Xiao Yi and his team were constantly frustrated in their battles with the zombies, and every conflict made them deeply aware of the terrifying evolution of the zombies. The cunning and ferocity of the third-level zombies far exceeded their imagination. They approached silently like ghosts in the night, and every surprise attack plunged the base into chaos and panic.

The soldiers' morale began to wane, and they felt powerless against the relentless onslaught of zombies. Despite their best efforts, the zombies' numbers seemed endless, and each repulse was only a fleeting victory. Furthermore, the zombies' rapid evolution was even more despairing. They gradually adapted to the inhibitors of evolution, rendering their original defensive strategies useless.

The base's defenses are crumbling under the zombies' fierce attacks. Walls are cracked and battered, power is frequently cut off, and living facilities are severely damaged. The base's residents live in fear and anxiety, fearing the next zombie attack will cost them their last refuge.

However, Xiao Yi did not give up. He knew that as a commander, he could not let his fear and despair affect others. He stood at the highest point of the base, looking into the distance, with a determined light in his eyes. He knew that they had to find a new way out, otherwise everyone would be in an irretrievable situation.

Xiao Yi summoned all the scientists and engineers in the base, who worked day and night to research new defense strategies and weapons. They tried to improve the evolution inhibitors, looking for a way to completely eliminate the zombies. At the same time, Xiao Yi also strengthened the training of the soldiers, improving their combat skills and teamwork.

In this difficult time, the residents of the base began to unite. No longer merely victims of fear, they became part of the fight. They assisted in repairing defenses, provided logistical support, and offered necessary aid to the soldiers. Everyone understood that only by working together could they defeat this common enemy.

Although the road ahead is full of unknowns and dangers, Xiao Yi and his companions did not retreat. They firmly believed that as long as they did not give up hope, they would be able to find a way to defeat the zombies. At this critical moment of life and death, they will use their courage and wisdom to fight for the future of mankind.

The immense pressure, like a heavy chain, relentlessly binds every member of the base, testing their courage and perseverance while silently eroding their trust and unity. As the base teeters on the brink of collapse after repeated setbacks in the fight against the zombies, internal conflicts gradually surface, and different individuals begin to develop their own ideas and actions.

Some began to doubt Xiao Yi's leadership, believing that he was taking too many risks and his strategies were not well-thought-out, which had led to the base's precarious situation. They discussed it privately, and some even secretly plotted to replace him. This dissatisfaction and resentment surged like an undercurrent, constantly threatening the harmony and stability of the base.

Others began searching for their own escape. They no longer believed the base could withstand the zombie onslaught, nor did they believe humanity could survive this catastrophe. They began secretly gathering resources, preparing to escape the impending collapse of the refuge. Though their actions were silent, every theft of supplies and disappearance of personnel silently revealed their intentions.

The scientists at the base were also under immense pressure. They worked tirelessly day and night to research evolution inhibitors, attempting to find a way to combat the Level 3 zombies. However, as their research deepened, they discovered the problem was far more complex than they had imagined. Some began to question the value of their research, believing it was a waste of time and resources; others, however, fell into despair, believing that the evolution of the zombies was inevitable and that humanity's doom was imminent.

At this critical moment, Xiao Yi faced an unprecedented challenge. Not only did he have to face the external zombie threat, but he also had to deal with internal conflicts and divisions. He knew that only by uniting as one could they overcome this difficult time. So, he began to try to communicate with everyone in the base, understand their ideas and needs, and try his best to resolve conflicts and build consensus.

He first sought out those who questioned his leadership, patiently listening to their opinions and suggestions while also candidly expressing his own thoughts and resolve. He told them that only by uniting as one could they defeat the zombie threat and protect humanity's future. His words, though simple, were powerful, causing those in the group to reassess their positions.

For those who were about to flee, Xiao Yi did not choose to severely punish them, but instead tried to understand their fear and anxiety. He told them that fleeing was not the solution to the problem, and that only by staying and facing difficulties together could they find hope for survival. His words, though gentle, were full of determination, causing those people to reconsider their choices.

As for the scientists, Xiao Yi encouraged them to persevere and not give up hope. He told them that human wisdom and creativity are infinite, and as long as they persist in their efforts, they will surely find a way to fight the zombies. His words, though brief, were filled with confidence, allowing the scientists to regain the motivation and direction for their research.

Thanks to Xiao Yi's efforts, the conflicts within the base gradually eased. People began to unite again and face the threat of zombies together. They knew that only by uniting as one can they defeat this common enemy and protect the future of mankind.

Xiao Yi stood in the command room of the base, and the latest updates of the zombie swarm kept flashing on the display screen in front of him. He knew clearly that they could no longer sit and wait for death, and they had to have a final decisive battle with these evolved zombies, otherwise everything would be over.
