I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 1176 - 1171 Level 2 Phase

Chapter 1176: Chapter 1171 Level 2 Phase

"What’s this?"

The soldiers on the corpse defense wall quickly noticed the scene, all of them stunned and somewhat baffled.

"Why did they go back?"

Not just these soldiers, but also a few high-ranking officials on the Sky Continent had witnessed this bizarre scene. Afterwards, they exchanged glances, and each understood the thoughts of the others from their eyes.

"The intelligence of a Level 7 zombie should not be underestimated."

"We must find that zombie!" the high-ranking officials discussed briefly, and unusually, they reached a consensus.

One of them took out a mobile phone, opened the communication app, and accessed the chat interface.

Someone unknown sent out a message directly.

"Found it yet?"

"No, the horde is too large, many squads are trapped and didn’t dare to go out."

"It’s best to find that Level 7 zombie soon, or the consequences will be unimaginable."

"What happened?"

One of the high-ranking officials sent the information about what they had seen. The reconnaissance squad leader, on the other side, upon reading the message, immediately became serious. A zombie capable of strategy was not good news. In that moment, the reconnaissance squad leader realized the severity of the situation.

After forwarding the message to the reconnaissance squad group, the leader began to mobilize the other team members.

Among the four million-strong horde, the few Level 5 Speed Type zombies that had run to the front and then suddenly retreated hid themselves, while the twenty-one Level 5 Strength-Type Zombies didn’t retreat. They burst through the front of the horde and roared as they, along with other Strength-Type Zombies, charged toward the corpse defense wall!

"Prioritize attacking those high-level zombies," the sergeant ordered.

"Yes!"

The soldiers also responded loudly, and then the dense laser fire from their weapons shifted direction, targeting those twenty-one Level 5 zombies!

One of the zombies, whose arms appeared to be made of rocky blocks, was forced to retreat repeatedly under the laser fire. After withstanding it for a while, its body was riddled with numerous large and small bloody holes.

Roar!!

It roared, as if venting its frustration in front of the soldiers, but the soldiers didn’t care how loudly it yelled. They continuously attacked it with laser weapons, many of which hit its head directly. However, it was not that simple. The bone armor on its head was incredibly hard. When the lasers hit, they only caused a burst of sparks and left some scorch marks without shattering it, yet it still seemed somewhat uncomfortable.

Then, it suddenly raised its arms, and the huge "stones" on its arms merged! With a "click," these two "stones" combined into a massive shield!

Holding the shield, it moved forward steadily step by step. On the defensive wall, the soldiers fired at the enormous shield on its arms, but the defense organ was surprisingly tough. It not only blocked the power of the laser weapons but also reflected the lasers back.

Twenty-one Level 5 Strength-Type Zombies moved forward in unison, making it extremely difficult for the soldiers on the defensive wall to maneuver. Meanwhile, hiding among the horde, twenty-six Level 5 Speed Type zombies also seized the opportunity to move. Before the soldiers could react, these Speed Type zombies suddenly turned into a blur and dashed forward!

On the uneven ground below, these Level 5 Speed Type zombies moved so fast that their figures left a trail of afterimages.

The sergeant was the first to react, yelling urgently, "Quick! Block them!"

The soldiers hastily turned their guns and crazily shot at the Speed Type zombies, but most of their attacks were dodged, except for a few soldiers with precise shooting skills and some lucky ones who accidentally wounded or killed a few.

"I got one! I killed one!" a soldier suddenly shouted, his face uncontrollably joyful, but a glare from his sergeant made him quickly pretend to be calm.

Down below, twenty-seven Speed Type zombies left behind three or four bodies, but the other Speed Type zombies didn’t care about their fallen companions. With several Strength Type zombies in front blocking the gunfire, they were better able to preserve their own lives.

Under the resistance of these Level 5 Strength-Type Zombies, the horde behind them kept pushing forward, rapidly closing the gap to the defensive wall. Soon, the Strength-Type Zombies could no longer withstand it. One of them had its head pierced by a high-penetration laser sniper weapon, spraying black blood before falling to the ground.

As the first Level 5 zombie fell, soon the second, third, and fourth also fell due to being unable to continue resisting the fierce firepower of the soldiers. However, at last, several Speed Type zombies reached the barrier. They each extended their attack weapons, exerting their maximum force against the shield, but their power was insufficient—the outburst of force couldn’t make an impact.

Soon, the remaining few Level 5 Strength-Type Zombies also arrived at the shield, swinging their robust arms and punching out!

Bang!

A muffled sound echoed as the officers exchanged glances, and the one with the highest command authority shouted, "Initiate the second phase!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers didn’t panic when they saw the zombies had reached the barrier. They had been through this type of defensive action against the zombie horde more than once; they always encountered this situation. Furthermore, this was only the first defense line; there were still two more lines behind, enough to wear down most of the horde’s strength.

Once this wall broke, the zombies would enter the agricultural area, where everyone had already evacuated to the industrial area. These zombies entering the agricultural area would serve no purpose—they couldn’t exactly steal vegetables, could they?

A group of soldiers began lowering their aim to shoot at the zombies outside the barrier. Some soldiers, dressed differently from the others, picked up their weapons and were instantly covered by exoskeleton suits. Watching the zombies below, their next action was frightening—they actually jumped down from the defensive wall, though not inside, but outside.

For this, the soldiers did not worry about these few distinct soldiers because they were meant for this kind of job, and each one of them was a Level 6 New Human, dealing with those Level 5 zombies effortlessly.

As the soldiers watched these unique Level 6 New Human soldiers jump down, their corpse-cutting blades moved swiftly, and in no time, several Level 5 zombie heads were severed. These Level 6 New Humans casually extracted the Evolution Crystals from their brains and leaped back onto the defensive wall.
