Apocalypse: The Stronghold System
Chapter 146: Combined 2 Groups of Monsters



The Mingyue PO-11 plane had already arrived at the mountainous area, all of them were bowing their heads as the floor below them became transparent, or rather the LED screen used as a floor shows the scenery in Hong Kong.


This place was really very chaotic, there were flames everywhere and coupled with the extremely hot temperature, these flames could not be extinguished. Mutant beasts roared, zombies ate dead human corpses as well as mutant beasts, but they did not attack each other, but rather cooperated as destroying anything around them.


Half of the Mingyue J-18 flew at low altitude to scan the entire surface, looking for whether there were still humans who could survive in these harsh conditions.


“Detecting 3,827 human life in one place, all human being are in bad condition and weakened every time. In this place there are mutant beasts and high-level zombies, allegedly they are the leaders of each group and have their own thoughts.”


“Calculating all the possibilities following various events around the world, there are humans in charge of collecting other humans and presenting the humans that have been collected for the zombies in exchange for strength.”


Fan Chen did not show any change in expression, even his emotions were not shaken as this was already too often. The most dangerous and threatening in times like these were not mutant beasts or zombies, but humans themselves.


“Adjusting the radiant power emanated from the mutant beasts and zombies in Hongkong, the enemy's highest strength was at Level 120.”


Fan Chen received the report given by Basel, this power was arguably the strongest they had faced all along in its original body form. He was ready, but his hands were still a little sweaty.


Fan Xiaoyu sat closer and whispered, "Sister, is that okay? Basel is Artificial Intelligence, Brother said it must be kept secret, but with this kind of thing, wouldn't it be discovered?"


Fan Chen turned his head, he brought his lips closer to Fan Xiaoyu's ears and said, "Only some of you know, some of you think Basel is just an ordinary intelligent system. Like detecting something, then following the codes that have been set, then sound, Basel also does not often communicate, so it does not reveal his identity."


Fan Chen was very confident of this, because when the un-callable people from the Stronghold System used the VR Pod, Xiaochu scanned a bit of their brainwaves, he said, and they don't know about Artificial Intelligence.


"Come on, don't talk nonsense, we're going down now." Fan Chen stood up after removing the seatbelt, along with 24 others except Fan Xiaoyu who was still sitting.


Fan Xiaoyu removed the seat belt, then she hooked the sling strap on the cabin wall with the Version 1.0 Exoskeleton on her back.


Fan Chen stood further away, he hooked the sling rope on the floor that was 1.5 meters away from his seat. The others were also the same, at least everyone had some distance and lined up.


The Mingyue PO-11 aircraft descends slowly to a height of 100 meters from ground level.


Boom up! Boom up! Boom up!


Explosion after explosion rang out, Mingyue J-18 aircraft fired a small missile about the size of an adult arm and had a length of 65 centimeters.


The hatch door of the PO-11 aircraft opened, suddenly a blast of wind carrying smoke and hot temperatures into the aircraft cabin. But this did not stop everyone's fighting spirit.


The line closest to the hatch door immediately jumped up, and the slingshot rope rolled on everyone's back started to exit quickly.


Waiting two to three seconds, the next row jumped.


Until Fan Chen's turn, Fan Chen ran and jumped out of the cabin. The sling rope behind him continued to stretch out, and he saw that the other personnel had already formed a circular row that fired shots after shots.


When the distance is only 20 meters from the ground, the bag that holds the sling rope reduces the speed of the rope, until finally it completely stops when setting foot on the ground.


The hook inside the aircraft cabin detached automatically, and it instantly re-rolled into the bag.


Many buildings were destroyed and rubble was strewn across the streets. Some of the large buildings seemed to have become a refuge for people during the zombie attack, as it saw some traces of concrete walls and iron doors locked tightly. However, unfortunately, some of those buildings have become a hotbed for zombies, which makes them harder to find.


Not only that, but the black clouds of smoke also made the sunlight difficult to penetrate, creating a gloomy and inhospitable atmosphere. This condition will certainly provide its own psychological pressure for humans who still survive.


Fan Chen raised his left hand and said, "Use a laser-based light rifle for ordinary zombies, but for the Fifth or Sixth level, use the prepared energy weapon."


Energy weapons are almost the same as laser weapons, but do not emit a line-shaped light, but rather an electric flash like that produced by Telsa Coil toys. But rather than a toy, its power was like a bolt of lightning, yet it did not make a sound, and the target that was hit by this attack would be destroyed.


"Don't go all the way from me." Fan Chen pulled the bag that Fan Xiaoyu was wearing.


Fan Xiaoyu did not say anything, he used the M4 Carbine Laser weapon. He was getting ready to wait for the order to act, even though he was happy to play around, but he knew the time.


"The Mingyue J-18 aircraft flew low and kept personnel under safe. For the others, come with me, we'll go to the area where Basel detected. Watch your step, it's very dangerous, but I know you can do it. Now, go!"


Fan Chen gave orders to everyone and led the team to go according to the direction of the arrows in their field of vision.


Everyone wears Smart Glasses themselves, not early models or stylish models, but tightly sealed glasses and only a few holes with an air filter.


Of all the people moving under, they were divided into three squads, and Fan Chen was in the first squad to lead seven people under him, including Fan Xiaoyu.


As their strength had increased under the effects of the Evolution and Enhanced Gene Fluids, the high temperatures due to the flames and sunlight were unable to hurt them, so they could walk without worrying about the temperature.


Moreover, Fan Xiaoyu, with her Fire Element Ability, the blaze here was her home.


Fan Xiaoyu raised his left hand and waved his hand slowly; the wall of fire in front of them was blocking the open path, but suddenly...


A swarm of mutant beasts came out from the opening hole in the wall of fire, these mutant beasts ran very fast, their mouths opened with fangs dripping with rotten blood.


Everyone was ready, and without any further orders, everyone took up their respective laser-based weapons.


Orange, blue, white light comes out of each weapon used depending on the temperature setting. But for sure only the blue and white flames had an effect on the Third level Mutant Wolf (Level 60) in front of them.


It was very easy to deal with this kind of mutant beast, and despite wearing a real body, due to the Lightning and Fire Elemental Ability, the difficulty faced was not too great.


However, this was only a small part because they had not yet reached the central headquarters of the place where humans gathered. As for why not go there directly, it is because it is too conspicuous, and can make the humans there unsafe.


So, it was better to start from the sidelines and continue to push the mutant beast away or kill it.
