Base.
The once hope-filled stronghold has now beco a wasteland, surrounded by fragnts of bodies. Amidst the rumbling of collapsed buildings, faint sounds arise, yet no one steps forward to offer aid. Everyone is in combat readiness, even won and children are involved in the battle.
Outside the crumbling city walls, zombies emitting a foul stench drag their decaying bodies forward. These mindless monsters have only one thought upon entering here: slaughter!
Industrial Zone.
This is the only relatively intact area of the base.
Behind it lies the base's wall. Breach it, and the entire East Bridge will imdiately fall under the claws of the zombies. It's not only the last shelter of the base but also the sole checkpoint in East Bridge.
The Iron Demon Army stands nacingly at the front, with surviving citizens behind them. Even the most timid individuals now have a weapon in hand, be it a hamr, a shovel, or even a brick. Although not very effective, it offers so solace.
Most people perished in the mouths of zombies.
They too were once humans. But when the apocalypse struck, they embraced the Necromancer's grasp, becoming a horde of mindless undead.
Among the Iron Demon Army, Xu Hongzhuang prominently stands.
She dons black armor, her expression unusually stern. Despite being a woman, her presence exudes the courageous aura of holding a pass against thousands.
Xu Hongzhuang has received specialized combat training since childhood. Battling her way through the apocalypse, her understanding of combat has long surpassed normal imagination.
Moreover, she possesses a hero template, with an extraordinary recovery rate for wounds. A deep sword wound can fully heal in a week if adequately rested.
Martial God.
Xu Hongzhuang lives up to this title. She arrived here in half a day, imdiately engaging in a sensational battle. She hasn't blinked for over twenty hours.
And this proves how perilous the situation is. If Xu Hongzhuang hadn't reached the Silver Peak with strong willpower, she would have passed out amidst the intense combat and fatigue.
Death looms over the people.
This battle exceeded everyone's expectations. Zombies surged like a tide, oppressively overwhelming. The base stood like a reef in water, endlessly pounded by the waves.
The number of zombies is increasing. Besides those continuously arriving from West Bridge, the infected within the city are slowly reawakening under the effect of the corpse poison.
The industrial zone is already surrounded. Zombies are piling up from all directions, forming a corpse wall several ters high, trying to breach the industrial zone from within.
"Boom!"
Like a sudden thunderclap, the corpse wall explodes into a massive blood mist, scattering countless limbs and decayed blood in all directions.
A giant cannon barrel is fastened to the rooftop by dozens of chains, its muzzle still emitting imnse heat waves.
At this mont, a phantom of a monster swirls above the cannon, resembling smoke, as if a gust of wind could disperse it.
Magic Crystal Cannon.
This is Tian Xuefeng's pinnacle creation. Every cannon barrel is sealed with the soul of a mutant creature.
The combination of gunpowder and soul power unleashes a shot capable of blasting hundreds of ordinary zombies into fragnts. However, these shells can only be fired three tis before the Power of the Soul dissipates. To regain that strength, a new monster must be captured and its soul sealed within.
If anything in this world epitomizes a fearless existence, zombies undoubtedly hold the top position.
Hundreds of zombies reduced to ashes did not incite the slightest dread in the others. Instead, stained with decayed blood, they beca even more ferocious. After a brief pause, they reorganized, attempting to climb the tall building.
The sound of trampling echoes from afar, accompanied by a heavy stench of corpses. Three giant zombies slowly approach from the distance.
Giant Zombies.
Standing three ters tall, with severely decomposed bodies, their faces are unrecognizable. On their terrifying, grotesque arms, large clusters of maggots crawl, freely moving through their bodies.
Giant Zombies have blood-red eyes, as if a sea of blood churned within. From the mont they appeared, ruthless slaughter engulfed the zombie horde.
Decayed blood and limbs splatter everywhere!
The zombies, unaware of what happened, were suddenly overturned, then fell to the ground in shattered pieces.
