Beast Tamer?
Ye Zhongming frowned. This small horde had such a rare zombie!
Beast Tamer was similar to the Talking Lady and had stringent conditions to form. But once it appeared, it would become a powerful individual.
If Talking Lady was the synonym for elegance in the zombie transformation, then Beast Tamers were the gory leading sheep.
This level three Beast Tamer had its wrist sliced open, and the chains looked like they had grown into their bones. Flesh and blood on it had dried onto the chains, and those four chains all gave off a threatening black color.
The four-level two mutated dogs on it had their fur ripped off. Their red blood vessels were revealed outside, and occasionally some blood would drip onto the group.
Their heads were even more terrifying as their entire anatomy was being revealed. Their eyes were hanging in their sockets as they would drop at any moment. Each time they spun, it would send chills down one’s spin. They bare their fangs, and their sharp teeth gave off a cold light.
The moment such an ugly monster appeared, it sent an intense shock to the survivors. The four mutated dogs looked so disgusting. Moreover, they were all drenched in blood, giving everyone a visual blow.
The four mutated dogs gave out a loud bark, and it was hard to imagine how such a loud voice could come out from their furless bodies. Moreover, the other zombies sped up when they heard the barks and were just 20 meters from the main gate.
“Frenzied Roar!”
Ye Zhongming cursed. This talent skill was the Beast Tamer’s support ability which could increase the speed and strength of surrounding allies. Although the buff wasn’t too huge for the zombie horde, it could affect a large number which caught the survivors off guard.
Moreover, the ranged zombie attacks were effective and even suppressed the firepower of the humans.
No choice. The zombies could tank dozens of bullets and might not die, but as long as the zombie attacks touched you, you would lose your combat strength even if you didn’t die. So the zombies didn’t need to dodge, but the humans had no choice.
Just like that, the zombie horde quickly advanced towards the door.
At this point, the defenses near the door started to get to work.
These were made of cement and were between one and two meters tall. There were numerous small shooting holes, and the people inside needed to stretch the gun barrels out to form a fierce firepower line to deal massive damage to the nearby zombies.
Moreover, as these structures were firm and the entrance was only the size of a window, it was also protected by a thick metal gate, so even if the zombies surrounded them, it wouldn’t affect combat strength.
The firing caused the zombies to suffer huge losses. Many of them surrounded and wanted to get the humans out to eat, but there was no other effect besides leaving deep claw marks on the defensive works. The zombies who blocked the holes were even killed by the bullets flying out.
The ammo here was enough for them to shoot for over two hours!
After all, although it was safe inside, in comparison, if they lost the base or special zombies appeared, the people inside wouldn’t have a chance to flee. So the people inside were all normal. They were promised evolution potions by Ye Zhongming, and they would be prioritized for good equipment.
Seeing the situation get slightly better, Ye Zhongming turned to look at the unconscious Yellow Ball. This fellow was evolving at this crucial moment!
This was a good thing, but it came at the wrong time. Yellow Ball had above-average combat strength in the team, and for it to evolve now, the team lost a strong helper.
“Candy, Master Le, Sister Liu, the three of you bring it to the back.”
The three of them were more technical and were heavily protected. The outcome of this battle was still uncertain, so it was better for them to stay further behind while protecting the unconscious Yellow Ball.
Candy and Master Le didn’t say anything and listened to Ye Zhongming’s instructions. They called two others, and they carried Yellow Ball back. But Liu Zhenghong pouted and took out a small scalpel.
“I am much stronger than many people here.”
Ye Zhongming didn’t have time to stop her and could only allow her to do what she wanted. He shot once more, and this time, he aimed at the Beast Tamer. But the wave of zombies blocked it. These zombies paid attention to protect important members. Apart from some regular zombies initially giving way for this beast tamer, this level three zombie would have four level two helpers that covered it.
After sacrificing hundreds of level two zombies and one level three zombie, the horde was near the entrance.
“Charge!”
Lu Yi was waiting for this chance and gave the order right away. The suicide squad who were chosen to battle the zombies face up charged. Each one of them wore grey bulletproof vests. Not only did they have hunting rifles and police-use shotguns, they were even modified. Ye Zhongming experimented. Even level-two zombies wouldn’t be able to break through their defense. The shotguns could even deal massive AOE damage.
These members roared to pump themselves up. A few of them carried shields. The leader was Shengyuan. Under the protection of everyone, he charged forwards. After charging a certain distance, these people then started to retreat slowly.
It looked pointless, but in truth, it was crucial.
They attracted the zombie horde’s attention, especially the higher-level ones charging at the front. Some of them were killed by zombies around. The blood stimulated them to surge toward the delicious food running away from them.
“Immovable Boulder!”
Shengyuan used his job skill, and the shield shadows appeared at the front of the team.
The skill was used well and blocked most level-two zombies’ attacks.
After which, the shield shadows broke. Shengyuan flew backward and spat out blood.
Although he was a level two evolved like Xia Bai and Park Xiuying, the attacks he faced today were too strong.
But this allowed at least half of them to retreat. Moreover, the mutated zombies were grouped up.
“Fall!”
Lu Yi shouted once more. Many people behind him sliced dozens of ropes at once. The giant stone gate smashed down.
The entrance was majestic as one of the best entertainment places near Ying City. Especially the gate, which had the villa’s name written on it. It had to be lifted with a dozen heavy machines. This super stone gate had reached 600 tonnes!
This gate that many survivors had neglected had its foundations destroyed by Ye Zhongming. Ropes had secured it, and now it fell.
In the dust and massive explosion, be it the humans or the zombie horde, they all stopped at that moment.
