Before the laughter died down, a piece of passionate and spirited background music suddenly played.
“When the fiery smoke rises I look at the vast land towards the north.”
“The roaring of the dragons and neighing of the horses are echoed by the chilling sword.”
“My heart is as boundless as the water of the yellow river.”
“Who could challenge the power in the past twenty years.”
“…”
The music sounded, and everyone’s hearts were ignited with the flames of passion.
Singer Tu Honggang’s voice was bright and passionate, bringing people back to the times of the Great Song.
The image of them rushing through the battlefield with their lives on the line appeared in their minds.
The beautiful melody combined with the powerful lyrics of the song rendered all excessive descriptions useless.
If it was possible, Lin Ye was willing to replace the feeling with three words.
Burn it up!
Yes and burn it did.
Everyone had three fires in their lives.
The hot-blooded fire of a youth’s self-searching, the mature and explosive fire of a person in their prime, and the burning fire in an elderly’s old heart!
These three fires encompassed a person’s entire life. They were hot, long – the nirvana of one’s life.
In an instant, Jiang Gong, Dong Wei, Wang Qiang, and Lin Ye all stood up excitedly.
“It’s here, it’s here. This is the feeling. Hahaha, my youth has returned!”
Dong Wei laughed out loud. As he recorded with his Civilization Archive, he feverishly instructed the others to assist him.
When the song reached its impassioned chorus, he waved his hand decisively.
“Sound the drums!”
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The urgent drumming and singing blended with each other perfectly.
Every note and lyrics were like the streams of an invisible force of morality, deeply shaking and inspiring everyone’s hearts.
Even for these soldiers who had never heard this song and did not understand the meaning of the lyrics,
At this moment, they could not help but have a solemn expression. The drum beats drummed in their hearts, their blood pumped rapidly and passion soared.
The cavalry soldiers mounted their horses and sat upright in their beast saddles. The infantry soldiers let out powerful cheers.
“Awesome, this is awesome!”
Dong Wei was grinning from ear to ear. In the end, he even turned his head to look at Lin Ye and called out, “My lord, it’s time for you to go on stage. Don’t say too much, the simpler the better. The atmosphere has already reached its peak. With a single order from you, the ‘main’ of the video will be confirmed.”
“That’s simple, watch me perform.” Lin Ye gave an OK sign. With the help of Zhang Bao’er and Chu Meng, he put on the Purple Star Armor that Lin Dachui had repaired and Level 2 Lord’s Skin. He looked like a god of war that had galloped onto a battlefield when he ascended the platform with a determined expression.
Thump! Thump!
His footsteps were steady as he followed the beat of the drum. Every step he took was like a drumbeat striking at one’s heart, attracting everyone’s attention.
“Wow! The lord is so handsome!”
In the camp, chef Nicole’s eyes twinkled like a fan watching her idol.
Looking at her lord’s exceptional beauty, she felt like she had drifted into a country of delicacies. She was so happy that she almost fainted.
“I feel that he looks even more powerful and domineering than Lu Xiaobu from the City of Wargods. Every action he makes is deeply rooted in the hearts of people. I wonder how outstanding the future mistress has to be worthy of such an excellent lord.” Adelia’s face flushed red as she sighed.
“Shallow!”
Not far away, Light Priest Gran chuckled as he looked at Nicole and Adelia. He stroked his beard in satisfaction.
Although he couldn’t understand it, he could roughly sense that Lin Ye and the others were trying to stir something up.
The lord was the most important.
Sure enough, in the next moment, Lin Ye’s words shook them.
“Warriors, why have your families been hiding underground for generations!” Lin Ye shouted.
“Zombies, these damned zombies!” The soldiers below the stage had bloodshot eyes.
Under the influence of the song, scenes of their ancestors being brutally killed by zombies flashed through their minds one after another.
In the end, they gave up their home in humiliation and hid in the underworld.
Every time they thought of their sad past, the thousands of native soldiers, including Tru, who had already advanced to the Class 4, Luo Feng, Su Yu, and Xu Que, the three main combatants, all responded with their hoarse voices.
“That’s right. Zombies have harmed countless generations of humans and underworld citizens. They are the source of all sins. I don’t care about others, but for my Lin Clan soldiers…”
At this point, Lin Ye paused, Heart’s Web activating to its limit.
Boom!
An invisible wave of the talent spread to everyone.
At this moment, in everyone’s eyes.
He was like a god that had descended to this world. His determined eyes seemed to be able to see through the root of one’s heart and guide everyone to have the same mindset as him.
