Heroes' Prison

Chapter 184 Homomorphic Competition

"And the reason Yanhuang Legion is still persisting in pursuing the world’s first kill of the Zombie King, despite being at such an obvious disadvantage, is very likely related to this skill! The latest rankings data indicates that Yanhuang Legion has now reduced the third form of the Zombie King to 24% health! They are about to enter the fourth form, and are catching up very quickly! If they can dodge the most ferocious wave of small zombies and increase the number of survivors to over three thousand, then they’ll have a slim chance of catching up for the first kill!"

The author of this post finally started to waver, no longer so certain that Yanhuang Legion definitely couldn’t achieve the first kill!

At this moment, Huang Yi was commanding the Yanhuang Legion, taking the third form of the Zombie King down to 1% health, about to face the third resurrection!

"I declare, Zombie King. Iron Bone—dead!" Huang Yi controlled the output intensity, and right before the Zombie King was about to be killed, he activated Judgment, for the third time pulling the Zombie King into the sky!

Next, just like before, Huang Yi killed the Zombie King, then transformed into White Dragon Form and dodged the small zombies on the ground.

One minute later, the Zombie King resurrected, entering the fourth form, while Huang Yi quickly committed suicide.

The Void Battlefield instantly disappeared, and Huang Yi’s body fell to the ground, where another Redemption Priest emerged from the crowd to combat resurrect him.

"Everyone, continue with the previous strategy, keep attacking this fourth form of the Zombie King. It now has the highest attack power, but the lowest defense and health!" Huang Yi commanded immediately after his resurrection.

Then he, along with Dao Feng and Lin Yiqin, rushed towards the BOSS again.

At this time, the Zombie King had a negative status effect, which meant it would take five times melee damage for 30 seconds. They had used the wrong strategy the previous night, sending all melee fighters to risk their lives attacking the Zombie King, which resulted in bitter consequences. Naturally, Huang Yi wouldn’t make the same mistake again.

Thus, Yanhuang Legion engaged the Zombie King in its fourth form, competing with the Pope Legion’s Angel Legion at the same stage! The situation, which had initially been greatly in their disadvantage, was now largely caught up!

Even more precious was the fact that at this point, Yanhuang Legion still had no casualties, maintaining a 100% survival rate!

...

In the forums, the essential thread that was continuously reporting on this event also updated in real time—

"Unbelievable! After surviving the Zombie King’s third resurrection, Yanhuang Legion still has a survival rate of 100%, with no casualties! The latest rankings data shows that Yanhuang Legion’s Zombie King has reached the fourth form, finally catching up to the Pope Legion’s pace! And the survival rate of Yanhuang Legion is even more terrifying, still at a perfect hundred percent, not a single person has died. This is simply a miracle. When Yanhuang Legion urgently gathered, the Angel Legion had already taken the Zombie King to its second form, holding all the cards, making it impossible for any team to catch up. Yet now, Yanhuang Legion has created a miracle, with a way beyond our understanding, they have bypassed Fist, and with an inexplicable means, maintained a 100% survival rate, killing the Zombie King in three forms, and ultimately competing directly with the Angel Legion in the fourth form. The speed of this catch-up has surpassed our understanding, there’s no reason that can explain all of this, and if we have to give one, it would be divine! A deity has descended upon Yanhuang Legion, enabling them to perform such a series of miracles!"

At this moment, the author of this post was already fervent about Yanhuang Legion, finally starting to take a bias towards Yanhuang Legion: "With divine help, Yanhuang Legion now completely qualifies to compete for the first kill with the Angel Legion! Yanhuang Legion is currently at full capacity with five thousand people, with the highest output, and the fourth form of the Zombie King is most vulnerable, with the lowest health and defense, which can be quickly defeated. At this moment, however, the Angel Legion is left with just over a thousand people, and if they don’t kill the Zombie King soon, it’s very possible they will be caught by Yanhuang Legion, leaving not much time for the Pope!"

Meanwhile, this news also spread rapidly to the real world, with countless people at work or in class starting to pay close attention to this event. From the start of this event to now, the comeback capability displayed by Yanhuang Legion was simply too outrageous, no one knew how they applied such a strategy to chase all the way to the fourth form. Now, no one dared to be one hundred percent certain that the Pope could secure the first kill, the first kill had become elusive and mysterious, and it was uncertain who would ultimately claim it.

...

"Damn it! Those Chinese have already reached the fourth form and have reduced the Zombie King’s health to 93%! What kind of strategy did they use to catch up so quickly?" At this moment, the commander of the Angel Legion was out of Fengdu, cursing anxiously as he was on the verge of madness, attacking while hurling insults and keeping an eye on the Zombie King’s health.

