Apocalypse Gachapon
Chapter 916: Ying City visitors

Troops beneath your walls.

Many were familiar with this phrase, but only a few had personally experienced and understood it during peacetime.

But such things were becoming more common in the apocalypse.

Whether it was humans or mutated lifeforms who were beneath the walls.

So when the mutated lifeform army attacked, even if the humans had defended for many days, they were still slightly stunned.

Before firearms were invented, this was probably how wars were fought.

As for battles that could involve so many people, there would only be several in history, and each of them decided the fate of a country.

Now, was it the battle between humans and mutated lifeforms?

That thought rose in the heads of many people.

Their next thought was that those mutated lifeforms didn’t use all their strength at all!

The previous few days were indeed very intense. The battle seemed to have reached its most crucial point at the most dangerous moment.

Everyone thought that it was their sharpest attack. Their endless attacks from day to night made it hard to hold on.

But as compared to this, that was far weaker.

Although all their members had previously attacked, they didn’t use any tactics. They relied on the bloodthirst and frenzy of the mutated lifeforms.

The humans fought for every inch of the wall and could barely hold on with the help of various weapons.

But right at the start of this battle, everyone felt differently.

As for what it was, it could be answered in a few words.

Layers! Coordination!

The mutated lifeforms stopped attacking based on instinct. The high-level lifeforms organized them and used a human-like way to attack.

How did humans attack?

They used their strengths.

So did the mutated lifeforms. Those stronger ones with higher defense were at the front, and the ranged were at the back. Other lifeforms were in the middle. These three layers were further split. For example, your exact range would decide where you were in the ranged layer. They didn’t fire randomly and agreed to listen to orders to ensure that they put pressure on the city walls.

Moreover, it was obvious that they split into various types. Although there weren’t any air forces, each type had a clear role. Some to knock the walls, some to hit the gates, some to dig, some to spit fire, some to spit mist…

Each lifeform’s unique point was being used. The entire battlefield looked like it was in a chaotic war, but if you look closely, you will see that it wasn’t chaotic.

On this point alone, they might be even stronger than humans.

The squad that exited the city used the gap that the level eight lifeform was killed to control Yellow Ball’s statue and sent it back.

The mutated lifeform army hadn’t been fully mobilized previously, and the humans exited the city and were able to fight based on their high morale. But when the mutated lifeform army attacked, their numbers disadvantages were shown. If they didn’t retreat, they would be surrounded and wiped.

The humans on the walls were covering for them. Hong Xiang, who was in charge of defending the hole that Ye Zhongming created, decided to take a risk. He abandoned those Posthumous people warriors who headed out and ordered people to seal the hole.

The city wasn’t calm either. Some lifeform had drilled several tunnels to get under the wall. Many mutated lifeforms surged, and Cloud Peak was in a battle.

What caught them off guard even more were some plants. They could silently grow on the walls; even the blocked holes had some mutated plants in them. But the metal and stone used to block the hole were actually being eroded quickly.

Even with so many Posthumous people’s help, Cloud Peak was still back to being on the verge of collapsing.

Ye Zhongming ignored all of that. He retreated from the walls after seeing Guang Yao’s team risk their lives to get Yellow Ball’s statue back. It wasn’t that he was avoiding the fight; he was trying to recover some stamina.

In the command center that Xia Lei set up, the injured Ye Zhongming, Liang Chuyin, Xia Bai, Guang Yao, etc were here. The defense was left to Mo Ye.

Ye Zhongming had several low-level crystals around him. He was using advanced meditation to recover mental energy.

He used the brain bug and had the highest level of Soul Refining Technique. Even with all his mental energy sucked dry, with the help of the skill, he needed just two days of rest to fill it back up.

But time waited for no one, and he could only use these low-level crystals to speed up the process. He had recovered 10% of his energy in such a short while.

“Ah Gui, when can my bullet be completed?”

Beside Ye Zhongming was one of Le Dayuan’s helpers, a person with the Military Carver job.

He used the Energy Splitter he got from the wheel to create a batch of bullets, giving rise to the crystal machine gun.

These dual-propelled things were theories and ideas that Ye Zhongming had heard of in his past life; he had never seen anyone succeed.

But in this life, that item was placed in front of him. All of that had to do with Ah Gui.

He created the golden bullet using five silver bullets from Ye Zhongming. He carved the crystal energy onto them, and Ye Zhongming used strength and fertile soil to merge them into a golden bullet. It also had the Freeze ability, which was how he instantly killed a level eight monster.

Now, there was a level eight presence outside of the city, and it should be the most important commander. Just look at how sharp their attacks were; you should know that the monster was smart. Its body wasn’t big, but it was very intelligent.

If the humans wanted to win, they had to kill it.

But such a lifeform would care about protecting itself. The three-nose elephant stood afar, and many high-level lifeforms protected it. It never stood in danger. The only idea Ye Zhongming could think of was a golden bullet.
