The Plane War Begins from Wandering Earth

Chapter 403 402. The Disaster-Stricken Citizens of New York

The more Xingyun thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Considering the zombie virus raging in the 2149 universe, this thing that can infect so many superheroes is obviously extremely dangerous.

Once it appears in the universe on the other side of the portal, it will inevitably cause a terrible catastrophic event.

For the people in the 2149 universe, the threat they face is not from Thanos at all.

It's this damn zombie virus.

No matter how cruel Thanos was, he at least promised to only destroy half of the population in the universe.

But this zombie virus leaves no room for bargaining.

Once infected, one will become a "living dead" with no self-awareness and can only act based on survival instinct.

But even so, Nebula decided to take the risk and tell the survivors of Universe 2149 that she came from another universe outside the portal.

Because she didn't want to stay in this world plagued by the living dead any longer.

As for the natives of the 2149 universe, will they bring the zombie virus with them when they go to their own universe?

Xingyun didn’t know and couldn’t care less.

She is not a person with a spirit of selfless dedication, nor is she a saint who can easily resonate with people who have no interest in her.

Nebula was not sure whether guiding the spread of the zombie virus was a conspiracy of Observer Otto.

But what she was sure of was that if she continued to stay in the 2149 universe, she would definitely not have a good ending.

What's more, in her opinion, these are the survivors of the 2149 universe who were able to survive the ravages of the zombie virus.

Since they survived, it must mean that they are immune to these viruses.

Otherwise, why didn’t I get infected after coming into contact with them?

It seems that even if these survivors go to the universe where they were born, there will most likely be no problems.

Xingyun was still convincing herself in her heart.

On the other side, the superhero survivors of the human civilization on Earth in Universe 2149 on the aerospace mothership have begun preparations for "migration".

There is no "endless energy" technology on this aerospace carrier.

Being able to maintain its suspended state for a long time after the zombie virus spread, its anti-gravity engine has consumed too much energy.

If Nebula hadn't brought this good news, the survivors on the aerospace carrier would probably have to fend for themselves soon.

Collect all research data related to the zombie virus, as well as virus specimens of various stages and characteristics.

Led by S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Nick Fury, the survivors flew towards downtown New York in a helicopter.

The survivors on the aerospace carrier never relaxed their observation of downtown New York.

They monitor the urban area through surveillance cameras that are still powered by backup energy in the city.

This is not only because New York is the nearest giant human city to them, but also because it has all the food, water and other survival supplies they need.

There are also many key laboratory equipment for studying viruses.

More importantly, it was once the base of the Avengers.

There are still many infected superheroes in this city.

The living dead Captain America, the living dead Iron Man, the living dead Hulk, the living dead Winter Soldier...

After being attacked by the zombie virus, these superheroes have lost their self-awareness and become killing machines driven by flesh and blood.

The most terrifying thing is that these zombie superheroes still have very strong fighting instincts and can use various weapons and equipment to fight.

The survivors on the aerospace carrier had to strictly monitor the New York city area.

Make sure you don't get threatened by the living dead superheroes.

Fortunately, the appearance of the nebula did not cause much commotion in downtown New York.

When she was rescued by Spider-Man, Black Widow and others and left New York City.

The entire city center was surging with zombies, but soon it returned to deathly silence.

According to the analysis of the survivors, these zombies controlled by the virus, the living dead, have no flesh and blood to replenish their energy.

They will reduce the frequency of their activities as much as possible to reduce their own consumption, which may allow them to survive longer.

The same goes for the living dead superheroes.

After Nebula disappeared, these zombie superheroes also disappeared.

Lurking in a dark corner of downtown New York.

Until flesh and blood that can be used as "reserve energy" appears again, they will be activated instantly as if a switch was pressed, bursting out with the most bloodthirsty and violent fighting posture.

As for the "space portal" that was suspended above downtown New York, more than ten meters above the ground.

Ordinary zombies transformed from ordinary humans cannot touch it at all.

