Chapter 2032 A Heavy Siege
On the southern city wall, the guards did not even know that the interior of Bright Wood City had been breached!
They stood on the city wall, watching the approaching undead army outside the city, their hearts filled with anxiety.
What surprised them even more was that the city had been breached without them realizing it, and the attack came from behind!
Immediately, the entire city wall fell into chaos.
Outside Bright Wood City, Commander Guranqi was still leading the army of the Holy Court to resist stubbornly. Suddenly, he heard the discussion of the player behind him. He could not help but frown and look behind him.
What the hell!
Seeing the scene on the city wall behind Bright Wood City, Guranqi’s back was drenched in sweat instantly!!
He was still trying his best to delay the zombies, but he didn’t expect that Bright Wood City would fall first!
What was going on?
Was City Lord Seno a useless person?!
Before he could figure it out, two guards rushed over and reported, “Sir, there has just been a riot in Bright Wood City. We are unable to contact Bright Wood City. I’m afraid it has fallen.”
Fallen?!
Without any movement, he was still waiting for Duncha’s reinforcements to arrive, but only two batches came, and then he received the news of the city falling.
D*mn it!
Why was it so fast?
Guranqi blamed his stupid teammates in his heart. Suddenly, he thought of something and turned his head to look in the direction of Bright Wood City.
At first glance, the city wall was filled with people. However, upon closer inspection, it was not the city guards gathered on the city wall. Instead, it was a vast expanse of zombies!
Bright Wood City had already been conquered by the undead!
Not good!
Their current position was extremely dangerous. Once Bright Wood City was completely lost, they were very likely to face a pincer attack from the zombies!
Guranqi instantly became alert and he immediately waved his hand, saying, “Spread the order, retreat immediately to the right, bypass Bright Wood City, and retreat in the direction of Cohen County! Abandon Bright Wood City!”
“Yes!!”
The order was quickly issued, and the Holy Court team immediately maintained their original formation. They slowly changed their pace and began to retreat in another direction.
The players in the army realized that the team had started to retreat. At first, they did not understand what was going on. They wondered why they were suddenly giving up on Bright Wood City.
After all, the players had come to earn a large sum of contribution points.
They didn’t expect to see Fang Heng’s terrifying zombie horde on the battlefield. They immediately gave up on their original plan and only wanted to mix in with the team.
They followed the army wherever they went. Since they were already here, they should get as much as they could. Therefore, they also changed their direction and retreated.
Unexpectedly, just a few minutes after the team retreated, a dark and dense mass poured out from Bright Wood City not far away.
Zombie horde!
When the players saw the zombie crowd, they felt their scalps go numb.
Why were there zombies everywhere?
In the next second, the players received a game notification that Bright Wood City had fallen.
What the hell!
Why did Bright Wood City suddenly fall?
Also, why were so many zombies surging out of Bright Wood City?
What the hell!
In just a short while, as Guranqi led his team to gradually change their direction and retreat, the two groups of zombies in front of them merged into one and rushed towards them again.
What a terrifying zombie horde!
How many did they have?
Fang Heng was among the layers of zombies, looking at the army of the Holy Court from afar.
He thought that it would take some effort to gather the zombie clones, but he didn’t expect the people of the Holy Court to be so smart. They knew that they couldn’t defeat the zombie clones and simply gave up.
This was for the best. He had bought himself more time!
The fault tolerance rate was even higher!
Fang Heng planned a new route for the zombies under his command. He controlled the zombies to pass through Bright Wood City as a passing point, then left Bright Wood City and continued to advance toward the center of the Empire.
The army of the Holy Court soon realized the changes in the zombie crowd.
Commander Guranqi and Commander Eloda, who had rushed over to provide support, led their subordinates and gathered together. They looked in the direction of Bright Wood City at the same time.
The zombie crowd moved strangely.
Why did they have to make a transfer in the direction of Bright Wood City?
The two of them looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other’s eyes.
Could it be a way for the undead to control the zombies?
No matter what, this change had no effect on the battle they were about to face.
If they couldn’t beat them before, they still can’t beat them now!
The only thing they could do was to consume energy and delay the zombie crowd.
Guranqi, who had never fought such a battle before, never expected to be so overwhelmed by these low-level undead creatures. He felt extremely frustrated and, with a hint of concealed anger in his tone, asked, “Any news from the Commander? When will the reinforcement team arrive?
“Report! The front-line reinforcement team led by Army Commander Fidel and Captain Gilen encountered an undead team about 10 minutes ago and is currently engaging in battle with the undead creatures.”
Already arrived?
Why couldn’t they be seen?
Guranqi frowned and looked at the front line from afar. However, there was only a black mass in front of him. He could not see anything except for the dense zombie crowd.
In the army, a judge of the Holy Court who could fly at a high altitude for a short time observed from the sky for a moment before slowly landing. His expression was a little strange.
Guranqi asked, “Did you see the zombie crowd clearly?”
The judge took a deep breath and shook his head.
He couldn’t see clearly at all. He could only see that it was densely packed with zombie creatures. He couldn’t see the end at all!
Eloda frowned, and asked one of his subordinates, “Where exactly are the front-line reinforcements located?”
The subordinate hesitated for a moment before reporting, “According to the information, they are currently in the area of Barnwood Town.”
What?!
Barnwood Town?!
Hearing this, the surrounding people revealed incomparably shocked expressions.
Barnwood Town was more than 30 kilometers away from here!
In that case…
Could it be…
The undead creatures had already spread for more than 30 kilometers!
Where did so many undead creatures come from?
Yet, he still had to deal with this strange battle!
Guranqi felt as if he had seen a ghost and shouted, “Continue retreating! We need more people to deal with these undead creatures! We need more support teams, as many as you have!”
“Yes, sir! Understood!”
…
In Bright Wood City, the players blocked the entrance of the teleportation portal.
The reinforcements from the Holy Court were wiped out one by one.
The undead faction players who came with Li Qingran to assist as frontline fighters kept seeing game hints refreshing on their retinas.
Wave after wave of killing rewards were collected into their pockets.
Refreshing!
After dealing with the threat outside the city, Fang Heng quickly returned.
Seeing that the teleportation passage was still running, Fang Heng nodded at the player of the Holy Court who was controlling the control instruments and said, “Stop for a moment. Send a reverse teleportation request to the other side.”
