Apocalypse: The Stronghold System

Chapter 085: Successfully Completing Mission #2

Fan Chen glided with his head down, it only took him a matter of seconds to get above the back of the Sky Fire Lizard.

Boom up!

The Sky Fire Lizard was embedded deeper due to the pressure from Fan Chen falling on it, resulting in the cracks in the surroundings expanding with pebbles and dust rising.

Fan Chen kept the Shandian Bracelet and HK-80KAH-EP Armor for the moment he landed, although the Shandian Bracelet was able to withstand the Lightning Element with excessive force, but this was for the sake of security so he released it.

He felt a warm sensation inside his stomach and the largest brain waves from his head. His hand started emitting blue with a flash of lightning, then the flash expanded enveloping the Sky Flame Lizard, bursting out the scales attached.

[System Instructions: Successfully killed a Level 89 Sky Fire Lizard (Mutation). +1,602 Coin System, 801 Points]

"Good harvest, it's time to go to Team Alpha." Fan Chen leaped down from the top of the mutant beast corpse along with the Shandian Bracelet that was re-attached in both hands.

Without looking back, the Sky Fire Lizard disappeared from the spot.

Fan Chen walked up to Alpha Team hiding behind the car, he saw all of them were very alert, even some were taking up arms, but he did not care at all.

He raised both hands beside his head to signal that he was harmless while looking around for someone, until he saw a beautiful silver-haired woman with a black part of her hair roots. "Are you Yin Mengqi?"

Yin Mengqi frowned. "Who?"

Fan Chen smiled faintly and said, "Fan Chen, Mother sent me here." He saw everyone who was silent, then he realized. "ah! My mother is Yun Mingyue."

He took out a new picture frame behind his back and handed it to Yin Mengqi. As for the reason why he handed it over, he knew Team Alpha was not easy to believe due to their habits on the battlefield, he even goosebumps when standing in front of them and feels a bloodthirsty gaze, he said, especially an old man wearing caping.

Their bloodlust was stronger than his mother, especially the woman he spoke to this time, who looked spotless clean, but she knew already thousands of lives had been wiped out.

Yin Mengqi took out a picture frame, and at that very instant her vigilance disappeared. He saw in the photo this young man in front of him, standing next to the young man was a woman he knew very well (Yun Mingyue) by holding the young man's left hand, then on the other hand, there was a woman who looked like Yun Mingyue, extending a hand forward and forming a peace pose.

Yin Mengqi handed back the picture frame to Fan Chen without letting the others see it. "Yes, you are indeed Xiao Yue's son."

Tang Zixuan looked at Fan Chen from top to bottom, then looked at the area where the Sky Fire Lizard died. "That thing?"

"Armor HK-80KAH-EP, just got out of the factory."

"Get out of the factory?" Tang Zixuan confirmed whether she had heard it wrong.

Fan Chen nodded his head, then he turned around and waved; there was a large truck appearing with a load of fuel inside. "This is the truck we sent three days ago, but because it's too slow, I picked it up again and sent it right here."

A middle-aged man, wearing glasses, was silent for a while before saying, "Is that thing powered by 24VDC and 10,000Ah Graphene Batteries like the Cold Rose said?"

Fan Chen turned around, looking at the man. "Are you Uncle Dong Qianlong? Yes, it can be said like that, although now we have made a new breakthrough to 18,000Ah. As for its use, there are six main ion engines, initially requiring 2,000 Watts for one minute, even with the breakthrough of the new battery, this battery is only able to lift it for 36 minutes ..."

"That's Mach 1 speed, so what if Mach 2? Mach 3? Mach 5 like I used earlier? Then with a speed of Mach 1, six fully active ion engines, at least can last for ten hours at an altitude of 500 meters."

Dong Qianlong was silent for a while with a shock that could not be hidden. "A-Have you brought the battery?"

"certain." Fan Chen nodded and took out a 24VDC and 18,000Ah Graphene Battery with a small size like three stacks of coins.

Dong Qianlong was stunned when he saw the shape of the battery, he touched it, looked at each side but did not understand why such a small battery was capable of having such a large storage.

Fan Chen ignored Dong Qianlong, he walked towards the truck and stretched out his hand to open it. But suddenly, Old Man stopped him by saying:

"Young man, have you ever killed?"

Fan Chen's hand movements stopped, then he nodded. "Yes." Yeah."

"Using a firearm? Are you training under the guidance of Xiao Yue?"

Fan Chen's body trembled and hugged his own body. "Ja-don't remind me, training was a nightmare, I was in Hell!"

"How did he train you?" Old Man ignored Fan Chen's pain and kept asking.

Fan Chen was silent for a moment, thinking about whether to tell him. But when he saw Old Man, he hoped Old Man could give his mother some advice. "My mom shot me ..." He took out the airsoft gun.

"Mom and the doctor at our place shot me with a gel bullet while I was just wearing shorts. I was asked to dodge, but who can avoid this speed." Fan Chen pulled the trigger, suddenly there was only the sound of metal.

Alpha team turned to look towards the source of the sound, they saw there was a blue spot on the van.

"This speed ..."

Fan Chen did not stop there, he took out the M4 Carbine Type Laser. "Then I was asked to avoid it." He fired it into a portable chair made of flammable material, and at once it emitted smoke until it was completely burned out.

"Lasers?!"

Fan Chen looked at who was shouting, it turned out to be the middle-aged man who was carrying the AK-47 and pointed at him earlier. He knew this person, Han Xiang, the Lieutenant General in Team Alpha who was in charge of weapon modification.

