Chapter 27 Outbreak
Yang Guizhou clicked his tongue in annoyance, wiped the bloodstains off his cheek with his thumb, and the remaining ice crystals on the wound melted into water, giving him goosebumps.
"Damn it, I can't even tell if we're on the same side." Yang Guizhou spat out a mouthful of blood, his whole body aching terribly. His forehead was covered in sweat, and his clothes, soaked by Gabriel's superpower, clung uncomfortably to his body.
Gabriel nimbly dodged the combined attack of Chu Deng and Xing Chen. He sensed that Yang Guizhou was running out of steam and, with the idea of taking care of one of them at a time, he endured Chu Deng's flames and used the water droplets on Yang Guizhou's body to deliver a fatal blow.
"Cough—!" Gabriel was struck in the chest by Chu Deng's palm, suffering severe burns to his internal organs and his skin turning completely black. Starry Sky's ice arrows usually melted as they approached him, but this time they struck the distracted Gabriel directly, one of them piercing his left shoulder.
Gabriel pulled out the ice arrow, used water to suppress the burning sensation, and used his supernatural ability to accelerate his cell regeneration.
"what!"
The horrific screams, accompanied by a series of splattering sounds as flesh and blood were pierced, sent chills down one's spine.
Chu Deng turned around abruptly and saw a purple electric dragon roaring towards her, grazing her hair and striking Gabriel standing behind her. The powerful electric dragon was Yang Guizhou's last-ditch effort and did not cause serious damage. Water flowed from Gabriel's fingertips, diverting the purple-glowing lightning.
Not far away, the blood that Yang Guizhou had shed formed a small puddle on the ground. Countless ice spikes pierced his body, like a thousand arrows piercing his heart, freezing his life in time.
White specks of light floated out from Yang Guizhou's corpse; the lightning-type ability user had gone offline.
Gabriel smirked as he finally got rid of one of the troublesome problems.
Before he could even admire his masterpiece, Gabriel was kicked away by Chu Deng. Caught off guard, Gabriel managed to grab Chu Deng's combat boots tightly. Seeing this, Xingchen quickly grabbed Chu Deng's arm. Chu Deng kicked Gabriel's head with his other foot, but was surrounded by swirling water droplets. Orange-red flames shot out, but failed to break through the water's barrier, burning silently in the liquid.
Chu Deng's eyes widened as a sharp pain shot through her calves. Her eyes reddened as she stared at Gabriel, who was smiling inexplicably. The water-elemental ability user's golden hair was disheveled, and his emerald eyes held a chilling depth, making one's heart go cold.
Chu Deng roared, "Knife!"
Xingchen gritted his teeth in desperation, and ice particles trembled and slowly formed beside Chu Deng's hand, laboriously but irresistibly coalescing into a razor-sharp ice blade. He gripped Chu Deng's wrist tightly, and Chu Deng fiercely attacked Gabriel, but his attacks were all neutralized by the water-based ability user who was two levels higher.
The fine ice needles were still eroding her calves. Once Gabriel's superpowers invaded her bloodstream, the water in her body would be instantly controlled by a level six water elementalist, leaving her without a complete corpse.
[Glug-glug—]
"You're dead." Gabriel arrogantly pronounced her death sentence; no one could escape once their body's water was controlled by the water element.
"Shut up!" Chu Deng was furious. Gabriel's smile pierced her heart, just like her former enemy.
The water elementalist who killed her teacher, forced her to leave the base, and ultimately met a tragic end on the way.
As she sought revenge for her teacher, the man grabbed her chin and said with a smile, "The strong rule. You can't beat me, so give up. For Liu Li's sake, I'll spare your life and send you out of the base."
To prevent his friends from being implicated, Chu Deng had no choice but to flee far away.
[Glug-glug—]
In his previous life, the weak Chu Deng died at the hands of zombies. After being reborn, Chu Deng honed his superpowers every day and reached the peak of level four fire element at the age of 18, all in order to prevent yesterday from happening again.
She became immersed in the tranquility of reality, and seemed to gradually forget the bloody apocalypse.
