Chapter 1719

~5 min read 940 words

Throughout the whole night last night, heaven knows how many infected attacked.

They didn't know how many infected there were, but they knew it hadn't stopped last night.

From time to time, various sounds would ring out, and some people entered dreamland in a daze.

Some people didn't sleep all night, and when they got up early, they found that the entire defensive line had become riddled with holes.

Ying Ying Zi Ye got up and stretched contentedly.

Although it was a bit noisy last night, it didn't matter.

Because the place where he rested was at the very back.

It was some distance from the defensive line, and he could only hear a hint of commotion.

He also heard the commotion last night, but he didn't come out to see.

He knew that if something happened, someone would definitely notify him.

Since no one notified him, that meant it was safe.

Ying Ying Zi Ye walked around the defensive line and downstream once.

He was also shocked for a moment.

Those infected corpses soaked in the water were one after another, so many that they couldn't be counted.

There must have been many washed away by the water current, otherwise it would have been blocked here.

Who knew how many infected came last night.

It was just that the terrain and environment here were easy to defend and hard to attack.

If it were changed to another place, perhaps they would also suffer devastating losses.

It was truly fortunate to be able to find such a good place.

Han Xin led a team to patrol and quickly discovered His Highness.

He didn't expect His Highness to get up so early.

"Greetings, Your Highness."

"Did Your Highness rest well last night?"

Han Xin came to the front and bowed.

"No need for formalities."

"The sleep last night was fine; it was hard on you all."

Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at Han Xin and found that Han Xin's eyes were slightly red.

It should be the result of not sleeping for half the night.

Fortunately, he was still full of spirit.

"Your Highness is joking; it was not hard."

"The terrain here is very good, the defensive line is very useful, and we didn't really need to take action last night."

When Han Xin mentioned last night, he was somewhat excited.

After all, counting it up, last night could be considered the easiest battle.

One had to know that there were countless infected, but they handled it with ease.

It was all because of the short two-hundred-meter defensive line arranged by His Highness.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a battle record.

Come to think of it, the whole army had to thank His Highness.

Otherwise, they would have had a difficult time last night.

"This place is easy to defend and hard to attack; the terrain is natural."

"That two-hundred-meter defensive line was just the finishing touch."

"Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy."

Ying Ying Zi Ye, of course, also thought of this problem.

Even if this were a valley, it was estimated that it would have been breached last night.

After all, there were too many infected.

It was only because of the water area here, with flowing water.

Otherwise, it really wasn't certain that they could resist those infected.

Han Xin deeply agreed with these words.

It was all thanks to this river.

Otherwise, he really didn't know what the result would be.

Han Xin looked at those infected corpses in the water; some were already bloated.

"Your Highness, those infected... are they dead or have they entered a dormant state?"

Han Xin also encountered such a problem for the first time.

Last night, he saw those infected fall into the water and lose all movement after struggling a couple of times.

He only felt it was very novel and didn't know the reason for this.

If His Highness hadn't already rested last night, he would have gone to find His Highness to ask what the situation was.

He held this question in for a whole night, and now that he saw His Highness, he definitely had to ask it.

Not only him, but the soldiers present were all full of anticipation.

They all wanted to know what was going on.

If those infected were all dead, that would be fine.

If they weren't dead yet, then the aftermath would also be a problem.

"Rest assured, they are already dead beyond death."

"They die upon encountering water; this is their destination."

Ying Ying Zi Ye thought of those tiny transparent insects.

It was all those insects controlling the infected.

Once those insects left the body, the corpse would not move.

The infected were afraid of water and fire; these two points were their fatal nemesis.

"Your Highness, what is going on?"

"Why did they die directly when they encountered water?"

"Are they that afraid of water?"

One of the deputy generals was curious and also asked.

No one present was not curious about this question.

Ying Ying Zi Ye smiled: "This is simple."

"Didn't you all discover before that there were tiny transparent insects in their bodies?"

"It was those insects that controlled those infected; the nemesis of those insects is water and fire."

"As long as they fall into the water, the tiny transparent insects in their bodies will crawl out."

"Once the insects crawl out, the corpse will not move, and what awaits the insects will be death."

This explanation by Ying Ying Zi Ye left everyone present silent for a long time.

It could be like this?

Are these insects that afraid of water?
