Chapter 420: Against 40,000,000 - Part 2 (1/2)

”What is this? Why would they split?” Gan Shuo could not see the enemy as it was night. However, he noticed that the commander group and the Lord split up as they were not far from the wall.

He saw Lord Shaoyang was the only one to keep advancing while the General, Vice General, Commanders, and Captains formed a short line five two hundred meters away from the city wall.

Only a person walked forward, and that person was Lord Shaoyang. From many perspectives, together would give them a higher chance to win instead of splitting like this.

For someone who had seen Lord Shaoyang fight the spirits, Liao Zhenya and Zhen Yang's eyes gleamed. After watching the battle against the spirit, it was a lie if they did not want to know their Lord's full power.

This was their chance to witness that power. The power they might attain in the future. Might or dream of, nothing wrong with dreaming, of course.

After a certain distance or about three hundred meters ahead of the commanders' line, the three noticed their Lord Stopped.

”We will know very soon, stop blabbering and just watch, Uncle Gan,” Zhen Yang reminded the older man to be quiet.

Gan Shuo decided to stay and watch as he earned annoyed stares from the other Tarriors. The Tarriors seemed to dislike him for mouthing the Lord. The older man decided to pretend to not notice the stares as he looked straight at the battlefield.

The vibration was getting stronger and stronger. He could feel that despite standing on the sturdy wall. After a while, he could see the black swarm move in his direction.

The moonlight showed him what he would face soon. It was a mad rush from the swarm of zombies. He then noticed Lord Tang raised his hand. He did not know what it meant, but he knew very soon what it did mean.

A commander, Fire Witch, sent a big fireball toward the swarm. It was the scale he had not seen before. Triple size of the SUV? Double size of the bus?

Seven giant fireballs illuminated the night and gave him a better sight of the incoming enemies. Gan Shuo took a deep breath as he could see many giants amongst the zombies. The giant zombies were the scariest as they were easily noted from afar. There were even a few that were around fifteen meters tall. That was a rough estimation since he was far away from the giant. Not that he wanted to get closer to the giant zombies, he still wanted to meet his wife and children.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Seven consecutive explosions resounded as the fireball hit the swarm. The fire engulfed a big chunk of the zombie armies. Looking at this, a thought crossed in Gan Shuo's head, 'Never offend this commander if he does not want to get roasted.'

Thanks to the explosion, the sight of the enemies became even clearer. Gan Shuo looked at the swarm, but he could not see the end of the swarm. It was as if the zombies were endless despite the big explosion.

Gan Shuo returned his view to his Lord, the only hope in his heart. Then he noticed that more and more figures appeared beside him. He even saw a giant beast appear next to Tang Shaoyang, ”What is that!?”

—Why did you command your woman to burn the precious sacrifices? A few thousand sacrifices are gone now.

Zowen did not understand the act of burning the zombies. Why did he explode zombies into dust?

”Morale! It's for my people to show!” Tang Shaoyang calmly replied as he watched the zombie armies stop right after the explosion.

”While the victor has been decided, I need to boost my people's morale to encourage them in the battle later,” that was the purpose of asking Suyin to burn the zombies.

”Let's stop with the chit-chat, are you guys ready for the battle? I need your help to contain all these zombies and please refrain from extinguishing their corpses!” After the instruction, Tang Shaoyang tried the newly evolved skill.
