Soon after, Sparrow and his team emerged victorious; Victor's forces were completely wiped out.
Fred led a group to ensure that none of Victor's men had survived and, if any were injured but still alive, to end their suffering swiftly.
He also made sure to collect any usable weapons from the fallen, knowing they could be valuable for the base's future defenses.
Though most of them felt a heavy weight in their hearts, they gritted their teeth and pressed on.
None of them had wanted to kill or be responsible for someone's death, but they knew they had no choice. When cornered, they would fight back, no matter how difficult it felt.
Seeing his men's hearts in the right place, Sparrow nodded in satisfaction.
He could see the resolve etched on their faces as they made their rounds.
Their skirmish, along with the noise of the battle, had attracted a swarm of zombies from within Port City, now shambling toward them.
