Chapter 159: Mysterious White Porridge
Lin Chen and Xia Nuan finished familiarizing themselves with the new base functions at the console,
when their stomachs suddenly made a "gurgling" sound. The two looked at each other,
only then remembering that they had only eaten a bowl of hot noodle soup from morning until now. "Let's go to the kitchen to find something to eat,
just right to test if infinite material generation can get something different." Xia Nuan said. Lin Chen nodded, following her toward the kitchen.
Pushed open the kitchen door,
but the two were stunned in place—the remaining ingredients had long been used up,
on the storage shelf only half a bag of damp rice was placed, and in the corner there were a few dead cockroaches and a rotten cabbage,
the cabbage leaves yellowing, the edges already rotten. "How to eat this?" Xia Nuan frowned,
but still picked up the rotten cabbage, peeled off the rotten parts, leaving a few leaves that were relatively intact in the middle; Lin Chen cleaned up the dead cockroaches, poured the rice into the pot, added some water, and lit the gas stove.
"Make do with some porridge, better than being hungry." Lin Chen said. Xia Nuan chopped the processed cabbage leaves,
put them into the pot, and the two watched the white porridge in the pot slowly boil, the cabbage leaves rolling in the porridge,
although the appearance was not good, it emitted a faint rice fragrance. After the porridge was cooked, Lin Chen served two bowls and handed one to Xia Nuan: "Taste it, maybe the taste is okay."
Xia Nuan blew on the porridge,
took a sip,
and said unexpectedly: "Not bad, just a bit bland." Lin Chen also took a sip,
it was indeed better than imagined, the two didn't say much more, and soon drank the two bowls of porridge cleanly,
even scraping the bottom of the pot. "Didn't expect dead cockroaches and rotten cabbage stewed white porridge to be so fragrant.
" Xia Nuan put down the bowl and said with a smile. Lin Chen nodded, just wanted to clean up the bowls and chopsticks, when the base alarm suddenly sounded.
The system's voice came urgently,
【Emergency alarm! Detected large-scale enemies approaching from the east, west, and north sides of the base simultaneously, including 300 human enemies, 500 ordinary zombies, 20 elite zombies, 15 exploders, 30 shadow cats, 2 lord zombies, expected to arrive at the outskirts of the base in 3 minutes.】
Lin Chen's expression sank, pulling Xia Nuan and walking quickly toward the console: "Quickly activate the defense system, automatic machine guns and defense guns all aimed at the enemy direction!"
Xia Nuan immediately pressed the red button on the console, the automatic machine guns around the base began to rotate,
the gun muzzles aimed at different directions; the transparent energy shield rose again, glowing with faint golden light.
The two stood in front of the console, watching the enemies in the distance through the screen—human enemies wearing uniform black uniforms, holding long guns and rocket launchers,
rushing toward the base direction; zombie groups followed behind, ordinary zombies roaring and staggering forward,
elite zombies waving long blades to slash open discarded cars blocking the road, exploders expanding their bodies,
shadow cats shuttling quickly in the shadows, lord zombies walking with heavy steps, every step making the ground tremble slightly.
"Prepare to output!
" Lin Chen shouted to the system, while mobilizing Absolute Zero, condensing dozens of ice spikes,
aimed at the human enemies at the front. Xia Nuan also mobilized the shared ability,
smashing a fist onto the attack button of the console, the automatic machine guns instantly firing,
bullets pouring toward the enemies like raindrops; the defense guns also roared, shells dragging flames, falling into the middle of the enemies, exploding into flowers of fire.
Human enemies fell in a group, but there were still many people rushing to the energy shield,
firing at the energy shield with rocket launchers. Rocket shells hit the energy shield,
making "bang-bang" sounds, the energy shield rippling, but not breaking. "How much longer can the energy shield hold?" Xia Nuan asked.
【Current energy shield strength remaining 80%, can resist continuous attacks for 30 minutes.】 The system finished answering.
Lin Chen took the opportunity to release ice spikes, the ice spikes penetrating the energy shield and flying toward the elite zombies,
several elite zombies hit by the ice spikes falling to the ground; Xia Nuan mobilized extreme kick,
kicking the exploders approaching the energy shield from the air, the exploders kicked flying,
exploding in the air, the shockwave blowing away the surrounding zombies and human enemies.
Shadow cats tried to sneak in from the gaps at the back of the base, but were hit by the bullets of the automatic machine guns, falling to the ground one after another.
The lord zombie saw its companions falling constantly, letting out an angry roar, rushing toward the energy shield,
smashing a fist onto the energy shield, the strength of the energy shield instantly dropping to 70%.
"I'll go deal with the lord zombie! You control the defense system here!
" After Lin Chen finished speaking, he opened the base gate, leaped out, mobilized the full power of One Punch Man, his fist wrapped in thick cold air, smashing toward the chest of one of the lord zombies.
With a "bang,"
the lord zombie was smashed back a few steps, Lin Chen took the opportunity to smash another punch,
smashing into its head, the lord zombie falling to the ground and not moving anymore. The other lord zombie saw this,
pouncing toward Lin Chen, Lin Chen dodged to the side, while releasing Absolute Zero, freezing its legs,
the lord zombie unable to move, Xia Nuan took the opportunity to control the defense gun, a shell hitting its head, the lord zombie instantly blown up.
Human enemies saw the lord zombie being killed, beginning to panic, many people turning around wanting to run,
but were caught up by the bullets of the automatic machine guns, falling to the ground. Ordinary zombies and elite zombies were still rushing toward the energy shield, but were constantly killed by ice spikes and shells,
the ground full of corpses and bloodstains, the explosions of exploders one after another, the corpses of shadow cats scattered in every corner.
30 minutes later, the last human enemy was hit by the automatic machine gun and fell to the ground; the last ordinary zombie was also pierced through the head by the ice spikes condensed by Xia Nuan. Lin Chen returned to the base, looking at the "all enemies cleared" displayed on the screen, breathing a sigh of relief. Xia Nuan walked over, handing him a bottle of water: "Finally over, fortunately there is a new defense system, otherwise so many enemies really couldn't be blocked." Lin Chen took the water, drank a sip, looking at the enemy corpses all over the ground outside the base, nodding: "In the future, if we encounter such a situation again, we can also cope." ===== CHAPTER 160 =====
