Chereads / The King Of Kingdom Kusuma / Chapter 42 - The Return of Jaya City

Chapter 42 - The Return of Jaya City

A monitoring team consisting of dozens of military personnel is now busy checking each of the tunnels and sewers under the city.

Using all-terrain robots, they check from the position of the zombies that are underground

But what they didn't realize was that their detection was too late, in other words, the defence forces on the front line would suffer casualties

And this is a loss, in weak communication due to signal interference problems experienced by everyone on planet Gaya

"Team eagle how is the progress of checking" a radio voice sounded while checking the eagle team was in progress

"Report Commander, still no zombie movement found" the reporting voice from the eagle team captain sounded

"Continue to monitor and immediately report if found"

" Yes Sir"

The same thing happened on many sides of the tunnel as well as the Kota Jaya sewer tunnel, but due to limited personnel this process was slow

Until a monitoring team found an oddity in an underground train tunnel "Captain there was a disturbance experienced by a survey robot, suddenly it overturned and the signal was cut off"

"How is that possible?" said the captain to his subordinates

"We've tried signalling the captain, but still can't get control back" replied the subordinate

"Try downloading the last recording" the captain ordered

"Okay captain, wait a minute...." it wasn't long before they downloaded the latest recording they were able to open

And what surprised them was, the image of the survey robot that was originally running stably suddenly felt shaken

Then the robot flipped over and the signal was cut off shortly, what surprised them was that it wasn't the survey robot that lost the signal

But the image before the robot flips over, showing the long, thin, pale black nails, which are shown in the video image

And when the recording is played at high resolution and slow a scary face with red eyes appears

Seeing this recording the captain and his subordinates stared at each other, there was silence for a few seconds between them

"Captain... I... feel... it's... a zombie"

the voices of his subordinates are heard expressing opinions

"Yes....you're right, then next let me report"

At first, the captain walked slowly before getting faster and ran towards the radio link "Report....report...Commander....this is from the eagle team, reporting zombies has been confirmed..." the voice of the report from the eagle captain sound

And soon the simultaneous reports from other monitoring teams also echoed one by one, looking at the report data from the survey team and staring at the city map.

Cold sweat ran down the commander's back, "Immediately report to the army general that the infantry team has been surrounded...is surrounded...immediately..report...quickly"

Immediately the communication staff reported, and in a command tent of the army, the communication staff rushed to the meeting tent

"General...generally...urgent report from the survey team...." a young staffer sweatily shouted into the tent

where a group of officers are discussing strategy "Calm down report clearly" the general's voice replied

"General report, an urgent report from the survey team, they said that it has been confirmed that zombies are attacking from the ground and their position has now surrounded the infantry" the staff replied quickly.

"Fuck...." shouted to the general

"Immediately make arrangements for the mobile corps team to mobilize their troops and face the zombies in every hole surrounding the infantry... hurry... hurry..." the general's stern command imagined the worst outcome of a zombie siege.

"Insolent, there is a strategist in the zombie team, and this must have been human interference" the general's growl voice sounded

######

Back to the war zone which is now less and less formed due to the next bomb from the air force

Many buildings collapsed and roads were cut off, even more buildings that burned added to the damage to the existing city

But even so, the zombies that had been reduced by more than half still looked numerous and scary

And vaguely the artillery team was preparing to lock the target, "Prepare all ammunition, prepare to rain down on the zombies" the commander shouted to the artillery team members

####

"Captain see the zombies are visible in the binoculars," a soldier said to his team captain on the side

"Where's the look" took the binoculars from his subordinates

And when the team captain saw, he trembled with fear, holding the cold feeling on his back the captain swallowed saliva "Oh my God there are still so many zombies" said as he lowered the binoculars and handed it to his subordinates

Looking to the side the soldier who told him is now trying to smoke a cigarette shakily

Realizing his behaviour the soldier said "Captain...what...do you want...." handed the cigarette to the captain

Picking up wordlessly the captain with trembling hands tried to smoke the cigarette that was taken

Lighted a match to light a cigarette but for some reason it always failed, seeing the captain who looked annoyed the soldier said "here captain let me give you a fire" then lit a cigarette

Inhaling deeply and exhaling a few times the captain seemed to relax a little

Such a scene appeared on many infantrymen's faces as the battering rams became the first to clash with zombies

"Ok everyone gets ready....the zombies have approached the firing zone, get ready" shouted the artillery commander to his subordinates

Soon the commander's voice was heard again "the countdown begins, gunners stand by....5....4.....3....2....1....Fire..."

"Boom..bomb.

bomb…bomb…bomb…bomb…large diameter cannon spewed out bullet projectiles ferociously

And on the battlefield again the ground shaking felt "Bommm....kabommmmmmmm" the sound of bombardment by the Artillery troops continued to echo

The scene looks more real like in a movie presented in front of the eyes of the infantry soldiers

There were cheers as well as curses from the soldiers, trying to release the stress and pressure they were feeling

Soon a sound like thunder resounded in the sky, a rain of bomber rockets began to fall to the ground " Swoshhh...swoshhhh...swohsssss....." this time the spectacular show was even more lively

With an explosion light brighter than a hail of cannon bombs, this state lasts up to 10 minutes until the rocket rain stops

Thick smoke covered the soldiers' vision and the dust mixed with gunpowder felt hot on the nose, wearing gas masks that the infantry soldiers had prepared to face the zombie wave.

Only a minefield now separates them and less than 500 meters of distance between them

The real war is in sight, but what they don't realize is the sharp stab of the zombie's hooves and fangs lurking behind them.

Again the number of zombies decreased and it continued until finally the bombing finished and the front of this explosion was

The zombie army that was half-bodied and burned still refused to give up moving, and behind the entire team of zombies appeared

The zombie king with purple skin resembled a human, but on closer inspection, there was a gaping wound on half of his face and one of his arms appeared to be severed from being hit by explosions from artillery and rocket bombardment.
