Wasteland Commander-Chapter 418 - 109: Hunting Down Ye Fan!

Before the Dawn Army came into contact with the zombies, the footage captured by drones had already been conveyed to every soldier of the Dawn Army.

These zombies were armed.

Despite the soldiers of the Dawn Army being prepared, they suffered unprecedented losses upon contact with the zombies.

These zombies emerging from the darkness seemed like an army from hell.

Not only did they share the same terrifying nature as other wild zombies, but they were also equipped with various weapons.

When they walked into the range of the Dawn Army soldiers, the soldiers also entered their range simultaneously.

The first round of engagement resulted in massive casualties for the Dawn Army.

In the past, when the Dawn Army faced zombies within range, it was almost a one-sided massacre.

But this time, it was a mutual exchange of fire.

The Dawn Army had the advantage of being in a commanding position, with the cover of the embrasures of the city wall, yet casualties were still inevitable.

The shooting accuracy of those zombies, although not as good as that of Three-star Soldiers, was almost on par with ordinary soldiers.

Moreover, the zombies were in large numbers, and when firing densely, bullets flooded in from all directions, making it difficult to miss.

If these embrasures weren’t made of alloy, they could be demolished instantly.

In an instant, countless bullets were poured onto the city wall, and rows of Dawn Army soldiers fell one after another, with casualties exceeding a thousand in moments! 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Heavy machine guns roared on the city wall, receiving thousands of bullets in a second, shattering the metal shields of the machine guns, and subsequently rendering the machine guns and gunners obsolete!

Even those twin high-caliber machine guns were not spared, directly reduced to scrap metal.

Clang clang clang clang clang~~~~!

The entire city wall sparkled as dense bullets rained down like a storm, preventing all the soldiers from lifting their heads.

Even the lookout towers at the height of eighty meters were bombarded similarly, with numerous rockets hitting them, causing the shatterproof glass to fall in pieces, forcing the soldiers to crawl on the ground to avoid the rain of bullets and explosions above.

Meanwhile, the Light Prism Tower, supported by sturdy metal pillars, continued to fire lasers in retaliation, yet these sporadic attacks evidently posed no significant threat to the zombie horde, and sooner or later, the Light Prism Tower was destined to be destroyed.

In an instant, the Dawn Army on the city wall was completely suppressed.

The Mutated Birds took advantage of this opportunity to fly over and drop bombs and acid, continuously causing casualties among the soldiers hiding on the city wall.

The zombie horde below continued to land, with some starting to follow the Mutant Rats, heading east.

At this moment, Ye Fan was still running along the city wall, rapidly advancing meter by meter—it’s now, he didn’t have time to place lookout towers and Light Prism Towers.

He had already placed over seven kilometers, not far from the target of ten kilometers.

Beneath the city wall, the black tide of rats was already catching up with Ye Fan’s pace.

As long as these Mutant Rats bypassed this section of the city wall, the gates to Dawn Island would be open!

It was also at this moment that the Apocalypse Tank battle group arrived.

Ye Fan had deployed a whole thousand Apocalypse Tanks on Dawn Island, the rest were on other battlefields.

These thousand Apocalypse Tanks were all Three-star Tanks, appearing exceedingly colossal and formidable.

Upon entering the battlefield, the tanks formed several horizontal lines.

Facing the advancing Mutant Rats, the Apocalypse Tanks directly chose to fire.

Just like ordinary tanks, the Apocalypse Tanks also had twin machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns.

The machine guns began to roar, unleashing a metal storm.

The Mutant Rats got hit, triggering the explosives on their bodies to erupt immediately.

Thus the effectiveness of the machine guns seemed exceptionally good, causing continuous explosions within the rat horde.

However, the speed of the Mutant Rats was extremely fast, and their movements were agile.

The firing of the Apocalypse Tanks couldn’t cover without any blind spots, with some rats breaking through the machine gun blockade and approaching the tanks.

Boom~~~!

A ball of fire exploded on the tank chassis, it was a Mutant Rat breaking through, directly launching a suicide attack, perishing together with the tank.

But for the Three-star Apocalypse Tanks, the armor was so thick that the rat’s explosion was almost like a scratch.

The Apocalypse Tanks from Red Alert were the kings of land combat; in reality, once upgraded by Ye Fan to Three-star level, they became almost impervious to blades and bullets.

The explosives on the Mutant Rats couldn’t destroy their armor and posed no threat to the personnel inside the tanks.

After several attempts, the Mutant Rats stopped leaping and directly crawled under the tanks.

They aimed to detonate the tank’s metal tracks.

This strategy proved somewhat effective; no matter how powerful the Apocalypse Tank was, the metal tracks were still composed of parts, and couldn’t remain entirely undamaged against explosions.

Soon, many Apocalypse Tanks had their metal tracks blown apart.

Yet these tanks, despite being damaged, did not retreat from the battlefield—they continued to fire and bombard, persisting in the slaughter of the endless mutant rats.

Behind them, multi-purpose infantry vehicles followed up.

Just like they had countless times before, streaks of white light flickered as the metal tracks of the Apocalypse Tanks began to restore quickly.