And those zombie superheroes seemed to have no interest in this object that had no trace of human flesh and blood.

It just floats quietly above the city center square.

After repeatedly confirming the area around the portal, there were no zombie superheroes within the surveillance range. There were only ordinary human zombies wandering around the square aimlessly and in a daze.

Nick Fury, director of SHIELD, immediately gave the order and began action.

In order to cover everyone's actions, the aerospace mothership, whose energy reserves were close to the warning line, descended in altitude.

An indiscriminate attack was launched on the areas surrounding New York City.

The roar of missiles and artillery fire was endless.

This is even more evident in the city streets filled with zombies.

Attracted by the sound and light effects of the artillery fire, the zombies hiding in the high-rise buildings in the city kept rushing towards the direction of the noisy artillery fire.

Suddenly, the scattered groups of corpses in the city center square became even more sparse.

Not only that, as the helicopter carrying the survivors descended.

The aerospace mothership, which was controlled by an intelligent program, eventually crashed to the ground due to the depletion of its energy reserves.

The loud explosion, accompanied by the slowly rising mushroom cloud, attracted the zombies from most of New York City.

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, the helicopter quickly drove towards the city center square at high speed under Nick Fury's loud command.

The intense feeling of weightlessness made many survivors in the cabin dizzy.

Thanks to the mechanical modifications to her body, Nebula did not show any obvious discomfort.

She watched with her own eyes as the sesame-sized figure on the ground outside the porthole grew rapidly in size at a speed visible to the naked eye.

What finally appeared before him were hideous-looking zombies of the living dead.

The rotor helicopter landed heavily, and after the hatch opened, a large number of zombies stranded in the square surrounded it.

The Black Panther, who rushed out of the hatch first, tore apart more than a dozen zombies closest to him in an instant with lightning speed.

The semi-solidified black blood spread all over the ground like an explosion.

Immediately afterwards, Black Widow, Hawkeye and others began to use the weapons in their hands to sweep away the zombies that were surrounding them.

Under Nick Fury's instructions, Spider-Man packed and dragged boxes of precious and dangerous zombie virus specimens, research data and other high-value information out of the cabin.

To the surviving Avengers, the hundreds of zombies stranded in the square were not a threat at all.

Everyone dealt with them easily as if they were shooting at a target range.

But even so, no one let down their guard.

Because no one knows whether those zombie superheroes have attracted their attention.

It turned out that their caution was not without reason. With a roar that shook the sky above the square, the living dead Hulk, who had transformed into a giant, rushed out of a building near the square.

The gray skin's defense power is just as strong as the green one before being infected.

In his memory, he still remembered being teased by the helicopter not long ago.

Therefore, the moment he saw the rotor helicopter, he transformed into combat form.

"Hurry! Hurry!"

Nick Fury's face changed. What he feared most was being stuck by those zombie superheroes.

It’s not that the opponent’s fighting power is strong enough to crush a group of survivor superheroes.

But the other party is really a "rogue".

Even if the living dead superheroes have their limbs broken or half of their bodies blown off in battle, these are all "non-fatal injuries" for them in the "living dead" state.

In contrast, the survivor Avengers members will suffer wounds on their bodies once they fight against the zombie superheroes.

There is a high probability that you will be infected by the excessive zombie virus carried by the other person's body, and eventually become a member of the "army of the living dead".

This is also the most troublesome problem for survivors.

It's not that they are afraid of death, but the number of enemies increasing as they fight is indeed a hopeless thing.

Large quantities of zombie virus samples and research materials filled hundreds of suitcases.

These suitcases greatly reduced the survivors' ability to move.

But they cannot give up these research data and samples.

Because the key to saving the 2149 universe and eliminating the zombie virus may lie in these precious research materials.

In order to cover everyone's evacuation to the portal in the air, Black Panther took the initiative to rush towards the living dead Hulk.

The two sides immediately started fighting.

