Zombie Beasts Are Attacking, Yun Che Is Injured

Fast-pace battle was always superfunction energy-consuming and physically tiring. Even Yun Che couldn't hold on any longer after the battle lasted for an hour, not to mention the other superfunction possessors. The moment Yun Che said a quick break, Tan Weiye ordered the 50,000 superfunction possessors to stand down and the other 50,000 to take their turn. Most of these people were soldiers, they were disciplined and caused no chaos during the shift-changing.

"Get the hell away!"

Boom!

Shoulder to shoulder, Yun Cheng and Yun Che floated in midair at the front of the team. Yun Cheng's voice sounded both commanding and childish. But surprisingly, all the zombies seemed to comprehend what he said. They moved back like the ebbing tide. Again, some trampled on others during the stampede. Yun Che turned to his brother, his eyes were full of shock. "Can he use Overbearing Airs like that? No, how does Cheng know how to perfectly utilize his advantage?" Also, Yun Che had checked how Yun Cheng floated in the air. It was neither wind superfunction nor air superfunction nor some flying ability, it seemed to be something else that Yun Che couldn't ascertain at the moment.

"Brother, I didn't get dirty today!"

After rudely ordering the zombies to back off, Yun Cheng pointed his finger at himself. There was no stain on his white sports jacket whatsoever. He didn't look like someone who was in battle only a minute ago.

"Silly boy."

Yun Che poked his head and took him to land on the ground. Yun Che was going to do something about his mysophobia, the clever boy kept himself from contamination by fighting in the air. As long as he wouldn't get fussy about weird smells or the dirty stuff that he saw, Yun Che could tolerate his brother.

"Cheng, you…"

"Yehan!"

Yun Che cut off Leng Yehan who came over with a question. Leng Ye Han looked back, Yun Che shook his head at him. Leng Yehan tacitly nodded. No matter what they wanted to ask, it wasn't a good time.

"Han, don't touch me. You're dirty!"

But when Leng Yehan reached out his hands, Yun Cheng loathed. Leng Yehan took a look at his shirt covered with bloodstains, then at Yun Cheng's white jacket. He sighed, "Come and get some rest. Stay close to us."

What else could he do other than putting up with his baby boy?

Leng Yehan beckoned to Yun Cheng to come over. Yun Cheng did follow what Leng said, but he didn't hug his arm intimately as he usually would. Leng Yehan wasn't upset. Chu Haoling and Meng Xu had distributed the spring water that Yun Che gave them to everybody. All the fighters panted and tried to replenish their energy as quickly as possible.

"After another three rounds, let's divide into two groups and take turns, shall we?"

Zhan Yafei had cleared up an area for Chaoyang and Peak people to sit. Yun Che didn't care too much and sat right next to Xing Feng. He lit himself a cigarette when leaning on Xing Feng. They didn't split up into two groups because they were full of energy at the beginning, they wanted to kill as many zombies as possible and the battle to end as soon as possible. But apparently, that couldn't be the long-term strategy. To kill a million zombies, it was essential that they split up.

"OK. You and Yehan need to be in the same group. Cheng only listens to you."

They were worried that Cheng lost control of himself should things go wrong.

"Hurry up and refill your energy. We have 20 minutes at most."

Yun Che nodded and blew out a smoke ring. "We're lucky that the strongest zombies are level 3…"

The Coastal Base was fortunate. After this battle, all the high level zombies nearby would almost be dead, so they wouldn't be under zombie siege for the time being. If the siege happened two years later, there would be all kinds of high-level zombies, even Chaoyang and Peak people would find them tough enemies. Level-6 zombies and above would have intelligence, Yun Che even met level-7 zombie that knew how to embattle in his previous life.

"Right."

Xing Feng sighed as he understood what Yun Che meant. The 20-minute break was soon over, they got about 80% of their superfunction energy replenished. Yun Che said to the speakerphone, "Weiye, is the second shift ready? Let's kill as many zombies as possible during the day because they got better visions than us during the night."

"Yes, they're ready for battle."

Tan Weiye didn't ask for a substitute commander because he and Yun Che were on the same page. They both wished the battle to end as soon as possible.

"Let's go!"

Xing Feng and Yun Che both got up. After making eye contact, they almost simultaneously charged into the zombie herd. The thunder-henced Wind of Blade scythed the heads of a large group of zombies. Xing Feng shot bullets accurately at every head that Yun Che cut off. The bullets extruded the crystal nuclei out of heads, Yun Che used air superfunction to pocket the crystal nuclei.

"Shit, we can't let our captains steal all the thunder. Attack!"

Chu Haoling and the others dashed forward although they were a few seconds slow. The melee superfunction possessors worked smoothly with ranged attackers. Wind boosted fire, earth inflicted defense on teammates, gold were primary attackers, wood and water were helpers. Almost immediately, they threw themselves into the highly intensive battle.

"Attack!"

