Chapter 441: Sneak Attack
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Super Executioner woke up, but because of the quicksand under its feet, it couldn’t get leverage to jump over the mud wall. It could only use its strong arms to pound on the barrier in front of it, bit by bit.
“Evacuate! Everyone evacuate in an orderly manner and defend inside the capital city!”
The commanders maintained order at the scene. Since the monster only made the tall mud wall sway but didn’t break it, the thirty thousand people retreated without any panic.
The city gate shut quickly and was ordered to be completely locked.
The previous city gate was smashed into pieces by Hachikuju and was no longer built with stone, but was directly replaced with reinforced thick metal.
“Brother Zhang Mu, with the sixty thousand zombie horde and this big guy, do you think we have a chance to win?”
Hachikuju looked down at the Super Executioner slowly breaking through the last defense of the Coiled Dragon Formation and asked Zhang Mu.
If he weren’t in charge right now, he might have felt like fighting, grabbed his giant axe, and fought with the Super Executioner.
Zhang Mu looked at the Super Executioner with some doubt, “I used to think we only had a 20% chance of winning, that’s because I didn’t know Chief Zhang Yi had set up so many defense lines.
We’re not even at the city walls yet, and we’ve already lost forty percent of the enemy. Even though their main forces are still behind, remember that the defense measures in the city walls have prepared a surprise for them.
As for this big guy, I think it’s still easy to deal with, but its role has been fulfilled, successfully holding back the three hundred earth-type evolvers controlling the Coiled Dragon Formation.
Look, the zombie army has entered the Coiled Dragon Formation. It must be said that the zombie king’s brain is really sharp, coming up with a solution so quickly. Brother, take a look, it’s time to prepare the defense measures on the city walls.
Hachikuju looked into the distance with Zhang Mu and was amazed after seeing the movements of the zombie sea.
They are using the bodies of regular zombies to create a long floating bridge.
Without the confusion of the Coiled Dragon Column’s direction, the only problem is the quicksand that can trap people.
Now, they are using the bodies of some unimportant regular zombies as stepping stones, stepping on their backs. By sacrificing a few zombies sinking into the quicksand, they transport the entire zombie army from the starting point to near the city walls.
Finally, fifty-five thousand zombies passed through the quicksand area where the Coiled Dragon Formation was located!
These zombies, with their bodies in significantly better condition compared to the cannon fodders from earlier, are the absolute core of the million-strong zombie army held by the Zombie King.
After Lin Qing led three hundred earth-type evolvers in consolidating the final earth-element, they left the cover and returned with the crowd to the capital city. At this moment, they were delivering the mission with Elder Meng and Hachikuju.
After listening to Lin Qing’s brief report of the detailed process, Hachikuju nodded and said, “You will be in charge of handling the aftermath of Qingzi, following Li Chuang’s request for a grand burial.”
“Yes.”
Mentioning Li Chuang made Lin Qing’s heart sink, after nodding solemnly, he turned and left, knowing he still had others to deal with.
Watching Lin Qing’s departing figure, Hachikuju murmured to herself, “Of course, those of us who can give him a grand burial are the ones who will survive this time.”
“The zombie army knocked down and destroyed the earth wall.”
Beside her, Zhang Mu’s solemn voice drew Hachikuju’s gaze back to the battlefield once again.
The dirt wall crashed down, the zombies left the quicksand area and their speed returned to normal, rushing towards the city wall that was only 300 meters away. They charged forward in a speedy way that was astonishing.
The only good news was that the Super Executioner, due to constantly bombing the dirt wall, sank deeper and deeper into the quicksand. It ended up becoming a springboard for the little ones, roaring with anger unwillingly.
There was no way to save it, but its purpose had been fulfilled. It was mercilessly abandoned, sinking gradually into the quicksand, just a matter of time before disappearing completely.
What a grand and endless flood of zombies!
“Units, get ready!”
The commander never expected the sudden burst of speed from the zombies rushing towards the city wall. It wasn’t an isolated incident; all of them increased their speed dramatically. From being 300 meters away just a moment ago, they had already reached the corner of the city wall in an instant, trying to climb up.
However, the city had already prepared for this. The walls were coated with fuel, extremely smooth, denying them any chance to climb. The city gates were also very sturdy, connected to the wall so that the force from the zombies’ impact was shared, minimizing the pressure on the gates.
The thirty-meter-high city wall was like an insurmountable barrier.
Seeing the zombie horde trying to climb the city wall using primitive methods, Hachikuju chuckled and said, “Maybe we really underestimated the strength of these beasts. We were puzzled by the resources and manpower spent on building the city wall under Chief Zhang Yi. Yet today, it’s proving to be so useful!”
Hachikuju raised a big axe, signaling to start. Buckets of fuel were poured onto the tightly packed zombie horde under the city walls. The unique smell of the fuel excited everyone who caught a whiff.
“Fire the rockets!”
Arrows wrapped in oil-soaked cloth, lit on fire by many archers, were accurately shot into the crowded zombie horde below after hearing Hachikuju’s command.
Instantly, the fire started, turning the zombie sea into a sea of fire. It was a thrilling sight, and at this rate, it wouldn’t be long before this zombie sea of tens of thousands was completely destroyed here!
The zombie sea isn’t so scary after all!
Seeing the fire spreading and the enemy having no means to counter it, the defenders of the city all smiled with relief, thinking that the controllers of the zombie sea were not as formidable as believed.
Everyone enjoyed the agonizing cries of the zombies below. The tallest zombie ladder only reached ten meters and now seemed about to collapse, posing no threat to the city walls at all.
How could things go so smoothly?
Among the crowd exuding extreme excitement for the upcoming victory, there was only one person who remained completely calm.
That’s Zhang Mu!
He calmly concentrated to sense everything near the city wall using his mental power, inspecting carefully.
Suddenly, amidst the chaotic wails of zombies, he heard a faint and unusual sound.
“Sizzle… sizzle… sizzle…”
Over time, this sound grew louder, until finally, Zhang Mu located its source.
However, upon finding the source, Zhang Mu’s face filled with disbelief.
The sound was not coming from inside the zombie horde, but from their city gate!
He redirected all his mental focus and realized that only the zombies here, though being burned by oil, did not move at all, as if protecting something.
When he saw what these zombies were protecting, he cursed in astonishment.
“Forget it, city gate!”
It’s those creepy zombies that spit out saliva to dissolve the Executioner’s weapon!
They have already corroded a hole in the city wall, and it’s getting bigger and bigger!
The zombie sea outside that made humans drop their guard was just a show, the real threat is here.
Who knew zombies could be so cunning!
Openly repair the plank road, but sneak through the barrier.
Boom!
Just as Zhang Mu noticed, the overwhelmed giant city gate collapsed with a loud crash!
As the city gate fell, the zombies outside the city, burning with flames, rushed into Ordos City altogether!
