No matter what, the two remaining grand zombies remaining in the first and second basin had to be killed in the shortest duration possible.
Then I had to go directly to New Jersey and check the situation over there myself.
"Thundering Might!" I was going all out from the start. And my enemies did as well.
The next instant my pillar broke free and created a grand shield that left the attacking and defending beams of red light behind. I repeatedly used the skill before finally turning my cold gaze upon the grand zombie.
I didn't think of anything while summoning tons of my warriors. The place here was still filled with many zombies even after the massacre I committed not long ago.
As expected, the grand zombie called forth for tons of weak zombies to help it in building the den. However I wasn't caring about that anymore. That zombie and the other one back there needed to be killed.
"Attack!" I pointed towards the grand zombie and ordered for my fallen gods to attack. The zombie roared, tried to blink and escape, even tried to come at me.
No matter how hard it tried, nothing helped. With the aid of my fallen gods, that grand zombie kept being thrown back into the ground without much suspense.
Every single time it fell, my warriors down there moved and attacked it. They left part to deal with the weak zombies around while trying to get a piece from that grand zombie.
"Thundering Might!" every once in a while I'd replenish the damaged shields with more. Like this the angels stood on the side without any way to help the entrapped grand zombie.
Without any surprise, the zombie fell in less than one hour. Once that zombie fell to the ground motionless, I summoned more warriors before finally leaving here.
I didn't forget to leave behind tons of shields to make sure this place was sealed off the zombies from outside. I didn't look behind as I jumped towards the last grand zombie.
The welcome from the angels was warm and useless like before. The red beam just flashed over my head without any risk at all. The grand zombie tried to come at me as well, however I moved fast the moment I appeared there.
I knew this was all they got to stop me. Without any delay, I used the pillar and created a shield to stop the incoming attack and protection as well, then I summoned my warriors.
In less than one hour, the last zombie fell as well.
"Like this only the last zombie is alive… And the four basins are all sealed… Sh*t! I forgot about the fourth basin…"
I was lost in the middle of fighting the grand zombies and forgot that I didn't go and visit the last basin. I knew without the presence of the grand zombie there, things weren't going to be bad.
But the formation of a den could be accomplished by using the small zombies as well. Without any hesitation I opened a portal and jumped towards the last basin.
"As expected…" The moment I appeared I was welcomed with a grand scene of endless zombies working non-stop to dig the ground. This time the hole wasn't that huge like before but it was close to the one in the third basin.
Without the presence of grand zombies orchestrating their work, the small zombies found it hard to dig the hole and make the den fast.
And yet that didn't mean they wouldn't succeed. Given enough time, they'd be able to finalise such a task in a few more days.
"Thundering Might!" as I arrived, a red beam assaulted me without any delay. I called for my protective shield first and formed thick layers of it before calling for my warriors.
This time I didn't leave behind small numbers. They needed to kill the zombies and close up this hole as well. I waited there for half an hour before I finally saw the zombies getting routed.
With the shield stopping their retreat path, they couldn't run or wait for reinforcements. My warriors would exterminate them easily and then close this hole in no time.
"Time to check over that battleground over there…" I opened a portal and moved through the portal towards the other end.
During my delay of a few hours, I got no news from Isac or Lily. The two seemed to freak out when they realised that some places inside the kingdom were unreachable.
It wasn't a good thing indeed. However this was expected. I fought tons of grand battles and slain lots of strong monsters. Having these monsters and an endless stream of dead enemies turn into zombies was unavoidable.
I thanked my luck in deciding not to jump over the other worlds before stabilising the situation here. Like this I got a good chance now to cope and adapt.
The moment I went there, I was welcomed with a grave scene that I expected. However the situation was much dire than what I expected.
This place was supposed to be New Jersey city. I fought a bitter fight here when I took over the city.
A grand dark real monster came and it ended up dying under the collaboration of many races. Together we managed to kill it after spending large effort and having tons of twists.
The situation here wasn't that much different. The entire city was already under control of endless zombies led by a mountain sized one.
Seeing this grand zombie that left the other four grand zombies behind in pale made me worry. This wasn't just the last grand zombie that appeared out of a hideous monster I killed before.
And being this close from this one made me realise it would take tons of effort to take it down. Not to mention the moment I appeared there, the angels used their red beams to attack me and another one to defend this giant dude.
To make it possible they seemed to use more than a hundred star weapons up there to shield it. The body of this beast was close to being called a living mountain, with many smaller zombies scattered all over its body.
I still recalled how I took down this beast. We needed to dig deep into its body and look for its scattered hearts.
Not to mention the trip around its body wasn't that smooth. It had the ability to summon small monsters and that seemed to turn into the ability to summon small zombies.
In my eyes, it turned itself into a miniature version of a zombie den. Without the need to inspect every single inch of its body, I knew this monster was covered with hundreds of thousands of smaller zombies.
And watching closer made me see tons of them move down the ground and spread all over the city. The small zombies were fighting hard against whoever remained here from my troops.
Staying alive for all this time was mainly thanks to the help of castles and their support. However this wasn't going to protect them forever.
I knew if that grand zombie decided to take action, then nothing would stop in its path. For a reason it didn't, as if it was enjoying this weird sense of agony and torture spreading all over the city.
*Roar!*
It looked like it was standing idly here waiting for me. The moment I appeared, it roared in such a violent way and that standing still monster started to move.
Even with such colossal body, its speed wasn't something that could be called slow. It didn't care about any building in the city, less caring about other zombies.
It smashed tons of zombies in the ground while drawing close to me. I narrowed my eyes while watching it getting closer. It got bathed under thick red beams of light that turned its ugly looking pale yellow skin into something more pleasant to see.
In my eyes, it looked like it turned berserk. However I knew it wasn't.
"I don't think killing you this time will be that hard…" I paused and didn't hurry to start out the battle.
This was one of my early acquired cities. I didn't want to turn this place into ruins and damage everything here.
So I slowly drew away from the city, tricking this mountain sized zombie to come out of New Jersey.
Just as I waited for it to get out of the city, I finally saw the spot where it was occupying. That damn bastard didn't just call for zombies from its body, it also acted to make the zombies dig underneath it, almost this close from finalising a grand den there.
Seeing this turned my face darker. I planned to draw this monster outside and take my time kiting it down. It got such a grand body that I even doubted fighting it all out for days was enough to kill it.
