Chapter 640: Chapter 264 Flame Monster_2
“`
But considering the current situation, it seems that it’s not impossible!
“Let’s check other places, if there really are many giant zombies in Wuyang City, and they are all on the outskirts… then we can only head back.”
Wang Tao shook his head helplessly.
He Jijun piloted the helicopter, continuing to detour.
Then, Wang Tao spotted the fifth, the sixth… the tenth giant zombie!
Everyone else also became utterly helpless.
No matter whether these giant zombies were lying in wait or not, they couldn’t get into the city.
And everyone was worried that if these giant zombies discovered the location of the military base, they might be able to trample it flat…
“What do you think, Wang Tao?”
He Jijun looked at Wang Tao.
Although they hadn’t been discovered by the giant zombies and hadn’t caused a zombie tide, because they had taken such a long detour, there wasn’t much fuel left in the helicopter.
At most, they could keep searching for another half-hour. Once half an hour was up, whether they made it into the city or not, they would have to leave. They needed to save enough fuel for the helicopter, to maintain a margin for error.
“Keep going! I just don’t believe it! Anyway, Old He, you watch the time; when it’s time, just leave!”
Wang Tao said, clenching his fist.
“Alright!”
The helicopter once again changed direction from afar, heading towards another area.
“Hmm? What’s going on over there?”
After flying for a while, they finally encountered an area free of giant zombies. Before Wang Tao and his companions could feel relieved, they noticed a cluster of houses on fire. It was raining, yet the fire didn’t die down, instead, it grew even more intense!
“That seems to be a warehouse?”
Yang Changhong said uncertainly, as the helicopter flew quite high and she couldn’t see clearly even with binoculars.
Wang Tao asked He Jijun to lower the altitude a bit. There were no giant zombies in this area, so it should be safe.
Whirr—
As the helicopter descended, the loud noise gradually spread downwards, and many zombies on the ground began to look up into the sky.
Wang Tao and his companions finally got a clear view of the scene of the fire. It seemed to be a warehouse-like place, with many standardized low-rise buildings burning fiercely.
The flames surged, bellowing smoke billowed.
Wang Tao felt it couldn’t have caught fire without reason, especially since it was raining, and it wasn’t extremely hot and dry weather that might cause spontaneous combustion.
“Could there be survivors?”
Wang Tao wondered.
If it wasn’t spontaneous combustion, then it must be man-made. Zombies couldn’t possibly start a fire, right? So most likely it was survivors!
If there really were survivors in Wuyang City, then Wang Tao definitely wanted to meet them. Surviving in such an environment was something even he thought he couldn’t achieve.
At the mention of survivors, Yang Changhong suddenly grew excited. The reason she came to Wuyang City was to find her sister.
But unfortunately, after they entered Wuyang City, they only found one living person, He Jijun, and no other survivors.
Although she didn’t want to believe it, Yang Changhong knew that her sister was most likely out of luck.
Now suddenly discovering a possible Ability User, Yang Changhong grew excited! What if there was news of her sister!
But soon, Yang Changhong became disappointed.
As the helicopter descended, she clearly saw there were no zombies or human figures inside the burning warehouse. There were many zombies outside the warehouse, but they weren’t surrounding it—if there were people inside, the zombies wouldn’t be so calm.
And as the noise from their helicopter grew louder, wouldn’t any survivors come out to look if there were any? After all, it was a military helicopter, a symbol of the military…
Wang Tao was also disappointed; he hadn’t seen any human traces.
Unless someone had intentionally hidden away, but the area was fairly flat and open. With a fire raging, there were not many places to hide.
“It seems there are no survivors left. Or maybe the survivors have already left—huh?”
Wang Tao cut himself off abruptly.
He quickly rubbed his eyes.
“What’s wrong?”
Yang Changhong asked.
“There seems to be something in the sea of fire… Holy shit! A Level 4, Lord!”
Wang Tao pointed somewhat dazedly at a spot in the midst of the inferno.
Yang Changhong and the others followed Wang Tao’s gaze and indeed noticed something amiss.
In the raging sea of fire, there was a shadow with flames burning all over its body!
Judging by its figure, it was shaped like a tall human. However, its facial features were indistinct, perhaps it didn’t have any at all!
This flame-like shadow was in a hazy state, causing all to doubt if they were seeing things or mistaking the flames for a person. But it truly was different from the surrounding flames and quite resembled a… person!
“What is that thing?!”
Everyone was amazed at the sight.
When Wang Tao had been observing the scene, he subconsciously ignored the sea of fire.
After all, humans couldn’t be in the flames. Zombies, though not able to retain fire on their bodies for long due to the flame-retardant effect of their blood, didn’t mean they weren’t afraid of fire. They were carbon-based life forms; how could they not fear fire?
But this being was indeed in the middle of the sea of flames, and it seemed to be an energy body composed of flames!
However, when Wang Tao saw its specific attributes, he suddenly understood. It was a monster!
