Chapter 151: Day One (Part 5)
But the power of words has its limits; you can’t win a war with just talk.
We still need thunderous methods and invincible heroes to truly reassure everyone and lead the team to survive together.
“Niubao, get ready to strike.”
Samimi brought Niubao up onto the small city wall, where dozens of rows of zombies had already crowded below.
Two Azure Moon Spearman disciples mainly guarded this spot, their long spears furiously thrusting nonstop.
Their kill rate was already quite fast—both safe and efficient—but it still wasn’t quick enough. The number of incoming zombies outpaced their elimination speed.
“[Exclusive Knight Amplification-Enchantment Combination].”
“[Thorn Crown].”
“[Magic upon Magic].”
“[Cherub’s Blessing].”
Samimi rapidly chanted, strengthening Niubao into a threefold, super-powered Beastperson Nun.
Atop her head was the Thorn Crown, her left hand gripping the blazing white-flamed Enchanted Holy Hammer of Thorns, and her right hand tightly holding the glowing blue-enchanted Golden Sword. Regardless of how powerful she was, just looking at her was enough to be impressed.
Even if the magic enchantment’s effect wasn’t remarkable, Samimi’s auxiliary enchantments were of an unparalleled level. Moreover, the Holy Flame Enchantment was a divine skill designed to counter bloodline creatures. Not just any Beastperson Nun—Niubao could be empowered to a flying state even if she faced a Pig Demon Nun.
Then, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Niubao leapt directly over the wall, landing on the barren ground littered with severed limbs and corpses—a hell no living person wanted to set foot in.
Those two Azure Moon Spearman disciples from the start had thought about jumping out to pierce through the zombies, but after trying for a while, they realized they simply didn’t have the courage. Their legs went weak every time they tried.
But this was actually a good sign—it showed they had self-awareness and brains, not reckless fools.
If any idiot wanted to recklessly get themselves killed, Samimi certainly wouldn’t save them. Better to die quickly.
“Clang clang! Clang clang! Clang clang!”
In the next moment, Niubao wielded the Golden Sword, executing multiple consecutive slashes that carved out streaks of magical sword light, cutting every zombie battering the city gate into eighteen pieces. The gate’s threat was instantly neutralized.
“What!”
From the side came a dragon’s roar-like rushing sound. A spear of azure dragon qi shot past the wall’s base, impaling countless zombies like a porcupine.
It was the S-Rank Adventurer Azure Moon Rampaging Dragon coming to assist!
You could tell right away when a master struck; before it was realistic, simple knight sword slashes, but now it transformed into an ultra-fantasy style invincible flaming wheel sweeping everything away.
Seeing this, Samimi dispelled Niubao’s Holy Flame Enchantment, leaving only the magic enchantment.
Against zombies, it was enough for Niubao to focus on safer mid-range magic slashes; Holy Flame wasn’t needed.
Samimi just wanted to show off the double enchantment’s special effects, but in actual combat, enchantments should be situational. Always double enchanting wastes magic power. Big moves were meant for bosses, not clearing minor mobs.
Holy Flame Enchantment was a divine skill reserved for fighting purebloods; against zombies, magical sword qi slashes would suffice.
This completely dumbfounded those two spearman disciples.
It was understandable for their master, the S-Rank Azure Moon Rampaging Dragon, to jump in and kill, but how was this little Beastperson Nun so reckless? How was her strength so overwhelming?
They realized they were so scared their legs went weak, yet this Beastperson Nun, no older than fifteen, showed no fear facing millions of zombies outside, sword slashing mercilessly, sword qi flashing.
One by one, the zombies’ half heads flew into the air, and her expression didn’t flicker with any emotion—as simple as stepping on ants.
Hmph! Of course! The magical sword qi Niubao unleashed was consuming Samimi’s magic power, so she naturally showed no expression.
“Nun, how long will this zombie tide last?” Papal Left Hand arrived at the gate, asking.
“One night.” Samimi answered.
“Everyone might not have the stamina to hold out that long.” Papal Left Hand said.
“That’s not a problem. If you can’t hold on, you’ll just get eaten bit by bit by zombies. I don’t think anyone wants such a painful death, right?” Samimi said with a light laugh.
“Then I’ll help too, to ease everyone’s burden.” Papal Left Hand prepared to act.
“Left Hand, don’t intervene.” Samimi stopped him.
“Why?” Papal Left Hand was puzzled.
Samimi scanned the eerie forest calmly and said, “The enemy is definitely watching us. We can’t expose too much information fighting these small zombies. You’re the strongest in our team; you can’t reveal your strength so easily.”
Papal Left Hand wanted to ask how he saw anything with his blindfold, but in the end, he held back.
He calmly asked, “Who exactly is our enemy?”
“Purebloods,the true vampires. These are just zombies infected by Corrupted Blood. Tonight is only a test.” Samimi answered.
At that moment—
“Ding ding dang dang! Ding ding dang dang!” The alarm sounded from the watchtower, snapping everyone to high alert.
“Left Hand, Nun, look there!” A female spearman disciple pointed her spear forward and shouted.
Everyone followed her spear tip and saw several tall, pitch-black figures moving within the eerie forest.
Flames streaked through the darkness as a young adventurer archer on the watchtower finally fired a few incredibly precise sniper arrows, all hitting those dark giant figures.
Wide-eyed, they saw four three-meter-tall muscular giant zombies.
Unlike the mangled, defenseless small zombies, these giants were solidly built with taut muscles like tanks, their defense maxed out.
Not only that, their fists were as big as earthenware pots, and they wielded bizarre massive weapons: shattered great hammers, twisted iron shovels, even rusty giant ship anchors.
No matter the weapon, any single strike could break through their walls!
These monsters posed a real threat to the expedition team’s safety. They couldn’t just let them rush the walls like they did with the small zombies.
“Niubao, take them down!” Samimi commanded.
Niubao leapt straight out again, dual-wielding to charge the giant zombies.
At the same time, Azure Moon Rampaging Dragon swung his Azure Dragon Spear and sprinted forward to engage the giants.
The azure dragon qi swept across the battlefield, leading the assault on the giants with countless spear shadows hammering them head-on.
But then—
“Boom!”
The giant zombies actually withstood the spear’s powerful assault, like crushing a dragon underfoot—truly domineering.
However, their bodies were riddled with spear holes—at least a hundred stabs—Corrupted Blood flowing freely, but none of it stopped their advance.
They felt no pain; such minor mortal wounds were like an itch.
And the giant zombie, riddled like a hornet’s nest, swung its rusty giant ship anchor. One sweeping blow crushed a whole horde of small zombies into rubble.
They were fighting among themselves, forcing even the S-Rank Adventurer to dodge their attacks.
