The Hammerhead is quite hard to deal with. Unlike the Juggernaut that is just pure muscle and can be attacked with brute force, I suspected the Hammerhead to have a bit of metal on its skin. The head especially looked like metal and I saw earlier that bullets bounce off from its head after being shot by Kato using the AR15.

We are fine right now against the threat of the smaller undead because, for some reason, they seemed to be wiped out and no longer coming to attack. Some of the trucks that went first stopped in the distance and the snipers were trying to help by sniping the Hammerhead. But most bullets don't even manage to penetrate the head. They all stop on the exterior of the Hammerhead's forehead and fall.

Kato fought using the AR15 even though it was kind of a waste to use but I am not stopping him. Kato is not a good fighter using the melee weapons and from what I can tell, he is much more proficient in guns. But in this battle, guns are useless.

Tamaki is also on standby and ready to attack the Hammerhead but she is more inclined on attacking random undead trying to attack us. Once we finish this battle and return home alive, I will commend Tamaki and officially allow her on the group.

The Hammerhead is still crouching until now and it is a.s.suming the running pose. I am not quite sure what is going on but while it is still not moving, I might as well try to penetrate its defense.

I pulled out my Naginata on my back and grip it. I am quite not sure whether the power of the Naginata can kill it. I still remember last time when I was abducted by those shady thrill-seekers, I managed to kill a Juggernaut using the Naginata but because I keep on using this weapon many times, I doubt it will last long enough to destroy and kill this new freak. 

I focused on the Hammerhead and point the sharp end of the Naginata to the neck. If the head is not something I can easily penetrate, then how about using brute force to forcefully decapitate the freak?

"Kato! Focus on its neck! The head cannot be penetrated! We can only force it to get decapitated! Reduce the toughness of the neck using the bullets!"

"Got it!"

"Tamaki! Be sure to fight with us but be more on the distance and cover our backs in case some small undead managed to get its way through here! Also, relay to the other soldiers that are still near that they supply us with ammunition and dodge if necessary! This Hammerhead will be more inclined to attack the trucks than us humans!"

"Alright! Men! You heard the boss! Be ready to help us when the time comes and be ready to flee if the situation is dire!"

"Yes, Maam!"

Since the Hammerhead is still crouching, I didn't waste this opportunity and launched an attack. Just when I was about to hit it with the Naginata, the Hammerhead moved its hands and covered its neck which made the Naginata snap since the hand is also covered with a hard material that seemed to look similar to a metal. With the Naginata broken, I throw it away retreated.

'F*CK! THIS FREAK IS INTELLIGENT!' I muttered.

The Juggernaut does not move like this. This might be not a mutated version of the Juggernaut but another freak variant instead! What is much more dangerous, the Hammerhead is able to cover the vulnerable parts! But it is also good news. Seeing the Hammerhead to cover its neck, it means that the weakness of the freak is its neck. There is not a single explanation but that. There is nothing else to do, focus on the neck!

"Destroy the neck of this b*stard!"

Hearing me scream, Kato released a barrage of bullets on the neck of the Hammerhead. The Hammerhead was forced to cover its neck once again. I frowned and groaned seeing how strong the defense of the Hammerhead even though it's only the back of its hands. I don't want to risk my other weapons to get destroyed. But I have no choice, I pulled out the Cleaver that was not really something that can cut through the flesh of the Hammerhead but my other weapons don't have many chances to survive. My kukri is already in bad shape and one more attack and it will get ripped apart. The Naginata is no longer usable, the guns I possess are also not feasible to use. The Wakizas.h.i.+ is also a no go, besides the fact that it's too thin, it is also not that ideal in cutting through solid things like how in movies are done. If I used this, the fate of this katana will be similar to the naginata instead.

I know that the Cleaver is also a bad weapon but I can't afford to sacrifice the wakizas.h.i.+ as it is one of the precise cutters in my a.r.s.enal that can easily lop off the flesh and where will I be able to find any katana around? The cleaver is quite common so even though it will get destroyed, I will have no regrets.

Without thinking twice, I brought down the Cleaver to the hand covering the neck of the Hammerhead.

KACHA!

Huh? The fingers of the Hammerhead immediately got detached to the hand as soon as my cleaver struck them. Green blood exploded from the wound and the Hammerhead screamed in pain before it stood up and was about to go berserk.

"Now!" Tamaki shouted and without hesitating to fire, the others released a barrage of bullets to the neck of the Hammerhead.

I, on the other hand, retreated to avoid being caught on the firefight. But, who would have thought I would be able to cut through the Hammerhead? This cleaver seems to be unique. What is going on now?
