On the battlefield.
Lin Yi frowned, watching everything.
The defense was in trouble.
Ammunition was running low again...
According to Sylvie, Ludwig, the attendant number 12 aka the White Kirin, was dead tired.
The red-haired girl asked the boss if she could give this poor guy a couple of level-2 Energy Cores.
Lin Yi agreed, as they were in urgent need of ammunition, but he ordered a maximum of only two for him.
The soldiers continued to upgrade.
Especially the Archers.
Whenever a soldier reached level 10, the defense became slightly easier.
Equally important, the number of enemies began to decrease, and even some zombies decided to retreat, followed by more zombies...
But many zombies remained.
The Shelter Army's machine gun bullets were running out, and the Crossbow and Black Powder Gun ammunition had long exhausted...
The Hilania people's explosives also were completely depleted...
The warriors were exhausted too; if not for the Magical Spring Water supporting them, they would have long been dead from exhaustion.
[Congratulations!]
[You have reached Level 13 and received a reward: 2 Attribute Points!]
"...Just let me die..."
Lin Yi lay sprawled on the ground.
The past hour was nothing but Purgatory.
Many people were injured, over twenty Sun Soldiers lost their lives, and the battlefield looked like it had been trampled and then ravaged by three Godzillas...
About an hour ago, a group of strong zombies simultaneously attacked the wall, causing it to start shaking and crumbling.
Some of them even started throwing corpses and anything heavy they could find, including rocks, logs, and other mutants...
But Lin Yi would never retreat!
Because the rewards had already started fading away!
The mages were running out of Magic Power, even Piero and his partner Joe couldn't hold on...
They used everything they could, including Steel Wall, Anti-tank Hedgehog, scrapped cars, and even intact cars!
Lin Yi threw an armored war vehicle that was damaged in a battle on the island from ten meters high towards the enemy.
Even Siri's beetles joined the battle.
And the Elves, flying over the battlefield, threw ceramic pots filled with Burning Agent...
This was extremely difficult for them because the pots were too heavy, and they couldn't fly with them alone, so two had to jointly carry one pot.
Solomon performed exceptionally well this time, and Dante crafted a custom modular Level 3 axe for him, heavier but worth it.
He first transformed into a stone man and then activated the Giant Skills, this four-meter-tall stone giant wielding a three-meter-long axe was like a zombie-crushing machine.
He often killed with a single strike, chopping armored monsters to pieces, while the little minions couldn't even scratch his fur.
The infantrymen were true heroes.
A soldier, covered in wounds, even used up an entire Vaccine Bracelet, yet continued fighting...
Another Hilania person with level-2 Kuagaru Transformation Skills was equally fearless.
But his level-2 skills could only protect him against level-2 viruses, while the enemies were level-3...
Lin Yi didn't mind using a Resurrection Vaccine for such a selfless soldier.
Da Chuan Dragon was badly beaten!
He used his body to protect a squad of soldiers from a horde of zombies that breached the walls.
Even Lin Yi was almost out of strength, he activated the Combat Reflex Skills, wielding his sword with both hands, weaving through the zombies, slicing one head after another.
Mutants, regular zombies, and even strong zombies were no match.
"Boss... get up... we need more manpower! There is a ton of loot here!"
"...Can't you just let a man... die quietly?"
Lin Yi muttered to himself as he stood up.
All the zombies that didn't retreat had been killed, so the battlefield was relatively safe.
The Beastmen guarded the perimeter, humans and elves, and all the soldiers collected the loot.
But the rewards were disappearing!
Lin Yi thought for a moment and waved his hand.
Everyone in the Shelter who could be deployed was transported to the battlefield.
Some people were terrified! Here, the missile and artillery attacks burst the zombies apart.
Severed heads and limbs were the most "normal" scenes these people witnessed.
Those who couldn't handle it were sent back to the Shelter.
While the others obediently collected the loot.
The corpses were thrown into pits, and the rewards and coins were placed in a special clearing...
Helicopters flew back, hovered for a while over the battlefield, but finding no targets, flew over the forest.
Shortly after, a small team of Americans appeared.
After fifteen minutes of searching.
The Americans finally found Lin Yi.
He had set up a huge tent on the battlefield.
He was lying on a large bed, with an extremely beautiful woman giving him a massage.
On the table next to him, it was filled with delicious-looking food and a ceramic vat of wine.
Seeing the visitors arrive, Lin Yi said, "Chen Youyou feels much better."
"Last night, I..."
The girl blushed, trying to say something but Lin Yi interrupted her.
"The soundproofing is really good!"
