Unlike the busyness of the entire Xin'an City, Ye Feng lived a very peaceful life. He had almost never left the room these two days.

With Ye Feng's efforts, the amount of second-level evolutionary meat he refined finally exceeded 333 pieces and successfully entered the middle stage of the second-level.

Of course, Ye Feng is not the only one who broke through, but also Sun Xue and Xu Youcai, who were mainly trained by Ye Feng.

Sun Xue had reached the late stage of the second level in the previous few days. In the remaining two days, she also successfully broke through to the third level with the help of Ye Feng.

As for helping Xu Youcai break through to the third level, it will be even easier.

Xu Youcai's talent is 8.1 piece of supernatural meat. Now that he has sufficient supernatural meat, even without Ye Feng's help, he can break through in at most eight days.

With Ye Feng's help, Xu Youcai could break through a whole big level in one day.

Of course, Ye Feng would not do this, because the breakthrough was too fast, and Xu Youcai could not adapt to the surge in energy in his body, which would have a lot of impact on his future breakthrough at higher levels.

So when Ye Feng helped these people break through, he only allowed them to upgrade to a small level every day so that everyone could understand the changes in the energy in their bodies at each stage.

On the evening of the second day after Ye Feng made a deposit, Peng De finally arrived at Ye Feng's residence.

In the living room, Zhou Hui prepared tea for Ye Feng and Peng De, and then stepped out.

"Now the corpse tide has reached the Luohu area. At their speed of progress, we may officially fight each other tomorrow morning." Peng De took a sip of black tea and spoke with a serious expression.

"Oh, what level has the number of corpse tides reached now?" Ye Feng also took a sip of black tea and asked with a calm expression.

After hearing Ye Feng’s question, Peng De’s expression became even more solemn.

"As you predicted before, according to the data we detected at high altitudes, the number of corpse tides has reached 2.3 million."

"If he gathered all the zombies on the way, then when both sides encountered each other tomorrow, the number of zombies would be as high as 2.5 million." Speaking of the number 2.5 million, Peng De's mouth felt a little bitter.

Although they have begun to increase their troops one after another, the entire Xin'an City base has only about 8,000 troops.

With a battle of 8,000 to 2.5 million, even a veteran like him, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Because if you want to win, every soldier on their side will have to kill at least 300 zombies before it can be done.

However, is this possible?

"Is it 2.5 million?" Ye Feng gently stroked his chin, "So if you say that, the current strength of the mutant zombie king should be in the middle stage of the second level like me."

Although the mutated zombie king can control zombies on a large scale, it also has a limit.

First-level mutated zombies can control 1 million zombies. At the early stage of the second-level, this number can soar to 2 million.

If it is 2.5 million, then the mutated zombie king should be in the middle stage of the second level.

Otherwise, if he reaches the late stage of the second level, he should have accumulated the corpse tide to about 2.6 million before he will come.

When Peng De saw Ye Feng's face was still normal when he heard this number, his nervous heart seemed to be infected and calmed down a lot.

"Okay, you don't have to worry too much. Your mission is not to annihilate these zombies, but to delay as much as possible."

"What's more, even if we really can't delay it, at worst we'll just escape Xin'an City and go to Xia City just like before." Ye Feng smiled and patted his shoulder.

When Peng De heard that Ye Feng had even thought about the retreat, his worries were immediately reduced by half.

"Do you know? I feel that the most correct decision I have made since the end of the world is to give me my position to you. Otherwise, if I were facing such a situation alone, I would have to wait to die." A rare smile appeared on Peng De's face.

"Haha, don't belittle yourself. If you didn't command the war, I'm afraid I'd be overwhelmed."

"Since there will be a big battle tomorrow, you can have a good sleep tonight! I don't know how long this battle will last." Ye Feng also teased.

"Haha, it's okay. My old bones have been alive since I ate the mutant beast meat you gave me. I feel like I'm now comparable to my 20s. It's okay to stay for two or three days without sleeping." Peng De said with a laugh.

If the only thing that made him feel happy in the end of the world might be the change in his body. Although he had only eaten mutant beast meat for a few days, the wrinkles on his face had been much less.

Peng De talked with Ye Feng for a while before going back. When he left, Zhou Hui was surprised to find that Peng De was worried when he came, but there was a faint smile on his lips when he left.

Peng De came here in person, which was equivalent to giving Ye Feng a wake-up call.

It reminded Ye Feng that it was only the early stage of the apocalypse. Even the nerves of an old soldier like Peng De could not withstand such pressure, let alone ordinary survivors.

So that night, Ye Feng brought up this matter while having dinner.

"Uncle Sun, Xu Wenjie, when the corpse tide comes tomorrow, you must maintain good order and must not panic the survivors in Xin'an City."

"Otherwise, the supplies in the rear cannot be replenished, and the troops in front of them will definitely have big problems." Ye Feng said with a serious expression.

After hearing Ye Feng say this, Sun Zhengxiang and Xu Wenjie nodded seriously.

On that night, all the senior officials who learned how terrifying the corpse tide were, couldn't sleep.

However, time will not stop because of anyone.

...

The next morning, a team of soldiers patrolling in the suburbs suddenly felt a slight tremor on the ground.

"What's going on? Is there an earthquake?" a soldier said in surprise.

"It shouldn't be. Do you feel the frequency of vibrations are curious, one by one, just like a person walking." The soldiers beside him showed a look of confusion on their faces.

When he heard the conversation between the two soldiers, the captain who led the team suddenly changed his face.

He immediately picked up the telescope hanging in front of him and looked into the distance.

When he saw it, he felt his scalp numb. On the streets in the distance, there were dense groups of corpses, and the zombies were walking in this direction step by step.

This is not just a street, nor is it two or three.
