The two had been battling long enough that most of their trump cards were revealed. Fergus was now 80% sure that Memphis had nothing to do with the terrorist act. His opponent was strong, but not to the extent of slicing through a seven-story building in one strike—especially with a technique identical to his own Slash.

Memphis lacked such a skill. If he had it, he would have used it already. His primary focus on ice and psychic abilities left no room for investing in a devastating slash technique powerful enough to rival the combined force of hundreds.

His refusal to undergo verification was also explainable. A rebel leader wouldn’t dare step foot in Lakeside’s jurisdiction. Once there, even if innocent, the government would find other charges to convict him. Fear and distrust were understandable.

This realization brought Fergus despair. If Memphis wasn’t the perpetrator, then who was? Who had mercilessly killed his men and framed Memphis for the crime?

The final straw was within rea

    In the moment of life and death, Wallflower suddenly overcame her usual cowardice and decided to charge forward to block the attack. A 4-meter-wide layer of purple Light Armor was immediately summoned. The terrifying blade energy, which could destroy everything in the blink of an eye, hit the armor, but it could not tear it apart, only forcing the Light Armor to deflate like a deflating balloon.The power of a full-force blow from an Evolved Being was immeasurable.However, the blade energy was too vast, too enormous. The Light Armor summoned by Wallflower could only block half of the energy. The remaining half still sliced through, cutting down dozens of people behind her, hundreds of tiny blade energies being released, pouring down as if to slaughter all the high-ranking members there.

    On the 21st day after the apocalypse, Memphis carried nearly 50 skills of various types, with Fergus perhaps having even more. With such a vast number, could one really understand and perfectly utilize them?No.A fifth-tier skill is not something that can simply be used by unleashing potential. It’s difficult to raise a hammer to crush an ant, and the skills in this game are even harder. Fifth-tier skills are no joke. If one could only activate a skill by tapping into potential, they would never reach its true power.Memphis possessed quite a few fourth-tier skills, but he didn’t dare use them as his trump card in this battle. He knew that he didn’t have enough extraordinary knowledge.Even with a fourth-tier skill, it was still like using a sledgehammer—he hadn’t yet learned to wield that fourth-tier sledgehammer in a fierce battle.He could still use them reluctantly, but if the situation became difficult, defeat would be inevitable.On the first day of the apocalypse, Jarred had o

    On the eastern shore, standing amidst the teeming crowd, Verne quietly swallowed hard and muttered a few words of "to the death" in unison, while the expressions of most of the other leaders were exceedingly grim. The effect of the earlier propaganda compared to the current one was vastly different—even their own soldiers were beginning to waver.Memphis, standing at the forefront, waited for the fervent shouting to subside before raising his voice again through the loudspeaker:"We have poured all our efforts and abilities into proving to you that we are entirely innocent. Everyone has seen that we are incapable of carrying out any acts of terrorism, let alone possessing the motive to commit such despicable deeds.""Yet! The harder we try to prove ourselves, the more some among you strive to deny it, the more they seek to reject this truth. The more we wish for peaceful negotiations and cooperation, the more these people grow aggressive and belligerent, determined to block any attemp

    Xenon let out a weary, melancholic sigh. If he had been more resolute in mediating, more adamant in opposing the attack, things wouldn’t have reached this irreparable point.Starla watched as the four fireballs gradually faded. A faint ripple of emotion stirred within her. Closing her eyes for a few seconds, she turned and walked away, no longer concerned about what might happen next.Wallflower’s hands clenched and released, clenched and released again, her mood shifting with each passing second. Her crimson lips trembled slightly before she bit down gently, letting out a cold hum and muttering something under her breath. It was unclear what she saw or what she was cursing.Memphis surveyed the desolation before him, the corners of his lips curving into a cold smile. Raising his hand to the sky, he called out loudly:"Squads 3 and 5, stay behind to hold the position. All remaining forces, retreat immediately!"Having achieved all his objectives without expending significant resources

    Before the apocalypse, the country of T had once resorted to tanks to suppress tens of thousands of student protesters—students who were easily swayed by lofty ideals, fighting without fear until their deaths. The residents of Hope Town now mirrored this, wholly chasing after the "hope" being proclaimed and discarding the rule of law. Step by step, they’d forgotten the order of the past, and anyone challenging it would face violent resistance.With the apocalypse looming, conditions for this manipulation became even easier to meet, and the environment for cultivating rebellion even more favorable. Renaissance Base, with its mere thousand residents, had more than enough resources to use as bait in the early stages, to train a group of people willing to fight to madness. The absence of government intervention allowed this plan to progress smoothly.And now, over a thousand residents on the western bank of Grieving River were fully brainwashed, entirely turned against the government, and

