On the battlefield.

The zombie army stopped.

At this moment, the archers began firing enchanted arrows at the zombie horde.

Once the arrow hits the target, it explodes, destroying everything within a 15-meter radius.

Moreover, the archers had about 400 such arrows!

Of course, Lin Yi didn't have that many archers, but he had over a hundred level-3 bows that could shoot three arrows at once.

A hundred explosions echoed consecutively on the battlefield, sending tons of dirt, dust, and zombie bits flying into the air, followed by a bigger explosion that devoured a hundred enemies in one go.

Needless to say, that last explosion was Xiaochuan's masterpiece, and he finally had the chance to try out his "Master of Archery" skill.

The previous day, he had been soaking in the workshop enchanting arrows just for this moment.

But soon enough, more zombies seemed to appear...

They ran madly over the corpses of their fallen companions, trampling them into the mud without hesitation.

They roared and groaned, charging towards the soldiers under the guidance of a voice in their minds.

As the zombie horde crossed the fifty-meter mark, the front-line infantry joined the battle, crossbow arrows and metal projectiles rained down on the approaching zombies.

Unlike fighting in the Sea of Space-Time, here soldiers had to use system weapons to kill zombies to gain experience points and rewards.

But it didn't matter, Lin Yi had plenty of system weapons!

450 level-1 crossbows, 423 level-2 bows, 200 black powder firearms they hadn't used yet, and all other ranged weapons.

In total, the shelter army could use 2106 system weapons in this battle, and almost every weapon was successfully distributed.

Not counting observers and beastmen, there were nearly 2000 armed soldiers on the wall.

However, among these 2000 warriors, more than 800 were civilian volunteers.

They were assigned the most basic weapons, including flintlock pistols and level-1 crossbows.

Lin Yi commanded them like this.

You don't necessarily need skills, or even a good aim, you just need to aim where others are aiming or directly at the zombie horde.

Experience points flowed like a river, rewards appeared every second, the jingling of coins never stopped.

The Americans stood on the wall.

They didn't understand what was happening.

They were told not to attack zombies and couldn't even use their cannons and tanks...

The only thing they were allowed to do was attack any enemy trying to form a zombie wall.

But currently, zombies had never gotten close to this end of the wall, they could only stare dumbfounded.

Just as Lin Yi predicted.

The first wave of zombies was mere cannon fodder, without any mutants or evolved zombies.

The battle continued, and artillery joined the fight.

When a shell hit a large group of zombies, it was spectacular, dozens of corpses splattered in all directions.

"Da Chuan, transform! But don't fly up, you should see how inaccurate the artillery is!"

"Okay, boss."

After hearing the boss's words, Da Chuan asked everyone to step aside.

He leaped and transformed into a fire-breathing giant dragon.

He walked to the edge of the wall and breathed out a flame, instantly roasting fifty zombies and triggering a chain burn.

The system prompt information and the constantly flowing experience points made Da Chuan intoxicated.

Especially now, he was completely safe!

But with the lesson from the last danger, he dared not become complacent.

The number of zombies gradually increased.

They started breaching defenses from various places, continually moving towards the wall, but the Americans were prepared, holding their assault rifles alertly.

So far, everything was proceeding according to plan.

The soldiers were trying to conserve physical strength, artillery and heavy weapons greatly lightened the pressure from zombies, and the mages were keeping their magic value above 90%.

An hour passed, at least 200,000 corpses lay scattered on the battlefield.

The armies in the three zones were still resisting the fierce zombie attacks.

But the battlefields in the UK and Ireland looked chaotic, full of craters and blood everywhere.

Interestingly, during Ireland's passive defense, the Americans became the main attacking force.

However, the Irish mountain monster squad hadn't made a move, waiting for the main mutant zombies to appear.

Lin Yi thought to allow some Americans to leave their posts to support Area Two.

In general, these four armies successfully achieved their set goals, so morale was very high.

But another hour passed...

The moat was overflowing, colossal piles of corpses began appearing under the wall...

The soldiers had killed about 300,000 to 400,000 zombies, yet no mutants had appeared...

The American scouts reported that there were about a million zombies in the army, yet they had already killed nearly half of the zombie horde.

Some soldiers began to feel fatigued, and their weapons started jamming.

"Listen up! Swap those flimsy guns for something decent! Armored infantry, go down! Harvest the outcome!"

Lin Yi commanded, and a rope ladder was thrown down.

He himself jumped directly onto a pile of zombies.

