(2) How Could I Possibly Let You Down? (2)

The ground trembled as if there were an earthquake.

Tien Dao was extremely startled. How could there be an earthquake out of the blue? But when he turned his head and looked into the distance, his eyes widened completely. A vast, pitch-black mass of zombies was rushing towards him.

The scene before him directly made his eyes pop out, as if he had seen a ghost.

"My God, what is going on?" Tien Dao was stunned by the scene before him. Although he couldn't count how many zombies there were, by his estimation, there were at least tens of thousands.

A pitch-black mass.

Immediately after.

Tien Dao seemed to have thought of something. He looked at the strange zombie. "Did you control them?" He suspected that this was the work of the strange zombie he was controlling.

No one else was attracting the zombies, so how could such a large number of zombies appear here so inexplicably?

"Grrr..."

The zombie let out a low growl at Tien Dao.

Although he couldn't understand what the zombie's growl meant, Tien Dao felt that this was the zombie's response to him, as if it were saying, "That's right, the zombies you see were all summoned by me."

"Ha ha ha, good, that's great!"

Tien Dao was immediately overjoyed. If he hadn't gotten the zombie's response, he would have been extremely worried, not knowing what was going on with these zombies. The best course of action would have been to find a place to hide. How could he possibly fight against this horde of zombies?

At this moment.

Colonel Tran's face was very ugly, and a look of fear flickered in his eyes.

The situation in the distance had exceeded his imagination.

A massive number of zombies, a pitch-black mass, with no end in sight, surged forward like a torrent. When he had encountered zombie attacks in the past, he could remain calm.

Because he believed that the defensive capabilities of the base's walls could absolutely not be breached so easily.

But now, the number of zombies before him had completely shocked him speechless, unable to even say anything.

"Co... Colonel, how is this possible?" Vuong Du stammered.

He was also terrified.

Not just him, but all the other survivors were the same.

Even those Awakened were the same.

Their hands couldn't help but tremble.

It wasn't due to any external force, but the sense of pressure from the scene before them was truly too strong, causing their hearts to tremble uncontrollably.

So many zombies... they had only seen such numbers when they fled the city before. After that, they had never seen it again, let alone this horde of zombies gathered together, surging towards the base in an organized and premeditated manner. If they hadn't read the "Zombie Illustrated Guide"...

Even if they racked their brains, they might not have been able to figure out what was going on.

But now, they had some idea in their hearts.

Colonel Tran said in a deep voice, "We may have been targeted by some kind of zombie. A zombie with this kind of ability is very likely a Creator, the most terrifying Creator mentioned in the guide."

As he spoke these words...

Everyone at the scene remained silent.

"Creator" was a term from the "Zombie Illustrated Guide". According to the records in the guide, this type of zombie could be said to be terrifying to the extreme,根本不是他們能夠對付的.

The only one who could possibly deal with it was Lam Pham from the Hoang City Sunshine Shelter.

"Colonel, should we contact Lam Pham from the Hoang City Sunshine Shelter? Although we don't know the real situation, the contents of the guide were all written by him. If things continue to develop like this, our base may not be able to withstand it," Vuong Du said.

Colonel Tran's expression was extremely grave.

Could they withstand it?

They definitely couldn't.

The number of zombies approaching in the distance was truly too great. Even if their firepower was very strong, they absolutely couldn't hold them off.

"Vuong Du, go and make the call now. This is the number. No matter what, you must contact him," Colonel Tran said urgently. If Ton Nang knew the situation right now, he would definitely reveal a very helpless expression.

Weren't they just asking for trouble?

Why did they have to wait until danger descended to make contact?

Were they just playing for thrills?

"Okay." Vuong Du took the number and ran at high speed towards the base's communication center. But he was also doubting in his heart, could they hold out until the other party arrived?

After all, the Hoang City Sunshine Shelter was too far from here.

To get here...

Vuong Du's heart panicked even more. This could just be a form of self-comfort.

Outside.

Colonel Tran arranged the next steps. "Little Trieu, you immediately have the women, children, and elderly in the base go to the underground shelter. Tell them not to open the door until they receive confirmation of safety."

"Yes, Colonel."