But this game stirred up her memories, and she could see traces of the apocalypse everywhere.
Strange plants, strange beasts, and people with superpowers.
There are also secrets that are gradually revealed in reality.
This time, she couldn't help but feel fear.
Has the end times already arrived without us even realizing it?
She just didn't realize it.
[Glug-glug—]
Or perhaps, this life was just a dream she had before dying in the apocalypse. When she woke up, she would see the overwhelming zombies again and close her eyes forever amidst the blood and stench of corpses.
Chu Deng's thoughts were interrupted by the pain in her wrist. She turned around and saw that Xingchen's black eyes were reflecting her disheveled appearance.
The hard frost covered Chu Deng's legs relentlessly, spreading towards her thighs.
Xingchen's lips moved as if she were saying something, but Chu Deng couldn't hear it; her soul could only hear one voice.
[Glug-glug—]
[Glug-glug—]
It was like boiling magma breathing in hell.
……
Chu Deng saw herself reflected in Xingchen's eyes—
It is burning.
The starlight stung his eyes, bringing tears to his eyes. His pale fingers were stained with the color of the flames. The scorching fire was so close to him, it felt as if it would burn him as well. The ice blade he had painstakingly condensed had already melted into a puddle of water before it even took shape, evaporating in the raging fire.
"..." Xingchen finally retreated, staring intently at Chu Deng, who was being engulfed by flames, and withdrew his hand with rapid breathing.
fire……
Fire was everywhere.
The temperature across the entire beach was rising, and the raging fire broke free from its restraints, arrogantly claiming its territory.
Flames kept erupting, raging and burning all living things.
boom--
The spreading flames quickly filled Xingchen and Gabriel's vision, and the two tried to find ways to protect themselves in the flames.
Xingchen kept creating ice shields, while Gabriel put on a water suit. No matter what method they used, they could only withstand the scorching flames for a short while. The two, who were constantly releasing their supernatural abilities, knew that if they ran out of energy and were still not out of the sea of fire, they would die.
Gabriel tried to run, but the stars held him back.
“Let go, I don’t want to stay here and wait to have my account deleted,” Gabriel said coldly.
“You’re dead.” Xingchen retorted directly.
The two engaged in a close-quarters battle. Starry Sky Body Technique was no match for Gabriel, but he only needed to keep Gabriel trapped within the range of the sea of fire.
Gabriel kicked Xingchen in the stomach, but Xingchen dodged by taking a step and trapping Gabriel's leg around his waist. The water droplets from Gabriel's long leg turned into ice spikes, which were blocked by Xingchen's ice shield. The two ices collided, and Xingchen's ice shield was pierced through by Gabriel's ice spikes as easily as paper. With a difference of two levels, Xingchen was no match for him.
He couldn't beat his opponent in physical combat, and his supernatural abilities were also inferior.
Xingchen was beaten until he vomited blood, but he just frowned and preferred to reduce the amount of ice shield that Chu Deng burned rather than let Gabriel leave.
Gabriel showed no mercy, knocking Xingchen down with a raised hand and stepping on the ice-type ability user's chest, his sand-covered shoes leaving dirty marks on Xingchen's body.
Blood seeped from the wound on Xingchen's head, flowing down his face and into his eyes. He coughed up blood from being trampled and lay sprawled on the ground, his hands weakly clutching Gabriel's shoes.
"I'll kill you first."
Gabriel raised his leg high, and Xingchen's hand fell limply to his side...
Just then, the scorching heat seemed to be enraged, continuing to rise, and Gabriel's protective water suit quickly evaporated.
All the flames converged, and Gabriel looked up to see a fire phoenix flying in the sky, like the sun high in the sky, but it fell as he looked up.
The orange-red fiery tail left bright trails as it fell, and the flames burning in the phoenix's eyes were a cold, beautiful blue, as stunning as gemstones.
"call out--"
The fire phoenix's roar was deafening. Gabriel raised his water shield to defend himself, but it was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot or an ant trying to shake a tree. In the blink of an eye, he was swallowed up by the fire phoenix.
Before it could even let out a scream, it was burned to ashes by the black flames inside the fire phoenix.
