Chapter 379 Going to Rescue People
Just as Zhou Siyun was about to commit suicide, a ball of light suddenly crashed down, causing the ground to tremble violently. The three dark races all turned to look at the spot where the ball had struck, but found nothing there. When they turned back, they were horrified to discover that Zhou Siyun, who had just been critically injured and on the verge of death, had vanished.
Meanwhile, in the command vehicle in the distance, Li Chenglong carried the seriously injured Zhou Siyun and gently placed her on the bed in the living area behind the command vehicle. He then took out a crystal recovery potion, a super potion, and psionic honey for her to take. Afterward, he took out an IV drip and infusion tube from his psionic space, disinfected them, and skillfully inserted an IV line.
Looking at Zhou Siyun, who was beginning to recover, Li Chenglong said, "I don't have any healing skills, and I arrived at lightning speed without any preparation, so this is the only way I can handle it. But you're alright now, so get some rest. I'm going to avenge you and the Northwest War Zone." Zhou Siyun was so moved that she shed tears. Because her injuries were too severe, she could barely speak and could only nod in response.
Li Chenglong walked out, locked the isolation door between the living area and the combat area, and then slowly got out of the car. Meanwhile, the three dark races had already tracked them down. He glanced around and saw two level 12 and one late-stage level 11; no wonder Zhou Siyun was no match for them.
The three stood together, staring intently at Li Chenglong approaching from a distance. Gattuso, the werewolf, said, "Judging from the aura this Chinese man is exuding, he should also be a level 12 ability user." Simmons, the vampire, chuckled, "Who cares what he is? Just a level 12 ability user. We can easily beat him. But our opponent is a man, so let's finish this quickly."
Li Chenglong stared curiously at the mid-level 12 vampire and asked, "Isn't it said that vampires can't be in the sunlight? How can you move around?" Simmons struck what he considered a very gentlemanly pose and said, "Once we reach level 11, we won't be afraid of the sunlight at all. Also, why should I answer your question? Chinese man, prepare to die."
As he spoke, Simmons transformed into a blood-red shadow and charged towards Li Chenglong. Gattuso, the werewolf, transformed from human form into werewolf form and charged forward with a long howl. The only orc wielding a weapon, Worthy, followed closely behind, carrying a massive two-handed sword.
Not wanting to waste time, Li Chenglong shouted, "Holy Dragon Blood, Level 2 Burst!" Instantly, a tremendous aura emanated from him, transforming into a gust of wind that whipped up a sandstorm. The vampire marquis immediately slowed down, a look of confusion appearing on his pale face.
"Dimensional Slash!" As Li Chenglong unleashed his attack, the orc Worthy's massive head flew off, and foul-smelling blood gushed out like a fountain. Then, the orc's headless corpse crashed heavily to the ground, clearly dead beyond any doubt.
Then he used dimensional teleportation to appear in front of Gattuso in his werewolf form and unleashed a full-force attack: "Dragon Fist Burst!" A deafening dragon roar resounded, and a golden dragon burst forth from the werewolf's back, soaring straight into the sky.
Gattuso, the werewolf, stared wide-eyed in disbelief, clutching the gaping hole in his chest with both hands. His mouth opened and closed as if he wanted to say something, but a few seconds later he too collapsed stiffly.
Having killed a level 12 werewolf and a level 11 late-stage orc in less than thirty seconds, Vampire Marquis Simmons was terrified by this scene. However, the proud nature of the vampire race would not allow him to kneel and beg for mercy from a mere Chinese. With that thought, he transformed into a streak of blood-red light and flew away into the distance.
This is a unique ability possessed by vampires of level 10 or higher. By consuming their own energy and life essence for a short period, they can fly fifty kilometers in a minute. Of course, the cost is enormous; not only is their lifespan shortened, but their overall condition also ages considerably. After using this ability, Marquis Simmons, who previously appeared to be in his twenties, now looks at least forty.
