"Kill!" In the stairwell of the apartment building, the fighting was underway.

Ten Swadian Footmen were at the front, even in the narrow stairwell, thrusting forward with the Spears in their hands.

Using the light from the Torches, they pressed forward with the Spears in their hands, pushing down floor by floor towards the first floor!

No Undead Monster could withstand the charge of these Swadian Footmen.

In the confined space, the two-meter-long Spears, standard issue in the Kingdom of Swadia, were used with great ease.

These Swadian Footmen formed ranks of four, paired with five Swadian Militia behind them, also holding Spears, forming ranks of three. Step by step, steadily and surely, they used the Spears and Lances in their hands, these long-handled weapons, to stab to death any Undead Monster that dared to block their path!

A Pike Square set up at the front, even Swadian Knights fully clad in heavy chainmail or plate armor, including their horses, would not dare to charge head-on.

Even if they could break through the Pike Square.

They would still suffer casualties.

Moreover, what about these Zombies and Skeletons, which have little intelligence, little combat power, and can only bully ordinary Blue Star people?

Almost instantly.

The sharp points of the Spears and Lances directly pierced the vital points of these Zombies or Skeletons.

They directly sent these Undead Monsters, which should have completely decayed in the graveyard, back to the realm of the dead!

In just over 20 minutes, they had already reached the stairwell on the first floor.

They saw the main hall of the apartment building!

Whoosh!

Shen Mu raised another new Torch.

The flame flickered.

In the entrance hall of the apartment building, nearly 20 Skeletons or Zombies were swaying and turning around.

The eerie blue light from the soul fire flickered in the eyes of the Skeletons or Zombies, carrying a fear of burning energy that could be vaguely detected even in the dark night, making one's soul slightly cold.

And a chill that even Shen Mu, who was wearing a cotton robe inside, could feel.

A chill from the soul level!

"Kill!" But Shen Mu didn't care at all, pointing the Germanic Sword in his hand forward.

Ten Swadian Footmen and five Swadian Militia once again raised the long-handled weapons in their hands, whether Spears or Lances, leveling them forward, marching in neat steps, shoulder to shoulder, pressing forward together!

Clack clack

The Skeletons raised the thigh bones or decayed weapons in their hands one after another, and began to slowly gather towards this side to attack.

Including those limping, slower-moving, and inherently stiff Zombies, they also stretched out their hands and walked over with movements as if trying to strangle someone.

Then they were crushed to death on the spot by these soldiers of the Kingdom of Swadia in an instant.

They were directly reduced to scattered bones and shattered corpses all over the ground!

After leaving the stairwell.

In the entrance hall of this apartment building, these Undead Monsters couldn't even stop Shen Mu and the others from advancing quickly!

Or rather.

Why did it take 20 minutes to come down from the seventh floor?

It was entirely because the narrow and steep stairs required these Swadian soldiers to descend slowly!

"The Immigration and the new soldiers are outside!"

At this moment, Shen Mu's Germanic Sword directly chopped a approaching Skeleton into pieces, and looking at the dark outside of the apartment building, he vaguely heard bursts of shouting and killing coming from the Gray Fog outside.

He naturally knew that it was the sound of those Immigration and soldiers fighting with the Undead Monsters!

It seemed that the battle had entered a fierce stage!

"Switch weapons!"

Shen Mu gave the order: "Use Germanic Swords and Shields, and follow me closely!"

Then Shen Mu held a Torch in his left hand, tightly gripped the Germanic Sword in his right hand, and led his subordinates, who had thrown away their Spears and Lances without hesitation and followed him closely, holding Shields in their left hands and Germanic Swords and Pointed Hoes in their right hands, rushing out of the apartment building.

Outside the apartment building was an empty green square.

There used to be a fountain and green plants.

But now, the fountain had long become a sewage pool, and the green plants had grown crooked due to not being trimmed for years.

More Undead Skeletons and Zombies were slowly moving among them.

Sensing that Shen Mu and the others had rushed out of the apartment building.

One by one, they seemed to sense the aura of living people, and the eerie blue soul fire in their eye sockets immediately burned brightly.

Then they swayed and limped, and began to surge towards Shen Mu and the others.

There were many of them.

Shen Mu just raised the Torch in his hand, dispelling the thick Gray Fog, and vaguely saw dense eerie blue soul fire flickering in the Gray Fog about ten meters away.

In just one encounter, there were likely hundreds of Undead Monsters around!

"No wonder the wilderness in the dark is an absolute taboo."