Once repairs were completed, the Apocalypse Tanks would resume their advancement.

And those mutant rats were equally insane, charging forward fearlessly, sometimes dying under the fire blockade of the Apocalypse Tanks, or in suicidal attacks.

At this moment, it’s as if both sides were playing a game, advancing toward each other like two torrents clashing, where the boundary lines erupted into flames and explosions.

On one side were hundreds of thousands of mutant rats, on the other, a thousand steel beasts and behind them, a thousand multifunction infantry vehicles.

The mutant rats were endless, while the Apocalypse side relied on the healing ability of the multifunction infantry vehicles to withstand the suicide attacks of tens of thousands of rats.

The Apocalypse’s side didn’t escape unscathed either; some mutant rats, after breaking through, chose to attack the multifunction infantry vehicles at the back.

These infantry vehicles didn’t have the formidable defense of the Apocalypse Tanks, and being hit by suicide attacks sometimes resulted in casualties.

Fortunately, there were enough infantry vehicles this time, with engineers inside rapidly repairing them, keeping damages within a manageable range.

But if this drags on, not even tens of thousands of suicidal attacking rats can withstand it.

Luckily, the Apocalypse’s push managed to halt the mutant rats’ advances, buying Ye Fan time to construct the wall.

Ye Fan’s physical stamina was exceptional as he ran ahead, followed by a large group.

With soldiers from the First Field Brigade, Ye Fan quickly set up the wall, and they immediately took defensive positions.

Guard Corps soldiers followed him, ready to shoot at any mutant birds that caught up, protecting the Commander-in-Chief who was setting up the wall.

In the sky, a mass of mutant birds targeted Ye Fan’s side, starting their furious pursuit.

On the ground, people fired their guns, while in the sky, the mutant birds attempted to dive down and bomb Ye Fan.

Ye Fan didn’t even glance back, knowing that as long as there was a Red Alert Soldier around him, no bombs from the sky could hit him.

These soldiers would rather use their flesh to shield against bombs than let the Commander-in-Chief get hurt.

Eight thousand five hundred meters!

Nine thousand meters!

Beside Ye Fan, Tanya’s arms were trembling constantly.

This near Three-star Heroic Unit had her dual pistols smoking from overuse.

In such conditions, Tanya’s advantage was evident; her two rapid-fire pistols could shoot down a dozen mutant birds in mere seconds.

Sometimes she even had a skewer-like effect, shooting down nearly twenty.

There were even two soldiers beside her dedicated to supplying ammunition, ensuring she kept firing.

Next to Tanya, two Three-star Navy Special Forces soldiers were stepping in for her, giving her a breather.

And next to Ye Fan, Yuri floated.

This bald figure was tasked to intervene when the situation started to spiral out of control.

As Ye Fan reached over nine thousand one hundred meters, a loss of control emerged.

Next to Ye Fan, Guard Corps soldiers from five battalions, leaving two battalions to guard the Council building, joined with nearly three battalions, totaling close to two thousand soldiers.

On their way, some soldiers had to temporarily help the First Field Brigade defend the wall, some stayed behind to attract mutant birds, and some died in battle.

Those mutant birds had locked onto Ye Fan, seemingly knowing they must not let him close the wall, hence their fierce pursuit.

Thanks to Tanya and others alternating in defense, shooting at speeds beyond normal humans to help Ye Fan fend them off, allowing him to reach this distance, with many sacrificing themselves to shield him while he built the wall.

But that wasn’t the real crisis yet; as they reached over nine thousand meters, the first crisis hit.

A flock of swifts, at remarkable speed, outpaced the mutant birds, aiming straight for Ye Fan.

Under the bodies of these swifts, acid rain was dripping, causing severe discomfort for those protecting Ye Fan.

Many soldiers had to hold metal shields against the deadly rain falling from above.

Clang, clang, clang, clang~~~!

Tanya fired continuously with both hands, shooting down more than a dozen swifts that got too close, then trembled as she reached for spare bullets, her hands nearly cramping from shooting over seven thousand times!

The swifts seized this moment when Tanya was changing magazines, breaking the blockade of the Navy Special Forces soldiers, and nearly reached above Ye Fan.

That was when Yuri’s body jolted!

An invisible wave, like a stone dropped into a pond, spread outward from the air.

This was Yuri’s special move, Mind Attack, one of Red Alert’s Black Technologies.

The invisible wave spread out two hundred meters before stopping.

Within those two hundred meters, tens of thousands of chasing mutant birds were hit by the wave, bodies trembling, twitching, dying!

Snap, snap, snap!

The mutant birds fell straight down, instantly clearing a swath of space in the sky.

After unleashing this move, sweat poured off Yuri’s bald head.

"I’m done for now, I need half an hour’s rest before I can use this move again, during this time, it’s up to you to protect us."

He couldn’t even float, landing and resorting to running to keep up with Ye Fan’s pace.

Ye Fan still didn’t look up and continued forward.

At this point, he was entering a turning state; only a few hundred meters more, and the wall would form a big encirclement, preventing the war from spreading to other regions of Dawn Island!
