Limitless The Strongest Revenant

Chapter 339: ROAR WITH ME! [2/2]

A powerful wave of souls enveloped the entire army. How much would that single command cost Jo? Astonished by her use of her {Fate}, I was rendered speechless.

'Holy shit! Was this the buff Joshua said Vela's Wolves had? Using Death Resonance to force someone to fight was either pure genius or borderline insane.'

Lilly then raised her arm and howled for all to hear.

"HELLSEND! ANNIHILATE THE ENEMY! OPEN COMBAT!"

At her words, I summoned the FT5 on my left shoulder and pulled the trigger on the HCAR! There were over fifty people with me, all of them using automatic weapons. In a single moment, the thunderous roar of gunfire erupted.

The sound was loud enough to drown out the groans of the undead. Along with the explosion of gunpowder, lead bullets began to tear through the undead. Unarmored, the zombies stood no chance.

With the sprinters leading the way, their bodies were torn to shreds. Falling by the dozens, their allies showed no mercy as they trampled their fallen kin. Wave after wave of the living dead were slaughtered by the combined firepower of Hellsend.

As the bullets struck down the enemy, their bodies began to pile up like a living wall of fresh. Then I heard Lilly shout.

"Grenadiers! Clear the corpses!"

Robyn dropped her Mac-11's as she yelled in excitement.

"OY! YOU FUCKING CUNTS! SYNC TO MY TIMING! READY? NOW AFTER ME!"

Like a bunch of kindergartners, various people from the army then all screamed in unison. Of course, Robyn was the loudest.

"FIRE IN YOUR HOLE!"

40mm M433 high explosive dual purpose grenades decimated the zombie horde. I belatedly noticed that even the four MAARs were synchronizing their grenade salvos with Robyn.

The M433 was an amazing piece of technology. It had two explosives set to detonate at different times. The first was what was called the detonator charge, this was basically as its name sake used to detonate the thing.

Unlike normal hand grenades, a 40mm grenade had no way to arm it directly. Instead it used inertia. Once fired from a rifled barrel like an M203, the spin would cause the detonator charge to be primed.

This requirement was in place because without it, the grenade's head would simply explode from the sligthest touch. Since the military operated under the harshest conditions, it was literally made impossible to ignite a 40mm by blunt force.

Once primed, however, the detonator would explode the moment the grenade struck something. The first charge would be powerful enough to ignite the second. This was called the HE or High Explosive Charge.

This charge was much larger than the first and would destroy the target with shrapnel. The M433 had enough power to penetrate up to 3 inches of armor. So if you were not a tank, you would definitely get fucked up by these powerful rounds.

With a kill radius of over 16 and a half feet and an effective range of 50, the ensuing chaos from the Grenadier salvo was terrifying. It was as if the ground was being ripped out of its place and spat out again.

Of course, the undead, also blown to pieces, were scattered as well. It was then that I saw Sabel's drones, all flying {Honey Traps} soulgears in a circle. With them came the loud ratatat of .50 BMGs from Alfonso's tank.

Due to the excessive firepower of our guys, the zombies could not be pushed forward. Like a dam, the lead flying at supersonic speeds forced the undead back. When the corpses began to form walls, the grenadiers blew them to the sky.

Personally, I didn't even bother to aim. The rockets from my FT5 were even more powerful than the 40mm grenades. Likewise, the .30-06 Springfield rounds I shot penetrated more than the average 5.56.

With {Reload}, none of my guys had to worry about ammo. But I did notice some of the rifles jamming. Fortunately, as more experienced soldiers, the new recruits to my army knew how to clear them and get back into the fight.

I connected to the Minerva network to talk to the Sirens. But instead of our usual group, the Wizards were also connected. And Bella was coordinating the entire army while Lilly was the commander on the ground.

[Wizard_03: Lady Minerva, Rank E Undead Chiefs have appeared. Three of them have been sighted. The rear ranks have begun to stop running mindlessly].

[Minerva: That's why we suddenly have room to breathe. We need them gone now! Otherwise they will attack the flanks! Sabel!]

