Zhang Heng's two shots impacted them somewhat. At least it slowed their advance. They were clearly not used to losing their commanders, and although they were still charging at Zhang Heng, they could not help but slow down.
This was a logical thing for them to do. Although monsters, these were no brainless zombies. They witnessed the way Zhang Heng had massacred their companions. With the bodies of the sacrifices lying beside them, hearing the farmers wailing on the ground, they would naturally worry about their safety.
As for the monsters led by the third sacrifice, Zhang Heng was not too bothered because they were still far away. After firing at his target, he put the rifle back into his backpack and left the two farmhouses.
Zhang Heng did not rendezvous with Fabericotte immediately. Instead, he went around the area to make sure that he had gotten rid of all the monsters behind him before heading off.
