Chapter 903: Mutated army's final attack
Ye Zhongming fainted because he used up all of his mental energy.
Even if Ah Tao and the three-legged man told him how to create and use the soul artifact, he understood too little. Moreover, the former’s understanding of soul artifacts was very low. His peak item had just reached the intermediate stage. Although the three-legged man’s mental energy talent was extraordinary, it was because of his race.
In other words, the three-legged man’s mental energy was strong, and he could know so much because he lived a long time. But he was not good at crafting soul artifacts.
Right, knowing and being good at something were two different things. With his ability, he probably wouldn’t use it in the Blue Secret Realm if he got free. That thing might not be stronger than his current attack.
So Ye Zhongming had no idea if the Basic Smith Heart, etc. Smith skills would affect his creation of a level nine soul artifact. Anyways, he succeeded, and he added 15 marks.
The three-legged man knew it was amazing but didn’t expect it to be this amazing.
All these elements combined meant that when Ye Zhongming used the Soul Shattering Staff, he created a hundreds-meter-long death corridor. It killed level seven lifeforms and badly injured the level eight lifeform. As a result, he used all of his mental energy and went unconscious.
How high was Ye Zhongming’s overall mental energy? It wasn’t surprising that the damage was so high after he had consumed all of his mental energy.
Of course, it was because things were too sudden. Ye Zhongming just wanted to do a powerful strike, but he didn’t consider it. Or rather, he did consider, but he didn’t expect to need so much mental energy to activate all 15 marks.
But he fainted. This was tough for Xia Bai, Hong Xiang, Red Hair, and others. The zombie army was stunned, but they were nearly able to make use of it to return to Cloud Peak. But, they were nearly able to.Two people, a zombie and a dog, were in their strongest states.
Hong Xiang held two weapons: a silver blade and a pair of silver hammers, gifts from Ye Zhongming.
When the zombies surrounded them, they knew he had to go all out. The blade turned into streaks of silver light that sliced the enemies that charged forward.
Although Hong Xiang had just reached level eight, he was still level eight. Ye Zhongming suppressed him because Ye Zhongming had too many skills and tricks.
But the zombies were different. None of them could block one of his attacks.
Xia Bai protected Ye Zhongming with one hand, and she used the scythe with the other. She didn’t care about killing the enemy; she didn’t want Ye Zhongming to be injured.
At the same time, she used her bloodline and job. Even if she didn’t attack, no zombies could get close.
Yellow Ball went berserk. Its body swelled. It was behind Xia Bai to ensure that she wouldn’t get attacked. Shadow Forest Stab, activate! The zombies that got close were cleared out. The already level seven dog was weaker than Ye Zhongming in Cloud Peak. Probably even Xia Bai wasn’t its match.
Hong Xiang was the arrowhead, and Xia Bai was in the middle. Yellow Ball holding up the rear. Red Hair was nimble, and her position shifted from left to right.
As she controlled those zombies previously, she could not use them again as they consumed too much mental energy. But this half-human half-zombie was still fighting. Her attacks were as strong as the shining Yellow Ball.
Vines stretched from her hands and back. These vines were like life-taking whips that claimed the lives of those zombies. Moreover, Red Hair’s hair formed a path beneath her feet; when needed, they would float and attack the enemy with her vines. This made her like a giant porcupine. Any enemy that touched those spikes would lose their lives.
The elite team's combat strength was on full display. Each second, they got closer to Cloud Peak.
The Posthumous people warriors that charged from the walls weren’t as successful. Although they cleared ten meters when the zombies weren’t paying attention, the hole was too small, and too many of them came out. Those at the back were blocked within the mountain. Without the firepower support from the walls, they might get pushed back. The zombies might even make their way into the mountain.
Fortunately, the Posthumous people were fierce when they fought. The first batch of warriors blocked the counter from the zombies and formed a defense line. The people at the back could charge up, stabilizing this arc-shaped defense line with the hole at the center.
But that was only it. Those warriors were stuck here and were unable to proceed.
The situation changed when the high level zombies arrived.
Since the war began, only two level eight zombies have arrived. One was the level eight Zombie Ape, which was killed by the ranged attacks. The other was Black Cell, which was killed.
With them here, the zombies around surrounded them. Even if Talking Lady and Red Hair returned, it wouldn’t do much because of the level gap. They were stronger.
But without them, some stronger zombies were also killed such that the higher-end of the zombie’s strength was severely damaged. But there were too many zombies. There were over ten level seven, hundreds of level six, and numerous level five zombies.
Usually, when the zombie king dies, the remaining high-level zombies select someone to take over. After two level seven zombies led 20 level six zombies over, the elite team stopped. They were a dozen meters from the Posthumous people's defense line.
They were so close that they could see the slightest reactions on their faces.
A level seven zombie led seven level six zombies to tangle with Hong Xiang. The other level seven faced Red Hair. The remaining level six zombies led their subordinates and attacked Xia Bai and Yellow Ball.
Taking revenge and taking over the leadership became a method that all lifeforms would adopt. Zombies were no exception.
Xia Bai shouted. She sliced two zombies, and then Yellow Ball bit her collar and tossed her. She hugged Ye Zhongming and got onto Yellow Ball’s back. It barked, and it used Dense Needles. 20-centimeter thick fur fired in all directions and cleared an area.
Yellow Ball’s beast tool moved and brought them into the sky.
With Yellow Ball’s flying speed, it needed just a few seconds, and it could fly onto the wall.
It didn’t use this and waited for the high-level zombies to appear. If not, it was easy for it to be intercepted.
The people on the walls watched as Yellow Ball flew into the sky. They started to provide cover such that it didn’t need to worry.
But in the dense zombie horde, another level seven zombie hiding finally showed itself. It was as if it was waiting for this moment. It gave out an ear-piercing screech.
