CHAPTER 1645: CHAPTER 1639: CORPSE TIDE PURIFICATION

...Roar!

The bloodthirsty and frenzied zombie roar suddenly burst out like a heap of dynamite, ready to explode. Zombies all around raised their heads and let out horrifying sounds, so loud that it instantly drowned out the shooting noise of soldiers’ laser weapons!

The zombies stopped moving slowly; the high-level zombies began to accelerate, and the low-level zombies in front had bad luck, getting knocked over or crushed into pulp!

"Hey!"

"Hey brother!"

A hand suddenly tapped on his shoulder, and Ghost Head turned with a puzzled look toward Brother Shi, who had patted him.

"What’s up?"

"Got something for you." Brother Shi gestured with his thumb behind him, and Ghost Head looked over to see the square-faced soldier holding something meant for him. He realized his attention had been so fixated on the zombie horde that he hadn’t noticed he was being called earlier.

"What’s that?"

Ghost Head accepted the item the square-faced soldier handed over. It was elliptical in shape, with a button at the top. There’s no need to guess; this must be something like a grenade. And Brother Shi also had one in his hand, with other soldiers around passing similar grenades among themselves...

To Ghost Head’s confusion, the square-faced soldier smiled and replied, "This thing is called Destroyer."

"Destroyer? That name doesn’t sound very pleasant."

"Heh, it’s kinda for suicide. Our chances of surviving this are about as slim as winning five million before the Apocalypse... Anyways, don’t underestimate its power; however unimpressive it looks, once it explodes, even a Level 7 zombie can’t withstand it!"

"You mean..." Hearing the square-faced soldier’s words, Ghost Head understood.

"If things get out of hand later, we can run, but if we can’t escape, we will use this thing to go down with the zombies."

"Huh? Run if you can’t win..."

The square-faced soldier’s words made Ghost Head and Brother Shi hesitate because they had just returned as deserters. The idea of soon becoming deserters again seemed a bit unjustifiable.

"It’s okay, it’s been tacitly approved above. You heard Four-Eyed One clearly just now, we’re not just going to die; if we can escape, we should try to."

"True... Yeah..."

Ghost Head chuckled, regained his focus, and continued shooting at the zombie horde. He held the jittery Tianguang tightly with one hand due to recoil while his other hand held the Destroyer. He looked down at it, shook his head, and carefully pinned it to his waist.

If he couldn’t escape, using this to go down with those high-level zombies seemed like a decent choice.

However... What would the experience of dying be like...

Watching the zombie horde advancing endlessly, Ghost Head’s gaze became dazed for a moment, then the drone "whoosh" quickly swooped by his eyes, bringing him back to attention.

Several drones hovered in the air, unable to provide any help to the soldiers in this battle. Their purpose was to record everyone’s brave stand against the Zombie King, capturing everything on camera to show the world an attitude.

As the zombie horde began to rage, the high-level zombies accelerated in the rear, and the corpses piled in front were quickly knocked away by those extravagantly large evolved zombies. Roaring like fierce beasts, they charged towards the barricade with both bloodlust and madness that wild beasts lack!

Faced with this vast zombie horde, those iron fences had no resistance capability, trampled instantly and shattered, this steel city that stood tall for over ten years in the Apocalypse brought out all its bottom line; countless missiles launched like a child’s skyrockets during New Year, one after another soaring into the sky, their explosive power twisting the air, lifting a wild wind carrying yellow dust skyward, obscuring the blue sky, white clouds, and the slightly chilly sun.

Although the zombies in the front row of the horde kept falling under the soldiers’ fierce shooting, they still moved too quickly compared to the advance, soon occupying most of the barren ground like a tide of zombies!

"Come on!"

The frenzy of the zombie horde made soldiers’ adrenaline rise; for a moment they forgot fear and began roaring too, violently unleashing torrents of blooming laser towards the advancing horde below!

The northwest skies turned more and more purple, the ground’s color largely overtaken by the zombie horde’s purplish-black. Soldiers on the wall gritted their teeth, laser beams flashing wildly from the muzzles, at this moment they seemed to hold the Tianguang’s grip with all their might, rapidly changing energy clips, each wishing they could become an energy clip themselves inserted into the intake, thus the soldiers’ distance from the horde was covered by lasers, practically overwhelming!

Yet the fact proves, that in the face of some irresistible disasters, no matter how hard humans try, the result cannot be altered. Despite the soldiers’ fierce firepower on the barricade, the horde still visibly reduced distance constantly! Continuously! As the low-level zombies at the front were all killed, dealing with the zombies further back became increasingly strenuous!

"The horde is purifying..."

Until the last Level 3 zombie collapsed powerlessly to the ground, an officer finally realized the zombie horde’s numbers were too vast, Sanctuary City couldn’t determine the horde’s scale, the only certainty was that this horde facing them was only bigger not smaller!

And if the scale is too big, those high-level zombies... might be hard to manage as well...

The horde started like the spectacle of wheat cutting, gradually becoming that any random zombie could withstand and advance through a downpour of laser without stopping, yet the horde still seemed boundless!

Even during long-range shooting, soldiers still felt strained, as if their weapons became one with them, some mentally fragile soldiers even started panicking.

"What do we do?"

Someone sought reassurance from a comrade nearby, but the response was that the other was also clueless with slightly irritable "Relish it"!

With high-level zombies blocking soldiers’ firepower in front, the advance speed of the horde quickened, chaos appeared on the wall but quickly calmed, then numerous Level 6 New Human Officers took up weapons, turning up to the power they could endure, blasting towards the horde! With Level 6 New Humans joining the fight, a remarkable killing effect was achieved, but for the horde, it still seemed slightly insignificant!

The horde turned chaotic, higher-level zombies in the back rapidly overtaking those ahead, roaring to the front, with astonishing defense they continued advancing despite facing the Level 6 New Humans’ Tianguang set to 3.0 power!
