"Hey, luckily my phone isn't lost!" Huang Mao took out an old phone from his bag, but unfortunately, it was dead.
Many people reacted the same way as Huang Mao and the Fatty. The people at the base finally understood why the military organized this operation; they had confidence! Many clever hunters had already started rushing back to their homes! They quickly prepared weapons and vehicles to follow the military into the city to kill zombies and gather supplies! If they were late, there would be nothing left for them.
The mecha instilled fear in everyone, but it also brought confidence. It had been over four months since the apocalypse began, and many people had fallen into despair. However, now, the appearance of the mecha drove that despair away. People believed that if even a mecha could be created, how could they not defeat those mindless zombie monsters? Although humans were weak in the face of nature, their intelligence was not to be underestimated. It was precisely because of human wisdom that they could survive various disasters. Unlike dinosaurs, those large-bodied creatures that went extinct!
"Huang Mao, where are you going?"
"Of course I'm going to drive. Fatty, hurry up! If we’re late, we won’t get to see the mecha in action!"
Many people shared the same thought, and the crowd at the entrance quickly decreased by two-thirds. As for where they went, everyone was clear!
"Let's go!" With a command from a major general, the military set off. This time, the base was fully committed to reclaiming the city. A total of 100,000 troops were deployed, with three wolf-type mechas leading the way, piloted by Zhu Xu and his two colleagues. Those two colleagues did not possess any abilities nor could they cultivate, but their physical fitness met the minimum standards for operating a mecha. Following them were 10,000 soldiers equipped with energy guns. These young people had felt lost and despondent due to their lack of abilities. Ordinary firearms caused limited damage to zombies, and many of these soldiers had lost their lives fighting on the most dangerous front lines. Now things were better; their leaders equipped them with powerful weapons that ensured their safety and allowed them to kill more zombies to protect civilians. Although currently only 10,000 energy guns were available, leaders from research institutes and military factories were working overtime to produce new weapons. In a month or perhaps half a month, all ordinary soldiers would be able to get these energy guns—Mom, with this energy gun, you won't have to worry about your son's safety anymore!
Behind the 10,000 soldiers was a team of ability users. This team included soldiers from Central Plains who awakened abilities as well as many non-military ability users, totaling around 8,000 people. Among them were over a hundred special individuals who were not ability users but cultivators. Tian Yuan was the leader of this cultivator team; however, he was not the one with the highest cultivation level—Yi Qian was actually the strongest among them. He was already a foundational stage cultivator with impressive strength. Yi Qian served as both vice-captain and instructor for this group of cultivators. Due to military regulations, young people could not stay by their masters' sides and often complained.
Behind the ability user team was a line of ordinary soldiers sitting in tanks and armored vehicles. For this operation, high-ranking officials at the base spared no expense and brought out all heavy weaponry. Of course, nuclear bombs and weapons could not be used; otherwise, they would risk exterminating humanity instead of eliminating zombies—just like what happened in a certain island nation across the sea. Shortly after the apocalypse began, people from that island nation foolishly launched nuclear weapons; while some zombies were indeed eliminated, those that remained became even stronger due to nuclear radiation. Then those mutated zombies wiped out what remained of humanity on that island nation, leading it to become a part of history.
Following behind the military were various hunting teams and many onlookers drawn by curiosity about the mecha. Finally, two wolf-type mechas brought up the rear while five diamond-type mechas patrolled alongside the convoy to eliminate any zombies attempting to approach.
"Big Brother, this operation is thanks to you!" The leading major general was Ou Haohua, brother of Ou Haosheng. Despite being in his forties when he was promoted to general—a position he earned through hard work—his more than ten years as a special forces soldier gave him a strong physique; he was among the earliest individuals to awaken abilities.
"I can't take credit; all credit goes to Bai Tang." Ou Haosheng volunteered for this operation.
"Yes, thanks to Bai Tang! I never expected there would really be aliens in this world!"
"Before, we hadn't thought about the apocalypse, but now it's here, right?"
"That's true! We're almost at our destination. I need to prepare for battle, so you do as you please!"
"I'm heading back to the team." O Haosheng grabbed an Energy Gun and squeezed into the vanguard.