[Sabel: Switchblades inbound mother]

[Wizard_15: Lady Minerva, Rank E Imps have entered the zone through Portal 6. Five of them have begun to ascend into the sky.]

[Minerva: Satis?]

[Satis: I see them, leave them to me]

[Wizard_09: Lady Minerva, Squad Commander Joshua requests the use of Sacreds.]

[Minerva: Granted. Tell them to make sure they hit as much as they can in one volley. Van, once the army move forward. have ten graves begin their operations. Ishtar, I will leave you to do the aftermath.]

[Wizard_01: I will tell Ms. Cynthia, Lady Minerva.]

[Ishtar: Roger. Inari, Vela. We push forward. Freyja and Rhiannon advance with the army.]

[Wizard_10: Lady Minerva, five rank E giants have just entered from Portal 3. Report that this group is likely immune to the {Honey Traps} and will rampage if left unchecked.]

[Minerva: Ishtar deal with them, have the army support you. I have to prepare for the 2nd wave.]

[Ishtar: Understood. Vela, take your wolves and Freyja to the giants. Kill them all. Inari and Rhiannon, watch over the army.]

[Vela: Got it. Wolves! On me!]

[Freyja: Finally! On my way!]

[Inari: Understood, Ishtar-sama.]

[Rhiannon: Ugh, do I have to?]

[Wizard_01: Lady Minerva, total undead in the zone is at 1,500 and rising. Secondary {portals} are holding, an estimated 4000 undead are en route to the battle zone.]

"..."

The things I was hearing were was enough to make my head spin. It should be noted that the most enemies I fought in a single night was only about 1500. This was from attacking over 7 different zones.

How the hell were 5000 zombies all converging on that position at once? From what I saw, the undead would not be able to break through our battle lines as long as they remained mindless.

The lack of heavy armor or special units reinforced this fact. Minerva's wizards were busy analyzing the battlefield and prioritizing the enemies to deal with. Similar to what I heard from the server, my augmented vision saw the Imps flying in the air.

At least, that was before they were blown out of the sky. Similarly, Vela and her unit broke off and started charging towards one of the portals. Alfonso and Henry covered their flanks to avoid them being mobbed.

Sabel also moved to draw the entire horde to the right. Then I heard Joshua, Mike, and Warren shout similar commands.

"Yellow Squad, switch to Sacred rounds. Prepare to fire at the order of Commander Ishtar."

"White Squad, YEEHAW! Earn your keep, boys! Rain Sacreds on these bastards on Commander's signal!"

"Nigga Squad! I mean...Black Squad! Get ready to smoke these niggas! Load shiny bullets! Fire on Boss Babe's call!"

As the three squads switched ammunition, the other four concentrated their fire. Loud explosions rocked the battlefield as the Rank E Chiefs were destroyed by Sabel.

Lilly then raised her weapon as she ordered in a commanding tone.

"Red, Orange, Blue Squads, we will push the front line after the Sacred Salvo. Green Squad, you are to protect the non-combatants."

The squad commanders each responded to her words.

"Understood, Miss Ishtar. Red squad ready and waiting! Get ready to roll rednecks!" Scott affirmed.

Santiago followed suit. "Roger that, La Hefa! Orange squad on the move! Compadres, let's show them how hard Latinos kick ass!"

"Blue squad leader Claire Knight reporting, orders received Lady Ishtar. Blue bloods ready to move on my mark," Claire ordered her own squad.

"Fuck! Again? Why always guard? Let me fight too! Tsk. Green Squad!

No one gets pass, okay?" Angela complained.

Before Jo and Liv's group could get any distance, Lilly brought her hand down with a mighty yell.

"LIGHT THEM UP!"

A small galaxy of light erupted. Three squads' worth of blessed bullets vaporized the undead like an eraser on a chalkboard. Lilly ran forward in the same second.

"HELLSEND! PRESS FORWARD!"

No one gave me any instructions, but I joined Lilly and ran beside her, firing at the undead. Behind us, the red, orange, and blue squads advanced, decimating the zombies.

Systematic, powerful and merciless. This was how humanity waged war.