Simmons stopped on the rooftop of an abandoned building, panting, and said, "Damn Chinese, they deserve to die! They forced me to use this move, it's an utter disgrace! When I get back to headquarters, I will definitely tell Duke Nans to avenge me!"
"Oh? So you have a duke among your rank this time?" Li Chenglong's voice came from behind him. Although his voice sounded cheerful and sunny, to Simmons at this moment it was like the devil's whisper, a death knell tolling.
Simmons turned around shakily: "You, you, you, how did you catch up with me? This is impossible, it doesn't make sense!" Li Chenglong chuckled: "You think you can shake me off with your little tricks? Dream on."
Having witnessed Li Chenglong's astonishing abilities, Simmons lost all will to fight and only wanted to escape. He muttered incantations and instantly transformed into a bat, flying away into the distance. Li Chenglong didn't give chase, pointing his right hand at the departing bat: "Dimensional Transformation!"
The bat, which had flown far away, suddenly appeared in front of Li Chenglong. "Holy Dragon Radiant Slash!" Wielding the Emperor Sword, Li Chenglong unleashed a strike, cleaving the giant bat in two from head to toe, utterly dead. Li Chenglong crouched down and searched carefully, only to discover that the Dark Race had no crystals, much to his disappointment. After wiping the Emperor Sword clean with a towel, he used dimensional travel to leave the area.
Half an hour later, 40 special forces soldiers arrived near the command vehicle aboard the Dawn. They had originally planned to land near Wang Ruyan's base, but Li Chenglong contacted them and told them to land at the command vehicle. During this time, Li Chenglong changed Zhou Siyun's IV fluids.
The contents of this IV drip are a dozen or so psionic plants that grew in Li Chenglong and Yunlan's psionic space. After two rounds of extraction, they were blended to create a highly effective healing solution. It can be taken orally or injected intravenously, but intravenous injection will accelerate its effects significantly. These psionic plants originated from seeds that Cecily gave to Li Chenglong before she left. Later, through research by Li Chenglong and the Dawn City Research Department, this medicine was finally developed.
After the entire special forces team disembarked from the spaceship, members of the Second Special Mission Support Section piloted the Dawn back to Dawn City. Yang Liu and another level 11 wood-type ability user, Zhang Yan, treated Zhou Siyun, who had almost fully recovered. Li Chenglong, along with the other special forces members, spent the time outside, providing an initial account of what he had observed from the air.
After a while, Zhou Siyun, having showered and changed into clean clothes, got off the command vehicle with Yang Liu's help. Although her injuries had healed, the battle had taken a heavy toll on her, and she would be weak for a few days. Zhou Siyun held Li Chenglong's hand and thanked him repeatedly, crying with emotion as she spoke. Li Chenglong comforted her for a while, then had Yang Liu help her to the living quarters in the command vehicle to rest. The others also got into the command vehicle and headed towards the nearest large base.
Li Chenglong used the communicator on his command vehicle to contact General Aizimaiti, commander of the Northwest Theater Command, and Chen Guoqiang, commander of the Yanjing headquarters, explaining the situation to them. Upon hearing that Li Chenglong had rescued Zhou Siyun, General Aizimaiti repeatedly thanked him and expressed his sincere gratitude for Li Chenglong's support.
An hour later, the group arrived at the Xining Base, one of the three major bases in the Northwest Theater Command. The Northwest Theater Command is responsible for Xinjiang, Qinghai, Ningxia, and a part of western Inner Mongolia. After the apocalypse, due to the vast area and relatively small population, only three large bases and a dozen or so medium and small bases were eventually formed.
Upon learning of Li Chenglong's arrival, Wu Jianfeng, the head of the Xining base, led relevant department heads and key military officers to welcome him. Even ethnic minority girls presented him with a hada (a ceremonial scarf). After a friendly exchange, they entered the main building. Wu Jianfeng explained that General Aizimaiti would arrive at the base early the next morning to set up defenses and meet with Li Chenglong.
Lunch was quite plentiful because there weren't as many zombies here, and the apocalyptic disaster wasn't as severe, so much of our production and daily life continued.
