For the first few days, the soldiers were still laboriously killing the zombies who had surrounded the entire basecamp. However, they gradually realized that it was all futile; kill one, and two more would fill the spot. The entire country had become the Zombie King's troops and the military basecamp was akin to an isolated island amidst the poisonous blood sea.
Everyone's nerves were strung taut, and the higher-ups converged meetings after meetings to discuss what they should do. Without Commander Yang Tengfei's lead, they were akin to a beast who lost its fangs, struggling desperately on its last breath under the pitiful mercy of the domineering enemy.
After careful observation, the soldiers belatedly discovered that the zombies did not seem like they intended to attack. They would only move once the soldiers launched a strike, otherwise they would always remain still. Just like a force of oppressing yet silent fortress.
