Shelter, beneath the city wall.

One by one, agile mutated zombies leapt onto the fence, swiftly climbing upward, but the barbed wire caught on their rotting flesh, leaving them immobilized.

In that instant, the snipers riddled the zombies with bullet holes.

The bulky zombies were even easier to deal with.

They were the tallest in the zombie army, and could be spotted from afar with ease.

Their heads looked like targets painted for a bullseye.

Once spotted, soldiers eager for experience points blew their heads to pieces.

The soldiers focused all their energy on eliminating the mutated creatures, and as their numbers dwindled,

the advance of ordinary infected slowed down, their previous "seek and destroy" orders replaced by basic instincts.

Lin Yi pondered privately; he hadn't seen the Zombie General in two battles, it seemed the enemy's attention was focused on attacking the Beastman Race.

That's why he sent his Commander—the mutated zombie, to lead this group of infected.

While piercing the infected's skull with his one-handed sword, Lin Yi issued orders via radio.

"Hubert, while there's still a chance to gain experience, send some people over to level up."

"Roger, boss! Perfect time to test the spears Sylvie made!"

On the battlefield.

Three hundred more warriors joined the battle—one hundred soldiers from the city wall, and two hundred civilians.

Now that the bulky zombies were taken care of, the situation with the fence was barely manageable, but the number of zombies was still staggering...

Moreover, the spears were too long and difficult to thrust through the gaps in the fence, quite awkward to handle.

After an hour of combat.

The army of infected grew active again, increasing their assault on the fence.

Thus, the gunmen on the wall had no choice but to open fire.

This time, there were no bulky zombies, and the swift zombies were smart enough not to show themselves.

The shelter struggled to cope with the increasing attacks, and the fence finally began to deform...

Lin Yi decisively ordered: "Switch to submachine guns!"

"Yes, boss!"

The soldiers quickly rearmed themselves and opened fire.

The situation began to turn back in their favor!

The attack from ordinary infected started to weaken, but the mutated ones remained unseen.

It was hard to estimate whether the shelter would run out of bullets first or the enemy would be wiped out first.

Another hour passed.

The battle intensified!

"Retreat! Use melee weapons! If the situation becomes critical, throw incendiary bottles or hand grenades!"

As the first layer of the fence finally collapsed, the soldiers retreated to the second layer of the fence, but the number of zombies seemed as great as before...

The mutated creatures still did not appear, the soldiers began to tire, and their weapons needed maintenance...

At this moment, Lin Yi raised his hand.

"Listen up! Count to three, throw the incendiary bottles, then quickly fall back! One...two...three!"

Dozens of incendiary bottles flew over the fence, and a huge fire wall began to ravenously devour its prey.

The firewall consumed the entire frontline, reaching as high as 10 meters and continuously rising...

The first layer of the fence was completely consumed by the fire...

Under Lin Yi's command, the soldiers orderly retreated to the entrance of the second layer.

Some infected tried to charge through the flames but were quickly engulfed by the firewall, turning to ashes...

Hubert stood beside Lin Yi, looking at the frightening mass of zombies below the city wall, and asked:

"Do you think the Zombie General's plan is to exhaust our physical strength first, then deliver a fatal blow?"

"Yes!" Lin Yi's answer was simple and direct.

In the battle against the mutated Bear King, another Zombie General used this strategy.

But this Zombie General is stronger and smarter!

"I guess it has more interesting plans..." Lin Yi said as he started to assess the battlefield situation.

The soldiers were resting, Sylvie and her assistant were repairing system equipment, while Solomon and his men were handling other equipment.

In just ten minutes, the zombies broke through the molten fence ruins.

"Look!" Hubert suddenly pointed at the forest.

There, a group of mutated zombies was emerging from within—some of them were level 2!

"Break time's over, get on the wall!"

As soon as Lin Yi saw the massive "disaster flood" pouring out of the forest, he immediately ordered.

Compared to this, all the battles they had faced before seemed just like warm-ups...

At this time, a soldier reported: "Boss! They're building a zombie ladder!"

"If they climb to the middle of the wall, use hand grenades! Machine gunners, don't be distracted by ordinary infected—take out those mutated zombies!"

As the battle entered a more challenging phase, the city walls swiftly became packed with soldiers and civilians.

Below the wall, there were at least a hundred mutated zombies.

Ordinary mutated ones could be easily killed with arrows or bullets, but level 2 mutated ones were harder to deal with.

When one of the zombie ladders reached 30 meters, a small level 2 mutated creature hidden within the horde jumped onto the shoulders of ordinary infected.

Then it began jumping from one corpse to another, getting closer to the city wall.

The soldiers responded swiftly, firing immediately, but these agile zombies dodged their bullets, quickly climbing up the wall.

"Charge!"

With Lin Yi's command.

Three level 5 Beastmen began to fight.

The fingers of the mutated zombies were long and sharp, easily tearing through the beastmen's thick skin and effortlessly blocking attacks from level 2 swords.

Soon, the fight reached a stalemate.

Just then, three screamers joined the battle, they were all female—for some reason, all sound-attacking mutants were female...

They loved hiding in the horde, launching attacks! Showing no mercy to either enemy or zombie comrades.

"Shriek!!!"

With their scream—

Hundreds of infected fell to the ground, brains bursting, but soldiers also suffered heavy losses.

Dozens of soldiers' eardrums were damaged or ruptured, yet they continued fighting, enduring the excruciating pain.

Professor Mark and Martha, leading a medical team of ten staff, did their utmost to treat them.

Their main method of battlefield treatment was using Magical Lake Water, bandages, and splints.

They used the Magical Lake Water to treat wounds and let soldiers drink a bit. This method indeed proved effective, as the soldiers' pain subsided, and the wounds healed faster.

The battle raged on fiercely!

The soldiers followed the boss's orders—

Cut off the bottom of the zombie ladders!

Just killing a few zombies at the bottom would cause the entire ladder to collapse with a bang, then proceed to slay more zombies.

Everyone completely ignored the massive, heavy-armored mutants trying in vain to breach the city walls and gates.

Lin Yi ordered that every ten minutes, a Killing Cocktail Incendiary Bottle made by Louis be thrown, aiming to throw it as far from the city wall as possible.

The archers' explosive arrows and the mages' magic spells also played a critical role.

This was a perfect time for leveling up, with experience points proportional to the enemy's density, each attack could yield up to 50 experience points!
