Chapter 147: White-Haired Ghost Spider (Requesting Monthly Votes!)

Lu Xingchen’s gaze hardened; he planted one fist on the ground and adopted a leaping stance, flames roaring around him, both fists erupting in fire.

BOOM!

He blasted straight upward from where he stood, arriving before that skull-man, descending from above as a massive pillar of fire came crashing down.

“Divine · Flame of Annihilation!”

BOOM!!!! Both hands spewed colossal flames that swallowed and reflected back the flame surge spewed from the skull-man’s mouth.

Lin Xian watched this scene, silently sighing—indeed, one thing always tames another; the skull-man’s bizarre body had nearly incinerated him and Kiki when they encountered it before, yet this guy was spitting fire right back at it—and looked like he was winning!

Above the sky, a hurricane arose, instantly fueling Lu Xingchen’s flames.

“Fire affinity—I’ll lend you a hand,” Jiang Yu opened his arms; white gales violently blew away hordes of zombies beyond the high walls while simultaneously boosting Lu Xingchen’s fire.

ZOOM!

At that moment, Kiki streaked over, unleashing an invisible shockwave that slammed into the charred skull-man and countless zombie corpses, blasting them all out through the gate entrance.

“Seal it now!” Lin Xian dashed out, shouting at Wei Kexue.

WOOO~

The remaining gate power units began full operation, but only one side’s gate started moving, slowly closing a fraction.

“Cover them!”

The Taitiewei soldiers, seeing the few auxiliaries arriving to help, immediately launched fierce suppression fire, buying Lin Xian and the others precious moments as they frantically opened fire at the grotesques climbing and crowding up from outside.

The ground around the gate was littered with corpses; if not for Kiki’s fierce sweep, the area would have been completely blocked.

Seizing the opportunity, Lin Xian sprinted to the engineering room beside the massive door, activated the mechanical scanner, and began scanning the entire A-gate.

【Mechanical scan initiated】

The gate was far larger than he’d imagined—four power units total, two on each side.

“Not only are the cables severed, but the power units are short-circuited.”

【Scan complete. Fault points detected】

After the scan, he instantly forged a steel cable, rapidly connected it using mechanical repair, then repaired the power units; before the system could fully reconnect, he manually activated them to force the gate shut.

WOOO~

Outside the corridor, where battle raged fiercely, the towering alloy gate suddenly began moving, slowly closing.

Above, Kiki and Jiang Yun saw the blockage inside the gate and acted simultaneously—a hurricane and a shockwave instantly cleared away the zombie and grotesque corpses, aiding the gate’s closure.

THUD!

The towering alloy gate finally sealed shut, and the zombies that had flooded the airport were swiftly purged by internal firepower; the Taitiewei soldiers defending here immediately felt their pressure ease.

DUUOOO!!

Two 1130 CIWS fire-control radars suddenly swiveled and began firing furiously in one direction!

In the night sky, a gigantic white grotesque spider suddenly climbed up from the airport’s track, revealing its terrifying form under the searchlights.

“White-Haired Ghost Spider—Class B grotesque!” Wei Kexue shouted.

WHOOSH~ A howling gale swept past; Jiang Yun streaked through the air, calling out, “Don’t let this thing open its mouth!!”

PUPUPU…

A stream of destructive metal projectiles swept across, causing the giant spider’s blood and tissues to explode violently.

ZOOM!!! Ren Huiyan’s motorcycle raced along the defensive line’s edge, darting nimbly beneath the giant spider’s long legs, launching missiles nonstop—immediately blasting off one of its rear legs.

Lin Xian burst out of the engineering room, his heart jolted at the sight of the giant spider—this thing was dozens of times larger than the three grotesque spiders he’d seen in Yuchicheng, towering into the sky; as he saw its abdomen heave, his gaze sharpened.

“Watch out!!!”

GUGUGU~ BOOM!

The spider’s face was instantly pulverized; just as everyone thought it was finished, its truck-head-sized abdomen suddenly convulsed violently—and then exploded!

Instantly, a torrent of crimson acid rained down! “AHHH!!”

“What is that…?”

On the square, hundreds of Taitiewei soldiers and surviving civilians turned pale with horror.

PUFFBOOM!

At the same time, Jiang Yun, Kiki, and below, Lu Xingchen—all grew grim and acted together!

Wind pillar, telekinesis, explosive flame jets!

BOOM BOOM BOOM—POM POM POM!

In a single breath, nearly half the crimson acid was blasted outward onto the zombies and grotesque hordes; far more still rained down.

Flashback! Shield wall!

Metal materials from the decomposed space flew out wildly; Lin Xian accelerated to his limit, darting forward and sweeping his hand through the crowd.

CLANG CLANG CLANG CLANG!!!!

The Mechanical Heart roared to life—ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters!

A massive metal support wall erupted from the ground, Yingxiang the densest zone of falling acid.

WHOOSH!

The acid splashed down, instantly releasing a stench of rot and the searing heat of burning air; dozens of civilians and Taitiewei soldiers caught in the spray were drenched, their screams and the hissing of corrosion echoing across the entire A-gate zone.

The crowds behind scrambled backward in terror.

“Hmph!”

Kiki, pale-faced, used telekinesis to grip the massive corpse of the spider, roaring as she hurled it outward—smashing it into a white zombie climbing up; Hualala , the torrent of acid drenched the zombie horde, instantly melting an entire fan-shaped sector.

!

But she had no time to care—her anxious gaze fixed on the worst-hit zone, where a massive irregular steel wall stood, the metal corroding rapidly, pouring thick white smoke as molten iron dripped down, pockmarked with countless holes.

Yet immediately, new walls filled those holes!

Seeing this, Kiki’s eyes relaxed—this meant Lin Xian’s mechanical affinity was still active.

“Fall back!”

Behind the steel wall, Lin Xian roared; only then did the stunned Taitiewei soldiers and civilians snap out of shock, their faces pale with dread as they frantically retreated.

WOOO~

The corrosive force bent and collapsed the steel plates; seeing the crowd clear, Lin Xian released his hold, spun away—then felt an invisible force seize him, yanking him violently from behind the collapsing wall.

“Lin Xian, are you alright?” Kiki leapt down, staring at him anxiously.

Lin Xian shook his head, gasping heavily. “I’m fine.”

Looking ahead, the ground before them was nearly half-covered in white fumes from corrosion; over a dozen civilian vehicles and Taitiewei armored cars had been reduced to blackened iron frames; scattered across the ground were countless charred human fragments—each sight chilling.

HOOOOO!!

A hurricane surged, suddenly blowing the white fumes and stench outward.

Jiang Yun landed, grim-faced, and turned to Lin Xian. “Captain Lin, Engineer Wei—leave this to us. Hurry to the elevator.”

“Yes! Yes…” Wei Kexue was ashen, lips dry, clutching his laptop tightly as he followed several Taitiewei soldiers onto the shuttle bus.

“Lu Xingchen!” Lin Xian shouted to the youth whose upper clothing had been burned off, then pointed toward the tall building above, where Sha Sha and her brother were firing outward. “Protect them!”

“Lin brother, you be careful too!” Sha Sha shouted from behind the building, reloading.

Lu Xingchen panted heavily, eyes blazing with frenzied battle lust.

“The Divine One understands—I shall not break my word!”

“Little girl, come with me.” Lin Xian nodded slightly to Jiang Yun and Ren Huiyan, then immediately boarded the vehicle with Wei Kexue, heading toward the elevator.
