As soon as the flathrowers started spewing out rivers of fire, Vespa’s water hissed and boiled on contact...
The fuel used here was also upgraded, and because of that, her body imdiately started thrashing while also lting the zombie minions she brought with her.
"Stormbreaker, railgun—again! Aim for the skull!"
With this order, there was a thunderclap that followed...
It was the railgun’s second shot that slamd into Ken’s right shoulder, dislocating his massive arm and sending the cleaver tumbling away.
"Rooaar!"
That attack may not have ended Ken’s life, but it was definitely a huge problem for him. After all, without his arm, he wouldn’t be able to use his strongest moves against the Skeleton King or the Mummy Lord... It would not be easy to face them head-on because of this!
Still, the two Zombie Lords were alive.
As long as they had their Lord’s Core in their bodies, they could continue with the battle, and their wounds would be healed. It was an ability they all relied on to deal with the Survivors with mystical abilities.
Ken groaned as he slamd his mutilated fist into the ground.
With a growl, dozens of skinned zombies burst from beneath the earth. It was his personal minions. They surged toward the vehicles, hoping to stop their assault.
However, Ibrahim would not let that happen.
"Defensive line—tighten up!" Ibrahim ordered. "APCs, deploy infantry! Hold this line!"
Titan-Class APC hatches burst open, and trained soldiers poured out.
They were carrying shields and rifles, and used tactical formations as they locked into place.
Each soldier fired in a rhythm... They were covering the recon bikes and suppressing the small zombie horde.
"Die!"
"Aim at their heads! Don’t waste your ammo!"
"Yes, Sir!"
anwhile, Vespa’s body twisted unnaturally, reshaping into a massive form like that of an octopus...
She then created spectral tentacles that seed to be made of spirits...
Soon, she started moving, hoping to destroy the Stormbreaker and the other vehicles.
But it won’t be easy since Asad is still active. Furthermore, the soldiers here were trained by Lukas.
There was no doubt about their discipline and capabilities to handle the pressure.
"Target the tentacles!" yelled the gunner. "We will be dragged if that thing catches us! Focus fire!"
"Switch to dispersal rounds!" Ibrahim finally shouted after analyzing the weight, size, and speed of those tentacles.
Suddenly, as the tentacles got closer, the Stormbreaker’s underbody pods opened, launching concussive shock mines—they detonated in sequence, severing the tentacle and knocking Vespa back.
And then, Asad struck.
Though he was already tired, he summoned the last of his recovered energy.
With his help, his Mummy Lord cast a Blight Nova, consuming a circle of the undead in a powerful blast that withered all its targets.
After that, the Skeleton King bashed Ken back with a mighty overhead swing, and the Wraith Queen shrieked into Vespa’s mind, disrupting her focus.
They were all working together to deal with the Zombie Lord!
However, they were still the strongest Zombies...
Their coordination wasn’t enough to kill them, but it opened a window.
"Now, kill them!" Asad signaled as he confird that the cores of the Zombie Lords were now visible! It ans that their defenses had weakened significantly.
"FIRE EVERYTHING!" He shouted.
The final barrage began.
The Hellfire’s turret already started glowing red-hot as it unleashed its rounds continuously.
From Asad’s point of view, he could see an incendiary hurricane of fla, lead bullets, and plasma rounds destroying the Zombie Lords.
Soon, the Stormbreaker Tank charged one last shot...
Boom!
As the last projectile was released, its barrel split... Then, it unleashed what seed like a beam that cut through Ken’s side, severing muscle and bone, nearly splitting him in half!
Ken scread as it definitely felt like it was dying!
Then, his body spasd wildly before he fell to the ground.
Thud!
At this point, Vespa was also burned and broken. It tried to retreat into the spectral waters it created—only for the Wraith Queen to surge forward and tear out her heart-like core, disrupting her escape... Then, the Wraith Queen used all of its energy and detonated itself with Vespa’s body...
Boom!
Smoke filled the valley. There were also flas everywhere due to the Flathrowers.
Still, all the zombie bodies were either charred or torn as they littered the ground.
And in the center, Asad stood. He was already exhausted.
Then, as he confird that the system notification that he eliminated Vespa, he couldn’t help but celebrate...
"Wait... Ken the Skinner is still alive! Be careful!" Ibrahim shouted from atop the ridge.
A deep groan then rumbled through the smoke.
From the pile of flesh, sothing moved.
It was Ken the Skinner.
However, this ti, it was a smaller version of him!
Seeing this, they couldn’t help but recall the Flesh Puker Zombie. This Zombie was rare but it was known for its strange ability, which was having a second copy of itself inside its body.
No, to be exact, its external body seed to be just its armor...
"It’s still injured..." Asad muttered.
He had gotten smaller, but still, half of his torso was torn open, his right arm seed to be entirely obliterated, and there was even so black fluid dripping from exposed ribs.
Yet, despite the damage, his core that was connected to his chest was still filled with energy.
Indeed, the core was exposed and deliberated at the center of his chest.
"You think... you’ve won?"
Ken said as he looked at his enemies.
His left hand gripped a bone club while slowly gathering his energy... Then, he created a faint shield or armor around his body.
It didn’t end there. From the soil he was standing on, more Zombies began to rise!
"I am the Skinner Lord... I won’t die... not here!"
Ibrahim’s eyes narrowed.
He then looked at the Stormbreaker Tank. Its railgun barrel had already cracked and was smoldering.
The Hellfire Truck’s turret, on the other hand, had also stopped spinning due to overheating. Their ammunition was also low.
Still, Ibrahim wasn’t panicking...
