"Don’t worry, it’s fine. There’s no way they can lure all two million Zombies over in one go."

"Besides, as long as you get my mobile turret set up, it won’t matter even if they lure all two million Zombies here," Lin Xinghai said with considerable confidence.

He no longer considered ordinary Zombies a threat. After all, with Time Acceleration and enough ammunition, he could even kill all two million Zombies by himself.

Of course, the better the weapon, the faster his kill rate would be.

Little Fatty immediately chimed in, "Boss, don’t you worry. I specially invited several retired engineers to design this custom mobile turret for you. It’s been tested repeatedly and definitely won’t let you down."

This so-called mobile turret was, in essence, a gunnery platform.

The platform could rotate a full 360 degrees with no blind spots. Mounted on top were two modified Heavy Machine Guns, and the bottom could connect directly to the ammo belt containers below.

The ammo belts they used had a modular design, meaning they could theoretically be extended indefinitely. This met Lin Xinghai’s requirement of being able to fire continuously without wasting time to reload.

But of course, that alone wasn’t enough. It was called a mobile turret for a reason—it could move.

For defending a fixed position like this, a temporary rail could be installed around the rooftop, allowing the mobile turret to traverse quickly and achieve a true 360-degree field of fire with no blind spots.

Furthermore, Little Fatty had someone completely overhaul the two Heavy Machine Guns on the mobile turret. Their rate of fire was significantly faster than standard Heavy Machine Guns, reaching up to 2,500 rounds per minute.

It wasn’t that the rate of fire couldn’t be modified to be even faster, but this was the absolute limit of what Lin Xinghai’s body could precisely control.

With two guns in hand, he could fire 5,000 rounds a minute. At that rate, he could essentially kill 10,000 Zombies in two minutes.

And if he used his Time Acceleration Ability to speed up the entire gunnery platform by ten times, he could even kill 100,000 Zombies in two minutes.

This was the source of Lin Xinghai’s confidence in facing two million Zombies.

After confirming that Lin Xinghai was fine, Little Fatty was no longer anxious. He threw himself into directing the Combat Robots to set up the fortifications with even more vigor.

Time ticked by, second by second. Lin Xinghai quietly watched the status of the four squads.

All four squads now had veteran members, so they were old hands when it came to luring Zombies.

They controlled the speed of their vehicles, wounded the Zombies to enrage them into chasing the Armored Vehicles, and the scent of blood would naturally attract even more Zombies.

Once the horde reached a certain size, it would naturally trigger a full-blown zombie tide.

If everything went smoothly, the four squads would arrive at the shopping mall simultaneously in half an hour.

According to the Central computer’s current simulations, the number of Zombies they brought back could exceed one million.

"Looks like they’re all giving it their all! Luring so many Zombies at once... but that’s good. It saves us the trouble of having to go out and attract the rest of them later," Lin Xinghai chuckled as he watched the real-time information on the screen.

The moment he finished speaking, one of the squad icons on the digital map instantly turned red, indicating they had sent a distress signal.

Seeing this, Lin Xinghai immediately rushed downstairs while using his system privileges to sync Squad 2’s data to the Rare Level Mecha.

In less than two seconds, the Rare Level Mecha, which had been on standby, burst out of the shopping mall and vanished around a street corner in the blink of an eye.

...

Elsewhere, sweat dripped slowly from Yan Feijie’s forehead. He never would have imagined that, just when everything was going smoothly, they would suddenly run into Mutated Zombies—three of them at once.

They were a Death Claw, a Spitter, and a Hunter.

By the time they appeared, they were already in a frenzied state, charging toward the Armored Vehicle at extreme speed.

The Hunter was especially terrifying. Its Speed doubled after entering its frenzied state. When the squad first spotted it on the edge of the zombie radar, it was still far away. But just a few breaths later, it had crossed a huge distance. At this rate, it would be on them in ten seconds, tops.

If the Hunter managed to pin them down, then once the Death Claw caught up, there would be no escape for any of them.

’Damn it, how could we be so unlucky? We must have made too much noise and been discovered ahead of time to get ambushed like this,’ Yan Feijie thought, annoyed at the situation unfolding before him.

Of course, he knew being annoyed was useless. Dealing with the current situation was what mattered most. He immediately looked toward Qin Qi, the captain of Squad 2.

He knew the man was a second-year student whose strength had already reached the Peak of Blood Qi Realm. A few days ago, he had even managed to get on the Hero Ranking. Although he was only at the bottom of the list, it was still undeniable proof of his power.

The thought of having such a powerful expert present calmed Yan Feijie slightly. He quickly asked, "Captain Qin, what do we do now?"

"Don’t panic. I’ve already sent a distress signal to the commander. The crisis will be resolved soon, so don’t worry."

Qin Qi first reassured Yan Feijie, then turned to the others and said, "Keep firing, don’t stop! It took a lot of effort to attract a horde of this size. We can’t let the other squads outdo us, or we’ll lose a huge chunk of our merit points."

Hearing this, Yan Feijie’s first thought was, ’Impossible.’

They were at least ten kilometers away from the shopping mall where Lin Xinghai was. Even at the speed of the Rare Level Mecha, it would take several minutes to get here.

If they didn’t find a way to shake it, the Death Claw would probably arrive in less than thirty seconds.

By the time Lin Xinghai arrived in the Rare Level Mecha, he’d probably be collecting their corpses.

But seeing the calm expression on Qin Qi’s face, Yan Feijie couldn’t help but hesitate and doubt his own thoughts.

He also noticed that the other people in the vehicle weren’t panicking as he’d expected. Some were even acting as if the three Mutated Zombies didn’t exist.

Yan Feijie recognized one of them as Sun Tianbo, one of the first members to follow Lin Xinghai.

He couldn’t help but shift his feet and move closer, intending to ask why the man was so calm, when he suddenly heard Sun Tianbo mutter under his breath, "By my count, the commander should be here by now!"

For a moment, Yan Feijie didn’t understand what he meant. But he had been keeping an eye on the zombie radar, and he suddenly noticed that the red dot representing the Spitter in the distance had vanished.

He subconsciously thought his eyes were playing tricks on him. But when he blinked and looked again, he was horrified to see that the large red dot representing the Death Claw had also flickered once and disappeared.
