Originally, Ye Feng thought that the casualties were already quite high, but now he realized that in other cities, the number of casualties was often more than four to five times that of Yang City.
The reason why the casualties in other cities were so much higher than those in Yang City lay mainly in the cleanup operations that followed.
According to statistics, during the initial outbreak and attack of the Mutated Creatures, the number of casualties actually accounted for at most one quarter of the total.
Although the Mutated Beings were attacking furiously at the beginning, that was also when the defenders had the most ammunition and firearms at their disposal.
Additionally, since they were fighting a defensive battle, they could use flamethrowers and poison water among other things; as long as there weren't widespread collapses in the defense lines, they could inflict maximum casualties on the Mutated Creatures with minimal losses.
