CHAPTER 68: CHAPTER 68: PERFECT UPGRADE LOCATION

After breakfast, Lin Yi decided to go out for some fresh air and scavenge for supplies.

At this time, Louis had upgraded a motorcycle again—

The Triumph Rocket 3, super upgraded version!

Lin Yi wasn’t a motorcycle fanatic, but the moment he saw this bike, he was instantly captivated by it.

This was a super cool heavy bike, equipped with a three-cylinder engine, with a maximum horsepower of 182.2, and it ran almost silently.

On the bike’s handlebar, there was a special button that, when pressed, would eject sharp long blades from both sides of the bike.

The blades were razor-sharp, gleaming with a cold light, making it easy to cut off any zombie’s leg that blocked the path of this steel war machine.

Previously, Lin Yi had saved a group’s leader—Blaise, in an apartment.

As Blaise frequently changed his base, he informed Lin Yi of a lot of intel about this city, including places that hadn’t seen the formation of large zombie groups.

These places often meant more buildings could be scavenged, thus gaining shelter experience!

Lin Yi bought a detailed map of the entire city from the Scar-faced Leader, which marked various establishments such as stores and company offices, and also included relevant descriptions.

Currently, he was speeding towards an area without large zombie groups, heading to a gardening supply store.

The motorcycle roared silently, like an agile beast, easily weaving between abandoned cars and zombie hordes.

"Boss, you should turn left at the next corner." Melanie’s voice came through the earpiece.

"Got it—"

Rat-tat-tat-tat-tat!

Suddenly, the sound of machine gun fire exploded in the street like a thunderclap, clearly from a large-caliber firearm!

This was followed by explosions, with more automatic weapons firing, intertwining together.

Lin Yi slammed on the brakes of the motorcycle, carefully discerning the direction of the battle sounds.

It sounded as if the noise wasn’t nearby, clearly beyond the surveillance range of the cameras.

He listened intently for a while, then drove the Triumph Rocket 3, racing towards the street on the right.

After speeding for about three kilometers.

Lin Yi witnessed a rare battle on the streets of Paris—

A dozen military vehicles were surrounded by an endless sea of zombies!

On the military vehicles, dozens of soldiers wielded heavy machine guns, continuously spraying the zombie horde below with bullets.

The machine guns were incredibly powerful, tearing through zombies’ bodies like a hot knife through butter, with each shot able to penetrate three or four zombies at once!

The firepower of numerous assault rifles and light machine guns interwove, scattering the zombie horde.

However, the zombies came like raging tides, one wave after another, endlessly.

The convoy consisted of two armored personnel carriers in the front and back, a few jeeps equipped with machine guns and grenade launchers in the middle, and two trucks loaded with infantry.

The soldiers totaled one hundred, all well-equipped, yet the damage they inflicted on the zombies was very limited.

Among the zombie horde were many mutated zombies, some of which even Lin Yi had never seen before.

A gigantic mutated zombie, standing three meters tall, had bony protrusions on its chest and horns on its head.

Like a frenzied beast, it roared and charged, its massive arms swinging, tearing open a jeep with ease.

Seeing this, the soldiers quickly reacted, raising their assault rifles, unleashing a rain of bullets.

However, these bullets only sparked upon hitting the mutated zombie, causing no substantial harm.

Only the heavy machine guns could leave bloody wounds on its flesh, but they couldn’t be lethal.

Reluctantly, the soldiers resorted to using another larger-caliber machine gun.

As the trigger was pulled, a torrent of firepower instantly enveloped the mutated zombie, bullets tore through its body like a frenzied storm, riddling it with holes.

But by then, the convoy’s defense had begun to collapse, and the rate at which ammunition was being used was alarmingly fast...

On the battlefield, the zombie horde continued to surge like tides, making the situation increasingly grim.

"Retreat! Quick, retreat!" A soldier shouted anxiously.

Upon hearing the call, others quickly dropped their weapons and leaped into one of the trucks.

With the roar of the engine, the convoy began to accelerate forward recklessly.

To create an escape route, the soldiers deployed thermite grenades.

In an instant, massive fireballs exploded within the zombie horde, blazing fires engulfing everything around.

Yet even so, the convoy couldn’t escape its fate; two more jeeps were destroyed by the zombies in the chaos, their bodies twisted and deformed.

Eventually, some military vehicles, paying a heavy price, barely managed to escape the pursuit of the zombie horde.

But whether they could successfully return to their camp was uncertain.

For these wise mutated zombies certainly wouldn’t let go of this "delicious feast" easily.

They emitted eerie cries, commanding the zombie horde to continue the relentless pursuit of the military vehicles.

Fifteen minutes later, the smoke cleared.

Lin Yi emerged from hiding, looking at the battlefield before him, unable to contain his excitement.

"Melanie, scout this area."

"Copy that, boss!... All the zombies in this area have gone after the military vehicles, leaving only injured zombies who can’t move, including a few mutated ones."

"Excellent!" Lin Yi clapped his hands happily.

"Melanie, inform the comrades, including Solomon’s trained team, to get ready—I found a perfect spot for leveling up!"

Three minutes later.

Amidst a flash of light, Xiaochuan, Solomon, and fifty newly recruited warriors were teleported to the battlefield.

Lin Yi’s steady voice echoed in everyone’s ears.

"As you can see, there has just been a battle here, and your task is to finish off the injured zombies, ascend to Professionals, and collect their corpses."

After he finished speaking, with a wave of his hand, a notification appeared before the warriors—their job assignments.

[You have been assigned a new job]

[Transfer Assistant]

[You can now teleport non-living materials to the shelter]

Most of the warriors, upon seeing this, were gaping in shock.

They were very afraid—just yesterday, they were civilian refugees, and now they were forced to deal with zombies and collect their bodies...

Seeing Lin Yi frown, Solomon’s heart skipped a beat.

He immediately stepped forward, shouting at the still bewildered warriors: "Get in line!"

The roar was like a thunderclap, instantly bringing the warriors out of their stupor.

Soon, the fifty-man team lined up quickly.

Solomon’s face was grim, his tone serious:

Listen up! Next, we’ll distribute a one-handed sword to everyone.

Your task is to stab the zombie’s head with the sword to ensure it’s truly dead.

This is how you will ascend to Professionals!

I’m warning you, don’t lose your life due to your negligence.

If you mess up because of your foolishness, it only proves that—you’re not fit to be in my team.

Every warrior who ascends to Professional must report their skills and items to me before continuing the task of collecting zombie corpses.

Additionally, I want to emphasize one thing—never engage with mutated zombies, and if you see one, alert me immediately. Any spoils of war are also to be handed over to me.

Solomon’s intense gaze swept over the fifty warriors, his tone brooked no argument: "Get moving!"

"Yes!"

The fifty warriors responded in unison...
