Li's eyes narrowed.
He immediately rushed back to the watchtower, grabbed the radio, and informed Shane and the army members.
Then, he used 'Loudspeaker' to warn the people still active in the pasture.
Only after systematically completing these tasks did Li have time to look at Shawn.
When he clearly saw the expression on Shawn's face, Li was stunned for half a second.
Facing a Walker horde of this magnitude, Shawn's face showed no fear at all; instead, he seemed… excited?
Shawn was a bit excited at this moment.
He had waited for several days, originally thinking the Walker horde wouldn't come again, but he didn't expect to run into one early this morning.
'These are all experience points!'
Shawn couldn't help but rub his hands.
He didn't even bother with Shane and the others, picking up his Crescent Blade and directly opening the gate to charge out.
His movements were so fast that Li only reacted belatedly.
He slapped his forehead in frustration: "Shawn charged out alone again."
"Hey, why did I say 'again'?"
"…"
By the time Shawn charged to the front of the Walker horde, they had already stepped onto the concrete ground.
The wolf pack retreated step by step under the threat of the Walker horde.
The Head Wolf's bright orange eyes were full of coldness; it could smell the decaying aura spreading from the Walkers.
But it didn't seem to understand why these strange people always faced its threat without any fear, not even pausing their advance.
Just as it felt puzzled, a figure, fast to the point of blurring, brushed past it and the wolf pack.
Facing the Walker horde, Shawn advanced instead of retreating.
The Crescent Blade in his hand, wielded with wide, sweeping motions, gleamed with cold light; compared to the brute force of a great hammer, the Crescent Blade was more suitable for the current situation.
Taking three steps in two, Shawn's posture was as agile as a leopard, and his momentum as powerful as a fierce tiger!
The sheer force of his sudden leap seemed to instantly drown out the low growls coming from the Walker horde!
The blade was held horizontally in front of him, striking at the Walkers' heads!
A flash of blade light, and the several Walkers at the very front had half their heads severed in an instant!
Damage numerical calculation + head critical hit!
These ordinary Walkers had no chance whatsoever against Shawn, who had survived multiple life-and-death crises and been tempered by Mutated Corpse hordes.
The only pressure they could exert on Shawn was probably their almost endless numbers.
Shawn plunged into the Walker horde, slaying relentlessly!
The blood of the Walkers stained Shawn's body, growing thicker and thicker.
If the Walker horde hadn't turned to surround Shawn, who was wielding his Crescent Blade, a normal person might have struggled to tell him apart from the Walkers.
And even when surrounded, the Walker horde couldn't get within 2 meters of Shawn.
At this moment, Shawn was practically a god of slaughter, completely different from before!
However, the Walker horde was endless. After a bout of killing to satisfy his inner craving, Shawn tapped his toes for leverage, spun around, and pushed his Crescent Blade horizontally into the chests of the surrounding Walker horde.
He exerted force with both arms, like a bulldozer, actually pushing about 20 Walkers backward, causing them to crash directly into the Electric Barrier.
The electric arcs flickered faintly a few times, shocking them into contorted limbs, temporarily lying on the ground, trembling slightly, unable to move.
Shawn turned around, retreated to outside the Prison gate, and maintaining a safe distance, reached behind him.
With one fluid motion, a tactical assault rifle flipped with its sling, landing perfectly in Shawn's hands.
Shawn deftly took off the safety, adopted the tactical shooting stance Shane taught him during training, and began to spray bullets at the distant Walkers!
Thanks to Damage Numerical Calculation, Shawn didn't need to aim specifically for the head to kill Walkers.
Under the amplification of 'Gunner,' a single 7.62 bullet could reliably take down a Walker.
Just as Shawn was changing magazines, gunshots rang out from above, and a rapid series of footsteps came from behind him as well.
Shane and the army had arrived.
Even though it was early morning and they were still groggy, they still rushed to the main gate Fully Armed in the shortest possible time.
With the army's participation, the speed of eliminating the Walker horde significantly increased.
Soon, a pile of corpses lay on the concrete ground, and the smell of gunpowder wafted from countless spent bullet casings.
Shawn glanced at them with 'Blood Bar MOD'; the names that had been floating within the Walker horde earlier had now disappeared.
Clearly, The Whisperers who had drawn this Walker horde had quietly slipped away, taking advantage of the chaos.
But Shawn wasn't worried; their disguise couldn't fool him, and without a vehicle nearby, they couldn't get far.
After cooperating with Shane and the others to eliminate this wave of Walkers, a golden light suddenly radiated from Shawn's body, combined with the Walker blood covering him, making him look quite extraordinary.

The Walker horde had allowed Shawn to gain three levels!
It was just a pity that Shawn hadn't eliminated this entire Walker horde by himself; otherwise, the experience points would likely have increased even more.
After collecting the spoils of war, the body bags dropped by the Walker horde, Shawn took the towel Beth handed him, wiped the blood from his chin, and looked at Shane.
"Daryl and his group know the forest better; have them get ready to move immediately. You all cooperate with them."
"What's wrong?" Shane put away his firearm, a bit confused.
"The Whisperers were among those Walkers just now, but they quietly slipped away when they saw me coming."
Shawn said this with a hint of helplessness.
He had originally thought that The Whisperers wouldn't give up easily and would try to ambush him while he was surrounded by Walkers.
He hadn't expected that because Shawn had been killing with such fervor and his demeanor was so ruthless, he had simply scared them away.
"For now, that's it. You…"
But before Shawn could finish speaking, he saw the Head Wolf, who had been hiding with its pack, looking over.
While the wolf pack's fur was bristling with fear from the firearms, and they were full of trepidation.
The Head Wolf, however, brought its two capable subordinates and walked towards Shawn.
"Woof woof—"
As the two parties drew closer, one of the Coyote subordinates next to the Head Wolf let out a threatening growl from its throat.
But before it could howl, it was suddenly nudged by the Head Wolf beside it.
The Coyote subordinate's aggression vanished completely, and after a blink, its eyes instantly became much clearer.
It licked its tongue, instinctively swallowing.
Its gaze shifted sideways, meeting the Head Wolf's head pressed against its cheek.
The Coyote subordinate still couldn't withstand the pressure, its ears flattening backward into 'airplane ears.'
Its head slowly lowered, its originally defiant eyes now holding a hint of trepidation.
When its head touched the ground, it rolled over towards the Head Wolf, exposing its clean belly.
The Head Wolf placed a paw on the Coyote subordinate's chest, only then forgiving its earlier rudeness.
After doing all this, the Head Wolf slowly approached Shawn.
Its beast eyes met Shawn's, and after a howl, it sneezed at Shawn.
"What does it mean?"
Shawn was a bit puzzled, glancing at Shane, Guillermo, Kenny, and the others beside him; they all had the same expression.
Then the Head Wolf lifted its head, sniffed, turned, and ran past the piled-up Walker corpses towards the distant forest.
When it was far away, it specifically looked back at Shawn, as if waiting.
"It wants you to follow it."
A low, distinctive voice came, and turning around, it was Daryl.
"Perhaps it can lead you to The Whisperers."
As he passed Shawn, Daryl emphasized.
"Also, when it sneezed at you just now, it was basically calling you a stinky idiot, asking why you can't even catch a prey."
After speaking, Daryl raised his hands: "It said that, not me."
