Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle-Chapter 579: Shinja’s Limit
Everyone watched as the black Tyrant Zombie Leader was ready to deliver another devastating blow to the inner wall's defense…
Bullets, arrows, flamethrowers, and even the Energy Wave didn't work after all.
The defenders braced themselves but just as the zombie's fists began to descend, a flash of steel intercepted the attack.
Clank!
The sound of metal meeting flesh resounded across the battlefield as Shinja, the Warlord, arrived.
His twin swords were seen by everyone and immediately recognized the toxic green sheen. There was no doubt it was him…

His presence alone was enough to bring the morale up of everyone defending the walls.
"It's really Shinja!" Gene shouted in excitement.
It couldn't hide that his voice was filled with relief after seeing this very reliable person.
Thud! Thud!
Shinja didn't respond.
He was focused on the Tyrant Zombie Leader as they both dropped to the ground.
After blocking another attack, Shinja activated one of his skills, Blade Dancer.
He didn't need any shield at all since his movements had become extremely unpredictable, covering both offense and defense.
The zombie's fists were certainly heavy, but Shinja was fast… He had obtained a few movement skills after all this time, after all.
"Focused on the weaker Zombies!" Shinja shouted... "I'll handle this."
The defenders didn't need to be told twice. They rearranged their formation and trusted the Warlord who was facing off against the monstrous zombie.
Soon, they saw Shinja's eyes glow with a crimson light as he activated Warlord's Bloodlust.
With this ability, his presence radiated an aura of a beast!
It was violent but filled with power.
The Tyrant Zombie Leader even seemed intelligent enough to hesitate for a moment. Perhaps, its instincts were screaming at it to flee.
But even if it was, it was already too late.
With the use of Armored Dash, Shinja moved forward like an unstoppable machine.
His twin swords were aimed at beheading the Tyrant Zombie Leader.
Shinja showed the might of his Dual Blade Mastery.
It allowed him to kill the Zombie Leader with this move!
His blades easily sliced through the Zombie's neck!
It was a completely one-sided match between the two. However, there were a total of four skills that had been activated when he did that... It also means that the consumption of Spirit Points was huge.
Just by using the same move four or five more times, he would have to immediately take Spirit Stones to replenish his energy.
Nonetheless, the fight continued as more Tyrant Zombies started swarming at him.
However, Shinja was already moving. His Blade Dancer Stance allowed him to become more agile and evade every blow easily even with the Warlord's Bloodlust activated...
As Shinja continued with the battle, instead of getting tired, he was getting more and more precise in his movements. There were almost no wasted movements as he eliminated Zombie after Zombies.
He was getting the hang of it…
His Warlord's blood was truly awakening in this battle!
"Die already!" Shinja growled as he killed another Zombie.
However, the limit of his Warlord's Bloodlust was soon reached.
With another Tyrant Zombie in front of him, Shinja pushed himself with another powerful strike with his Armored Dash activated!
Thanks to his fast reaction, he was able to sever the zombie's arm at the elbow!
The creature roared in pain, but Shinja didn't give it a chance to recover. He leaped into the air using his Five Meter Jump Skill that propelled him high.
Using his own weight and the sharpness of his blade, Shinja had once again sliced through the Tyrant Zombie's neck, decapitating it in one swift motion.
Just like that, another head tumbled to the ground with its lifeless eyes staring blankly at the sky.
At this time, the momentum had already turned to their side. Several arrows were released and bullets were fired as they covered for Shinja who was on the ground outside the inner wall.
Furthermore, seeing that Shinja eliminated a large number of tough Tyrant Zombie Leaders, the defenders erupted into cheers.
Needless to say, their morale soared up as they watched the Warlord standing steadily without a hint of exhaustion… Without a doubt, they knew that Shinja wasn't done yet.
Perhaps, his Spirit Energy was consumed, but he wasn't physically exerted.
Then, after replenishing his Spirit Points, Shijna looked at the advancing towering creatures…
Apparently, there were four more Giant Zombies closing in.
