Chapter 410: The Hidden Truth Of Gangnam
[Some Minutes Ago.][Edge Of Gangbuk.]
[Banpo Bridge.]
Once a beautiful landmark that entertained tourists with its rainbow fountains, Banpo Bridge was now a grim, blackened chokepoint suspended over the dark waters of the Han River. It was the only viable path left between the shattered districts of Seoul, and it was currently swarming with the undead.
"We must defend this bridge, No matter the cost!!" The Commander of the protectors yelled, landing heavily before the stunned Soldiers and cracking the asphalt.
"Yes!"
The other two ladies nodded, their expressions hardening as they landed swiftly behind him, their eyes fixed on the horde of mutated zombies running towards them from the bridge. The stench of rotting flesh was suffocating.
"They should be in thousands." The mage, Xinyi, muttered, calculating the grim odds as volatile purple lightnings started emanating from her hands, casting an eerie glow over her pale face.
"Why don’t we just destroy the Banpo Bridge? That way, we will separate the two districts." The lady with the sword stated, and pointed her gleaming blade at the turbulent Han River:
"We are still safe because there aren’t any monsters that can swing. So we should use this opportunity, destroy the bridge, and buy ourselves some time. Once we get our defenses up, we will find a way to the other side." She explained, her mind entirely focused on preserving the surviving stronghold.
The Commander lightly shook his head, his eyes reflecting the burning fires of the distant ruins: "Out of the 27 bridges, this is the last bridge still standing. Not only that, The Leader specifically told us to protect it, not destroy it." He said, picking up his massive sledgehammer with a heavy sigh.
"How can we do that, with so many zombies? We will surely damage this bridge if a battle breaks out." The mage yelled at him, frustrated by the suicidal nobility of the order.
