Chapter 450 Into the Swarm
“Open the gates. Lead these squads out and coordinate with the elite teams Full extermination
“Everyone else, stay inside the walls. Await further orders. The moment someone goes down, swap them out immediately.
“Medical teams, stand by. Every casualty gets treated the second they come through.
Under Robin’s command, the battle had transformed from the initial chaos into something orderly and lethal.
Maybe it was the iron certainty in her voice. Maybe it was the jaw–dropping power her team had just displayed. Whatever the reason, the people of Heningford Base rallied around her like she was the anchor they’d been waiting for.
Residents who’d been sinking into despair felt something reignite inside them. They picked up their weapons, and their eyes burned.
Ella and the others had plenty of combat experience, but they’d always fought as a small, tight–knit unit. only cooperating with their teammates.
This was the first time any of them had led a large–scale operation.
‘Robin, can we really do this?”
Ella asked, a note of uncertainty in her voice.
Robin nodded. “Absolutely. Trust yourselves. And don’t forget–I’ve got your backs.”
That was all it took. Every last trace of hesitation vanished.
Dane cracked his knuckles. “Then, what are we waiting for? Let’s go.”
The massive fortress gates ground open, and the various squads moved out in a steady line. Until now, they had spent the entire siege safely atop the stone walls, picking off the zombies trying to beach the perimeter. With the stone walls acting as a buffer, the battle–while turning into a brutal war of attrition– had kept the pressure relatively manageable.
But outside the gates, they were face–to–face with thousands of snarling zombies at ground level A wall of infected slammed toward them, carrying a wave of rot and fresh blood so overwhelming it almost knocked the breath out of them.
The roars were deafening, the horde pressing in from every side It was a terrifying sight
Even after Robin’s team had eliminated the lower level zombies, over 5,000 remained
Nothing in their lives had prepared them for a fight at this seale
The psychological pressure multiplied instantly. Robin monitored everything from the wall above. She knew that forging these people into real fighters wouldn’t happen overnight

Ite energy surged through her palms, and dozens of towering ice walls erupted from the ground, slicing the zombie swarm into isolated pockets.
Ella understood instantly “We take them apart piece by piece!”
She gave the order and charged, the power of Hercules radiating outward from her body in a devastating
shockwave.
The residents behind her gritted their teeth and followed.
To hell with these things.
‘Charge!”
‘I didn’t survive this long just to die now! Let’s go!”
‘We finally found a decent place to live! My wife’s got a baby on the way. I have to protect her?”
Wave after wave of fighters plunged into the divided swarm, and the zombie shrieks swallowed their battle cries whole.
Every single person fought with everything they had. Why was that?
That was because they’d survived the worst of the early apocalypse.
