Memphis's mouth twitched as he looked at Wallflower and said:"Miss Wallflower... If you still have the energy, feel free to continue."Without showing any emotion, Wallflower continued singing:"A little yellow bird, chirps and hops..."After another 6 seconds, all the team leaders had recovered a total of 12 stamina points, and their temporary strength points had increased by 7 for the next 20 minutes.Without waiting for the group to express their gratitude, Wallflower abruptly stopped singing and walked straight out, her destination unknown.The dozen or so people remaining in the meeting room exchanged glances, noticing the fear in each other's eyes.Then someone quietly murmured:"Didn't Little Cold say it was the Iron Blood Song? It sounds more like the Torture Song... Does the leader have to listen to her sing every day?"Hearing this, Memphis couldn't help but twitch his face.That damned Jarred with his mouth that deserved a beating.But that was indeed the Iron Blood Song,
However, there was still hope. Most of the team members, both regular and reserve, had gained experience in large-scale battles, and their abilities had significantly grown. The number of high-level individuals needed to be recounted, but everyone had undoubtedly become extraordinary.Memphis glanced around before asking in a deep voice: “Does anyone have suggestions for our next move?”As usual, Yosef was the first to speak up: “Based on my analysis, the remaining zombie horde will likely move toward the county center to regroup with the main zombie forces, but they probably won’t receive the same level of protection as before.”He had a thorough understanding of the zombie horde’s behavior and could roughly predict the reaction of the mastermind behind them at the center of Meadowbrook Lane.“It” had given up on the remaining zombies, focusing instead on gathering as many high-level zombies as possible.Wylie quickly voiced his opinion, “In my view, we should take this opportunity t
Evergreen County.Cormac Dennis, Graham Ewing, and Tobin Ross were fleeing for their lives. Behind them, a speed-type zombie was relentlessly pursuing them.They had initially deployed 12 jeeps to scout the small hill, but now only 9 remained. Of the original 80 men, just over 60 were left, and everyone was injured.Cormac glanced back at the level 21 F2 zombie chasing them, his face darkening. He gritted his teeth, summoning a fiery spear a meter long in his hand, and with a swift motion, he hurled it backward.Boom!The fiery spear shot through the air at incredible speed, almost instantly striking its target and causing it to explode.But the target wasn’t the zombie—it was the tire of the rearmost jeep.With its tire blown, the jeep lost control, swerving violently before crashing into a nearby wall, throwing five or six burly men out in all directions.The F2 speed-type zombie let out a bloodthirsty roar the moment it spotted the group. It immediately abandoned its pursuit and lu
If the zombie horde hadn’t pushed so close to the town center, Memphis would have loved to keep pushing straight to level 14.But now the situation was getting risky. They were only about 3 kilometers from the town center, and 2 kilometers from the safe zone. If they didn’t retreat now, and a high-level zombie suddenly attacked, they wouldn’t have a chance to escape.He raised his hand and ordered:"Clean up the battlefield and retreat!"Upon hearing his command, the subordinates exhaled a sigh of relief and began throwing gasoline bombs to burn all the zombie corpses. They then followed the sequence to retreat. The military vehicles were always ready, transporting the exhausted troops back to Hope Town.Subsequently, the teams on Sunset Boulevard and Whispering also retreated in succession, bringing along the workers and temporarily pausing their preparations.Of course, it was only temporary. Tonight, the workers would continue their earth-digging operations.As soon as the vehicle
Looking at the thick report in his hand and glancing at the absent-minded expression on Dr. Beirne’s face, Memphis began his work of persuasion:“Dr. Beirne, on behalf of 143 team members and 372 residents of Hope Town, I want to thank you.”Dr. Beirne, startled, stammered: “W-Why…?”Memphis, in a deep voice, explained:“You know, 15 people died because they didn’t know how to allocate their potential points correctly. If this report had been available earlier, and they had known how to allocate their points properly, even if they were severely injured, they might have been able to hold on long enough to be treated.“This report you’ve produced will help the remaining 143 team members know how to save themselves, how to ensure they have enough stats to wait for rescue. You’ve indirectly saved many lives. You’ve secured the future of Hope Town.”Dr. Beirne’s lips moved as if to speak, but he couldn’t find the words…Memphis didn’t give him time to think further. He took out a second-ti
After a brief exchange of greetings, Memphis raised his hand and said:“Let’s begin.”As usual, Lionel Hester led the presentation, and Amanda Owens distributed the preliminary documents.“We’ve secured more than 7 tons of various food supplies, 11 tons of fuel, and taken control of one gas station. We’ve rescued 73 people, including 11 extraordinary individuals... Of course, these numbers are still growing as many houses remain unexplored."“The breakdown includes 32 men, 29 women, and 12 children. For now, their condition is stable."“Currently, the population of Hope Town stands at 463.”Human resilience is incredibly strong. Despite the zombie infestation outside, people still find ways to survive indoors. They lock their doors, stay inside rooms, and consume stored food. Some hide in basements, water tanks, cars—many ways to stay alive. As long as they don’t run into high-level zombies and still have food and water, they manage to survive.These achievements brought joy to the te
After discussing a few more issues with his brother, Memphis slowly said:"After dinner, instruct Michal Reilly and Jaden McNeil to urge all survivors, the supply gathering team, and the fortifications team to start digging immediately. Tell Lionel to bring over some battery-powered lights; we’ll be working through the night."Jarred responded gravely: “Only by working through the night do we have a chance of winning against them…"Jarred then hesitated before asking: “Big brother, why don't we just use fire to make things easier?"Memphis replied calmly: “Fire is effective, but who will put it out? This urban area is densely packed with buildings. Do you plan on burning down both our army and theirs? Moreover, zombies can endure fire much better than humans. Unless it's a last resort, we won’t use fire recklessly."Zombies, when set on fire, might still persistently advance if they haven't been killed, but humans can’t even approach large fires, let alone deal with the risk of being
The big battle is coming, life and death are uncertain, who has time to care about this disabled group? If they win, he would give a small raise to pacify them; if they lose, even if they cry out, they shouldn't expect his attention, and he might abandon them outright during the escape.Next was the internal situation of the ten squads recently.The members of Wylie Rawson's squad showed almost absolute loyalty to Memphis and Jarred. Most of these people were carefully selected by that brat Wylie, all rebellious and valiant youths who respected the strong and hated being forced into conformity by the government.Reports from the teams of Gemma Pryor, Timon Roo
