Yue Zhong faced the 20 S3s whose speed far surpassed his own, and his eyes flashed with a strange glint. With a flash of light, White Bones stepped out from the void, and transformed into a thick layer of bone armor on Yue Zhong's body.
With a thought, Yue Zhong activated his Devil Flame, and expended 50 points of Spirit and 20 points of Stamina to conjure a huge Devil Flame Sword in his hands.
The moment the Devil Flame Sword appeared in Yue Zhong's hands, his body was clawed viciously by the sharp claws of 3 of the S3s.
Under the claws of the 3 S3s, Yue Zhong's Bone Carapace, which could not even be penetrated by heavy machine gun bullets, was left with 3 deep claw marks.
He activated his [Shadow Steps], at the same time, he swung his Devil Flame Sword, and the 6m-long Devil Flame Sword sliced through the 3 S3s in front of him, as well as the other 6 S3s that were charging towards him, slicing them in two.
The huge experience orb flowed into Yue Zhong's body, allowing him to advance a level.
"Congratulations on gaining Level 45, you have gained 2 attribute points to be allocated."
Yue Zhong chose to increase his Agility by 2 points, before waving his Devil Flame Sword and slashing down, instantly killing another S3.
The remaining 10 S3s had already evolved with the Danger Perception ability, and they dodged Yue Zhong's slashes at the first moment.
Yue Zhong did not bother about those that dodged his slashes, instead, he wielded the Devil Flame Sword and slashed at the head of an L3 that was charging at him. Under the slash of the Devil Flame Sword, the head of the L3 that was charging at him was instantly decapitated, as it tumbled to the ground.
The most terrifying thing about the L3 was its indestructible Body of Steel, and its immense strength. The moment that the Body of Steel was broken by Yue Zhong, the threat it posed was greatly diminished. Of course, if Yue Zhong was directly hit by the L3, his Bone Carapace would not be able to withstand the terrifying strength of the L3.
After killing the L3 with a single slash, Yue Zhong's left hand shot out 3 sharp bone blades and viciously chopped at the L3's neck. However, when the bone blades that could kill an L2 landed on the L3's neck, there was a crisp sound of metal clashing. There was only a thin layer of white marks on the L3's neck.
"Using the Bone Blade to deal with these L3s is really difficult!" Yue Zhong frowned and thought to himself. The Devil Flame Sword was powerful, but it also consumed a lot of energy. It was not suitable for a protracted battle. If Yue Zhong had a sharp enough weapon, it would be much easier for him to deal with the high-level zombies.
Yue Zhong's attack had infuriated the L3, and it quickly charged forward, its fist the size of a washbasin bringing with it a strong gust of wind as it smashed towards Yue Zhong.
That L3 was a terrifying monster that had the strength of 18 people. One punch of it had the strength of several tons, and it could easily pierce through an armored vehicle. If Yue Zhong was hit, even with his enhancements, he would still be heavily injured.
Facing the mountain-like L3, Yue Zhong dodged to the side like a ghost, dodging the L3's attack. With a slash of his sword, he directly decapitated the L3.
The S3s that had been wandering around Yue Zhong like ghosts saw the opportunity, and quickly pounced over, surrounding Yue Zhong in an instant. They all reached out with their claws to grab at Yue Zhong's body.
Facing the sudden intrusion of 10 S3s, Yue Zhong immediately activated his [Gravity Manipulation]. In an instant, the 10 S3s that were pouncing towards him were affected by the twofold gravity. It was as though their bodies had an additional 100 jin of weight, and their speed was greatly reduced.
The twofold gravity had no effect on the strength-type zombies like the L3s. However, to the Agility-based S3s, it was the bane of their existence. Under the influence of the gravity, they lost the speed that they were so proud of.
Facing the sudden slowdown of the S3s, Yue Zhong did not hold back, as he slashed out with his Devil Flame Sword, and the 10 slowed down S3s were easily killed by Yue Zhong.
After killing the 10 S3s, Yue Zhong charged towards the remaining 8 L3s, and with a flash of fiery light, the remaining 8 L3s were killed by Yue Zhong.
