The soldiers descended from the wall using ropes, as opening the gate was out of the question.
If they did, the zombie carcasses would spill in from the outside, and in the event of another wave or trouble, closing the gate would become nearly impossible.
This left them with no choice but to climb down.
Equipped with large military backpacks, they first cleared a small, designated area.
There, they began collecting the zombie corpses they had already inspected and removed crystal cores from, piling them up in one spot.
Once everything was gathered, they set the pile ablaze, ensuring the remains were properly disposed of.
This approach, however, was slow—like counting rice grains one by one from a sack—and not nearly fast enough for the sheer number of zombie carcasses outside.
If they continued at this pace, it would take forever. Kisha recognized this and decided to enlist the help of the Scarlet Bees to speed things up.
