1157 The World Of Sand
The moment the jumper passed through the light curtain, I opened my channel and opened his own feed subchannel.
There I saw a world slightly different from ours. It was a world filled with sand, looking like a grand desert or something.
The entire world around me was empty. Only storms of sand appeared all over the place. I even saw one huge sand tornado moving away at the horizon.
“Lucky bastard,” I muttered when I saw this, “the world you selected is void of danger and enemies.”
If I wasn’t sure that the portal opened in a random world at a random location, I’d doubt that jumper to know the nature of the world it went to invade before taking these bold steps of his.
Just when I was about to close the channel and start opening another world portal, something new developed in the world the jumper ventured at.
The first batch of his forces arrived, scattered over a large area over the world of sand. Just as the first batches appeared, something different happened at the sand world.
I couldn’t hear much of what was happening out there, but I knew there were loud bangs as many places covered in sand changed and showed what explosions would cause out there.
The ground shook, and many fountains of sand appeared from different places. At others, mushroom looking sand clouds appeared without a warning.
I didn’t know what happened, but I was sure this wasn’t normal. I focused and saw a few shadows appearing from the zones that showed such changes.
When I looked closer, I got to see strange shaped creatures, running on four, covered all over with dense sand clouds.
p-a- n-d-a-n-0-v-e-l、(c)om When these weird looking things appeared closer, I could see their shapes clearly.
“Zombies!” They were zombies, different from the ones we were fighting all this time in our world.
The jumper was in the middle of all this. So the moment changes happened, he didn’t wait to see what was coming.
He knew one way or another, the ones coming at him were enemies and not friends.
His timely response saved the lives of his soldiers without doubt. When zombies appeared in their weird shapes, it was already close to the jumper and his forces.
As the jumper gave orders to prepare their defences at a good moment, the zombies couldn’t do anything to them at first.
The first waves of enemies weren’t that much. Only their weird appearances and the way they came to attack the jumper and his forces were the only risky factor they faced.
Aside from that, the strength of these zombies was limited without doubt.
The jumper led his forces to crash over the incoming zombies. He held his ground better and didn’t give any room for the zombies to bring him or his men lots of trouble.
Seeing this made me wonder how he was this unlucky each time I gave him an army to lead. Every single time, no matter who his enemy was, he ended up losing most of his forces.
If he was this experienced and capable, then why did he suck this bad before? Or wasn’t he even trying his best before?
I couldn’t tell, to be honest.
Just as the early waves came to harass the jumper, more started to come from the distant regions.
The feed I got was limited by the vision of the jumper. So I switched over and checked the live feed I got from the portal itself.
This time, I could see the world as a whole. Taking the portal as a centre, I could see an area surrounding it for hundreds of miles.
And when I saw this region, I was shocked to see all this area starting to shake and tremble, showing off dense heaps of zombies coming at the jumper without any pause.
An area expanded for hundreds of miles was filled only with zombies and without any safe route outside. This was insane!
I couldn’t see any towns or cities, not a single sign of any civilisation at all. This made me crazy, and I wondered what was going to happen to the jumper.
Wait, was this dude the bringer of bad luck or what? He acted perfectly fine, but he ended up in such a scary situation that was enough to take away most of his forces.
Even if he was a genius, he wouldn’t be able to save most of his forces this way.
“All the armies with the jumper… Move forward and join the brutal fight!” as I recognised the level of danger and the nature of threat this dude was going to face, I hurriedly gave orders to all the generals in his expedition group.
“Did he pump into Hescos?” Lily was holding her breath, seemingly expecting the worst.
But even if he was matched up with Hescos, I knew this wasn’t going to be as bad as the current situation he was facing.
Appearing in the middle of such gigantic den of zombies? And I couldn’t tell anything about the place or extent of this den? This was quite scary.
The only good piece of news here was the level of these zombies. They weren’t that high levelled, making the task of killing them not that hard to achieve.
But considering the huge area the zombies were coming from, the jumper and his forces were going to have it bad without doubt.
Alone such a task wasn’t going to be done at all. Even the jumper might have killed himself.
That was why I gave the order for other forces and generals to start moving out.
“No, he found himself in the middle of a huge zombie den,” I said, not keeping my voice low. I wanted everyone to know what they were pumping themselves into before heading there.
“Are they high levelled zombies?” one of the generals going to aid the jumper asked.
“No, they are weak, but they seem endless!” I knew giving them false hope wasn’t going to work.
