Lu Yan suddenly looked into the distance, a stream of light fell into the Soul Banner, it was precisely the Soul Division Banner that Lu Yan had separated earlier, and a message was recorded in the Soul Division Banner.
This was a message from the Soul Division Banner, and throughout the entire Apocalypse Version, Lu Yan had only separated one Soul Division Banner, so there was no doubt this message was from Guo Ze at Gather Point 73.
Looking at the message, several large words were clearly written on it.
"Super-sized zombie horde has formed."
Lu Yan's face revealed a smile, and he turned to speak to the Abyss God:
"Get ready, we'll set off to return to Gather Point 73!"
Three days later, at Gather Point 73, inside the city's defense watchtower.
Li Hao and Guo Ze's expressions were somewhat tense, while at their side, Li Kang, who had once met Lu Yan, paced back and forth in the room, occasionally looking up towards the window. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍
"What to do? What should I do?"
Words of unease muttered from Li Kang's mouth, this fifth-level Transcendent's expression showed incredulous panic, as if some great disaster was imminent.
Beside him, Guo Ze several times opened his mouth to speak but held back, ultimately it was Li Hao who sighed deeply and spoke:
"Don't worry, the fault in this matter is not yours.
Who could have thought, just after we sent the message to the Envoy, those zombies suddenly began to rage."
Hearing this, Li Kang painfully crouched down, grabbing his head with both hands and muttered:
"I am a sinner, I am a sinner!"
Li Hao and Guo Ze, seeing this scene, only exchanged a glance and then sighed in unison.
More than a month ago, they accepted Lu Yan's task to stir up the super-sized zombie horde, and thus began to fully research how to maximally provoke the zombie horde.
After comprehensive investigations and confirming the zombie gathering situation, Li Hao decided to begin provoking the horde from the Grain Storage Plain area.
The Grain Storage Plain, where Gather Point 73 is located, used to be one of the largest granaries pre-apocalypse, with few cities but tens of thousands of scattered villages.
After the apocalypse, this fertile land quickly fell, zombies roamed everywhere on the Grain Storage Plain.
Even after large-scale purges barely cleared an area, zombies from elsewhere soon wandered in.
If the Grain Storage Plain where Gather Point 73 is located could be cleared, and defensive lines established, along with newly developed cultivation techniques from the gather point, it could likely enable the replanting of crops on the Grain Storage Plain.
After stabilizing the grain supply, follow-up industrial production could also be assured, making the rebuilding of civilization not just an empty talk.
After more than a month of planning and effort, relying on Li Kang's Extraordinary Ability, a super-sized zombie horde of about eight million was successfully gathered.
On the vast Grain Storage Plain, such a vast number of zombies stretched as far as the eye could see, withered death followed wherever the zombies passed.
According to the original plan, Li Kang and others only needed to secretly guide the zombies to slow their pace, and upon Lu Yan's return, the super-sized zombie horde could be purged.
For this, Li Kang and others utilized the Soul Division Banner to convey the success message to Lu Yan.
But no one expected that just as they sent the message, the originally guided super-sized zombie horde suddenly began rampaging, at the same time other zombies on the Grain Storage Plain also went into a frenzy.
More zombies seemed to sense something and crossed tens of kilometers to join the horde, quickly pushing the super-sized zombie horde's numbers past ten million, sprinting towards twenty million.
Within a radius of hundreds of miles, almost all zombies joined the horde, making it nearly impossible to estimate specific numbers anymore.
Such a massive number of zombies far exceeded Li Kang's control, even though he used the Spiritual Link to control hundreds of zombies to guide the horde's direction, it was utterly insignificant against this terrifying horde.
The zombie horde broke free of control, advancing towards the direction of the human gathering.
And the first target in the path of this advancing zombie horde was undoubtedly Gather Point 73, merely dozens of kilometers away.
In fact, to be precise, Gather Point 73's defenses are extremely strong, with thirteen-meter-high, five-meter-thick reinforced concrete walls more than capable of stopping most zombies, not to mention a vast array of thermal weapons on the walls.
Even with a million zombies attacking, Li Hao had the confidence to cooperate with the Transcendents within the gather point to hold it.
However, this time, the super-sized zombie horde already surpassed all previous hordes, reaching the magnitude of a natural disaster.
Even if the lowest-level zombies had no intelligence, just by sheer mass, they could forcibly level the thirteen-meter-high walls, let alone a horde of such magnitude surely containing ninth-tier Corpse Kings.
Li Hao had great confidence in Lu Yan's Underworld army, but facing such a terrifying disaster, he couldn't help but question in his heart.
"Can just a few thousand Yin Soldiers from the Underworld really withstand this terrifying zombie horde disaster?"
But as a representative of the Underworld, Li Hao certainly couldn't directly express this, so he could only reassure:
"Rest assured, the Envoy's Underworld army will definitely be able to resolve the zombie horde."
Just then, the sentry, observing the distance with binoculars, suddenly shouted:
"The horde is coming!"
Under the twilight horizon, the endlessly flooding zombie horde covered the entire plain, like a vast sea of death in darkness.
The rotting flesh spread to the edge of sight, over ten million corpses staggered forward, the wind carried waves of stench in the air, washing over the soldiers guarding the walls, almost causing them to retch.
