I can find treasures in my dreams.

Chapter 409: The Most Serious Test Since the Age of Natural Disasters
The deep night completely enveloped Guangren City.

The expansion speed of the extremely cold cyclone has now become very slow.

After research, experts from the Jameni Federation believe that it will not be long before the frost disaster area will begin to shrink and then gradually disappear.

All major media outlets in Dongli began to broadcast this news repeatedly.

At this moment.

A huge army is staying on the outskirts of Guangren City.

These are the federal troops dispatched from the Hanley base.

With a total strength of two divisions, totaling 22,000 men, and more than 2,000 tanks, armored vehicles, trucks, repair vehicles and other vehicles, they surrounded the entire Guangren City.

Wilson, crammed into the bed of an Army truck in his camouflage cold-weather suit, felt like a pig headed for the slaughter.

This feeling is terrible.

He chewed gum, listened to the howling of the extreme cold cyclone, and couldn't help cursing: "Fxxk!"

Last year, all the major countries in the world began to expand their military forces. The Federation, with a population of 8 million, also decided to expand its military by 2000 million.

Wilson had just lost his job at the time, and in order to make a living, he signed up to join the federal army.

After a brief two-month training, his infantry company was sent to the distant country of Dongli.

After spending a month adapting here, he began to feel that Dongli Country was a good place.

Because once you leave the base, no matter where you go, you’ll see cautious faces.

There are also a large number of Toray special service industry practitioners around the base, and the prices are much cheaper than in the Federation.

In addition, Wilson has neither a wife nor a girlfriend, so he can play however he wants, so he feels it is really great to stay in Dongli Country.

But now, he felt very unhappy.

Wilson exhaled and complained, "We were ordered to come to Guangren City to blow the cold wind in the middle of the night. Those bastards above didn't treat us as human beings!"

The soldiers around nodded in unison.

Although military cold-resistant clothing is warmer than the civilian version, the cargo compartment is also a closed structure and has heating inside.

But the temperature in this area had dropped to minus eighty degrees Celsius, and was affected by the extreme cold. It was as cold as an ice cave, and the soldiers were freezing.

At this time.

A command was heard from the headsets worn by everyone at the same time: "Attention everyone, the order has come down from above, everyone enter Guangren City."

It was the voice of our company commander, "Hanks".

Hanks is over 40 years old and treats his subordinates very caringly, so everyone calls him "Dad Hanks" or simply "Dad".

"Buzz!"

The truck shook and started slowly.

Wilson exhaled and muttered, "I think it's better to patrol the frost disaster area than to stay where we are."

The other soldiers nodded in unison.

Everyone had the same idea. It was indeed a very difficult thing for the company to stay where it was and do nothing.

Dad's voice continued: "Everyone, there is a very high concentration of extreme cold air in the frost disaster area. If you feel something is wrong, insert the 'Fire Demon Fuel Cell' immediately. Do you understand?"

When Wilson heard the words "Fire Demon Fuel Cell", he immediately looked constipated.

An old black man next to him whispered, "I don't use this damn thing."

After entering the era of superpowers, Daxia has been developing new technologies one after another.

Although the Jamani Federation is not as powerful as Daxia, it has also developed a lot of black technologies.

The Fire Demon fuel cell is one of them.

Its core material is an extract from the Chihuo coal mine.

A palm-sized Fire Demon fuel cell weighs less than half a kilogram and can release up to five degrees of electricity.

Such a powerful energy storage capacity is stronger than Daxia's super crystal battery.

So when this battery first came out, the Western Hemisphere media, led by the Gameni Federation, praised it to the skies, calling it "the greatest invention of the 21st century."

Unfortunately, it didn't take long for the Fire Demon fuel cell to fall from its pedestal.

Because this thing has a serious drawback.

When the red coal extract in the battery reacts, it releases a strange burning smell.

If the reaction time exceeds a certain limit and the burning smell accumulates to a certain level, it may ignite surrounding objects.

This is such a joke!

Therefore, many people jokingly call the Fire Demon fuel cell the arson battery.

Federal scientists have tried many improvements but have been unable to solve this problem.

Because this is an inherent property of the extract.

If the extract is processed to remove this property, the battery's energy storage capacity will be greatly reduced.

To this day, the FireDemon fuel cell is rarely mentioned by major media outlets in the Western Hemisphere.

However, the Gameni people still found an application scenario for the Fire Demon fuel cell.

The Union Army placed a large order for these batteries to be used by Union soldiers to power cold weather clothing.

Because the battery can release hot air, it is surprisingly effective in driving away the cold.

As long as the battery is not used continuously for too long, there is no need to worry about fire.

But soldiers were reluctant to use the Fire Demon fuel cells.

Because the burning smell will accumulate in the human body, it will bring many strange side effects.