    The final conclusion received unanimous approval. The reason for not deploying all forces was the need to address other battlefields.In the north, at Cloudy town, seventy percent of the zombies had been drawn to the outskirts of Sunny Hills village. The Manipulation Type buried beneath the hills was increasingly dominant in attracting forces to its cause.The massive zombie horde at Dragon Light County in Province NO showed no signs of being troubled. It continued to mobilize zombies bit by bit, infiltrating past the boundary wall and encroaching on Renaissance territory. It seemed determined not to miss this "juicy prey.” showing no concern for sacrificing troops unnecessarily.According to the latest intelligence from scouts, only 43 meters of the boundary wall rema

    While Hope Town was holding its meeting, the leadership of Lakeside District Base was similarly convening to determine their future course of action.With attendance limited to individuals of deputy battalion commander rank and above, it was a closed meeting of the true upper echelon.After resolving the thorny issue of how to handle relations with Hope Town, they shifted their discussion to the situation involving the zombie hordes."At Pure Essence City, all three bridges show signs of being under attack by zombie hordes. I’m eighty percent certain that by 8 a.m. tomorrow, a horde of 70,000 zombies from Pure Essence City will assault Bridge A-0.""In Whiskey District, the 100,000-strong zombie horde surrounding Battalion 101’s area is extremely powerful and ferocious. They cannot be lured away, and any provocation leads to them unleashing their full force. With our current resources, breaking through will be extremely challenging, requiring heavy sacrifices to achieve, if it's even

    Sacrificing the short term for the long term, avoiding strength and targeting weakness—these were fundamental principles. Yet articulating them wasn’t so simple. Murphy, in the end, wasn’t merely a power-hungry bureaucrat.With the two leading figures of both the military and civilian sectors supporting this plan, the others also expressed their agreement one after another.Destroying the bridge, though regrettable, serves no purpose anymore. Previously, there was a plan to use these three bridges to attack Pure Essence City and alleviate some of the pressure on Harbor Line County. But now? Forget it. Everyone’s scrambling to save their own skin and barely managing at that.With this decision essentially approved, Starla, who had been silently sitting

Eventually, it was claimed by Xander."Third Tier, Letting Go of the Past."This skill, a healing and recovery ability, could erase past injuries.It was a miracle for everyone, especially considering the current state of Hope Town, with many injured—missing limbs, deafness, blindness. This skill was the foremost hope for the disabled to regain their humanity.Memphis directly assigned the skill to Maggie, the squad leader of the medical corps. Most others had no objections. This skill had no combat applications and was a self-sacrificing, altruistic ability. Handing it over for collective use was logic

    Holding one dollar implies that the government of Country M owes you one dollar. It’s their responsibility to honor that debt, and you can use it to purchase goods within their territory.Holding an ounce of gold allows you to exchange it for food and supplies in any country, as gold is universally accepted as a valuable metal.Owning oil means you can trade it for countless other items because oil is considered a highly valuable commodity, essential to many industries and convertible into almost any necessity.Simplified, that’s the gist of it. To elaborate further, Country M’s ability to back its dollar stems not only from the value of its goods—which are genuinely excellent and traded widely—but also from the strength of its "fist." Those who refuse to comply are subjected to, well: “human rights interventions."In Hope Town, battle points would be worthless without equivalent resource backing. If you tried to exchange Hope Town battle points in Lakeside, you’d get nothing but a sl

    Even if it came down to the moment when the Dawn Light zombies began moving, Memphis would be the one to destroy the bridge connecting Lakeside and Whiskey, thereby monopolizing the arsenal at Battalion 101—or at the very least, looting all the ammunition with his level-4 Storage Ring, leaving the armored vehicles for Lakeside to scavenge.Trying to pressure him? Political maneuvering was sufficient, but supernatural knowledge? They were still far behind.Let’s see who ends up begging whom.He also had his eyes on the potential profits from Lakeside’s 6,000 residents!Pushing Lakeside’s concerns aside, Memphis slipped the radio into the holster on his waist and casually returned to the central meeting room.There, a fierce battle was underway over the distribution of resources."This tier-three Fire Blade skill book should belong to Squad 7.

He clung to this reasoning to unravel the subsequent consequences."Did their leader deliberately avoid implementing a division strategy?""Or rather, were there individuals who didn’t want this battle to be won and instead wanted to let the Dawn Light horde grow stronger?""If the Dawn Light zombie horde grows stronger and successfully absorbs rare resources, who benefits?

