The cool medicine sprayed on both arms, and the sensation of pain in every muscle and fat decreased significantly.

Casually releasing a drone, Lucas looked around.

There were still at least thirty insects, and two other groups of zombies were approaching, soon joining the chase for the bus.

The system had set him up with this task!

Lucas felt he had overestimated himself.

Having a red-armored sniper rifle and a bus meant nothing if his physical fitness couldn't keep up. He couldn't handle the rifle anymore.

Unless he rested for at least half an hour, he wouldn't dare to use the sniper rifle.

Forget it, let's take a risk!

Lucas thought it over and decided to exchange the only remaining insect nucleus for a red capsule right away.

Originally, he wanted to save the red insect nucleus to exchange for a yellow capsule, but he had to prioritize saving his own life!

"Oh my God, give me something, a nuclear bomb!"

"Or a fire fist that lasts for ten minutes!"

Lucas was now incredibly devout, clasping his hands together and continuously chanting for what he desired.

【Congratulations to the host for gaining a direct +1 to bus functionality】

【Congratulations to the host for an increase in stamina, +10 stamina】

【Congratulations to the host for exceeding 100 stamina, reaching a superhuman level, reward: one dose of infection immunity medicine.】

Lucas quickly opened the bus blueprint and indeed found an additional function.

【Red Air Barrier (upgradable)】

Can create a transparent air barrier around the bus to withstand attacks from red-level infected and insects.

The range of the air barrier is circular with a diameter of ten meters.

The duration of this function depends on the energy supply.

It consumes 50 liters of gasoline energy per minute and can last for a maximum of ten minutes, with a 24-hour cooldown period. (Different levels have different consumption rates and durations.)

"50 liters of gasoline per minute?"

Seeing this number, Lucas quickly checked the fuel tank data of the bus.

The tank had a capacity of 400 liters, and there were still 390 liters remaining.

Lucas smiled. Even if he didn't use the gasoline stored inside the bus, the fuel in the tank alone could provide nearly eight minutes of usage time.

With a range of ten meters in diameter, it meant that neither zombies nor insects could get within ten meters of the bus.

This way, the risk of the bus's shell collapsing was directly eliminated, reducing a considerable amount of pressure.

At this point, the bus's shell had already suffered 10% damage. If it didn't have this function, allowing the insects to climb on board would eventually lead to the collapse of the bus.

In his joy, Lucas checked his own physical attributes again.

Previously, the yellow capsule had increased his stamina attribute by 15 points, reaching 92 points. Now, with an additional 10 points, it reached 102 points.

When each attribute of the body exceeded 100 points, it belonged to the superhuman range.

Lucas felt that his hands were not as sore, and his internal organs didn't seem as painful. He felt exceptionally good overall.

Don't underestimate this breakthrough of surpassing 100 points. It wasn't just a representation of the data but a qualitative change in the body.

At this moment, Lucas felt that even if he fired a hundred shots with the sniper rifle continuously, he probably wouldn't experience the same state as before.

What's more, he had just taken an infection immunity medicine, and the system had given him another one.

If the system were a person, Lucas really wanted to give it a few kisses.

Actually, Lucas also understood in his heart that this time, when he used the red capsule, the system had definitely taken care of him; otherwise, such coincidences wouldn't have occurred.

The functionality and physical attributes of the bus are indeed what Lucas needs.

Now Lucas was not worried at all. As long as he could use the sniper rifle, what else was there to fear?

He stood up and walked to the driver's cabin, setting a location for the bus to turn around and drive back a kilometer.

With the location set, Lucas grabbed the sniper rifle, carried the saw made from insect legs on his back, and holstered the pistol at his waist, preparing to activate the air barrier function.

"Hmm, a music player?"

Lucas looked at a button on the bus's central control system and suddenly had an idea.

"Let's play this song." Lucas selected a cheerful song and then got off the bus.

The air barrier function of the bus was activated, and the sound of heavy objects colliding could be heard.

All the zombies within ten meters of the bus were pushed away by an invisible air wall.

Blood rained in the air, and numerous bloodstains appeared on the ground.

"It works!"

Lucas looked at the empty space in front of the bus and exclaimed.

At this moment, the music started playing.

Lucas opened the bus door and took a step out.

Adjusting his body, he stood about three to four meters away from the bus's inner door. With a running start, he grabbed onto the protruding headlight with one hand, exerted force with his arm, and directly flipped onto the roof of the bus.

The sound from the car stereo was already turned up to the maximum, and the loud music could be heard within several hundred meters.

Boom!

The sniper rifle roared.

Fifteen meters away, the head of a leaping red insect was blasted to pieces!

Boom!

Lucas's finger twitched, and the deformed mouth of another insect turned into minced meat.

Lucas got excited and started changing his shooting positions.

Sometimes he crouched, sometimes he lay down, adapting to whatever felt comfortable.

While changing magazines, he sang loudly, occasionally even twisting his body as if dancing.

Lucas's singing accompanied the slaughter, creating an indescribably eerie scene.

The insects had become fireworks in this darkness, adorning everything with their exploding heads.

"Commander, take a look at this."

Several kilometers away from where Lucas was fighting, Henry, a guard, showed him the footage captured by a military drone.

"He... has gone crazy?"

Henry had been on the battlefield before and had seen soldiers who would dance and shout like Lucas.

When this happened, it usually meant that the soldier's mind had collapsed, leading to such behavior.

"Send my orders. Arrange thirty people to rescue him immediately. This person is important now. Only he can kill those monster insects."

Seeing Lucas's appearance, Henry immediately issued the order.

"Commander, I don't think... the gentleman seems to be not going insane."

The guard didn't immediately follow the order but pointed at the screen of the drone control panel, hesitating as he spoke.

"Not going insane?"

Henry didn't understand and looked at the footage again.

"Sir, look closely. Every time he fires his gun, he kills a monster insect. Not a single shot misses."

"And look again. Actually, I... I don't think he's shouting loudly. It looks more like... he's singing and dancing."

The guard wasn't sure, and his words were a bit stuttered.

"Singing?"

"You mean that while he's singing and dancing, he can still kill insects!"
