Chapter 48: Zombie Wave (10)
"New entry: The Silverback has incredible defense and insane jumping ability," Ego noted.
"No kidding," Zack muttered, pulling back to a safer altitude. Once he was out of reach, he let loose his full arsenal.
The rotating barrels of his Vulcan machine gun hummed to life, unleashing a hail of bullets. At the same time, the missile pod on his shoulder launched a barrage of micro-missiles. Explosions ripped through the hillside, engulfing the monstrous zombie and a nearby cluster of undead in a massive fireball.
"Ego, scan the area!" Zack barked as the flames roared below.
"There's still activity... one life form detected," Ego replied, its tone edged with concern.
Zack's jaw tightened. He reached back and pulled out his chain sword, the weapon roaring to life as its teeth spun. Ignoring the inferno below, Zack descended through the flames. His war machine's armor made the heat irrelevant.
From the smoldering remains, The Silverback emerged, its skin blackened and peeling away, revealing burned, bloody muscle underneath. The fact that it was still standing was unbelievable.
"You still want more? Fine," Zack growled, landing firmly on the ground and charging toward the monster.
"Left thruster, full power!" he ordered.
