Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

When the zombies were could see the soldiers on the wall, it started running instead of walking.

Soon the zombies were within firing range.

"Don't fire yet, wait for them to get a little closer." Yiming issued a command.

After a short moment, Yiming signaled the rifler to tap fire.

All the soldier firing a single round at a time to zombie horde.

Every bullet can be seen going through multiple zombies as the zombies are just so crowded together, even crushing the part of the forest that was suppose to block them.

"MG-42, get ready!" Yiming spoke through the walkies talkie instead as the gun firing sound made it hard to hear.

The zombies were almost within hundred steps to the wall.

"Open Fire! Free Fire!" Yiming ordered.

The MG-42 mounted to the wall started firing on the zombies crowd, almost effectively wiping an several lines of zombies before they could approach.

But soon they had to reload and the firing power stopped.

"Grenades out!" Yiming ordered.

All the soldier threw the grenades perfectly at the front row of the zombies, instantly wiping an entire rows of zombies.

With grenades buying so much times, the MG-42 were finish reloading.

This time Yiming didn't need to order anything as all of them were already firing.

"Yezi how's the logistic?" Yiming walked over and asked.

"We still have plenty in stock, I drafted few hundred people as laborer to carry the equipment to the walls and replenish them.

We also got additional militia member that is ready to rotate out soldiers and militia member that are tired." Yezi replied.

As the two talked, they noticed Xiaoyun was suddenly gone.

Until Yezi found Xiaoyun on an mounted MG-42 firing on the zombies.

The zombies were now in front of the walls as it tried to climb on top of it, but it just made it easier for the soldiers to fire downward and killing multiple zombies at once.

However it made it a little difficult to use the MG-42 as it was mounted to the wall. Still, soldiers pulled out their mp-40 as its was so close that any gun that has a fast fire rate was the only thing needed.

After firing for almost an entire morning to the afternoon nonstop, the zombies were finally reaching to an end as Yezi looked in the binocular and see the end of the zombie horde.

However, several mutant zombies appeared in the distance.

It had a massive belly, almost like a overweight tank mutant without the muscle. All of them were in the distance running at the same time, making the ground shake a little.

Yiming and Yezi suddenly had a bad feeling about the mutant.

"All MG-40 fire on the mutant! Don't let them get close to the wall!"

Oddly, the overweight mutant wasn't resistance to bullet or anything as it instantly died as soon as a bullet hit them in the head.

However, some of the bullets hits their belly, within a second, the entire mutant exploded.

The explosion didn't kill any of the zombies, but the green liquid that splatter on the zombies, made them go into a frenzy.

All of the zombies hit by it were now started running towards the walls almost as if they were using steroids considering how fast it was running.

Soon those zombies were at the wall and even tried to climb over other zombies corpses much faster than the one that weren't hit by the green liquid, almost reaching the top of the wall as it jumped super high.

"Focus the green zombies!" Yezi and Yiming both yelled out.

The soldiers were already focusing on the green zombies before the two issued the order as they were the closest threat.

Just as the soldiers were panicking and dealing with the green zombies, Xiaoyun could see the several tank zombies in the distance.

"Shit! Yiming Yezi, there are several tank mutant in one o'clock direction." Xiaoyun yelled out.

"Yezi is there any more grenades?" Yiming urgently asked.

"No, we already used them all when we had to create space to replace several of the MG-40 from overheating." Yezi replied back.

Xiaoyun heard what Yezi said and gave his MG-40 to another soldiers.

"I'll go deal with those tanks, you guys stay here and continue directing the soldiers." Xiaoyun ran off to the right side of the wall.

"We might need to fall back to the inner wall..." Yezi commented as the zombies were piling up the walls almost like a ladder.

"We are almost finish, its just around ten thousand zombies left. We can't order a retreat now, there will be mass panic if we do that." Yiming refused Yezi's suggestion.

----

When Xiaoyun got to the side where the group of tanks mutant were at, they were just within a hundred step away from the wall.

One of captain saw Xiaoyun running toward his direction, so he ran toward Xiaoyun instead.

"Commander Xiaoyun what should we do? The tank mutant just isn't dying! Our weapon just can't penetrate it. And we don't have any grenades left!" The captain urgently asked.

"I got grenades here." Xiaoyun handed a bag full of grenades.

Xiaoyun couldn't hold it together as the headache made him almost fall face first to the ground

"Thank you sir! A-Are you okay Commander Xiaoyun?"

The captain held Xiaoyun from almost falling down and handed the grenades to other soldiers to pass it on.

"Y-Yeah, I-I'm fine, y-you can go direct the other soldiers... Shit." Xiaoyun walked to the side to lean against the wall and rubbed his temple.

"O-Okay." The captain left and went to direct the soldiers.

Xiaoyun watched as the soldiers were able to work together and using the grenades to wipe the tank mutant before it got ten steps away from the wall.

After a while, Xiaoyun had finally recovered and got back up.

As Xiaoyun watched the zombies horde started to thin out, he went back to where Yezi and Yiming were standing at.

"We are finally done soon... hope there is no more mutant to deal with. That overweight zombie is definitely new." Yezi let out a sigh.

"Yeah... let's call it boomer consider how it exploded. Anyway good thing we didn't have to use the second line of defense." Yiming commented.

"What second line of defense?" Xiaoyun asked as he walked over to the two.

"The inner wall. We were contemplating if we needed to fall back to it." Yiming replied.

"What? But there are still logistical workers on the ground and all the ammo here." Xiaoyun pointed out how impractical that plan would of been.

"Exactly, which is why I didn't issue it." Yiming pointed at Yezi who suggested it.

"Well I'm just preparing for the worst case scenario." Yezi shrugged his shoulder.

The zombies hordes were now only in the thousands as the end was approaching soon, with no mutant in sight so far.

Suddenly, Xiaoyun noticed something reflecting oddly in the sunlight climbing the zombie corpses up the wall. When he really focus his eyes on it, the transparent thing could be seen moving.

"Shit! everyone watch out!" Xiaoyun pulled out his pistol and fired on the transparent mutant.

As the mutant got shot at, it immediately ran toward Xiaoyun in anger.

All the soldiers immediately fired on it and killed it instantly.

"Everyone be careful! This isn't the only one!" Yiming and Yezi realized the potential of this almost invisible mutant zombies.

All the soldiers instantly were on high alert as the invisible zombies almost scared them to death.

Despite the warning, several people were injured and even died from the invisible mutant as they were too focus on firing zombies that were still climbing up the walls.

But as soon as the invisible mutant attack one person, almost every time it immediately get focus on and killed.

---

Just as the time approached Six o'clock, the zombies hordes were finally defeated.

In the end, almost hundred thousands ammo were used, not to mention it wiped the grenade stockpile clean.

With over a hundred soldiers injured mostly from gun overheating or friendly fire when the invisible zombies were up the wall.

Unfortunately twenty soldiers were bitten by invisible zombies. With no cure in hand, the soldier made the decision themselves rather than forcing their comrade to do it.

"I-I..." Xiaoyun heart suddenly dropped as he watches the soldier's bodies being carried down from the wall.

"There's always going to be casualty in wars. Don't be too harsh on yourself." Yiming patted Xiaoyun in the back.

"I'm fine... I just haven't gotten used to it." Xiaoyun shook his head as he thought back to earlier.

"You can go back home if you want, we'll lead the cleanup effort." Yezi suggested.

"No need. I had gotten over it." Xiaoyun's face returned back to normal.

"You sure?" Yezi and Yiming both looked Xiaoyun with suspicion.

"Yeah, everyone die at some point... At least they died defending what they care about." Xiaoyun looked back toward the town.
