There's no denying the Runner's charge was truly ferocious, so much so that the iron gate continued to shake long after its "scream," making just watching it terrifying.

Perhaps due to the barrier of the iron gate, the Runner, who initially thought this pounce would secure its prey, was exceptionally agitated when it missed, transforming into a frenzied battering on the gate.

There's no doubt that this "evolved" Runner, when compared to the initial state of Pacers, has seen a significant increase in both strength and speed, which is evident from its fierce assault rate.

Furthermore, it's nearly certain that if this Pacer isn't dealt with quickly, even though it can't operate the door in its mindless state, such ferocious battering could easily jar open an unsecured iron gate.

What to do? How exactly can we stop this massive Hell Legion?

Watching the vast Black Shadow press closer behind the Pacer, Tang Xiaoquan fell into contemplation, a drop of sweat involuntarily sliding down his brow.

And it seemed Heaven wasn't planning to give the Survivors any respite, because as they were frantically dealing with the iron gate in front, footsteps began to echo in the previously silent City Management Bureau.

Every hair on his body stood on end when the first twisted figure emerged from the shadowy pathway, and Zhao Yunhai's right hand, holding the knife, instinctively tightened.

As the only armed man in the team, Zhao Yunhai knew the weight of his responsibility well. He had to protect his teammates. He took a deep breath, eyes fixed forward, ready to fight the hordes.

But just as he was about to charge at the zombies, a low voice suddenly came from behind him: "Hey! Old Zhao, cut my rope!"

In the moment of shock, Wei Dazhuang's robust figure had already appeared before Zhao Yunhai.

Knowing Wei Dazhuang's "glorious deeds" of the past, Zhao Yunhai was naturally well aware of them. So frankly, he was a bit hesitant to untie the other's bindings.

After all, Wei Dazhuang has a "mortal enemy" with the undead, and unbinding him might unleash a beast.

And being a man with a family, like many here, Zhao Yunhai could empathize more than most with Wei Dazhuang's pain of losing his wife and daughter. He could also imagine the fury with which a freed Wei Dazhuang would face the zombies.

So, Old Zhao hesitated, but at this moment, with "the arrow on the string," how could Wei Dazhuang abandon his original intention due to the other's hesitation?

Seeing Zhao Yunhai stand dumbfounded without any action, Wei Dazhuang immediately shook his bound hands behind him and turned to urge: "Hey! Old Zhao! What the hell are you doing standing there like an idiot? Hurry and untie me! Damn beasts are coming up!"

At this point, Old Zhao almost instinctively placed the knife on the hemp rope.

There was no choice; at this critical moment, he couldn't very well refuse to unbind him.

If he did insist on refusing, it would undoubtedly lead to an endless stream of curses.

And if that happened, it would definitely worsen their already precarious situation.

So given the current internal and external difficult predicament, the only way to defeat the enemy had to be unity!

Accompanied by Wei Dazhuang's earth-shattering shout, the half-cut hemp rope was forcibly torn off by him.

Watching the robust man twisting in place, loosening his joints, Old Zhao took a deep breath.

Because he knew very well, from this moment, a beast had been awakened!

And almost as Dazhuang freed himself from his bindings, the vibration of the iron gate intensified, and the tightly shut door began to show signs of parting.

Although Wu Chao and Wang Qiang were straining to brace it from both sides, this could only be a temporary measure. When the zombie horde arrived, even if they wanted to hold it, there would be no place to start.

Wei Dazhuang glanced at the threatening Runners outside the gate, and as their "arrogant" movements danced, his eyes gradually turned cold.

He scanned the surroundings unhurriedly, then stepped towards the wall-mounted fire hydrant box on the side.

Holding his breath, concentrating, then suddenly rushing forward, with a crisp shattering sound, Wei Dazhuang's right foot smashed through the glass cover of the fire hydrant box.

After completing this act of vandalism, as if unconcerned, Dazhuang stepped forward, ignoring the remaining shards around the box, and reached in to take out the red fire axe stored inside.

Almost instinctively, he weighed it a few times, perhaps feeling the axe's weight wasn't as comfortable as the Scythe, his thick eyebrows knit tightly.

But these changes only lasted a few seconds, for he knew very well why he needed the axe.

So...

"Move aside!!" His deep voice was indisputable. After making the pondering Tang Xiaoquan step back, Wei Dazhuang's aura suddenly changed. As if a Celestial God descended, he lifted the red axe high and, with an overwhelming momentum, cleaved it down.

The red giant axe slashed through the air, emitting a deep screeching; the Runner seemed to realize the descent of "Death" from above.

Though its degenerated brain couldn't comprehend that this "Death" would take its life.

It raised its head "devoutly," its arms flailing in the air as if to embrace the Hell "Creator," but alas, its excitement was short-lived. With the sound of the axe smashing through flesh, the Runner froze in place, a dazzling Blood Sword spraying from its cheek.

Wei Dazhuang coldly regarded the dying creature before him, mercilessly lifting the axe handle upwards.

As the axe blade withdrew, the previously suppressed blood gushed forth like a breached dam, pouring ceaselessly from the wound.

Finally, the Runner, robbed of its support, slumped weakly against the iron gate, and under the survivors' gaze, it slid to the ground, ending its "sinful" life.

Tang Xiaoquan numbly stared at the scene before him. There's no denying Dazhuang's actions were indeed fierce, no! To be precise, it was terrifying.

And this terror wasn't entirely beneficial for the team; it often signified "danger"!

But considering the present circumstances, Tang Xiaoquan immediately relaxed. After all, no matter how "dangerous" Wei Dazhuang might be, it probably didn't affect their immediate predicament.

On the contrary, if they could harness Dazhuang's "danger," they might just find a way to survive through the dire straits!
