Chapter 138: Grilled Squid

*BWOOM!!!*

The sky jellyfish let out a violent, low-pitched roar. The transparent bell contracted, and the glass on the skyscrapers shattered in response. The massive roar made the skin of everyone in the convoy tingle, and many felt a sense of oppression, as if they were being intimidated by a giant creature!

“Run! Don’t slow down! Watch out for the track’s electrical towers! Don’t fall behind! Everyone else, fire at that beast!”

Xu Jin shouted, and the Gatling gun on the truck also aimed at the sky.

*BWOOM!!!!!*

Bullets poured out, and countless armed personnel in the convoy also opened their windows and fired at the giant creature in the sky.

*Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat!*

“It’s coming over!”

At this moment, the train and the convoy had already driven onto the elevated highway. On the “Infinity,” Shasha shouted into the walkie-talkie from Car 7.

The sky seemed to be obscured by a huge shadow. The giant sky jellyfish was heading straight for the convoy, and its countless tentacles swept across the tracks.

*Bang!*

An off-road vehicle was unfortunately swept away, smashing through the track’s perimeter wall and plummeting into the street below the viaduct. The overturned car also crushed dozens of zombies!

“Ah!!”

A woman who survived in the back of the off-road vehicle opened the window, crying and trying to escape. In the next moment, a dense crowd of zombies submerged the vehicle. The hand raised in the air for help quickly fell amidst blood-curdling screams.

“Anke! Xiao Wei!”

Shu Qin roared into the walkie-talkie, her eyes red. She gritted her teeth and slammed on the gas pedal. “You bastards, focus your attention!!”

*Thump! Thump! Crash!*

As the sky jellyfish passed over the convoy, countless bullets bombarded its body. Many of the jellyfish’s tentacles and tissues were torn apart, and a rain of gray-white tissue fragments and liquid fell from the sky.

*Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!*

Many vehicles were hit, and some people who couldn’t dodge in time were splashed on their arms and bodies. They immediately began to rot and burn, and screams of pain came from the convoy. The entire convoy’s formation almost fell into disarray.

At 18:45, just as everyone was in peril, the sky… turned dark!

The convoy, already deep in the thick fog, was now plunged into darkness. All the car headlights turned on, illuminating the road ahead.

“Lin Xian, there’s another one ahead!!!!”

Kiki’s voice came through the walkie-talkie at this moment. Lin Xian looked up from the cockpit and saw an even larger one slowly appearing from above a skyscraper!

“We’re definitely doomed if this continues!”

Lin Xian’s expression was grave, as if facing a great enemy. “Kiki, call that fire-breathing kid over here!”

“Oh!”

Hearing Lin Xian’s words, Kiki immediately rushed to the cockpit. At this moment, Lu Xingchen was still huddled in a corner, his eyes lifeless, muttering with a look of despair, “My car… my car…”

“Why are you still squatting here? Disaster is imminent! Come and help me!”

Lu Xingchen looked up at her. “Do you know how important that car is to me? It’s my partner, my home, my hope for the road ahead…”

Kiki’s face immediately darkened. She suppressed the urge to curse and shouted at him, “Stop with the nonsense! Come with me and take out that jellyfish! Then I’ll have Lin Xian give you a whole car to decorate as your boudoir! Satisfied?!”

Unexpectedly, hearing these words, Lu Xingchen suddenly stood up, puffed out his chest, his face full of composure and determination.

“There’s no time to lose. Let’s go now.”

His appearance at this moment was a complete contrast to his previous mournful state, leaving even Kiki stunned.

“Come on, it’s time to show that evil creature my Fire God’s… hey, hey, hey!”

Kiki rolled her eyes, completely unable to tolerate this guy’s self-performance. Before he could finish, she snapped her fingers, grabbed his ear with her telekinesis, and pulled him towards the cockpit.

“Lin Xian, I brought the person.”

Kiki looked anxious as she brought Lu Xingchen into the cockpit. Lin Xian glanced back at Lu Xingchen and then said, “Still able to move?”

Lu Xingchen was a little angry and was about to say something, but then he looked up and saw the giant jellyfish in the distant sky through Lin Xian. His expression immediately became serious. He nodded at Lin Xian. “I can.”

