Chapter 584 Zombie Retreat
The people on the northern wall of Divine Tree City were on the verge of collapse.
The height of the zombie corpses was already equal to that of the eighty-meter Saber Hand Fortress. The zombies that surged up from outside the city would be able to cross through the gap between the mutated trees and enter the city in one step.
None of them knew what awaited them in the next moment.
At this critical moment, another piece of desperate news was spreading-City Lord Dong Junwei was bitten by a zombie!
Dong Junwei climbed up the city wall last night at dusk and never went down.
As the lord of a city, he knew how important he was! More than half of the soldiers guarding Shenshu City had died. Now, the main force guarding the city had become the young civilians! They did not receive military training, nor did they have a strong will. Once they had fear in their hearts, they would be defeated.
Therefore, Dong Junwei wanted to climb up the city wall, be with everyone, and personally supervise the battle to express his determination to coexist with Shenshu City.
This method had indeed had a certain effect. Although people kept dying, no one had ever thought of retreating. This was because their fear had already been diluted by the hot blood in their bodies.
However, there is a saying, how can you not wet your shoes if you always walk by the river?
While Dong Junwei was patrolling the battlefield, a black D2 jumping zombie suddenly rushed up from a Saber Hand Fortress.
If Qin An was present, he would definitely know that this D2 jumping zombie was a dark zombie that had been resurrected from the dead.
Zombies of the Dark Element had a bit more strength and speed than normal zombies of the same level, and they were obviously smarter.
The Dark D2 Jumping Zombie ignored the guardians on the Bladesman Fortress. Instead, it jumped over ten meters from outside the city and landed in the city.
At this time, Dong Junwei happened to be walking by. The Dark D2 Jumping Zombie howled and threw Dong Junwei down with another jump. After that, he took a bite on his cheek.
The adjutants beside Dong Junwei were frightened by this situation and hurriedly took out their knives to chop down the Dark D2 Jumping Zombies.
In the vicinity, Ye Liangchen and Dong Shanhe also saw this scene. Their shocked eyes almost popped out of their sockets as they shouted and rushed over.
When Dong Shanhe arrived at Dong Junwei's side, the Dark D2 Jumping Zombie had already stood up and dodged the attacks of several adjutants.
Dong Shanhe's eyes were bloodshot. He was a Level 3 mutant, but because he had been guarding the city wall for too long, the TC virus in his body had already fallen into a dormant state. He was unable to even turn into a beast. However, seeing the zombie bite his father in front of him, Dong Shanhe was naturally shocked and furious, and it was impossible for him to retreat in the face of his enemies. Therefore, he used his saber to chop down the Dark D2 Jumping Zombie.
Although his body was extremely weak, Dong Shanhe was still a mutant. His body's strength and movement speed were far stronger than ordinary people's. He chopped down a few times without letting the Dark D2 Jump Zombie take advantage of him. At this time, his back was facing the Bladesman Fortress. He did not notice that the other Dark D2 Jumping Zombie had already killed the guards and entered the city.
Just as Dong Shanhe was focusing all of his attention on dealing with the zombie in front of him, the Dark D2 Jumping Zombie behind him quickly approached him and waved his long fingers to sweep past Dong Shanhe's head!
Pa!
After a loud muffled sound, Dong Shanhe was knocked to the ground by a powerful force. His head was already in tatters, and the brain fluid flowed out and died.
Everything happened too suddenly. Everyone was worried about Dong Junwei. They didn't expect that Dong Shanhe would die at this time.
The two Dark D2 Jumping Zombies ignored the shock and disbelief of the crowd. They were about to activate the Great Kill Special Kill mode.
Fortunately, Gong Xue and Lu Fei rushed over from the side. Lu Fei waved her hands and grabbed the necks of the two Dark D2 Jumping Zombies. As a mutant, Gong Xue's endurance was better than an ordinary mutant's. Although she had fought hard for a night, she was still able to use her special ability.
Gong Xue followed beside Lu Fei and saw the two D2 jumping zombies being pulled over by Lu Fei. She immediately activated the Soul Devouring Sword God Skill, allowing her soul to enter the minds of the two zombies and control them to remain motionless. In the next moment, he quickly raised his saber and chopped off the zombies' heads to kill them.
The crisis in front of him had been resolved, but the real crisis had only just arrived.
City Lord Dong Junwei was infected with the T virus, but his son died before him.
At this time, Dong Junwei was already sitting on the suspension bridge supported by the adjutant. Looking at the corpse of his son in front of him, tears streamed down his face as he cried so hard that he almost lost his breath.
The adjutant hurriedly comforted,
"Lord City Lord! You can't do this! You can't fall! If you fall, Shenshu City will be finished!"
"Finished?"
Dong Junwei was greatly stimulated, and his expression had already become somewhat dull. Giving the white-haired man to the black-haired man was originally the saddest thing.
"Are you done? Yes! Haha, it's all over! Listen to me, adjutant, kill me! I've been bitten by a zombie, I'm going to accompany Shanhe! Kill me!"
