“Thank you to the 588 friends from the North of Tianmen and many others, including Lingnan!”
At this moment, the road leading to Cloud Summit Villa was already filled with zombies. Due to the slope, many defenders at the main gate witnessed a spine-chilling scene.
Intelligence had reported a small horde of zombies moving towards them, numbering over twenty thousand.
However, that was just information; seeing these monsters ready to take their lives in groups was a feeling unimaginable for those who had never experienced it.
“There are more here than when the Auckland Arena emptied out,”
murmured a survivor who had lived in America and had seen a game at the Warriors’ home ground, staring at the zombies on the road below.
“The Auckland Arena can hold nineteen thousand people, so it’s still less than this zombie tide,” Liu Zhenghong replied, still wearing her white coat, though it looked much cleaner this time, her face also washed up, appearing fresh. Her hands remained in her pockets.
Nevertheless, this middle-aged woman still had a tendency to be pedantic; upon hearing the discussion among the defenders, she felt compelled to retort.
The survivor looked back and realized it was the doctor Boss Ye had brought back; he opened his mouth but said nothing, thinking to himself that it was only a few thousand less—did she really need to point that out?
“But now the number has decreased, only just over ten thousand,”
Liu Zhenghong stated, and those around her felt a jolt. Everyone was afraid; they had gone hunting before, but they had only faced hundreds or thousands of zombies at most, which was enough to send them fleeing. Now, facing this quantity was a daunting prospect, making normal people anxious and fearful.
“Does that mean we are definitely going to win?”
the same person asked, his eyes shining with hope.
Liu Zhenghong nodded and then shook her head, “That’s the normal situation, but I need to take a look.”
“Liu Jie, Zhong Ming is calling for you,”
Xia Lei interrupted the conversation as she pulled Liu Zhenghong over to Ye Zhongming, disregarding some minor details in this crisis.
Once they reached near Ye Zhongming, Liu Zhenghong started hearing casualty figures, such as over a hundred ordinary people dead and more than thirty evolvers killed, primarily during the attacks from second-level and tier 3 zombies on the third line of defense.
“According to what you said, the time should be about right now, right?” Ye Zhongming suddenly turned to Liu Zhenghong.
“Just about.”
“Then let’s begin.”
Many people didn’t understand the conversation between the two but didn’t ask questions. Instead, they watched as the woman with multiple expert titles in medicine, evolutionary science, and biology closed her eyes, spread her arms, and tilted her head upward slightly.
In the next moment, a faint eye the size of a human head appeared above Liu Zhenghong, initially closed before slightly opening a slit, shooting out a gaze directly towards the approaching horde.
Liu Zhenghong was a celestial vision practitioner, and the skill she activated now was called super vision, a sight ability allowing long-distance vision unaffected by obstructions. Perhaps Liu Zhenghong herself didn’t realize how good her profession was, but Ye Zhongming knew that many of the upcoming professional skills were incredibly powerful. Among these formidable skills, only one or two were combat-oriented, while the majority were support types. For others, they might be useless, but for a scientist, they were simply…
However, regardless of the skill, every profession had a long cooldown time. The first super vision skill was no exception; after observing the monster-occupied armory, it had only just completed its cooldown period.
The zombie horde had begun to push the heavy trucks blocking their way off the road, gradually revealing the path to the villa’s main gate.
Among the horde were very particular zombies, some very large, some very small, some brightly colored, and some grotesque. Each one was filled with danger; each was a killer.
