Infinite people, start speedrunning

Chapter 76 Takeoff from Wuhu!

"Destroy as much air defense equipment as possible within the military base to ensure that the military base is destroyed by the beast tide before other military support arrives."

This was an order given by Chu Xuan, which Zheng Zha found somewhat puzzling.

Is it to ensure that the vehicles they stole can take off smoothly?

It's unclear, but since the other party is going to kill his mold, Zheng Zha doesn't intend to be polite to them.

Maintaining his explosive state, Zheng Zha unleashed the lightness technique from the Twelve-Road Tan Leg style. Although he was still not proficient, his speed had reached a terrifying level.

They are small in size, fast in speed, and their body surface defense even surpasses that of monsters.

For mold, Zheng Zha is much more difficult to deal with than for giant beasts!
With the terrain map provided by Zhan Lan, he transformed into a blur, moving as if he were in an empty field, carrying out Chu Xuan's orders amidst the chaos.

Zheng Zha transformed into the symbiote [Six-Armed Overlord], with each of its four tentacles wielding a machine gun, firing at the [cannon-like object] in its field of vision.

The Gauss rifle has a long range, extremely high accuracy, and its destructive power goes without saying.

Even though Zheng Zha's marksmanship wasn't great, he managed to wipe out all the targets in the area within minutes.

Of course, this is also related to the increasingly fierce attacks of the monsters, which have rendered the military base unable to function properly.

In short, the significant deprivation of anti-air capabilities means that... the flying dragons in the sky will become even more rampant!
"Isn't this a bit too simplistic? Are these molds really that vulnerable?"

A few doubts arose in Zheng Zha's mind.

This is a heavily fortified military base. With its modern military equipment, wouldn't it have prepared for the beast tide in advance?

Surely intercepting and bombing with fighter jets in advance shouldn't be a problem?

Until he glimpsed a moldy creature not wearing a gas mask, with bloodshot eyes, spewing black smoke, and firing a gun at his teammates...

Zheng Zha realized that the military base had not simply fallen to the savage onslaught of monsters.

Before the beast tide arrived, this place had already been ravaged by the "Dragon Disease," and a considerable number of fungi had lost their minds, making their organized defenses inadequate.

The mad dragon disease is truly terrifying!
With a sigh to himself, Zheng Zha thought that the main task had been completed, and that Zhan Lan and Chu Xuan had no intention of requesting reinforcements.

Then proceed with the original plan and go check on the newcomers.

With that in mind, Zheng Zha followed Zhan Lan's instructions and headed towards Jiangyin and the location of the trio.

"Can you drive this car? Are you old enough to get a driver's license?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Li Shuaixi actually questioned Luo Gandao's driving skills.

"How about I drive? I have a driver's license."

Luo Gandao said he wanted to roar!
"Just watch it!"

After getting familiar with the driver's seat for a while, Luo Gandao basically mastered how to use this military jeep.

Just do this, then that, and then step on the gas!

"Buzz~"

The roar of the engine made Li Shuaixi shut his mouth and fasten his seatbelt—even though it didn't really help.

Is this guy really a normal high school student? How can he have a "launch start"?!

The car accelerated incredibly fast, as if it had been launched by a booster!
In that instant, Li Shuaixi felt a strong push in his back. He saw the speedometer on the car's dashboard rapidly increasing, quickly surpassing the 130 km/h mark.

It's even improving!

Is that right? A Jeep isn't a sports car; it can't go fast, can it?
Li Shuaixi had no idea, but in any case, Luo Gandao was very skilled at driving this military jeep.

He couldn't see Luo Gandao's expression beneath the mask, but his intuition told him that Luo Gandao seemed relaxed... and not even excited.

With the Anjanath almost in front of him, Li Shuaixi couldn't help but shout, "It's going to crash! It's going to crash!"

However, with a beautiful drift and a fishtail, the jeep came to a precise stop at the feet of the Anjanath.

"Sister Zhan Lan! Brother Jie! Get in the car quickly!"

"You're not bad, kid!"

Hidden in a dark corner, Zhang Jie laughed loudly and sat down in the back seat.

Zhan Lan, who was standing nearby, followed suit and joked:
"You weren't scared when I suddenly notified you with a mind chain; you're quite calm." Luo Gandao could only respond with a chuckle.

His first thought was to make a quick getaway, but unfortunately, he underestimated the surveillance capabilities of the seasoned veterans.

In that case, if one wants to survive, one has no choice but to demonstrate one's value.

That explains why Luo Gandao just deliberately showed off his driving skills.

To demonstrate his loyalty, Luo Gandao restarted the train and asked proactively:

"Where are Colonel Chu and Brother Fang? Should we go pick them up?"

Zhan Lan didn't speak. She had to switch the objects linked by the mental chains repeatedly in a short period of time, which was a very mentally taxing task.

Zhang Jie replied, "No need, the captain and Jin Xi are working as dragon knights. Chu Xuan took Ming Yanwei and Qi Teng to the core area to steal [intelligence]."

"We just need to continue with our mission of stealing planes and drawing the attention of the mold and monsters."

Li Shuaixi suddenly interjected, "Do you know where the helipad is? If you keep going, you'll be right at the cafeteria!"

“Do you know if I don’t know?” Roger retorted impatiently.

Unexpectedly, Li Shuaixi continued, "Of course I know! I've seen the introduction to this military base in real life... You should turn left at the next intersection!"

"Then why didn't you say so sooner! Why didn't you say so sooner!" Luo Gandao felt like his blood vessels were about to burst, and he steered the jeep to the left.

"That's a dead end! We need to turn the next corner!"

"Holy crap! Why don't you drive it!"

"boom!"

The Anjanath that had been escorting the jeep suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Startled and enraged, Luo Gandao jerked the steering wheel, narrowly avoiding the impact. He urgently said:
"What happened! Why did our dragon collapse?"

[Defeat Anjanath to obtain 1 D-rank side quest and 1500 reward points]

"It's too badly injured! Be quiet! I'll play with another one!"

Upon receiving the notification from the main god, Zhan Lan cursed the main god for being stingy and gestured for Luo Gandao to shut up. Then she asked:
"Do you dare ride a dragon? The flying kind?"

"I wouldn't dare." Although Luo Gandao was an unlicensed driver, riding a flying dragon was still a bit beyond his acceptable range.

The main concern is that once it takes off, it will become a target for anti-aircraft guns? That would be too dangerous!

"I dare." Li Shuaixi was very excited upon hearing this.

"...Keep this speed, we'll take off soon." Zhan Lan thought these two were just hilarious.

Thinking of Fang Ge's previous request.

The clever woman chose a compromise.

? ?
Luo Gandao felt as if the jeep had suddenly been placed under a huge shadow.

Then...

"Oh!"

The sharp claws pierced through the roof, and the jeep was instantly lifted off the ground!

"Hey!" Luo Gandao was startled. He looked at the sharp claws that were right in front of him, with purple liquid dripping from them.

"Take off from Wuhu!"

After the initial excitement, Li Shuaixi asked curiously, "What is this purple thing?"

As he spoke, he seemed to reach out and touch it.

"That's poisonous, don't touch it!"

Zhan Lan warned sternly, "I will control the fire dragon to take us to the helipad. I hope you really know how to fly a plane!"
