The atmosphere quickly grew tense. Even the formidable members of the War God Squad felt a shiver run down their spines at the sight of the endless horde of Zombies. Although they carried powerful weapons, those High-Level Combat Power Zombies were not mere wooden stakes for the Mercenaries to slaughter at will.
To expedite the arrival of the Nile Expedition Army, Lin Yi not only utilized the Sky Giant Transporter he had originally rented but also directly rented two additional Transmitters to transport the fully armed force of fifteen thousand troops from the rear.
Despite the War God Squad's impressive combat strength, Lin Yi did not want them to suffer too many casualties. He prudently decided to wait until the fifteen thousand troops arrived before taking action.
As the night breeze swept through, the world became eerily still. Even the Zombies, usually accustomed to howling, fell into an uncanny silence. Occasionally, a gentle breeze would carry their low growls into the camp. It was at this moment that everyone truly felt the gravity of their situation.
The night passed without a word. Everyone knew that a great battle was imminent and had no mood for conversation. Even within Lin Yi and Li Qiweng's shared tent, silence reigned.
...
Just as the Rising Sun peeked over the horizon, Lin Yi suddenly felt a wave of oppression wash over him. He immediately unleashed his Psychic Power and discovered that there were already people everywhere outside.
Lin Yi quickly realized that the Beauty who had been by his side was now missing. In an instant, a figure flashed past inside the tent, and the entrance flap was lifted. When he looked again, Lin Yi was already standing outside.
"What’s going on?" The blinding sunlight pierced Lin Yi's eyes, prompting him to shield them with his hand.
"Commander! Fifteen thousand soldiers have arrived!" Just as Lin Yi finished speaking, a man's voice rang out.
"Ibn?" At that moment, Lin Yi recognized that the person standing before him was indeed Ibn, who served as the deputy Commander for this operation. However, he appeared quite submissive now; it seemed Wu Hao had done quite a bit of work.
"Captain! David has also successfully completed his mission!" A youthful voice chimed in—it was David, who had just turned ten and had been responsible for "protecting" Ibn.
Lin Yi ruffled David's curly black hair and gestured for him to step aside.
"Ibn, how is the firepower of these soldiers?" Lin Yi glanced around and noticed that several armored vehicles had also been transported here. There must be some valuable equipment inside.
Sure enough, Ibn grinned and signaled a soldier to open one of the armored vehicles. A human-sized metallic frame came into view before Lin Yi's eyes.
The unique texture of metal gleamed under the sunlight, exuding a heavy sense of pressure. This was something Lin Yi was all too familiar with. He shouted out loud: "Mechanical Armor!"
"Yes. This is the new type of Mechanical Armor jointly developed by the African Union. Although its size appears to have decreased significantly, its firepower has been enhanced. Of course, it still cannot compare to the War God Suit, as such advanced technology is only in the hands of a select few." Ibn gestured for the nearby soldiers to don the Mechanical Armor.
This improved Mechanical Armor was far more advanced than what Lin Yi had seen previously in the Defense Zone of Addis Ababa; it was merely a head taller than an average person.
Moreover, the automation had greatly improved. The soldiers hardly exerted any effort as the Mechanical Armor autonomously covered them through high-precision sensors. However, this armor primarily protected critical areas such as the chest, neck, and head, while other parts were mostly supported by metal frameworks. The weapons attached to it were notably more sophisticated. The long blade on its back appeared to have undergone multiple forgeings, displaying a ripple pattern reminiscent of water, exuding a chilling metallic aura from afar.
The arms also featured miniature missile launchers similar to those on the War God Suit, and there was a laser firing port atop its head! This time, there were no heavy rotating machine guns; while such weapons possessed immense firepower, they indeed occupied considerable space and power within the Mechanical Armor.
The recent improvements clearly focused on mobility and flexibility, as the designers understood that the formidable Zombies posed the greatest threat. While ordinary Zombies were numerous, they became mere targets under human weaponry.
In just a few blinks, the soldiers had donned a full set of Mechanical Armor, transforming from ordinary soldiers into humanoid combat machines.
"There are only two thousand sets available; after all, they have just been successfully developed!" Ibn said with some regret. This mechanical suit could elevate an ordinary soldier's combat capability to that of a Star Level warrior, but due to resource scarcity, they could only possess this limited number.
"That's about right. The War God Squad will be the first attack unit, and the Mechanical Armor Squad will be the second attack unit; everyone else will mainly focus on defense!" Lin Yi immediately formulated a plan in his mind: the strongest squad would create an opening while others provided support for the attack.