For example, dry mouth, blisters on the tongue and mouth, heat rash all over the body, itching and insomnia at night, nosebleeds, hair loss, and constipation.

There is even a side effect that is difficult to talk about - the inability to do things.

That's why Lao Hei said "I don't need it".

soon.

As the convoy continued to move forward, Wilson suddenly felt a chill all over his body.

This chill was extremely strange, as if it chilled deep into the bone marrow and then seeped into the soul.

Wilson shuddered all over and couldn't help cursing, "Shit! What's going on?"

Dad's voice sounded again, answering his question: "The company has now entered the frost disaster area. I repeat, this place is very strange. If you can't bear it, use the Fire Demon Fuel Cell.

"Even if Dick can't use it temporarily, it's better than freezing to death. Besides, the side effects will gradually subside. Just think of it as giving Dick a break."

Wilson didn't say anything, but just silently raised his middle finger.

Dad finally got to the point: "The higher-ups sent the 156th and 157th divisions into Guangren City. The real purpose was to search for a rare treasure called Frost Ganoderma."

The company commander took a minute to briefly introduce Shuangzhi.

Finally, the old man said, "This time, the higher-ups have offered a bounty. Anyone who finds a frost fungus will receive a special reward of $100 million, and they don't have to pay any taxes."

Another soldier named Trenton said excitedly, "Wow!" "That's a lot of money!"

Wilson's breathing became heavier.

Lao Hei even said "shit" several times.

As long as you find a Frost Ganoderma, you can instantly become a millionaire. Although the Jamaican dollar has depreciated a lot nowadays, it is still a lot of money.

*
Tens of meters away.

The company commander was sitting in the passenger seat of a military off-road vehicle, listening to the voice on the communication channel.

This is the voice of the division commander: "Hanks, can I trust you?"

The other party is communicating directly with the company commander through a private channel.

Hanks immediately responded, "Of course sir!"

The division commander continued, "In the A244 area ahead, we suspected that Daxia's superpowers were found. They were equipped with the Tiangong III exoskeleton, which is what the Federation wants most.

"So I need a group of very brave soldiers to go and investigate the situation in the A244 area and find these Daxia superpowers."

Hanks didn't hesitate for a second: "Sir, our company will definitely complete this mission!"

The company commander knew very well that this was simply a suicide mission, because ordinary soldiers would only have one way to go, and that was death, when facing a person with special abilities.

The commander was very satisfied: "Very good! Your loyalty to the Federation will surely be adequately rewarded!"

Hanks immediately smiled his "daddy" smile.

He picked up the tactical terminal, circled area A244, and gave orders to his subordinates: "Boys, one of our search areas is area A244. I hope you can find one or more Frost Ganoderma and get the green bonus."

Many excited screams immediately rang out in the channel.

"Shuangzhi, here I come!"

"The bonus is mine, don't try to snatch it from me."

Hanks laughed suddenly.

According to federal military regulations, the commander does not need to go deep into the front line, so he had no intention of entering the A244 area at all.

It is enough for him to let his young men go on the mission of committing suicide, and he himself is only responsible for promotion and wealth.

Anyway, there are enough soldiers in the federation. Now too many people are unemployed. The federation has the intention to launch the next round of conscription, and it is expected to recruit at least another 500 million people.

Hanks looked at his subordinates and ordered, "Drive slower."

The subordinate immediately released the accelerator.

Hanks sat in his seat, quietly watching a series of red tail lights moving forward, and soon disappeared.

*
Not long after.

The entire infantry company entered the A244 area.

There are three residential areas in this area, and the company has three platoons under it, with one platoon responsible for each residential area.

Wilson heard the platoon leader's order: "Guys, according to the information provided by the superiors, Frost Fungus usually grows in hidden places.

"Our platoon is in charge of Residential Area 2. It would be best if you form a team of three to four and explore each building in this area."

The platoon leader paused and said, "Okay! Now let's start the treasure hunt! Be careful not to freeze to death."

This mission was characterized as a "treasure hunt," which shows how relaxed the mentality of these Gameni soldiers was.

Wilson reached out and patted Trenton and Blackie, saying, "Let's form a team of three, shall we?"

The two had no objection.

Wilson suggested, "Dude, everyone else is searching residential buildings, so the competition will probably be fierce. How about we try our luck in the underground garage?"

Trenton immediately expressed his support: "I think this is a great idea."

Lao Hei said simply: "Then go ahead."

The three of them pushed open the cargo door, jumped out of the car, and quickly entered the underground garage following the instructions of the high-definition map.

Although it was pitch black underground, nothing was a problem with the night vision goggles.

After walking for more than ten meters.

Lao Hei suddenly said, "I feel a little scared. Is there any danger here?"

Wilson shrugged. "If there really were monsters here, with so many vehicles entering the community just now, they should have surrounded us. But nothing happened, which means there are no monsters here at all."

