Chapter 66 Swear Allegiance to Me
Hordes of zombies crawled up from underground, surrounding their last refuge from all sides. More poured relentlessly through the breached defense line–where resistance had crumbled entirely. Beneath them, the generator stood barely 6.6 feet tall, its surface narrow and cramped.
All survivors huddled like helpless sheep, trapped in a dense, inescapable ring of the undead. No escape remained—not even a glimmer of hope.
The generator itself wobbled unsteadily under the zombies‘ constant shoving and jostling.
They were doomed. Truly doomed.
Just as despair fully consumed them, a thunderous roar echoed through the silent factory.
A rugged armored vehicle cut through the gloom, emerging before everyone’s eyes.
At that moment, all survivors fell silent, staring in stunned awe.
The fierce vehicle plowed through scattered zombies without slowing, heading straight for their factory.

debris.
The gruesome zombie ladder collapsed instantly, sending those still clinging to each other mid–climb scattering downward like rain.
Seconds later, a powerful jet of water shot from the armored vehicle’s roof hatch.
At the gunport stood a man, with a massive high–pressure water column converging in his palm before surging toward the remaining undead.
The jet cleared a wide path wherever it went, sweeping away even those clinging to fellow zombies in mid–air.
Moments later, roaring flames erupted from the vehicle’s roof.
Water and fire attacks paired with the armored vehicle’s reckless crushing below, scattering and eliminating the thousand–strong
horde in mere minutes.
At the wheel, Iris thought this was true zombie slaying- efficient, unrelenting, and satisfying.
With the main zombie force wiped out, the armored vehicle pulled up beside the factory. Its doors opened, and a pack of dogs clad in specialized combat gear–protecting their heads and bellies–rushed out to finish stragglers, taking down o with:22

The vehicle’s sunroof slid fully open, and an extendable ladder rose high into the air.
Amid Kevin and Jenna’s shocked stares, two figures–one man, one woman–leaped up from below and landed on the rooftop.
They had come to save them.
The man wielded a continuous water stream, while the woman brandished a long blade, cutting down zombies with swift precision.
Nothing stood in their way–her blade sliced through undead necks effortlessly, with his high–pressure jet covering her flanks and clearing distant targets.
Their seamless coordination carried them to the generator.
In ten minutes, every zombie around Kevin’s group lay dead, and the survivors stared at the pair in utter reverence—as if gazing upon gods who’d come to their rescue.
So this was the deity of legend, who came down from the heavens to deliver them from doom.
“Would you like to come with me?” Iris asked the group after finishing off the last rooftop zombie.
The survivors froze, eyes widening in disbelief.

“I’ve built a base. Those who come with me will be my residents. From now on, I’ll protect your safety—you’ll be the safest people alive within my territory,” Iris stated firmly, locking eyes with each survivor.
Kevin was first to react, asking cautiously, “What do you want
from us?”
Iris replied, blade planted firmly on the ground before them, “Swear allegiance to me.
“I can’t restore life to pre–apocalypse normalcy. But swear allegiance, and I’ll make you the happiest base residents in this world.”
Logan stood behind her like an unwavering pillar, his presence amplifying her aura of absolute strength.
Strength commanded natural respect and trust, drawing everyone involuntarily closer.
“You saved us. My wife and I agree!” Kevin said without hesitation, taking Jenna’s hand and climbing down from the generator.
They had no reason to refuse,

of sudden attacks.
A safe haven was all they needed, and Iris had given them a second chance.
Her overwhelming power alone was enough to earn their loyalty.
After Kevin and Jenna climbed down, the other dozen survivors scrambled to follow.
“We agree, too!”
“Count me in!”
“I’ll follow you! Just keep us safe and give us something to eat!”
Nearly everyone accepted, save for two young girls.
“We… we want to go home,” one stammered, voice trembling.
Iris lifted her eyes lazily, scanning the girl once. “Zombies are everywhere. Do you think your home is safe?”