"Hmm..."
Chen Youyou nodded shyly and smiled.
After Lin Yi sent Chen Youyou back to the Shelter, he lazily watched, his guest was watching him.
"You'd better act quickly, those rewards are disappearing!"
"Rewards? Hmm... I haven't received any orders on this matter yet."
A bald officer around forty years old answered, looking very tired.
"Our aircraft reported that the zombies have left and are no longer a threat. My squad was sent to investigate, sorry for the disturbance."
"Some mutated entities and evolved zombies retreated, but most have died."
Lin Yi was half-naked, yawning.
His body wasn't particularly tired, but mentally he was exhausted.
The bald officer asked incredulously, "Excuse me... are you trying to tell me you've wiped out the entire zombie horde?"
"Yes, including that Zombie General. You can ask your men, I don't mind collecting the zombie corpses if you don't need them. I can even help gather them before the rewards disappear... just give me a share."
"I, um... I'll contact my superiors and let you know as soon as I get their response."
The confused officer replied.
Lin Yi simply nodded, poured himself another drink, and sat down by the table.
This American was drooling over the food, which smelled delicious...
But he was just a regular officer, dreaming of eating such meals was beyond him.
At this time, those on the battlefield weren't doing so well.
The ground was littered with craters, and some rewards were buried in the soil.
With no choice, everyone decided to only dig half a meter of the surface soil in the severely damaged area.
The Shelter's reward collection team also cleared some rewards in the part of the battlefield managed by the Irish.
After all, Lin Yi had helped them a few times.
But overall, the rewards in the first and second zones were much less, and the few rewards were concentrated near the city walls.
The three allied nations preferred vehicles and firearms.
Except for the Irish, who placed all their hopes on their Professionals.
The British had few Professionals, especially Advanced ones.
They cleared the British Isles with military forces, and afterward, there were no zombies available for upgrades...
They only recently arrived on the European Continent and hadn't had time to train their Professionals before the conflict with Lille occurred...
Defenses have been dismantled, Steel Walls transported back to the Shelter, hedgehog-shaped barriers were disassembled, and the scrap metal thrown at zombies was also sent back to the warehouse.
Lin Yi didn't touch the Americans' cannons, flamethrowers, or other properties.
He was greedy, but not a thief!
After a while, the bald officer returned.
He told Lin Yi that his superiors invited him to return to headquarters to discuss the results of the battle.
Lin Yi couldn't leave until he'd collected all the spoils, no one could supervise otherwise.
Moreover, the Irish and the British had accepted his proposal to assist with gathering the spoils.
The people from both countries were busy dealing with the city's damage and couldn't allocate manpower to return to the city walls.
Also, the area they managed might not have that many rewards left.
What puzzled Lin Yi was that both nations said they needed zombie corpses... but didn't give a reason...
Collecting spoils was difficult without processing corpses, but for that ten percent commission, the Shelter's collection team worked diligently.
Especially those Beastman Warriors, Lin Yi prepared to give each an extra reward of a rabbit and a chicken.
It wasn't until after dark that the collection work was completed.
Lin Yi sent his people back to the Shelter.
Escorted to headquarters by the American officer.
Brussels looked like a mess.
A large part of the city was burned to the ground, and another part was destroyed.
The headquarters also suffered some damage.
There were signs of battle everywhere, but the zombies hadn't breached the final line of defense. This was mainly because Lin Yi killed that Zombie General.
Upon arrival at headquarters.
Three people were already there.
There were generals from the United Kingdom and the United States.
And a new face, a black-haired man dressed in System Armor.
Jack Harris, friendly, smiled as he extended his hand to the potato merchant.
"Glad you're okay, Lin Yi..."
He was very pleased with the victory in this war!
There were several moments when he almost gave up hope, but this miraculous Easterner always managed to create miracles in desperate times.
Lin Yi shook hands with the General.
Everyone present looked exhausted, especially Harris, who seemed five years older.
"The commander of the mountain monster squad died in this battle, so I'd like you to meet..."
"Oh, right, I forgot about him." Lin Yi interrupted the American.
With a wave of his hand, the red-haired Viking savage appeared in the room.
He was dressed in civilian clothes, sitting in a wheelchair.
"Hi."
The Irishman smiled painfully, barely able to lift his right hand.
With another wave, Lin Yi made the Viking's Level 3 Armor and accessories appear on the table.
"We found him while fighting the zombies in the city... By the way, I'll need to charge you for a Resurrection Vaccine and a Severe Injury Healing Needle...
His body is overexhausted, so he'll need a few days to recover, as for his equipment..."