“Good.”

Lin Xian immediately said, “Kiki, you smash all the gasoline we have stored in the back car over there. That guy surnamed Lu, you two coordinate. I want to grill some squid!”

“That’s a jellyfish!”

“Alright!”

Kiki immediately understood Lin Xian’s intention. Without waiting for Lu Xingchen to complain, she immediately turned and rushed to the back compartment.

*Whoosh!*

Lin Xian opened the cockpit door and, with a few clangs, created a steel ladder, allowing Lu Xingchen to walk directly from the car to the roof.

Lu Xingchen looked at Lin Xian’s proficient operation and strange ability with a surprised expression. His face changed slightly, and then he stopped talking nonsense, rolled up his sleeves, and climbed the ladder to the roof.

On the other side, Lin Xian had originally thought Kiki would use her telekinesis to bring the dozen or so barrels of gasoline over. But when he looked, he saw the dozen or so barrels of gasoline flying in the air, while Kiki was excitedly standing on them, occasionally floating up.

*This kid can really fly now.*

Lin Xian had previously guessed that the telekinesis ability had such great potential for expansion that it could be used for flight. After all, she could lift a train weighing hundreds of tons, so how could she not be able to move her own body, which weighed only a few dozen kilograms? It was just a matter of proficiency.

*Whoosh~*

On the high-speed Infinity, Lu Xingchen stood on the roof, and Kiki also floated up from the side of the car, landing on the roof with a slightly nervous expression.

It was her first time flying, and she couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement. But looking at the huge threat in the sky, she had no time to be jubilant. She quickly waved her arms and lifted the dozen or so barrels of gasoline into the air.

“When I throw them up, you shoot fire to detonate them. The bigger the fire, the better!” Kiki said in a clear, crisp voice.

“You don’t need to remind me. Combustion is an art!” Lu Xingchen’s expression was stern. He flexed his fingers as a warm-up.

In the cockpit, Lin Xian picked up the walkie-talkie and said, “Old Mo, I’m going to set that jellyfish on fire. You follow up with a few missiles. Everyone else, don’t fire. Close your windows and watch out for falling fire!”

Hearing Lin Xian’s crazy plan, Shu Qin and Xu Jin were shocked and quickly responded.

“Understood, understood!”

“Everyone, take cover!”

On the other side, Old Mo’s voice was very excited. “Good kid, grilled squid. You’ve really got something.”

As he spoke, he pressed a few buttons on the console with a series of clicks.

“Alright, in that case, let’s use up all the stock. It’s either live or die!”

*Clank! Clank!*

The train was getting closer.

*BWOOOM!!!*

The giant jellyfish in the sky let out a huge, muffled roar, as if it had found its prey. The transparent bell contracted, and it quickly floated towards the train!

“Now!!”

Lin Xian shouted to the roof!

Hearing Lin Xian’s command, Kiki focused, held her breath, and the light of her ability in her eyes flashed wildly. She grabbed the air with both hands, fiercely gathered the dozen or so oil barrels towards the center, and then used all her strength to shoot them towards the sky jellyfish.

*Hum!*

The group of oil barrels carried huge kinetic energy, making a whistling sound in the air.

On the other side, Lu Xingchen stood on the roof of the front car, stomped his feet hard, gritted his teeth, and shot a large amount of fire from his hands, gradually forming a huge fireball in front of him.

In an instant, waves of flames surged, and the light of the fire illuminated the entire street!

“God · Flame Emperor!!”

His pupils trembled, as if he had used all his energy. He fiercely pushed the large fireball towards the sky.

*Buzz, buzz, buzz!*

The huge fireball continuously rose, illuminating the outer windows of the high-rise buildings. Then, it collided with the group of oil barrels thrown towards the center of the jellyfish!

*BOOM!!!*

In an instant, a scorching giant fireball exploded, the flames soaring into the sky. The gasoline ignited by the explosion further intensified the fire in a jet-like manner.

A huge fireball burned in the sky, as if the great fire was going to burn through the heavens. It instantly engulfed half of the sky jellyfish’s huge body.

A great fire burned the sky!

The shockwave from the explosion came, and the rushing convoy below immediately felt their vehicles shake, and a wave of heat washed over them.
