CHAPTER 318: CHAPTER 317: AFTER THE ATTACKS OF THE BIRDS 2

However, it seemed that their endurance in battle still needed to be trained.

When they were outside the base, they had also fought a lot of zombies and other threats. Sometimes, those zombies would keep coming one after another, so they had already experienced fighting for extended periods.

But whenever they were outside the base, the number of people with them was usually larger and not just the eight of them like yesterday.

So, they always had enough people to support each other. When someone got tired or ran out of energy, the others could take over while they rested.

And outside, they didn’t have any qualms about running away when they saw more zombies than they could handle.

However, this time, they were the ones protecting the base they lived in, so they couldn’t run away and they had no choice but to keep fighting those birds continuously.

He had also chosen to bring only a few people with him because the others weren’t skilled enough to properly fight the birds without getting overwhelmed or seriously injured.

So, the battle against the birds yesterday was really a test of their endurance. They had to keep fighting even when their energy was depleted, using weapons while replenishing their power with zombie crystals.

Even though they worked hard to keep fighting for as long as possible, they still couldn’t overcome their exhaustion and had to rest from time to time.

Even he, Zam, and Myla, who were stronger than the others, still had to take breaks, even if not as frequently.

So it was obvious that their training wasn’t enough yet.

The situation they faced yesterday had a high chance of happening again in the future. It might even happen often, especially as those animals continued to grow stronger.

With how strong those birds had become, it wasn’t unusual for them to treat humans as part of their food chain at all.

And since there were already zombie animals, bird zombies would certainly appear in the future.

A lot of people were injured because of the bird attack yesterday, and even many members of the team had suffered some injuries.

It was still manageable since they were fighting mutant and normal birds, but if they had to face zombie birds, then a lot more people would probably die due to infection. Those who became zombies would certainly attack others, and the number of casualties would multiply.

It could even be said that they were lucky that the first aerial attack on the base had been from mutant birds and not zombie birds.

If zombie birds had been the ones to attack first, the north base might have already fallen.

Some people would surely survive, and Treyton was confident that he would be among them if such a situation happened, but he wasn’t sure if all of his team members or his relatives would survive.

So, they were still fortunate to have faced mutant and normal birds instead of zombie birds.

At least with the experience of battling against the birds, the base would now be more prepared in the future.

But even though the base hadn’t fallen, it had still suffered greatly this time, so in the next few days, people would probably be busy dealing with the aftermath.

Their team also had to postpone their plan of going out of the base since they needed time to rest, and those who were injured had to recover.

So instead of going out this morning as planned, they would leave after a few days.

Well, they could also use the next few days to train more. And when they do go out, it’s better if everyone is trained to fight continuously for a long time so they won’t have problems facing relentless attacks in the future.

Of course, aside from that, they should all improve their own strength so that they could handle fighting on their own.

They were indeed a team, and almost all the time they worked with other members to fight or do other things. But accidents could always happen, so it was better for all of them if they could fight independently without any problems.

After Treyton and the others finished their coffee, the rest finally started coming downstairs.

It was obvious from their faces that they were still tired.

After a while, they had breakfast as usual, without Luciel, since he still wasn’t awake. It’s really rare for Luciel to join them for breakfast, as he mostly wakes up very late.

Of course, if they really needed to do something very early, then he could still wake Luciel up.

After breakfast, Treyton informed all of them that they would go out of the base five days later for their mission instead of leaving today.

He didn’t give them too many instructions about what to do in the coming days because even without him saying anything, the others would surely train themselves more diligently.

So, he only mentioned that they should also train on how to deal with enemies that could fly, like those that had attacked the base.

As for training everyone’s endurance, that could be done once they went out of the base.

He would just let Zam and the others create a schedule for everyone to continue fighting zombies and other enemies once they were outside.

After talking to the team for a bit and making sure that no one had any serious problems because of yesterday’s events, he left the villa and went to the military area.

He wanted to understand the current state of the base, so he went directly to the military area where his grandfather and uncles were.

It was easier to get a summary of information from them than to go around the entire base checking it himself.

They had surely kept their soldiers and other personnel working through the night, so there should already be a preliminary understanding of the situation.

Sure enough, when he arrived at his grandfather’s office, he saw that his uncles and other people were still gathered there.
