Chapter 480: Teamwork
Then, Jin Xuyan turned to Fu Guai and said, "Ah Fu, I need you to copy Old Qin’s tornado later."
Fu Guai nodded and made an "OK" sign.
"Old Wei, make sure that no zombie rats escape," Jin Xuyan said before he leaped from the rooftop and dashed toward the open field.
Seeing this, Qin Luzi followed after him. When they were ten meters away from the zombie rats, he waved his hand and the wind grew stronger. Soon after, tornadoes formed and swept away the zombie rats.
Jin Xuyan raised his hand, and several huge black fireballs flew toward the tornadoes.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The fireballs exploded upon contact with the tornadoes. In less than a second, the black fire merged with the tornadoes under Jin Xuyan’s control.
To make sure that no zombie rats were able to reach his Captain’s location, Qin Luzi created a wind barrier around Jin Xuyan. Floating above the zombie rats, he snapped his fingers and manipulated the atoms in the air.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Explosions were heard one after another, killing group after group of zombie rats. Unlike zombies, zombified animals were not picky.
The moment the nearby zombie rats were killed, the surrounding zombie rats would pounce on the carcasses and eat them clean, leaving nothing but rancid stench and black blood on the ground.
Seeing this, Qin Luzi frowned in disgust. While he held back his urge to vomit, Jin Xuyan already combined the tornadoes into one massive tornado.
As the fire tornado swept through the zombie rats, it burned those blocking its path into ashes. Those swept into the tornado were torn apart before being burned into ashes.
While this attack was effective, it consumed a lot of energy. What was more, the zombie rats were not as stupid as low-level zombies. The moment half of them were turned into ashes, the rest of the zombie rats started to retreat.
Their survival instinct made them fear the fire tornado and warned them to escape.
Standing on the rooftop, Wei Ying saw this and said, "Block the hole! Do not let the zombie rats escape!"
"Understood!"
Following his order, several metal- and earth-type ability-users created a metal wall and an earth wall to block the zombie rats’ escape route. With the hole blocked, the zombie rats had nowhere to go.
"Captain, there are some rats still inside the hole. If we block the hole, we will not be able to kill them all," one of his members said.
"Right now, we can only focus on the larger number. We will take care of the rest later," Wei Ying said.
Since the Captain had already made the decision, the members nodded and followed his order. As for Yin Yusheng and Fu Guai, the two of them exchanged glances before they leaped from the rooftop and went to the area where the zombie rats were escaping.
Before they arrived in the area, Fu Guai had already waved his hand, and several tornadoes appeared in front of the hole, blocking the rats from escaping. At the same time, smaller tornadoes went into the underground tunnels and swept the zombie rats inside.
Boom! Boom!
Ten minutes later, the ground shook, and several tornadoes burst out from underground, throwing the zombie rats into the air. With several underground tunnels blocked by his tornadoes, the zombie rats could only run toward the newly opened holes.
As soon as the rats came out of the holes, several black fireballs flew toward their locations.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
With the black fireballs merged with the smaller tornadoes, Jin Xuyan flicked his wrist, and the tornadoes turned into flame towers that shot into the holes, burning the rest of the zombie rats hiding inside.
Standing on the rooftop in the distance, the members of the Eagle Team were stunned. They looked at the battle with astonishment, and one of them said, "Captain, I never expected the Phantom Team’s members to be this powerful."
"According to their current strength, they must have broken through to level one. As for Captain Jin, he should be at least a level three ability-user," Xiao Han said after observing for a while.
"Level one? Vice Captain, I have met several level one ability-users, but none of them had destructive power equal to the members of the Phantom Team," the member said with doubt.
After he said this, Wei Ying explained, "The difference is not the level, but the amount of their ability’s energy and also their battle experience. Most people would choose to fight alone when they awaken their abilities."
"Even if they join a team and have good teamwork, they will not find a way to maximize their attack power by combining their abilities at all."
"All of you can learn from the Phantom Team and find ways to combine your attack skills. This way, we can increase the attack power while consuming less energy. It will be very beneficial during prolonged battle situations," he added.
Hearing this, the Eagle Team members recalled their situation during their last mission and nodded. If not for their arrogance and lack of tacit understanding, they would not have been trapped by the mutant plants, and their comrades would not have died tragically.
If not for the Phantom Team, they might have become fertilizer for that mutant plant. Thinking about this, they realized they still had not thanked them properly.
Not knowing that the Eagle Team was discussing them, Jin Xuyan was going on a rampage while Qin Luzi constantly checked his map.
"Captain, a group of zombie rats is escaping through the tunnel located at the northeast," he said.
"Fu Guai!"
Hearing his name, Fu Guai dashed toward the northeast tunnel and slammed his palm on the ground. The next moment, a thick layer of ice wall blocked the tunnel.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Sounds of the zombie rats slamming against the ice wall echoed in the tunnel.
Narrowing his eyes, Fu Guai clenched his fist, and the ice wall turned into countless ice needles that pierced the zombie rats.
Stab! Stab! Stab!
