Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle-Chapter 1047: Reinforcement

As Raze said this, the Vanguards fired plasma blasts, vaporizing chunks of the Rot King’s flesh...

Specifications: Shoulder‑Mounted Plasma Launcher and Missile Pods

Special Features: Scorched Earth Protocol - detonates all munitions for a last‑resort zone wipe. ]

Slowly, the Rot King and the ones behind it, began to fall, their aura fading as their bodies collapsed.

But then the ground shook again.

The Zombie Lords were finally starting to move.

Varak the Chain Warden attacked with rusted chains, dragging defenders from the walls.

One chain wrapped around a turret, ripping it free and hurling it into the battlefield!

Jura the Plague Matron exhaled a cloud of toxins, infecting both zombies and defenders alike!

Then, Yor the Hungry devoured corpses of Zombie Kings, and it was growing larger with each bite...

This action stunned many of the defenders who had never seen anything like it.

Then, Syth the Shadow Reaper moved at the Phantom Mechs first since they were the closest ones!

Syth attacked from unseen angles.

Finally, Dreth the Rot Sovereign spread decay across the ground, turning stone into dust beneath the defenders’ feet.

Boom! Boom!

Soon, a huge part of the outer wall was destroyed! Even the Barrier that was just activated had immediately collapsed after their combined attacks!

The defenders had no choice but to abandon their post and retreat!

"Focus on the Kings first!" Raze shouted. "We hold the Lords until backup arrives!"

Apparently, after more than an hour of scouting in the area, Arial of the New Genesis Shelter had confirmed that there weren’t any sieges or attacks aimed at their shelter.

Because of that, Arial arranged a group of people to be sent to either Springriver Manor or Eclipse Domain that was being attacked by the various Clans affiliated with the Overlord Clan.

In the meantime, the mechs obeyed Raze’s instruction.

The Juggernauts pushed forward, their cannons suppressing the remaining Walker Kings. One Juggernaut activated Rampage Mode, its strength tripling as it tore through three zombies in seconds.

Special Features: Rampage Mode - temporary 300% strength boost, but risks meltdown after 90 seconds. ]

The pilot gritted her teeth, knowing the system would overheat soon, but she had no choice.

The Vanguards provided cover fire, plasma blasts vaporizing clusters of undead...

Soon, one Vanguard launched a Scorched Earth strike, detonating its missile pods in a massive explosion that cleared dozens of zombies at once.

The pilot’s mech staggered from the recoil, but the battlefield opened up.

"Follow up! Kill them!"

The Phantoms hunted stragglers with their wires slicing through the last Walker Kings.

[ AEGIS‑03 Phantom ]

Type: Stealth Mech

Role: Flanking and Sabotage

Specifications: Camouflage Cloak, Monofilament Wires

Special Features: Ghost Walk - advanced stealth mode, nearly undetectable in low light conditions. ]

One Phantom managed to flank Yor the Hungry, stabbing wires into its side.

"Aaaarrgghh!"

The Lord roared, swiping at the mech, but the Phantom vanished into camouflage before it could be caught.

On the walls, the retreating defenders fought desperately. Snipers targeted the Lords, trying to slow them down. Ballistae fired massive bolts into Varak’s chains, pinning them briefly.

Turrets tracked Jura, unleashing fire into her diseased body.

But the Lords weren’t easy opponents.

Varak dragged a Juggernaut across the battlefield, slamming it into the ground.

Jura’s toxins spread wider, forcing defenders to retreat behind protective wards.

Yor devoured another corpse, growing stronger.

Syth appeared behind a Vanguard, slashing into its armor before retreating again.

Then, Dreth’s aura spread, rusting weapons and weakening defenses.

"We’re getting there!" Raze shouted again. "Just hold on!"

The mechs fought harder.

One Juggernaut slammed its pile bunker into Varak’s chest, forcing the Lord back.

A Vanguard fired plasma directly into Jura’s face, burning away her diseased flesh. At the same time, a Phantom managed to entangle Syth briefly, wires holding the Lord in place before snapping.

It was getting desperate!

At this time, a Reaper Mech that was just deployed used twin plasma blades and leapt into the fray, slicing into Yor’s arm.

"Kill"

The Lord roared, pushing it back...

The defenders cheered as their morale surged again.

But the Lords were not defeated. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Varak’s chains whipped out again, dragging another mech.

Soon, more and more mechs were getting destroyed or damaged...

The casualties were starting to pile up!

Jura then spread more toxins, while Yor moved forward, devouring a fallen zombie king to recover...

The battle raged on, every second bought by the mechs and defenders.

Still, Layla, already exhausted, prepared her knives again. Spirit Stones surrounded her, feeding her Spirit Points. This time, the bags came from Raze herself.

Soon, she raised her hands, and silver blades formed once more. Their number had dwindled a lot, but they were still threatening at this point.

"Support the mechs!" she shouted.

***

In the meantime, inside the portal hall of Springriver Manor, a wave of energy pulsed outward.

The portal was being used.

From the portal stepped Klara, the auburn-haired woman who had once been rescued from the Mystic Mirage Clan.

Her presence was immediately recognized by guards inside the portal hall. She was the one with the Rare‑Grade Elemental Manipulation Talent, a talent that could bend fire, water, and stone to her will.

Behind her came more figures, survivors and fighters from New Genesis Shelter.

Some carried weapons, others bore scars from previous battles, but all of them had answered the call for aid. Yet Klara was clearly at the front, showing that she was the leader of this group.

Then, Klara’s radio rang...

"Klara!" Raze’s voice carried through the comms.

"You made it!"

Klara nodded...

"What’s the situation? We brought the new weapons... It’s still untested so..."

Raze laughed after hearing this. She knew very well that these new weapons weren’t just made by the Hybrids that Shane had rescued. They were also made with the help of Cloud, Shane’s Super A.I., which was also the brain of all the Warden Units!

"That’s fine! I’m sure it will work somehow..."