After killing those high-level zombies, Yue Zhong kept all the equipment that they dropped into his Storage Ring, before leaping onto Greenie's back, and made for the skies. It was true that Yue Zhong was strong, but he was not a match for the horde of zombies that numbered in the hundreds of thousands.
As they soared into the skies, Yue Zhong looked down from above, only to discover that the dense horde of zombies had been split into 7 or 8 smaller groups.
Some of the zombie groups were attacking Yue Zhong's armored battalion, but most of them were fleeing for their lives.
The death of the Z2 had caused the entire horde to lose a unified command, and many of the zombies just stood there in a daze, without any signs of the ferocity that they had when they were charging towards the armored battalion.
Xu Zhengang, who was in charge of the command center, had also noticed the strange situation, and immediately gave the order for the 1st Regiment to launch a fierce assault on the horde.
By the time the 1st Regiment arrived on the battlefield, the majority of the zombies had already been swept away by the smaller groups of zombies and had escaped. On the battlefield, there were only hundreds of thousands of scattered zombies that were moving on instinct.
Although there was a huge number of zombies that did not have a unified command, it was impossible for them to attack in waves. They could only rely on their instincts to attack Yue Zhong's troops, and such attacks were of no threat to the 1st Regiment. They were easily breached.
The horde was too huge, and they were scattered all over the place. The battle continued until evening, and the 1st Regiment had not been able to wipe them all out. They could only retreat under the cover of the armored battalion! Fighting in the night was too disadvantageous for the humans.
However, the leader of the horde, the Z2, had already been wiped out, and the rest of the zombies were scattered. It would take some time for a new Z2 to evolve.
On the 2nd day, Xu Zhen Guang had already commanded the 1st Battalion to launch a relentless assault on the zombie horde.
The horde was made up of ordinary zombies, and since they were slow, they were quickly caught up by Xu Zhengang's 1st Regiment.
Under the assault of the armored battalion, a large number of zombies were crushed. Those Z1s that were hiding among the horde and acting as commanders quickly abandoned the main force under the cover of the evolved zombies.
With Greenie's help, Yue Zhong managed to kill 4 Z1s, but there were still 3 that managed to escape under the cover of the evolved zombies.
Without the command of the Z-Type, the horde was like a piece of cake, and Yue Zhong's troops were able to eat it. Xu Zhengang commanded his troops to launch a relentless assault on the horde, easily wiping them out.
The intense battle lasted for 5 whole days, and the 700,000 zombies that were scattered over a few dozen kilometers were finally wiped out by Yue Zhong's troops.
The reason why they could wipe out over 500,000 zombies on the first day was because of the heavy artillery, killing a large number of zombies.
After losing the command of the Z-Type, the ordinary zombies could no longer charge forward in waves, and Yue Zhong's heavy artillery troops could not achieve the same results as the first day.
After 5 days, Yue Zhong's troops finally entered Long Hai County after wiping out the majority of the horde.
"Congratulations, for conquering Long Hai County, you have obtained the title 'Conqueror of Long Hai County'! The title grants you + 2 to all 6 attributes. The title cannot be repeated! The effects of the title can be stacked! "
"You have brought troops to conquer Long Hai County, you have obtained + 3 levels, and 6 attribute points to be allocated."
"You have brought troops to conquer Long Hai County, you have obtained 10000 Survivor Coins!"
"You have brought troops to conquer Long Hai County, you have obtained Level 4 Defense Vest!"
"You have brought troops to conquer Long Hai County, you have obtained 1 additional skill point!"
When Yue Zhong stepped into Long Hai County, a clear notification resounded in his mind. A powerful surge of energy surged into his body, causing his level to rise to 48, gaining 6 attribute points to be allocated.
Yue Zhong chose to allocate 4 points to Agility, and 2 points to Stamina.
[Level 4 Protective Vest. Equipping this Protective Vest will strengthen all six of your attributes by 15 points. Furthermore, it can withstand bullets of 25mm caliber and below. "
After conquering Long Hai County, Yue Zhong had gained a huge boost, especially the Level 4 Defense Vest, which was a precious treasure. It could allow an ordinary person to become invulnerable, and possess a physique that was twice that of a normal person.
