Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: Advance

" Ack- "

*slash*

The zombies are marching forward.

Adam who is secretely eliminating some of them using his dagger by triggering his phantom state on and off had been following the zombie tide since morning.

" This is not looking good. Seems like Pandora really is in trouble. "

A few kilometers, Adam can already see a towering wall and he know that the place behind the wall should be the Pandora Base under the Army.

Thankfully, the zombie tide is marching slowly. It seems that the Pandora will not be engaging in a frontal battle for a couple of hours.

' The strongest in this tide must be that wolf zombie. It's only a tier 4 intermediate but even me would find it hard to contend against it. '

Adam then retreated as he finished scouting.

He is not crazy enough to start an all out fight with thousands of zombies.

He needs the whole team to do this.

Even if Adam is not the strongest in this world, he know that with Arthus and Jaya, dealing with this zombie tide will not be a problem.

Though it might take long due to the number but eventually with Arthus, Jaya, and his other summons, they can eventually clean up all this zombies.

" I'll better return first. Tsk. Before even joining a base I already need to do so much. "

" Anyway, you people are so lucky. "

Adam already know the strongest in the base.

She is the base chief and a tier 4 powerhouse named Rhea, along with 4 other tier 4 people.

They may be in the same ranks but Adam know that with his abilities alone, he can clean up a zombie tide only as big as this.

As for the tier 4 of the base, he doubt they can stop this tide by themselves.

As far as what Gil said, the only tier 4 who can basically eliminated multiple moves are the base chief and the archer.

But still it's not enough considering that they still need energy to continue using their abilities.

Actually Adam had known a very important information from Gil.

He was able to know that the amount of energy a tier 4 normally have can only last them for 2 hours of continuous fighting. This is considering that an ability person goes all out.

" Okay, time to go. "

Adam, in his phantom state immediately ran back to the south direction where his team is.

To help the base, he even eliminated some tier 3 zombies already, especially those wierd looking ones with sharp claws and hulk like body.

As for tier 4, he didn't dare yet for there are many zombies around.

If alone, he may be overwhelmed. So it's better to have a better approach than a reckless action.

After running for several minutes in an unimaginable speed of a tier 4 evolutionary, Adam safely returned.

" How is it boss? " Gil immediately ask when he saw Adam returned.

" There are alot ahead, probably less or more than 200,000. "

" D*mn! "

" Don't worry, these number doesnt pose too much threat to our team. "

Adam already have a good grasp of the team's power.

Arthus and Jaya alone are inexhaustible killing machine.

Arthus is unquestionable but Jaya is also cannot be underestimated. From the description, Jaya still had her demonic maid form and can become a tier 4 demonic maid.

What is a tier 4 demonic maid?

Simple, she is only slightly weaker than Arthus!

Imagine that!

He have two Arthus level powerhouse.

...

2 hours earlier.

The higher ups of Pandora Base are still standing on the iron wall looking out for the zombie tide.

From outside, they can see a stretch of plain land as they had removed all the buildings and obstacle to have a clear view of incoming danger.

And from where they are standing they can already see a black clusters of zombies approaching slowly.

" Base Chief! The reinforcements had arrived. "

A man ran towards the Chief and reported.

Hearing the news, the others are estatic.

Good news!

With the army's support, they might actually be able to defend against the zombie tides.

Then from where the man who reported came from, a group of people wearing camouflage suits approached.

Then a man aging in his mid thirties saluted and said,

" Base Chief Rhea, I am Major General Christopher, we are the people sent by the army to support you. "

" 20 tier 3 evolutionary, 10 tier 4 awakened and one tier 5 awakened. "

Tier 5 awakened!

The army actually sent a tier 5 awakened.

There is hope!

Even in the main base of the army, a tier 5 awakeneds are very scarce. They actually only 10 but they are willing to send one to support Pandora.

In the army, all tier 5 are already awarded with the ranks of at least Major General.

So to say, the man in front of them is someone with higher standing than them in the power system.

But as expected of someone from the Army, he is not swayed by position and is committed to serving the public.

