"Art!"
"Is an explosion!!"
The red light in Shawn's eyes flared, and he stood in the center of the high wall, slowly raising his hands from his sides.
A roar far more intense than a usual Walker horde approached from afar.
In Shawn's gradually widening pupils, the first Mutated Corpse at the forefront of the horde finally stepped onto the small mound with branches stuck in it.
Boom--!!!
Flames erupted!
Instantly, the first Mutated Corpse was completely engulfed, and the area damage even affected the Walker horde closely following behind it.
In Shawn's eyes.
The health bar of the first Mutated Corpse instantly dropped to zero, with no further signs of movement.
The health bars of the row of Mutated Corpses immediately behind it were almost halved, and the row behind that was only reduced by about a third.
But before the damage floating above the Mutated Corpse horde disappeared, the half-health Walkers triggered landmines again, and a new round of explosions followed!
Fire and sand mixed together, creating a chain reaction that quickly activated the other landmines!
Shawn closed his eyes, and blood-streaked veins expanded on his slightly raised neck.
The sound of blood-red thunder tearing through the sky came from his ears, mixed with the increasingly furious roars of various landmines and Walkers, large damage numbers continuously rose, and the entire world seemed to change color at this moment!
"That's it, the intertwining of blood and red, let the storm come more fiercely!"
As if in response to Shawn's words, a blood-red lightning bolt suddenly struck in front of the Prison, and notifications of experience gain kept appearing before Shawn's eyes.
With the four-times experience boost, the experience bar rapidly increased at a visible speed.
The Blood Moon was both a crisis and an opportunity.
A Mutated Corpse horde of 200 could yield experience points comparable to a large horde of 800 Walkers.
Just as the landmine array exploded in a chain reaction, Shawn's vision was flooded with experience points, and he leveled up two levels in a single blink.
Shawn faced the crimson sky, his body radiating a golden glow, and the pleasant, soothing music in his ears formed a strong contrast with the thrilling and tense Blood Moon battle before his eyes!
Shawn suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils seemingly elongating vertically at that moment.
Grabbing his tactical assault rifle, Shawn took a deep breath, exhaling a visible breath like mist.
"Fire!!"
The voice struggling from his throat reached the ears of the army led by Sean.
They had their gun barrels lined up along the high wall in front of the Prison, and the moment they received Shawn's command, gunfire replaced the gradually ceasing sound of landmine explosions, bullets pouring out relentlessly!
Seeing such a large horde of Walkers, a strange glint flashed in Sean's eyes.
"It really is those Mutated Corpses!"
He glanced at the gun in his hand, directly propped his AK-47 at his waist, stepped forward to stand beside Shawn, and frantically sprayed bullets downwards.
"But this time, I won't turn and run away!"
Sean's face was resolute, and a hint of ferocity flashed in his eyes; he had been annoyed by these Mutated Corpses for a long time.
The last time he and Shawn escaped separately in the cell block, it almost led to Shawn's death in the cells.
This time, he absolutely had to completely destroy these damned Walkers!
As long as the firepower was sufficient, there was nothing that couldn't be eliminated; if it couldn't be eliminated, then just upgrade the firepower again and directly use full firepower coverage!
Shawn remained silent, simply focused on killing Walkers.
Every time a notification of a Mutated Corpse kill came from his ears, it brought him a sense of comfort, which in turn alleviated his frantic emotions.
The thick black smoke and mist raised by the landmine explosions merged together.
The Walker horde began to break through the Prison's first line of defense!
How many did the landmine array eliminate?
40? 50?
Shawn had no time to count, but he paused his firing after continuously spraying for nearly a minute.
At the same time, Sean and the rest of the army did the same.
Continuous firing of weapons required pauses to allow the gun barrels to cool down, otherwise, the firearms would be rendered useless before the war against the Walkers ended.
After several minutes of high-intensity firing, the barrels of long firearms would even turn red-hot and melt.
But Shawn was different from them; the moment he stopped, he silently used a 'repair tool' to directly fix his tactical assault rifle.
His pause was merely to wait for the right moment.
Until the subsequent Mutated Corpse horde broke through the first line of defense and continued to rush towards him, crashing into the 'Electric Barrier', Shawn knew the opportunity had arrived, it was now!
The Mutated Corpse that crashed into the 'Electric Barrier' was instantly forced back by the electricity spreading over it.
This was the first time he had seen a Mutated Corpse retreat; the electric energy was not visible to the naked eye, but it truly permeated the entire body of the Mutated Corpse!
After the Mutated Corpse retreated two steps, it stopped moving for a moment, standing still with its limbs slightly trembling and its face contorted in a grimace.
Although Mutated Corpses had more agile movements than ordinary Walkers, or abilities formed by special influences.
But as long as it was a Walker, or rather, as long as it was a human body, or the essence of a carbon-based life form, it would definitely be affected!
"And I thought you were so powerful!"
"Why aren't you screaming at me now?"
Sean was holding back his anger, and Shawn was also holding back his.
Whether it was previously in the church, or later in the Prison's cell block, he was almost always cornered by these Mutated Corpses.
Unbeknownst to others, Shawn was not as omnipotent as he usually appeared; there were times when he, too, faced life-and-death crises!
However, now, some subtle changes had occurred; the tables had turned!
Although the Blood Moon Walkers always played the role of the aggressor, the current scene showed Shawn leading the Prison's people in hunting down the Mutated Corpses.
"I'll kill every single one of you until none are left!!"
Shawn was full of killing intent, letting out a roar even more violent than the Mutated Corpses, his malevolence seemingly about to materialize, and the oppressive feeling emanating from him grew stronger and stronger!
Shawn's marksmanship was not as good as the rest of the army.
However, fortunately for Shawn, damage was re-measured numerically; he only needed to deplete a Walker's health bar to kill it.
When he had point-killed three more Walkers with only one-third of their health remaining, the first two 'Electric Barrier' defense lines had already been breached.
The 'Electric Barrier' could temporarily incapacitate Mutated Corpses, but it was still somewhat ineffective against a horde, unable to provide continuous control, which was why Shawn meticulously set up multiple layers of defense.
The barriers on both sides remained sturdy, but the electric wires in the middle were severed.
The moment the Mutated Corpse horde reached the third 'Electric Barrier' defense line, Shawn saw a familiar figure emerge from among the horde.
A corpulent Walker body, looking 3 to 5 times larger than a normal Walker, with every part of its body swollen as if it had been soaked in water.
