In the westernmost side of Silvermoon City, within 100 meters from the ten-meter metallic energy defense wall at the edge of the city, the retreating group was charged towards the exit.
“Hurry! Hurry up, everyone!”
However, since the distance was quite far, and there weren’t vehicles in the way to shield them, around 20 zombies had appeared.
Wearing tattered clothes torn or bitten off by others and staring with their dilated grayish pupils, the zombies moved and weaved their arms as their bloodied bodies completely blocked the access towards the group’s destination.
“Don’t stop, charge through them!” Dan Hen Shouted calmly as he continued to fire his Rare Grade submachine gun.
“Ta, ta, ta…”
The impact of the bullets shook the body of a male NPC zombie that looked like an ex-white collar worker moving at the forefront, making its black and red blood splatter all over.
Dan Hen’s decision was correct, they had to charge through.
There were definitely fewer zombies in front of them compared to those chasing them from behind, and there were no dangerous Foragers.
However, as they made their charge, they could not just charge in hastily.
“Alarm, bastard! Hurry up!” Security Door, holding his alloy shield significantly damaged by the Tyrant’s claw, shouted to urge Alarm, who was moving beside him, to move faster.
“Don’t rush me, and it’s done!” While running at full speed, the Earth Manipulator’s energy converter had a sign that implied energy condensation had been completed. Manipulators had skills that could be cast or prepared in the midst of running; however, these skills tended to require extremely high familiarity before they could be performed.
“Rumble!”
A yellow light flashed in front of the group, and two large energy rock pillars measuring several meters in length appeared. The two pillars flew towards the zombie horde like cannons.
The zombies that were initially blocking the path were immediately sent flying away by the pair of energy rock pillars. In an instant, a two to three-meter space appeared in the middle of the zombie horde.
The crowd control ability of Earth Manipulators wasn’t a joke.
“Charge!”
Four Heavy Armor Warriors raised their shields to block the side and the front, creating an alloy shield wall that pushed and shoved the zombies in the horde away from the group.
Charge, Shield Bash, Slam… Skills with bonus strength struck at the zombies one after another, sending these zombies, which had their body destroyed by the T-virus flying away in all kinds of tumbles.
A bunch of glass cannons, three Manipulators with energy shields cast, three NPCs, as well as one Doctor, Azure, ran at full strength, following the wall of shields.
Roar!
However, though the zombies were not agile, the hunger they felt after being infected by the T-virus made it so that they would not simply give up the bunch of fresh meat in front of them.
After they were sent flying away from the shield wall, they immediately got back up again. This was especially true for the Elite zombies, which transformed from players, as they were not weak and immediately stood back up. They waved their battered arms, roared and clawed at Azure, Jingxiang, and Lan, the few females at the rear of the group.
A zombie transformed from a female Doctor player with half her face eaten before she turned, moved very quickly and was only a few centimeters away from scratching Azure’s white and smooth face with her sharp nails bitten to pieces.

It seemed as if she, who had her face completely ruined, was jealous and wanted to destroy Azure’s face.
In such a situation, even Azure, who was more courageous and braver than ordinary girls, screamed. One could not deny the fact that the scary scenes from “Resident Evil” were enough to affect most people.
Feng Luo believed that he was probably not the only one who was feeling in the midst of a city experiencing a biohazard crisis. The high realism game provided extreme stimulus to the visual nervous system, and it was more than enough to cause the brain to lose its ability to differentiate real from fake temporarily.
“Bang!”
“-3655!”
However, the female zombie Doctor that wanted to destroy Azure’s face had its plan foiled as a 12.7mm caliber D-Grade pistol round smashed into its seemingly modified and a little overly large breast. Her entire body was sent backward by the strong impact of the shot. The impact was so strong that the female Doctor zombie even slammed into another zombie whose intestines were hanging out of its body and was dragged along the ground.
The pale Feng Luo raised the bronze-colored Tyrant revolver with his left hand while holding Ghost Weep in his right. His right hand was placed on top of the back of his rifle to prevent his aim from being affected by the strong recoil of Tyrant.
After his shot pushed the female zombie back, he shifted the Tyrant revolver to another angle and shot at the arm of a male zombie trying to grasp Jingxiang’s legs.
The impact of the bullet completely tore off the arm of the zombie. Its body was even pushed back, leaving a trail of blood behind.
However, this Elite Grade zombie that was transformed from a player had high HP. The shot was not enough to kill it, and only after another three shots targeted towards the same spot by Dan Hen, who was at the rear, the zombie finally stopped moving.
With Feng Luo’s continuous shots helping out, the group finally escaped the dangerous encirclement of the zombie horde. Since the zombie horde was attracted to the rear, there were no zombies left on their path.
A fork in the road appeared before them. The right side headed towards the main path, while the left side was towards the western side of the city.
“Don’t head towards the city’s main path, and there are more zombies there. We’ll be completely blocked!” Dan Hen, who was at the rear, shouted. His recon meter, paired with his Detection skill, could detect the life signs of lifeforms within a radius of over 200 meters.
Many players and NPC vehicles were stuck in the direction of the main city exit path, and by this time, there was no doubt that it had become a place with a high concentration of zombie numbers.
“Follow the plan and turn left. To the machine gun defense platform. Everyone will go there. I have a method to stop the zombie horde from attacking us!” Feng Luo endured the distress he was feeling and shouted. As he ran, he did not forget to turn around to shoot.
“Bang!”
The Tyrant revolver’s large-caliber gun barrel flashed and sent a Forager moving at high speed and was less than 30 meters away tumbling and rolling on the ground from the wall of a tall building nearby.
…
Finally, the group reached the machine gun platform beside the metallic energy wall.
“Hurry! Heavy Armor Warriors, help the NPCs up there first. Long-range guys, you’re with me, we’ll deal with the Foragers!” Dan Hen stopped in his tracks and turned around to face the street where two Foragers were already within 30 meters of their location. Then, he started firing his submachine gun.
The defense platform did not have a direct path upwards, but the group already had a plan. However, for Feng Luo, it was even easier, as he already had a silver anchor was already in his left hand.
“Peng!”
Both his feet landed on the platform. Feng Luo was already holding a white chip, which he inserted into his personal terminal.
[Six-barrelled railgun YYC-023, Temporary Control Authorization Chip.]
The reward chip Feng Luo received earlier for killing the Elite Grade zombie, transformed from a NPC guard on the platform, was now definitely going to realize their potential. It was also the reason why Feng Luo believed he could create enough time for the group to retreat from the zombie horde.
