"Alright. Per the plan, spread out. Half of you, dismount and proceed on foot," Fang Tianhe ordered.
Their biggest worry right now was an ambush from the Wild Wolf rcenary Corps.
Although the equipnt provided by the military included a military radar—a tool that would leave any other rcenary corps completely exposed.
The problem was, the Wild Wolf rcenary Corps had the backing of the Morgan Conglorate. If they had also been supplied with advanced shielding devices, it was anyone’s guess whether the military radar could even detect them.
If they failed to detect an ambush and were hit by sothing like a missile, their armored vehicles would beco giant iron coffins.
Therefore, to avoid this, spreading out the team as much as possible was the best option. Even if they were ambushed, they wouldn’t be wiped out in one fell swoop.
Of course, spreading out wasn’t without its own problems. The most significant drawback was a drastic reduction in their ability to fend off zombie hordes.
The rcenaries on foot, in particular, would be extrely vulnerable without the protection of the vehicles.
With the old Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps, Fang Tianhe would have kept everyone inside the armored vehicles, even if it ant taking a risk.
But the Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps was different now. And that difference, of course, was Lin Xinghai.
Lin Xinghai stood atop the lead armored vehicle. By his logic, if he simply took care of all the zombies up ahead, the rcenaries following behind would be perfectly safe.
The thod was simple to the extre, yet also difficult to the extre.
If anyone other than Lin Xinghai himself had proposed this during the planning stage, Fang Tianhe wouldn’t have dared to even consider it.
’One man against all the zombies? What kind of joke is that?’
But whenever he recalled the video of Lin Xinghai taking on a Mutated Zombie solo, he had to remind himself that normal standards didn’t apply to anything involving Lin Xinghai.
"These zombies up ahead... you can really handle them all by yourself?" Roger asked, unable to stop himself as he stood beside Lin Xinghai, watching the approaching horde.
"Relax! How many tis have you asked that? Seriously, when did you get so naggy?" Lin Xinghai couldn’t help but jab back.
A vein throbbed on Roger’s forehead, but he said nothing, silently reloading ammunition to the side.
That’s right. His main purpose up here was to reload for Lin Xinghai.
Beyond that, he was also there to pick up any slack. If Lin Xinghai ran into trouble, Roger’s own Gun Technique would be enough to lend a hand.
Lin Xinghai gave the two Tearing Rifles in his hands a final check, then glanced back at the rcenaries advancing on foot. The expressions on many of their faces were filled with doubt.
Their orders were simple: just pick up Elental Crystals. All combat was to be handled by Lin Xinghai. It was impossible for them not to feel so doubt about such a command.
Lin Xinghai said nothing in response. Facts are always more persuasive than explanations.
He turned his gaze back to the zombie horde rushing toward their convoy.
The number of zombies in the city was nothing like in Qingtang Town. The roar of a single zombie would attract the attention of its entire horde.
And the roar of an entire horde would, in turn, draw in other hordes from even farther away.
In other words, the zombie assault would co in wave after wave.
Within his line of sight alone, five distinct hordes were already charging toward the convoy.
But Lin Xinghai showed no signs of tension. In fact, a hint of anticipation flickered in his eyes. ’A horde this dense is the perfect opportunity to test the true destructive power of my current Gun Technique.’
Soon, the first wave of zombies closed to within 200 ters of the convoy.
The instant they were in range, Lin Xinghai raised his rifles and opened fire.
BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG!
The gunshots rang out in a steady rhythm, like a symphony of death.
Of the 30-so zombies charging forward, it didn’t matter if they were Ordinary or Interdiate Zombies. Once Lin Xinghai’s muzzle was pointed at them, no amount of dodging could save them from a bullet to the head.
In the end, none of the 30-plus zombies made it within 150 ters of the convoy before they were all dead on the ground.
The mbers of the Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps were still reeling from the annihilation of the first wave when the second wave charged in.
This second wave numbered over 50, and more importantly, it included two High Level Zombies.
A horde of this size was already a considerable threat to a rcenary corps.
A weaker First Level rcenary Corps, like the Mountain and Sea rcenary Corps, would even need to deploy a cha to handle it.
But to Lin Xinghai, it was nothing special. The mont they entered the Tearing Rifle’s effective range, he began firing without hesitation.
The zombies at the front fell in swathes, cut down like wheat. After half the horde was eliminated, the two High Level Zombies mixed within finally revealed themselves.
While the Tearing Rifle in his left hand continued its relentless fire, his right hand picked up another Tearing Rifle from his side, this one loaded with Armor-Piercing Bullets.
He raised the rifle, fired two quick shots, and took down both High Level Zombies. Then he switched back to his other weapon and continued firing.
It was all so simple, so fast. The two High Level Zombies might as well have been ordinary ones; they were killed without causing the slightest ripple.
Lin Xinghai’s rate of fire didn’t even change.
Soon, the remaining zombies were gunned down one by one. The closest one had only managed to get within a full 130 ters of the convoy.
GULP!
Roger swallowed hard. He had previously imagined that Lin Xinghai might get careless and run into various problems, requiring him to step in and help.
But this scene made his cheeks burn. ’Good thing I kept my thoughts to myself,’ he mused. ’I’m not sure I could even hit an Ordinary Zombie from 130 ters.’
anwhile, as the other mbers of the Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps ca to their senses, their reactions varied from shock and gasps of astonishnt to sheer bewildernt.
It was no exaggeration to say that what they had just witnessed was a massive shock to their entire worldview.
’Fifty zombies, annihilated from over 130 ters away... Even if the entire Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps charged in, they couldn’t have done that!’
Their Gun Technique simply wasn’t good enough.
Even ignoring the distance, in terms of sheer speed, Lin Xinghai was killing zombies almost as fast as their entire rcenary Corps combined.
More importantly, every single shot from Lin Xinghai was a headshot. He didn’t waste a single bullet.
All of this led to one conclusion: Lin Xinghai’s solo zombie-hunting efficiency actually surpassed that of the entire Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps.