The beastmen followed him down, along with the beastmen and a team of special soldiers equipped with power armor...

Then, about 800 soldiers climbed down the wall to start collecting loot.

Everyone ignored the coins; the rewards and corpses were their primary targets.

The soldiers on the wall provided ample cover for everyone, easily dealing with any enemies that managed to break through the defense line.

Because the corpses were all piled together, the soldiers were able to teleport large quantities of them away at once.

Step by step, the area around the wall was gradually cleared, opening up the moat and the forty meters beyond it on the other side.

But they had to fight for those forty meters, as the cover effectiveness decreased with each meter the zombies advanced.

No matter the risk, greedy Lin Yi was ready to step into hell for those rewards!

Half an hour later.

An American officer ran towards Lin Yi, who was earning experience points with a laser rifle.

"Excuse me, sir vendor?"

"What? Wait a minute... Bam, right in the eye! I'm just a sharpshooter, heh heh."

"Headquarters requests to take some of the supplies reserved for your area. You haven't used them, and the supplies in the first and second areas are running out..."

"You can take them, but leave me at least 10% just in case..."

"Really? Thank you so much!"

Trucks from other areas came over and took away most of the ammunition.

The ammunition originally belonged to the Americans, so Lin Yi wasn't too bothered.

However, he was somewhat uneasy.

The battle had been ongoing for five hours, and he estimated he had killed over a million zombies...

Yet the Zombie General hadn't launched a full-scale attack, instead sending wave after wave of cannon fodder to drain human forces...

And this tactic was quite effective.

At least the ammunition in the other two areas was about to be depleted.

It seemed that the number of zombies was more than expected, and it's unknown how many more would swarm in.

The fuel for planes and artillery was running low, and most of the ammunition had been used up.

In the past few hours.

The zombies only attempted to break through the defense lines twice, and both times were initiated by ordinary cannon fodder.

The Zombie General continuously sent more weak zombies, but the British suffered some moderate casualties in the last attack—

They used excavators with tracks and long cranes on the other side of the wall to pick up bodies and load them into trucks.

The corpses were transported to a special place...

But the excavator couldn't keep up with the number of corpses...

So, inevitably, things finally happened, and the British were unprepared for it.

When piles of corpses five meters high reached the top of the wall, the zombies suddenly became active.

They began to run at twice the speed as before, forming a wobbly living stairs, crossing over the wall to the other side, launching a full-scale attack.

They focused their attack on five regions, successfully breaking through two of them.

A quick response Mage squad from the British army arrived just in time, eliminating the threat.

Air support also came to clear the affected areas, with thermite grenades deployed across the battlefield.

Unfortunately, this time about forty British soldiers died, and two machine guns with a large amount of ammunition were lost.

The morale of the British soldiers was hit, feeling that the relentless zombie assault would never stop...

The battle continued for another hour.

Soldiers from various countries were exhausted from the endless fighting...

Except for the soldiers from the Shelter!

They were used to this scenario, and the constant influx of system notifications about experience points and upgrades kept them motivated.

Especially those soldiers from Hilania.

Lin Yi changed his impression of these black men.

These black guys were all crazy, every one of them! After four hours of battle, it's like a switch in every Hilania soldier's mind turned on.

They started to enjoy everything happening—the blood, the guts, the slaughter, the experience points!

What truly captivated them was the experience points, after all, killing without rewards is like loveless tides.

But when they received Lin Yi's orders, they obediently switched their system weapons to assault rifles.

At this moment, Melanie anxiously shouted over the radio.

"Boss! It's starting! They're coming!"

"Received. Hubert, tell all the generals, the main force of the zombie army is here. I'm talking about a massive group of mutants and evolved zombies."

"Finally!? Yes, boss!"

Hubert quickly came down from the wall, contacting the commanders of the three armies.

Generals from various countries were both delighted and anxious.

Delighted because it was finally almost over, but anxious because they weren't sure if they could handle it...

They lacked ammunition, reinforcements were slow, and the soldiers were already exhausted...

But undeniably.

Everyone got moving!

New soldiers rotated with the most fatigued ones, allowing them a short rest.

Various types of ammunition boxes were opened.

Many also prepared for potential retreat.

A large number of tanker trucks drove to the wall, but they didn't contain gasoline, they were filled with some kind of acid.

Massive hoses were thrown over the wall, and acid was poured onto the mountains of corpses, filling the moat.

The acid hissed, devouring the undead flesh and the living zombies, leaving only bones...
