Apocalyptic Hero System

This sudden news stunned Li Yuanhong. He knew the meaning behind this news.

While Li Yuanhong was dazed, a sharp flash suddenly hit the horizon in the distance, followed by a deafening thunder, which made Li Yuanhong wake up from his daze.

Okay, great, send the information quickly and ask everyone to evacuate. It's going to rain soon. Avoid lightning first. Li Yuanhong ordered.

Flying in the air during this thunderstorm is particularly dangerous. Li Yuanhong doesn’t want the airship to be damaged for no reason. Although this will make Li Yuanhong lose the advantage of aerial reconnaissance, the hole dug for the zombies has been dug. Li Yuanhong is not afraid of the zombies running away. .

With bursts of thunder, the sky became gloomier, as if the sky was covered with dark lead, which not only turned the day into night, but also made people feel extremely depressed.

Under such dark clouds, a group of corpses surrounded Tianma Mountain. The number of densely packed corpses exceeded nearly ten million. If this were placed in other countries, these zombies could bulldoze half of the country's survivor base. .

The zombies began to surround Tianma Mountain. Li Yuanhong could only use the occasional flash of thunder and lightning to instantly see the approaching zombies. The other soldiers could only wait anxiously for orders, because the surroundings were dark and there were no humans with enhanced vision. , can't see very far at all.

Get ready to fire. The corpse group has entered the range of the artillery fire. This time all the artillery fire will be fired. Don't show mercy to me! Li Yuanhong said with his eyes fixed forward.

Although the soldiers did not see any zombies, they firmly believed in Li Yuanhong's order. Soon all the one hundred artillery pieces were adjusted. As Li Yuanhong's order was issued, one hundred artillery pieces fired in a salvo, and a hundred bright spots were cut. The clouds suddenly plunged into the advancing group of zombies. With the light of the explosion, people could clearly see the zombies that were hit by the energy and were thrown into the sky.

Although the fire from a hundred cannons was very fierce, the number of zombies this time was too much. Soon the zombies rushed through the artillery fire area and began to rush towards the dense forest at the foot of the mountain. As the intensive gunfire rang out, they rushed to the front Zombies fell in rows, but this time the zombies that rushed over were not one or two hundred at all, but tens of thousands. There were only a few hundred soldiers in the dense forest, and they were unable to stop the zombies' advance. What's more important is that the gloomy sky has greatly reduced the soldiers' marksmanship. Many soldiers shoot based on their feelings and there is no accuracy at all.

Abandon the first line of defense! Li Yuanhong ordered as he watched the corpses below approaching the woods.

Brother Li, did you withdraw too early? The guard hoped that the first line of defense could hold off the zombies for longer.

There's no need to insist. It's too dark now for soldiers to shoot. If the zombies are too close, it will be difficult to move down. We can use the mountain to stop the zombies. Li Yuanhong said.

Okay! The guard knew that Li Yuanhong was very concerned about the life and death of the soldiers, so he ordered the first-line soldiers to retreat downwards.

Soon, there were no gunshots in the woods, and there was no human resistance. The zombies moved faster and were about to approach the woods. But just when the zombies just stepped into the woods, there was a sudden explosion at the feet of the zombies, and The explosion continued to extend towards the group of corpses, blowing the crowded group of corpses to the ground. This was the minefield that Li Yuanhong had laid in advance.

However, the mine formation only blocked the zombie swarm for less than ten seconds. The zombies that came up soon swarmed into the woods, and then there were explosions and wailing sounds in the woods. It was obvious that there were various traps all over the woods. .

The group of zombies finally broke out of the woods, but found that they were facing a gentle slope, and humans had built many fortifications on the hillside. The zombies that had just rushed out of the woods were immediately attacked by human guns and cannons, and they had not yet reacted. , many zombies were beaten back into the woods and never got up again.

At this moment, a gust of wind also swept through the Magic City, causing the walking zombies to stagger around. Some zombies even fell directly to the ground, becoming a stumbling block for subsequent zombies to advance, and were eventually trampled to death.

The human beings were lying in the fortifications and were hardly affected. Instead, they took advantage of the zombies being slowed down by the wind to inflict further damage on the zombies.

After the strong wind passed, the heavy rain that had been holding for a long time finally fell. As a result, the whole world was enveloped in a curtain of rain. In less than five minutes, water began to accumulate on the ground. In some places, the water had even disappeared. Over the knee.

The zombies began to pour towards Tianma Mountain in the rain. The giant zombies believed that this time they would completely surround the humans in Tianma Mountain, even if there were heavy rains to stop them.

The sound of gunfire was intertwined with the sound of thunderstorms. The rain made both zombies and humans uncomfortable. The rain made the roads muddy. Zombies' joints are not very flexible. Many zombies would slip and fall while walking. If this were normal times, It doesn't matter, but when the zombies attack, once they fall, it will be difficult for the zombies to get up.

