Paige Summers could just make out a sturdy defensive shield extending several meters around it, deflecting every falling clump of dirt and rock without fail!
The whole ordeal lasted for over ten minutes, and Paige's heart was lodged in her throat the entire time.
It wasn't until the screams of the Zombies that had disobeyed orders and run outside the shield completely ceased, and the thudding of heavy objects grew sporadic, leaving only the sound of small dirt clumps trickling down, that she finally let out a long breath and lowered the hands protecting her head.
Just then, the Zombie leader, its energy depleted, staggered a few steps and fell backward onto the ground with a THUD.
Paige Summers looked up and realized she was the only one still able to move...
Once Sheldon Reid let his guard down, he also collapsed to the ground from exhaustion, his hands trembling uncontrollably.
