Chapter 413 From Despair to Storm
The man from Ark Camp Two was caught off guard and kicked straight into the sea of zombies, about to be swallowed whole.
A vine shot from his hand,shing tightly around the second–inmand.
It snapped taut in an instant, binding them together.
The zombies grabbed him.
And with the pull of the horde, they dragged the second–inmand in as well.
With a deafening crash, the dining table split apart.
The two of them were wedged across the broken table–one on each side—held fast by several thick vines.
Like waves breaking on a shore, zombies surged onto the table, tearing into them in great, hungry bites.
“Mr. Thornton!”
“Mr. Faulkner!”
Two different voices shouted their names at the same time.
It was Ark Camp Three that moved first. Their people rushed forward, shoving the second–inmand into the horde, then pushed the split table halves back together, wedging a chair leg between them to create a narrow angle–just enough to block the zombies for another moment.
“For now, we drop every grudge we’ve got and throw in everything we’ve got! If we don’t, we’re done for!”
The new administrator shouted as he unleashed his dual abilities–water–based and metal–based.
Water orbs burst outward in a steady stream.
Knives and sharp tools spun through the air, each one sinking cleanly into a zombie’s skull.
Wave after wave of zombies fell back.
The others joined in without a word, using their abilities at full force.
Even Morgan began channeling his mental maniption ability.
Every side in this fight had wanted the others dead
However, they were now all in the same boat, forced to work together.
Minute by minute, the rescue they were waiting for never came–only more and more zombies.
“What if your rescue team isn’ting at all?” someone shouted.

It hit them then that the second–inmand who’d just been killed had locked the doors on several floors below.
No one could get up here.
So, where would help evene from?
The realization drained what little strength some still had. A few stumbled, knees giving out, their abilities sputtering dry. When the truth sank in, they simply copsed.
Bang!
A zombie roared and smashed through the thick tabletop, hooked its ws into a fallen man’s hair, and yanked him backward, driving his head through the splintered wood.
The creatures snarled and gnashed through the gap, ripping into his skull.
His body jerked violently on the other side of the table.
<i>The </i>sight jolted the others. Those who had given up scrambled to pull back with whatever energy they could find.
Meanwhile, the horde–uncontrolled and endless–kept pouring in, climbing over their own dead to breach the thin defense.
Their snarls filled the air.
Seventeen or eighteen zombies scrambled in at once, lunging at the people in the very back.
It was over.
They were all doomed.
Even Morgan had gone pale, his mind empty of any n. Was this really the end?
Then, inside Theresa’s mind, a voice rang out.
‘Ding! Leader System activated! Eliminate one thousand zombies within thirty minutes–reward: a random prize!
Theresa blinked<i>. </i>A random <i>prize</i>?
While everyone else drowned in despair, an invisible Aeroshield shimmered into existence before them.
And then, the power that followed hook the room like a mountain splitting open.
The iing horde mmed info the barrier, only to be sted back by a roaring wall of mist.
In that instant, it was as if every drop of moisture in the air had been sucked away. Faces and palms went dry.
The next second, the mist exploded outward.
It filled every inch of the room, sparing only the living.

Each droplet hit like a bullet at high velocity.
In less than a second, the hundred or so zombies inside were wiped out..
The snarling chorus went silent. Zombies littered the wet floor.
Everyone stood frozen.
They turned toward the impossible source of such overwhelming power–it was Theresa.
But there was no time to take it in.
The ss windows shattered with a roar.
Zombies packed into the hallway smashed through pane after pane.
