Chapter 58: The Attack’s Sudden Stop
While Enoch was analyzing the current situation, the third wave of the invasion had yet to be completed.
However, the rhythm of the invasion suddenly quieted down after the Digger.
“Squeak! (The invasion is over!)”
“(I feel less alarmed!) Squeak!”
“Yeah, I know.” Enoch nodded and then signaled for the Berserk Rats and the Pea Shooters to stay alert, not letting any changes in the Divine Tree Island go unnoticed.
At that moment, Lightning led the 80 Berserk Rats in front of the Pea Shooters and were on high alert!
As for Enoch, he stood at the back with the remaining 19 Berserk Rats to prevent the Digger from appearing again.
This time, he had a rough idea of the rhythm and pattern of the invasion.
This time, the Netherworld’s forces would only enter from a single direction. In other words, they only needed to defend one direction to completely defend against the invasion.
This was probably the novice rule that the Divine Tree had set in order to protect the Divine Tree Masters. If this time it came from all directions, even Enoch could not guarantee that he would be able to defend against it.
It would be easy to kill the monsters, but it would be really scary if he couldn’t see the monsters around him.
Therefore, Enoch was really glad that he had made a lot of preparations before this.
However, he couldn’t relax until the last moment and kept warning himself.
Little did he know that a short zombie in a tattered evening dress was looking at the entrance of Enoch’s Divine Tree Island with a serious face.
“Don’t you get it yet!?”
Its dry face was full of wrinkles. It looked more like a mummy than a zombie because all the moisture in its body had been drained. Therefore, it looked very gloomy, especially in this dark fog where the visibility was very low. It looked even darker and more terrifying due to the absence of light.
[Mutant Zombie: Commander]
[Skills: Zombie Control, Intelligent Brain, Virus Spray]
[Combat strength: C]
[Description: after being strengthened by the black fog, the brain is more developed and has a certain level of intelligence. It has also strengthened its strategic intelligence, which is unusually cunning and cruel.]
That’s right—it was the zombie that was leading the third attack wave. Although its combat strength was not high, the role of the Commander was to command.
It could allow the D-zombies to display their C advantages. It could organize the zombies and command them to attack with a rhythm and follow battle tactics. It could also reduce the zombies’ losses and let the zombies win step by step.
Therefore, the Commander didn’t fight. It could attract the surrounding zombies to work for it. The longer it stood there, the more zombies would be attracted to it.
It had been 20 minutes since the third wave of attack.
Excluding the Commander’s third wave of zombies, the number of zombies attracted to it had reached 30!
Including the zombies the Commander had brought, there were at least 50 zombies!
If they attacked at the same time, the Divine Tree Island would become a little crowded!
The Commander hadn’t sent too many zombies just now. It was just a small test. After all, it had a strategy.
It knew that the number of zombies was the key to the invasion. The previous two waves of invasions hadn’t had any significant effect because they were brainless.
What was the use of that? Could it be that the invasion would succeed?
Since it was the Commander of the third wave, the situation before the invasion wouldn’t happen again.
The reason it had sent out a few zombies was to check the size of the Divine Tree territory, the area, the opponent’s position, and so on.
If it remained there, the Commander would be connected to the zombies that were attracted to it through a similar spiritual link. In other words, as the Commander, it could also clearly understand what the other zombies saw.
Therefore, it now knew Enoch’s Divine Tree Island like the back of its hand.
“99 pets, 13 defensive plants… No, 15…
“Are there any more Divine Tree Masters with special abilities?
“This is troublesome.”
The Commander had a melancholic look on its face. Its long fingernails were clipping its scalp, making uncomfortable sounds as if it was very difficult.
It did have a slight headache. It never thought that the first invasion would be as terrifying as the development of the Divine Tree Master in just five days.
If it were anyone else, the invasion today would probably end in failure.
However, although it was very troublesome, the Commander wasn’t very worried.
What was it waiting for now?
If this method was feasible, it could guarantee that it would be the strongest wave of this invasion!
At the same time…
Enoch was waiting for the zombie invasion, but there was no response for more than 20 minutes.
He immediately looked at the world channel.
“The third wave is finally over. It scared me to death. I almost thought that I wouldn’t be able to survive it!”
“Me too, I was scared to death. I had to prepare for it, or else I wouldn’t have been able to defeat it.”
“Hahaha! You guys are too cowardly. I can kill a small zombie with one punch. It’s only a matter of a dozen punches. What’s there to be afraid of!?”
“I’m just saying. The third wave of invasion is quite scary. However, I feel that as long as I’m prepared for it in the next few days, it won’t be difficult.”
“…”
Enoch saw that the world channel was already talking about the end of the third wave, and his face was full of surprise.
Wait! free webnovel.com
The third wave had ended!?
Why hadn’t he received any notification from the Divine Tree? Moreover, the zombies he had killed in the third wave were obviously much fewer than the previous two waves.
He still didn’t know what the connection was.
“Be on high alert!”
After Enoch gave the order to the Berserk Rats, he immediately opened the private chat function.
Enoch: “Alice, is your third wave of invasion over?”
Enoch didn’t receive any response to the message he had sent, so he had to make a judgment about this. Either Alice was too lazy to answer this question, or the third wave of invasion had not been resolved yet.
However, it was also possible that since the two of them were only in a cooperative relationship, the other party would not inform him.
The other party had no obligation to disclose this piece of information, especially something so personal. freew ebnovel.com
Suppose someone as cautious and judgmental as Enoch knew that the other party had resolved the invasion. In that case, they could deduce the possibility of the other party’s ability through the time it took them.
If it took less time, then it meant that Alice’s combat ability was higher.
However, he did not have the time to speculate about these things.
He could only hope that Alice would reply to this message as soon as possible so that Enoch could judge the current situation!