The living dead Hulk, who had an absolute advantage in strength, suppressed Black Panther almost the entire time.

The wounds caused by Black Panther's claws on the opponent are almost insignificant to the living dead Hulk.

But Black Panther must always be careful to deal with the heavy punches from the living dead Hulk.

His body doesn't have as strong tolerance for mistakes as the other party.

After everyone entered the portal, the Black Panther, which was already injured in many places, did not dare to stay. It quickly "catapulted" into the air and jumped into the portal.

The angry living dead Hulk once again felt that he was being fooled.

In its combat form, it has no rationality at all, not to mention that now that it is in the state of a living dead, it is driven entirely by its survival instinct.

Without any hesitation, the living dead Hulk jumped up on the spot and rushed towards the portal.

The battle in the city center square was fierce and short.

After just a few minutes, silence returned to the scene.

All that was left were corpses of zombies scattered all over the ground, destroyed buildings everywhere, and a rotor helicopter that had stopped working.

Not long after, several figures slowly walked towards the dark street corner.

Leading the group was Doctor Strange, whose face looked like a skeleton and whose body looked like a mummy.

The living dead Doctor Strange stared at the portal in the air in the square.

The zombie Captain America and the zombie Iron Man were still attacking the helicopter.

In no time at all, the aircraft was disassembled into parts.

"roar~"

But with a roar from the zombie Doctor Strange, the zombie Iron Man and the zombie Captain America stopped what they were doing.

He also set his sights on the portal in the air.

On the other side, in the Marvel main universe numbered 616, Times Square, New York.

Following an explosion in the sky, a portal that distorted light appeared above the square.

The indigenous people who were shopping nearby were amazed and picked up their mobile phones to upload this strange scene to the Internet.

But for New Yorkers who are used to the ups and downs of life, this is not a big deal.

Many people even think that this is a publicity stunt by a certain business.

Until NYPD police cars began to appear in the square and drove away the onlookers.

But the more this happened, the more reluctant the onlookers were to leave.

Gossiping and eating melons seems to be a heritage engraved in the genes of all human beings.

However, opposing authority, questioning officialdom, and being individualistic are traits that New Yorkers cannot change.

Soon, NYPD officers were engaged in a heated argument with onlookers.

The portal in the air shone brightly, and a series of figures emerged from it.

"Shit! Who did I see?!

Nick Fury!

This damn corrupt criminal actually escaped from prison?!"

“Black Widow?!
Wasn't it officially reported that she died in the Chitauri invasion?"

“And Hawkeye!
For God's sake, haven't these guys been promoted as martyrs?

Could it be that the authorities have been deceiving us all along? "

The survivors of the Avengers from the 2149 universe confused and angered the citizens of New York in the main universe.

Given their past experiences, they have already imagined that they have been deceived by the official propaganda system.

He ignored the angry questions and shouts from the onlookers.

The NYPD military police were also confused for a moment.

"Quickly open!"

"Don't watch here!"

The surviving Avengers members who had just passed through the portal and arrived in another universe were still calling on the surrounding onlookers to evacuate.

Nick Fury, who was scolded as a "corrupt criminal", "jailbreaker" and "liar" by the onlookers, and the Black Widow and others were still a little confused.

A roar that shook the earth and sky came from the air behind him.

The living dead Hulk also chased after him.

The angry Hulk finally brought the onlookers back to their senses.

This is not because the green on the opponent's body turned gray, but because the Hulk is in an angry state. The citizens of New York are too aware of his destructive power.

By the time the news that a suspected Hulk clone was wreaking havoc in New York City reached the transitional government, half an hour had passed.

Portal, suspected Avengers members from another dimension, strange viruses, the other party requested a conversation at the highest level...

A series of problems arise before the transitional government.

The matter was reported to the coalition government without waiting for a response on how to deal with it.

A new trouble has arisen.

The strange virus from the alternate universe seemed to have broken out on a large scale in the New York metropolitan area.
