Mechanic endlessly amassing troops in the apocalypse

"Are you still going to resist?"

Tang Mucheng didn't reply; her mind was filled with the skills she had just acquired.

Five meters... just get within five meters.

Her eyes were fixed on Tian Kai below.

...We're still a little short; looks like I'll have to create an opening.

Thinking this, he gently pressed his right hand on the hilt of the knife, his thumb against the blade, his whole body like a fully drawn bow, taut and ready to be released.

"Looks like you really don't want to live anymore?" Tian Kai's gloomy gaze swept over her entire body. "What a waste of such a beautiful face."

Before the words were even finished, the translucent spiritual whip tore through the air, emitting a sharp whistle.

This time, Tang Mucheng did not take the blow head-on. She lightly touched the ground with her toes, dodging left and right in the narrow stairwell, her waist bending at an almost unbelievable angle, her long whip grazing her light armor several times, making a piercing sound.

But the stairwell was too narrow.

Snap! Tian Kai seized an opportunity and struck her left arm hard with his whip.

The armor cracked, the skin tore open, and bloodstains appeared immediately.

Tang Mucheng groaned, but used the momentum to spin around and close the distance between them by three steps!

Tian Kai roared, his long whip lashing back, attempting to wrap it around her waist. Just then, in that instant when his old strength was exhausted and new strength had not yet arisen...

It's now!

Clang!

The blade flashed like a white rainbow shooting upwards against the current, sweeping diagonally upwards. The dark, long whip snapped in two, and the blade's energy, undiminished, swiftly slashed at Tian Kai's right shoulder!

"Ugh—!" Blood spurted out as Tian Kai's right arm was severed at the shoulder, and the illusory image of the whip dissipated. He staggered backward, his face deathly pale.

Mei Xicai seemed to wake up at this moment, a trace of hesitation flashed across his face, but he still did not step forward.

Tang Mucheng knew she couldn't give the enemy a chance to breathe. She lightly touched the ground with her blade, leaped forward, and aimed straight for Tian Kai's heart!

In that instant, a shadow suddenly appeared at the corner downstairs.

Its body was extremely large, seemingly filling the entire corridor, and on this mountain of flesh, a bright red name was clearly visible.

[Meat Mountain] LV.21

A level 21 monster!!

Tang Mucheng's pupils dilated in shock; she wanted to finish the battle quickly before the monsters arrived.

But that damned whip gathered again and struck.

She unleashed two more sword strikes.

"Mei Xicai! You're still watching the play? Do you want to die?!"

Tian Kai shouted in a mixture of fear and trepidation.

Mei Xicai gritted his teeth, thinking that if Tian Kai died, everyone would die here once the monster went mad. So he had no choice but to stand in front of him, activate his Stone Skin, and withstand the two sword energies.

Damn it... Seeing the mountain of flesh getting closer and closer, Tang Mucheng had no choice but to retreat temporarily.

The monster arrived in front of Tian Kai at that moment, its enormous body like a small mountain, completely blocking the two of them.

It stood still, seemingly waiting for a command.

Behind him, Tian Kai let out a series of wails.

The massive blood loss caused his health bar to drop continuously, and now it was down to only 60%.

He quickly used his mental powers to stop the bleeding from his arm.

Looking at the severed arm on the ground, his inner rage surged forth.

The reason we didn't use Roshan before was that if it made a move, it would either kill or seriously injure the target.

But I never expected this woman's strength to be so strange.

Not only can it break through in battle, but it also becomes stronger with each battle, which is simply incomprehensible.

At this moment, Tian Kai's lustful thoughts had vanished; all he wanted was to kill the woman in front of him as soon as possible to vent his anger.

"Mountain of Flesh, kill her for me!!"

The order has been issued.

The mountain of flesh moved from stillness to motion with tremendous speed.

Such a large physique, yet possesses such explosive power.

Unable to defeat her, Tang Mucheng made a decision in her mind almost instantly, gritted her teeth, and turned to run without hesitation.

Although this mountain of flesh was moving quite fast, and was even slightly faster than him.

However, its size is too large and the corridors are narrow, making it very difficult to turn.

Back and forth they went, and Tang Mucheng managed to pull ahead of them.

Tang Mucheng soon arrived at the top floor.

She now faces two choices.

First: Hide in the presidential suite. If the door is sturdy enough, it might be able to keep the monster out.

But she rejected the idea as soon as it came to mind.

This is a level 21 monster. No matter how sturdy the door is, it won't be able to stop it. Instead, it will harm the others inside.

So... there's only the second option left.

She looked up at the door to the rooftop, a resolute glint in her eyes.

Without hesitation, they ran up.

We went up to the rooftop.

Tang Mucheng took a deep breath, turned around, and stared firmly at the rooftop door.

The footsteps grew closer.

Tang Mucheng was already mentally prepared.

...Perhaps this is the best outcome. At least it preserves his innocence, which is better than being tortured to death.

As I thought about it, the image of that rough-skinned, handsome young man inexplicably popped into my mind.

If he is...

He quickly shook his head, trying to dispel the dangerous thought.

Li Fei is only level 10. Even if he is here, what can he do against this level 22 monster?

That would actually harm him.

"What I should do most right now is buy Wan'er and the others more time to escape."

As she thought about it, her gaze gradually hardened.

Under their watchful eyes, the monster had already arrived at the entrance to the rooftop.