    The Manipulation Type’s greatest strength wasn’t in its attacks but in its mastery of "manipulation." Born from within a zombie’s womb, it grew by drinking their blood, living among them from infancy to maturity. Its abilities were entirely reliant on other zombies, making its connection to the horde unparalleled. How could an outsider hope to defeat it in a battle of "instinct manipulation"?However, Big Black Dog was far from done—it hadn’t yet exhausted its stamina. After letting out a dissatisfied whimper, it tilted its head back and howled mournfully once more."Hooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwl..."The wild sound pierced the sky, spreading across the battlefield. Dozens of zombies standing within the crimson barrier sprouted fur and transformed into half-dogs, once again launching into frenzied attacks against their "enemies."Not only that, alongside Big Black Dog, another dog was summoned, then another, until there were three black dogs howling in unison. Their piercing cries caused the hu

    The silver moon transformed into a Blood Moon, its pristine radiance replaced by a sorrowful crimson glow. Chaotic, terrifying energy erupted outward, and even the surrounding ground began sprouting patches of black fur.With the Blood Moon formed, Big Black Dog grew even wearier. Without hesitation, it hurled the glowing orb toward the zombie horde. The three-meter-wide Blood Moon shot through the air, covering hundreds of meters before bursting with a muffled explosion.The detonation didn’t cause massive destruction or even a shockwave. Yet Memphis, watching from afar, shivered involuntarily. His first-tier Danger Sense sent a wave of terror through him, nearly making him wet his pants.The shattered Blood Moon resembled a spilled bucket of red paint. Its crimson glow cascaded over the battlefield, covering a 400-meter radius and enveloping the advancing zombies entirely.Big Black Dog stood tall and imposing, its massive frame supported by sturdy legs. It tilted its dark snout upw

    Yet, the battle was far from over. Over 200 evolved zombies, though temporarily repelled, had survived the onslaught. They quickly regrouped and surged toward the frontline, determined to annihilate every human in their path.Jarred, in his Giant Power Transformation state, stood at Trench No. 5, continuously throwing punches. Each second, he unleashed dozens of air cannon strikes with over 60 power points per hit, turning the areas around Trenches 4, 5, and 6 into a chaotic battlefield.The invisible, wide-reaching air cannons wreaked havoc. Strength Types could shrug them off, but Speed Types were sent tumbling, their bodies dented and thrown several meters back. The attack was absurdly powerful.With Sonic Positioning aiding him, Jarred’s air cannon strikes became increasingly precise. Dozens of Speed Type zombies were locked onto as targets. A detailed map of the battlefield unfolded in his mind, rendering smoke and debris irrelevant. Even a fly daring to show itself would be blas

    On both sides of the battlefield, four 12.7mm heavy machine guns roared to life, spraying a storm of bullets southward and sweeping through the 200-meter expanse. Alongside this, over a dozen PG-2HEAT rounds were fired, and dozens of 7.62mm barrels glowed red-hot as they rained destruction on zombies of all sizes across the ten trench lines.The 40,000 rounds of 12.7mm ammunition scavenged from Lakeside included 10,000 brought to this battle—enough to fire freely. The outdated PG-2HEAT rounds, with over 500 still in stock, could afford to lose 20% without hesitation.Thousands of low-tier zombies at the front were felled like wheat under the intense kinetic energy of the high-powered weaponry. Meanwhile, over 200 evolved zombies, protected by Strength Types, pushed through the hail of bullets, gradually advancing. The Strength Types' massive, hardened arms provided cover, deflecting even 12.7mm rounds momentarily. Behind them, Speed Types moved unscathed, taking full advantage of this

    Three squad leaders were jointly responsible for the operation against the P2. Among them, Osiris reacted the fastest. Gritting his teeth, he unleashed a burst of Vital Qi, targeting the F2-level 25 and enveloping both it and the unfortunate teammate who hadn’t yet managed to scatter.Osiris's third-tier +1 Vital Qi was a highly potent control skill. Against a horde of low-level zombies, it could draw dozens or even hundreds into its center, crushing them into a pulpy sphere. At this moment, both the F2-level 25 and the trapped teammate were caught in the skill’s zone of effect, pulled into the center of the Vital Qi field."Aaaaaaa!"The trapped teammate let out gut-wrenching screams, his body contorting impossibly under the crushing pressure of the Vital Qi. His bones shattered audibly, while the F2, leveraging its strength and agility, curled up to resist the compression. Yet its claws still lashed out with eerie precision, decapitating the screaming human beside it.To prevent the
