Chapter 247: Cloud Peak Defence part 2
Screams rang out from the defense line.
The Spike Demon’s attacks, along with the stone from the Ape Zombies, at least killed a dozen people. A few evolved were dead too.
The defense line was in the most chaos since the battle began.
“Defend, defend, hold on! Calm, if we lose control, we will all die!”
Mo ye ran around to stabilize the defense. The gun in her hand continued to fire, killing zombie after zombie.
Ye Zhongming’s sniper rifle fired quickly too. Including two Ape Zombies, he mercilessly finished any threatening target.
After Ye Zhongming’s precise and vicious attacks, the higher-level zombie momentum slowed, reducing their threat to the defense line. The survivors calmed down, and their shots became even fiercer.
But the zombie horde took this chance to push forwards, and they were now 30 meters from the line!
This distance. You could see the flesh in their mouths as long as you weren't short-sighted.
“Normal people retreat to the 3rd line! Evolved, remain here and defend!”
Mo Ye saw the horde cross a warning line. She fired while shouting. The two helpers she chose started to reorganize the ordinary warriors to retreat.
A portion of the horde collapsed. The hidden moats in front of the defense line were useful, and many zombies fell in. This moat was different from the ones they used in the grain battle. Time was of the essence previously, and those were simple moats. This time, there were wooden spikes and iron rods inside. As long as you fell in, even if you didn’t die, you would get pierced and stuck there.
Moreover, they had enough time, so the moats were deep. A thousand of the zombie hoard fell at once.
But before the humans could cheer, the horde used their numbers to feel the hoard. They stepped on their comrades and continued to push forwards.
The survivors continued to fire and tried their best to slow down the zombies.
Only half an hour passed since the start of the fight. The first line killed over 3000 zombies, but that was too little compared to the 20 thousand horde.
The first defense line had the most people and the one with the highest morale. There were also many traps here. But this line didn’t even last an hour before they faced problems.
Ye Zhongming was helpless. Although he told his men to fire, the outcome was much worse than he expected due to their lack of skills. Moreover, their attacks weren't too effective without grenades that could deal AOE damage.
In his last life, one would fight against the horde up close after shooting. Evolved were mostly job users, and their levels were high, so they were used to fighting them face to face. The battle methods were different from now. If he followed the past, these evolved would have to charge forwards to attack the horde and then retreat. But the current evolved didn’t have that ability.
After losing the firepower suppression, the horde moved forward faster and was 20 meters away. The survivors started to retreat. This distance was one that some high-level zombies could instantly cross. If they didn't leave, accidents might occur.
After emptying the ammo, a dozen evolved retreated very quickly. They would head to the second line, and after resting up, they would continue to fight. They would also trigger those traps in front of the defense line.
Mo Ye would lead people to the third defense line. Little Tiger and Ye Zhongming would lead the evolved to the second line.
Liang Chuyin was in charge of the second defense line. She was not as immature as before and had grown into someone that could lead like Xia Lei and Mo Ye. Moreover, in terms of personality, she was more decisive. Compared to Mo Ye, she was more vicious. Ye Zhongming even saw a bit of Xia Bai on her body.
Moreover, Liang Chuyin was among the most loyal people to Ye Zhongming, apart from Xia Bai. This loyalty was different from that of Mo Ye and Xia Lei. She didn’t have principles or a bottom line and would listen to what he said. She wouldn’t care about why she was doing something, just about how to do something.
Under Liang Chuyin’s control, the second defense line was more stable. She used her whip to tell them that whoever dared to retreat even a little would be smacked into pieces.
The evolved increased the confidence of the ordinary soldiers here.
As the evolved fought while retreating, when Ye Zhongming and the others got here, the zombie horde was already not far away.
With the previous fighting experience, the evolved fired first. Although the horde didn’t fall into huge patches again, they died at speed. Nearly 100 evolved; dozens of zombies would get killed each time they fired. When the horde was a hundred meters away, another 300-400 were dead.
This was the strength of evolved. As their body qualities improved, their advantage in battle would be on full display.
Intense gunshots rang out once again. Flesh and blood flying could be seen in the eyes of the survivors once again.
But this time, more people were prepared. The shots didn’t stop, and even looked like they were getting stronger and stronger.
Even if Liang Chuyin shouted for them to maintain the shooting accuracy, they still held down the trigger.
Bullets flew out like they were free.
Honestly, Young Master Yun and his men were shocked. Cloud Peak gave them some bullets. Although it was only a few boxes, it showed them how rich they were. The shots alone could trade for two bottles of one-star evolution potion.
But after the battle started, they saw that the ordinary people had an endless supply of bullets. They felt this wasn’t a battle; they were tossing money.
Young Master Yun was terrified of their strength. If they won, Cloud Peak would earn at least 20 thousand level one crystal, and there would be at least a hundred level two and some level three. Based on the rate of 100 crystals for one potion, they would have 200 potions.
200!
Adding in all the evolved would be a huge number, right?
In other words, if they won, Cloud Peak would be the strongest faction nearby. That didn’t include the hundred evolved they had before!
These people were too terrifying.
Young Master Yun and the others decided not to have conflicts with them as they would get wiped out.
When the battle at the defense line started, Sha Sha and her men, Xia Bai and Yellow Ball, entered their predetermined positions.