" Thank you for coming Major General. Pandora is really thankful for having you help us solve this crisis. " Base Chief Rhea said smiling.

Rhea is a beautiful mature woman in his early thirties.

With her hot figure and beauty, it's impissible that men would not be swayed by her.

And Major General Christopher doesn't seem to be an exception to it.

" It's my pleasure to help your base resist. "

After saying this, Major General Christopher immediately push aside his feelings and went back to dealing with the zombie tide.

" We were briefed by our superior about the intensity of the attack.

There are 200,000 zombies more or less and the strongest is a tier 4 intermediate zombie wolf. "

" With our strength, dealing with the zombie wolf will be possible but the problems lies on the multiple numbers of tier 3 and 4 zombies around. "

Earlier, the report scouted by the overseer was finalized. The number of tier 4 zombies are 27 and are mostly hunters numbering 16, 9 tanks and 1 commander and the menace zombie wolf.

" To disrupt the zombie tide, we must eliminate first the zombie commander, but approaching it is hard. " Grandpa Sam interjected.

The zombie commander had an average combat power but it is well protected.

" We have an assassin type awakened, we will make an opportunity for him to assassinate the commander and we'll proceed to eliminate the zombie wolf.

With the two gone, we can slowly finish the remainig zombies. " Major General Christopher said to the people around.

They currently have 15 tier 4 awakened and a tier 5 awakened. Each would have no problem dealing with thousands of zombies. If they can eliminate the zombies that posses the greatest threat, they can win using a drawn out battle.

" Pandora Base will follow the Major General's arrangement. " Base Chief Rhea said.

" Good. "

The two parties were busy discussing from the remaining hours before the battle then suddenly the young man with spectacles came running towards them. This young man is the ' Overseer '.

" Report! Unidentified creatures are hovering above the zombie tide! "

Everyone were clueless by the report.

What unidentified creatures?

" What do you mean? What unidentified creature?! "

" I don't know too! But all of them are tier 3! "

Tier 3.

This is a headache. They already have their hands full with all the zombies already present. But now, another unidentified creatures are present. Is it a new type of zombies?

" It's wierd but all of their life signals indicates color black but I'm sure that they are alive. "

An overseer can identify zombies and humans according to life signals. Zombie are red and humans are green. They act like sattelite images in his mind and this is his first time since he awakened that he saw a black life signals.

" Wait! I'm seeing human life signals entering my field! "

Seven humans.

There are people present on the back of the zombie tide.

" How many black creatures are there? " Rhea urgently asked the panicking overseer.

Ten?

Twenty?

If it's only few, they might still be able to cope up with it.

" T-two hundreds. "

Two hundreds!

Hearing the number, everyone become desperate.

200 tier 3.

The original tier 3 zombies are only 40 at most and now another 200 appear.

Even for tier 4 awakened, dealing with tier 3s are still dangerous.

As everyone was in a dilemma because of the news, the overseer suddenly saw on his vision something that he would never forget.

An energy so intense was being emitted by a hundred of those black creatures and the life signals just seem very threatening in his eyes.

Then....

* Boom! *

* Boom! *

* Boom! *

Everyone immediately look towards where the explosion happened.

Then they saw the zombies being blown up from the explosions.

It was like a hundred grenade was thrown altogether.

Only, this grenade seemed to be more powerful.

Even from where they are standing, they can see the damage caused by the explosion.

With the densely packed zombies, more than a thousand were eliminated in a flash!

Th-this?!

" This explosion was what happened yesterday! "

" Those creature are exploding! " the overseer said.

The black entities are exploding on the zombie tide.

What's the situation?

Can someone please explain?!

On Adam's side...

" [ Summon: Ancient Devil Bug ].... explode! "

Another round of explosions occur bringing him thousands of experience.

Then finally...

Progress: Tier 3 intermediate [ buffed ( tier 4 intermediate ) ] 100000/100000.

Ding!

" Congratulation host for reaching the condition. Initiating level up...

Progress: Tier 3 advance [ buffed ( tier 4 advance ) ] 5/100000. "

Finally advanced a small tier! Hahaha.
