Chapter 427 Sudden Change in Starlight City
As Steven had thought, this zombie crisis was not targeted at them.
Instead, it had erupted on a large scale throughout Starlight City!
Emberwick Base, Silverlake Base, and Frostwood Base were all attacked by a massive number of zombies that seemed to come out of nowhere!
The soldiers had no experience dealing with this kind of undead.
At first, they thought that smashing their heads would be enough.
But who would have thought that even with their heads smashed, the zombies could still pounce and tear off their heads with sharp claws!
These zombies were not the sluggish ones seen on TV; they were much faster and stronger than ordinary people.
The zombie horde surged like a tidal wave, and the first line of defense of the human garrison was almost unable to resist, quickly being breached head-on!
There were too many zombies, and they were extremely difficult to kill.
In a short time, the major bases suffered heavy losses, with many people killed by these zombies.
However, the three major bases had powerful firepower. After a period of chaos, the leaders and Psychic captains of each base quickly organized a counterattack.
At Emberwick Base, Megan was the first to discover that the zombies feared fire.
She climbed a tall tower furnace and used high-purity alcohol to spray a dragon of fire, sweeping through the zombie horde.
Like insecticide killing insects, she quickly burned the zombies to charcoal.
But looking around, there were just too many zombies.
Megan's eyebrows furrowed as she pushed her ability to the limit.
A man carrying a heavy iron box came to her side.
The box was filled with the highest purity alcohol.
Megan swallowed the alcohol and then spewed out flames like a dragon, carving deep trenches into the ground like a scythe!
After a hard-fought battle, killing countless zombies, they finally managed to fend off this terrifying wave of attacks.
Surveying her once-pristine refinery now in shambles, littered with bodies, Megan was seething. "What the hell are these things? They're not average zombies! Find out where they came from and if someone's controlling them!" she barked.
At Frostwood Base, Sebastian activated his ability and led 500 elite warriors in a head-on charge against the zombie horde!
With his ability, these warriors became powerful fighters with both offense and defense!
They didn't even bother with guns, just grabbed huge battle axes, war hammers, and iron rods and went toe-to-toe with the zombies in brutal close-quarters combat.
Turns out, this was way more effective than shooting from a distance.
Even the frozen corpses got absolutely wrecked, smashed to bits by these warriors.
At Silverlake Base, they even used the main cannons of ships docked in the deep-sea area to bombard the zombie horde.
"Where the hell did these things crawl out from? Some rival crew flexing their muscles? Or is there some underground freak show we've been missing?" Leonard frowned, his voice tight with worry.
Although the zombie horde's attack was fierce, it was not enough to inflict too much damage on the major forces.
After all, the major forces had fierce firepower and a considerable number of powerful Psychics.
Steven and the three major bases managed to solve the immediate problem relatively smoothly.
Although there were losses, they were still within a bearable range.
However, the Snowfall Cult was in a dire situation.
Over the past month, they had rapidly absorbed followers, causing the cult to expand quickly.
In the core area of the Snowfall Cult in Seldwa District, there were over ten thousand followers!
And among these people, more than 70% did not have strong combat abilities and didn't even have weapons.
This large crowd attracted a massive number of zombies.
That night, after the Snowfall Cult followers finished their prayers, they returned to their tents to rest.
To keep warm, they all stayed in a few enclosed buildings.
At night, they lit bonfires and ate canned food and red holy fruits picked from the sacred tree.
Among these people were residents of Sunshine Community who had come with Chase.
Chase's son, Delbert, was very happy after arriving at the Snowfall Cult camp.
He finally had the chance to make new friends.
In just a few days, he had befriended a girl his age named Clio Webb from the neighboring tent.
Even in the apocalypse, people still craved that human connection.
Both teenagers, they clicked fast and started catching feelings.
In this messed-up world, it was like they were meant to find each other.
Living right next door and with nothing to do but pray, they spent every day hanging out.
Delbert pulled out his prized books, and Clio showed off a painting she'd scavenged.
At that age, everything was pure, and so were their feelings.
Delbert quietly promised himself that once this apocalypse crap was over, he'd marry Clio and spend the rest of his life with her.
No one noticed the pairs of eerie green eyes already watching them from the darkness.
The night watch soldiers saw shadowy figures around them.
But it was too dark to see the zombies clearly.
The guards thought they were survivors looking for shelter and called out, "Where are you from? You need help?"
But as they got closer, they knew something was off.
Their sickly blue-purple skin, dead eyes, and gruesome wounds screamed they weren't alive.
"Monsters!" The guards yelled, panic in their voices.
At that moment, the zombies attacked!
Where there was fire, there were living people, and the zombie horde swarmed like moths to a flame.
But this time, they were not heading to their doom but bringing death to the unprepared camp!
The night watch soldiers hurriedly attacked.
Gunfire erupted.
But the zombies were not afraid of these weapons; even with their heads shot to pieces, they could still pounce and tear apart the living!
"Help me, help me!!"
Terrified screams echoed from every corner of the camp, chilling to the bone!
The desperate cries around the Snowfall Cult camp finally woke everyone up.
But by the time they realized they were under attack, the fearless guards could hardly harm the zombie horde.
The Snowfall Cult followers could face death for their faith.
But these zombies not only did not fear death but were also extremely hard to kill!
They even had far greater attack power than ordinary people.
Without the limitations of a brain, they could unleash their physical strength freely.
In the darkness, the dense zombie army surrounded the entire Snowfall Cult camp, launching a terrifying assault!
Hundreds of followers were quickly bitten to death by the zombies.
Some guards realized these were the legendary zombies and fearfully aimed for their heads.
However, this did nothing to stop them and instead attracted more zombies with the noise, who pounced on him and tore him to pieces!
Desperate cries echoed through the Snowfall Cult camp.
The guards were easily killed, and the remaining ordinary followers, still resting, had no way to form an effective defense.
The powerful zombies rushed in like starving bandits entering a buffet.
