Chapter 246: Chapter 208, Waiting for His Death (first update)._1

The people of the inner city needed someone to resolve the crisis with the Hammer Party.

Who was pulling the strings behind the scenes didn’t really matter.

Whether it was a powerful necromancer living in the city or a recently appointed association captain, it made no difference.

All they needed was someone who could solve the immediate problem.

“The formation adjusts, prepare for the attack,” the City Lord inhaled deeply and ordered.

The City Lord and the old gentry in the city began to raise morale, preparing for the final battle mobilization.

They already reached an agreement with Wu Heng, but whether they could ultimately defeat the notorious Hammer Party would depend on how the battle unfolded.

Nothing was certain.

They could only hope that Lady Luck would favor Lundham City.

And not let them die here.

…

On the other side.

After the Hammer Party’s magician released several fire magic spells, he still couldn’t escape the room.

His chest was impaled by a blazing blade, and he gradually fell.

He looked back at Wu Heng behind him with bitter resentment and helplessness in his eyes.

Perhaps getting involved with the Hammer Party was a mistake from the start.

As the Blazing Blade withdrew the longsword, it stood aside again.

Wu Heng walked over from behind, glanced at the corpse, and ordered, “Take all his gear off and get a container to collect the blood.”

Several skeletons dispersed and followed his orders.

Soon, the carcass was stripped down and a wooden bucket was placed underneath to collect the blood.

Blood dripped into the bucket like clockwork.

“Wen Mansha!” Wu Heng shouted.

Wen Mansha walked in from outside, first glanced at the body being bled out, and then asked, “What’s the matter, master?”

“Stand guard outside and don’t let anyone in. Also, keep an eye on the battlefield situation,” Wu Heng instructed.

“Alright!” Wen Mansha responded without further questions and promptly closed the room’s large door.

Wu Heng then directly opened the boundary door off to the Zombie World.

Appearing again in the hotel room, he glanced at the watch on the wall: ten in the morning.

He quickly advanced to the window and pulled open the curtain to look outside.

When he saw a fleet of cars already parked at the roadside, Wu Heng’s face relaxed slightly.

Picking up the transceiver to call Li Yahong and then quickly going downstairs.

…

Outside the hotel.

Li Yahong frowned as she watched Wu Heng, “What happened to you?”

He had been fighting all night, although there was no close combat, he still looked rather haggard.

His clothes were dusty, and his complexion wasn’t stellar.

“I was commanding the fight last night. It’s nothing.” Wu Heng casually responded, then asked, “Did you bring the items?”

“They’re here!” Li Yahong waved back, and Qiangzi drove an electric tricycle with two heavy machine guns mounted on metal racks, along with skeletons to operate the heavy machine guns.

…

Returning to Lundham City.

They could already hear the sound of an ongoing battle and the ear-piercing cries of war.

At the same time, audible from outside the door, were angry and anxious voices.

“I demand to meet Captain Wu Heng! We agreed on a simultaneous attack, why aren’t you acting yet?”

“With the Iron Guard Knights’ casualties so high, it’ll be tough for you to defeat the enemy, too.”

At the same time, Wen Mansha could also be heard, “The Captain is unable to see you at the moment, please wait a while!”

“You, a small faction, dare to speak to me in such a tone?”

Wen Mansha responded, “Wait outside.”

Overhearing the conversation, Wu Heng immediately grasped the situation.

The Iron Guard Knights had already initiated their attack, but seeing that Wu Heng had yet to send out his forces, they had sent someone to urge him on.

Summoning his White Bone Armor, Wu Heng opened the door to see the perspiring obese official who had spoken earlier standing in the doorway.

Seeing Wu Heng emerge, the fat official suppressed his initial desire to interrogate and asked, “Captain Wu Heng, why haven’t you sent your troops yet? What are you waiting for?”

Wu Heng glanced at the engaged parties and said, “I give the order for my troops to attack now. You can leave.”

“Oh, right, thank you, Captain, you must send your troops out.” The fat official then left hurriedly.

Wu Heng then summoned the creatures in the room like the big guy and the scary claw monsters and skeletons.

Then, after reevaluating the state of the battlefield, he said directly, “Carrion, attack, kill all the Hammer Party mainlanders.”

Splash!

The standby zombies moved in unison, carrying weapons, and attacking the Hammer Party.

The zombies’ movement immediately set off alarms for both battling parties.

At the sight of the incoming mob of carrion, the Hammer Party descended into noticeable chaos.

Immediately, a troop was dispatched to confront the carrion.

In an instant, the battle began, and the carrion entered the battlefield.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

And as the carrion started dying.

Their bodies began to explode, green poisonous fumes starting to rise and spread.

…

Three factions converged.

The cries of war, sound of exploding bodies, filled the entire battlefield.

The combat zone spread to main roads and small alleys, with green poisonous gas spreading, as if they were in the middle of a swamp infested with deadly miasma.

The Iron Guard Knights held the castle wall advantage, and a rain of arrows fell from above indiscriminately into the Hammer Party’s central area.

It skewered through the bodies of the Hammer Party and the carrion, leaving many fallen on the ground.

The Hammer Party was numerous, and their fighting style was fierce and vicious, fending off the combined forces of the other two factions.

However, the poisonous gas from the carrion was eroding all living beings, with many being brought down by it, then killed by the undead.

It wasn’t just the Hammer party. The poisonous gas had spread to part of the Iron Guard Knights, who also started losing numbers.

The entire battlefield was in chaos.

Two factions were targeting the Hammer Party, but they showed no mercy to each other either.
