Chapter 130: Prologue to a New Era
The "zombies" wandering nearby were instantly alarmed by the two men and ran towards them like crazy.
At the same time, three sniper bullets came towards Chen Mo. Chen Mo just shook his body a few times, and the three bullets passed by Chen Mo. One of them happened to hit Qi Youyi's shoulder.
Chen Mo then threw Qi Youyi into the group of "zombies" that were rushing towards him, turned around and ran towards the direction where the sniper bullet came from.
"Captain, what should we do? This guy's reaction is so fast that he doesn't seem like a human. He can even dodge a sniper rifle!"
"It's okay, don't be afraid! We are on a small island. No matter how strong he is, he can't walk on water..."
Before the security captain finished speaking, he saw Chen Mo walking on the water towards the island in the middle of the lake.
What should we do? We can't just sit there and wait for death, right?
The security captain immediately gave an order and five sniper rifles fired at the same time, with bullets fired densely at Chen Mo.
With Chen Mo's skills, there is no way these bullets can hit the target. Even if they do, they will not cause any serious harm to Chen Mo.
Ten minutes later, Chen Mo returned to the suite on the top floor of the resort.
When Qin Yao saw Chen Mo, she immediately asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
Chen Mo smiled and said, "What can happen to me? I dealt with your childhood sweetheart. You won't blame me, right?"
"Childhood sweetheart? You are talking about Qi Youyi? What kind of childhood sweetheart is he? Ah? You killed him?" Qin Yao looked at Chen Mo in shock.
Chen Mo nodded towards the location of the island in the middle of the lake. "Those snipers were sent by him. Since he wants to kill me, he must bear the corresponding consequences!"
"You're right! But the Qi family is not to be trifled with! The Qi Xin Group alone is a huge company with a market value of hundreds of billions!"
"Grandpa Qi has considerable influence in the political world. Qi Youyi's father and several uncles are also members of the Senate."
"Anyway, if you offend the Qi family, you'll be offending half of the capital!"
Chen Mo didn't care after hearing this, "Then there's still half that hasn't been offended, right?"
Qin Yao got anxious when she heard this, "I'm talking to you seriously!"
Chen Mo put away his smile and replied, "I am serious! I just want to take this opportunity to announce my arrival to the entire Shangjing."
"The arrest of Tian Jun last time didn't cause any waves afterwards. It's really weird! Lu Bailing must be deliberately covering it up!"
"If I don't break the barrier he set, I'm afraid he will keep me in the dark."
Qin Yao looked at Chen Mo and suddenly felt a little strange.
Chen Mo explained to Qin Yao again: "Don't be surprised, this is a matter of time. With corresponding strength, there will be corresponding power. This cannot be avoided or escaped!"
"Instead of passively accepting it, I might as well take the initiative to test it! Since I have come to Shangjing, there must be a place for me in Shangjing!"
"The power structure of this world must change since the day the aliens were born. You and I need to adapt as soon as possible!"
Just after Chen Mo made his declaration of his intention to seize power, Abaddon said something similar to Zhao Jiwei on a small hill fifty kilometers south of Xiyun.
"Not only me, the other apostles will soon wake up! The Shadow Association must also prepare and step out from behind the scenes!"
"You are the head of the Xia Country Shadow Association, and you should be the most powerful person in the entire Xia Country in the future!"
Zhao Jiwei was overjoyed when he heard this, then he lowered his head and said, "Don't dare! Don't dare! Since Lord Abaddon is here, our Xia Country Shadow Association branch should obey your orders!"
Abaddon smiled and said nothing in response.
Zhao Jiwei then pointed to the densely packed "zombie group" at the foot of the hill and asked, "Sir, do you want to rely on these zombies to attack the entire Shangjing?"
Abaddon shook his head. "How is that possible? These corpse servants can deal with ordinary people, but if they really fight against the elite field army, they will just consume a few shells."
"If that's the case, why did you go to so much trouble?" Zhao Jiwei asked in confusion. "It's just a greeting!"
"Say hello?" Zhao Jiwei was even more confused.
"The old era has ended, and this is the knock on the door of a new era!" said Abaddon.
Shangjing, Weiyang Palace.
Chief Xu Yiqian was hesitating whether to sign.
"The zombie swarm is about to enter the bombardment range, please make a decision as soon as possible!"
Xu Yiqian ignored the secretary's urging and turned to look at the chief medical officer next to him.
"Haoyu, are you sure these people can't be saved?"
Chief Medical Officer Sheng Haoyu immediately replied: "I am very sure that these people's brain nerves are severely damaged. With the current level of medical technology, it is impossible to save them, not even the United States can!"
After hearing what Sheng Haoyu said, Xu Yiqian finally made up his mind and immediately signed his name on the military order.
Then he handed the military order to the secretary, "Notify everyone! The 76th Army is allowed to bombard Gukou from 16 kilometers to 56 kilometers!"
"Yes!" The secretary took the military order and immediately sent it to the General Staff of the Xia People's Army via a fax machine. The General Staff then sent the order to the headquarters of the 76th Army.
After receiving the order, the commander of the 76th Army immediately ordered his artillery brigade to launch artillery fire, and other units to defend on the spot.
Soon, earth-shaking roars were heard in the eastern suburbs of the imperial capital. A moment later, the violently charging horde of zombies was interrupted by a huge explosion!
When a 155mm howitzer landed, a group of corpses the size of a football field were shaken up. If it were an ordinary person, this alone would be enough to dislocate his internal organs and make him lose the ability to move.
But the bodies of the "zombies" are obviously much stronger than those of ordinary humans. Except for the "zombies" that were blown into pieces within a ten-meter radius of the landing of the shells, the rest of the zombies paused for a moment and then continued to rush forward!
But after just a few steps, the second round of artillery fire came again, and the same scene was repeated.
The artillery array consisting of 108 cannons was enough to scatter tens of thousands of troops on the plain.
But it is not fatal enough to the zombie horde whose morale remains constant and whose number far exceeds 100,000!
The 76th Army was well prepared for this. To deal with those who only knew how to charge blindly with brute force, they had to rely on barbed wire and heavy machine guns.
Soon, the group of zombies rushed to the first barbed wire fence, and several machine gun positions hidden behind the barbed wire fence immediately spit out flames.
The tracer bullet spread out a long whip in the night sky, and wherever the whip reached, the "zombies" were split in half.
At this time, the huge advantage of the heavy machine gun is highlighted. One heavy machine gun can kill at least thirty zombies, and it has an extremely high rate of fire.
However, there were too many zombies. Although there were heavy casualties, they blocked the attack of the heavy machine gun and even approached the range of the heavy machine gun. More and more "zombies" began to climb the barbed wire!
Seeing this, the 76th Army immediately used mortars or howitzers to bombard the zombies climbing the barbed wire.
However, heavy machine guns are unable to carry out long-range suppression due to their short range.
"Boom boom..."
"Rumble..."
Mortar shells flew into the sky and exploded into clouds of smoke and bright arcs of electricity, illuminating the dark night sky as bright as day.
Under such dense firepower coverage, the already strong barbed wire collapsed instantly!