With a loud crash, the door and the concrete were smashed open.

Under the moonlight, Tang Mucheng finally saw the monster's full appearance.

Although it is only a little over two meters tall, it does not affect its visual size.

Because it has no head and no neck.

The area around the chest looked like it was inlaid with two human heads, as if they might fall out at any moment. At the navel, it looked as if a large gash had been cut open, and you could even see the intestines moving inside.

Disgust and fear instantly overwhelmed me.

She bit down hard on her cheek, tasting a sweet, savory flavor. The pain forced her to calm down, sheathed her knife again, and assumed a fighting stance.

At this moment, Tian Kai and Mei happy came up from below.

Tian Kai's hand hung limply to one side, seemingly reattached, but it was clear he couldn't exert any force at all.

He had probably calmed down and stopped ordering the mountain of flesh to attack. Instead, he stared coldly at Tang Mucheng in the distance. "I'll give you one last chance. Drop the knife, obey me, and I'll spare your life."

"Otherwise, once the Mountain of Flesh starts its attack, it will be too late for you to regret it."

"Heh~" Tang Mucheng chuckled lightly, her cold voice escaping her lips, "If you've got the guts, kill me..."

"That bitch!" Tian Kai was seething with hatred.

It was truly a case of losing both wife and army! He didn't get to enjoy the woman, and instead lost an arm.

Thinking of this, anger surged up in my chest again.

"Then you can die." He raised his hand, waved it downwards, and ordered, "Kill her!"

Upon receiving the order, the meat mountain crouched down on its two short legs, suddenly gathered its strength, and charged towards Tang Mucheng like a human bomb tank.

Faced with such a huge creature, Tang Mucheng dared not take it head-on and dodged to the side.

Unexpectedly, this mountain of flesh was not only extremely fast, but also very agile.

After being dodged, the mountain of flesh, defying the laws of physics, forcibly twisted its massive body, the rotting flesh and bones emitting a teeth-grinding friction sound, and charged at Tang Mucheng once again.

There was nowhere to hide on the cramped rooftop.

Tang Mucheng's eyes narrowed, and her right hand instantly pressed down on the hilt of her sword. Before the air current from the sword draw had subsided, she took a half step back with her left foot, twisted her waist, and the long sword drew a second and a third dazzling silver arc in the air!

"cut!"

Not one, but three sword energies almost connected in a line, tearing through the air and emitting a sharp whistle, striking the torso of the mountain of flesh one after another in a "川" (river) shape.

The first step involves splitting open the surface layer of rotting flesh, causing dark red blood to splatter.

The second cut penetrates deeper into the flesh, vaguely revealing the stark white bones.

The third one, right in the very center, is the hideous human head embedded in it!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The momentum of the mountain of flesh was abruptly halted; its massive body shook violently, and a painful howl emanated from its chest. Chunks of rotting flesh rained down.

However, it was only for one meal.

"roar--!"

A low growl, brimming with fury, emanated from the vibrations of its abdomen.

Instead of retreating, the mountain of flesh used the impact to smash the ground with even greater ferocity and unleash a punch! The fist, accompanied by a fierce wind, was almost half the size of Tang Mucheng's body.

The sword energy has dissipated, and no new power has been generated.

Tang Mucheng gritted her teeth, gripped the hilt of the sword tightly with both hands, held the long sword upright with the back of the blade pressed against her forearm, and positioned it in front of her body in the most stable defensive posture.

BOOM—!!

It was as if a giant hammer had struck an anvil.

An unimaginable force surged through the blade. Tang Mucheng felt excruciating pain in both arms, her bones cracking, and her thumbs split open, blood staining the hilt. She was thrown backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily against the railing at the edge of the rooftop. A sweet taste rose in her throat, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

Although the long sword was not broken, it had bent into a shocking arc.

Before she could even react, a blood-red intestine shot out from inside the mountain of flesh.

puff.

The intestines pierced directly through her left ribcage.

But that wasn't all; inside the mountain of flesh, countless intestines popped out.

They were densely packed together, like clumps of blood flukes in a pool.

Suddenly, all of his intestines shot towards Tang Mucheng.

The arc of light from the drawn sword flashed again, severing the first few strands. But there were too many; a tangled intestine cleverly bypassed the blade and tightly constricted her neck.

Breathing became difficult, and her vision began to blur. Tang Mucheng tried to struggle in vain, but felt her strength rapidly draining away from the wound in her abdomen along with the blood.

...Is this the end?

That's fine. At least we'll die a clean death.

Before losing consciousness, the man's face inexplicably flashed through my mind. Rough skin, resolute features. If he were here...

No. She bit her tongue hard, the stinging pain bringing a moment of clarity. What difference did it make if he was there? He'd just be paying with his life.

The intestines tightened, and the bones emitted a mournful sound.

Just then—

A figure sliced ​​through the moonlight like a black lightning bolt, moving so fast it left afterimages. Energy blades erupted, severing the tangled intestines in the same instant!

The putrid liquid poured out like a torrential rain. Tang Mucheng felt her body lighten as she fell downwards, only to land in a firm embrace.

She struggled to lift her eyelids.

A face with rough skin and regular features appeared before my eyes.

Tang Mucheng didn't speak, but she pursed her lips, her lips trembled, and her eyes were red, like a little girl who had been bullied.
