In this situation, David decided he needed to resolve things quickly. The best approach was to use firearms. Although firearms didn’t have a significant effect on these high-level zombies, they could at least slow down their advance.
Furthermore, these firearms had been modified and upgraded by David, making them more powerful than regular ones. Without hesitation, David pulled out a heavy machine gun.
“Fatso, catch!” David threw the heavy machine gun to Fatso, who immediately lit up at the sight of it.
At the same time, David handed out various modified weapons to the others. He himself wielded a Desert Eagle and resumed the fight. Suddenly, the entire battlefield resounded with the continuous sound of gunfire. Bullets poured forth, piercing into the bodies of the high-level zombies.
Though these attacks didn’t cause substantial harm to the zombies, they did elicit expressions of pain on their faces.
Seizing the opportunity, David shouted loudly to Sally, “Quickly seal up that rift!”
During this time, David noticed a constant stream of advanced zombies emerging from the rift. If they didn’t close it, their situation would only get more dire.
Upon hearing David’s words, Sally nodded. She levitated in the air, her eyes closed as crackling sounds of thunder erupted from her body.
With Sally’s heightened level, her lightning-based abilities had reached a new peak. Suddenly, she opened her eyes, emitting a white lightning bolt from her gaze. Raising her right hand and pointing it toward the rift in the sky, Sally uttered, “Purple Dragon Thunder!”
As Sally’s voice echoed, a lightning bolt as thick as a large tree trunk appeared out of thin air, resembling a serpentine dragon weaving through the clouds. It twisted its massive body and struck down forcefully at the rift.
“Boom!” Earth-shattering sounds rang out in the sky. Everyone looked up to see that the advanced zombies emerging from the rift were shattered by the lightning bolt, while the rift itself seemed to feel the power of Sally’s lightning and began slowly closing.
“We did it!” Arnold exclaimed excitedly, tossing a high-explosive grenade into the midst of the zombies. The explosion shattered the arms and legs of dozens of zombies, greatly weakening their attack power.
“Let the real slaughter begin!” David’s voice was resolute as he observed the high-level zombies struggling. He tossed aside his Desert Eagle and leaped into the air, his twin blades spinning and dancing like sea dragons among the zombies.
Under David’s twin blades, numerous injured zombies quickly turned into piles of minced meat. The others followed suit, using their own esper abilities to clear the surrounding area of zombies. In no time, over a hundred high-level zombies had been wiped out.
David sheathed his twin blades and crushed the last high-level zombie’s head under his foot. He looked up at Danny in the sky. At that moment, Danny’s expression had turned grim. He hadn’t expected his sea of corpses tactic to fail so quickly. Gazing at the pile of zombie bodies, he gritted his teeth and glared at David.
“Don’t think you’re so impressive. In front of me, you’re nothing more than an ant! I will personally kill you and show you the might of the King of the Apocalypse!” As he spoke, Danny raised his head to gaze at the red light in the sky.
Under Sally’s attack of the Purple Dragon Thunder just now, the rift had already closed, yet the red light showed no signs of dissipating. The entire sky remained as shocking as blood.
A cold smirk spread across Danny’s face. As long as the Second Red Light was present, he would be the sole ruler of the apocalypse. He intended to use the Second Red Light to show David the horror of the desolate world.
Meanwhile, David looked at him and slowly spoke, “There is no king in the apocalypse, only survivors. You’ve chosen the wrong path from the beginning, and that has sealed your fate. Only death awaits you.” 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍．𝒆𝒕
David didn’t hesitate to disregard the previous relationship between him and Danny. The current Danny had completely lost his sanity and no longer regarded anyone present as worthy. In such a situation, it was better to confront him head-on.
“Oh? Is that so? Well, let’s see if you have the strength to kill me!” Danny’s eyebrows furrowed, his tone particularly hostile. An overbearing and arrogant aura emanated from him, as if he wanted to consume everything around him.
The next moment, Danny raised both hands, and behind him, buildings seemed to disintegrate. Large chunks of stone and steel bars broke free from the walls, hovering silently behind him.
“Can you withstand this attack?” Danny’s bloodthirsty laughter rang out as he pointed at David. The massive stones and steel bars behind him swiftly hurtled toward them. “Whoosh, whoosh!” The speed was so intense that it created sonic booms as they cut through the air.
Seeing the barrage of giant stones and steel bars approaching, David’s pupils contracted. Without hesitation, he opened a spatial gate and swiftly shuttled among the group, transporting them all to a safe location. Even so, the massive stones were getting closer and closer. Just as he had finished transporting everyone and only Cola and Little Black remained at the original spot, a grinding wheel-sized boulder appeared behind him.
David turned his head and, with a single strike of his Void-Shattering Fist, shattered the boulder into countless smaller pieces. The debris fell to the ground, losing all attack power. David scooped up Cola and Little Black, then teleported them into Sally’s arms.
“You’re no match for Danny. Stay here!” With those words left behind, David disappeared from his original position and reappeared in front of Danny.
Watching David, worry began to gnaw at everyone’s hearts. They knew that this battle was more perilous than any before. The opponent’s strength surpassed all previous adversaries. They believed in David, but what if Danny employed some insidious scheme when David wasn’t paying attention?
Only Monica remained frozen in place, her face still a picture of sorrow and indignation. Nothing had hurt her more than the betrayal by her teammate. Now Danny even wanted her to die here. She didn’t know what Danny had gone through to become this heartless. Yet, the situation before her forced her to reluctantly believe it all.
Monica looked at David, wiped away her tears, and her expression turned resolute. Taking a step forward, she yelled loudly at David, “David, please help me kill him!” She stared at Danny, her eyes bloodshot.
David glanced at Monica and silently nodded. Today, he had to kill Danny, not only for the sake of Butterfly Alvin and Monica, but also for the secrets and rules of the apocalypse.
