Chapter 51 - Endless Army

Inevitably, zombies approached them from behind, making it impossible if they needed to retreat.

Hafen pushed them back with water from his elemental katana.

Stark shot through multiple zombies with his laser elemental pistol.

In an instant, threatening huge zombies loomed closer.

Matteo alerted that there were more zombies.

The huge zombie groaned and slammed Stark.

Stark stopped him and stabbed him in the gut.

Vines flowed out of the elemental great sword and wrapped around the huge zombie.

Just then, another zombie scratched Stark's back.

Stark swung around and slammed the huge zombie into the zombie that scratched him. After that, he swung to a horde of zombies.

Simultaneously, vines sprouted out of the ground, wrapped around the zombies, and pulled them together.

The huge zombie flew out, and he was launched to the restrained crowd of zombies.

The crowd of zombies was knocked down.

At the same time, Hafen and Matteo were surrounded.

Zombies closed in on them from all sides.

Matteo gulped and glanced at his older brother.

The two of them were back-to-back.

Stark joined them.

The three brothers raised their elemental swords, and they glowed.

Stark slammed his elemental great sword into the ground.

A shockwave of energy blasted the nearby zombies.

As the zombies got up, Hafen created a field of electricity that zapped them.

Next, Matteo spun around and threw massive flames.

The zombies were set on fire.

Hafen, Matteo, and Stark were exhausted, and there were still hundreds of zombies. They gritted their teeth, and they readied themselves.

After the flames subsided, a huge zombie pounced towards them.

The three brothers rolled out of the way, but they were separated.

The huge zombie snarled and turned to Hafen. He scowled and groaned. His rotten teeth were showing.

Hafen was disgusted. He winced and covered his nose.

The huge zombie stomped closer and glared down at him. He raised his hand and brought it down to squash him.

Hafen dove out of the way.

Instantly, the debris crashed into him.

Hafen dropped his gun and rolled on the ground.

Another huge zombie leaped and crushed him into the ground.

Hafen cried out in pain.

The two huge zombies snickered.

In the meantime, Stark panted and remarked that the zombies were never-ending. Each time he killed one, two more lunged at him.

Stark kneeled on one knee and glared at them. He tightly gripped his elemental great sword, and he remembered his father's training.

Henry urged that Stark had to maintain his composure.

Now, Stark would become the strongest, so he would not die, yet. He saw an opening in the attacks. He concentrated his strength, and he unleashed all of it in his next move. 

A zombie lunged with a claw swipe.

Another zombie threw a kick.

Stark deflected. He twirled around and slammed the elemental great sword into a group of zombies. He swung, and a large vine came out of the sword and pushed them away.

The zombies were launched back into their peers.

Stark was astonished. He had never been able to use his elemental sword like that. He weakly smiled. He gasped for breath and struggled to stand.

Double more zombies emerged behind the zombies that were launched.

Stark was overwhelmed by the endless hordes of zombies. 

Meanwhile, a huge zombie threw Matteo to the ground.

Matteo flipped back to his feet and wiped his blood from his face. He was surrounded. He glanced around and wondered what his older brothers were doing.

There was no time. 

Matteo spun the barrel of his elemental gun and pointed it at the looming zombies.

Lava shot out and landed on the ground. It created a puddle of lava.

A couple of zombies, led by the huge zombie, were clueless, and they stomped on the puddle. Their legs melted. They were confused. They groaned in pain and tried to free themselves.

The other zombies groaned that they were dumb.

Matteo threw rocks at the lava and dispersed it, burning anything nearby.

The zombies, incapacitated, laid on the ground, yet they were still alive.

The huge zombie muttered that Matteo spared them.

Matteo nodded and asserted that he was not a killer like them.

A horde of zombies approached with guns.

The leader commanded them to shoot. He held a shotgun.

Matteo smirked and bolted.

Bullets were shot at him. Some grazed his legs and arms.

Matteo lunged his elemental rapier, and bullets of fire emerged from its tip, counteracting the bullets from the zombies. He sat behind cover.

The zombie leader raised an eyebrow and complimented his maneuvers. He noted that Matteo was the fastest human he had seen.

Matteo stopped and took a moment to breathe. He nodded and thanked him.

A subordinate zombie reminded that they were not supposed to kill them.

The zombie leader nodded and commanded the horde of zombies to restrain him.

Matteo gulped and looked up.

Zombies jumped on him.

Matteo was knocked down. He struggled and demanded to be released. He was pinned on the ground.

The zombie leader laughed and pointed out that Zombie Queen would love to eat him. He grabbed Matteo's head and lifted him.

Matteo clenched his teeth, and his vision blurred. He swiftly stabbed the zombie leader in the stomach with his elemental rapier.

The zombie leader grunted and aimed his shotgun. He fired. He was engulfed in flames, and he fell to the ground. His subordinates helped him.

Matteo barely stood and leaned forward. Blood gushed out of his gunshot wounds. His elemental gun was on the ground. He had lost grip of it. He closed his eyes and reached for his elemental gun, but he was too weak.

The zombies were enraged. One of them fired. The others followed suit.

Matteo closed his eyes and thought about his brothers. He dropped to his knees, and he was shot multiple times.

The zombies stopped.

A zombie kicked Matteo to the ground.

The zombie leader got up with burns throughout his body. His skin had melted, and he was furious. He demanded to know what happened. He saw Matteo on the ground. He approached him with a shotgun.

Matteo was shot.

The zombie leader shot his fellow zombies with the spread of bullets. He ordered his subordinates to grab him.

As the zombies dragged him, Matteo could not resist.

Zombie Queen observed the battle between the three brothers and her army of zombies.

A zombie was consumed by vines. Its limbs stretched, and the zombie was torn apart.

The crowd of zombies were shocked and groaned in horror.

Stark emerged from the crowd. He wiped his blood from his face. He limped with a determined expression.

Zombie Queen glared at him. She questioned who he was and why was he so determined. She commanded the zombies to bring him to her. She wanted to see the determination in his eyes in their probable last moments. 

The crowd of zombies surrounded him.

Stark was exhausted, but his heart was filled with courage and strength.

The crowd of zombie leaped at him.

Zombie Queen was curious on how the three brothers learned to fight. She recognized their elemental weapons. Then, she recalled her battle with Marcus.

Zombie Queen realized that he had trained the three brothers. She chuckled and pointed out that it did not matter. She knew that their defeat was inevitable. She alleged that she was in control.

Her zombie race was unstoppable...

Zombie Queen sighed and remarked that she was not like the ancients who would turn on their own people. She stared at the three brothers.

Should she have them join her? Should she just eat them? Zombie Queen grinned at the thought. She enjoyed eating humans. Their screams were like music to her ears, but there were some that joined her cause. Her thoughts were disrupted when she sensed another presence in the room.
