In a low-lying grove not far from the Masai Tribe, two young people stood seemingly at ease, yet their expressions betrayed a hint of panic as they glanced around nervously.
"We originally had a slim chance of survival, but now that we're with him, I estimate we'll die even faster!" said one of them, a young man with a scar running across his brow.
"The boss trusts him; what can we do? Going out now is certain death, and that person won't spare us!" replied the other young man, his voice deep and somewhat simple-minded.
The scarred youth sighed, "So are we just going to keep running endlessly? When will this end?"
"Let's take it one step at a time. We've made it through these past few years; I feel like this might be an opportunity!" The simple-minded youth wasn't truly simple; in fact, he was more aware than others about using his brain in tough situations.
A sudden ferocity flashed across the scarred youth's face as he lowered his voice. "What if we hand him over? Wouldn't that mean we could avoid dying?"
...
Lin Yi stared at Pearl Amigal until Pearl confirmed that he had told Jerry he was right there. Lin Yi's face instantly turned pale.
"It's over; we need to leave immediately, and you all should too!"
At that moment, Pearl finally understood why Lin Yi was so anxious, but he still chuckled lightly. "Don't worry; Jerry won't betray us!"
"First of all, I'm not sure what he's thinking right now. Does he really believe I'm Zombie? Secondly, with today's technology, the moment you contacted him, our location was already exposed!"
Lin Yi slapped his forehead and briefly explained to Pearl Amigal. Despite having lived in such an environment for years, Pearl was still unfamiliar with technologies he had never encountered before.
"So you mean we've already been discovered?" Pearl asked uncertainly.
Lin Yi nodded vigorously. "Yes! You all need to evacuate with me right now; it will be too late otherwise!"
"However, we have old and young here. Evacuating everyone is really not an easy task!" Pearl Amigal looked around, feeling somewhat troubled. He still couldn't understand how his one action could lead to such great trouble.
"Don't worry. We're only temporarily evacuating. Once the danger has passed, we'll come back!" Lin Yi felt an increasing sense of unease, a signal from a skilled individual sensing impending danger.
Yet Pearl Amigal continued to look at Lin Yi with his murky eyes, appearing indecisive.
"Our entire tribe has grown to tens of thousands over the years. We can't just up and leave! The previous Zombie Crisis was already serious enough. There were rumors that I had died, that the whole tribe had perished, yet here we are, living just fine!"
Elderly individuals often held onto their beliefs stubbornly. Lin Yi knew he couldn't reason with them at this moment, so he shouted, "Everyone gather up! We're leaving immediately!"
As soon as Lin Yi's words fell, several figures appeared in a flash. Standing closest to Lin Yi was Froeman. After a night of rest, Froeman had nearly recovered his spirits. However, Renesmee, the twin brothers, and Tina still looked somewhat haggard from overexerting their abilities.
As for Nicolas, having suffered serious injuries twice in a row, he had yet to recover and was still resting inside the house.
At that moment, Gal hurried over with a puzzled expression and asked Lin Yi, "What's going on, Captain?"
"Our position has been exposed. Someone might come after us soon. For safety's sake, you all should go hide for a bit!"
Lin Yi intended to leave first himself but felt uneasy about it.
While Lin Yi and the others were debating this matter, at the African Union Base Weapon Control Center, only two people remained in the vast central hall. One held the rank of Colonel while the other was dressed casually, frowning as he stared at the screens in the control hall.
"Colonel, I just want to ask if we can level that location with Base Weapons!" The Civilian Man clicked on the screen several times with one hand, causing several enlarged virtual images to appear before him.
"But there are tens of thousands of people there. If we directly use such high-energy weapons, you know what the consequences would be!" The Colonel maintained his military stance despite fearing the authority of the man before him and did not comply with the Civilian Man's request.
The Civilian Man suddenly lifted his head and glanced at the Colonel. The Colonel then walked straight to the control panel, his hands swiftly inputting a series of commands.
"Base Weapon activation complete, beginning lock-on!"
"Lock-on complete, ten seconds countdown to launch preparation!"
"Ten!"
"Nine!"
...
Meanwhile, in the square of the Masai Tribe, a considerable crowd had gathered. Gal, as the Chief of Security here, bore a heavy responsibility, tasked with mobilizing everyone, leaving him little time to think about his beloved wife waiting for him inside the house.
