Apocalypse Gacha Chapter 148- The apocalypse is no exception

A person who had never personally battled zombies would never know how terrifying they were.

They might be slow, their bodies might be stiff, and they might have many weaknesses. If you were not afraid of them, you could even play with individuals and stab your knife into their eyes.

But once there was a large group of them, you would see how terrified they were. You don't know where a black decomposing hand would appear to scratch you. You can't say when a leg covered in thick pus would step onto you. You wouldn't know when a mouth with sharp smelly teeth would rip off a piece of your meat.

Moreover, the zombie's terrifying virus would shroud you like dark clouds in the sky.

The most terrifying thing in the apocalypse wasn't the darkness you could see. It wasn't monsters whose evolution levels terrified humans. It was the zombie wave and the beast waves.

Be it humans or monsters, they were as weak as a three-year-old kid in front of those waves.

Mainly when most of the zombies evolved, and their strength increased. They would become a group of death gods. They would wave their black scythes and threaten any race on the planet.

In his last life, Ye Zhongming experienced how terrifying it was. After a few close shaves, he had a phobia towards them. But now he knew that he had to face these monsters if he wanted to get rich and get more.

He sucked in a deep breath and looked at the dozens of meters of zombies; he shouted, "Fire!"

Li Qiang's men and a few base defenders who weren't willing to come here started to fire.

Gunshots rang out in the sky above the base.

Scenes of blood and flesh spilling all over would cause people looking at it for the first time to vomit. Even Park Xiuying and Liang Chuyin, who had followed Ye Zhongming for so long, felt their stomachs churn.

But they knew they would see such things often if they wanted to survive in the apocalypse. So although they felt terrible, they still looked on and waited for their chance to strike.

If not for the chaos last night, then with the organized defense of the base, they could hold on for 10 hours.

But after the chaos, after Ye Zhongming killed Chef Jin and Director Wang, there was no more order in the base. No one was leading, so it was tough to gather people here. Li Qiang only had a hundred men; although they had guns, they didn't have enough ammo, so this couldn't last.

"Stop!"

Ye Zhongming shouted and waved his arm. He tried to let the warriors fighting see him and hear his orders.

It was normal for these people to be unable to maintain a calm heart when facing these zombies, so naturally, they would miss. The zombies were close so that they could keep some accuracy, but the bullets would fly far if they were far away. After killing a bunch of them, Ye Zhongming told them to stop. While saving bullets, it also bought them some room to breathe.

Pulling the trigger seemed easy, but the nervousness would consume large amounts of stamina and energy in an intense fight.

Jia Ming was holding Little Tiger's gun. He fought while learning from Ye Zhongming's actions.

In the space beneath the ruins, the zombies' arms, legs, heads, and blood covered the area. Any average human would feel uncomfortable when they saw such a scene. At least visually, it was like that.

But this couldn't stop the zombies. They didn't care about the deaths of others. What they cared about was tasting fresh blood.

After hundreds of their kind were killed, those still alive continued to charge.

Anyone who saw such a thing would feel a sense of despair.

They couldn't kill them all. That feeling was just so annoying.

"Fight!"

Ye Zhongming ordered again, and the guns fired. Bullets formed a net that scattered into the zombies below the ruins.

The zombies instantly fell like a bunch of wheat.

But this only lasted for dozens of seconds before the gunshots started to thin out. A moment later, the sound of guns disappeared.

They had used up their bullets.

During peacetime, naturally, there wasn't a massive storage of bullets. Even if the base tried to save up, they still spent much of them. Moreover, these people were all haphazardly gathered here, and they brought bullets they could find. After they finished them, there were no more bullets.

"Those who aren't willing to stay to fight the zombies can go. Those willing to say, I promise that you will get an evolution potion if you are still alive."

Ye Zhongming glanced at the hundred people on the ruins and made his promise.

People started to struggle.

Everyone wanted to evolve. Many people were willing to give up many things for an evolution potion. Apart from their lives. If they died, then what was the use?

But this was also the closest many of them got to an evolution potion.

After all, they were promised.

Time paused then, and everyone started an internal fight regarding their destiny.

Many people retreated. They didn't want to die here, but many remained. They were planning to gamble.

Half a minute later, only 30 of them remained on the ruins.

Ye Zhongming pulled out Moon Edge, and his gaze landed on the nearby zombie horde. He was calm, and after sucking in a deep breath, he slashed, leaving a gap in the horde.

"Attack; let's see if we are lucky or not!"

Seeing that person charge into the horde, many others on the ruins roared and followed suit.

When humans were forced into despair, many people would accept their lives, closing their eyes to die. Some would be stunned, closing their minds and waiting for destiny.

Some people would be unwilling to accept. Their hearts would be filled with rage and hope, and they would choose to face it and fight back. Maybe such a battle would end in defeat; maybe others felt like the resistance was stupid. But such qualities allowed humans to survive all sorts of dangers.

No matter the time, courage was the hope of humanity.

The apocalypse was the same.
