As King Kong changed direction and moved closer to the ancient city wall, the gunshots became increasingly louder.
"I wonder who their commander is. Don't they realize that fighting zombies like this will only lead to more and more zombies?"
Unless their ammunition reserves are enough to wipe out all the zombies in the entire city of Gan, they will eventually lose their hold.
From afar, Huang Zhao could already see the ancient city wall ahead, as well as the dense hordes of zombies outside the wall.
The ancient city walls were already in sight, and the number of zombies around them was increasing, which posed some obstacles to King Kong's actions.
"King Kong, climb up the building next door."
Huang Zhao did not intend to rush directly into the horde of corpses outside the city wall, and instructed Jin Gang.
About one kilometer from the ancient city wall, there are not many tall buildings in the vicinity, mostly six or seven stories high.
Upon hearing Huang Zhao's instructions, Jin Gang reached out and climbed onto the roof, then leaped up and easily reached the top.
After shaking off the horde of corpses on the road below, the group arrived at an apartment building closest to the ancient city wall.
From here, Huang Zhao could easily see the view from the city wall.
Along the three-kilometer-long city wall, there are now large groups of zombies forming "corpse towers" at intervals; at a rough glance, there are seven or eight such towers.
Above the corresponding city wall, many survivors holding guns were spitting fire at the zombies below.
"It looks like this has been going on for quite some time now, and most of the zombies in the city have been attracted here."
At this rate, they won't be able to hold out for long. The dead zombies will pile up at the bottom, and the zombies will get closer and closer to the height of the city walls.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Huang Zhao heard a violent explosion, and the pile of zombies was blown away.
The tower of corpses, which had already been erected more than five meters high, collapsed instantly.
"Okay, that should allow us to hold out a little longer."
Looking at the survivors on the city wall, who seemed to be in dire straits surrounded by zombies, Qin Yi's mood was not as relaxed as Huang Zhao's.
"The Gan River is behind the city wall. If zombies rush onto the city wall, they will have nowhere to run."
Huang Zhao knew that Qin Yi actually wanted to rescue these people, which was not difficult for them.
“We are just a few people, and we could see similar situations in every city after the apocalypse.”
Even if we're constantly putting out fires, we can't save everyone.
Huang Zhao has expressed his opinion on this many times, but he still can't help but want to complain.
"Hehe, I know that Brother Huang Zhao wouldn't just watch so many survivors get eaten by zombies."
Alice looked at Huang Zhao with a hint of admiration, knowing that he was just trying to find an excuse for his actions.
"Sigh, I shouldn't be so curious next time."
Huang Zhao was also somewhat helpless, but Alice was right.
Even if he knew that survivors were dying everywhere from being surrounded by zombies, he wouldn't care too much if he didn't see them.
However, seeing the situation unfolding before him, Huang Zhao would not simply turn away.
Judging from the firepower used to attack the zombies, there were at least a thousand survivors hiding on the ancient city walls.
Once the guns and ammunition are used up, the zombies will soon swarm the city walls and devour all the survivors.
After composing himself, Huang Zhao addressed the group:
"Wait here for me to come back. I'm going to go ahead and check on the survivors. If I can, I'll lend a hand."
After saying that, Huang Zhao leaped to the empty rooftop, walked to the edge, and looked down at the zombies that had piled up to the third floor below their apartment building.
Huang Zhao suddenly had an idea and said to Alice:
"Would you like to set off big firecrackers?"
As he spoke, Huang Zhao manipulated Chen Run to take out one and a half grenades from the supernatural space.
He casually opened a box, strummed the strings, and tossed it out—all in one smooth motion.
"BOOM!!"
The grenade landed and exploded in the dense horde of zombies below, causing the small building to visibly shake.
"It's quite loud."
Huang Zhao looked at the results of his attack with satisfaction; he had killed at least a dozen zombies.
Can we do it too?
Alice said excitedly, and even Ning Chuxia next to her seemed eager to try.
"If we don't use this thing, who knows when it will be put away."
"You guys play here, let Brother Yi teach you how to use it. If there's any danger, King Kong will take you to the rooftop of another building."
After saying that, Huang Zhao jumped off the seventh floor.
Just before landing, use your mental power to lift your body, reduce your speed, and land steadily.
The mental shockwave shot out, and the zombies that approached him fell down like wheat being harvested.
After clearing a small space, Huang Zhao began to approach the ancient city wall.
Behind Huang Zhao, the intermittent sound of grenade explosions could be heard. The four people left on the rooftop were using grenades to clear out and lure out the zombies.
Even if he had to avoid zombie attacks, Huang Zhao could reach the distance of about one kilometer in just about a minute.
......
A temporary command center on the ancient city wall.
What's the current situation regarding the evacuation and relocation?
"Reporting to the commander, more than two thousand survivors have gathered on the banks of the Gan River, preparing to cross to the other side via the pontoon bridge."
but..."
"You mean the mutated beasts in the water, right?"
There's no other way. If we don't evacuate, even more people will die when the zombies rush in.
"Yes, sir!"
At that moment, the group of people who were talking and directing the operation suddenly heard a series of grenade explosions.
"What's going on? Didn't we say grenades were for the most urgent situations?"
Li Dehua's expression was somewhat grim. Their ammunition stockpile was low, and grenades were the only weapon that could stop the zombies from surging onto the city walls.
He had already instructed everyone to use it sparingly, saving it for the most critical moments.
Just as he was about to go out to check, guard Jiang Haochen suddenly rushed into the command room.
"Haochen, why are you back?"
Go check on those brats wasting grenades for me.
"Sir, it wasn't our men who threw that grenade! It looks like reinforcements are arriving from outside the city walls!"
Jiang Haochen said somewhat excitedly.
Upon hearing this, Li Dehua immediately stood up, intending to ask for details, but then changed his mind and said:
"Let's go out and see! If there's reinforcements, we won't need to retreat!"
Everyone in the command center followed excitedly to the city wall.
I raised my binoculars and looked in the direction from which the frequent explosions were coming from.
The first thing that caught their eye was the enormous King Kong standing on the top floor of the apartment building.
"This...this is like King Kong from an American blockbuster running away?"
"What a huge mutated beast!"
Several officers exclaimed in shock.
Having guarded the ancient city wall for so long, they were no strangers to the mutated beasts.
The largest I've ever seen is a level three mutated beast that is about five meters tall.
King Kong was almost three times the size, which truly shocked them.
