Chapter 280: The Second Wave

Just as the group of people were wondering what power level Henry was in, several ice spears suddenly launched into the air, bringing with it cold temperatures that cooled down the air that was heat up by Henry’s fireball.

They did not go to the same direction that the fireball had gone to. But instead, they headed in another direction, opposite the direction of the fireball.

Those that were directly hit by the ice spears on the spot turned into ice sculptures that broke down in the next moment.

Bang!

The ice spears landed on the ground, and the heavy sound of the ice spears landing on the ground could be heard. The moment that the ice spears landed, the zombies in the surrounding areas suddenly froze.

The ice spears that were currently lodged on the ground began giving out a very intense cold energy wave that began spreading. And the moment that any zombie was touched by the cold energy wave, it would be frozen immediately.

Although they were not turned into ice sculptures, but still, they were completely frozen into statues. And at this moment, all the zombies that were frozen died because even the brain was no longer functioning, which was the only part of the zombies that was ’alive’.

Olivia had not launched a single spear, but instead, she had launched seven of them at the same time. So, the area that she had affected was quite big, and could actually compete with the range at which the Fireball had affected the zombies.

The cold energy wave that was spreading from the ice spears was something that Olivia had learnt during the time that she was practicing ice manipulation on their trip to Lockwood city.

The expressions of those on top of the wall changed again. They had not expected that Olivia was this strong. Even Stanley was completely dumbfounded.

It was true that he had already been informed that Olivia was at the 7th level of the silver rank, but right now, seeing the capabilities that she was possessing, he could not help but admire and fear her at the same time.

Vincent on the other hand nodded his head. He had not been informed about Olivia’s current power level. But nevertheless, he had already thought that she was strong, considering that they had moved from Crystal city, and arrived here at Lockwood City that was several hundred kilometers away, the distance which had been increased during the second stage of the apocalypse.

He was feeling proud Inside, considering that Olivia was his daughter at the end of the day. And with the contributions that she was making right now, it was a fact that she had to be given several benefits.

He could feel that the power that was contained in the attack that was launched by Olivia right now was definitely quite above his own. That implied that Olivia might actually be a level above him, a level 7 silver rank mutant warrior.

Just then, several arrows were launched in the air. It was none other than Diana who was attacking. She was an archer, and she used the wind element. So, all the arrows that were currently flying towards the group of zombies were made out of the wind element.

As they began raining down, the zombies in the area which the arrows were aimed towards were immediately destroyed. The power in Diana’s attack was not to be underestimated at all.

So, in just three waves of attacks, a large portion of zombies had been cleared out. This immediately relieved the people that were fighting below the wall. Had it not been for the fact that they were still in the middle of a fight, they would have been cheering right now.

They could level up as long as they killed the zombies. So, it was better if they faced more zombies. But still, if the number of zombies was just so overwhelming, then, instead of leveling up, they might just end up dead.

So, when they noticed that the number of zombies that were attacking them was finally reducing, although not by a big margin, they felt relieved. They believed that as long as those that were on top of the wall began attacking, then, it would not be difficult for them to be able to deal with the zombies.

Of course, they could not see the zombies that were still standing behind. Even after the attacks that were launched by Henry and his group, the zombies remained in the same position, as if they did not even care about the zombies that had been killed.

Vincent on the other hand had also realized this. But still, looking at the group of people who were finally taking action, after being surprised by the three people that had attacked, he nodded. If they continued like this, they would definitely be able to defeat this wave of zombies.

But still, there was one thing that Vincent was finding a little bit strange. That was the fact that Henry was capable of using fire element during the time that he was attacking. And the power of the attack that he was launching was definitely not something weak, but looking at the way that he was attacking, it was clear that he was not even going all out at all.

According to the information that he possessed, Henry was a summoner. But although he was a summoner, he also possessed the fire element, making him also a mage. This was the first time that he was seeing a person with two professions.

And other than that, it seemed that none of his professions was weak at all. Just looking at that elf that was standing behind him, it was clear that the elf was just as strong as Henry himself was.

Currently, Henry possessed three summoned creatures. And according to how he knew that the summoning profession worked, all the summoned creatures of a person were at the same level.

This was enough to tell Vincent that Henry was definitely a force to be reckoned with. With three subordinates that were at the same level as himself, while he himself was just as strong, Henry was definitely not a person that anyone would want to make an enemy out of.

It was also during this moment that Vincent thought that he made the right decision by not trying to offend Henry in any way. At the same time, he made a mental note that after this, he had to make sure that the Jeep that was owned by Henry was brought back no matter what.

...

Henry did not stop with a single attack. But this time, he decided to reduce the power of his attack. Although he had reduced it, he increased the frequency at which he was launching several fireballs towards the zombies.

So, at this moment, several explosions began occurring behind the zombies. As for those that were fighting below the wall, they began retreating, trying to ensure that they were not caught up in one of those explosions. They were sure that the moment that they were caught in between it, they would be dead.

Three people attacking at the same time immediately took the spotlight from the other people on top of the wall that were also attacking at the same time. And although all the three of them were holding back, the power that they were currently showing was enough to make them take some of the highest positions within the territory.

Finally, after about 2 minutes, Henry and the others on top of the wall stopped attacking. Although they could eliminate all the zombies that were below the wall with the assistance of Henry and his group, they did not do so.

For the future improvement of the territory, those people that were currently possessing lower combat power were required to fight against the zombies, so that they could level up as well.

That was the reason why Henry and the others stopped attacking completely. At the same time, they finally focused their full attention on the zombies at the very end who were still in the same position, not moving even an inch, as if they had been frozen in the same position.

Due to the fact that Henry, Diana, and Olivia had been attacking, and the power that they possessed was quite high, all the others that were attacking together with them had forgotten the instruction that was given by Vincent.

If they tried to hold back, then that meant that the attacks that they were launching could be completely ignored when compared to the attacks that were being launched by Henry and the other two. So, these people had been attacking using their full strengths, making sure that they did not remain behind.

And right now, the majority of them were having pale faces, while others were already soaked in sweat, while breathing heavily. As for Henry and the other two, there was not even a single hint of them getting tired at all.

They were looking the same way that they were before they began attacking. This immediately told everyone that was looking at them that they were actually holding back. So, with such strength, they were still holding back. Just how strong were they if they decided to go all out?

About 10 minutes later, the battle below the wall finally ended. As for the survivors of the fight, they immediately began retreating into the territory. The next stage of the battle was not something that they could get involved in.

Just after this group of people went back into the territory, the zombies that had been standing in the same position for a while now, finally began moving. As they moved forward, they were not rushing like the zombies that had attacked first, but instead, they were moving forward calmly, as if they were just going out for a walk.
