Upon seeing the actions of the Dawn Army, Wang Huining hesitated for a moment.

He was somewhat worried it was a trap because he'd experienced Ye Fan's cunning several times before.

But it didn't seem like it.

It was evident that the Dawn Army had hastily set up a platform and brought in a cannon.

Without a doubt, this must have been made hastily, so mechanical failures or some parts being unprepared were only natural.

This was an opportunity. If missed, once the Dawn Army repaired this cannon, there might never be another chance.

Should he take the risk?

Wang Huining had an inner conflict; after a brief struggle, he decided to go for it.

Without taking the risk, there would always be a lingering resentment in his heart.

"How many times can one seize an opportunity in life? If not today, then when?"

"Let's go for it!"

He crouched behind the back of another King Kong, instructing Xing Hai to lead another Crawler and an army of fifty thousand zombies for one last assault on Dawn City!

If it didn't work this time, he would immediately flee.

Though this time there was only one wave of zombies, the intensity of the attack was unprecedented.

The number reached fifty thousand, among which the number of Mutated Zombies was five thousand!

Wang Huining had been keeping the Mutated Zombies that had undergone a single mutation nearby and now released all of them at once!

Even if the Dawn Army fired all their weapons at this moment, the city wall would face a severe test!

The overwhelming wave of zombies spread toward the city wall, and Wang Huining let the Iron Armors shield their heads with stones, with the Agilities following behind to dodge bullets. Though their advance was slow, it was proceeding smoothly.

Soon, the wave of corpses approached within three kilometers of the city wall.

This distance was where the rocket launchers unleashed their fury. Once they got past this section, they would enter the range of firearms.

If they got through successfully, victory would beckon to Wang Huining.

Wang Huining didn't dare to follow too closely, keeping nine kilometers away, beyond the range of rocket launchers.

The Dawn Army didn't focus their attacks on him, instead targeting Xing Hai.

The five-meter-tall Xing Hai strode forward, receiving the brunt of the cannon fire.

But this time, whether it was the rocket launchers, mortars, or bazookas, none could inflict lethal damage on Xing Hai.

Advancing through the smoke and fire, surrounded by the roar of explosions, Xing Hai's body was scorched black.

Only when cannon fire concentrated on its front could it sustain minor injuries and be pushed back a bit.

Xing Hai got up and continued forward, having taken at least ten hits along the way without any significant harm.

"Hahaha! The Dawn Army is finished this time!"

He instructed Xing Hai to advance as much as possible toward the land gate, remembering there was a terrifying giant octopus at the Water Gate.

With Xing Hai's height, there was no need to climb any piles of corpses; a single move of its claws could flip it over.

After suffering losses of over ten thousand zombies due to bombardment, the wave finally reached the city wall.

Even with fifty thousand zombies in this wave, no matter how fierce the Dawn Army's firepower, they couldn't resist.

And Xing Hai finally reached the vicinity of the city wall.

Wang Huining stood at a distance with hundreds of zombies, watching with a smile on his face.

Victory was within sight.

As long as Xing Hai got in and caused some destruction, he could take advantage and enter Dawn City as well.

At this moment, he looked at the high cannon platform behind Dawn City.

The firefighters had completed their rescue work.

The cannon seemed not much damaged.

But Wang Huining believed the cannon could no longer fire.

Xing Hai's claw rested on the city wall.

With a push of its claw, its huge body reached the top of the city wall!

Then, something happened that terrified Wang Huining once again.

All he heard was a loud bang as the cannon fired again!

A shell streaked like a meteor over the city wall, directly taking away half of Xing Hai's body!

The zombie body, which had evolved to the third stage, still couldn't withstand this killing weapon. One arm and the left side of its body were shattered under the armor-piercing shell's impact!

The giant body spun in the air and fell off the city wall.

And in the distance, near Star River, water suddenly churned as the giant octopus burst out of the water.

With long tentacles, it rushed to the main gate, dragging the severely injured Xing Hai into the river.

Xing Hai wasn't dead and tried to resist Xiaoba.

Though Xiaoba was in a No-Star state, it was not something the severely injured Xing Hai could withstand, and it was forcefully dragged into the river by Xiaoba.

The river churned, and blood splashed, and Xing Hai never came out again.

This time, Wang Huining was completely dumbfounded.

He understood everything.

He should never have held such wishful thinking; it was all a trap set by the Dawn Army and that liar Ye Fan.

This cannon had a second shell.

This Giant Cannon was too powerful, but its accuracy was worse than those with smaller calibers. The first shot that pierced the mound killing the Crawler had an element of luck, after all, they weren't prepared.

Now, with Xing Hai and him prepared, it couldn't effectively kill at a long distance.

So Ye Fan deliberately lured Xing Hai under the city wall, ensuring accuracy from a close distance.

How laughable that he thought the Dawn Army had exhausted its means, not realizing there was a hidden deadly move.

The painstakingly crafted Xing Hai was now lost, and even if Wang Huining could escape, who knew when he could create another Xing Hai?

But Wang Huining had no retreat.

The zombie horde was piled under Dawn City. If he didn't attack and turned to flee, they'd become live targets.

The only way was to continue attacking fiercely, breaking the Dawn Army's city wall; if he could get into the city, there would still be a chance for everything.

He was already riding a tiger and had no choice but to fight desperately!

