Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 2215 Mech Warriors Battle Against King Kong Zombies!

There is an iron mine 20 kilometers away from the Xunwu tungsten mine.

This mine was once exploited by the forces of Dazhangshu, and some conveyor belts and crushing machinery can still be found here.

Meanwhile, the area around the mine was occupied by tens of thousands of zombies.

In the center of the mine, there was a huge creature. Its body was pitted and bumpy, with protruding parts that looked like cysts. Its overall surface was blackish-yellow and looked extremely disgusting.

Besides the cysts, the creature's shoulders and back were covered with tentacles that swayed in the air like foxtail grass. At the base of the tentacles were holes that could draw in the surrounding sea mist as the tentacles swayed.

This creature is like a giant range hood, sucking in sea fog from hundreds of meters around.

Click, click, click~
The creature suddenly opened its gaping maw and swallowed the ore and the corpses of the zombies placed in front of it.

A few minutes later.

This creature laid dozens of eggs.

The zombies waiting nearby then methodically carried the eggs deeper into the mine.

This giant zombie is the mother of the King Kong zombie. It devours zombie corpses and absorbs DI elements from the air, converting them into energy for embryonic development, thereby producing a large number of eggs.

These eggs, once hatched, become King Kong zombies.

Previously, while underwater, the King Kong Zombie Mother obtained nutrients by devouring zombie corpses and marine life, and also consumed seabed metal debris, producing powerful King Kong Zombies.

As the sea fog rolled in, the mother sea creature also came ashore from the seabed.

There are many mines on land. The mother chooses to lay her eggs near the mines, which makes it easier to obtain nutrients and also allows her to use the environment of the mines to strengthen her offspring.

The metal radiation from the mine can make the egg's shell harder, which in turn makes the skin of the King Kong zombie inside also harden.

The King Kong zombies are a Zerg-like race with a very clear division of labor within the group.

The King Kong Zombie, acting as a worker zombie, serves as a predator, responsible for bringing back zombie corpses and other creatures for the mother to devour. Its skin is silvery-white, and it possesses considerable combat power.

Another type of zombie, smaller in size and with black skin, is the "Nurter," who specifically cares for the mother zombie to lay eggs, ensuring that the King Kong zombie can hatch normally.

There is another type that is larger than both the "Forager" and the "Nurturer," with golden skin, and is responsible for guarding the zombie mother and protecting her.

The entire group transitioned from the ocean to the land and was influenced by the terrestrial environment, resulting in significant changes throughout the group.

Furthermore, since it is easier to obtain minerals on land, the number of King Kong zombies produced by the zombie mother is greater than the number of eggs produced when it is in the ocean!

After laying dozens of eggs, the giant zombie mother suddenly opened up the fleshy tumor on her head, which was as big as a person, and a tentacle swung twice into the sky.

After waving its tentacles, it quickly retracted into the tumor.

Roar roar roar—

The zombie mother let out a roar.

As if receiving some kind of command, nearly five hundred Vajra zombies ran towards the mine where Xiao Jun and his group were.

These Vajra zombies were extremely fast. At first, their formation was fairly orderly, but as they got further away from the mother body, they became more and more scattered.

However, Xiao Jun and his group, who were twenty kilometers away, were unaware of all this.

Xunwu County Tungsten Mine.

Huang Zheng, the captain of the second combat squad of the fifth combat battalion, approached Zhou Tian:
"Brother Zhou, we've thoroughly searched the inside of this mine and eliminated all the zombies. The workers can go down and start working now."

"Okay, I understand. Go help at the second defensive position and make sure not a single zombie gets into the mine!" Zhou Tian instructed seriously.

"Yes."

Zhou Tian then notified Jian Ming, the person in charge of the mining operation, that he could officially go down to mine.

They quickly and efficiently mobilized the mining workers and carried out mining operations in an orderly manner.

This mine has both open-pit and underground mines, and its mineral resources are extremely rich.

They had been mining for months, but had only managed to extract a very small portion of it.

bang bang bang~
Gunshots could be heard from time to time around the mine. Although the place was remote, their large numbers attracted some zombies.

However, as time went by, the number of gunshots decreased.

sizzle-

Zhou Dafu, who was in charge of the first layer of defense at the mine, picked up the walkie-talkie and contacted Xiao Jun:

"Commander, the zombies should be mostly cleared out. Fewer and fewer zombies are coming now."

Xiao Jun replied to him quickly:

"I understand. Don't let your guard down. Be prepared for shift work. We are fighting a long-term battle."

Also, have the brothers use this time to build up some defensive positions.

"Yes." Zhou Dafu immediately notified his men to go to the center of the mine and find Jian Ming.

They borrowed several bulldozers, intending to use the waste materials from the mine to build a defensive perimeter around the mine.

When facing zombies from a higher position, one always has the advantage.

Boom boom boom boom boom—

The crushing equipment in the mine was started at this moment.

A tremendous roar echoed throughout the entire mine.

