Stronghold In The Apocalypse 171 Demi-Human

Leo pressed the trigger but no bullets came out and so he immediately stored it back into his [Inventory] and pulled his huge broadsword from his back and at the moment he turned around to look at his men, he also saw them finally running out of ammo so he immediately yelled, "Melee!"

"Melee!" the other soldiers also started shouting as they pulled their zhanmadao's out.

While the three boar riders immediately broke off formation and turned around as they stormed forward as they headed back towards the direction of the nearest defensive wall.

*Squeal!* *Squeal!* *Squeal!*

Black, Ham and Bacon issued their own cry and charge forward as the zombies that got in their way either all got thrown out of the way or got trampled on and the Captain's riding on top of them are throwing bombs everywhere, they were like the three Goblin Techies from the "Defense of the Ancients" game, who throws bombs everywhere!

"KILL!"

Leo and the other soldiers charged ahead as they sent a flurry of sword slashes in front of them as the zombies that blocked their paths either got decapitated or slashed into pieces.

They were like a small charging Cavalry amidst the zombie horde and from above, they would look like a group of ants, lost in their journey as they tried to break out from the dangers surrounding them.

But seconds into that, the soldiers following Leo immediately felt the pressure increasing to them as they suddenly noticed that there were more and more mutated zombies pouncing towards them while the ordinary ones are trying to detour around them.

Leo also noticed as he immediately ordered, "Drill Formation!"

""YES!""

They immediately broke formation formed another formation behind Leo.

Leo was on the front of the formation while there other soldiers formed two lines behind him. The soldiers forming the left side line are using their weapons from their left hands while the right line soldiers are using their weapons through their right hands.

They were like a human drill on the road, puncturing through the thick zombie horde as they sliced and diced every zombie that unluckily gets near them.

*Slash!* *Slash!* *Slash!*

[You've leveled up! You're now Level 30! 5 Free Stat points has been rewarded!]

[...]

[You've leveled up! You're now Level 31! 5 Free Stat points has been rewarded!]

Leo had already leveled up twice through this war which made him really ecstatic, so he immediately assigned it to [+5 Agility] and [+5 Stamina]!

*Rumble* *Rumble*

Suddenly from behind them, there were ten battle tanks following them as they trampled over the zombies on their way, just what you'd expect from the King of the Battlefield! Even zombies are incapable of stopping them that even one [The Big One] got trampled to death when it tried to stop the leading tank!

"Sir, the tanks are here!" the soldier behind Leo shouted, immediately grabbing Leo's attention as he immediately glance at the corner as he looked through the [Map].

"Full Charge!" Leo yelled as their formation suddenly went full power!

If earlier, they were like a car running at thirty miles an hour, this time they were like an armored sports car charging at one hundred miles an hour!

Every single one of these elite soldiers could have been considered the elites of the elites if they were in an army before the Apocalypse. It was because they were one of those people who could at least eat mutant beast meat twice a day! Due to that, their bodies had slowly gotten stronger and tougher even Amanda and Michelle had tougher bodies than them!

But the most surprising thing is that Leo didn't give them any of the mutation potions he had gotten before! It was because someone who went through the normal mutation or evolution are stronger than those who had taken the potions based from how Leo had the mutants fought each other before and it had clearly shown that even a person who doesn't have any fighting experience can even beat someone who knows how to fight but had mutated through the use of potions.

Mostly, because mutants who had evolved naturally receives more improvements throughout their bodies, instead of those who had undergone force mutations.

While the soldiers behind Leo constantly swung their swords in systematic motions, Leo instead stored back his sword on his back and crossed his arms in front of him like a charging Rhino as the zombies in his path all got flung a way to the side!

But then suddenly, Leo disabled his helmet as he quickly gathered a large quantity of air onto his mouth as he is about to unleash his [Primal Roar]!

*ROAR!*

"[Primal Roar]!" as Leo immediately released a large quantity of air from his mouth in the form of a tornado-like blast as it shot forward like a stormy wind and it sent all of the zombies on its path flying or dismembered to pieces!

It was so powerful that it created a clear path of carnage of one hundred meters in front of them!

