At dawn, the battle began. The Wolf Fang Regiment members, working in seamless coordination, launched a fierce offensive. As they lured in and eliminated wave after wave of zombies, the regiment's overall strength continued to rise.

He Feng immediately issued an order. "Prepare the new weapons!"
Swish, swish, swish!
At once, every holder of a new weapon readied themselves, and
