Chapter 1108: Chapter 1108
The desolate wilderness.
"Get to work, get to work, this communication hub needs to be fixed quickly."
"The damage is quite severe, looks like it’s going to take some time."
The communications soldiers looked at the hub in front of them, some small communication devices had fallen off, covered in dust, clearly not touched for a while.
Meanwhile, there were some decayed corpses on the ground, which had been there for a long time as well.
They must have fallen from a height.
The people on site could imagine being chased by zombies with nowhere to escape, only able to climb the hub.
Thinking they could escape to ascend to heaven.
The final result was still death.
Even without witnessing it firsthand, one could still imagine how desperate they were at the time.
Zombies are like mad dogs, climbing high is useless, once their numbers peak, they can drag you down.
Tan Qing was guarding with several Awakeners.
Repairing the hub is a very important task, even though it’s the apocalypse now, people might think there’s no use for a signal, but actually, it is very useful.
Leaving a regular phone number in the "Zombie Album."
Escaping to the hub once it’s fixed and covered by a signal.
Simply dial the phone.
Even if surrounded by thousands of troops, rescue could arrive in an instant, who knows how many people could be saved.
"Slow down, be careful."
Tan Qing reminded them, to avoid any danger from working at heights, falling isn’t a joke.
The soldiers climbing on top responded cheerfully, this is their professional domain.
Observing the surroundings, Tan Qing stood there smoking and waiting, the waiting process was a bit boring.
With his sixth-stage ability, his hearing was very keen, he frowned slightly, familiar noises arrived.
Such sounds only zombies make.
The communications soldiers repairing equipment on the hub saw the situation first, "Brother Tan, zombies are coming."
Encountering zombies when going out for repairs is normal, they have encountered many during this time, generally without any worries.
"Oh, it’s fine, you keep busy with your work, leave it to me."
Tan Qing stubbed out his cigarette, jumped onto the top of the armored vehicle, and looked into the distance, seeing the shuffling, wandering zombies.
"Here comes the fun." ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵
Others would be scared out of their wits in such a situation.
But for Tan Qing, the waiting process was so dull and tedious, being able to have a close encounter with zombies, such joy was unparalleled.
A gift in times of trouble is better than decorating,
These zombies are indeed gifts in hard times.
There is no denying that the Awakeners fed by Lin Fan have become arrogant, already starting to dismiss zombies as a threat, such a change comes from the enhancement of their power.
Tan Qing casually swung his steel spear with great force, causing friction with the air, emitting a dull sound.
He leaped down, landing on the ground.
Waiting for the arrival of the zombies.
The staggering zombies saw the human in front of them, instantly becoming fierce and savage, their expressions turning extremely terrifying.
Each zombie charged like a mad dog.
"These are just ordinary zombies."
Tan Qing started picking, a bit contemptuous of the incoming zombies being merely weak.
As the zombies neared, he swung the steel spear, executing a move ’Sweeping thousands of troops’ fiercely towards the waist of the zombies, massive power erupted, instantly sending the frontline zombies flying.
Flesh and blood were mangled, their waists severed, connected only by threads of blood.
Previously, Tan Qing had to use a movement technique to deal with ordinary zombies, unlike now where a casual spear strike causes such destruction.
The augmented steel spear in Tan Qing’s hand seemed as if it was part of his arm, with a casual strike carrying immense force, splitting the touched zombies’ bodies open, their internal organs bursting out.
"With my current strength, even a casual hit far surpasses my past full efforts, the difference in ability growth is indeed huge."
Tan Qing constantly tested his strength.
If it weren’t for the enhanced steel spear.
Otherwise, with his strength, a casual swing wouldn’t just break zombies, even the steel spear would snap.
Being a strength Awakener, he understood that initially, this ability was relatively weak, but as the ability improved, the advantage of strength completely exploded.
The communication soldiers on the hub looked down at the situation.
"Brother Tan is really strong, zombies can’t even approach his range."
"That’s normal, when Old Zhong chatted with us, he mentioned that Brother Tan is well-trained, and his ability has reached the sixth stage, that kind of power burst isn’t a joke."
The stronger the companion, the more reassured they feel.
Being protected feels really good.
Then they continued back to their repairs.
At this moment, Tan Qing was enjoying the fight, he finally understood what it felt like in martial arts movies when masters with Inner Strength unleash their finishing moves.
Though he had no Inner Strength, when strength becomes overwhelming to a certain extent, the wind generated by casually swinging the steel spear could cut down nearby zombies.
Nearly a hundred ordinary zombies lay on the ground, exploded or severed, none retaining an intact body.
"The numerical advantage is useless to an Awakener who has reached a certain level of power."
Tan Qing shook his head, in the past, when the numbers of common zombies reached a certain point, it would make the surviving despair, after all, their numbers were too overwhelming, really hard to handle.
