Despite being a man who did not do too well under stressful situations, Chen Ming was excellent at executing orders from above. Immediately after he retreated, he delegated the instructions to different stewards who then quickly passed Yue Zhong’s orders further down, assigning various tasks to everyone..
The entire Clear Wind Camp bustled with activity, as all of the residents knew they were about to face the siege of over 10,000 Mutant Pigs. Once all of them had gathered, they immediately dispersed in their teams to carry out their assigned tasks.
A large amount of debris was moved out of the various rooms that had been destroyed, before being piled up at the various alleys, roads and tunnels to block them off.
Within a building, a few hundred women constantly filled up countless bottles with precious gasoline, completing makeshift molotovs. Clear Wind Camp did have some resources like fuel, but not much. After all, fuel was an extremely valuable, non-renewable resource even before the apocalypse: without it, the teams searching for resources would not be able to function properly as their vehicles would be useless. They would not be able to travel out too far and this would be extremely detrimental to the searching process.
Many other ladies and children were also gathered to move wooden planks, waste paper, plastic sheets, foam and various other items, placing them to the west of the department store.
400 able-bodied men were rounded up too, as they gathered shovels, hammers, knives, bats, watermelon knives and any other bizarre weapons they could find, before sending them to the front line for use as backup preparations.
Yue Zhong took a look at the 800 men who he had trained, before he spoke out with huge killing intent,
“I won’t bother too many with useless words! Now that the end is already nigh, if the camp is broken into, then we will definitely be torn into pieces by those beasts in the wilderness! No one will survive unless we defend this place- only then we will have a sliver of hope. From now on, without my orders, whoever dares to retreat will be shot dead on the spot! Defend the camp now and I will let you eat meat everyday for an entire month!”
Upon hearing Yue Zhong’s words, everyone’s hearts turned cold.
After he finished speaking, Yue Zhong leapt down from the watchtower. Zhuo Yatong brought Yun Caiwei, Gu Manzi and Tong Xiaoyun with her as she followed behind Yue Zhong.
After all, Zhuo Yatong was a Strength-type Evolver, so in order to bolster the strength of Clear Wind Camp’s forces, she was allocated to be one of the frontline fighters. Although killing other humans was impossible for her, she had an advantage when it came to Mutant Beasts.
Xiong Zheng brought his 2nd Company over and began to lay out defenses atop the platform.
Amongst the 3 Companies that Yue Zhong had trained up, Xiong Zheng’s Company was the most outstanding and showed the most potential; it was also the Company that had the best fighters.
The densely packed herd of Mutant Pigs was rushing towards the camp like a flood: as they neared, Yue Zhong could make out their features more clearly.
When comparing these Mutant Pigs with those normal pigs prior to the apocalypse, these Mutant Pigs had bigger, rounder, red eyes. In addition, their 4 limbs were thicker and stronger, their muscles more taut and powerful, and they exuded an aggressive atmosphere. While running, their speed was comparable to wild boars of the pre-apocalypse days.
As soon as that herd of Mutant Pigs came over to this region, they caught onto the smell of the large number of humans within Clear Wind Camp. They became excited and charged in the direction of Clear Wind Camp.
The main source of food for these Mutant Pigs was zombies, but they preferred to eat live humans if they had the chance to.
Yue Zhong had gathered a large amount of manpower to dig many pits 3m deep and 4m in diameter outside of Clear Wind Camp. Apart from the main road, the surroundings of Clear Wind Camp were now riddled with one pit after another.
