The ending of the Behemoth is not that eventful. Although the behemoth's parts are still trying to move, we soon found out that they won't last a few minutes after being separated from its central body. Now that its main body is destroyed, there is no point to get scared of it. However, our problem is now stuck in this troublesome situation. The daily Night Rage is coming.

"Sir, we have seen in our drones the appearance of the Decapitators, bulldogs and 2 Juggernaut not too far from our location. The swarm of the mosquitoes are also en route here in 10 minutes," One of the scouts said who is using the drones that were made by Nanami from random parts of the junks she found throughout the places she visited.

"Wrap up everyone! We need to return before the Night Rage fully manifest! We can't afford to get besieged by these freaks after we exhaust our resources from fighting the undead and the Behemoth!"

The soldiers quickly finished whatever they are doing and returned to their respective trucks. I have seen Tamaki and her female squads managed to survive the battle. It looks like she did work hard. I will commend her later back in the base. Haru is also there but I can see him with too much low energy, maybe due to his participation in the frontline, it lost a lot of his stocked energy. Kato remained the same and currently helping the wounded soldiers alongside with uncle Matsubara.

After peeling off the wrapper of the lollipop, I pop in the lollipop into my mouth and checked the remaining bullets of my AR15. I have a half of the mag left and I still have a half amount in a box which won't last long if I have to confront against the horde of undead during this Night Rage, I will be in big trouble. I also have a single grenade with me which is for emergency purposes, in case I need to go full blaze and glory though I hope that won't happen.

After a few more minutes, everyone is back and they have finally taken care of the tasks.

"Move, move! Stop dawdling!"

As soon as we managed to enter the trucks, we can hear in the distance the barking sounds that are coming from the infected dogs.

"Go! Go!"

Engines started revving and the trucks started running one by one. As soon as we move away from the zoo, we have seen the insane amount of undead clumping on the road as they started to gather. The soldiers on the rear entrance of the truck does the tasks of destroying the undead that tried to get into the truck. Just as we thought that everything is fine, one of the soldiers in our truck stopped moving. I just realized that his head is missing.

"Protect your necks and head! The decapitator is attacking!" one of the soldiers in the truck I was in shouted. I was near the entrance so when I noticed the movement in my eyes, I quickly pull out the kukri and strike on the incoming attack. As soon as the decapitator almost hit me, I pull out my kitchen cleaver and made a swift strike on its neck.

Although the kukri is nearing the limit of usage, I still managed to block off an attack using it but the cracks have made too much damage on its blade and if I used it for blocking again, I doubt it will occur just like now. I am quite sure it will snap out in two instead.

The soldier opposite of me decided to throw off the dead body of the soldier that got killed by the Decapitator. After that, he chanted a small prayer before holding back his puke from going out. Some of the trucks also lost some soldiers and many puked out from the beheaded bodies of their comrades. I saw another movement and this time, I decided to use the wakizashi. I made sure I am using the Wakizashi for blocking the attack since it is a katana, it would be a problem if I accidentally killed someone when swinging the katana.

PENG!

The wakizashi's blade and the decapitator's bladed hand hit each other. Too bad for the decapitator, when their bladed hand hit the blade, instead of breaking it, it's bladed hand was cut into two. It cannot compare against the sharpness of the Decapitator. Before the Decapitator can escape, I raise the kitchen cleaver and once again swipe the blade to its neck.

"Wow, I never thought this kid was able to do it without flinching! No wonder he is the leader of his group!" one of the soldiers said.

"He was literally just a highschooler but he can manage to do it all by himself. I am not surprised he can fight without a problem. I heard that he rallied all his companions out from their school while the Behemoth was on their tail."

I disregarded their praises. I don't need it and instead focused on what was happening. The sun already set and the skies started to blanket the darkness. If not for the light coming from the trucks and the flashlight coming from the flashlights of some soldiers, it was enough to illuminate the place temporarily.

"Juggernaut ahead!"

The shout came from the first truck and they have successfully passed through on it. I am not sure whether we can escape a Juggernaut but we have been having trouble now. The undead were now running as fast as they can and if not for the speed that the trucks give, the undead would have already managed to catch up on us and overwhelm us.

The situation is getting dire but I am quite aware that the battle is just beginning. Who said we are escaping hell from defeating the Behemoth? We are just entering a true hell instead.