"Full speed ahead!" Leo yelled as the soldiers behind him immediately stopped attacking the zombies and charged forwards like a rampaging charging bull and everything that tried to hinder them got all flung away!

And the tank behind them were even worse as they just trampled upon the zombies that tried to fill the gap in their ranks caused by Leo's [Primal Roar]!

Everyone is busy fighting their own battles, the soldiers are still furiously defending the walls, the tamed mutant beasts are still rampaging on the battlefield. The artillery are still sending their own attacks, assault helicopters are roaming the skies, providing air support.

Everyone had their own duty right now and that even the civilians weren't an exception as their duties are to replenish ammunition to different stations.

The only good thing right now is that they still haven't suffered any casualties as the zombie are slowly getting pushed back as they are still getting suppressed by a hail of gunfire.

But this situation wouldn't last long as the weapons would also need to rest to avoid getting overheated which would certainly decrease their current offensive or fire power.

This is the reason why Leo is bringing the fight to the Dark Seeker, because the sooner that Leo kills it, the better, as the zombie would certainly scatter for a bit and would decrease a bit of their numbers if the one controlling them dies.

*****

"Damn him! Damn it all!!" the Dark Seeker is literally raging this time while watching Leo and his men rampaging towards their direction, that he even tore a [Hunter] Zombie in two's!

*ROAAH!!!*

"You want a fight!? Then a fight it is!" Dark Seeker roared towards the skies as he jumped off from his platform and rushed towards Leo and the rest and the zombies on his path automatically made way for him!

*****

"Halt!" Leo yelled the moment he noticed the Dark Seeker heading towards their direction and then he bashed a zombie's head before looking back to his soldiers who are currently fending off the zombies that's attacking them.

"Retreat and regroup with the tanks!" Leo ordered.

""Yes sir!""

The men didn't hesitate in their reply because they know that time is essence as they also noticed that something powerful is heading towards their direction and they know that they probably wouldn't be of any help if their Commander even ordered them to retreat and go back.

When the soldiers finally retreated for quite a distance, Leo immediately disabled his Armor and yelled, [Beast Form]!"

Leo's body started changing, his whole body started growing bulkier, his nails started to become claws, his hair started growing longer, his ears become that of an animal, his eyes turned golden and his face started becoming more manlier as two sharp black stripes slowly appeared on his face as it slowly extended from just above his chin and stopped just below his eyes.

Leo snappily opened his eyes as a cold flash of glint appeared.

"ROAR!" Leo roared, he looked like a combination of a man and a beast but in simple terms, he looks like a demi human with an origin of a bear. He grown over two meters tall, his body is bulky that he looks like a lean bodybuilder with those six pack and amazing pectoral muscles.

It was a new active ability he gained after his [Bear God Body Strengthening Technique] passed one hundred fifty days!

And the skill name also changed and became [Beast Form]!

He would gain immense strength, faster reflexes etc. but in simpler terms, it was like he had just gained another between 15-20 levels of power after his transformation!

From the wall.

"Looks like hubby had gained another mutant ability" Michelle said while shooting the zombies below them as she could clearly Leo from the distance with her improved eyesight.

"Uhmmm, he's like the god of mutants with how many mutant abilities he has" Amanda agreed from the side as she is also busy shooting down the zombies.

These two pregnant women don't look pregnant at all, with how badass looking they are right now!

And the others who could see the changes of Leo from far away also felt astonished, shocked, disbelief and along with excitement!

*****

"I will kill you, human!" Dark Seeker was just fifty meters away from Leo as it continued storming towards him!

"Come! You scum! You should be honored that you'll be the first one to taste my new ability!" Leo gave a shout of excitement as he also charged forwards.

Twenty meters!

Fifteen meters!

Ten meters!

*Swish* *Swish*

Both Leo and the Dark Seeker jumped at the same time at the ten meter mark, as the Dark Seeker with his right hand raised above its head with brandished claws and Leo is also the same as he had claws ready to unleash!

The scene would have been picture perfect and would've been a great desktop wallpaper, two enemies on the eve of their attacks!

"Die! You monster!"

"I will rip you to pieces, you inferior being!"

It was like the clash of the titans or the clash of century!
