Thirty-meter range.
The zombies beyond thirty meters did not stop; they continued rushing frantically towards the safety base.
Even though this thirty-meter range was like a drop in the bucket against the endless horde of zombies, it significantly relieved the pressure on the superpower users.
The zombies suddenly became corpses lying on the ground, causing all the superpower teams to momentarily freeze.
Even Captain Song Hongfei, using a Spiritual Ability, could only make them pause briefly. This was the first time they had seen something so fierce!
"What are you standing there for! Do you want to put makeup on them before cremating them? Get moving!"
Song Hongfei shouted at the stunned superpower team members.
Everyone instantly snapped back to reality, and various superpowers were flung wildly onto the zombies.
This time, Zhang Chen didn’t use Ice Ability to freeze them into ice sculptures. Instead, he only used Death Ability to conserve energy, doing more for everyone.
Cough, cough, after all, as the future wife of the base commander, it’s natural to put in extra effort for the base!
Protecting his base was Zhang Chen’s sole purpose.
Zhang Chen suddenly felt his thoughts were elevated to a higher state!
Emitting the halo of Holy Mother Mary.
The energy burst from the Bai Family showed no signs of waning, tirelessly hurling superpowers into the zombie horde, intimidating many onlookers.
They thought this family was incredibly formidable.
Leng Yebai and Bai Zhengxuan were the most evident.
One had a terrifyingly powerful ability, shaking the very soul; the other was entwined with Three Ability, truly startling.
Especially Leng Yebai, who looked a lot like the base commander. Both had Thunder Ability, and their formidable deterrence made everyone feel as if they had a strong backing.
There was a bit more hope.
"How does he know I want to put makeup on the corpses and then cremate them?" Wang Yiyun blinked innocently.
It turns out her thoughts were rather normal, seeing all these zombie corpses made her hands itch wasn’t something only she experienced.
She thought her occupational disease was too severe and abnormal!
"No, he doesn’t know," Bai Anhai said calmly, "He just used an exaggerated rhetorical device."
"No, he definitely knows," Wang Yiyun said confidently, "Surely I can’t be the only one thinking this way! Otherwise, it would make me seem very abnormal!"
"You’re not the only one, our mom feels this way too."
Purple lightning spilled from Bai Anhai’s fingertips, directly charring distant zombies without interrupting his conversation.
Fortunately, the roar of zombies was too loud; otherwise, superpower users hearing the Bai Family chatting so leisurely would surely be flustered.
"No, I don’t think this way; I don’t want cremation; I want to dissect them," Liu Jing said quietly.
Bai Anhai: ...
The appearance of Zhang Chen greatly relieved the area where zombies were densest. Even if the main gate collapsed, the zombies couldn’t enter the safety base.
Earth Ability Users quickly squeezed to the front, creating solid walls of earth. If they couldn’t hold, these walls could relieve some pressure.
Fighting for a few seconds to escape.
The dark mass of zombies surrounded the safety base. Though it seemed they could break through quickly, they just couldn’t penetrate. frёeωebɳovel.com
The survivors inside the base thought the base commander would raise a hand, wiping out many zombies as he did with the zombie dogs.
But the base commander wasn’t here. Fortunately, Leng Yebai, who was similar to him, was, which brought everyone a thread of hope.
The base commander couldn’t abandon his son and run!
Moreover, given how formidable Leng Yebai was, there was indeed hope of survival.
Cloud Hua Safety Base Commander - Leng Xiao, was currently in an area where zombies seemed sparse.
Around the safety base, there were just too many zombies. The base commander didn’t let others be here; instead, he had other superpower users assist elsewhere, believing his presence alone sufficed.
Facing a horde of zombies alone, the base commander’s stern face didn’t change.
The zombies he faced seemed more agile than others, with one bizarrely smiling at the base commander.
Dense purple lightning struck the center of the zombie horde. The zombies were struck down, unable to rise. Their skeletal fingers weakly clenched at the air until zombies from behind came stomping, crushing the helpless fingers off their wrists...
Zombies that couldn’t rise were mostly crushed to death by those behind.
The zombies that squeezed to the front didn’t rush forward but stood rigidly in place, ignoring the carrion beneath their feet, staring at the base commander with an eerie gaze.
As if to confirm the base commander’s identity.
With a horde of zombies, faces twisted with decaying flesh, staring, the base commander’s expression remained unchanged, his brow furrowed.
These zombies seemed endless.
When did High Rank Zombies become so prolific!
Even among ordinary zombies, the formation of High Rank Zombies followed a ratio; out of a hundred, you wouldn’t necessarily get one Second Rank Zombie.
But now, all he saw were High Rank Zombies.
These zombies, eerily curled lips, eyes agile, followed the base commander’s every move.
It was truly uncomfortable.
"Is it the Zombie King! What is your goal!"
The base commander’s stern voice rang out, his gaze fixed on the High Rank Zombie horde before him.
He knew the other party could hear him.
If an ordinary Zombie King wanted to destroy the base, it wouldn’t use so many zombies to attack. Even with the base commander’s prowess, the multitude was overwhelming.
And now, in this eerie scene, the opposition must have an ulterior motive.
"Hoo-haa――"
A tender voice emitted a zombie growl, like a signal, the other High Rank Zombies also released such a repressed sound from their throats.
"Hoo-haa――"
"Hoo-haa――"
Not a roar but just a normal sound from the throat.
It was as if the High Rank Zombie horde was mocking him.
The base commander frowned deeply; could he have misjudged?
But apart from a Zombie King, humans couldn’t possibly command so many zombies!
Before the base commander could think further, the High Rank Zombie horde suddenly parted, forming a path.
To call it a path, in truth, it was merely a meter-wide gap.
The High Rank Zombies lowered their heads slightly, splitting along either side of the path.
The sun shone on the zombie horde, yet the sunlight couldn’t reach the ground. The dark, narrow path seemed suffocating.
The base commander gazed at the crack barely called a path, seeing from afar the shadow of a naive child’s figure.
The figure appeared quite short, like a kindergartener.
Its limbs twisted awkwardly, with one arm bent backward hanging onto its shoulder, and one foot pointing forward, the other backward.
Such positions, difficult for normal people, were executed effortlessly by it, as it tottered toward the base commander’s direction, its body swaying, evoking a sense of pity.
As it approached further, the base commander finally saw its features clearly within the dark "road".
It was a High Rank Zombie that appeared to be only four or five years old.
Despite its face full of decaying flesh, it couldn’t conceal its tender face; the red scarf on its neck had been stained black by the dark blood. Without a closer look, one couldn’t tell it had been a once-bright red scarf...