Tan Weiye led 50,000 level-3 and above superfunction possessors to charge at the zombies as well. Yes, there were numerous zombies but their levels ranged from 0 to 3. With Yun Cheng suppressing the zombies, all the level-3 superfunction possessors fought fiercer and fiercer. The front line was pushed further and further away from the base. Miao Xinbai who was in charge of backup forces sent level-1 or level-2 superfunction possessors to scavenge the battleground and collect crystal nuclei. They moved the zombies' body parts away in case of a stampede when the vanguard forces retreated. It seemed all the level-3 ones were making contributions while in fact, everyone in the Coastal Base participated. Even the commoners got jobs to do. They helped look after the casualties or cooked for them. Everybody got stuff to do and everybody was united. They were defending their homeland in their own ways.

The battle lasted from morning to dusk. Yun Che and his buddies had their lunch among the body pieces. No one counted how many zombies had died, but the longer the battle lasted, the more exhausted they felt. Apart from Yun Cheng, everybody was more or less injured. Luckily, there were 3 light superfunction possessors in the Coastal Base, Chaoyang and Peak people would be prioritized. The 100,000 superfunction possessors under Tan Weiye's command weren't that lucky. The injured could be treated, but the dead couldn't be brought back to life. The worst part was, some heavily injured people might become zombies. Yun Che would have saved those poor guys for the sake of Admiral Tan and Tan Weiye, but today, he just didn't spare time and energy at all.

"Che, how about you get some sleep tonight and fight tomorrow?"

It was Yun Che's turn to rest. Tan Weiye happened to be resting as well. He suggested Yun Che loudly. Although Peak and Chaoyang people were also taking turns, Tan Weiye knew clearly that they fought the hardest on the battleground.

"No. Half of the zombies have been killed, we…"

"Aaaaahh!"

Before Yun Che finished speaking, they heard screams from the main battleground. They terminated the conversation. Yun Che grabbed Tan Weiye and flew the two of them to the front. They saw a large number of zombie beasts attacking their fighters like crazy. Zombie beasts wouldn't be intimated by Yun Cheng's level. There was even a gold zombie dog attacking Yun Cheng.

"Shit!"

Yun Che cursed and dropped Tan Weiye down. He drew out his blade to hack at a zombie cat. But the small cat swiftly dodged his attack. As the cat meowed, a barrage of wooden staked aimed at Yun Che. He parried the wooden stakes, and swept his blade. Streaks and streaks of lightning weaved a web that came for the zombie cat.

"Meow!"

The zombie cat had nowhere to escape. It was cut into pieces. After looting its crystal nucleus, Yun Che launched an attack on other zombie beasts.

"Ouch!"

The real brawl began. The relentless zombie beasts wouldn't give any time to take turns. Yun Che felt the pain from below, some zombie mice were biting his legs!

"Damn!"

The zombie mice's level was low. Yun Che cut them dead. He leaped into the sky and warned, "Watch out for zombie mice on the ground."

"Ah, shit!"

Zhan Yafei howled and cursed exasperatedly right after Yun Che said it. Yang Huaien rushed to her at the fastest speed possible. He killed the zombie mice that wouldn't let her go with the fire blade. Zhan Yafei shouted despite the pain, "Back up a bit, everyone!"

Rustle rustle

Everybody took some steps back. Zhan Yafei stomped the ground, the earth in front of her was sandified. All zombie mice sunk into the sand, as well as many zombies and other zombie beasts.

"Shit! Keep attacking!"

Tan Weiye took a breather and got the command back. When Zhan Yafei de-sandified the earth, Tan Weiye led the superfunction possessors to a charge. It was already dark. Yun Che landed on the ground and gulped down the spring water.

"How are you feeling? Are your wounds serious?"

Xing Feng rushed over to him and worriedly examined his legs. Yun Che shook his head. "I'm OK, let's keep fighting. The zombie beasts have all gathered together. I'll rest after wiping them all out."

The number of orange dots on the air panel suddenly increased. The zombie beasts must have swarmed out.

"Got you. But if you don't feel well, just get some rest, it's OK."

Xing Feng heaved a heavy sigh after looked him in the eyes for quite some time. Only God knows how bad he was feeling. Yun Che didn't even show the wounds to him.

"I got it. Things are different in the evening. Take care of yourself."

They nodded at one another and plunged into the battleground. Peak and Chaoyang people stuck together because it was nighttime. Two or three made up a fighting unit. But Yun Cheng wasn't willing to get down from the sky. He still attacked the zombies in midair because the night wouldn't affect him. He, too, was a zombie, in fact, his ears and nose worked better than any other zombie.

"Shit, it's just endless."

The battle was still ongoing, zombie beasts and zombies kept attacking. Although they were mindless, they could tell whose superfunction power was the greatest. To them, the stronger the person was, the tastier the person would be. Yun Che's level was the highest only next to Yun Cheng, so he drew the most attention of the level-4 zombie beasts and zombies.

Roaaar…

"No!"

"Brother!"

After killing two zombie beasts at a time, Yun Che failed to watch his back. It was already too late for Yun Che to turn around and parry the claws of the zombie beasts and the zombies. And he still had to beware of the enemies in other directions. Yun Cheng shouted in panic as he was the first to notice that Yun Che was in danger.

"Che!"

"Che!"

Xing Feng took a quick look while fighting the zombies. Yun Che was submerged in the tide of zombie beasts and zombies. All of his pals roared and darted at him like crazy.