Upon hearing the sound, Xiao Jun frowned slightly. Such a commotion would surely attract more zombies from the vicinity.

They simply couldn't do anything about it, because mechanical operation inevitably produces noise.

The rain was still falling, and the gunfire around them was becoming increasingly sparse.

The Xunwu County tungsten mine is located in a remote area, five or six kilometers away from the nearest village or town. Before the apocalypse, the area was sparsely populated.

It was only because there were mines here that a highway was built specifically for transporting ore.

Time passed by, second by second.

Xiao Jun stood on the roof of the behemoth vehicle, with a drone flying overhead.

In addition to this drone, there are four other drones patrolling around the mine.

Once a problem is detected, the drone operator will immediately contact Xiao Jun.

Xiao Jun looked around and felt that everything seemed to be on the right track.

But why does his brow keep twitching, giving him a feeling of unease?

He racked his brains, but still couldn't figure out what part he had missed.

never mind!

Unable to understand, he got off the Big Mac and went back inside.

"Contact the headquarters and tell them that we have officially moved into the mine and that everything is proceeding smoothly without any problems. Please rest assured."

"Yes." The communications officer immediately followed Xiao Jun's instructions and reported their situation to the headquarters.

The mine's second defensive position.

Li Qi sat in a makeshift rain shelter, wrapped in a raincoat, breathing out cold air.

He asked Zuo Ruxue beside him:

"Are you all done with your work?"

Zuo Ruxue nodded. "Commander Xiao asked me to come and help you. It's cold enough today."

“Yes.” Li Qi chewed on a piece of beef jerky, her cheek aching from biting so hard.

"This beef jerky is too hard. I wonder how long we'll be staying here."

Zuo Ruxue walked out from under the awning, climbed onto the armored vehicle, and looked at the sea fog several kilometers away.

The sea fog and the rain were clearly distinct. Within a radius of several kilometers from the mine, there was torrential rain, while beyond that, there was only sea fog.

They were like a group of people trapped in a fog, with no living creatures around them.

Suddenly, a static sound came from the earpiece she was wearing, followed by Xiao Jun's voice:
"Zhou Dafu, Zuo Ruxue, Li Qi, Zhu Xiao, the sonar detector has detected a large number of zombies approaching from your direction. Prepare for defense!"

Upon hearing this, Zuo Ruxue looked down at Li Qi under the awning.

Li Qi also hurriedly ran out from under the awning, climbed onto the armored vehicle, and used binoculars to observe the distance.

Their drones also flew eastward. *Whoosh whoosh whoosh*

The drone flew to the point where the sea fog and the rainstorm met and hovered in the air.

Through the drone screen, Xiao Jun, inside the behemoth, saw one after another King Kong zombie rushing towards him at a speed of seventy kilometers per hour from the sea fog.

King Kong Zombie!

They're all King Kong zombies!

Xiao Jun gasped.

Quickly pick up the walkie-talkie and contact Zhou Dafu:
"Zhou Dafu, a Vajra Zombie is approaching 4.5 kilometers to the east!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Dafu, who was on the outermost edge, suddenly jumped off the car.

He looked eastward with his binoculars, but the binoculars' field of view was limited due to the heavy rain.

And now that it's dark, visibility is even worse.

Therefore, he couldn't see the figure of the King Kong zombie clearly.

"Commander Xiao, I can't see clearly. What should I do now? Do I need precision bombing? If so, please tell me the specific bombing range."

Xiao Jun, sitting far away in the behemoth, frowned. "No way."

"We have limited ammunition, and we don't know the number of King Kong zombies yet. You should observe and find out how many zombies there are. If the number of zombies is not large, try to use tungsten steel alloy bullets for precise point kills!"

"Yes." Zhou Dafu looked eastward with a worried expression.

Fighting zombies in such extreme weather is the most challenging task.

Waaaaah—

The drone flew over the horde of zombies, and after a few minutes, Xiao Jun saw that no more King Kong zombies were coming out of the sea fog.

Based on the images from the sonar detector, these should be the zombies we just detected.

Xiao Jun narrowed his eyes as he looked at the footage from the drone, muttering to himself:
"Hundreds of King Kong zombies, where the hell did they all come from? How could they be so concentrated, and so fast? We've only been here for less than three hours."

His mind was full of questions, but now was not the time for him to be confused.

His eyes turned slightly cold as he looked at the Vajra zombies.

He quickly notified the mecha team, "Song Biao, take ten mechas and go there to fight those Vajra zombies from the east."

"Yes, Commander." Song Biao immediately notified the mecha team members:

"Mechs 1-10, come with me on the expedition!"

"Yes!"

"Roger that!"

Several mechs were charging themselves using the giant external charging cable when they received the combat message, and one by one they unplugged the charging cable.

Mech No. 4.

Su Yuan checked the remaining battery level on the dashboard; it was 80%.

They had used up a lot of power on their way here, and after arriving at the mine, they immediately started charging. In just three hours, they charged the mechs from 20% to 80%.

