Chapter 146: The Source
Chapter 146 - The SourceEven though the soldiers and survivors couldn't use the massive-caliber ammunition dropped for the Goliath and mechanical beasts, their morale soared. Cheers erupted across the battlefield as more than twenty Avalons roared overhead, dropping vital supplies. As the Avalons completed their supply drops, they banked sharply, heading toward the rear of the zombie horde. Their bomb bays opened, revealing payloads of magnetic fluid cloud bombs. It was time to deal a decisive blow.
At the rear of the zombie tide, Ava and his team had been meticulously
The plasma blade burned brighter as Zack surged forward, carving through the horde like a living storm of metal and fire. The three-meter-long ion sword, held in the hand of the towering six-meter-tall Titan, seemed more like a short dagger, perfectly proportioned to Zack's mechanical colossus.
"Roar—!" Several lords charged, their monstrous forms radiating raw power. But Zack was unfazed. With a single calculated sweep, he swung the ion sword in a fiery arc, slicing through the air. The air shimmered and twisted around the blade as if recoiling from its intense heat. A crimson streak trailed the sword's edge, cutting through the bodies of the charging lords. Heads rolled. Not just figuratively, but literally. Seven or eight lords collapsed at Zack's feet, their heads split cleanly in two, right through the middle. The edges of their wounds were seared black, the ion sword's extreme heat cauterizing the cuts instantly.
Thud! Thud! The bodies fell heavily, pooling at Zack's feet like discarded debris. "Now I see why Lillian always looked so cool," Zack muttered with a sly grin, twirling the glowing ion sword. The weapon wasn't just deadly—it was a masterpiece. The blade's high-frequency ions allowed it to vibrate at incredible speeds, generating a heat that could destabilize molecular structures. In simpler terms, it could cut through anything that wasn't harder or more elastic than its material.
"Master, we've located the leader!" Lillian's voice crackled through the comms. "It's hiding in this wave of corpses!" Rejoining her and the Fearless Warriors, Zack didn't hesitate. He plunged into the thickest part of the horde, carving a path straight toward the heart of the zombie wave.
The Titan's sheer size and weight turned Zack into an unstoppable force. Ordinary zombies crumbled beneath his feet, their bodies pulverized by his eleven-ton bulk. For the mutated zombies, he spared only the slightest effort—a casual swing of his ion sword was enough to cleave them in two. Even the notoriously tough Mutated Lords couldn't withstand more than a couple of strikes. "This might be the easiest fight I've ever had," Zack said, exhilarated by the sheer dominance of his new armor.
For the first time, he felt invincible, as if he could take on the entire tide of millions singlehandedly. The Titan's power was intoxicating, making Zack believe that nothing could stop him. "Sir, I've pinpointed the source of the high-frequency sound waves," Ego's calm voice cut through his thoughts. "The target has been marked."
"Got it," Zack replied, his tone sharpening. He spotted the leader immediately—an ordinary-looking zombie, unnervingly plain amidst the chaos. But its behavior gave it away. Surrounded by hordes of mutated zombies, it stood at the epicenter of their frenzied aggression, directing the horde like a conductor leading an orchestra.