Similarly, although human fortifications have also been drained, the heavy rains were too heavy and many places were not drained in time. The tunnels were quickly filled with water, leaving the soldiers to fight in the cold water, which was really uncomfortable.

Both sides were struggling, one in order to survive, the other in order to eliminate. The battle lasted from noon to dark, and the heavy rain never stopped. If the human army had not been stationed on the mountain, it would have been flooded by the heavy rain.

Li Yuanhong stood on the mountain, looking at the corpses at the bottom of the mountain from time to time, and observing the weather. Although the heavy rain had lightened up, it was still sparse, and it seemed that it would not stop until midnight.

Brother Li, is it almost time for the soldiers to withdraw? the guard asked, looking at the soldiers soaking in the water at the foot of the mountain.

No, we can't evacuate now. If we evacuate at this time, the zombies will be in vain! Li Yuanhong said.

But the soldiers have been holding on for five or six hours, and now many soldiers are numb from shooting. The guard said with some worry.

Yes, the soldiers are very tired now. In this way, bring up the reserve team and replace the current front-line soldiers. Also, increase the intensity of artillery fire and add some ingredients to the zombies so that he can send more zombies over. Li Yuanhong said.

Okay! the guard reluctantly agreed.

When humans have reached their limit, the giant zombies are not having a good time either. After a whole afternoon of attack, zombies from half the city were sent out, but they failed to capture the human positions, so many zombies died.

At this time, two giant zombies stood in front of the giant zombie leader, their heads lowered.

You two trash, are there many humans? Are they higher level than you? How come you couldn't take down such a short mountain all afternoon? the giant zombie leader roared.

Your Majesty, it's not that we don't work hard, it's that the hillside is too slippery and our people can't stand firmly on it, let alone charge. We sent ape corpses up there, but they can't even run! one of the giant zombies complained. .

I don't want to listen to excuses. I just want results. Even if you use your men to do it, you have to kill those humans. I only give you four hours. If you still can't take it in four hours, you two will take the lead. See you there. The giant zombie leader said without mercy.

this…

The two giant zombies looked at each other helplessly and could only retreat silently. For them, any argument now might cause the giant zombie leader to shoot them to death on the spot.

There was no way, in order to complete the leader's mission, the two giant zombies could only mobilize more zombies from the city, and even mobilized many mutant zombies and zombies with special abilities, just to complete the leader's mission quickly.

However, the giant zombies did not notice that the extremely rapid rainstorm did not cause the water levels of several rivers in the city to rise, and even the water levels of some rivers dropped a lot.

The battle entered the night, but it became even more exciting. Originally, Tianma Mountain was not very high, and humans only set up three lines of defense. Each line of defense was more than thirty meters apart. The first line of defense was only more than forty meters away from the foot of the mountain. Due to the heavy rain, The mountain was relatively slippery, which made it difficult for the zombies to attack. After half a day of fighting, the corpses of the zombies became paving stones, which finally allowed the zombies to attack faster. Moreover, the giant zombies brought in zombies with special powers, and various magic attacks began. Covering the human position, humans finally began to suffer casualties.

Report to the commander-in-chief, we have suffered heavy casualties and the first line of defense cannot be defended! A noncommissioned officer hurried over and reported.

After hearing the report, Li Yuanhong frowned and thought for a moment, then said: Order the troops to retreat directly to the third line of defense.

Yes! The sergeant went down to give the order.

Brother Li, just retreat to the third line of defense. There will be no depth behind you! the guard quickly reminded from the side.

If we retreat to the second line of defense, do you know what the result will be? Li Yuanhong asked.

This...should be better, right? The guard really hadn't considered this issue.

The reason why we have suffered such huge losses now is that the zombies have brought in supernatural zombies. The shooting distance of these supernatural zombies is generally within a hundred meters. Our first line of defense is only fifty meters away from the woods at the foot of the mountain. Duomi, this distance is an insurmountable isolation zone for ordinary zombies, but for zombies with special powers, it is a distance that can be easily attacked. Li Yuanhong pointed to the woods at the foot of the mountain and said.

And another point is that zombies with supernatural powers hide in the woods and attack outsiders. Our soldiers cannot fight back based on guessing. These are often empty shots, and it is not easy for the zombies with supernatural powers in the woods to locate their position. Li Yuanhong continued.

If we retreat to the second line of defense, even though we have retreated more than thirty meters, we are still within the attack range of the zombies with supernatural powers. The zombies with supernatural powers can still hide in the woods and attack us. Our dilemma remains. No change.

But if we withdraw to the third line of defense, we will change from a passive situation to an active one! Li Yuanhong said.