Their Zombie King was now at 43% health, but the number of survivors had dwindled to just 1,323, with their lead advantage almost entirely gone!

And the entire Angel Legion was permeated with an anxious atmosphere, frequent mistakes occurring, with people dying at any moment.

"Billiter, what’s going on with your priest group, can’t even keep the health up? Oh! Damn it! Another thirty-two people dead!" The commander vented toward the leader of a priest group.

"We’ve done our best, but there are too many people taking damage, we can’t keep up!" the group leader defended.

"Can’t keep up, huh? Fine, as of now, you are fired, you are no longer a member of the Angel Legion!"

"Bullshit! You’re the one who can’t command for shit, and you still blame us?" The squad leader immediately flew into a rage too, slamming his Priest’s Staff onto the ground while staring furiously at the commander.

"Shut up, all of you!" At this moment, from the core area of the Angel Legion, the middle-aged man in a black Mage Robe scolded sharply, and the noise from over a thousand people present died down instantly, no longer daring to utter a sound.

The middle-aged man in the black Mage Robe had a solemn expression and a resolute face—he was the founder of the Angel Legion—the Pope.

The Pope looked around and said in a deep voice, "We are still in the lead, and hope is not completely lost, but now, before the enemy has caught up, you’ve already lost your confidence. This is not what I want to see. Last year, we won the Best Team award, we’ve always been the best team in the world! Now, we are facing a huge crisis, and this is the time to show our true strength. Next, I will use that skill, rest assured! Everyone, continue to attack with full force!" After speaking, the Pope vigorously plunged his half of the Magic Wand into the ground, placed his hands in front of his chest, and took a prayerful stance.

"You’ll drop levels by doing that!" At this point, a high-ranking member quickly grabbed the Pope.

"There’s no other way now, we must secure this first kill, we can’t let that group of Chinese catch up. Today, we unexpectedly fought for the Zombie King’s first kill ahead of others, in such a clear leading position, if we are surpassed by their hastily assembled team, the Angel Legion will be ridiculed by the whole world and lose all our dignity. We are not just fighting for the first kill now, we are fighting for our dignity!" Having said this, a resolute look flashed across the Pope’s face as he continued to activate the skill that would cause him to drop levels.

...

"Everyone, give it your all, we are now fully qualified to compete with the Pope and his team for the first kill!"

In stark contrast to the tense and desperate atmosphere of the Angel Legion, the Yanhuang Legion under Huang Yi’s command was filled with fighting spirit and confidence. In such an atmosphere, each member burst forth with operation skills and strength beyond their usual capacity, and with the Zombie King’s fourth form already having low health points and defense, its health dropped rapidly under the attack of five thousand people.

However, this Zombie King’s combat power was also the strongest, deploying Random Skills as if they were nothing, unpredictable and diverse, keeping Huang Yi prepared for massive casualties.

"Corpse Rain!" At that moment, the Zombie King used a Random Skill! This Random Skill had appeared during the previous night’s training and was very powerful.

"Everyone, dodge on your own!" Huang Yi had no way to counter this Random Skill and could only have his team members fend for themselves.

Bodies began to fall from the sky, smashing into the dense crowd, made all the worse since the Yanhuang Legion was at full strength, with people standing close together—making the Corpse Rain all the more devastating!

Finally, the first casualty occurred! Then, one after another, individuals fell, and suddenly, over two hundred people were struck by falling bodies and died where they stood.

"We’re now down to 4,766 people! Up next, the Zombie King will frequently use Random Skills, so everyone be alert. Redemption Priests, prioritize using Combat Resurrection on the fallen Redemption Priests!" Huang Yi reported the casualty numbers and issued commands.

The Redemption Priests quickly sprung into action and began to resurrect their fallen comrades.

"Bones Like Mountains!" The Zombie King unleashed another Random Skill without warning!

Suddenly, another group of members from the Yanhuang Legion perished.

At this stage, it was purely a matter of throwing lives at the problem, with no other effective tactics available.

...

And the Yanhuang Legion’s first casualties were updated in real-time into that pinned post on the forum—

"The myth of being undying is shattered! The Yanhuang Legion finally faces its first wave of casualties! Just moments ago, the leaderboard data showed that the Yanhuang Legion suddenly suffered hundreds of casualties, breaking the myth of their previously perfect survival rate, the Yanhuang Legion has finally become normal! This is what a real legion looks like! Currently, the Yanhuang Legion has reduced the Zombie King’s fourth form’s health to 65%, moving at an impressive speed, and even after losing several hundred people, their output is still very high. In contrast, the Pope’s Angel Legion is still at a progress of only 10%, unable to reduce it further. The gap between the two is quickly narrowing, and it’s estimated that in just a few minutes, the outcome of the first kill will be unveiled..."(To be continued.