However, with people of all ages scattered over a range of several kilometers, mobilizing them was no easy task. More critically, they were confused about where the danger lay and were somewhat uncooperative.
Fortunately, Pearl Amigal realized at the last moment that if something were to happen, it would be significant, and stepping outside to avoid it wasn't too difficult.
Suddenly, Lin Yi felt his heart tremble violently; it was a strange sensation, as if warning him that something was about to happen.
In the next instant, a powerful force descended, and Lin Yi sensed the air around him suddenly solidifying! This feeling of danger was not new to Lin Yi; he had been locked on by the Base Laser Cannon!
Almost in an instant, Lin Yi, who had been highly alert, blurred and vanished from sight.
"Boom!"
A tremendous explosion echoed through the air, and a bottomless black hole suddenly appeared where Lin Yi had just been standing, surrounded by the acrid smell of scorched earth and stone.
"Retreat!" Lin Yi howled, his face twisted in a grimace as he looked at the crowd.
The people who had been waiting in line for a collective evacuation were stunned by the sudden descent of the Laser Cannon. They disregarded Gal's commands and began to scatter in all directions.
Instantly, cries and curses filled the air, and the once orderly group descended into chaos. They never expected that a red beam would suddenly strike down, creating a deep pit in the ground.
At that moment, Lin Yi was on high alert; he knew that the danger was only just beginning. Suddenly, he felt a strange wave of energy radiating around him.
"Everyone, quiet!"
A serene voice rang out amidst the chaos. Lin Yi steadied himself and turned to see that it was Pearl Amigal speaking.
As he thought about it, Lin Yi quickly realized this was Pearl Amigal's Ability. He had always believed that only Jerry could use this technique to confuse people's minds, but it turned out that Pearl Amigal could do it too—and even more powerfully.
Soon, tens of thousands of people obediently stood according to Pearl Amigal's instructions. However, Lin Yi noticed that Pearl Amigal appeared suddenly older; her once full head of white hair began to fall away with the wind.
At that moment, dozens of sonic booms erupted in the sky. Lin Yi's ears twitched as his Psychic Power surged forth!
In his perception, countless Missiles were whistling toward them at thirty times the speed of sound! He sensed the distinctive lightning spear marking—this was the powerful Spear of God Air-to-Ground Missile!
What had once been a distance of several dozen kilometers now loomed dangerously close in an instant! The sheer number of these airborne Missiles was enough to turn the entire tribe into scorched earth!
"Fire!" At this point, escape was utterly impossible for ordinary people. Lin Yi gathered all his strength and tore apart the surrounding space!
In the next moment, a massive Spatial Rift, towering three meters high and over thirty meters wide, appeared before everyone.
"Have them hold hands and jump in together!" Lin Yi knew he couldn't rush in with all these people at once.
At that moment, Pearl Amigal remained the calmest of them all. He immediately waved his hand to the crowd, and everyone quickly grasped each other's hands. Lin Yi took hold of the last person and then gestured for Pearl Amigal to signal them to move forward swiftly.
At this point, Pearl Amigal's previously gaunt face was now drenched in sweat; clearly, managing such a large group was taking its toll on him! But just as he thought this, the deafening sound of sonic booms grew even louder.
Tens of thousands of people squeezed toward the narrow thirty-meter-wide rift, moving at what seemed like a snail's pace in Lin Yi's eyes.
"Everyone, help me block those Missiles!" Lin Yi realized that he couldn't rely solely on his own strength anymore!
As soon as he finished speaking, Renesmee was the first to act! With a sharp whistle, several massive ice spikes began to form in front of her chest.
Then, with a flick of her delicate hand, the ice spikes shot directly toward the first wave of Missiles.
At that moment, something miraculous happened: before the ice spikes even made contact with the Missiles, they exploded in advance, coalescing into a gigantic ice net that effectively halted the Missiles' momentum!
The seemingly precarious ice net was surprisingly resilient, successfully blocking the force of the Missiles! Under the tremendous impact, these Spear of God missiles erupted with thunderous explosions that seemed capable of tearing the very sky apart. The subsequent Missiles were affected by these blasts and detonated prematurely.
A massive amount of energy was released in that area, as if a hurricane had suddenly swept over the tribe. The low shrubs were pressed flat against the ground by the shockwave, and many items hanging outside the tribe were blown apart by this powerful gust.
