Wang Tao stood alone at the breach, a shockwave could kill dozens of zombies at once, but the zombies had no concept of fear and kept swarming towards the base relentlessly.

Ding Yuqin and the others also started to attack, momentarily holding back the zombie onslaught.

However, as more and more zombies arrived, everyone other than Wang Tao began to feel the pressure.

Especially with those three-four-level Zombie Lords lurking menacingly outside, not only did they have to stop the zombies but also prevent sneak attacks—which, under high mental concentration, drained their physical and mental strength significantly.

After Wang Tao once again sliced through dozens of zombies with a single strike, he suddenly remembered the armor he had obtained from killing the bald zombie.

[Black Iron Heavy Armor]

[Level Four (Epic)]

[Durability+300, defensive power+200, speed-50%, fire resistance, Ability: Not Inlaid (requires Awakening Energy to activate)]

It was a set of armor that could protect the whole body with an incredibly high defensive power. But it came with the side effect of halving one’s speed.

For Wang Tao, speed was more important than defense; after all, with enough speed, you wouldn’t get hit.

But under the current circumstances, Wang Tao had been staying put at the breach without moving much, so the importance of speed was negligible!

Why not give it a try?

No sooner had he thought of it than Wang Tao immediately donned the Black Iron Heavy Armor.

The Black Iron Heavy Armor was jet black, and it looked handsome when worn. Especially when someone with Wang Tao’s build put it on and stood there—it was like standing a door god!

At that moment, Wang Tao felt one thing—heavy!

No wonder the speed was reduced by 50%! The reduction wasn’t just in movement speed, but also in attack speed! Wang Tao felt as though he had been sealed, clumsy and powerless.

Fortunately, Wang Tao was strong, and he quickly adapted to the weight.

He strode to the middle of the breach and looked at the zombies, swinging his blade fiercely.

The slash was much slower than before, but the power of the shockwave hadn’t diminished, instantly shattering a large number of zombies.

Some of the faster zombies had already reached Wang Tao, but facing their bites, Wang Tao didn’t bother to dodge.

Clang, clang, clang—

The zombies’ attacks hit Wang Tao, making tinkling sounds, but they didn’t cause any damage!

Wang Tao swung his sword again, easily disposing of the zombies in front of him.

After holding out like this for a few minutes, Wang Tao laughed heartily.

“Indeed, this is the proper way to use the Black Iron Heavy Armor!”

With the Black Iron Heavy Armor on, he was indeed heavier and slower, but he didn’t have to actively defend!

As long as the four-level zombies didn’t take action, no zombie could break through his defense!

And all he needed to do was attack with all his might!

This actually increased Wang Tao’s efficiency by quite a bit!

However, Wang Tao’s joy didn’t last long; the zombie horde intensified its attack again, and this time, those three four-level zombies came with it!

“Can’t wait any longer, can you!”

Wang Tao took a deep breath and then said to Lan Yulian and the others nearby:

“Fall back!”

Upon hearing this, they didn’t hesitate and immediately moved away from Wang Tao.

Wang Tao watched the three approaching four-level zombies, took another deep breath, and suddenly flames flared up on him.

Starfire Prairie!

Originally, Wang Tao had thought if those three Zombie Lords began their attack, he would have He Jijun start the plane to try to attract one or even two zombies away. After all, facing three four-level zombies at once was too difficult.

But now, having donned this set of Black Iron Heavy Armor, Wang Tao felt he could take on these three zombies!

Roar—

The first to rush over was the Stone Armor Zombie, raising its cauldron-sized fist and hammering down at Wang Tao.

Thump!

[-1129]

[+1000]

It hit Wang Tao for just over a thousand HP, and Wang Tao instantly regained a thousand. The defense of the Black Iron Heavy Armor was indeed strong!

“Is that all?”

Wang Tao immediately raised his flaming longsword and delivered a strike to its skull.

Bang!

[-1182]

[-118]

[…]

“…”

Turns out they were about even.

This Stone Armor Zombie’s defense was absurdly high!

Just then, the Deformed Zombie, bringing a toxic gas with it, rapidly attacked Wang Tao.

Seizing the opportunity, Wang Tao suddenly lifted his leg and kicked it fiercely.

Bang!

The Deformed Zombie got sent back just as quickly as it had approached.

But though it was gone, the toxic gas it left behind lingered, persisting for ten seconds.

Wang Tao was losing over a thousand HP every second, losing over ten thousand in ten seconds! Fortunately, Wang Tao could recover 1000 HP every second, basically neutralizing the effect.

The attack from the obese zombie arrived last; from a distance, it spat out a fireball that expanded to a certain size before heading toward Wang Tao.

Wang Tao took the initiative to attack, confronting the fireball head-on.

Boom!

Wang Tao was engulfed by the surging flames once again.

Hundreds of zombies around him instantly perished, while he himself lost three thousand HP.

Wang Tao immediately unleashed a Shockwave at the obese zombie.

[-3548]

The Flame Zombie had a pretty high defensive power, and the fire damage carried by the Shockwave didn’t affect it much.

The nearby Stone Armor Zombie attacked again. After exchanging a few blows with Wang Tao, each inflicted over a thousand points of damage on the other, neither gaining an advantage.

Wang Tao took the chance to carefully observe, and none of these three zombies had the Blood Regeneration Ability!

Although zombies naturally regenerate HP much faster than humans, it was still different from a professional Blood Regeneration Ability.

Wang Tao suddenly felt that he might actually have a chance to defeat these three Level Four Zombie Lords?

After all, he could regenerate 1000 HP every second with his Starfire Prairie, and Lan Yulian could also heal him. The zombies, lacking powerful Blood Regeneration methods, would eventually be worn down!

Only…

Wang Tao glanced at his own Awakening Energy, and the 300 Energy he had was obviously not enough; now only 100 remained.

“All in!”

Clenching his teeth, Wang Tao directly used his own Advanced Special Energy to exchange for Awakening Energy!

One Advanced Special Energy was equal to 100 Awakening Energy, which meant sustaining Starfire Prairie for 10 seconds.

Wang Tao had 44 Advanced Special Energy!

He had originally planned to save these Advanced Special Energy for the next Awakening, as they could be used to increase the success rate of Awakening.

But now, seeing the possibility of killing these three Zombie Lords, he thought that if he could eliminate them and protect the base’s twenty thousand survivors, then it would be worth it!