All the aides and guards around Dong Junwei wept.
After the apocalypse, they followed Dong Junwei to this place to establish the Shenshu City. The number of refugees they had taken in had exceeded 200,000, but what about now? Unexpectedly, he was still unable to escape the fate of death. They knew that after Dong Junwei lost his fighting spirit, Shenshu City was finished! When the civilians guarding the city heard the news, their willpower would immediately collapse. As for the zombies who could already directly step into the city, they would completely charge in and trample every inch of Shenshu City's land!
It's over! Everyone thought so.
At this time, seven students, Gong Xue's group, two reporters from Tibet West, Jess Liu Tian, Zhou Jiawei and Zuo Shanshan had all rushed over.
The defeat had already been achieved, and he really couldn't defend it anymore! After eight days and eight nights, Shenshu City was about to be expelled from the apocalypse! After hearing that the City Lord had been bitten by a zombie and that the City Lord's son had died, the entire defensive line had already shown signs of collapsing.
Just as everyone was in a low mood, the civilians guarding the city began to give up their defenses and wanted to escape, and the mutants began to think of a way out, an accident suddenly arose!
On the north side of the city, a group of zombies that had already broken through the barriers to entering the city suddenly stood motionless!
This caused all the soldiers and civilians to be stunned. They didn't know what was wrong with the zombies. Unexpectedly, it was as if someone had used a body fixation technique, and it was also as if a robot suddenly lost its lightning when it was walking.
After a pause for about a second, the people at the front of the northern city defense line went crazy again. They shouted as they moved forward, chopping down and killing all the zombies that rushed into the city.
Suddenly someone shouted, "Brothers and sisters! We have no way out! There are our children and parents at the bottom of the city! If we retreat, they will no longer be guarded! We must persevere now, not for Shenshu City, not for Lord City Lord, but for our relatives who have lived bitterly for two years in the apocalypse! We must not be afraid to retreat!"
These words came from a corner of the city wall, and then they were quickly passed on, shocking everyone.
That's right, he had already endured for more than two years in the apocalypse, and he had already stood guard for eight days and nights at this moment. Did he really give up just like that?
The people who were already afraid of retreating rushed forward again, intending to give up their lives and fight the zombies without reservation!
When the crowd climbed up the city wall and looked out, a strange scene appeared in everyone's eyes, causing everyone to dare not believe it.
...
"Look, the wound on the City Lord's face... automatically matches!"
A soldier guarding Dong Junwei suddenly shouted.
The hearts of Gong Xue and the others nearby trembled. Looking at Dong Junwei's face, they found that the place that had been bitten by the zombie was indeed intact.
This … Isn't this a coincidence?
After being bitten, Dong Junwei actually became a carrier of the TC virus, and he had awakened to become a mutant in such a short period of time! It had to be said that this was a kind of luck! However, this lucky old man had just lost his son a dozen minutes ago. How could this not be possible? Only in the apocalypse would such a thing happen.
Gong Xue sighed and intended to go forward to comfort this old general. After all, he was really a great city lord. In the apocalypse, he did not feel guilty about the word "soldier" that would never be extinguished from his body.
However, just as Gong Xue took a step forward, she was suddenly stunned.
Something's wrong! Why... Why is it so quiet all of a sudden?
Realizing this, Gong Xue suddenly turned her head to look in the direction of the Saber Hand Fortress. The guardians in the city did not move at all and stood behind the fortress staring blankly at the outside of the city.
Outside the city, the noise was originally filled with zombies howling, but at this moment, it was also completely silent.
What happened?
Gong Xue was extremely curious. Seeing that Dong Junwei had his aides and guards by his side to take care of him, she temporarily put aside his matters and quickly rushed to the nearest Saber Hand Fortress to look down.
Under the moonlight, the darkness outside was filled with zombies!
However, these zombies, who were desperately rushing upwards to attack the city, suddenly stood motionless. None of the zombies made a sound, and none of the zombies moved.
What kind of situation, how could this be?
Gong Xue had just asked a question in her heart when all the zombies suddenly started to move. However, their direction of action was not Shenshu City, but running in the opposite direction.
Gong Xue was even more confused. When the zombies were about to take over Shenshu City, how could they retreat?
Seven students from Tibetan Western College also went to the back of the Bladesman Fortress and looked out.
Lan Miao and Lin Yang majored in apocalyptic biology and understood the characteristics of zombies.
Hence, after seeing this scene, Lan Miao was shocked and said, "The group of zombies controlled by the jumping zombies suddenly gave up their goal and began to retreat. There is only one reason!"
Lin Yang nodded and said, "Well, the highest level of jumping zombies in their network is in danger! Then all the other low-level zombies will feel this situation and use the network to control all ordinary zombies to go back and save them!"
Lan Miao nodded her head forcefully and shouted, "Heavens! Looks like Teacher Xiaoyan and that strange man riding a white wolf have already begun to assassinate Norsak! Furthermore, they have also posed a threat to Norsak's life! What should we do? We should go and help them!"
