Chapter 328 All Eliminated
Chapter 328 All Eliminated
"Sir, there are more and more zombies, and the communication system is down. We can't contact headquarters."
"Pass down the order: no retreat is permitted; hold the line to the death."
"We can't let these zombies breach the city." Jin Guo's tone was serious, but thinking of Jiang He and his group, he seemed to have a glimmer of hope again.
“Recruit militia. Take Aye to ask these people if they are willing to be the city defenders. After this batch of zombies is over, I will apply to the organization for them to receive merits.”
"Yes, sir."
The soldier raised his hand in salute.
He knew, in fact, that there were too many zombies.
But he was really unwilling to give up just like that.
His comrades were clearing out zombies inside the city, but if the zombies on the bridge broke through, their clearing efforts would be meaningless.
Jiang He stood at the bridgehead, and with each bullet fired from the gun barrel, a zombie fell down.
Zhu Yi's arm, which was holding the machine gun, was aching. After firing this round, his ammunition was almost gone.
All the cultivators stopped paying attention to the leaderboard; they were unaware of the consequences of the city falling and the mission failing.
But in Jiang He's heart, the city absolutely could not be breached by zombies, otherwise none of them would survive. With so many zombies, even if they could escape, it would be meaningless.
The final mission must continue. The best-case scenario is to hold off this wave of zombies and then slowly complete the last mission.
Everyone was exceptionally focused.
Jiang He and Wan Qiziye, along with other cultivators, were conscripted by the city's armed forces, and each of them was given a gun.
With ammunition no longer a concern, Jiang He and his men increased their firepower and managed to hold the city.
However, Jiang He knew that the next wave of cities would probably not be so easy to defend.
She stared at Shiroichi, who was lost in thought.
The last time the college entrance examination stone tablet mentioned Chinese history, Bai Zhizhou clearly knew more than they did.
Unexpected events occurred, first the system, then a significant increase in the number of zombies.
Jiang He wearily wondered if she had missed any clues, otherwise, given the current final task, it would be almost impossible to complete.
Jiang He carefully compared the names and figures of the cultivators in the instance. Before she could think, another wave of zombies, stretching as far as the eye could see, surged across the bridge.
"What? Another batch has arrived? We just finished dealing with them, damn it."
Zhong Liyu's arm ached from holding the gun for too long.
"What will happen if we fail to complete the city defense mission? Should we just give up? I'm exhausted."
Zhong Liyu thought to herself in despair.
Jiang He lowered her head:
"The city must be defended. Rule Two and the system mission's ultimate goal are both to protect the city's inhabitants. If the city falls, more zombies will enter and spread the virus. Mission failure is one possibility, but it would also most likely violate Rule Two." Jiang He raised her head, her gaze sharp as she stared at the approaching zombie horde.
"And violating the rules..."
"I will die." Zhong Liyu's lips turned pale.
"Understood. We must defend the city. If the city falls, everyone will most likely be eliminated."
Jiang He: "Based on the speculation, that's one way to put it."
Zhong Liyu: "Damn it, this is just a trap for us."
Thinking about her upcoming situation, Zhong Liyu became somewhat pessimistic:
"How can we fight this? The zombie horde keeps coming. I even suspect that the entire city next door has been turned into a zombie apocalypse. We can't fight them, and if we don't fight, we'll die anyway. Either way, we're going to die."
As the number of zombies increased, the live stream gradually took on a tragic and poignant tone.
[Is what Jiang He said true or false? If the city isn't defended, everyone will die?]
This is the worst possible outcome: elimination for violating the rules. We've all seen it before. The only thing we can be sure of is that rules really can kill.
But that doesn't make sense. There are over a thousand cultivators in the instance. If they're all eliminated, the Academy Competition will be over in a little while. Besides, I see that all the top-scoring individuals on the leaderboard are from the instance. If they're really eliminated, the Academy Rankings will be completely reshuffled.
:! That's right, the "Zombie Siege" hidden dungeon is unlocked by closing the gate, right? I remember it being one of the supplies in the hidden compartment of the supply crate in the second phase.
The dungeon is now directly accessible? I feel like the loot at the second phase loot point is a complete joke.
Indeed, this is the first time I've seen a dungeon where everyone dies if the mission isn't completed. Is this dungeon very difficult? Is anyone interested?
Even if you don't see the hidden dungeon difficulty level, and rank them by difficulty from F to S, this dungeon definitely belongs to S-rank.
Adding to the difficulty, the cultivators entering the instance have no idea who else is there. They have to find the other cultivators among a group of NPCs right from the start, and then find the hidden zombies among the completely transformed cultivators. It's too difficult.
Yeah, the rules and tasks are so restrictive, it's almost hopeless for me, it's so hard to break through.
Wanqi Ziye, please don't get eliminated! I also bet on Ling Qing. Most of the cultivators from Ling Qing Academy are in the instance too. If they're all eliminated, our first place will be in jeopardy.
Sigh, defending the city is so hard. We just finished fighting one wave of zombies, and now another one is coming. It's never-ending.
I don't know what the developers were thinking this year. This level of difficulty is completely unsuitable for college students. If it were a sect competition, where everyone's combat power is high, they might be able to break through.
Not necessarily. Even cultivators who enter the sect competition have to start cultivating from scratch. The important thing is cultivation level. Many cultivators who enter the dungeon don't have spiritual roots, so they can't cultivate. If they had spiritual roots and spiritual energy, they could fight these zombies with spells and sword techniques. Apart from a few who have reached the Qi Refining stage, everyone is actually just an ordinary person.
Oh dear, this is my first time watching a live stream of the University Competition, and I really don't want everyone to get wiped out, sob sob sob.

Yu Quanjing came over and happened to overhear Zhong Liyu and Jiang He's conversation.
She silently watched Wanqi Ziye across from her. No wonder Wanqi Ziye, like them, had united so many cultivators to defend the city:
Is there really no other way?
Yu Quanjing sighed again and again. If they were all eliminated in this instance, by the end of the competition, they would not only become a laughing stock, but it would feel like all their academies would be finished.
"Yes, yes."
As soon as Jiang He finished speaking, all the cultivators surrounding her looked over.
