Sources of Unease

"Brother Jun, there are many second-stage zombies, and even third-stage ones!"

"Quick, call up all the people on rotation, hurry."

Xiao Jun had already stood up, his eyes firmly fixed on the sky.

This wasn't just an extension of the zombie rain time, this was clearly the third zombie rain following closely after the second one.

"Hurry up, don't be in disarray, prepare for battle."

Xiao Jun commanded from the center, and all the sisters moved in an orderly manner.

The first zombie finally landed, followed by a dense swarm of zombies raining down.

Xiao Jun and Wan Qianya took the initiative to attack, prioritizing the killing of the third-stage zombies that landed in the courtyard.

The sisters who were supposed to be resting were also swiftly summoned.

From the beginning, when Xiao Jun decided to move tonight's battlefield back here, everyone sensed that something was amiss, so no one slept, and they were all on standby in their tents.

Once an incident occurred, they could immediately enter combat mode.

"Jiang Yue, you take command."

Xiao Jun handed over the command to Jiang Yue, and he took the lead in joining the battle with his knife.

"Li Jingyin, take two tenacious sisters to hold the first wave."

Li Jingyin had been waiting for this, and she immediately stepped to the front.

"Li Yi, you and another tenacious sister are in charge of securing the flanks."

"Li Qianwan, you two don't join the battle yet, wait for my orders."

Li Qianwan was one of the two flame sisters.

"Whether we can hold out tonight or not, you two are very important, don't run around recklessly, understood?"

Li Qianwan nodded firmly and simply stood by Jiang Yue's side.

"Don't be in disarray, each team leader is responsible for holding off the third-stage zombies."

The zombie horde had already launched their charge.

After a week of fighting, the sisters had become very skilled, and from start to finish, there wasn't a trace of panic, as they acted completely according to Jiang Yue's arrangements.

"Kill!"

Li Jingyin had already engaged with the zombies, and with Li Jingyin's strength, second-stage zombies were no match for her.

Li Jingyin's bravery boosted the morale of the surrounding sisters, and they all shouted out.

"Left side, third-stage."

Jiang Yue calmly commanded.

Two sisters immediately stepped out from the crowd and actively confronted the third-stage zombie.

"Right front. Third-stage, two of them."

Immediately, another four sisters stepped out.

These were sisters who had already advanced to the third stage.

Wan Qianya had joined the battlefield, and even third-stage zombies couldn't escape her assassination, which greatly reduced the pressure on the sisters below.

As for Xiao Jun, after clearing the zombies from the courtyard, he didn't take any further action, but went straight to the rooftop terrace, his two eyes constantly scanning.

Third-stage zombies, at most, posed some difficulty for the sisters, but fourth-stage zombies, those were lethal.

Until now, Xiao Jun's inner unease had not completely disappeared, as if a pair of eyes were watching him from the darkness, and Xiao Jun knew that this must be the fourth-stage zombie.

If the third-stage zombies already possessed animal-like intelligence, then the fourth-stage zombies were the smartest of the animal world.

They were not only more alert but also more patient, and without a certain advantage, they would not come out and fight to the death with humans.

Like a venomous snake hiding in the shadows, you never knew when it would lunge out and bite you.

The battle in Future City had entered a white-hot phase.

Xiao Jun's team, with their quality, had already suffered casualties, and the other forces were in an even more horrific state.

The Lone Wolf Group had suffered over a thousand deaths and injuries, and the dense swarms of zombies were still as far as the eye could see.

Although the Bloody Clothes Gang had fewer people than the Lone Wolf Group, their quality was significantly higher, but after fighting until now, they had also lost over a hundred people.

Future City had the largest population and the largest defense line, but by now, they had already abandoned thousands of corpses, and their defense line had been forced to contract.

Without the presence of high-level experts, when faced with advanced zombies, no matter how many ordinary fighters they had, they could only attempt to see if they could overwhelm the zombies through sheer numbers.

As for those scavengers and stragglers, their deaths were too numerous to count.

"Reinforce the gap in the second squad's line, don't be soft-hearted, if you don't kill them, they'll kill you."

Jiang Yue's voice was hoarse by now, and up until this point, eleven of the sisters had died.

Eight of them died because one sister hesitated for a moment, and after her companion was bitten by a zombie, she couldn't bring herself to finish her off, resulting in her going with her companion, taking another six sisters with them.

If it weren't for Xiao Jun's timely intervention, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

The bloody lesson was right there, and from then on, no one dared to hesitate. As soon as they noticed someone being seized by a zombie, they killed her immediately.

"If there's another incident like this, regardless of whether you've turned into zombies or not, the whole squad is out."

Xiao Jun coldly looked at the sisters before him, the unease in his heart never going away, and at this moment, they were still making such a basic mistake.

Angered, Xiao Jun returned to the rooftop once more, glaring at Jiang Yue on his way up.

Is this the team she's leading?

This was just a minor incident, and Xiao Jun quickly put it out of his mind. Right now, the most important thing was to find the location of that fourth-stage zombie.

But it was just too patient, and until now, it still hadn't appeared, so Xiao Jun couldn't confirm its location and didn't dare to charge out and look for it.

Another half hour passed, and Xiao Jun's nerves were still taut, and he was finally starting to struggle to endure it.

Giving up on observation, Xiao Jun sat cross-legged on the rooftop terrace. If he kept staring like this, at most two hours, he wouldn't need the fourth-stage zombie to take action, he would already have a mental breakdown himself.

Just as Xiao Jun sat down, from the darkness around them emerged more than a dozen extremely fast figures, all third-stage zombies.

"Li Qianwan."

Jiang Yue let out a shrill shout, startling Li Qianwan beside her.

"Sister Yue, I'm here."

"You two go up, one on the left and one at the back, block the path in front."

After watching the show for so long, it was finally their turn.

The recent deaths of more than a dozen sisters also filled her with rage, but if Jiang Yue didn't say anything, she couldn't go up.

Now.

The two of them ran to the very front, one on the left and one at the back, and the sisters beside them used steel knives to hold back a few zombies that tried to pounce on them, then the two of them simultaneously stretched out their hands.

A scorching flame erupted from their palms, forming a one-meter-long fire snake.

They opened their hands, and four fire snakes illuminated a large area in front of them in a fiery red.

"Li Jingyin, you and your group stand in front of them, alternate using your abilities."

With human shields protecting them, the two flame sisters unleashed their powers even more fiercely.

First-stage zombies died on contact, second-stage zombies couldn't last long, and even third-stage zombies didn't dare charge straight into this sea of fire.

"Watch out!!!"

A piercing scream made even Xiao Jun, sitting on the terrace, jump to his feet.

More than a dozen shadowy figures charged towards the courtyard at an extreme speed, and upon encountering the sea of fire, they split into two paths, bypassing the flames and heading straight for the two flame sisters.