Su Yuan piloted the mecha, leaping over an armored vehicle.

Sizzle—Sizzle—

The mecha emitted a faint mechanical sound from its key parts.

Running, he followed closely behind Song Biao and arrived at the outermost edge of the first defensive perimeter with the other mechs.

Ten mechs were lined up in a row, and ten meters behind them was the first defensive circle formed by Zhou Dafu and his men.

Zhou Dafu and his men used waste residue to build small combat hills.

The horde of King Kong zombies in the distance is getting closer and closer.

From only being able to see blurry figures, to being able to clearly see these Vajra zombies.

When they were only a few hundred meters away from Song Biao and Zhou Dafu, Song Biao turned his head, looked at Zhou Dafu standing on the roof of the car, pointed to the middle, and used his communicator to contact Zhou Dafu:

"Zhou Dafu, we'll be responsible for the frontal attack on the King Kong zombie horde, you guys take care of the two flanks."

"Okay." Zhou Dafu quickly notified his men: "Attack from the left and right sides, brothers, aim carefully! Leave the Vajra zombies in the middle for the brothers inside the mechs, don't hurt your own people!"

"Yes, Captain!"

"understand!"

"Alright, I couldn't wait any longer. The few zombies that came by earlier weren't enough. In this rainy weather, we need some real manly fighting!"

Song Biao took a deep breath, "Brothers, fight with me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the No. 1 mech he was controlling rushed to the front, and its speed increased faster and faster.

Each step covered three or four meters, and soon they collided with the Vajra zombie at the front.

thump~
Mech No. 1 rammed into an oncoming King Kong zombie and sent it flying. In front of the 5.4-meter-tall mech, the King Kong zombie, which was only 1.6 meters tall when standing upright, looked like a dwarf and had no power to resist at all.

However, the King Kong zombie was extremely tough. After being knocked away, its body moved nimbly in the air, its limbs landing steadily on the ground, and then it charged towards the mech.

pat!pat!
Two giant zombies, one on each side, grabbed the arm of mech number 1 and began to bite it frantically.

However, the mech's outer layer is covered with a nickel-molybdenum alloy, which is extremely hard. No matter how hard the Vajra zombie scratches or bites with its teeth, it still cannot break through the mech's defense.

Song Biao controlled the mecha, and with his right hand, he grabbed the King Kong zombie that had climbed onto his left shoulder, as if he were grabbing a small dog, and pulled it down.

The laser cannon in his left palm emitted a bright blue light, and a beam of high-temperature laser struck the zombie's head.

Do the same thing.

Song Biao then grabbed the Vajra zombie on his right shoulder and shot it dead with a laser cannon.

He had just killed the two Vajra zombies when they rammed his leg.

Click click~
The mecha swayed, but due to its large weight, it was not knocked over despite being rammed by the King Kong zombie.

bang bang!
Song Biao suddenly fired the machine gun in his right hand at the two Vajra zombies.

Less than three meters apart, the two zombies had their heads blown off.

Before he could catch his breath, four more Vajra zombies set their sights on him.
The battlefield was extremely fierce.

These ten mechs confronted the King Kong zombies head-on, with almost every mech facing a dozen or even twenty King Kong zombies at the same time.

Sometimes you'll see seven or eight giant zombies wrapped around the mech, like a skin condition.

Whenever this happens, other mechs are needed to help pull away the Vajra zombies that are wrapped around the mechs.

Mech No. 4.

Panting heavily, Su Yuan piloted his mecha, fighting valiantly.

However, there were simply too many King Kong zombies he was facing. More than thirty King Kong zombies pounced on him one after another. Before he could even react, these zombies had wrapped the mecha he was controlling into a mummy.

thump!
Under the onslaught of dozens of King Kong zombies, his mech was overwhelmed and pinned to the ground.

The King Kong zombies were incredibly agile, each one even more nimble than a monkey.

Mechs are inherently slow, so they can overwhelm a small number of King Kong zombies with their strength and defense. However, they will be overwhelmed when faced with a larger number of King Kong zombies.

"Number 4, Number 4 is requesting backup!" Su Yuan cried out for help.

The fifth and sixth mechs next to them quickly ran over.

Like removing fleas from a dog, he swung his hand and threw the Vajra zombie clinging to the No. 4 mech more than ten meters away.

A short while later, Su Yuan controlled the mecha to stand up again.

"Damn it!" Su Yuan looked at the battery level; it was down to only 70%.

Just now, he was pinned down by the King Kong zombie, and he was controlling the mecha to resist the overloaded transport, which caused the power consumption to increase sharply.

After all, it was being held by dozens of Vajra zombies, which severely restricted the operation of the mech's key components. If the operation was not smooth, the power supply would be increased to enhance the power output.

Therefore, in just ten minutes of combat, it consumed ten percent of the battery.

He quickly maneuvered the heavy machine gun on his shoulder and fired at the King Kong zombies that were charging towards him again from a short distance away.

da da da da~
