At this moment, just as the first volley of bullets was fired, the second round was already being loaded into the launch tubes.Forty meters away from them, nine squad leaders, five reserve squad leaders, and 19 level 9 team members all radiated intense energy bursts as they unleashed a barrage of system attacks like torrential rain, all targeting the command unit of the zombie horde.A hundred meters away, three heavy machine guns hidden behind thick barricades began spraying bullets wildly, creating a barrage of fire.Six hundred meters from the location, atop a high-speed jeep surrounded by hundreds of people crouching on the ground, Wallflower coldly squeezed the trigger. A demon-slaying bullet, shrouded in dark energy and violent suppressive force, whizzed through the air toward the distant front line, igniting into a fierce blaze upon impact.Standing on the rooftop, Memphis waved his hand forward slightly.In the sky above the zombie horde, snow began to fall.In just one secon
Memphis, seeing this, was ecstatic, ready to play his trump card. But the next scene felt like a plunge into icy water for him.Oeeeeeee...A heartrending wail echoed through the battlefield. In response to the cry, the S2 level 20 zombie began to convulse violently as if in a seizure. The bone shields that had fallen off its body rapidly regenerated, and its shattered carapace slowly closed up, with black, viscous fluid covering the wounds. In just two seconds, it was fully restored to its peak state, with no signs of any previous damage.Not only was the S2 level 20 zombie fully healed, but its level even increased, transforming into an S2 level 21. The creature seemed to have been injected with boundless energy, and it opened its grotesque mouth, filled with scraps of flesh and coarse hair, to unleash a concentrated blood-red energy beam.The fourth energy shield was once again reinforced, bolstering its resistance against the human attacks.Not only that, but the P2 level 24 zombi
Wallflower’s resilience was bolstered by her tier-3 skill-enhanced fortitude, but the enemy's strength was overwhelming, making it difficult for her to withstand the full force.The mastermind behind the attacks, facing threats from too many directions, chose to target the area with the densest concentration of human scents and the strongest oppressive aura—where the anti-demon bullets were fired.Hearing the scream, Memphis immediately said in a deep voice: “Split up!"Once the mastermind overcame its initial difficulties, it would start mobilizing its army to block the path while launching continuous violent assaults on the source of the th
The battle progressed as planned, with the anti-tank rounds fired by Lazarus hitting their mark with extreme precision. P2 level 25 was hiding at the rear, surrounded by a large number of evolved zombies in front, along with three Shield-2 defensive units charging forward, leaving the defensive rear force of the evolved zombies quite vulnerable.The anti-tank rounds shot towards the most critical target, nearly sending both the P2 level 25 and the fetus within its belly back to the earth."Oeeeeeee..."In that life-and-death moment, with survival instincts kicking in, the mastermind behind the scenes unleashed a desperate and intense response. It let out a mournful and piercing cry, and upon hearing the command, the P2 level 25 frantically dodged to the side. Simultaneously, one of the three Shield units instantly generated a circular energy shield and, with legs as stout as those of a pig, jumped backward, directly placing itself in the path of the incoming round.Boom...Boom! Boom!
"Aaaa...""Ugh, ugh, ugh...""It hurts so much, stop...""Run, run away...""Help, there are zombies..."The sound of a child wailing crashed down like a storm, directly assaulting everyone’s psyche. This soul-targeting attack was far stronger than anything that had come before, carrying an overwhelming force that sought to crush everything in its path. Countless humans were struck down, collapsing to the ground in tears and retching uncontrollably.On the frontlines at Sunset Boulevard’s seventh defensive line, four soldiers immediately died with their heads exploding, blood and brain matter splattering everywhere. Nine others fell unconscious, twenty-one people bled from their orifices, and over a hundred were struck with mental breakdowns, their intelligence points plummeting, while nightmarish hallucinations engulfed their minds.Even those positioned at Sapphire Avenue and Whispering Boulevard were mentally shaken, their limbs trembling, morale evaporating like boiling water. Jar
Everyone hearing this exhaled heavily, their spirits weighed down.It had taken 13 anti-tank rounds and 1,300 rounds of 12.7mm ammo just to eliminate half of the zombie horde’s main force. The remaining ones were the most resilient and dangerous. Especially that F2 at level 23, it was currently the second most threatening zombie after M2, level 24.With the remaining resources, even taking down the two Shield zombies would be a challenge, let alone the rest of them. The zombies' meat-shield tactics had proven too effective, blocking many of the 12.7mm rounds. Otherwise, those 1,300 heavy rounds and 13 anti-tank shells would have been enough to kill all four Shield zombies.Thankfully, the P2 at level 24, after taking direct hits from two anti-tank rounds and the resulting blast, had been killed. Otherwise, the situation would have been even more dire.The zombies moved far too quickly. Normally, it would take 30 minutes to move from the 5th defensive line to the 6th. But now, with the
Seeing Wallflower beginning to exhibit signs of doubt and self-blame, Memphis couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.He took a radio from his backpack, tuned it to a designated frequency, checked that it was working properly, and then handed it to Wallflower with a sincere smile."I was just kidding. Miss Wallflower, whether we fight or sacrifice ourselves, it's all in the pursuit of hope, freedom, survival, and a safe future. You seek it, I seek it, everyone seeks it. Those who died along the way did so by their own choice, but I'm the one who bears responsibility for that."It was I who pushed them into the battlefield, who turned down the government's help, indirectly forcing them to become stronger on their own, only to meet tragic ends on the road to hope. It was I who failed to consider your feelings, who bound you to my own ideals and to the town of Hope."I've realized my mistake now, that I shouldn't force anything. I'm giving you this radio unconditionally, so you can seek govern
Except for Yosef Leyton and Wylie Rawson, who were still unconscious, this was the strongest force that Hope Town had ever assembled.Memphis raised his hand and said in a loud voice:"The upcoming battle is the one that will decide our hope and future. Among those standing here, some will survive, and some will die because of misfortune.""But! Those who live will continue to build the path to hope, and those who die will have perished in pursuit of that hope. I cannot guarantee that I will protect everyone, but I can guarantee that I will walk this path with you all, side by side."