Shen Mu thought of his past memories.

But there was no fear on his face.

He raised the Germanic Sword in his hand and cut off half the head of an approaching Skeleton.

These decayed Skeletons couldn't withstand the slashes of the sharp and hard Germanic Sword at all.

Including the Swadian Footmen around him who were similarly equipped, they had been seasoned on the battlefields of Calradia. Facing these slow, staggering enemies was no different from hitting targets in a training ground!

Therefore, following Shen Mu, the Skeletons and Zombies blocking the way were almost cut down in one encounter.

They couldn't stop their advance at all!

"The entrance to the residential area is less than a hundred meters to the left."

Shen Mu was very familiar with this residential area.

The four apartment buildings were in four directions.

The main entrance marked by the Mount & Blade System was about 80 meters to the left of his apartment building.

At this time, the Gray Fog was thick, making it difficult to see clearly.

But based on the impression he had when he came to this residential area before, plus the direction already marked by the Mount & Blade System in Shen Mu's eyes.

So he knew very clearly the location of those Immigrants and soldiers!

"Kill! Kill! Block them!"

"Long live the Lake Rats!"

Shen Mu walked sixty to seventy meters, and faint torchlight appeared ahead, along with hoarse shouts.

When he led the team closer again.

He found that outside the iron gate of the residential area, more than 20 Swadians wearing worn-out cloth robes and holding pitchforks or wooden sticks were gathered together, resisting the encirclement of swarms of Skeletons and Zombies.

On the outer perimeter were 10 strong young men wearing belted leather jackets, holding Fan Shields in their left hands and small bladed axes in their right, with 8 short fishing darts on their backs. They were fighting fiercely with the nimble small bladed axes in their hands.

There were already many bodies of Skeletons and Zombies at their feet, and with every swing of the small bladed axe, an Undead Creature had its skull shattered.

Their combat power looked quite formidable!

"Over there!"

Shen Mu immediately led the team over and joined this group of people.

"Is that Lord Shen Mu!?"

"It's Lord Shen Mu!"

Then the faces of this group of new Immigrants and new soldiers immediately changed from the previous solemnity to excitement and joy.

"It's me!"

Shen Mu responded, and at the same time waved for the Footmen and Militia behind him to rush over and protect the farmers from the Kingdom of Swadia behind them first.

Shen Mu walked over quickly.

Looking at the temporary bonfire that had been lit on the road with worn-out clothes among these new Immigrants, both men and women, he also nodded slightly.

These Immigrants had stumbled upon something useful.

With a bonfire, they could dispel the thick Gray Fog and effectively weaken the combat power of those Undead Monsters.

This was also why this group of people could hold on for so long.

"Follow me closely, it's time to leave." Shen Mu also knew that gathering a large number of people in the dark was not a good thing.

This would cause a special reaction from the Necromantic Rules.

More, more ferocious Undead Monsters would descend into the surrounding darkness, making the situation more complicated and dangerous.

Now was not the time to linger in battle.

"Let's go!" The new Immigrants and the newcomers from the Lake Rats also immediately followed Shen Mu.

Then, under the escort of 15 Swadian soldiers, they began to return to the apartment building where Shen Mu had previously lived.

However, Shen Mu, who was walking at the very front and slashing with his Germanic Sword, his expression changed slightly.

"Wait!" Shen Mu raised his hand, signaling the team to stop advancing.

"Something's happening!" The Swadian Footmen also raised their Fan Shields one after another, looking nervously ahead.

Because in the apartment building they had come from, fierce low growls were appearing ahead.

At the same time, figures about 1.7 to 1.8 meters tall also quietly appeared in the darkness at the end of the torchlight.

As the torchlight flickered.

Occasionally, light dispelled the darkness and Gray Fog.

One could also vaguely see that inside, terrifying Undead Creatures with grayish-white skin, resembling humans but with huge claws on their hands, were standing there coldly.

Their eye sockets held cold, emotionless soul fires, filled with intense hatred for the living, and they let out low growls.

"Ghouls." Shen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly.

Of course, he recognized these undead creatures, which possessed immense strength and formidable combat power, but he hadn't expected them to appear here.

"Is it true that the more people there are, the more attention they receive from the Necromantic Rules?" Shen Mu thought of the legend that had been circulating for a long time now.

However, there was no fear on Shen Mu's face.

Instead, his mind directly communicated with the system.

He immediately used the item he had just obtained—

[Item: Kingdom of Rhodoks Top Shooting Competition]!
