Chapter 98 (1/2)

He looked at the corpse in front of him.

This was a young soldier. The young look under the helmet and the freckles on his face showed that this soldier was not older than twenty years old.

But this young life had vanished into the wilderness.

His neck was almost bitten off, and the torn muscle fibers extended to his chest. His head and body were at an odd angle of nearly ninety degrees, and there were spines of white vertebrae protruding from the lacerated surface of his neck, exposed to the air.

On the soldier's body, there were huge and deep marks. It was a scar created by a sharp object, and on the wound, was a huge claw.

Zero ran his hand over the soldier's body and found that his shoulder blades and sternum were broken and almost shattered.

This is caused by a shock of blunt force, and most of the muscle fibers in the body show signs of pulling and cracking.

Thus, in Zero's mind, an animation model of a wolf biting the corpse's neck and then swinging it back and forth before smashing it onto the ground was formed.

Wolves are animals that enjoy food for convenience.

While opening a prey's neck with sharp fangs, the muscles in the neck sway to move the prey, smashing it to the ground and using the impact force to tear apart the prey's body.

And not only wolves, but other species such as crocodiles use the same method of attack.

Under these circumstances, Zero immediately thought of the Corpse Wolf.

However, whether it was the corpses or the claw marks on the armored vehicles, or the footprints on the ground that were close to a meter away, it showed that the forces attacking Phoenix City were not mutated creatures such as the Corpse Wolves.

Neither the form nor the strength of the wolves were able to make the killing marks left on the scene.

At the very least, there were armoured vehicles holding down the army. Zero had never heard of any Zombie Wolves that could kill them all.

The shadow of death loomed over everyone in the caravan, and even the fully armed army was met with misfortune. They could not imagine how many people in the caravan could survive if they encountered such an unknown creature.

When they think about it, they think about zero.

Probably only this expert sniper would be able to escape.

The pale Camber let the caravan move forward. Only by entering Phoenix City would the merchants feel safe.

In the course of the following journey, wreckage of tanks and soldiers like this appeared one after another on the caravan's path.

The corpses that had their stomachs almost cut open gave Kampa a fright. It wasn't until Phoenix City saw them that these corpses completely disappeared.

Zero silently calculated and came to the conclusion that the nearest corpse was less than 200 kilometers away from Phoenix City.

After arriving at Phoenix City, Zero knew that the creatures attacking the army were very smart.

Phoenix City was actually a stronghold built from a dam.

In the past, the towering dam had become an artificial barrier to defend against all kinds of wild and dangerous creatures' attacks. Other than the high firing rate cannons set at multiple fire points, Phoenix City even had four ground-to-air missile defense systems.

However, it was reasonable to assume that the city was close to the Death God's Ridge.

At the entrance of the city, there was a huge phoenix emblem.

Camber told him that the city had been built entirely out of nothing, by former officers and citizens of Morin.

The reason why they built this stronghold was precisely because they hoped that this city could be reborn like a phoenix, and this was also the origin of the name of Phoenix City.

After a series of complex security checks and determining the origins of the caravan, the city developed for Cumberg and company.

After the heavy locomotive passed through the alloy gate that had been reconstructed on the basis of the dam, it arrived at a surface city that was like the city of Angry Reef.

It was naturally surrounded by highways facing the dam and the continuous mountains beyond, but in Phoenix it was a straight, neat street and a planned city of identical buildings, unlike the style of the old urban buildings of Anchor.

Phoenix City exuded a strict and precise urban style, which reminded Zero of the army.
