Chapter 559 - 493: An Unbearable, Horrifying Reality

Woof woof...

In the blink of an eye, the zombies in the snow didn’t slip a bit, quickly charging toward the convoy.

Bam bam, bam bam bam...

Their speed and strength greatly increased, but their intelligence showed no significant advancement. The first batch of thirty to forty zombies crashed straight into the cars, creating a series of noises and causing them to shake uncontrollably. Many zombies were knocked down by the immense recoil, further hindering those behind them.

Even if a few zombies managed to squeeze through the gaps between the front and rear of the cars, they were met with iron rods...

Being able to adapt is humanity’s greatest advantage; every opportunity must be seized to confront the enemy, and this moment was undoubtedly a good chance!

"Go!"

Zhang Su roared, leveraging his elbow to flip onto the car hood, leaping high like a dragon soaring in the sky, attacking the nearest target; the ribbed steel in his hand like sharp dragon claws, the military knife resembling sturdy dragon teeth, easily tearing apart the zombie’s defenses.

Following closely, Zheng Xinyu, Zhao Dezhu, and Ju Mumio rushed in from a diagonal angle, their expressions icy, lips tightly sealed. Though there were no deafening roars, careful observation revealed Zheng Xinyu and Zhao Dezhu’s lips trembling slightly—a physiological reaction only possible at a certain level of excitement.

Ju Mumio’s reaction was different; she was calmer than them, her eyes exceptionally serious, more solemn than ever, as if facing a lifelong adversary. Her eyes sparkled as her attention sharpened!

Dodge, twist, rise, evade... While not able to kill zombies with a single strike, Ju Mumio’s body technique was agile enough; three zombies lunged at her but couldn’t touch her clothes, as if her whole body were coated in oil.

Zhao Dezhu remained the same, his open and aggressive fight style unchanged over a lifetime. Through long-term training, his physical condition improved significantly from the days of cutting fish in the supermarket. Unfazed by zombies charging like football players, he fought hard and knocked them down—a typical one trick to rule them all.

The remaining members of the Yama Corps were slightly slower but unwilling to lag behind, grabbing weapons and fighting back. Though struggling against larger numbers, they could still handle one-on-two without major issues, killing zombies while ensuring their own safety.

Besides the seven members of the Yama Corps, worth mentioning were Liu Yao, Ma Xiyu, and a few other fighters, among whom Knight of Light Fan Dahai stood out.

The lanky man appeared like a bamboo pole but fought in an orderly manner, using his limited advantages to resist zombies, easily handling one-on-two, being the combat lead at the Automobile Park Branch.

The remaining combat personnel previously handled regular zombies easily, but now truly fell short!

Not to mention comparing with Zhang Su as a T0 level, even when lined up against other Yama Corps members, they were outmatched—not to say one versus two, some struggled even one-on-one!

But humans have a skill zombies lack, and that is cooperation!

Inadequate fighting strength means joining forces; Yang Xinqi seemed long aware of his team’s general weakness; those from the Automobile Park Branch coordinated well, unlike the kindergarten who fought solo battles, barely holding off the zombie assault.

The Yama Corps broke the crisis with super strong solo combat capabilities, while the Automobile Park Branch worked together to resolve the danger; the kindergarten folks, however, were caught awkwardly in-between...

This battle was entirely different from before!

Just yesterday, after the grape bombardment, thousands of zombies stormed Celestial Horse Island, where hundreds of fighters easily resolved the trouble, slaughtering with great intensity. But the situation now was markedly different.

Only Zhang Su and Ju Mumio could truly handle the pressure; besides them, even the relatively safe Zhao Dezhu, Chen Hanzhou, and others felt immense pressure in their hearts!

Disregarding skill factors, speed and power directly determined the strength in combat; the zombies before them were far stronger than before, not simply compounded!

Previously, handling two zombies at once wasn’t so exaggerated as having it in hand, it was easy-peasy; even the Reserve Team’s ladies managed it. But now, facing two zombies’ pincer attack, Wang Xin needed full concentration to escape safely, risking failure for various reasons.

Efficiency in killing had greatly reduced amidst the evolution!

Zhang Su didn’t anticipate the snowfall would make zombies so formidable; these regular ones possessed the prior burning zombies’ combat might, the only difference being not catching fire during battle, avoiding flames’ reach—still, such intensity was already rather challenging for ordinary fighters!

He couldn’t use his combat prowess as reference; to quantify, he deemed using Chen Hanzhou or Lu Yubo’s fighting abilities suitable, assuming their power was at a hundred, the previous zombies were ten at most, but now ordinary zombies are thirty!

"We must fight a quick battle!"

Zhang Su thought to himself, intensifying his efforts, fully aware that faced with such powerful zombies, his companions couldn’t endure for long!

With the aid of the white mist, he completely grasped the situation within five or six meters around him; the zombies’ positions, Zheng Xinyu’s actions, avoiding accidental harm—a crystal clear view, entering full berserk mode, his steel rod wielding wildly rather than precise stabs, aptly said extraordinary force creates wonders, swinging frantically, smashing!
