He didn't care about the upcoming footsoldiers, not yet. He could finish this fight, and get both groups together, and engage the zombies as they tried to emerge from the wall of thorns and branches he had created. But he first had to clear out the current ones. He drew his weapons again, and yelled for Meridia to go and help heal up the soldiers, get as many back on their feet as possible, as he double tapped the rune to activate the flaming enchantment on his sword, before wading into it, firing his revolver point blank into the heads of the zombies, and doing his best to keep as many of the soldiers standing as possible. It would be close, especially with Meridia healing now rather than blasting now, to finish off this wave before the second, but he could feel the odds stacking back in his favor.
