"That's amazing! I feel like I could fight until dawn!"
Meng Qiu was also surprised by the effects of the pills. He calmed down and said to everyone, "Everyone, put in more effort, there will be plenty of pills!"
Upon hearing Meng Qiu's words, the wood-type ability users became incredibly energetic, recklessly channeling their abilities. Once their abilities were exhausted, a single pill would restore them to full health, making them as resilient as cockroaches.
The zombie leader had intended to use third and fourth-tier zombies to break through the enemy's defenses, but unexpectedly encountered Meng Qiu's team. Realizing they couldn't exhaust the enemy's abilities through sheer numbers, they abandoned their attempt to break through from that point.
Standing on the high platform, An Ge looked at the rows of green plants and couldn't help but sigh, "Ting Xue's pills are really amazing. It's a pity that the pills are limited and have all been supplied to Meng Qiu's team."
"The Recovery Pill is, after all, just an external force, and its effect on high-level ability users is limited. Once their abilities are depleted to a certain extent, they will experience a period of exhaustion, so it should not be used lightly," Hu Jiu warned.
An Ge nodded; she had misunderstood. All pills have side effects, even perfect ones. Meng Qiu clearly knew this too, but their team's overall strength wasn't high, so even if they were exhausted later, it wouldn't affect the battle.
While everyone was fighting off the zombies, An Ge and the others were also busy, constantly eliminating zombies trying to enter the base. An Ge, in particular, didn't forget to spare some of her mental energy to repair the protective shield while she was attacking.
However, she knew when to stop and wouldn't devote all her energy to it. Although the repaired shield wasn't as strong as before, as long as it wasn't completely breached, it could withstand some of the zombies' power and reduce the pressure on everyone.
Under Wen Zihao's command and with the help of high-level superhumans, the zombies couldn't get even a step close to the base.
Even so, some soldiers were accidentally bitten by zombies. Just when they thought they were about to become the most hated zombies, a green light suddenly enveloped them. Then, the bite wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and they were back to normal in no time. They didn't even have time to feel the feeling of their brains being eroded.
"Haha, everyone, charge forward without worry! Our leader can purify the zombie virus, and the medical team is behind us to ensure our safety. What are we afraid of?" someone shouted excitedly.
"Charge!" The soldiers' morale was at its peak, and they eliminated the zombies even faster.
Some of the superpowered individuals were secretly alarmed. There had been rumors that the leader could revive those bitten by zombies, but they hadn't quite believed it. Now, witnessing it firsthand, they were astonished. After recovering from their shock, the others were overjoyed. With their leader, this formidable weapon, what did they have to worry about?
An Ge originally thought that after the third and fourth-tier zombies failed to break through the defense line, the other side would send higher-tier zombies, but to his surprise, there was still no movement until dawn.
As the first rays of sunlight touched the earth, the zombies retreated like the receding tide.
Watching the dark mass of zombies retreat, An Ge's expression grew even more serious. This attack had shown the zombies the difficulty of breaking through with brute force alone; those remaining in the base needed to make their move.
Meng Qiu's team was already exhausted, mechanically consuming recovery pills as their supernatural abilities were constantly depleted and replenished, until finally even the recovery pills had no effect. The moment the zombies retreated, Meng Qiu and the others were completely drained, collapsing to the ground.
"Phew, did they retreat? Did they retreat?"
"Captain Meng, the zombies have retreated! We succeeded!"
Everyone wore joy on their faces, but the entire team was unusually quiet because they didn't even have the energy to cheer.
"I can't take it anymore, I need to rest for a while." Such voices rose and fell, and soon the team members fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing this, the others couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration, which strengthened their resolve to fight against the zombies.
An Ge released her spiritual power to reduce their pain and allow her strength to recover as quickly as possible. "Carry them away, be careful not to disturb their sleep," An Ge instructed the support team.
Meng Xia and Liu Tingxue had been racing against time to research the purification potion. Upon learning this, a flicker of heartache crossed her eyes, mixed with pride. Her younger brother, unseen by her, was becoming exceptionally talented.
Despite winning two battles in a row, the group remained vigilant, knowing that the real battle might not have even begun yet.
The cleanup team quickly cleared the battlefield, carefully dug out the crystal cores, and handed them over to the crystal core management office. No one dared to keep them for themselves, because these were the crystal cores that the soldiers had risked their lives to obtain.
While humans and zombies are engaged in a great battle, the realm of gods is also in turmoil.
Since the divine descent, many deities have harbored thoughts of going to minor planes. Some want to develop followers, some simply want to travel around, and some want revenge.
Rhodes submitted his application to descend into another plane to the Divine Alliance, eager to seek revenge on the chosen one who had humiliated him. However, before confronting the other party, he needed to make a trip to another plane.
That plane was his testing ground, and it was extremely important to him. Recently, the God Realm Alliance suspected that some minor planes had been contaminated and was preparing to send gods to investigate thoroughly; he couldn't afford to expose that plane.
Rhodes mobilized his divine power, attempting to locate the plane and unleash a miracle, but his efforts were unsuccessful.
"Hmm? Why can't I locate the plane?" Rhodes had a bad feeling and immediately used a special artifact to contact his followers. He heard the followers mention that humans wanted to retaliate, and that some of them were powerful superhumans.
Rhodes scoffed. What good was strength if he was still his follower in the end?
After telling the Zombie King not to be stingy with his divine power and to eliminate the rebels at all costs, he hung up the call with peace of mind. Breaking through the barrier of the Heavenly Dao of the minor plane and communicating with the believers was quite taxing; he had to use it sparingly.
If he weren't afraid of making too big a move and attracting the attention of the Divine Realm Alliance, which would then discover something was wrong with the plane, he would have taught it a lesson, even at the risk of causing the Heavenly Dao of this small plane to collapse.
"Hmph, a mere Heavenly Dao of a minor plane dares to defy the gods." Rhodes showed disdain but no anger. Once the humans of that plane are wiped out, the will of the Heavenly Dao will naturally change, and at that time, the Heavenly Dao will only be able to obey his commands.
"But where is that wretched Chosen One?" Rhodes frowned, sensing Ango's aura, but to no avail.
He never expected that An Ge would be involved in the events of the post-apocalyptic world. In his view, An Ge's world was the West Asian continent, not the post-apocalyptic world. Even if she could go to the post-apocalyptic world, she wouldn't be able to stay there for long.
He forgot that there is a type of chosen one who specializes in management and can traverse planes for extended periods. Of course, he might know this, but he never considered it, because a management-type deity couldn't possibly possess such formidable combat power.
Thinking of the sword strike that made him a laughingstock in the divine realm, Rhodes' hatred for Ange intensified, and he wished he could set off for the West Asian continent immediately.