Trenton laughed and said, "There should only be yellow monkeys that have frozen to death in the community. You are not afraid of dead people, are you?"

Lao Hei was a little embarrassed and annoyed by what he said: "Fxxk U, you are the one who is afraid of death!"

Wilson couldn't help wanting to get rich: "Let's split up and look for it."

The three men each held a metal stick and walked in different directions, hitting the ground with the metal sticks.

The sounds of "bang bang" echoed in the darkness.

This is a simple way to search for Frost Ganoderma.

According to the information given above, although Frostzhi has optical invisibility capabilities, it is not impossible to find it.

When other objects approach, a layer of white frost will quickly condense on the surface.

If it is a metal with good thermal conductivity, the temperature change can be felt immediately.

A quarter of an hour passed.

Wilson couldn't stand the cold anymore, so he took out the Fire Demon fuel cell and inserted it into the card slot of his cold-resistant suit.

"Click~"

Accompanied by a soft sound.

The soldier immediately felt an indescribable feeling of heat spreading throughout his body.

The biting cold was immediately relieved, and my hands and feet became a little more flexible.

Wilson exhaled and asked in the channel: "Hey guys, have you found Frost?"

The response came immediately.

"No!" "Me neither!"

Wilson said "Fxxk" again: "It seems that this 100 million is not so easy to earn."

The guy took a few steps, swung the metal stick in his right hand, and hit a pillar next to him as if to vent his anger.

Something strange happened.

Before the metal rod touched the pillar, it suddenly stopped in mid-air, as if it was caught by an invisible hand.

Wilson was stunned for a moment and subconsciously pulled the metal stick.

But the metal rod did not move at all.

next second.

A human figure covered with white hair appeared out of nowhere next to the pillar, holding a metal stick in its hand.

It was the white-haired corpse.

This sudden scene frightened Wilson greatly.

He dropped the metal stick as quickly as possible, held the gun hanging on his chest with both hands, and prepared to shoot.

But it's too late.

The white-haired corpse first opened its mouth and sprayed out a cloud of white mist, which instantly hit Wilson's face.

Wilson only felt his face lose consciousness in an instant, and both eyes felt a sharp pain.

A layer of ice condensed on his face, a large number of facial cells died, and his nerves were damaged by the cold, so he lost consciousness.

The vitreous humor in his eyeball, a colloid that is 99% water, solidified and expanded due to the cold, causing his eyeball to burst and produce severe pain.

In other words, Wilson was blind.

The white-haired corpse opened its mouth and let out a hiss, then pounced forward, grabbed Wilson's shoulders with both hands, opened its mouth and bit his neck.

The moment the monster opened its mouth, it could be clearly seen that its teeth were no longer human teeth, but sharp icicles that seemed to be made of ice.

This ice tooth easily pierced through the cold-resistant clothing and then penetrated into the neck muscles.

The white-haired corpse shook its head suddenly and tore off a large piece of flesh.

"Ah~"

Wilson let out a shrill scream.

Blood gushed out of the wound like a fountain; the carotid artery had been severed.

The white-haired corpse threw Wilson to the ground and began to bite the flesh on his neck.

"Click! Click!"

This is the sound of ice teeth gnawing on bones.

Wilson was in so much pain that he lost consciousness.

The panicked voices of his companions came from the headphones integrated into his helmet.

"Dude, what's wrong with you?!"

"Damn it! There must be a monster!"

"Let's evacuate first, here...ah!"

Another scream.

This is Lao Hei being attacked by a vicious hand, no, it should be said by a vicious mouth.

Now only Trenton was left alive.

This guy was so scared that he picked up his submachine gun and started shooting indiscriminately.

"Da da!"

Gunshots rang out in the underground garage.

Trenton also yelled: "Damn monster, come out now!"

Subsequently.

The monster really came out.

A white-haired corpse suddenly appeared and pounced over quickly.

Trenton reacted quickly and immediately pointed the gun at the white-haired corpse, his finger pressing the trigger hard.

"Da da!"

Several bullets hit the white-haired corpse.

But the white-haired corpse just shook a few times without feeling any pain. It rushed closer and knocked Trenton down directly.

The fact that the white-haired corpse can withstand bullets as if nothing happened is enough to show how powerful it is.

Ten seconds later.

Trenton's head was chewed off.

*
Hundreds of meters away.

Company Commander Hanks heard a lot of screams through the communication channel.

"Ah~"

"Help!"

"There are monsters!"

"Run!"

"We need support!"

Hanks realized in an instant that the company was doomed.

So many soldiers were attacked by monsters at the same time. This was undoubtedly a trap.

It is absolutely impossible to organize an effective counterattack when personnel are highly dispersed.

at the same time.

The company commander was deeply grateful in his heart that he did not enter the residential area, otherwise he would probably not have been able to come back alive.

