Chapter 1540

~7 min read 1,349 words

Charred, carbonized, annihilation.

The continually expanding blue light spheres, like mushrooms after rain, kept sprouting one after another on the ground.

The corpse horde, packed to the limit, was rapidly devoured.

If we talk about a normal nuclear blast, at most it can kill fewer than a million zombies in a single strike.

With a hundred nuclear bombs, being able to kill over fifty million is already the limit.

But under extremely high density and with the mutants actively converging,

There were no city buildings to serve as barriers.

Like layers of stacked corpse tides, at this moment they actually died nearly ten times more, so that over a third of the zombies were instantly cleared!

Even a large number of third-stage mutants capable of escaping suffered heavy losses under such high-density concentration.

In midair, the giant face beside the coastline stared blankly as the nearby corpse tide was destroyed.

An incredulous sense of shock burst forth in his heart for the first time.

The blinding light seemed to mock their foolishness.

They of course knew about nuclear weapons.

But no matter how they thought, they never imagined that the Long An faction's forces in North America could actually deploy such a thing.

Not only that.

Under ordinary nuclear bombs that leave radiation, which conversely strengthens the zombies,

Deep down, they never thought humans would dare to detonate such a weapon on their own planet!

That's suicide! It's a price humanity cannot bear!

"How dare they!? Are they looking to die!?"

"Do they want to destroy their own world!?"

He shouted in anger, questioning as if he could not accept it at all!

After a long silence, a fugitive with a sheep's head, filled with shock and rage, burst out cursing!

Under the attack of a hundred nuclear bombs, not only did the corpse tide they painstakingly detonated suffer heavy losses, but more importantly, it made them feel they had been far too foolish!

They were practically doing Lin An a huge favor, like idiots, luring out and killing the hardest-to-kill zombies in the city!

Just...

No! It's not that they're too stupid! It's not that they didn't think of it! Rather, these humans are simply committing suicide!

Who could have imagined, who could have imagined that Lin An is such a heartless, lunatic madman!

And moreover, no one is stopping Lin An!

"This isn't an ordinary nuclear bomb!"

Staring fixedly at the blue light sphere, the giant face drew a deep breath and couldn't help retorting the sheep-headed one's words.

"This thing is a new weapon that appeared before!"

"After detonation there is no nuclear radiation!"

After the words fell, the giant face said that, yet his expression grew even uglier.

No nuclear radiation means they truly died for nothing.

Lin An not only suffered no loss, but perhaps after surviving this battle he might even have to thank them!

He seemed unwilling to admit his mistake.

The giant face drew a deep breath and looked toward the Annihilation Overlord.

His mind raced, and he forced himself to speak despite his reluctance:

"Annihilation Overlord, it's fine; everything is still under our control!"

"Lin An even used nuclear bombs; this shows he's already at the end of his rope, making a final desperate struggle!"

"Killing a few zombies is nothing! The remaining numbers are beyond what he can withstand!"

After the words fell, the other fugitives hurriedly chimed in agreement.

No matter what, even if it's just to save face, they have to say that!

Make them admit their mistake?

Admit in front of these alien species that they are incapable?

That is absolutely impossible!

Moreover, thinking that way seems not wrong.

He raised his head, the Annihilation Overlord gave a low chuckle, and suddenly his gaze calmly turned to the giant face.

All that could be seen was him remaining silent for a long while, a strange flicker passing through his eyes.

For no known reason.

When things had come to this point, when he realized perhaps he really was mistaken,

he suddenly came to understand something.

He was no longer angry with this bunch of idiots.

His gaze swept past the giant face, and as the storm approached, he silently looked in Lin An's direction.

What is there to be angry about?

Does he have the right to be angry at these fugitives?

Essentially, isn't he also a coward, someone who dares to do nothing?

The fugitives fear death, unwilling to suffer heavy losses among the most important fourth-stage beings, even looking down on Lin An, like ostriches still brainwashing themselves.

"Well..."

"And what about me?"

A scoffing laugh.

In the doubtful gaze of the giant face, the Annihilator Overlord actually suddenly flew off in the opposite direction.

"Annihilator!? You want to leave this!?"

"You don't want to kill Lin An anymore!? You said you would personally.."

The voice was thrown behind.

No one knows what the Annihilator is thinking at this moment.

In the fierce wind, Gao Yan's eyes were filled with sorrow, a surge of unimaginable complex emotion erupting in his chest.

He knows more information than the fugitive, and knows Lin An's threat even more!

Even from some angle, the fugitive's mistake is understandable, but what gives him the right to make a mistake!

"Besides only when I have more certainty, I risked scheming against Lin An.."

"Afterwards, what else did I do?"

He gave a self-mocking laugh.

At this moment, Gao Yan's eyes suddenly flashed with determination and ruthlessness.

Under a sudden change, the born belief weakly ignited.

So stupid! Really too stupid!

He really has no way to kill Lin An!? He really can't do anything, work, only let the mutants and fugitives act!?

Cowardly is himself! How could he become like this!?

"Why would I, out of worry that the alien species die off, then have no power to kill Lin An and thus hold back!?"

"Why do I think I need to preserve my strength, in case I fail and still have strength to escape!?"

"It's because I fundamentally lack the courage to burn my boats!"

"Compared to that group of fugitives, I am the true fugitive!"

He clenched his fists tightly.

The Annihilator Overlord suddenly realized that, deep down, he actually felt he could never kill Lin An!

All his arrangements are filled with hesitation and weakness!

But, can he escape!?

After Lin An regains his strength, where can he escape to!?

One step back is ten thousand steps back!

In a daze, Gao Yan seemed to see himself who once dared to fight desperately, carving a way out from the bottom.

He once would stake everything for survival, for hope!

"When did I start becoming indecisive, start retreating?"

"Is it the appearance of Faction: Long An!? Is it him making me feel I cannot win!?"

"No!!"

"I, Gao Yan, was once a genius too! Also the hope of our civilization! I once stood at the pinnacle of power, proud of the world!"

"I... how can I flee again!?"

As if under immense life-and-death pressure, under witnessing the planet shatter, under the stimulus of the alien species' emperor dying.

The Annihilator Overlord's eyes were full of madness, a hard-to-describe enlightenment and indignation welling up deep in his spirit.

He remembers how weak Lin An was when he charged into their world.

How tragic.

What made him retreat, become like this!?

It is this power, these shackles!

Under the sky full of dark clouds.

Like the Annihilator who suddenly awakened, he abruptly raised his head to look at the sky.

"Lin An! In this world, it's not only you who dares to stake everything!"

"I am Gao Yan! Annihilator Overlord Gao Yan!"

"Boom!!"

His whole body's aura and energy, rules, psychic power, everything.

Under the Annihilator Overlord's mad impetus, it was as if bursting out from within his body, which he threw away without hesitation.

Undeterred by the fearful gazes of the last few alien species around, the Annihilator Overlord ripped open his chest and tore off his flesh.

"Come, eat my flesh!"

"Take my power! Go kill Lin An!!"
