“Dangerous elements discovered in the fourth floor corridor.”

“Target not hit, please instruct.”

This squad’s mission was to go support Xiao Xueyin, but they unexpectedly ran into Lu Bai.

Since they had not succeeded in shooting him to kill.

Then whether to continue onward to provide support or hold the emergency exit became something that needed to be considered.

Zhou Zongming led several soldiers along the stairs to the position where the support squad was located, looked up and shouted: “What’s going on?”

After fighting until now, the troops’ casualties were extremely heavy; aside from some wounded, there were only about two or three squads that still maintained combat power.

Faced with this situation, Company Commander Zhou naturally couldn’t sit still; he left the adjutant to continue coordinating from the armored vehicle and personally shouldered his rifle to join the fight.

“Report to Company Commander, we encountered a dangerous element carrying a close-range weapon. Our side immediately conducted standard firepower suppression, but the target has not been hit.”

This squad’s captain deliberately lowered his voice to report.

Zhou Zongming thought for a moment and said: “Leave four people to guard the passage; the rest follow me.”

“Yes.”

He wasn’t clear on exactly how many people the Survey Corps had, but based on his experience, just guarding the corridor, four soldiers should have no problem.

However, when he led the remaining soldiers into the fourth floor corridor, he faintly heard screams coming from the corridor.

Most importantly, the screams seemed to be coming from downstairs.

Bang!

Not far away, one side of the corridor was blasted apart by terrifying power; two fully armed soldiers flew out horizontally, struggled a few times supporting themselves on the ground with their hands, then went completely silent.

“Damn it!”

Zhou Zongming realized there was no time to think too much now; he could only trust the adjutant in the temporary command center first. He gritted his teeth, gripped his already chambered assault rifle tightly: “Follow me up!”

……

Lu Bai leaned leisurely against the corridor wall, not in a hurry to step out and reveal his identity to Zhou Zongming.

After reinforcement from the zombie virus, his hearing was abnormally sharp, allowing him to clearly discern what was happening.

Because behind Zhou Zongming’s group of people…

“The footsteps are so light, and a bit chaotic—eight? No, a bit more; this number, is it the Ten Blades?”

Lu Bai listened to the screams from below, murmuring softly.

“Ah!”

Four screams rang out almost simultaneously.

Lu Bai didn’t need to turn around to know that the four soldiers arranged by Zhou Zongming had all been taken out.

Only after that series of footsteps entered the fourth floor corridor did he turn out from the corridor.

“Was it poor vigilance? Or some other reason?”

The several corpses in the corridor, judging from their injuries, were clearly not done by the same death fighter.

Lu Bai scratched his head.

For four soldiers to be approached so closely at the same time, it couldn’t be that all those Ten Blades death fighters were assassins skilled in stealth, right?

He stepped over a corpse lying at the edge of the emergency exit door and arrived at the fourth floor corridor.

There were also two nearly cold corpses visible in the corridor; deeper in, intense gunshots were still roaring.

But none of this could attract Lu Bai’s attention.

What shocked him was that he could still hear footsteps, but looking in the direction the sound came from, there wasn’t even a single figure.

Looking carefully, he could notice some irregular fluctuations in that area, similar to the air distortion occasionally seen in heat waves during scorching summer.

The corridor was T-shaped.

Seemingly not noticing Lu Bai, the distorted air writhed and turned into the other side of the corridor.

“Whoa~ Group invisibility, huh.”

Lu Bai smacked his lips but didn’t specially quicken his pace, following unhurriedly behind this group.

……

A playing card flickered with red, yellow, and blue sheen, flying out from a tricky angle straight at the engineer who was fighting one against two.

The speed wasn’t fast—at least much slower than bullets fired from firearms.

And thanks to the conspicuous sheen of this playing card, even in such a chaotic scene, it still wouldn’t be ignored.

Noticing that this playing card’s target was himself, to be safe, this death fighter with the standard engineer appearance decisively shook off the man wearing the black vest in front of him and temporarily retreated backward.

What he didn’t expect was that the tricolor playing card suddenly curved and followed, actually a homing attack?

Even though he had tried his best to zigzag in several directions, that playing card still clung to him like a bone-clinging maggot, tightly following behind.

Pa~

The playing card ultimately hit the target; the entire card turned into three dazzling rays of light and dissipated the instant it struck.

The engineer only felt intense pain from the struck area, followed by a brief loss of consciousness.

[Universal Card (Gold): Throw a playing card, dealing area damage, stunning the target, and recovering a small amount of your own stamina; stun duration depends on target’s resistance.]

This ability was exceptionally powerful, combining attack, sustainability, and control.

Even without any damage effect, just being stunned in battle was self-evidently dangerous.

And indeed, after the engineer fell into a daze, the black vest man followed up closely with a hook punch that heavily smashed into the engineer’s chin.

On the other side.

Xiao Xueyin held an assault rifle picked up from who-knows-where, retreated to outside the corridor, occasionally firing a few bullets inside.

He devoted more of his energy mainly to observing the surrounding situation.

Incidentally, the current situation wasn’t actually that dire.

Although among the Survivor Alliance’s death fighters, Yan Zhiquan’s three high school students were very weak, and there were slackers like Osas and Xiao Xueyin, the others were too strong to compensate.

Whether the engineer or the other lone wolves, they could basically handle one against two.

It wasn’t surprising; choosing to be a lone wolf definitely meant they had something going for them.

Xiao Xueyin saw it clearly: if not for that guy from the Survey Corps side constantly throwing playing cards to control the situation, the battle would probably have ended long ago.

However, the one throwing playing cards probably wasn’t the strongest death fighter on the field…

Clang clang clang!

Through that wall violently dismantled, one could see in the staff department office next door a monster over two and a half meters tall.

Bullets hitting that monster’s body produced dense metallic collision sounds, not even leaving a bullet crater.

Xiao Xueyin had watched with his own eyes as a short person death fighter turned into this appearance in just a few short seconds.

[Pseudo Green Giant (Gold): User loses reason, transforms into an invincible berserk warrior, and will only stop acting after killing all visible creatures in sight.]

The nearly ten soldiers led by Zhou Zongming kept firing, not only failing to harm this monster but instead enraging it.

“Roar!”

The monster threw its head back and let out an angry roar.

Then its muscle-bound legs suddenly exerted force, its body charging like an unstoppable train toward the area with the densest crowd.
