LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 248 Battle Situation
Although the military side barely managed to survive the third wave of zombies, it really suffered heavy losses.
The military's several mobile combat teams composed of superpowers have lost more than half.
After all, being the main force against monsters while also taking care of the task of protecting the people is really... exhausting.
Most of the warriors died heroically and became the monster's meal... They didn't even leave any trace of their existence.
The military's heavy firepower played a vital role in these waves of corpses.
Ordinary superpowers simply cannot deal with out-of-spec existences like giant zombies.
If you want to kill the giant zombies, you must first consume a wave of heavy firepower and let them fall to the ground, and then let the superpowers step forward to touch up the damage.
But things actually didn't go so smoothly.
Even if the giant zombie is severely disabled, its combat power is still explosive.
Nine times out of ten, the superpowers who rush forward to hit him are mortal.
Dealing with a fourth-level zombie would consume almost a dozen mature warriors, which was a huge amount of consumption.
The number of combatants in the military has also dropped sharply from 1,500 before the first wave of zombies to 600 now, which can be said to be an exponential loss.
But no one knows how many waves there are.
If there is another wave, the military may be able to barely repel it...
But what if there are two more waves, or even more? That's probably hopeless.
This is why Jin Weiyu went out to ask for help regardless of his own safety.
There's no way around it...
If you don't ask for help, all you can do is sit back and wait for death.
This is a result that no one is willing to accept.
Fortunately, civilian survivors like Su Mingxu who did not join the military also came to help at this time.
In City H, most of the people who can survive to this stage without joining the military are people with super powers.
There is no doubt that people with superpowers exist in a way that one can block ten.
But even so, the number of people is still limited.
And they themselves are very messy.
Two people may be good comrades fighting side by side one second, but the next second they may fight over a green crystal core dropped by a monster.
After all, the essential purpose of survivors dealing with monsters is to obtain crystal cores.
Only by continuously absorbing crystal nuclei can the survivors continue to become stronger and qualified to survive in this chaotic apocalypse.
Therefore, the survivors are uncompromising in their ownership of the crystal cores.
However, there are many monsters and the battle situation is chaotic. Most of the monsters are killed by the survivors working together.
In this case, the debate became more intense.
Even if the military intervenes, most of the powerful civilian superpowers will not give in.
But Su Mingxu is a little different. He doesn't care at all about this kind of petty profit.
And Su Mingxu is really low-key in doing things.
He had little interaction with the military.
The task of negotiating with the military was given to Shi Hui...that is, the space superpower.
And Su Mingxu's only request for help this time is... to give him all the blue crystal cores obtained in this battle.
Naturally, the military will not refuse. After all, life is always more important than profit in their hearts.
Other survivors didn't have too many complaints.
After all, there are very few people with superpowers who can absorb blue crystal cores...
After seeing a superpower who forcibly absorbed the energy of a blue crystal core explode and die, most low-level superpowers no longer have the courage to try it.
The zombie tide launched attacks from two directions in total.
On one side is the south gate, which is mainly guarded by military combat personnel.
After all, the tide of corpses mainly came from the south gate. It was impossible for the military to leave this arduous task to these "good Samaritans" who came to help.
On the other side is the north gate, which is where Su Mingxu is standing now.
This area is mainly guarded by a squad of civilian survivors, responsible for cleaning up the small-scale zombie tide that comes from this area.
Of course, there are still some military combat personnel who help.
The military is worried that these civilian survivors will face these terrible monsters alone.
However, the combat personnel sent by the military were almost exhausted after the third wave of zombies.
Just now, Su Mingxu asked Su Zi to use basic light attribute abilities on them, allowing them to recover.
But it will definitely be too late to fully recover before the next wave of zombies arrives.
As for the private team of superpowers... there are only a small part left.
It is mainly caused by "unequal distribution of spoils".
After a monster was killed, most people rushed forward to grab the crystal core.
Then the monsters from behind came up... and they had no time to escape.
Then the result is of course one can imagine.
Looking at the group of people with powers snatching away, Su Mingxu found it quite funny anyway.
Thanks to Su Mingxu's existence, otherwise the North Gate would have been lost long ago.
Almost every fourth-level monster was killed by Su Mingxu and his group, so the pressure on others was naturally reduced a lot.
Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho!
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Wow wow wow wow!
The sky-shattering roar, the trembling whimpering of the earth, the raging fire...
All of a sudden these things appeared at the same time.
Looking at these signs, the survivors once again showed expressions of despair.
"It seems that the fourth wave of zombies is coming... I wonder if the South Gate can hold on. By the way, can Colonel Jin really bring back reinforcements in time... Or are the people in P City all selfish?" Su Mingxu said thoughtfully.
No matter what, Su Mingxu had no intention of running away.
"Ake, Amu. You two go to the South Gate to help. Zi'er and I are enough here." Su Mingxu said to the two people who were ready to go.
"Brother Ming! There are only a few remnants left at the North Gate... Are you going to face those man-eating beasts alone?" Yang Mu was puzzled.
"What? Are you doubting my strength?"
"No, no, no... Brother Ming's strength is self-evident, otherwise I would not follow Brother Ming."
"Silly big guy, why are you talking so much nonsense... Brother Ming asked us to go to the South Gate to help, so we should go to help. Are you scared?" Yan Ke pushed his glasses and said to Yang Mu.
Hearing this, Yang Mu's temper instantly came up.
"You... who are you calling a coward?! Go ahead, let me show you how I perform!"
After that, the two left.
Looking at the two people going away, Su Mingxu couldn't help but complain.
"Ake's provocation is still more effective..."
"Mingxu... are we going to continue to deal with those monsters next?"
Compared to calling Su Mingxu brother, Su Zi prefers to call him by his name.
Su Mingxu also feels that this name seems more intimate.
"Yeah. Are you scared, Zi'er?" Su Mingxu responded.
