My 100th Rebirth a day before the Apocalypse novel Chapter 563

They’d also strike with precision, aiming for the zombies’ limbs until their knuckles were crushed, forcing the creatures to release their grip.

This approach allowed them to conserve their spiritual energy, avoiding unnecessary overuse while still effectively neutralizing the threat.

Seeing the effectiveness of this strategy, the others who had been resting quickly followed suit.

They grabbed whatever they could find—makeshift weapons or tools—to ensure the zombies couldn’t breach the truck.

Those zombies that came at them from the sides only managed to scrape along the armored truck, and whenever they tried to latch onto anything, the vehicle simply passed over them, leaving them to stumble and fall or get caught under the truck’s massive tires.

Each passenger secured themselves to the truck, tying their waist to any available hook, bracing themselves for the jolting movements and sudden bumps.

Despite the instability, the precautions ensured that no one would accidentally be thrown off the truck during the chaos.

All of this was inspired by what they saw Vulture do, and the others quickly realized the importance of securing themselves inside the truck.

They were now sitting close to the edge, and every sudden shake—from collisions or when a zombie was run over—could easily send them flying off.

If someone fell, they would be surrounded by zombies before anyone could react, leading to a disastrous outcome.

Even with the best intentions, no one could reach a fallen person fast enough to save them from being devoured alive.

To prevent any accidents, everyone secured themselves by tying a rope around their waist and fastening the other end inside the truck.

This allowed them to confidently fight at the edge without the fear of falling off. With their minds at ease, they could focus on the battle without restraint.

"Man, I’m almost out of spiritual energy. Let’s switch!" One of the men at the edge called out to the rest.

The two inside, hearing the request, immediately stood up, took their positions at the edge, and unleashed wind blades that sliced through zombies, severing their heads with surgical precision.

"Oh! I can feel my ability becoming easier to use and stronger—looks like I’m about to level up!" the man said with excitement, launching more attacks with renewed energy. The battle raged on, stretching longer as they neared the wall.

When Vulture’s truck was spotted by the sniper atop the watchtower, the alert was immediately sent to the gatekeeper.

Soldiers swiftly took their positions, and once the truck entered firing range, they began providing cover.

Meanwhile, the warriors held their ground, waiting for the zombies to come within range of their awakened abilities.

Once the time was right, they conjured their powers and unleashed devastating attacks into the air, targeting the advancing horde.

Everyone was so absorbed in the battle that they didn’t realize one of Vulture’s trucks was missing.

However, with the soldiers’ assistance, Vulture successfully entered the gate without incident.

As the massive door closed behind them, the soldiers and superhumans continued to battle the remaining zombies outside, drawn to the base by the convoy’s arrival.

While the warriors and soldiers focused on eliminating the threat, the Scarlet Bees quickly went to work, collecting crystal cores from the fallen zombies that was too far from the gate.

This allowed the warriors to remain within the safety around the gates while their other comrades keep watch over them, avoiding the need to venture too far beyond the walls to secure the valuable cores after the fight.

The moment Vulture’s truck passed through the gates, he leaped out without waiting for it to come to a full stop.
