The Mountain Zombie took a step forward. Its movement was rather slow, but it felt like it was getting closer to the city with each step.
Its head was getting closer under the gloomy rain. It had already traveled more than ten kilometers without realizing it. Luckily, it came to a stop around ten kilometers away.
A Corpse Official that looked like a meatball was standing beside its foot. Its size was almost the size of a small hill, yet its height was only below the Mountain Zombie's knee.
The mouth of the Flesh Mound Corpse Official was extremely huge. When it opened its mouth, it was able to devour the skeletons, zombies, and phantoms around it as if it was drinking water from a river. The amount of undead it contained was most likely no less than a thousand!
Mo Fan did not dare to look any further after witnessing the sight. Even though he had no idea why the Flesh Mound Corpse Official was devouring his army of undead, it was not the time for him to think about it. He had to find Liu Ru, Zhang Xiaohou, and the others as soon as possible and evacuate them to the inner walls.
"Mo Fan, what should we do?" Zhou Ming looked at Mo Fan with a hint of panic in her eyes.
"Come with me," said Mo Fan sternly.
"I'm going to Bo City Street. I don't want to see something like this happen again," said Mubai in a deep voice.
"Yeah, Mo Fan, we can't just leave them behind," said Zhou Ming.
"Mm, we'll go to Bo City Street first," Mo Fan nodded.
As Mubai had mentioned, the people of Bo City had already gone through a great disaster and barely survived. It would be too cruel for them if they were to meet with misfortune again.
Mo Fan knew the number of people he could bring with him was limited. Since Zhang Xiaohou, Liu Ru, and the others were in the same direction, he could not just leave them be.
"Count me in," said Shorty to Mo Fan as he slowly rose to his feet.
Mo Fan looked at the sorrowful Shorty and nodded.
It seemed like he had thought it through. The dead could not be resurrected. He could only protect himself in a chaotic world, before he could protect others.
"Then let's hurry up and set off. There are already some undead wandering around the city walls that have broken into the city. The city walls have been severely damaged, so more and more undead are pouring in. Mubai, do you have any other relatives in North City? "Zhou Min asked.
"It's my uncle, but he should be somewhere close to the inner city. He said he was going to the inner city to discuss business," Mubai said.
"En, that's good. Let's head to Bo City Street. I hope they haven't gotten too separated."
"Bo City Street is quite a distance away from the inner city wall. With the current traffic paralysis, they may not be able to reach there safely." Zhou Min was particularly worried.
Transportation was completely paralyzed. Even the mages could only walk.
Considering the group's speed, even with a Wind Mage, the group was still advancing at a slow pace. Meanwhile, the undead had already crossed the collapsed walls and were swarming into the city. These undead creatures with bloodshot eyes chased after and bit the living creatures they saw. Blood mixed with the rain and soon dyed the area around the city red.
In the area, groups of Battlemages were trying to disperse the crowd. No matter how many spells they used to bombard the area, the number of undead that were swarming into the city was still more than the number of dead. The Battlemages were forced to retreat …
The initial resistance was still effective, but Mofan knew it was only to buy some time for the crowd to escape.
Both the Nether Bone Ruler's army of skeletons and the Mountain Zombie's sea of undead were going to tear the Battlemages into pieces.
…
Mofan, Zhou Min, Mubai, and Shorty were heading toward Bo City Street. The four of them were Intermediate Magicians, thus their physiques were a lot stronger than ordinary people. Since the street was already filled with abandoned vehicles and people fleeing for their lives, they could easily cross the gaps between the roofs. The densely packed buildings allowed them to "leap over the roofs and vault over the walls".
"Mofan, I thought your energy hasn't recovered yet. I have some medicine here, it can help you recharge your energy." Mubai took out some medicine that he always brought with him and handed it to Mofan.
"Thanks, thanks a lot." Mofan's energy was exactly what he needed right now.
A Magician with four Elements like him had twice as much energy as an ordinary Magician. It was not easy to deplete all his energy. Luckily, he and Yao Nan had returned to the tower in advance, allowing them some time to rest. Otherwise, if he ran out of energy, he would most likely die in the sea of undead, let alone saving the people.
As they passed by the hospital that had been razed to the ground, Mofan purposely glanced at Shorty.
Shorty did not show any sign of reluctance. It was obvious that he was someone who had witnessed life and death before. He had only lost his mind because the person was the most important person to him.
What could he do now that the person was gone? He still had to try his best to stay alive.
"With our speed, we should be able to withdraw to the inner city before the army of undead devours this place," said Shorty.
He was quite familiar with the Ancient Capital. With him leading the way, they would be able to reach Bo City Street as soon as possible, and bring the people of Bo City to a safe zone.
"That's great, but I feel sorry for the people living close to the outer walls …" Zhou Ming was a girl, after all. Her heart was filled with sorrow when she saw so many innocent people dying.
In less than an hour after the purple alert went off, the number of deaths in the streets close to the outer walls had already surpassed the total number of deaths in the calamity of Bo City. On top of that, the number would only continue to rise!
"What's that thing in the sky!?"
"Is that a lump of meat? Why is it the size of a building?"
"It has eyes, my God, it's so scary …"
The crowd on the street burst into panicked screams. Many people raised their heads and stared at the enormous thing flying across the sky!
Mofan raised his head too and saw a huge lump of meat falling like a meteorite toward the crossroad not far away.
The crossroad was the main road, and was spacious and filled with traffic. However, when the lump of meat fell from the sky, it actually occupied the entire crossroad. Many of the buildings nearby were smashed into pieces!
Mofan stared at the round lump of meat in astonishment … He had some impression of it. Wasn't it the Flesh Mound Corpse Official that had devoured over a thousand undead near the Mountain Zombie's feet!?
The Flesh Mound Corpse Official had fallen from the sky. Could it be that the Mountain Zombie had tossed it directly into the city? That was more than ten kilometers away!
While Mofan was staring at the scene in astonishment, a bad feeling rose in Mofan's mind …
He focused his gaze on the Flesh Mound Corpse Official again. As expected, the humongous creature that looked like a mound of flesh opened its mouth. The skeletons, zombies, and wraiths that it had swallowed earlier suddenly surged out of its stomach like a tide!
The street was filled with screams. The crowd that had finally managed to evacuate in an orderly manner immediately panicked. Trampling, pushing, shoving …
Mofan was dumbfounded!
He raised his head and stared into the sky above the city. He was shocked to see the same enormous Flesh Mound Corpse Official flying toward the city from the distance, and crashing into a corner of the city like a bunch of meteorites!
Mofan could feel his scalp turning numb. He never thought the Mountain Zombie would use brute force to toss the Flesh Mound Corpse Official into the city, and send thousands of undead onto the streets …
