Suddenly, several Giant Zombies appeared around Lin Yi. At this moment, if Lin Yi chose to jump out of the Water Surface, the Submarine would be in danger due to the strength of the Giant Zombies. However, if he continued to fight, Lin Yi was already on the brink of collapse!
Without a moment's hesitation, Lin Yi kicked off from an ordinary Zombie and propelled himself toward the Giant Zombies! The next moment, it seemed as if the Giant Zombies sensed his approach, and several of them closed in on him!
Lin Yi furrowed his brow, not daring to hesitate for even a second. With his mental energy restored to seventy percent, he wielded one Silver Soul and struck at a Zombie directly in front of him while using another Silver Soul to fend off the Zombies attempting to ambush him from both sides.
The river was already filled with severed limbs and the foul, dark liquid that bubbled up. Lin Yi had no choice but to close his eyes and rely on his mental energy to observe his surroundings; however, this also allowed him to move much faster.
The two Zombies flanking him had barely approached when Lin Yi swiftly dispatched them with lightning speed! This was still due to the resistance of the water; if he were on land, with Lin Yi's reaction speed, these Zombies would have been effortlessly slain in an instant!
One Zombie ahead was pierced through the skull by "Hidden Danger," and Lin Yi's movements were affected, but those Zombies were not faring any better!
At that moment, a Zombie behind him had closed in. It wielded a pitch-black iron rod that was about to stab into Lin Yi's back! However, in Lin Yi's mental perception world, everything around him was within his sight! Just as the sharp iron rod was about to pierce his back, Lin Yi concentrated his body's strength at that point!
With a "whoosh," he felt a powerful force strike his back, sending him deeper into the water!
Lin Yi's head buzzed; it was due to oxygen deprivation! At this point, he had fallen into deeper waters, and the surrounding Zombies seemed to have planned this all along. Just as Lin Yi sank deeper into the water, those Zombies charged at him without fear of death!
At this moment, Lin Yi felt dizzy; if he held his breath any longer, he might drown! The next instant, gritting his teeth, he released both Silver Souls and positioned them at his sides. The left Silver Soul tilted thirty degrees to the right while the right Silver Soul tilted thirty degrees to the left!
Suddenly, under Lin Yi's frantic mental control, both Silver Souls began to spin rapidly. The approaching Zombies were pushed aside by this swirling force, allowing Lin Yi to use the generated thrust to shoot toward the Water Surface at terrifying speed.
Since the Zombies had already formulated their strategy, they would not easily let Lin Yi escape. Although ordinary Zombies could not approach him, the strength of the Giant Zombies was formidable; they repeatedly disrupted his rapidly spinning Silver Souls! Before Lin Yi could reach his maximum speed, he was interfered with. He had already been underwater for several minutes now and had been exerting himself vigorously during that time, reaching a critical limit of oxygen consumption!
Lin Yi's consciousness began to blur; his only belief was to reach the Water Surface for a breath of air! At this moment, he was merely a meter away from it and could vaguely see what was happening above. Yet these Zombies clung to him like a persistent curse that he could not shake off!
Driven by an intense desire for survival, Lin Yi expended nearly all his mental energy to wield the Silver Soul against the invading enemies.
With a final burst of speed, he crossed the last meter, the river's surface filled with a foul, burnt odor. Yet to Lin Yi, it was more intoxicating than the most exquisite perfume.
Breathing in greedily, Lin Yi swam towards the Submarine.
Suddenly, a rush of air and a low humming sound filled the sky above the river. Instinctively, Lin Yi looked up and saw a massive flying machine hovering above. Though it wasn't a helicopter, it suspended in the air like one.
"Great! They've finally arrived!"
"What is that?"
"We're saved!" As Lin Yi climbed onto the Submarine, cheers erupted from everyone else, clearly having spotted the aircraft as well.
The happiest among them was Ying Sa. She had been holding back her energy without contributing much until now. With their escape imminent, her efforts would surely be recognized!
The roars from the shore grew louder, quickly drowning out the noise of the aircraft. The zombies had exerted tremendous effort to eliminate those inside the Submarine, but now they were forced to watch as their prey attempted to escape, igniting their fury!
The zombies launched an all-out assault without regard for their own safety. Those who had been hesitating suddenly jumped into the water with loud splashes. Their determination suggested they would fill the river to ensure Lin Yi and his companions could not escape!