Ordering the zombies to continue the frenzied attack, he was already in a death struggle.

But it must be said, so many zombies have brought immense pressure to the Dawn Army.

The piles of bodies under the city wall accumulated once again. After losing more than twenty thousand, the zombies were finally about to scale the walls.

Ye Fan, standing at the turret, decisively gave the order.

Retreat!

It wasn't that they couldn't hold the position, but there was no need to suffer casualties.

With the battle at this point, Ye Fan needed to consider how to achieve victory at the lowest cost.

The Dawn Army immediately retreated, pulling back directly to the walls of the core district to begin setting up the second line of defense.

As for the survivors, Ye Fan directly ordered them all to approach the resource recovery station.

The resource recovery station had a huge warehouse, which easily housed a thousand or eight hundred people. It was recessed toward the core area, and once inside with the iron door closed, they couldn't see what was happening in the core district.

As the survivors and Dawn Army retreated, from afar, Wang Huining watched, thinking victory was at hand.

He was wildly ecstatic, as two days of fierce attacks finally brought him this moment of triumph; the Dawn Army couldn't hold on.

Once they enter the city, isn't it theirs to slaughter?

He hurriedly had the King Kong Zombie carry him and rushed toward Dawn City.

Of course, he was constantly wary of the Giant Cannon. In fact, as long as you keep an eye on it, you can dodge at the slightest movement; it's tough for the cannon to hit you.

He reached underneath Dawns City without a hitch.

The crowd of zombies was already climbing up the walls.

With King Kong carrying him, Wang Huining got onto the wall as well.

If he still had the nerves for crying, he would be shedding tears.

It turned out the Dawn Army had another wall inside!

Between the two walls, the city area was now completely empty.

The Dawn Army had set up a defense line on the second wall, like a steel fortress.

The more than twenty thousand zombies under his command couldn't possibly breach the main city district to threaten the core district.

Standing atop the high turret, Ye Fan extended a hand toward Wang Huining.

Raised his middle finger and slightly curled it.

Shouted loudly,

"Come over here!"

Wang Huining's throat moved up and down for a while before he spoke two words.

"It's over...."

Before the words fell, gunfire erupted from the Dawn Army's side!

The heavy machine guns at the guard towers behind the defense never had a chance to be used until now. They were finally getting a chance, almost eager to shoot out all the bullets at once.

The zombies, unable to advance or retreat on the walls, had no ability to counterattack and were blasted off like dumplings.

Without a word, Wang Huining abandoned all the zombies and had the King Kong Zombie carry him, retreating along the same path he came.

The remaining over twenty thousand zombies were just cannon fodder, meant to delay the Dawn Army, giving him a chance to escape.

The zombies faithfully fulfilled Wang Huining's intention, continuously climbing the walls, becoming targets for the Dawn Army.

Even over twenty thousand zombies would take a while to shoot, buying him a bit of time.

But Ye Fan didn't plan to let Wang Huining escape just like that.

He didn't intend to use the Giant Cannon on Wang Huining; aside from the issue of accurately hitting him, Ye Fan had questions for this zombie leader.

The secret of zombie evolution, Ye Fan intended to research, so he wanted to capture him alive.

The opponent only had one King Kong Zombie left, without any cover, it was no longer a concern.

Ye Fan ordered the armored forces to deploy.

He personally stood on a T5 tank, exited from the side door, and chased out of the city!

Two tanks and Iron Armor coordinated with each other, with Iron Armor reaching Wang Huining first, starting to sweep with machine-gun fire.

The King Kong Zombie was slow, quickly overtaken by the tanks.

The tank's main gun fired continuously, breaking the King Kong Zombie's leg.

Wang Huining, the zombie leader, finally fell to the ground!

Ye Fan ordered the tanks to fire again, to finish off the King Kong Zombie completely.

Then, Ye Fan jumped down from the tank and walked step by step toward Wang Huining.

Bald head, one-armed, one-legged, Wang Huining stared venomously at Ye Fan.

Ye Fan looked down at Wang Huining: "I think we can talk."

"Dream on!" Wang Huining's voice was hoarse.

"I'm just a zombie now, with limbs torn and a ragged life, alive but a fate worse than death. Since I can't kill you, I might as well die. Besides, I feel no pain, no human sensations. If you want to kill me, go ahead and see if I'm afraid?"

Ye Fan smiled slightly, squatting in front of Wang Huining.

He extended a hand: "I think you can still be saved, let me help you up."

Wang Huining's eyes lit up!

Ye Fan actually dared to extend a hand in front of him!

This was the perfect chance to infect the other!

As long as he could control Ye Fan through infection, it might turn the tables for him.

He quickly changed his expression, pretending to sincerely extend a hand to Ye Fan.

A human hand clasped with a zombie's claw.

Wang Huining's nails curved, slashing casually!

Ye Fan's skin broke and bled!

At this moment, Wang Huining couldn't help but laugh out loud!

"Hahaha~~~! Ye Fan! Fool! Now you've been infected by me, we're soon to be the same! I've finally gotten my revenge!"

"Hmm...what's this?"

Halfway through laughing, Wang Huining paused, because he saw Ye Fan was also smiling, and when he scratched Ye Fan, there was a syringe in Ye Fan's hand, with a red gel-like substance, injecting it into his body!

Zombies have no pain, too busy laughing to notice.