He couldn't help but smile seeing their massive figures crushing everything in their path.
"Four of them… This'll be fun," He muttered as he considered whether to wait for them or just advance forward…
Then, at this time, he felt someone else's aura behind the inner wall.
"I guess that other reinforcements are here. Nothing to worry about."
He no longer hesitated after sensing the presence of the Monks and the others.
He charged toward the nearest Giant Zombie!
The zombie swung its massive arm at him, but Shinja activated Armored Dash Skill…
This was truly Shane's best gift to him.
Just with this skill, his body was akin to something indestructible even for a brief moment. Certainly, it was more than enough to ensure that he could gain an advantage against stronger opponents.
The Armored Dash didn't just improve his movement speed but it also added a way to eliminate his targets.
Furthermore, with Toxicology Expertise and Poison Veins in his Skill Set, it made his blades even deadlier.
After all, the green sheen on his swords wasn't just for show—it was a potent toxin designed to weaken and cripple his enemies. Perfect for Zombies as he had made a toxin that solidifies blood.
This way, the Zombies who still had blood would have their movement staggered with the toxin!
Just like that, with Shinja's poison-coated blades, the Giant Zombies weren't able to move as they pleased. The toxin seeped into their flesh and slowed their movements.
Of course, it was just the start.
The Giant Zombies were huge and the poison couldn't spread that fast. The Zombies were also huge and needed a lot of poison to cover their whole body quickly.
Nonetheless, Shinja knew that he just needed to disable them.
He targeted their Achilles tendons as he hoped that slicing through them with result in something similar to human bodies…
Thankfully, the biology was also quite the same and he just needed to cut deeper due to the size. With his Aura, he was able to extend the reach of this blade…
Boom!
The first Giant ZOmbie collapsed to its knees, and its massive body certainly shook the ground.
"Now, finish it!" Shinja shouted. He didn't even stop moving and just headed toward the next target.
In the meantime, the defenders on the wall didn't need to be told twice.
They opened fire. Soon, their bullets and explosives tore through the weakened Giant Zombie.
No one had time to celebrate as they soon shifted their focus to the Winged Zombies!
The defenses of the Winged Zombies weren't that high. They could be easily killed with just three or so bullets.
However, there were also too many of them, so a large part of the defenders were aiming at the sky while the rest of them, including the turrets, aimed for the Zombies on the ground.
***
As Shinja continued on his onslaught, he soon felt the presence of the Vampires far away from the battlefield. They were hiding their presence really well but their bloodthirst was simply too strong… Even if they weren't physically showing themselves, their intent to drink blood couldn't be hidden.
Some of them were even feeling excited seeing the blood gore on the battlefield.
'I guess that others are waiting for the Vampires as well.' Shinja thought as he realized why some of the reinforcements that had arrived through the Portal weren't moving just yet.
It seemed that Diana was actually baiting the Vampires to attack. After all, they were simply too careful. They would retreat once they realized that they were in trouble.
However, if they confirmed that their targets had nothing to hold on to anymore, they would not hesitate to send all of their forces.
At this time, Shinja activated Titan's Roar Skill!
"Come at me, you overgrown corpse!"
The Giant Zombies and the others were, of course, not intelligent enough to know about his provocation, however, they focused on Shinja alone and their instinct to eat flesh and brains intensified…
They had to eat him!
The others were immediately killed by bullets and arrows but the Giant Zombie was tough. It turned its head onto Shinja.
'This will be the last Giant Zombie… I need to retreat after this.' Shinja thought as he couldn't allow himself to be strained a lot or once the Vampire attacked, he would be a burden.
However, another idea popped out in his mind… Perhaps, it was also his best chance to lure the Vampires out!
As the zombie closed the distance, Shinja activated the Blade Storm Technique once again.
This technique would use his swords to become a whirlwind that could cut through the zombie's body even if it was an Armored one.
Thud!
As he killed the last Giant Zombie, Shinja looked extremely weakened and started to run back to the cover of the inner wall.
Even the defenders on the wall could tell that Shinja had already reached his limit!
