In the dark underground base, it did not turn quiet due to the few of them temporarily resting. If the monitoring system at the base was still working, it would have discovered that a fierce battle was taking place in the A6 area.
The firelight from the machine guns illuminated some of the buildings in the area. The occasional high-energy grenade exploded and released orange flames, brightening the area as bright as day. However, whether it was bullets or grenades, they were unable to stop them.
A large number of living corpses surged out from the buildings in the residential area, from the garage, from any place they could hide. They were like a group of blood-sucking mosquitoes, and Rankin’s Blunderbuss were the most delicious blood. There were also a few zombies with guns, using the remaining machine guns in their hands to fire back at the team. In this kind of confrontation, as long as the head wasn’t injured, the zombies would not die. Moreover, the number of zombie shooters was far higher than the Blasting Squad.
Thus, after a few rounds, two soldiers from the Blasting Squadron were shot and killed.
As the living corpses closed in on the shops where the Blasters had turned them into trenches, Rankin let out a roar, and yellow flames sprayed from his eyes. At the same time, a nearby six-storey building suddenly shook violently, and with a bang, it shattered. Nearly a ton of rubble and countless steel bars crashed down, landing right in the middle of the group of corpses.
Instantly, countless living corpses were smashed into mincemeat. The ground shook for nearly a minute, and in front of the shop was a barricade of earth, burying nearly two hundred living corpses.
Rankin gasped.
Because of the environment of the underground base, Rankin’s earth element ability was greatly reduced. If it was on the surface, in the endless earth, Lanken could kill a large number of living corpses as long as he summoned them. However, right now, he was in an underground base, and the amount of earth elemental energy he had was too little. Thus, he could only use elemental vibrations to cause tremors in the concrete buildings nearby. Eventually, the buildings collapsed and the enemy was crushed to death.
