beast in the forest not daring to recklessly enter the territory of a forest king like the Lion Tiger. However, no one knew whose territory the second underground floor was. This caused these monsters with limited intelligence to not dare to take a step forward!