After a long time, his voice went from low to high until it reached its climax.
“Whenever—We—See—Zombies, We Will Annihilate Them!!!”
With that, he took out his Class 3 Purple Tier Weapon, Desert Eagle, and secretly activated the special skill of the Level 2 Lord’s Skin—Flying Meteor.
Bang—
The gunshot was loud and clear. The next moment, the bullet seemed to have transformed into a meteor the size of a millstone and soared into the sky. It drew a long tongue of flame in the air and finally exploded at an area where the zombies were gathered at.
Rumble!!!
A mushroom-shaped cloud rose up as a deafening explosion echoed through the air.
The sound wave swept across like the roar of a thunder god and the sad wail of an evil ghost combined, shocking the world.
There was a short silence. Every soldier was dumbfounded as if stunned by the flying meteor.
Fortunately, Tru and the others had strong wills and quickly came back to their senses.
With a fanatical expression, Tru led, “Annihilate Them!”
In an instant, the soldiers below seemed to be infected by a virus. Their faces flushed red as they shouted at the top of their lungs.
“Annihilate Them!!”
“Annihilate Them!!”
“Annihilate Them!!!”
Their roaring chants were like a wave that spread in all directions.
During this time, it also caused the many high-level zombies in the zombie wave at the Haunted House far to the north to let out angry roars at the provocation of mere mortals.
[Congratulations to Survivor Lin Ye. All your new recruits have felt their burning passion and their loyalty has increased to 82%! The destructive power of Battle Formation has increased by 22%!]
[Congratulations to Survivor Lin Ye. All your new recruits have felt your strength and their loyalty has increased to 95%! The destructive power of Battle Formation has increased by 35%!]
Lin Ye smiled when he heard the system’s good news.
What an unexpected gain.
Loyalty was almost 100%.
Mm, Ah Wei was a good lad with a good brain on his shoulders.
This move could win the hearts of people and shoot videos to gain likes. Killing two birds with one stone. Perfect!
He would be rewarded with a drumstick after work.
He looked at Dong Wei and the latter immediately gave him a thumbs up, indicating that the video shoot was fine.
“Let’s go!”
Lin Ye didn’t waste his breath when he saw this, and he directly leaped onto the Earth Wolf and shouted loudly.
Although the Wind Wolf was stronger, in terms of survivability,
the giant earth wolf was more sturdy.
He was the lord, not a soldier who would charge into the enemy lines. Having him at the rear of the army was already a form of professionalism.
Whoosh—
The 3,000 plus soldiers followed the instructions and turned into a long stretch that followed behind the wolf cavalry in an orderly manner, kicking up sand as they marched.
At the same time, the human lords who were hiding within the protective barrier in the range of a dozen kilometers were alerted.
They all walked out of their territory.
They looked at the area where Lin Ye’s territory was and was astonished.
What… what kind of a strong person was this? He actually dared to challenge the haunted houses in the north!
In less than ten seconds, someone sent a screenshot taken by the Civilization Archive to China’s chat group.
In an instant, the chat room exploded.
However, the focus of the human lords was off.
What they cared about was not the sentence ‘Annihilate Them’, but the terrifying power of Flying Meteor.
Li Qiang: “Oh my god, is this the legendary Grandmaster Class combatant big shot? How terrifying!”
Lin Hai: “Who knows who the big shot who released the bomb in the photo is? I offer 10 million RMB. I want to form an alliance with him!”
Qian Bocong: “RMB? Heh heh, if it’s useful, I’ll pay 1 billion or even 10 billion but what the f*ck use is that? This is a different world. Wake up! What a bunch of idiots! If you have time to lick the big shot’s boots, why don’t you think about how to survive tonight?”
Liu Xiaoye: “Wow, f*ck, National Husband, Husband Bocong, I’m your fan. Can you form an alliance with me? This girl can be both sweet and handsome…”
Lu Fei: “Person above, appraisal completed.”
Zhang Bairen: “Transgenders are humans too, don’t discriminate against them. But speaking of which, comparing ourselves to others will kill us. I’m still building the barracks, and they can already use advanced cannons. There’s no logic in this!”
…
Liu Tianlong: “What’s going on? Where’s the person who just sent the screenshot? Where did he go? Stop hiding. Come out and talk!”
On the other side, a human lord had just built a bunker, tent, and barracks in a small graveyard.
His face was pale and he was sweating profusely as he stared at the entrance of his territory..
