Yun Xiaoxiao pointed towards the southwest direction.
"Let's compete to see who can kill more zombies. The winner gets all the crystal cores collected by the loser."
Tang Yanchi shook his head, "I think since we're testing whether your base's evolution serum is effective, it would be better to compete as teams rather than individuals."
"How about this: you lead your base's people, and I'll lead ours. We'll see which team can kill more zombies. The reward remains the same: the winning team gets all the crystal cores collected by the losing team."
As soon as this was said, everyone around them gasped.
Xiangrui Base had ten members, while Yun City only had six.
This was clearly an attempt to win by sheer numbers.
Too cunning!
Everyone thought Yun Xiaoxiao wouldn't agree, since it was obviously unfair.
But to their surprise, Yun Xiaoxiao nodded.
"No problem, let's do it your way. You lead your base, and I'll lead mine.
Just... you better not go back on your word later."
Yun Xiaoxiao smiled meaningfully.
Tang Yanchi proudly lifted his head, "I would never go back on my word!"
"Brother Jiang Huai, why are you shaking your head?" Wang Dahai looked at Jiang Huai puzzled.
Jiang Huai raised his chin, indicating the direction of Tang Yanchi and his group.
"Those people have already fallen into that little girl's trap and are still gloating about it."
"But Xiangrui Base has more people," Wang Dahai still didn't quite understand.
Jiang Huai chuckled lightly, "Does having more people always guarantee absolute advantage? Throughout history, how many military victories were achieved by the smaller force?"
"You mean, Yun City's people are stronger than Xiangrui's?"
Jiang Huai smiled mysteriously, "You'll see soon enough."
On the other side, Peng Shaowei was in the midst of urgent deployment.
Many soldiers in military uniforms quickly boarded military trucks.
The trucks one by one left the base.
When Yun Xiaoxiao and the others arrived at the city wall, they saw the trucks that had left the base now parked in front of the barbed wire.
Every few meters, there was a small platform.
On these platforms, cannons were being quickly set up.
The remaining soldiers successively set up their firearms, aiming forward, ready for battle.
In addition, some soldiers carried out bundle after bundle of dry firewood from the trucks and threw them into the large ditch between the barbed wire and the city gate.
Once the firewood was thrown, someone would pour gasoline over it.
Of course, besides outside the city, there were also many people on the city wall seriously looking forward.
Most of them were psychics from the western base.
There were also some snipers aiming their guns at the barbed wire.
Yun Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes.
In her previous life, Peng Shaowei had also deployed like this.
Back then, there were even more weapons.
The psychic's strength was also higher.
But ultimately, they still failed.
The main reason was that the zombie horde's strength was much higher then, with over twenty or thirty sixth or seventh-tier zombies.
There was also a powerful intelligent zombie controlling them from behind.
That kind of combat power increased severalfold.
Yun Xiaoxiao gazed towards the southwest, her fighting spirit burning like a raging fire.
Although it wasn't the same as her previous life, it seemed that only by winning this zombie siege could she finally let go of her lingering obsession.
At this moment, in the southwest direction of the base, thick smoke billowed, as if thousands of troops were charging forward.
The roar was deafening, shaking the earth.
"My god, how can there be so many zombies!"
Many people couldn't help but exclaim.
Hearing about it was one thing, but seeing it with their own eyes was another.
The intense visual impact made everyone feel as if a mountain was pressing down on their hearts.
Tens of thousands of zombies were rushing towards the base.
One thousand five hundred meters...
One thousand meters...
Eight hundred meters...
The distance grew closer, and everyone's mood grew heavier.
This was a battle for life and death.
Win, and live.
Lose, and die!
"Boom!"
"Boom boom!"
The cannons below had already started firing.
The shells, carrying the wrath of thunder, tore through the sky and landed in the dense zombie horde, exploding with a deafening roar.
The sound was terrifying, making people tremble.
Countless zombies were blown to pieces.
Limbs mixed with dirt and dead branches rose into the air and scattered.
But even after the bombardment, there were still countless zombies rushing forward.
They were like fearless martyrs, charging forward without regard for the shells or bullets.
Soon, a large portion of zombies broke through the shelling and reached about two or three hundred meters from the barbed wire.
"Bang bang bang!"
Hundreds of guns fired at the zombies in the front lines.
Rows of zombies quickly fell.
But still, some zombies dodged the bullets and charged forward.
Their numbers were too great; when those in front died, others immediately took their place.
In no time, the vanguard of zombies had reached the barbed wire.
Some zombies stepped on other zombies' bodies quickly climbed the barbed wire.
In the blink of an eye, the barbed wire was filled with zombies.
Seeing that it was impossible to stop them, Hao Ren grabbed a megaphone and shouted.
"Fall back! Quickly! Cover!"
The soldiers in front of the barbed wire quickly boarded military trucks, which sped back to the base.
The snipers on the city wall shot the zombies that were about to climb over the barbed wire, giving their comrades time to retreat.
As soon as the people below retreated, the zombie horde outside had already broken through several sections of the barbed wire.
The zombies rushed forward like a flood.
The wooden bridge over the ditch was pulled back.
"Light the fire!"
Hao Ren gave the order again.
"Boom!"
The entire ditch was instantly engulfed in flames.
The first zombies to approach fell into the ditch and were consumed by the fire.
Even so, the zombies behind them still rushed forward without fear.
Some zombies engulfed in flames even jumped out of the ditch by stepping on other zombies' bodies, lunging towards the city wall.
More and more zombies surged forward.
The ditch was almost filled.
But these zombies seemed endless, stepping on each other, clawing and climbing like a human pyramid.
In addition, some mutant zombies, like geckos, could directly grip the city wall and climb up.
Their speed was extremely fast, and they soon climbed up.
Peng Shaowei's men quickly opened fire.
But these zombies were not only fast but also very agile, dodging bullets and moving quickly through the hail of gunfire.
"No good, we're running out of bullets," Hao Ren's eyes showed concern.
Peng Shaowei stared at the at least fifty to sixty thousand remaining zombies below, his eyebrows tightly furrowed.
"Now, we can only fight it out."
He waved his hand, and all the psychics from the western base prepared to strike.
Meanwhile, Yun Xiaoxiao nodded at Lu Chen and several others.
Everyone immediately understood her intent.
The final showdown, now begins!
