Chapter Summaries

Chu Han’s Wolf Fang Regiment crushed Jianyi Base in a ten-round contest, winning seven matches and a wager of fifty thousand Reforging Coins. When Chu Han urged his exhausted soldiers to relax, they mistook his words for a trap and spent the next day analyzing a nonexistent Hidden Mission.

• Lu Yi refused Chu Han’s request to replace Xu Feng, and Xu Feng knocked Jianyi Base’s contestant unconscious with his presence alone.
• The ten matches ended with Wolf Fang winning seven to three, and Lu Yi paid the fifty-thousand-Reforging-Coin wager.
• Chu Han told the Wolf Fang Regiment to enjoy a day of rest at Jianyi Base, but Gu Liangchen and the others suspected it was a misleading clue.
• Jianyi Base’s leaders sent scouts to watch the regiment’s training, while the Wolf Fang soldiers stayed inside analyzing Chu Han’s words all day.

Chu Han formed a fifty-member shooting squad and led the Wolf Fang Regiment toward Anluo City after three months of training. Just before they reached the city, Lei She reported that enemy forces had been spotted, and Chu Han ordered the regiment to prepare for battle.

• Chu Han announced a shooting squad, appointed Chen Shaoye its captain, and selected fifty soldiers to train with sniper rifles.

• Chu Han and the Wolf Fang Regiment ended their detour and headed toward Anluo City as their three-month training period neared its end.
• Lei She rushed back to report enemy forces ahead, and Chu Han ordered him to rest before giving a detailed report while the others erased their traces and prepared for battle.

Lei She reported that over twenty thousand zombies and more than two hundred heteroids were closing in near Anluo City, leaving Chu Han to choose whether the Wolf Fang Regiment would retreat or fight. He explained that retreat would expose the Wolf Fang Base to attack, while fighting could cost the still-training recruits their lives.

• Gu Liangchen watched Chu Han’s strategy turn the battle around and felt deep admiration for him.

Chu Han’s forces nearly wiped out the first ten-thousand-zombie horde using coordinated circular attacks, but Lei She reported that another horde and a fast-moving mutant squad were approaching.

• Li Bifeng hurled his broken sword into a charging Tier 5 zombie, crushed its head with his fists, and advanced to Tier 6.

• Chu Han and Xu Feng slaughtered the second battlefield's zombies as Li Bifeng rampaged through Tier 5 zombies on the third battlefield.
• The survivors reduced the remaining zombie force to a few hundred, and Chu Han ordered them to lead the horde toward the main battlefield.

After defeating the zombie horde, Chu Han led the Wolf Fang Regiment toward the main battlefield, leaving tracks and corpses to make their withdrawal look like a rout and lure the mutants into the trap. The shooting squad reported that the traps were ready, while the soldiers' anger at Chu Han's injuries drove their cohesion to a peak.

• Chu Han ordered the troops to withdraw with the remaining low-tier zombies while the Feather Slayer Squad finished off the high-tier zombies and caught up.