The originally pale blue bodies of the Giant Zombies, after absorbing large amounts of blood, slowly turned red, a faint aura spreading over their bodies, gradually enveloping the other zombies.
Curse Aura.
This energy, gained by brutally killing their own kind, caused ordinary zombies to go into a frenzy, each one roaring with their already damaged vocal cords, launching a mad attack on the industrial zone.
Rumble!
The silent sound of trampling echoed across the ground.
Xu Hongzhuang observed all of this.
She understood clearly that she had to do sothing, for as long as the giant zombie existed, the other zombies would be bewitched by it, becoming ferocious and bloodthirsty.
Without further hesitation, Xu Hongzhuang took a step forward.
In stark contrast to the terrifying zombies was the appearance of Xu Hongzhuang; she stood there like a hero in a fairy tale saving a kingdom. Faced with disaster and slaughter, she did not retreat but bravely stepped forward.
"You damned bastards!"
Xu Hongzhuang gritted her teeth, her voice rising before she suddenly stomped her foot, her whole body rushing down like a colorful phoenix.
— Martial Soul!
Amidst the slaughter, Xu Hongzhuang descended from the sky, her palm instantly igniting with a burst of green flas. Imdiately, the flas transford into a sharp long knife, and the blade slashed down towards the giant zombie's head. Everything happened in a flash, and the giant zombie was completely unprepared as half of its head was chopped off.
— Great Tornado!
Confronting the zombies swarming towards her, there was no fear on Xu Hongzhuang's face. She lowered her body, horizontally holding her knife, and began spinning wildly. A piercing sound of slicing flesh filled the air, as a fierce Sword Qi poured out in all directions, and the nearby zombies were all cut in half, no longer savage as they once were.
Ordinary zombies suffered heavy casualties.
The power of the Silver Peak is indeed extraordinary. With one move, she slew a giant zombie and dispersed the nearby zombies.
Xu Hongzhuang is a Martial Dao prodigy; in this period of intensive study, she has already developed so fierce techniques like the Great Tornado. Although the na is ordinary, its destructive power is astonishing, able to slaughter everything around in an instant.
Splendor is not what Xu Hongzhuang is about.
This girl, who bears a beautiful na, prefers the quickest and most effective thods to kill her enemies.
The other two giant zombies noticed Xu Hongzhuang. They took steps forward and raised their fist-like stone pillars, hamring towards Xu Hongzhuang.
— Swallow Return!
Xu Hongzhuang's pupils contracted, she stepped hard on the ground and leaped backwards. At the sa mont, she swung her blade, striking the giant zombie's arm. The power of just one strike severed the giant zombie's arm completely, and the Sword Qi then blasted onto its chest, nearly cutting it in half. Though it could still move, it had lost its imposing threat.
"A bunch of rotten corpses."
"Even if you've gained strength, you lack human thought and reaction."
But that wasn't the end. Having dealt with two giant zombies, Xu Hongzhuang didn't intend to stop; with a primal growl, she bent forward like a leopard running through the forest, her speed transforming once more.
— Wind Blade.
As she approached the last giant zombie, Xu Hongzhuang drew her long knife, slashing it upwards into the air. In an instant, a violent whirlwind ford around, completely enveloping the giant zombie. Centered on its body, countless wind blades ravaged it, slicing away its flesh and leaving only a stark white skeleton in just seconds.
Having slain three mutant zombies, Xu Hongzhuang's aura was incredibly intimidating, with a blood-red mist swirling around her, as conspicuous as a wolf's smoke signal.
"Pssch!"
The sharp long knife swung out for the umpteenth ti, creating a vacuum zone five ters ahead where any zombie approaching was sliced in two.
"Ooooo…"
Xu Hongzhuang's ferocity did not instill fear in the zombies. Their bloodthirsty will had long replaced useless fear. The heavy footsteps continued to trample on the ground, pressing forward with no intention to stop.
To these zombies, they had long experienced the feeling of death.
Xu Hongzhuang panted heavily, a bead of sweat trickling down her forehead.
This battle was far from as simple as imagined...
