Capítulo 41: I spy with my little eye(Part-4)

"I am out.", Ryan shouted out as the last of the bullets had been consumed, neither the machine guns nor their guns had any left, the trio of elves was in a much better position as their quiver had auto summoning feature as such they were able to get their arrows back after a few seconds, but they're still over a dozen of those creatures.

Normally the trio would have dealt with most of those creatures, but unfortunately, they were at a severe disadvantage, the filters of their mask had been working some time, for now, filtering out the poisonous substances from the air had taken its toll as it was now practically useless making it difficult to breathe.

'I am glad that I have managed to upgrade my lungs otherwise I would have been in serious difficulty by now.'

"Draw melee weapons, get ready!", Michalina bellowed out as they all brought out their respective weapons, which ranged from a rapier to hatchet as they got ready to meet the zombies head-on.

'Damn it if each of us had more bullets then this would not have taken place, but what should I do now.', as Ryan's grip on his weapon hardened he was suddenly reminded of one of his more unique abilities.

'How could I forget about it, I am an idiot!', as such whispered out loud, "Status!"

His words drew the attention of Delimira who looked at him curiously trying to discern his next move, as being the closest to Ryan she could feel his aura fluctuate a bit.

Meanwhile, Ryan could see a familiar holographic projection in front of his eyes, which he did not waste time to go through him.

"Remove the screen and add blood points to all up to the maximum level.", he promptly said out loud, and except the Elves, no one paid him much attention, while Delimira gawked at him from behind her mask.

'How did his aura suddenly become stronger than before?', but before she could say anything with teeth bare and jaws open wide, a group of zombies dashed towards the opening at the balcony climbing through the hill of their fallen brethren's corpses, without paying heed to the fire burning bright.

The first one to enter had its head sliced into pieces by Ryan, as he turned he was greeted by the rest of his companions in a serious battle against the zombies, he knew that his sisters were skilled incredibly so, but the zombies were above their level not to mention they were stronger, faster as such it was only matter of time they would succumb.

A familiar visage floated in front of his eyes, the blood drippy….he shook his head as he focused on the threats before him, he lunged at the nearest as it was about to bite off Nikita's head skewering it destroying its brain before kicking it off Nikita, who simply bashed the head to a pulp as they joined together to help Angela, but before they could reach her a pair of arrows made a short work of the zombies and soon thereafter every other zombie were dealt with extreme prejudice.

A few minutes later the huffing and puffing dog tired group looked at the still-burning forests as Ryan shakily went towards the opening of the bunker, he raised his hands as the ghostly images of the wall appeared which slowly formed into the solid wall thereby cutting any access to the outside.

The group then slowly trudged down the stairs as the failed filter had done a number on them, they were wheezing and coughing as they reached the trailer, they entered the trailer and soon collapsed as the fresh and cool air inside the trailer hit them, refreshing their lungs as their masks were promptly abandoned on the floor.

Harrison stood up as he and his wife quickly brought them cups filled with water that the group drank up as if it were their lifeline, while Ryan made his way to the 'Portable Quantum Stochastís' as he furiously began to work on it.

"Ryan stop working and rest you all have suffered so much because of the smoke and whatnot, please lie down and rest.", Florence's voice came to his ears but he did not pay any heed to her, "Ryan, please."

With a frustrated sigh, Ryan began to speak, "Sorry but there is stuff to be done that are incredibly important than my health also compared to them I am more tolerant to some poisonous smoke."

Florence rubbed the bridge of her nose as she spoke, "And what important task you need to accomplish?"

"Well for starters I had already created air cleaning and detoxifying system with adequate filters that I need to start and make sure they are working properly as such the air outside the trailer becomes breathable, then I have to make sure we have enough filters so that we can venture out soon, not to mention I need to create ammo for our guns and they are badly needed as we are completely out of it."

Florence narrowed her eyes at his answer as she spoke, "Why do you need to get out there?"

"The zombies may have been dead for now but their bodies join together to spawn something known as an abomination as such we have to dispose of their bodies as fast as possible and there are quite a large number of bodies out there."

His words seemed to have reached the ears of others as they let out a tired groan as Michalina could not help but ask out, "How long before we get the ammo and other stuff."

Ryan bit his lips as he spoke, "It would take time, I do not have the processing power of the base and even at full power the current process is incredibly slow it would take me an entire day for our stocks to be full, and I do not wish to face another 'abomination' so soon."

Delimira sighed as she spoke, "Is it possible for us to begin at dawn?"

Ryan shrugged as he spoke, "Well you all experts on 'Abomination', so you tell us if it possible for us to wait for dawn."

Delimira nodded looking incredibly tired as she spoke, "Well we have time, and as such, I propose that we deal with them tomorrow morning."

Ryan shrugged as he spoke, "Fair enough but let me finish ordering my stuff."

With his piece said he began to order the various machines that were present inside and outside of the trailer to begin their work of gathering various resources from the planet and then processing them into various items.

Next day, a tired group stepped out of their base, the fire had stopped though smoke could be seen still rising from a few places, what was worst was that most of the forest was missing letting the base stuck like a sore thumb, part of it was blackened after getting scorched by the intense fire, and in the morning light it looked like the scar of a veteran that has survived many wars.

"So what is the plan, Michalina?", Jessica spoke her voice sounding a bit hoarse from coughing.

"Well big sis I have a plan.", his words drew the attention of everyone, as Michalina nodded for him to continue.

"I believe we have around two hundred litres of petrol, in storage and we have no need of so much as such we drag the bodies in a pile, douse them petrol and lit them aflame, and because we are using petrol it would be easier and faster to deal with them."

Michalina narrowed her eyes as he looked up towards the sky as she spoke, "Well it seems we think alike brother, well ladies start gathering them up, Ryan and Angela go and bring the fuel we are going to burn them to ash."

Ryan simply nodded as he and Angela ran back inside the base to gather the fuel, as they moved towards the tank of fuel that was stored at the furthest corner of the base, Angela could not help but ask him out loud, "Ryan how did you manage to create the M242 as well as all those rounds for it, should it not strain your mana as well take more time to make all of them."

Ryan looked back at her as he spoke with slight mirth in his voice, "Well I kind of cheated."

Angela tilted her head in confusion as she could not help but ask out loud, "What do you mean by cheated?"

"Well, I combined the five of the machine gun rounds to create single for that big gun."

At Ryan's words, Angela's eyes widen as she spoke, "That was why we ran out of ammo so fast."

Ryan shrugged at that as he spoke, "Well I cannot help, we needed something powerful and that was the result after we are done I would like to gather the empty shells that are still lying around it would make the creation of newer rounds faster."

Angela shook her head as she spoke, "I just hope we do not have to face similar dangerous enemies in the future."

Ryan snorted at that as he spoke, "That is one thing that will never happen, the more the passes by the more it would become difficult."

Angela slouched forwards as she let out a tired groan as Ryan continued, "Do you thing back home they are alright?"

Angela simply gave him a small pat as she spoke, "Of course why would they not be, Major is with them and she will keep them safe, not to mention the different gadgets that you have made for them."

Ryan let out a tired sigh as he spoke, "I hope Angela, I hope they are okay."