Trieu Tieu Thien was also very nervous. He hurriedly left to carry out the colonel's orders. The current situation was beyond imagination. Seeing that massive horde of zombies, his heart was also pounding, and he felt an indescribable sense of pressure.

He was truly very scared.

But this fear could only be buried in his heart. Some things had to be faced bravely.

"Everyone, danger has arrived. I know that when you see these zombies, you will all think, can we deal with them with our current situation? But we have no choice. We can only face it. This is our last retreat. Once we lose it, we will have nowhere to retreat."

"If anyone is afraid, if anyone doesn't want to die, then go and wait in the basement. Perhaps the contents of the "Zombie Illustrated Guide" are true, and we can wait for rescue. So the choice is yours."

Colonel Tran looked at everyone.

And everyone also looked at Colonel Tran.

"Colonel, we won't retreat! We must fight this group of things to the death! This is our last retreat. If we retreat, we'll have nothing left. Besides, we may not necessarily lose. I believe in the base."

"Yes, I believe in it too."

Everyone spoke word by word, their expressions extremely firm, fully prepared to fight the zombies to the death.

That group of elderly and children were hiding. If the base was really breached, they could at least hide there. If by some chance the "Zombie Illustrated Guide" was all true, there was still a chance of survival.

"Good." Colonel Tran's voice began to tremble.

It wasn't fear.

It was the firm response of the crowd that moved him.

But at this moment.

A voice came from the distance.

"Ha ha ha, scared? Have you felt despair? These zombies were all summoned by me. Today, I will definitely breach your base and let you have a good taste of how painful despair is."

Tien Dao's arrogant voice came.

But he still didn't show himself, obviously afraid of being shot by a sniper.

On the city wall, Colonel Tran heard Tien Dao, and his expression suddenly changed completely. Everyone couldn't believe such a thing.

Controlled by Tien Dao?

Impossible, how could that be?

How could he have reached this stage?

At least tens of thousands of zombies. If Tien Dao could really control so many zombies, their base would have been gone long ago.

Even if Tien Dao had been enhanced, it was impossible for him to be enhanced to this level in such a short time. The "Zombie Illustrated Guide" had recorded it.

An Awakened's ability needed to be improved with crystals, and it was impossible to improve to such a terrifying level in an instant. This was absolutely impossible.

"Tien Dao, what are you dreaming of? How could those zombies be controlled by you? Don't you know your own ability?" Colonel Tran shouted angrily.

Tien Dao shouted, "What do you know? Just wait for death! After my zombie army breaches your base, I want to see with my own eyes you being bitten to death by zombies, without even a single bone left!"

Colonel Tran had nothing more to say.

With things having developed to this point, he knew that only by fighting to the death was there a possibility of survival.

"Colonel, I've made the call."

Vuong Du rushed back, his forehead covered in sweat. A sense of tension always enveloped him. That kind of panicked emotion could only be expressed in a real crisis.

"What did he say?" Colonel Tran asked.

Vuong Du swallowed and said, "He said to hold on for a few minutes, he'll be here soon."

Colonel Tran: ?

Trieu Tieu Thien: ?

Everyone: ?

A bitter smile, their hearts filled with sorrow.

Colonel Tran sighed and said, "Sure enough, he's playing with us. So far away, a few minutes to arrive... sigh, we can only rely on ourselves. Everyone, get ready. No matter what, we must stand and fight them to the death."

He had already prepared for the worst.

That they would fight the zombies to the death.

And that group of survivors hiding in the basement could be safe. If the people from the Hoang City Sunshine Shelter really came, then they could rescue the people in the basement.

"Colonel, look over there!" a survivor shouted urgently.

Everyone looked into the distance.

Tien Dao appeared in the distance, but his situation was not good. He was directly grabbed by the head by a zombie covered in spikes and lifted up.

"Let go of me! Let me go! I'm your boss! What the fuck are you doing to me?" Tien Dao kicked his legs wildly, roaring angrily, then looked at the strange zombie he was controlling. "What are you doing? Tell it to let go of me!"

The Creator covered in spikes was extremely large. It whispered, "Delicious human Awakened. Really not bad. I didn't expect that there was a human base near the city I control. If it weren't for you casually controlling zombies and attracting my attention, I really wouldn't have discovered you."