Wu Hao's follow-up troops would need at least another hour to arrive, and Lin Yi could not afford to wait any longer. He decided to commence the attack promptly at eight o'clock. Lin Yi had slept soundly until dawn, completely unaware of the Giant Transporter and Transmitter flying overhead; it was evident how deeply he had slept.
Now Lin Yi sensed that his strength had subtly increased after yesterday's battle. He attributed this enhancement to two factors: continuous fighting and Lulu's replenishment of dark energy.
The repairs on Black were nearly complete; however, its Intelligent System had degraded to a level worse than that of an ordinary War God Suit and would require some time to recover. Nevertheless, Black had become Lin Yi's close ally, so he decided to fight wearing the War God Suit!
Once everything was ready, Lin Yi stood at the front of the formation. Facing over ten thousand people before him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion; this journey had truly been challenging.
"War God Squad!" Lin Yi shouted at the members of the War God Squad.
"Invincible in battle!" The members of War God Squad responded in unison with remarkable synergy.
"Expeditionary Force!" Lin Yi raised his head slightly and scanned everyone with his gaze.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The thunderous battle cry echoed across the land, igniting the passion within everyone at that moment. Below them lay a battlefield where they would unleash their boundless ambition through a brutal clash of iron and blood.
"Let’s go!" Lin Yi turned with a flourish, and everyone straightened their bodies, their gazes resolutely fixed on the distance.
At that moment, roars erupted from afar. Although Lin Yi had exceptional eyesight, he could only make out a mass of Zombies beginning to surge wildly from such a distance; the siege had already commenced.
"War God Squad, advance!"
"Mechanical Armor Squad, rapidly follow up!"
"Armored Convoy, hold the rear!"
Lin Yi quickly assigned tasks and led the War God Squad forward. However, they couldn't move too fast; after all, the others wouldn't be able to keep up with the War God Squad's speed.
"Roar!" The distant Zombie Army seemed to have noticed this unexpected group and sent a wave of Zombies charging towards Lin Yi.
Through the drone's surveillance, Lin Yi had already detected the Zombies' movements. He was calculating how to fight this battle to minimize losses as much as possible.
Just then, he suddenly sensed several powerful presences approaching. This kind of threat could only come from true Nine-Star Level beings; no other level of Zombie would have gone unnoticed.
Nevertheless, Lin Yi gritted his teeth and pressed forward. He knew that there would be Super Experts with Nine-Star Combat Power on his side; otherwise, allowing the enemy's High-Level Combat Power to slaughter humanity would spell doom for human society.
Sure enough, as the powerful aura of the Zombies radiated outward, several formidable presences on their side erupted into being.
Ordinary people couldn't perceive this overwhelming aura, but for Lin Yi, who was on the verge of stepping into Nine-Star Level, the oppressive force was unmistakable.
Boom! Suddenly, a series of muffled sounds reverberated through the air, like drumsticks striking a massive drumhead. Though not loud, the penetrating power made everyone feel as if the air had tightened around them, making it nearly impossible to breathe.
At that moment, Lin Yi's Psychic Power was highly concentrated. He once again felt the formidable nature of Nine-Star Combat Power; this force was truly devastating.
The battle was about to erupt; even the peak combat power of Nine-Star Level was set to clash. Naturally, Lin Yi and his team could not escape such a fate.
In a battle of Nine-Star Level, only those of the same rank or individuals like Lin Yi, who possess an abnormally strong Psychic Power, can witness the unfolding combat.
Within Lin Yi's mental perception, the fighters at Nine-Star Combat Power engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat, occasionally launching their Bestow Unique Abilities to strike at their opponents. It was truly difficult to determine who was stronger or weaker at a glance.
Suddenly, Lin Yi sensed several powerful auras rapidly approaching. According to his analysis, they were no less than Eight-Star Level combatants.
"Brothers, the battle has begun! Everyone, stay alert and give it your all!" Lin Yi shouted, immediately darting forward with great speed.
Li Qiweng followed closely behind, while Sean and Roman matched their pace, rushing into the fray. They faced ten Eight-Star Combat Power Zombies, and no one dared to show any signs of carelessness!
"First team, come with me!" Witerson II shouted as he charged ahead.
"Second team, wipe out these damned Zombies!" Pachy declared fiercely, his blade flashing wildly in his hands.
...
"Nick, we can't lag behind!" Renesmee called out sharply as she led her team into the battle.
A massive-scale conflict was about to erupt!
