The ships had docked on the island, which appeared to be completely infested with walkers; its population was estimated to be at least six thousand, including tourists.
"Zz... Have the armored vehicles clear the way; don't waste high-caliber ammunition as it's not necessary," Daniel said, observing how this seemingly infected island left him bewildered.
"The people on the yachts likely brought the virus to this island," Travis, serving as a logistics assistant, remarked.
"That's over four thousand people; surely half of them are still alive and hiding in their homes. Tourists may have also been the cause of the infection; who could tell at this point?" Daniel, dressed in military uniform, picked up a radio to mobilize the soldiers.
All soldiers had their basic tactical gear, but Stuart's soldiers wore black tactical gear, and Dominic also wore it because he believed it was much lighter for some reason.
Drones were monitoring the number of walkers in the vicinity and soon discovered that there were people alive in their homes.
"Zz. A horde of walkers is approaching our direction."
Dominic wasn't directly participating in this battle; right now, he was inside an armored truck, watching the drone images transmitted on a computer.
"We have to eliminate them without causing much damage to the surroundings. We should gather all these walkers at a specific point and have a bomber helicopter take care of them," Dominic mentioned quite naturally.
Among the standout pilots was Rafael, who immediately started flying a helicopter to attract the largest horde of walkers.
Considering that attracting walkers was straightforward, Dominic wouldn't expend energy against the horde, even though they could easily eliminate them using firearms.
"Zz... agents in the field, eliminate the scattered walkers."
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The soldiers with modified, quieter weapons began eliminating all the walkers in the vicinity. With a clear shot, there were no errors that could occur because hitting the target was too easy.
At that moment, the helicopter flew over the area and suddenly had a massive crowd of walkers gathered in one increasingly distant place.
Dominic was watching all this through the drone cameras, observing everything attentively, and when he knew they had all the undead in one place, he simply ordered, "It's time to finish them off; concentrate the damage in one direction only."
Stuart took the radio and ordered, "Now, attack with everything you have!"
In an instant, another helicopter flying nearby headed towards where the horde of walkers was, and in one moment, it fired several missiles.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground shook, and in the area where the impact occurred, a cloud of dust rose and spread around.
Dominic, who had confirmed the complete elimination of that horde of walkers, gave the green light for the soldiers to start moving directly.
"Zz... Start moving; everyone should clear out the remaining walkers."
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The walkers, slower than usual, were hidden in alleys or hills away from where the others were, so they had to be eliminated before announcing that the area was safe.
In less than half an hour, it was known that there were no more walkers. The soldiers now began to clear house by house, and surprisingly, there were more civilians than they had imagined.
They were all happy to see how the army took charge of their security; they had all been waiting for the army to come and were glad to know they hadn't been forgotten.
Victor handled the conversations; his patience made him the best to explain the world situation and what was about to be done in this place.
Dominic, on the other hand, was looking at the island; this place had now become his new base, a place where everything would start anew.
"A new beginning..."
