Lille Camp City, King's Office.
Lin Yi looked at the businesswoman from the United States.
"Are you satisfied with this answer?"
"Thank you for your explanation, but if you ever have the chance to come to the United States, we'd be grateful if you could share intelligence with us. Of course, it won't be for nothing."
The woman showed a Mona Lisa-like smile.
Lin Yi also smiled.
At this point, the king interrupted the silent communication between them.
"Now, let's talk business. I also want to hire you to help me against the red zombies. But I don't know when they will attack. If I need you, how soon can you bring people to Lille City?"
"I can be there in at most half a day."
Lin Yi considered for a moment and said.
If he could drive at full speed on flat roads, riding the "Dagger" motorcycle, it would only take him two and a half hours.
Berlin is about 500 kilometers from Lille.
The king was surprised at this speed.
"Do you have aircraft or something?"
"Ha, even better than an aircraft."
Lin Yi said, waving his hand.
His modified, level-four "Dagger" motorcycle appeared in the office.
"Is this the 'Doomsday Warhorse'? No, wait... a level-four one? Quite interesting!"
The businesswoman murmured, as several officers were almost drooling.
Regaining her composure, the businesswoman got to the point.
The crowd began discussing the upcoming action.
The massive zombie horde was coming from Luxembourg, currently passing through a forested area, so using aircraft to shoot from high altitudes wouldn't be very effective.
Trying to set the trees on fire wouldn't work well either, as zombies could easily avoid the flames.
Therefore, the decision was made to stage a resistance battle in Brussels, as it was right on the zombies' path.
Due to the abundance of trees, they couldn't use many vehicles, but there would be air and artillery support.
Because of the large size of the zombie horde, three forces would be deployed along the entire defensive line to engage with them.
The left flank would be defended by the Americans, with support from Lin Yi.
The central area would be defended by a special team of Professionals, and the British would defend the right flank.
The Americans would hold the line and provide reinforcements.
If they had to retreat, the Americans would use their "secret weapon"—
to block the infected creatures.
They officially refer to these walking dead as "Infected," and not "Zombies."
The battle would begin around noon the next day.
The Americans suggested sending a helicopter to pick up Lin Yi, but he refused.
He stated he could arrive before sunset.
After the meeting, Lin Yi went to the recruitment center.
He teleported the last batch of newly recruited personnel and asked Blaise to end the recruitment campaign.
Blaise had already recruited all the excellent professionals the previous day, totaling about a hundred people.
Lin Yi returned to the Shelter,
and started having lunch.
He didn't have much time, so he ate quickly.
Before this great battle commenced, he wanted to settle the new members and see if he could advance the doctors to level 10.
...
In the afternoon, the Shelter's Racial Meeting began.
A large group of humans, Faru people, and Hilania people gathered in the conference room on the second floor of the main castle.
Lin Yi began: "First, I want to know your thoughts about your new home."
"To be honest, many of us haven't fully accepted everything happening here. But undeniably, we all really like your city, though we are also terrified because the Shelter constantly faces various challenges."
The Hilania representative was the black leader Agdandur Susin.
Beside him were two individuals, an elderly female social activist, and a tall, thin male scientist in a white lab coat.
Agdandur Susin continued.
"But we have already launched outreach projects, striving to inform our people of the current situation. Most of them already realize that the Shelter is our race's last hope of survival, so—we will fight for you, and for our new home, Boss Lin Yi!"
"Great. What about the Faru people?"
Lin Yi nodded, turning to the Elves.
"Boss! Thank you for saving us, in the last battle, we were fortunate to witness all the horrors of the Sea of Space-Time... without you, we wouldn't have had a chance to survive...
Now we will do everything we can to meet your requirements, although... we still don't know what role we can play..."
"That's not a problem; I want to conduct an experiment, but I need twenty Faru people, including the elderly. It would be even better if their wing colors differ."
"I'll do my best to cooperate with you!"
"Good, today I'm showing you my Earth, if we can succeed in saving it, your people can settle there, rebuild your civilization... Meeting adjourned. Start preparing now..."
The meeting ended.
Lin Yi then teleported to Lille to pick up Blaise and the remaining staff, and then headed to Brussels.
On the road out of town, he encountered a group of refugees.
These people had just faced the red zombies and managed to fight their way through after a bitter struggle.
When they saw Lin Yi, dressed in futuristic armor and riding a similarly styled motorcycle, they were inspired.
They thought that Lille would surely be able to help them...
The Americans and Lille people had already cleared all towns along the main road, so Lin Yi began searching for smaller towns that appeared untouched.