Tang Zixuan sighed and said, "With the speed and accuracy of the Cold Rose ..." He sighed again with emotion, then raised his hands and clapped his head. "I'm so sorry."

Chu Baiyin, Yin Mengqi, Luo Zhu, Dong Qianlong, Han Xiang and the other four people from Team Alpha, made the same move even to the point of saying the same thing.

Fan Chen was speechless, not knowing what to do, this was all not up to his expectations where they should have asked his mother no longer to train in such a cruel manner. But look here, they made a false expression by saying that they were concerned, but in fact their bodies were shaking and the corners of the lips were raised, as if trying to hold back a laugh.

"Haha!" Tang Zixuan could no longer hold back her laughter and laughed out loud, even until her tears came out.

The old man did not laugh, but rubbed the back of his head.

"Look!" Tang Zixuan pointed at Old Man and said, "Even Cold Roses have shot our Coach in the head with rubber bullets because he tried to open a bag of Cold Roses."

Fan Chen fell silent, he turned his head to look at Old Man and made the same move as Tang Zixuan. "I'm so sorry."

Team Alpha laughed out loud, but not with their children.

Their children did not even know that their parents had been in the military, except for Tang Zixuan and Chu Baiyin's children in the State Intelligence Department.

—The Next Day—

Fan Chen had already gotten the basic information about everyone here, in total there were 72 people traveling together using vans and personal.

No. 01: Old Man (Lao Xan)/Coach/Male/75 Years Old.

No. 02: Tang Zixuan (Captain/General General) /Male/53 Years.

No. 03: Chu Baiyin (Lieutenant General)/Female/49 Years.

No. 04: Luo Zhu (Major General)/Male/50 Years.

No. 05: Yin Mengqi (Cononel)/Female/48 Years.

No. 06: Dong Qianlong (Master General)/Male/50 Years.

No. 07: Han Xiang (Dean General)/Male/51 Year.

No. 08: Qian Jianying (Cononel)/Female/47 Years.

No. 09: Duan Xi Ning (Major General)/Female/49 Years.

No. 10: Nan Xihe (Dean General)/Female/49 Years.

No. 11: Chen Wangping (Male General)/Male/52 Years.

No. 12: Huo Tangsan (Dean General)/Male/51 Year.

Not all members married fellow members, some were married to rulers, doctors or teachers. Their children were between two years old under and five years old above Fan Chen.

But if you count only Alpha Team family members, there are only 30 people. As for the remaining 42, it was their other fellows such as the Scientists and Engineers confidants, along with the other families that were brought in.

[Mission #2]

[Solution Rate: 029/100]

[Gift: +10 All Stat, 10,000©, Front Row Troop Barracks ×1, Mil Mi-26 Helicopter ×1, Leopard 2A7 ×1, ¥500,000,000]

Since Yu Shin, Wu Xuan, Shi Gongzi and Mao Xhuangong were expelled from Mingyue Defense, then the number saved was reduced. But strangely, there was no other addition even though he had already saved everyone here.

[System Reminder: The Host hasn't really saved them yet for not taking them to Mingyue Defense]

Is it able to solve it instantly like paying for it with the System Coin?

[System Reminder: The Host can pay it as long as everyone here is neutral and requires 150©/person]

Yu Shin, Wu Xuan, Shi Gongzi and Mao Xhuangong displayed red marks, but why would they be able to join Mingyue Defense?

[System Reminder: When they join, their mark is still white (neutral)]

Fan Chen nodded and no longer hesitated, he controlled the system prompt that appeared in front of him with his mind and paid 10,800©.

The reason why he was in such a hurry in the completion of this mission was because he wanted the Mil Mi-26 Helicopter to transport everyone to the Anti-Gravity Mothership.

[System Guide: Successfully saving 100 Survivors]

[Gift: +10 All Stat, 10,000©, Front Row Troop Barracks ×1, Mil Mi-26 Helicopter ×1, Leopard 2A7 ×1, ¥500,000,000]

[Mil Mi-26 Helicopter (System Gift)]

[Heavy transport helicopter designed by Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant of Soviet/Russian Union and used by both civil and military service. It is the largest and most powerful mass-produced helicopter]

[Cru: 6 – 2 pilots, 1 navigator, 1 flight engineer, 1 loadmaster, 1 radio/electronic systems operator]

[Capacity: 80 troops; 20,000 kg cargo]

[Length: 40m

Propeller diameter: 30m

Height: 8,145 m

Plate area: 789 m²

Empty weight: 28,200 kg

Load weight: 49,500 kg

Maximum weight at takeoff: 56,000 kg

Engine: 2 × Lotarev D-136 turboshaft, 12,800 kW (17,165 Hp) each performance]

[Maximum speed: 350 km/h, 217 mph (189 kt)

Range: 4,880 km

Ceiling limit: 11,500 m]

Fan Chen was stunned when he saw the distance that could be traveled and the height limit that could be reached by the Mil Mi-26. This was all 2.5 times of normal specifications, and as for his speed, although not 2.5 normal speed, it was already extremely incredible.

Then there is more power needed greater, but nothing strange because the speed, range and altitude limits are already very abnormal.

With this speed of 350 km/h, from this place to Mingyue Defense, they could arrive within five hours. But Fan Chen had no intention of using it to return to Mingyue Defense because it was too dangerous to be attacked by a mutant beast like the Sky Fire Lizard earlier.

So, he only needed to wait for the Anti-Gravity Mothership, then had Tang Zixuan take control of the Mil Mi-26 to fly and land on top of the Mothership.
