CHAPTER TEXT:
"Two-in-One~~~" Ye Zhongming symbolically waved his hand in response to his subordinates.
The results of the battle were indeed significant. Within a very short time, they were able to kill two eighth-level beasts and hundreds of seventh-level ones. Such achievements would surely leave people in the national district astounded.
However, Ye Zhongming knew that it wasn’t his ability to kill so many powerful enemies in such a short time, but rather a result of his equipment advantage.
Two golden bullets and hundreds of blue and green bullets represented a substantial fortune. The micro-sculptor who worked alongside Ye Zhongming spent a year and an unknown amount of precious materials and potions to manufacture eight golden bullets. If taken outside, these would definitely be extremely valuable.
Therefore, this battle was more a testament to the power of equipment.
As Ye Zhongming quickly cleared the area of the Nine-Winged Crow descendants within a thousand-meter radius, a brief lull in the battle ensued. Aside from the tens of thousands of demon creatures still entangled with the zombie army, the entire gravel ground was devoid of life.
The ground was covered in layers of demon creature corpses, with some man-eating plant remains and traces of Cloud Summit traps occasionally visible.
Even though the apocalypse had begun over five years ago, and many warriors from Cloud Summit had experienced brutal battles like the zombie siege and Royal City defense, they were still shocked by the sight before them.
The thick stench of blood not only agitated the battle beasts within the Cloud Summit formation but also stirred the bloodlust within the evolvers.
Perhaps this was the nature of war during the apocalypse; once it became unavoidable, it could only be described as tragic and resolute.
The voices of some core members occasionally rang out as they attempted to comfort or motivate their subordinates in preparation for the upcoming great battle.
Ye Zhongming seized the moment to recover his physical and mental strength, as the real fight had yet to begin.
From time to time, Ye Zhongming would glance towards the mountains. The rolling dark clouds indicated that battles were still ongoing there. Due to the energy fluctuations, the Merit Medal could not contact Guangyao. However, judging by the current situation, Shadow should have succeeded.
This also meant that the loyal warrior who was severely injured and disabled for the sake of Cloud Summit, willingly becoming an experimental subject, had already sacrificed himself.
It was just unclear how many more such warriors would perish after this battle.
With the help of Li Qiang's shooting squad, the demon creatures entangled with the zombie army were quickly dealt with. There were only over ten thousand zombies left, all of which were of high levels. From what Ye Zhongming could see, they were mostly above level five, with some being level six and seven, and one even an eighth-level corpse ape guarding its mind.
Although the brain child had the ability to control zombies, it couldn’t misuse it. The number it could control was limited, and if too many were lost, as was the case now, there would be no way to replenish them in a short time. This would significantly decrease the self-protection capability of the brain child, which relied on a single type of mental power.
Watching its subordinates fall one after another, the brain child felt great pain, yet it had no choice but to obey orders since both Red Hair and Ye Zhongming could kill it.
After this batch of demon creatures was killed, many individuals emerged from Cloud Summit, rushing towards the pit with buckets of glass containers, pouring their contents inside.
These were powerful acidic liquids from Candy, which immediately corroded the demon creature corpses while leaving the magic crystals unharmed.
What was once a pit on the verge of being filled with corpses instantly transformed into a strong acid lake several meters deep.
But that wasn’t all; Ye Zhongming came over and sprinkled some specially treated seeds, which began to grow wildly upon landing in the acidic liquid, quickly turning into dense deep green plants.
