Everyone in the team noticed that the sobered up captain was pondering on something while maintaining a calm face.

Suddenly, he stood up and waved his hand: “Follow me out.”

Looking from the outside, the whole building’s dilapidation was even more obvious. The walls had lost their original color and some places were exposing the brick foundation. The windows were broken and were hanging half askew outside.

Some people said that architecture had life and humanity was like the soul of the architecture. Different people lived in it and they gave different souls to the architecture. Those buildings that had experienced many masters always appeared to be in vicissitudes and held wisdom. With the advent of the end of the world, buildings had lost their original owners. Just like zombies without souls and flesh, they became ruins little by little.

This place was not far from the base. Soon, the assistant team brought back what they needed from the base. Zhang Zhiyin checked it once, nodded, raised his left hand high and waved it down.

The demolition campaign officially began.

What was brought from the base was something like a ladder and a slinger. Every base prepared similar equipment to prevent zombie sieges and protect the base. This was now put into use at this moment.

First of all, three fire elemental ability users in the team would stand on the high ladder and work together to release fire dragons and fireballs in the direction of the fourth level attic. Fires produced by the elemental ability were more aggressive than ordinary fires – they were hotter and harder to extinguish once ignited.

The fire burned quickly, and the whole attic was plunged into a sea of fire in an instant.

They heard a scream and everyone felt a shock and a splitting headache. They thought that the zombie of this attic realized what was happening and had became angry.

About ten minutes later, it seemed that the strength was insufficient and the fires gradually died down, and at last, little by little, they extinguished and went out completely. Within the smoke, the burnt black walls were still visible. But the whole attic was still intact and undamaged by the fire.

Zhang Zhiyin had predicted this when the fire powers withdrew, he and two water ability users climbed the ladder and quickly cooled the wall with ice and cold water. The attic had cold air wafting up.

The assistant team operated the launcher and began to launch stones into the attic.

After the end of the world, this kind of launcher was specially designed to guard the base had been greatly developed. Advanced launchers were not only easy to operate, but they were also able to launch a kind of projectile-like light mass with great damage. Ordinary launchers could also launch combustible weapons such as artillery shells and explosives. Yulin Base’s launchers were the lowest grade and could only throw rocks.

But that was enough. As the boulders hit the walls, after two rounds of devastation it began to show its fragility by crumbling.

The only wood ability user in the team, Ah Mu, came up to Zhang Zhiyin and gestured “Everything is okay”. His head was sweaty and his lips were white, which showed that he had consumed a lot of energy. Zhang Zhiyin nodded, patted him on the shoulder and told him to have a good rest.