Needless to say, most of such towns had already been ransacked by Lille's Hunters, leaving only zombies behind.
He soon reached Longse Town in Belgium.
Before the apocalypse hit, it had a population of 30,000. Currently, there were zombies with about 20,000 Experience Points.
As usual, Lin Yi stopped about 600 meters from the town, set up metal walls, and then summoned engineers to align and secure them in place.
After that, he called Hubert's people over to demonstrate how to farm Experience Points.
Simultaneously, he arranged for soldiers to provide cover, calling in about 200 Hilania Special Forces team members.
They equipped the Hilania people with Sylvie's Long Spears, swords, and bracelets.
Then they activated the zombie bait, turning the power up to cover about a quarter of the town.
A soldier murmured when he saw a massive horde of thousands of zombies pouring out of the town.
"Looks a bit terrifying..."
"Don't panic! Wait until they hit the wall and stop, then start hacking. Remember, after killing a zombie, immediately retreat to the back of the line to claim rewards,
otherwise, we'll throw you back in there; we don't want anyone getting bitten because of distraction!"
A veteran who had participated in such operations four times and had seen much, shouted.
Like a torrent, the zombie horde slowly crashed into the steel wall, but the wall didn't budge an inch.
Zombies stretched their arms through the gaps.
Some of the zombie's skin was gray, and their faces were somewhat deformed.
They were also faster and stronger than the other zombies.
"Attack! But take it slow, the zombies aren't going anywhere! There are no zombie leaders or Advanced mutants nearby, so they can't get over this wall!"
The veteran shouted while carefully observing all the newcomers, keeping an eye on the overall situation.
At this moment, a soldier joyfully shouted.
"I leveled up to level 1!"
While excited, he retreated to the middle of the Steel Fortress, and then... his body began to change.
His legs became sturdy, arm muscles more developed, and his skin turned yellow.
"Hey, I can transform into a weasel! Immune to level 1 viruses, with bonuses in Power and Agility!"
"You look disgusting!"
A soldier laughed, his laughter quickly spreading among all the Hilania soldiers.
Lin Yi watched all this and nodded.
Just as he thought, the blacks came to Earth and by killing monsters, they gained recognition, thus leveling up.
He jumped into another pile of zombie hordes, starting to hack, needing to level up to 15 as soon as possible.
The 200 Hilania people completed their task in about two minutes, all receiving rewards.
Then a new group appeared, repeating the zombie-killing process, receiving rewards and being able to boast in two minutes as well.
Next was the third group.
The last group was the largest, with nearly 200 Special Forces soldiers, 700 engineers, and 25 scientists.
This took a long time, but fortunately, every Hilania person ultimately leveled up to 1 and received rewards.
Lin Yi decided to open the rewards later.
Now it was the turn of the little elves.
Twenty small Faru people stood in front of the steel wall, staring in terror at the horde of giant zombies, reaching for them through the gaps in the wall.
No weapons were given to these elves because the system guns' recoil would directly break the little guys' arms.
Lin Yi transported Laser Rifles and more personnel to this Slaughter Zone.
A soldier would aim with the rifle, while another soldier lifted a little elf to the trigger, ready to let them pull it.
The laser beam could easily shoot through a walking corpse, sometimes even killing two zombies at once.
The first test subject was Arwen of the Sky.
The warrior in green armor who saved the Sun's Priestess.
Traditionally, Faru people would take a second name based on the color of their wings. When they lost their wings, they'd also lose those names.
The Sun's Priestess was called "Sun's Raya" because her wings were golden, while this warrior was called "Arwen of the Sky" because his wings were blue.
As soon as Arwen killed a zombie, he was flooded with system messages.
Seeing this little guy staring blankly ahead, the soldiers carefully placed him on the ground, waiting to see what would happen.
Unlike the Hilania people who had never been in contact with the system before, Faru people had been intrinsically linked with the system since birth.
[You killed a level 1 Skyborn!]

The system failed to adapt to the evolution of mutated animals into beings with Wisdom.
Alert! A forced update is underway. All your mutations will be reset.
Alert! Compensation calculated, you have earned an extra evolution point.
[Transformation in progress...]
As soon as the system message ended, Arwen's blue wings quickly began to fade.
Within seconds, the wings went from pale blue to blue then almost transparent, and then... disintegrated like dust in the wind.
Arwen twisted in unimaginable pain.
His entire body convulsed in spasms, emitting inhuman screams.
The Faru people wanted to help their companion, but Lin Yi's soldiers stopped them.
They had orders to wait and not to interfere...