Yue Zhong did not hesitate, and immediately allocated the skill point to the Devil Flame. In his sea of knowledge, the runes on the Devil Flame flashed, and it had once again evolved.
"Level 3 Skill: Devil Flame! (Enhancement + 3) … … The might of the Devil Flame is 4 times stronger than before! "
After Yue Zhong had allocated the skill point to the Devil Flame, his Devil Flame had also reached its maximum level. The next step was to obtain another 2 skill points to be able to learn the Second Order Devil Flame Skill.
In Qing Yuan County, there was a tense atmosphere. Everyone was working, and at the same time, they were paying close attention to the latest news of Yue Zhong leading his troops to clear the zombies.
If Yue Zhong was defeated, and the horde of zombies were to launch an attack on Qing Yuan County, they were afraid that the few days they had just lived would be wiped out.
It had already been 8 days, and there was no news from the frontlines, causing the survivors to feel anxious.
"Victory!!! Victory!!! Commander Yue had led his troops to annihilate millions of zombies! We have already conquered Long Hai City! Long Hai City is ours!!! "A soldier rushed into Qingyuan County and loudly announced this news.
"Wonderful!!"
"Awesome!!"
"Long live Yue Zhong!!"
"…"
Hearing this news, all the survivors in Qingyuan County shouted from the bottom of their hearts. They longed to hear of that triumph. This news meant that they would not be threatened by the zombies for a long time. They could do their jobs with peace of mind and live well with dignity. All of Qingyuan County was cheering and jumping with joy. Everyone was immersed in joy.
The moment Yue Zhong conquered Long Hai City, he immediately sent out his troops to clear out the zombies in the surrounding villages. Long Hai City had a population of over 6 million before the apocalypse, and Yue Zhong had only reclaimed the city. In the villages around Long Hai City, there are still many scattered zombies. If the zombies were not exterminated, there was a possibility that the new Z-Types would gather and form a horde of zombies.
The survival ability of humans is extremely tenacious. Although Long Hai City is occupied by millions of zombies, it is still able to survive. However, after conquering Long Hai City, Yue Zhong still managed to find over 2,000 survivors from various corners of the city. Most of the survivors were emaciated and on the verge of death. However, Yue Zhong managed to find 165 Enhancers within Long Hai City. Among them, there were 32 Enhancers who were above Level 30.
Yue Zhong immediately recruited these Enhancers into his army, while the 32 Enhancers above Level 30 were transferred into the Special Combat Forces, becoming a part of them.
Yue Zhong also moved 100,000 people from Qingyuan County and Ning Guang County into Long Hai City. With such a huge influx of people, the factories within Long Hai City began to operate quickly.
Liu Yujiao had introduced Gao Ming to Yue Zhong, and he was truly capable. The factories within Long Hai City also started to resume production under his guidance, and new bullets and artillery shells were being produced continuously. Of course, because the workers were not as experienced as the previous factories, the production of new bullets and artillery shells was not as fast as before the apocalypse.
Although Yue Zhong had emerged victorious from the battle against the millions of zombies, he had expended a huge amount of resources. After clearing out the zombies, he had used up about half of his ammunition reserves. For the time being, he did not have the ability to launch another large-scale campaign to clear out the millions of zombies.
After conquering Long Hai City, Yue Zhong's reputation amongst the survivors was at its peak, and the soldiers under him were filled with hope for the future.
"Captain Yue!! The Snake Birth Fruit Tree has borne fruit!! "Xiao Ming found Yue Zhong and reported.
Xiao Ming was one of the first veterans to follow Yue Zhong, and he had brought an elite company of soldiers to guard the Mechanized Infantry Brigade Station. The location of the Mechanized Infantry Brigade Station had been classified as top secret, and other than Yue Zhong and a few others, no one else was allowed to get close.
The Snake Birth Fruit Tree that could allow a person to become an Evolver had become one of Yue Zhong's trump cards. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