The capital of Huaguo is a historically rich ancient city, with records tracing back to the early Western Zhou period. Zhou Wuwang granted Zhao Gong land in the capital and surrounding areas, calling it Yan; he also bestowed land to the descendants of Yao in Ji, located southwest of today's capital. After the Later Yan state destroyed the Ji state, it moved its capital there, collectively known as Yan Capital or Beijing. After the Qin Dynasty conquered the Yan state, it established Ji County here as the seat of Guangyang Commandery. In the fifth year of Han Gaozu's reign, it was incorporated into Yan territory. In the first year of Yuanfeng, it was restored as Guangyang Commandery's Ji County under Youzhou. During Eastern Han Guangwu's reform, Youzhou's Inspectorate was established in Ji County. During the Western Jin period, the court renamed Guangyang Commandery to Yan state while Youzhou was relocated to Fanyang. During the Sixteen Kingdoms' Later Zhao period, Youzhou's headquarters returned to Ji County, and Yan state was reestablished as Yan Commandery. It remained unchanged through Former Yan, Former Qin, Later Yan, and Northern Wei. In the third year of Sui Kaihuang, Yan Commandery was abolished; in the third year of Great Undertaking, Youzhou was renamed Zhuo Commandery. During Tang Dynasty Wude years, Zhuo Commandery was renamed Youzhou again; in the first year of Zhenguan, Youzhou was assigned to Hebei Road and later became the residence of Fanyang's military governor. During the An Shi Rebellion, An Lushan declared himself emperor in Beijing and founded a country called Great Yan. In the Five Dynasties Period, warlord Liu Rengong established a local regime here called Yan King but was later eliminated by Later Tang. In the first year of Song Zhengyuan, Emperor Wanyan Liang of the Jin Dynasty officially established his capital here, naming it Zhongdu. During the Yuan Dynasty, Mongolia's Great Khan changed its name to Yuan Dynasty. Since then, it began to serve as the capital of all Huaxia through the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties. During the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang initially established his capital in Yingfu but later moved it back to Beijing. The reason for this relocation by Ming Chengzu Yan Wang Zhu Di was greatly admired by Bai Tang: "The son guards the national gate; if the monarch dies, so does the nation!"
At this moment, this historical capital city had been occupied by Zombies. As a Huaxia person, especially a native of Kyoto, it was simply unbearable. A thought surged in everyone's mind: reclaim Kyoto and take back our homeland!
The battle naturally erupted; Ability Users and ordinary soldiers along with accompanying Hunters did not join in because they were all stunned. This was simply one-sided slaughter! Everyone's mind flashed with images of Boxers wielding sabers against Foreign Devils but being mowed down by gunfire without even touching an enemy hair. The current scene resembled how Foreign Devils slaughtered Boxers during that time; Zombies charged excitedly towards the crowd like former Boxer members, and their overwhelming numbers made all accompanying Hunters' scalps tingle. As a result, before they could get within two thousand meters of the team, all Zombies fell down. Without exception, every Zombie that got shot could no longer rise again. Soon enough, a wall of corpses appeared before everyone.
Even more exaggerated than the new weapon squad were ten Mechas; they were undoubtedly a bug-like existence. The claws and teeth of Zombies couldn't penetrate Mecha's exterior at all and thus couldn't harm its operator inside. Meanwhile, a single swipe from a Mecha could turn a Zombie into pulp—truly invincible! The only drawback was their stiff movements and slow speed; perhaps their operators were still not very familiar with handling them.
"Fatty, their guns are amazing! If only we had one too," Huang Mao drooled while speaking to Fatty. They definitely had no chance with Mechas but having one of those powerful new weapons would be great!
Fatty drooled just as much as Huang Mao: "So impressive! What kind of gun is this? It has been firing for so long without needing to change bullets?"
A guy nearby leaned over: "Bro, I know what kind of gun this is!"
"You know? What gun?" Huang Mao, Fatty, and everyone around rushed forward to ask.
Zhong Hai smiled proudly and boasted: "My cousin is in the army; according to him, this new type of weapon is called an Energy Gun. The energy beams it fires can kill even level four Zombies; one gun can continuously fire two thousand energy beams and can be recharged with Crystal Cores after running out of energy."
"Wow, that's amazing!" Everyone's mouths were agape.
"Bro, when can your brother sell us that gun?" a Brute asked.
"Just wait! Once the army is equipped, it will be our turn!" Zhong Hai replied. "But my cousin works at the research institute, and they are rushing to produce the Energy Gun. I believe we will be able to buy the Energy Gun soon."
Hearing this news, everyone was very happy, but Zhong Hai continued.
"The newly manufactured Energy Guns don't have as much power as the first batch; they can only fire five hundred energy beams continuously."
"That's enough!" Huang Mao said excitedly. "Five hundred shots is a lot! We can kill five hundred Zombies without needing to reload, saving so much time!"
"Exactly," Fatty agreed repeatedly. "Once the energy runs out, it can be recharged. Five hundred shots and two thousand shots are no different!"
"There is a big difference; the two thousand shot Energy Gun saves three times the Crystal Core compared to the five hundred shot one." A hot-looking Sister Yu shot a glare at Fatty, causing his nosebleed to almost spill. He had no mood to calculate the difference in Crystal Core consumption between the two guns.
"It's done!" A loud shout echoed through the crowd.
