Chapter 173 - Second Wave
Dump!
Tang Shaoyang landed safely with Kang Xue in his embrace. She immediately hopped off and took out her scythe from her inventory. Gripping the scythe tightly, \'I will kill more ogres,\'
Meanwhile, Wei Xi and Captain Cao lead their team outside. The two teams united as one and formed a formation around the gate. They formed half-square, Wei Xi and his team became the frontline while the military filled the flank, leaving no space for the ogres to enter.
Wei Xi listened to Captain Cao\'s concern about his subordinates that lacked Stamina. In the first wave, a lot of his subordinates were exhausted, and Wei Xi could see that during the lunch. So he proposed an idea to form this formation to help the soldiers.
Captain Cao was so grateful for the help, but then he heard the young man next to Wei Xi spoke something, "Are you sure about this, can we trust them?"
"Hehe, not like we have another choice but to trust them like earlier in the afternoon. The beforehand battle should be enough for us to trust them, right?"
That was Wei Xi\'s reply to the young man. Captain Cao heard everything, he gripped his spear tightly. If it was before, Captain Cao would be angry that a brat like him dared to look down on him and his subordinates but no longer now.
He had heard everything that these people had experienced during the disaster. Facing zombie hordes, not just one but two, and each of them was thousands of zombies.
—They may not be trained like you guys, but they have experienced blood, losing their comrades in battle, and even almost lost their lives in the battle. Despite all of that, you guys soldiers acted cocky in front of them, so they don\'t treat you guys unfriendly or even hostile, I wish you understand that
That was what Wei Xi told him, the guy was telling him what they had experienced. On top of all that, Wei Xi kept praising one man, their leader.
—Do you believe me if my leader is someone who\'s crazy enough to block thousands of zombies alone to buy his subordinate time for the preparation? That man has done that
Wei Xi\'s laugh that full of admiration rang in his head, \'Hah, I believe that,\' Captain Cao thought to himself while chuckling inwardly as he looked at the man who rushed toward the red monsters\' crowd with his girlfriend.
"Captain! I can\'t bear it any longer, let me fight that brat," his subordinate next to him whispered while eyeing Yan Sheng.
"Huhu, why fight him? What you need is to prove to the young man that he was wrong. Our enemy is not him, but those red monsters!" Captain Cao chuckled in return.
Meanwhile, Kang Xue was following her man to charge at the crowd of the monster, \'If it\'s before, I would call him lunatic, but now myself is excited to fight these monsters. His madness contagious for sure,\' she chuckled inwardly while keeping her pace with him.
As soon as she was in range, she immediately cast [Basic Detection] on a few ogres, \'Nah, they are still the same stage-1 monster,\'
Soon, the two clashed against the ogres, two ogres\' heads popped out as blood scattered around. She witnessed her man\'s red clubs crushed the head, \'I will not lose this time,\' she swung her scythe and sliced the ogre\'s neck, \'First blood!\'
Three ogres came from the other side, trying to hit her with their club, but she ducked her head and avoided the club. She slashed their legs, causing the three ogres to fall. She took the newly bought spear from the Equipment Shop and struck the head with her free hands. She repeated the same move three times before storing the spear back in her inventory.
Kang Xue then moved closer to Tang Shaoyang, slashing her scythe to two ogres that were about to jump over to attack Tang Shaoyang. Another two ogres down by her scythe. Her view\'s range was her man and his back, she would avoid and counter or took the initiative to attack the closest ogre.
Sometimes, her back was hit by the ogre, but her steel armor reduced the impact, giving her slight pain.

Ten minutes into the battle, she heard notification. A smile crept out her lips, she opened her status screen. She allocated her attribute points into Stamina and Strength.
Tang Shaoyang advanced as he killed the ogres, they did not stay as they walked through the ogre crowd to their backline. While fighting the ogres, Kang Xue heard his voice spoke to her, "Be careful, stage-2 ogres with a class is ahead,"
Kang Xue glanced to the front, she saw around fifty ogres with a bigger build rushed toward them in a group. Her eased expression turned pensive but fear could not be seen in her eyes.
"I am ready anytime," Kang Xue replied, "Then get ready, we are pushing forward," Tang Shaoyang threw the red club away as a big battle-ax appeared in his hand. With a big swing of his battle, the path in front of them cleared.
While Tang Shaoyang took care of most of the stage-2, he let one stage-2 Ogre Warrior slip. The stage-2 ogre was faster than the stage-1 ogre, but she quickly reacted by blocking the red club, putting her scythe horizontally.
"Urghh," she grunted, the strike was stronger than she expected. But she managed to push the club, pushing the ogre a few steps back. At this moment, she released her grip on the scythe and took out her spear, and thrust the spear to the ogre\'s throat.
The spears pierced the throat, but the ogre did not fall. It tried to pull the spear while standing still. She immediately picked the scythe up and pierced the ogre\'s neck with her scythe. The scythe\'s blade pierced the neck through to the other side, but the ogre did not die immediately. It was struggling to pull the scythe after throwing her spear.
Kang Xue immediately picked up the spear and pushed the spear to the chest. She pinned the ogre down before it could pull her scythe. Even after the chest pierced by the spear, the ogre still struggled frantically. She reached the scythe and pulled it off forcefully from the neck.
Even with its neck torn apart, the stage-2 ogre did not die immediately. It struggled for a while before it died.
[You have leveled up!]
[You gained 2 attribute points!]
[You can allocate the attribute point by opening the status screen!]
She heard the beautiful toneless voice, \'No wonder he would only let me face one at a time,\'
After she finished the first stage-2 ogre, Tang Shaoyang let one stage-2 ogre slip again.
"Hah, come!" She stored the spear back in her inventory while rushing forward to the stage-2 ogre with her scythe.
The second wave lasted an hour longer than the first wave. The battle lasted for four hours, not only stage-2 included in the second wave but the number of the stage-1 ogre also increased.
