My 100th Rebirth a day before the Apocalypse novel Chapter 481

As time ticked on and uncertainty hung in the air, Kisha decided they couldn’t afford to wait any longer.

She immediately sent Sparrow and the rest of the team to take positions around the wall, putting their work on hold.

Everyone was on high alert.

The flares had been scattered throughout the city, surrounding them from all directions.

If it turned out to be an enemy’s signal to attack their base, they would be in serious trouble if they weren’t prepared. Tension gripped the camp as they braced for whatever might come next.

Kisha stood atop the wall, scanning the horizon as the sun rose fully into the sky. All the snipers were peering as far as they could through their scopes, and machine guns were loaded, ready to fire at a moment’s notice.

Some soldiers were preparing to deploy drones to survey beyond the blocked views caused by surrounding buildings. But just as they were about to take action, something unexpected happened.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions erupted across the city, distant at first but steadily growing closer.

The sound echoed in a relentless chain, like a massive serpent slithering underground toward the base.

One by one, manhole covers blasted into the air, propelled by each explosion. As the wave of blasts approached, each cover shot up higher, until the final manhole cover outside the base flew skyward, reaching above the ten-meter wall where Kisha stood.

Everyone watched in shock, their mouths open as they followed the cover’s trajectory.

It hurtled back down and crashed onto the cargo trailer where Kisha stood, embedding deeply from the top and reaching the bottom. If it had hit anyone, it would have been an instant death.

But the explosions didn’t stop there. The chain reaction continued, reaching underneath the base itself.

The ground trembled, and another blast sent the nearest manhole cover hurtling skyward, along with debris, torn zombie limbs, and splatters of dark blood.

Fortunately, everyone had already taken cover; the soldiers on the wall had spotted the approaching explosions in time to warn the people inside and made them take cover as soon as possible.

Thanks to their quick reactions, no one was injured, and the survivors inside the base were spared from a gruesome shower of the zombie remains raining down after the blast.

Some of the superhumans, like Kisha, reacted swiftly to protect themselves. Those with elemental abilities formed protective shields—water shells, earth barriers, and more.

Kisha, using her telekinesis, pulled a nearby truck over her head as a makeshift cover, shielding herself from the foul-smelling zombie blood and raining flesh.

Those standing close to her hadn’t reacted quite as quickly, but they managed to find shelter in time under her makeshift cover, thanks to Kisha’s quick thinking and resourcefulness.

Unfortunately, the less fortunate ones—Rakan, his men, and Vulture—had no choice but to endure the shower of black zombie blood.

Worse still, as they were looking up with open mouths, some of the blood and flesh landed inside.

Though they’d long since become accustomed to the zombies’ foul stench, tasting it was another matter.

The moment the taste and smell hit, Rakan, his team, and Vulture couldn’t hold back; they all began to retch, competing to see who could empty their stomachs fastest.

Sparrow snickered as he watched his partner, Vulture, looking pitifully covered in the zombie’s black blood and bits of rotting flesh.

Reluctant to even touch him, Sparrow took clear satisfaction in Vulture’s misfortune; after all, he’d been the one to bear all the bad luck in their previous missions.

’Like they say, share the blessings along with the hardships,’ he thought with a silent laugh, watching the scene unfold before him.
