Rumble!
The sound of tank tracks rolling over the asphalt road echoed continuously.
On the largest and most central highway in Jinghai City, convoys of state-of-the-art tanks are slowly driving into the city center, followed by a large number of military vehicles.
The commotion first attracted the attention of the zombies roaming along both sides of the road. These zombies, which had not yet advanced to level two, were taken care of by snipers in several military vehicles without even needing to fire cannons.
Subsequently, a large number of survivors, hearing the commotion, rushed over and were overjoyed to see that it was the army.
In an instant, some knelt down to beg, while others tried to curry favor with the army; all had one goal: to get the army to rescue them.
Seeing this, the army commander simply told them to go back and wait until the zombies were cleared out before discussing these matters.
Rescue is impossible, as even he is not in control of his own destiny. However, once he takes over the entire city, he will establish a new set of rules to adapt to this new era.
After traveling for a while, the advance team came to report that they had discovered a large integrated commercial district ahead, which included hotels, supermarkets, and a series of other consumer venues.
The corps commander took out a cigarette, slowly lit it, took a deep drag, and then delivered a message with a smile: "All troops, prepare to kill all the zombies, and remember to save some bullets for me!"
After these words, the troops' speed increased dramatically. With their highly mechanized units, they arrived in the business district in just a short while.
roar!
The first thing they encountered was a mutated zombie with two heads, half a meter taller than a tank, whose level was clearly mid-level four.
Right at the start, he took the lead, jumped onto a tank, and started wildly punching it with both fists.
"Damn it, fire the cannon!"
The corps commander spat out his cigarette, casually pulled a rocket launcher from the back seat, and fired a shot at the zombie.
Bang!
The immense impact sent the zombie flying more than ten meters away. To his surprise, after the smoke cleared, the zombie, though its chest was covered in blood, still struggled to its feet.
At this moment, the sounds of struggling and screaming echoed throughout the business district. Looking around, all that could be seen was a dark mass of zombies. Even a slight estimate would reveal a shocking fact: tens of thousands of zombies!
Their running speed had now surpassed that of normal humans, and they confronted the army head-on with tremendous force.
Gunfire erupted continuously.
The loud noise woke up the entire city, including Xu Xing and his group.
Xu Xing, who had made preparations in advance, instructed all his men to stay quietly in the villa area and not to wander around during this time, as the zombies in the entire city began to gather at an extremely rapid pace.
Never mess with them.
Xu Xing planned to go alone this time. Since he was just following behind the army to scavenge supplies, he could take away as much as the army came, as long as his space was available.
Despite the army's current ease, the battle has been disrupted by the arrival of level four and above zombies, and even mutated beasts.
The army's situation will get worse and worse, and they will have no choice but to recruit local superhumans. Although the requirements are high, they are not worth mentioning to Xu Xing.
After making some quick arrangements with his confidants, including Susie, he rushed alone to the battlefield in the city.
He first arrived at the top floor of a five-star hotel not far away, where he was very familiar with the most luxurious presidential suite, because it was his own hotel.
Perhaps because the security door was too sturdy, there were still two half-naked zombies inside. After casually dealing with them, they stood in front of a window, carefully observing the situation.
The battlefield below felt like two different eras; the bullets constantly gushing from the submachine guns could instantly rip open the skulls of zombies.
Only level three zombies could barely avoid their attacks, but they were still targeted one by one by those grenades.
During this time, the heavily armed tanks were not idle at all; the heavy machine guns at the top even cleaved nearby zombies in two.
Each artillery shell creates a vacuum in an area, turning even the most sturdy tanks into killing machines, leaving a trail of blood with every step.
Xu Xingming knew about this situation, but he was still amazed. It was a pity that the zombies would continue to evolve, otherwise, they would just be ordinary zombies, not enough for humans to kill.
Just as he was sighing, several large groups of mutated beasts surged in from all directions. Their style of doing things was extremely brutal, and their targets were not only humans, but also zombies.
The situation on the battlefield became increasingly dire, with the corpses of zombies piled up like mountains around the army, yet the newcomers continued to charge forward relentlessly.
The balance of power slowly shifted. Humans are ultimately driven by emotion, and looking at the endless hordes of zombies, he found himself unable to sleep and on the verge of collapse.
Moreover, those zombies that reach level three or above will occasionally break through the hail of bullets and face ordinary people face to face. The result is self-evident; even one of them can cause enormous destruction.
Even some of the tanks were entangled by some level four zombies.
One of the zombies, wielding an iron chain, even ripped off the tank's cannon barrel.
"As expected, even in such a big city, there are many hidden and promising zombies. Fortunately, the army helped to clear them out, otherwise he and his men alone would not even have the qualifications to compete with the other side."
Xu Xing sighed.
As the number of zombies increased, the commander sensed something was wrong and wanted to push forward as quickly as possible, even though every step he took might involve stepping over countless zombie corpses.
Their soldiers are also dwindling, and the rate of loss will accelerate over time.
At this point, there was no longer any thought of conserving bullets. Everyone was carrying submachine guns or rocket launchers, bombarding the zombie horde with round after round.
"Commander...Commander, we've already used up more than half of our ammunition. If this continues, we'll be worn down sooner or later. What's more, those are even more powerful zombies; bullets to them are like tickles!"
An adjutant, looking disheveled, ran over and said.
"Damn it!" the army commander cursed.
They wanted to retreat, but now they were in a dilemma. Zombies and mutated beasts from all over the city were gathering here, and they would probably pay a huge price.
The corps commander sighed and said, "Turn on the loudspeakers of all military vehicles and inform all surrounding areas that all superhumans should come and assemble!"
"yes!"
Upon hearing the voice coming from below through the loudspeaker, Xu Xing's lips curled up slightly; he could finally go on stage.
