Chapter 155: Everyone listen to the order

Lin Chen waited in the medical room for half an hour, finally hearing familiar footsteps outside the door.

Xia Nuan was supported by two guards and walked in, her body covered in some dust,

a shallow scratch on her arm, but otherwise no major problems.

"Lin Chen!

" Xia Nuan saw Lin Chen on the hospital bed, walked over quickly, and held his hand,

her eyes full of worry, "You are so badly injured, it's all my fault, if I hadn't dragged you down..."

"It's not your business.

" Lin Chen interrupted her, holding her hand back, "As long as you are fine,

I was worried about you the whole time just now." The doctor finished checking Xia Nuan's wounds,

and said to the two: "Miss Xia Nuan only has skin wounds, just treat them,

Mr. Lin Chen needs to rest quietly, his ribs and arms have bone fractures, need to rest for at least three days."

The two had just finished speaking when the alarm in the medical room suddenly sounded, and the system's voice exploded in Lin Chen's mind: 【Emergency alarm! Detected a large-scale mutated creature group appearing on the outskirts of the base, including 5 elite zombies, 8 exploders, 12 shadow cats, and another high-level mutant—1 lord zombie, 1 steel beast, 1 thunderbird, moving toward the base direction, expected to arrive in 5 minutes.】

Lin Chen's expression changed drastically, struggling to get out of bed: "No, with so many mutated creatures,

the guards can't block them!" Xia Nuan pressed him down: "You can't move now, I'll go help them!"

She turned and was about to walk out, but Lin Chen pulled her: "You are too dangerous alone, I'll go with you, even if I have to hold on, I have to go."

The doctor wanted to stop him, but was persuaded by Lin Chen's firm eyes, and could only hand him a reinforced protective gear: "Wear this, it can reduce some pain,

don't use too much force." Lin Chen put on the protective gear and walked out of the medical room with Xia Nuan's support.

Just as they arrived at the base plaza, they saw a blue lightning bolt flash across the sky in the distance—the thunderbird spread its two-meter-wide wings, its sharp beak and claws glowing with electric light, diving toward the defense wall.

On the ground, the lord zombie walked at the front, its body size three times larger than an ordinary zombie,

its skin dark black, holding a rusty iron pipe in its hand, every step making the ground tremble slightly; the steel beast followed behind,

its body covered with a heavy metal shell, its four limbs thick as pillars,

constantly spraying black smoke from its mouth; the elite zombies waved long blades,

slashing down discarded cars on the roadside, the exploders expanded their bodies,

sparks occasionally emerging from the skin gaps; the shadow cats shuttled quickly in the shadows, sneaking toward the direction of the guards.

"Everyone listen to the order!

" Lin Chen shouted to the guards on the plaza, "Leave the elite zombies and shadow cats to you,

concentrate fire to hit their heads; leave the exploders to the defense guns,

don't let them get close to the wall; Xia Nuan and I will deal with the lord zombie, steel beast, and thunderbird!" The guards responded in unison, immediately dispersing and raising their weapons to fire at the mutated creature group.

Xia Nuan supported Lin Chen and walked to the defense wall. The thunderbird had already dived down,

and a lightning bolt slashed toward them. Lin Chen mobilized the remaining cold air in his body, condensing an ice shield,

the lightning hitting the ice shield, making a "hissing" sound, cracks appearing on the surface of the ice shield,

but it did not shatter. "You deal with the thunderbird, I'll block the lord zombie!" After Xia Nuan finished speaking, she raised the Purple Lightning Purification Gun and fired at the thunderbird's wings.

The bullet hit the thunderbird's wing, it let out a sharp scream, releasing lightning again,

Xia Nuan dodged flexibly, while firing continuously, attempting to limit its flight trajectory.

Lin Chen dragged his injured body and rushed toward the lord zombie,

mobilizing the basic strength of "One Punch Man", his fist wrapped in cold air,

smashing toward the lord zombie's knee. With a "bang," the lord zombie staggered,

the iron pipe sweeping toward Lin Chen horizontally, Lin Chen dodged to the side, but was still grazed by the residual wind of the iron pipe, the protective gear instantly deformed, and excruciating pain came from his ribs.

The steel beast saw the lord zombie being attacked and rushed toward Lin Chen, its heavy claws slapping the ground,

the ground cracking into a deep trench. Lin Chen hurriedly retreated, while releasing Absolute Zero, the cold air spreading toward the steel beast's legs, attempting to freeze its joints.

But the steel beast's metal shell was too thick, the cold air could only condense a layer of thin ice on the surface, unable to limit its movements at all.

"Lin Chen!

Be careful behind!" Xia Nuan's voice came, Lin Chen looked back, seeing an exploder rushing toward him,

its body already beginning to expand. He hurriedly mobilized energy, kicking the exploder flying,

the exploder exploding in the air, the shockwave blowing away the surrounding elite zombies.

The thunderbird took the opportunity to dive, its sharp beak pecking toward Lin Chen's shoulder, Xia Nuan fired in time, hitting the thunderbird's head, it screamed and flew away, feathers on its wings falling all over the ground.

The lord zombie raised the iron pipe again, smashing toward Lin Chen, Lin Chen did not dodge this time,

but gathered all his strength, smashing a fist into the iron pipe. With a "crack,"

the iron pipe was smashed and broken, and Lin Chen's fist also felt excruciating pain, the bone fracture under the protective gear seeming to worsen.

He did not stop, smashing another fist into the lord zombie's chest, the cold air instantly spreading,

the lord zombie's movements becoming sluggish, Xia Nuan took the opportunity to fire, the bullet hitting its head, the lord zombie fell to the ground, twitching a few times, and stopped moving.

The steel beast saw the lord zombie being killed, becoming even more ferocious, rushing toward Lin Chen.

Lin Chen just wanted to dodge, but felt his whole body weak, the wounds under the protective gear making him almost faint.

Xia Nuan hurriedly ran over, supporting him to dodge the steel beast's impact, while shouting to the system: "System! Is there any support? We can't hold on anymore!"

【Detected the host's current crisis, all defense guns in the base have been deployed to aim at the steel beast and thunderbird, countdown 3 seconds—3, 2, 1, fire!】 Dozens of shells flew toward the steel beast and thunderbird, the steel beast hit by the shells, cracks appearing on the metal shell, the thunderbird hit by the shells on its wings, falling heavily to the ground. Lin Chen looked at the fallen steel beast and thunderbird, breathed a sigh of relief, but because of physical exhaustion, fell into Xia Nuan's arms, his consciousness gradually blurring. ===== CHAPTER 156 =====

Xia Nuan hurried over, supporting him as she dodged the impact of the steel behemoth, while shouting at the system: "System! Is there any support? We can't hold on much longer!"

【Crisis detected for the host; all base defense cannons have been mobilized and aimed at the steel behemoth and the lightning bird. Countdown 3 seconds—3, 2, 1, fire!】 Dozens of shells flew toward the steel behemoth and the lightning bird. The steel behemoth was struck by the shells, its metal shell cracking, while the lightning bird was hit in the wing by a shell and slammed heavily onto the ground. Watching the fallen steel behemoth and lightning bird, Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but due to exhaustion, he collapsed into Xia Nuan's arms, his consciousness gradually fading.
