"Get out of here quickly, or you'll be sucked into the tornado!"
Someone suddenly shouted in alarm.
The entire tornado's might grew stronger and stronger, traversing and ravaging the battlefield, seemingly intent on drawing everything into its vortex!
Vast amounts of soil, sand, and zombies were lifted into the air, making the tornado appear even more terrifying and horrifying.
Of course, it wasn't just about being blown away by the wind. The tornado was formed by streaks of energy winds, and these winds acted like countless tiny knives, continuously slicing apart the zombies within.
"Holy cow! As expected of a powerful being, this is like a natural disaster!"
Everyone retreated, staring at the colossal tornado with dread.
Even those far away at the base witnessed the terrifying vortex!
"That's strange, why would a tornado appear in our Anluo City? Could this be a precursor to a volcanic eruption?"
Qi Lianyun and the others looked surprised.
Although there were no more zombies near the base, they were still responsible for guarding it.
"It doesn't look like it. Wang Luo also didn't mention tornadoes appearing before volcanic eruptions!"
Zhao Qingxuan shook her head.
"Could it be a special ability used by Wang Luo?"
Yang Shu speculated.
"We can't really be sure about that. It's hard to say what methods he has, after all, he has so many tricks..."
Yang Shu: ...
On the battlefield,
The tornado dissipated into nothingness after a short while. After all, Wang Luo was only Platinum level. Although the momentum was somewhat terrifying and the lethality was not insignificant, it couldn't last long.
However, almost all the zombies caught in the tornado were wiped out. The power of an S-rank special ability was not to be trifled with!
Not long after,
The entire battlefield was cleared, and all the zombies were annihilated. There were casualties among the awakened individuals, which was unavoidable. However, those who died or were injured were mostly awakened individuals with lower ability levels!
Everyone buried the deceased and then began collecting energy source crystals. Regardless of others, the awakened individuals S-rank and above here had to reach Diamond level as quickly as possible!
This was because the volcanic eruption was scheduled to begin the morning after the day after tomorrow.
Upon returning to the base,
Wang Luo also received 3,650 energy source crystals.
"I need to speed things up. I need to absorb too many energy source crystals, and it takes too much time!"
Each energy source crystal required one minute to absorb, meaning he needed over 60 hours to complete the absorption. Time was running quite short!
Without further hesitation, Wang Luo began to absorb them.
A few days passed quickly, and a sense of oppression permeated the base.
This volcanic eruption was the beginning of a new wave of the apocalypse. They were unsure how long they could endure in this environment.
The zombies in this round might surpass them in level, posing a significant challenge to everyone and casting a shadow over their hearts.
What was most terrifying was the initial eruption. If rocks carrying high temperatures were to fall on the base, it would be a catastrophic disaster. Everyone prayed that such a thing would not happen!
Amidst the silent atmosphere, the ground began to tremble again, signaling to everyone that the volcano was about to erupt.
"Damn it, I really can't figure out how a volcano could appear near our Anluo City."
Zhou Yiming's face was grim.
He had indeed harbored doubts initially, but the tremors this time confirmed that there was indeed a volcano nearby.
BOOM!!!
Suddenly, a few kilometers east of the base, a massive pillar of magma shot up into the sky, lifting the entire mountaintop!
"Holy crap, it actually erupted!"
Huangpu Yu exclaimed, staring at the elevated mountaintop.
The violent magma surged hundreds of meters high, glowing crimson with golden light, making one's scalp tingle!
"This is right next to Anluo City!"
Yang Shu's expression turned serious.
She glanced with concern at Wang Luo, who was sitting on the earth wall absorbing energy source crystals.
Wang Luo glanced at the erupting lava column and continued to absorb energy source crystals. He was uncertain whether rocks would fall towards them. In his past life, many rocks had fallen into the city, but he couldn't recall the exact locations.
The city then was even more desolate than it was now, with hardly any landmarks, so he wasn't entirely sure of the specific spots.
But in this life, the base had expanded significantly, and it might be hit by rocks propelled by the magma.
"However, it seems this volcano isn't ejecting rocks."
Zhao Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief.
But just as the giant fire column lifted the entire mountaintop hundreds of meters into the sky, the entire column suddenly exploded, and scorching magma instantly scattered in all directions, as brilliant as fireworks!
"It's coming!"
Zhou Yiming's eyes narrowed. He saw a burning fireball heading towards the base – it was a fragment of the mountaintop, pushed up by the magma and now splitting apart.
"Can I actually block it!"
Zhou Yiming swallowed.
"Let's do it together!" Yang Chufeng stepped forward, also drawing the Tang blade in his hand.
He had gotten one after seeing Wang Luo use a Tang blade, and he had to admit, it worked quite well in conjunction with his wind abilities!
"Do you need my help?"
Zhou Leng also walked over. Although she disliked being with these men, it wasn't the time to fuss over such things.
"Then let's go together!"
They had never encountered such a situation before, and they all felt uncertain.
This was a destructive natural disaster. In the past, they would have fled from it, but now they had to face it head-on.
Not just them,
Many people gathered around. Yang Shu and Zhao Qingxuan had also arrived.
The earth wall had been improved during this time, becoming thicker and able to accommodate many people. It could now be called a city wall!
WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH!!!
Giant rocks plummeted down, carrying temperatures that could melt everything and the roar of the wind.
As they drew closer,
People saw that they were rocks several zhang in diameter.
Although the stones weren't large, their speed and the disaster they could cause due to their high temperatures were devastating.
"Slash!"
Zhou Yiming and the other two leaped from the city wall simultaneously, slashing at the falling rock.
The three had coordinated their attack.
They all slashed downwards vertically. Zhou Yiming swung his butcher knife, and a golden slash several zhang long shot down fiercely.
At the same time,
Yang Chufeng and Zhou Leng also attacked. A green wind blade and a massive ice blade formed from condensed energy were cleaved downwards!
BOOM!!!
The three powerful energies collided with the speeding rock carrying magma, erupting with a deafening roar.
The giant rock was directly split in half,
But to the horror of the three, the rock, though split in two, did not completely shatter and continued to hurtle towards them.
"This is bad!"
Zhou Yiming and the other two were shocked. They couldn't fly, and their bodies were already falling. They couldn't find a stable footing to attack again.
But at that moment,
Zhao Qingxuan instantly appeared before them, her large hammer held tightly in her hand.
