The City of Silver finally won, but it was an unimaginable Pyrrhic victory. Bear's legs were chopped off when he was encircling the skeleton warriors. Following that, he was drowned by countless zombies. By the time reinforcements arrived, the powerful professional had already been torn to pieces.
It was the same for Double-Face. The face behind her was shattered by the skeleton warrior's sword, and the other face that had accompanied Double-Face for countless days and nights disappeared just like that. As for Double-Face herself, she went mad from the intense pain. Even though she survived, her mind was greatly damaged, and she would spend the rest of her life in chaos.
As for the hundreds of professionals, the death rate was more than 60%. As for the remaining powerhouses who survived, many of them were crippled. The City of Silver had won the darkest day in its history. And this was only the casualties of the professionals. The undead army had descended too suddenly. Before that, many people were working outside. More than thousands of civilians were devoured. Only the scarlet bloodstains and bones on the road proved that they had existed.
Tian Feng looked at everything in front of him in a daze. His breathing was heavy. He couldn't tell if it was the exhaustion from the battle or the horror in front of him. Far away on the coast, Ge Da and Lin Xiao couldn't have imagined that just as they were gathering their strength in an attempt to deal a fatal blow to Order, they would suffer such an extreme blow from behind.
Thankfully …
Tian Feng finally managed to defend the city. He defended the City of Silver's last weak candlelight. At this moment, Tian Feng even wanted to seek help from the frontlines, but he knew that it was impossible.
As a new member of the Dragon Gate, he knew how important this attack was to Lin Xiao. It could be said that the entire City of Silver had been emptied because of this battle. If news of the City of Silver's heavy losses were to spread at this moment, it was very likely that it would lower the warriors' confidence in participating in the battle. When that happened, Tian Feng would be considered to have committed a grave mistake. In order to calm the morale of the army, he might even be placed in a polarity state and become food for the dragons.
"No!"
Be it for the greater good or for himself, Tian Feng knew that he couldn't act rashly. At this moment, they had only lost less than a hundred professionals. They were just a few high-level professionals, but once it affected the morale of the army, when the City of Silver was defeated by Order, it would be a heavy loss of tens of thousands of people and thousands of professionals.
"Speed up the repair of the damaged city!"
"Anyone who leaks the news of the attack on the frontlines will be killed without mercy!"
This was the end of the world, where one could encounter misfortune at any time. However, it was also because of the end of the world that the fates of countless ordinary people changed, and they walked on a path that they did not dare to imagine in the past.
The survivors began to repair the corpses under Tian Feng's command. The corpses of their former teammates could no longer be transported back to the city because they were fighting against the undead. At this time, they had only been dead for an hour, and their bodies had not undergone any qualitative changes. However, after a period of time, the corpse poison would develop in their bodies, and the corpses would mutate. Tian Feng had experienced the first day of the apocalypse, so of course, he did not want to experience the despair of a zombie siege again.
All the corpses were burned on the spot. When many people learned that their loved ones had died an unnatural death, they began to wail at the distant beams of light. For the City of Silver, today was destined to be a bleak day. Countless people had lost their loved ones, and those people had tasted pain that they hadn't felt in a long time.
The human corpses and the undead were piled up together. The fire burned for an entire night before everything disappeared. Tian Feng did not sleep at all. After being bandaged in the treatment room, he stood on the broken wall and looked into the distance, feeling a little tired.
"We must succeed!"
Tian Feng clenched his fists, looking forward to the army's victory. There was no distinction between good and evil in any battle. In order to survive, the City of Silver had stored a lot of food. This was something that was understandable in the apocalypse.
Apart from praying for the victory of the battle, there was one more important thing for Tian Feng. He hoped that no new dimensional rifts would open around the city in the near future. At this moment, the City of Silver was like a giant bear that had gone through hibernation. The fat in its body had long been hollowed out in the cold winter. Even if its body was heavy, it was only in appearance.
Tian Feng raised his head and looked at the sunlight that had finally appeared. He muttered to himself, "We must … win!"
…
Lin Xiao's figure appeared on the deck. At this moment, he was wearing a thin shirt. Even though the surrounding cold wind was biting to the bone, he ignored it and did not make any extra movements.
The cold wave would continue for a long time, and this was also the starting point of the City of Silver's decision to launch this battle. The City of Silver's food was about to run out. This meant that other than the countless survivors, the professionals, who were symbols of strength, would also face the problem of hunger.
This was something that shouldn't have happened.
? This was because Lin Xiao knew that the riots of ordinary people could be resolved. At the very least, they could be suppressed with powerful force. However, it was different for professionals. If the situation really happened as he expected, then the City of Silver would really suffer heavy losses. There might even be no possibility of recovery.
"What is Ge Da doing?"
Lin Xiao stood on the deck and looked into the distance. There was a hint of worry in his eyes as he muttered, "What an elusive power!"
???? Ever since Ge Er's death, Ge Da had become more and more taciturn, and his strength had become stronger!
Sometimes.
???? When Lin Xiao faced the other party, it was as if he was facing a tall mountain. According to the reports of some spies, the other party had been in contact with the extraterrestrial creature for a long period of time.
From the looks of it, Ge Da seemed to have made an unimaginable deal with the extraterrestrial creature.
Lin Xiao wasn't like Ge Da, who had an extraterrestrial creature that had existed for an unknown number of years by his side. However, he wasn't simple either. He had already walked out of the pain of losing his dragon. Therefore, at this time, he was nurturing the remaining dragons. Under the recommendation of resources, the strength of the dragons had greatly increased during this period of time.
Lin Xiao felt a little flustered. He even had a feeling that Ge Da was on the verge of losing control because Ge Da was unable to control that massive power.
Lin Xiao instinctively felt that a creature from another world was far from as simple as it appeared on the surface.
If it were in the past, Lin Xiao wouldn't have minded watching a few more scenes. He would wait until the victor between Ge Da and the extraterrestrial creature was decided before making any plans. However, he couldn't do it now because they were a team.
