"You all stay here, I’ll go check things out myself!"
Zhang Su couldn’t sit still anymore. He decided to find a high place to see how the Cyan Dragon Corps was doing.
"Brother Su, don’t go, it’s too dangerous!"
Qi Xiaoshuai quickly voiced his opposition.
"Yeah, the fighting is intense now. It’s not worth watching. Wait until things quiet down!" Zheng Xinyu held onto Zhang Su.
"A gentleman does not stand under a perilous wall, Mr. Zhang, be cautious!" Yuwen also looked at Zhang Su with an anxious expression.
He knew the importance of intelligence, but the leader’s safety was even more crucial!
Faced with everyone’s persuasion, Zhang Su smacked his lips, glanced around, pointed to a location, and said, "I’m not going to the barracks, just to the top floor of Huahui Mall to take a look. Don’t worry, I’m not foolish... Anyone bored can co with ."
After saying that, his heart skipped a beat because the words ’Huahui Mall’ were hidden in the night, and he just blurted it out. Luckily, everyone was quite stirred up and didn’t notice this detail...
"Brother Su, wait for , I’m going!"
Lu Yubo had been feeling restless for a long ti. Hearing he could go watch, he was quite eager.
"I’m going too..."
"And ."
Four or five people quickly followed.
As they moved through the streets towards the mall, perhaps the loud cannon fire drew out the zombies hiding inside, around twenty of them were slowly heading outside.
Upon encounter, Zhang Su and his crew naturally didn’t hold back, battling as they retreated, stabbing and killing all the zombies.
"Ha, buddy, we also indirectly helped Cyan Dragon Corps get rid of so zombies, didn’t we?"
Zhao Dezhu grinned and said.
"Yeah, they’ll bless you from heaven..."
Zhang Su hung the steel rod back on his waist, stepped into the mall, and shone his flashlight around. It was the sa chaotic scene inside as in Qin City’s large malls.
"Stick close to , Old Liu might be stuck sowhere unable to get out, don’t wander!"
After giving instructions, Zhang Su led the way.
"Hey, it’s really damn clean in here."
Through the second-floor clothing section, the flashlight revealed the shops were spotless, with naked mannequins lying within broken glass displays, looking sowhat eerie.
"Duh, this place is so close to Cyan Dragon Corps. Would you leave anything behind?"
"Hey, there’s so stuff here, co quickly..."
Lu Yubo looked around, spotting so unopened thermal underwear on the ground, imdiately called everyone over, and stuffed it into his bag.
Picking up gear along the way, they soon reached the rooftop.
Zhang Su eagerly looked towards the Cyan Dragon Corps direction; it had taken almost fifteen minutes from the parking spot to the rooftop, and the Cyan Dragon Corps had lost ten more people. He wanted to understand why the casualties were mounting so rapidly!
"Damn, the Cyan Dragon Corps is dood!"
Without even using binoculars, Zhang Su saw the direction lit by flas, shocked and shaken.
"What’s wrong, Brother Su?" Lu Yubo asked curiously.
Zhang Su picked up the binoculars. After double magnifying, the camp two kiloters away seed to be just thirty or forty ters ahead, the battle scene captured in the field of view, and surprisingly, it couldn’t encompass all the zombies!
Countless zombies appeared in dense streams, piled outside the walls, giving an overwhelming feeling!
"A hundred thousand!"
"What?"
"I said this zombie horde might be about a hundred thousand strong!"
"Gasp..."
Upon hearing Zhang Su’s assessnt, everyone instinctively drew a cold breath, feeling their chests chilled.
A hundred thousand, this was just a cold number, but when faced with such a number of zombies, ordinary people might lose the courage to even pick up a weapon and fight.
He wasn’t sure why the Cyan Dragon Corps hadn’t lured away a portion in advance, or if this was already after luring so away...
If it’s just a large number, they could still use various fortifications to kill them, since the corps had abundant firepower, bullets, and shells. But if the zombies were set afla...
It was visible that a large group of zombies were lit by fierce fire, with shadowy figures madly dancing in the flas.
Bodies of burning zombies climbed over their peers relentlessly, forming a flaming zombie staircase that jittered constantly, seemingly about to collapse at any mont but remained stable.
The fortified walls flickered with gunfire, the machine guns’ barrels were reddened and smoking, struggling to hold back the zombie impact!
While watching through the binoculars, Zhang Su saw, before an abandoned machine gun, twenty or more zombie corpses piled up, then only needed a montary reload, promptly followed by several flaming zombies crashing onto the walls. Simultaneously, another figure popped into his mind...
Just when he thought a breach was about to occur, and the wall defenses would collapse, soone with a rifle took position at the machine gun slot, once more standing robustly on the wall.
Zhang Su put down the binoculars, seeing those beside him waiting for his recount. He shook his head, saying, "Cyan Dragon Corps is dood, the zombies are burning over a large area!"
"That burning area, those are all zombies, right?"
Zhao Dezhu pointed into the distance with a serious look.
Others also showed grave expressions.
Those who had seen how formidable the flaming zombies were couldn’t help but feel fear.
Everyone knew that once zombies catch fire, they wouldn’t take long to die. Yet the process from ignition to death could inflict unimaginable damage on humans!
Now, as the flas hadn’t spread completely, the zombies at the back dispersed towards both sides. From the numbers, they would surely encircle the camp’s south, north, and west sides. With the remaining forces from Cyan Dragon Corps, it would be challenging to resist...
"Brother Su, what do you think, should we take advantage of the chaos?"
Lu Yubo’s face bore a stern coldness.
No one felt this was excessive; this was the apocalypse, not a peaceful world run by politics.
Zhang Su slowly shook his head: "There’s no need for us to make a move; I’m afraid Cyan Dragon Corps won’t survive this ordeal!"
Others could only catch a glimpse, but he was quite clear that as the fire spread, more zombies would be ignited. By then, the surviving mbers of Cyan Dragon Corps wouldn’t be enough to kill!
If Cyan Dragon Corps didn’t reveal any trump cards, then their demise was just a matter of ti.
"Really?"
Lu Yubo was skeptical, hoping to personally participate in the siege of Cyan Dragon Corps, rather than leaving it entirely to the zombies.
"Drones! Drones are deployed..."
Zhang Su saw five or six drones flying from the camp, hovering above the zombie horde. Two drones dropped bombs, explosions erupted in the horde like blossoms on the ground.
The remaining drones circled and danced in the air, seemingly busy with sothing, appearing like a clumsy light show for the zombies. After the explosions, the drones returned to the camp, possibly preparing for a second attack.
He handed the binoculars to those beside him, saying, "Take turns looking; in the future, pay attention to fire when dealing with zombies. Burning zombies are indeed too strong!"
Unless the thermal weaponry was strong enough to annihilate all invading zombies, don’t rashly use them. Once the horde is ignited, it will lead to mutual destruction.
As for Celestial Horse Island, utilizing its geographic advantage with deep defenses, even confronting five thousand or even eight thousand zombies, they could slowly drain them away. But just a thousand burning zombies could breach the defenses!