"Watch out for the zombies!" Lin Yi shouted as he tried to control Silver Soul for a counterattack. However, he soon realized his psychic power was nearly depleted, making it almost impossible to maneuver Silver Soul effectively.
With no other choice, Lin Yi resorted to using his Laser Gun. Although its power was immense, it couldn't match the speed at which he could slay with his blade!
"Tap, tap, tap!" Just as Lin Yi was troubled about how to deal with the crazed Zombies rushing towards him, a series of cannon fire suddenly erupted above his head!
Lin Yi looked up and discovered that the flying vehicle hovering above had six rotating turrets installed on its wings and nose, which were now firing wildly at the Zombies! Against Zombies, this type of machine gun invented in the early twentieth century was the most effective and deadly!
"Brother Lin Yi! The rope from the flying vehicle has come down; you should go up first," Ying Sa's urgent voice suddenly rang in his ears.
Lin Yi turned to glance back and saw a thick rope suspended about a meter above the Submarine!
"Taishan, you take Witerson II up first!" Lin Yi said without hesitation; he was not someone who only cared about his own escape.
Ying Sa was momentarily stunned but quickly moved on. Taishan jumped into the cabin and soon carried Witerson II out. To prevent Witerson II from falling during the ascent, he found another rope to tie them together.
The rope had a power device that automatically wound it up, so Taishan only needed to hold on tightly! However, Lin Yi silently calculated the time; it would take about twenty minutes for these ten or so people to retreat, which was extremely dangerous for them. With so many Zombies surrounding them, a slight misstep could lead to total annihilation! Moreover, Lin Yi was most worried about an attack from the Giant Zombie, whose threat was the most lethal!
Before Lin Yi could continue his thoughts, a series of piercing whistling sounds suddenly came from above. Everyone looked up to see that the massive flying vehicle's belly was launching tactical missiles!
In just a moment, two launch ports had already fired off twenty missiles in quick succession! The power of these missiles was certainly formidable, bringing joy to everyone!
Within seconds, those missiles exploded amidst the crowd of Zombies! The tremendous roar accompanied by the shockwave sent waves crashing across the Water Surface, causing the Submarine to shake violently under the impact.
Lin Yi glanced at Ying Sa beside him. Although he knew she came from an extraordinary background, he never expected her family's influence to be so powerful. Such powerful missiles were generally impossible for private ownership! However, in chaotic times like these, it wasn't surprising; even his Mercenary group had begun using Laser Guns that had not yet been widely deployed!
As twenty shells detonated and scattered, the area around the riverbank instantly transformed into a vacuum zone, clearing out nearly all nearby Zombies. For a short while, no more Zombies would approach.
However, with the number of zombies barely reaching one hundred thousand, it seemed they hadn't even killed ten thousand yet. Lin Yi and the others dared not let their guard down! They quickly began to retreat, prioritizing the girls like Aoling Er. Originally, Lin Yi had planned for Ying Sa to be the second to retreat, but she was unwilling, leaving Lin Yi with no choice.
The people on the aircraft coordinated well with those below. In just over ten minutes, only Lin Yi and Ying Sa remained on the ground. This time, Ying Sa could no longer resist Lin Yi's insistence and began to grab the rope to ascend.
Suddenly, a dark shadow whizzed through the darkness. Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat as he recognized it as an iron rod, aimed directly at Ying Sa, who was already halfway up in the air! However, due to the rod's incredible speed, Ying Sa had yet to react!
"Heart!" Lin Yi shouted, disregarding his exhausted Psychic Power. He controlled Silver Soul to break through the air and directly slash at the iron rod!
A sharp sound pierced through the air as a tremendous impact hit Lin Yi. He felt a sharp pain in his head and lost consciousness.
...
Even the worst hangover couldn't compare to this level of headache. The moment Lin Yi woke up, he was tormented by a stabbing pain in his head that made him want to cry out, but he ultimately endured it through sheer willpower.
"Boss, you're finally awake!" Woods' voice rang out. However, Lin Yi remained dazed for over ten seconds before fully coming to his senses. It was then that he realized he was already aboard the aircraft and had no idea who had pulled him up.
"How long was I unconscious?" Lin Yi rubbed his temples as he recalled how he had fainted.
"Not long, just about three minutes. But this really worried Ying Sa; in her anger, she fired all the ground missiles from the aircraft. At least ten thousand zombies are likely to be wiped out!" Lulu joked lightly since she hadn't seen Li Qiweng and only grasped part of the situation.
