Chapter 198 Shocking the Entire Army: Is This a Level 5 Sidekick?
The black tide crashed against the steel reef.
A zombie horde attack involving millions of zombies is a hundred times more brutal than any simulation in a data model.
Although Liu Deshui's heavy artillery positions and the Zhenhai's naval guns had carved out death vacuums in the sea of corpses, it was nothing more than a drop in the ocean compared to the endless army of zombies.
"roar--!!"
Accompanied by a piercing screech, thousands of level 4 "Clawed Corpses," crawling on all fours and covered in bone spurs, charged up the first trench on the north slope like a swarm of black lightning bolts, braving a hail of bullets.
"ah!!"
A scream rang out instantly.
The automatic rifles in the hands of ordinary soldiers could only send up a series of sparks when they hit the bone armor of these monsters.
A clawed corpse suddenly pounced on a machine gunner, its sharp claws tearing through his bulletproof vest in an instant, causing blood to gush out.
A gap suddenly appeared in the defense line.
Fear was spreading, and it seemed that the gap was about to be torn apart into an irreparable scar by the horde of corpses that surged in afterward.
"Get out of here!!"
Just then, a thunderous shout rang out.
Three figures fell like meteors to the forefront of the battlefield, without slowing down, and crashed directly into the dense pile of corpses!
"boom--!!"
Zhou Hai, leading the charge, was the first to appear. His body wasn't engulfed in the usual orange-red flames; instead, it was covered in a chilling, bluish-green eerie fire!
The flames did not emit a violent heat wave, but they carried a destructive high temperature.
"Die!!"
Zhou Hai threw a punch.
The air was instantly distorted and burned, and a blue-green pillar of fire swept out in a fan shape.
Within a 20-meter radius ahead, dozens of clawed corpses, which were baring their fangs and claws, were instantly vaporized by the terrifying heat before they could even scream!
Not even ashes were left!
Immediately afterwards, a level 5 armored floating corpse, as large as an elephant and covered in heavy iron armor, roared and broke through the fire curtain, carrying enough kinetic energy to collapse a building, and slammed into Zhou Hai's back.
"Watch out!!" the soldiers in the trenches behind shouted in terror.
Zhou Hai didn't even turn his head.
Because a dark golden figure, like a mobile fortress, had instantly appeared behind him.
"Thump—!!!"
A dull, resounding impact shook the surrounding ground.
Zhao Ze held up a dark golden immortal shield with one hand, his feet firmly planted on the ground as if rooted to the spot.
The full-force ramming of that level 5 armored floating corpse couldn't even make him retreat half a step!
"Is that all the strength you have?"
Zhao remained expressionless and delivered a shield bash with his backhand.
"Snapped!"
The armored zombie with its incredible defense had its head smashed into its chest cavity by Zhao Zeyi's shield, like a rotten watermelon, and died instantly!
at the same time.
A red phantom appeared and disappeared on the battlefield.
Holding the Asura Blood Blade, Su Li moved so fast that she was left as a blur.
Wherever she went, whether it was a level 4 or level 5 floating corpse, or even a level 6 giant corpse that had just climbed up, a line of blood would appear on its neck.
"Hiss hiss hiss—"
ten seconds.
Just ten seconds.
Within a radius of 100 meters, hundreds of high-level zombies were all decapitated, their cuts as smooth as mirrors.
Su Li stood quietly atop the pile of corpses, her blood-stained blade untouched by blood, her cold eyes reflecting only indifference to life.
Quiet.
The trench defenses, which were on the verge of collapse, were now deathly silent.
On the command platform at the rear, Chen Yan, who was just about to lead his team down to fight the fire, suddenly found himself frozen in place with one foot in mid-air.
He stared wide-eyed at the three figures who looked like gods of death, making a gurgling sound in his throat as if an invisible hand was gripping his neck.
"This...this is level 6?!"
Chen Yan was shocked.
He asked himself honestly, if he were facing that kind of dense attack, although he could also fight his way out, he definitely couldn't have done it as easily as Zhou Hai and the other two!
"Why do I feel like... my level 7 is fake?" Chen Yan's lips twitched, and a feeling of inferiority was growing wildly in his heart.
Are these the people Lu Sheng brought out?
These are the level 5 lackeys he used to regard as mere accessories?
These are a bunch of little monsters in human skin!
"Okay! Okay!!"
General Poseidon put down his binoculars, his beard trembling with excitement.
He turned to look at Lu Sheng, who stood calmly beside him, and exclaimed sincerely, "Young friend Lu, your subordinates... are all exceptional individuals! Their teamwork and combat prowess are beyond level 6; they're practically a group of young killing gods!"
The performance of these three men not only stabilized the northern slope defense line, but also gave the entire army a strong boost of morale.
If even a level 6 player can be this strong, then how strong must Lu Sheng, the leader, be?
Lu Sheng remained calm, as if all of this was expected.
He was not complacent about his small victory; instead, his gaze passed over the noisy battlefield and fell upon the other mountain ranges in the distance, where flames were raging.
"General," Lu Sheng said calmly, "can those surrounding mountains hold out?"
Upon hearing this, the old general's joy faded somewhat.
He pulled up a reconnaissance report and said in a serious tone, "It's hard to say. Although intelligence shows that there are level 8 experts guarding several surrounding mountain ranges, such as Xiaogongga and Jiazi Peak, and even some rumored reclusive masters have come out of the mountains, facing a zombie horde of this scale... without a pillar of strength like you, I'm afraid the odds are against us."
"The odds are against him." Lu Sheng nodded slightly, tapping his fingers lightly on the railing.
He didn't care whether those people lived or died.
What he cared about was that if the surrounding mountains collapsed, the entire horde of over ten million corpses would crash down on Mount Gongga.
......
Fifty kilometers behind the horde of zombies.
Far from the roar of gunfire, there was only suffocating silence and the stench of decay.
A colossal throne, constructed from countless white bones, floats in mid-air.
The Abyss Corpse King leaned lazily on his throne, toying with a still-beating human heart in his hand. His eyes, burning with green ghostly flames, coldly watched the battlefield before him, which resembled a meat grinder.
In its eyes, those batches of low-level floating corpses that fell were nothing more than consumables, sandbags used to fill the human firepower network.
As long as we can conquer these mountains and devour the flesh and blood of the hundreds of thousands of humans inside, it will be worth it no matter how many cannon fodder die.
"The Corpse King! We can't send any more!!"
Beside the throne, Tian Zhen paced anxiously back and forth, his eyes bloodshot, as if his heart was bleeding.
"Those humans have too much firepower! Especially in the Langge and Gongga Mountains, it's like a hedgehog! My drowned army is fearless, but it can't be worn down like this! We must send out high-level combat forces to tear their defenses apart in one fell swoop! Otherwise, how long will my plan be delayed?!"
Tian Zhen is going crazy.
He originally thought he could sweep everything away with the horde of millions of zombies, but he didn't expect these humans to be so tenacious.
The Abyss Corpse King slowly turned his head.
Those ghostly, eerie eyes glanced coldly at Tian Zhen.
"Buzz—"
A terrifying pressure originating from the peak of level 9 pressed down like ten thousand mountains in an instant.
