As everyone on the wall watched with bated breath, the two Tier 6 zombies lunged at Ethan.
But Ethan didn't even flinch.
With a single, brutal swing of his rebar staff—BOOM—the first zombie raised its arm to block, but it didn't matter. The blow crushed through bone and skull alike, turning its head into pulp.
The second zombie was already within striking distance, claws reaching for Ethan's throat.
But just as it was about to grab him—Ethan vanished.
In the blink of an eye, he reappeared behind it. The pointed end of his rebar staff drove straight through the back of its skull.
One clean strike. Another instant kill.
The wall went dead silent.
That… was Tier 6. And Ethan had taken them out like they were nothing.
In that moment, Ethan's image as an unstoppable force was burned into the hearts of every Enhanced in the compound.
The fear that had gripped them earlier? Gone.
With a leader like this, what was there to be afraid of?