Hanks looked at the driver next to him and gave a decisive order: "Get out of here immediately!"

This man, who was regarded as a father by all his subordinates, personally sent his subordinates into a desperate situation, and abandoned them without hesitation when they needed help the most.

The driver was also frightened and quickly stepped on the accelerator and turned the steering wheel sharply.

at this time.

A huge white shadow jumped down from the top of a building more than ten meters away and hit the off-road vehicle heavily.

"boom!"

Just heard a bang.

The off-road vehicle overturned and slid for several meters before stopping.

The white shadow rolled in the snow and stood up directly.

Hanks was knocked unconscious.

He groaned, looked out of the car window, his pupils suddenly shrank, and a deep fear flashed in them.

This was a strange and creepy monster with two heads and four arms, and it looked like two human bodies fused together.

This is the corpse-controlling monster that remotely controls the zombies.

The military off-road vehicle weighed several tons, but it was easily overturned. The roof was deeply dented and the driver was killed.

"ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss"

The two heads of the corpse-controlling monster roared at the same time.

A dozen white-haired corpses suddenly appeared, rushed over, dragged Hanks out of the car, and gnawed him to death.

The above is just a microcosm of the battlefield.

In other areas of Guangren City, every troop that entered was attacked without exception.

The northern part of the city.

A group of white-haired corpses were hiding in a big pit on the side of the road. Suddenly, they crawled out from under the snow and blew out a large breath of cold air at an armored vehicle.

The row of wheels on the left side of the armored vehicle were instantly frozen by ice.

The cold air seeped into the car, instantly freezing the occupants.

More white-haired corpses swarmed over and actually overturned the armored vehicle.

They did not rush to break through the armored vehicle, but rushed towards the second armored vehicle in groups.

"Da da!"

The vehicle-mounted machine gun exploded.

The white-haired corpses in the front were immediately knocked to the ground, and the powerful 20mm shells also broke the hands and feet of many of the white-haired corpses.

But the white-haired corpses showed a terrible desire to attack. Even though their limbs were mutilated, they still crawled towards the armored vehicles.

The other white-haired corpses quickly dispersed, approached the armored vehicle from different directions, and spewed out cold air again.

One minute later.

The four armored vehicles here were all overturned by the monsters.

South part of the city.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, a wall was broken.

A corpse-controlling monster rushed out of the hole and blew a large breath of cold air towards a tank.

Compared with the freezing air of the white-haired corpse, the freezing air sprayed out by the corpse-controlling monster is more condensed and ten times larger in volume.

The moment the freezing air hit the tank, this huge guy weighing more than 50 tons instantly turned into a big block of ice.

The crew members inside the tank turned into ice sculptures.

The other tank was frightened and turned around and ran away.

The corpse-controlling monster rushed forward and slammed its body into the tank, making a dull "bang" sound.

It used its right hand to swipe and broke the track with its bare hands.

The two divisions sent by the Gameni to search for Shuangzhi were suddenly attacked by monsters and suffered heavy losses.

Hundreds of meters away.

An even more horrifying scene unfolded.

More than five thousand white-haired zombies poured out from buildings and launched an overwhelming attack on an infantry regiment.

They are quite agile in the snow, run very fast, and are fearless.

As long as the distance is within ten meters, they will spit out cold air, causing serious frostbite to the Gameni soldiers, making them immediately lose their combat effectiveness.

After a while, this infantry regiment of more than 2,000 people was completely overwhelmed by the group of ice zombies.

In the sky.

The six black crows flew by silently, taking in everything below.

It activated the mind link and reported: "We found eight corpse-controlling monsters earlier, and six more just appeared.

“So far, a total of fourteen corpse-controlling monsters have appeared in Guangren City, which is more than we imagined.

"Each corpse-controlling monster controls at least 3,000 icy corpses, and at most controls a massive swarm of more than 50,000 corpses.

“There is some connection between them, because these fourteen corpse-controlling monsters commanded the zombies to attack at the same time.

“According to my observation, the two divisions sent by the Gamenians suffered heavy losses, and at least half of the soldiers will remain in Guangren City forever.

“I also noticed that the strength of the corpse-controlling monsters is positively correlated with the number of corpses they control. The more corpses they control, the stronger they are.

"Based on this, we can judge that the corpse-controlling monster is most likely a relatively rare 'Lord Life'."

Yang Fan replied: "Your judgment is correct, they are indeed the Lord's life."

The so-called "lord monster" is a life form that naturally masters a trace of laws.

Even in the vast primordial world, lord life is a relatively rare monster.

Yang Fan paused for a moment, and then continued: "This frost disaster should be the most severe test that Canglan Star has faced since the era of natural disasters. The number of deaths worldwide is estimated to be far beyond our expectations."

If it was just a frost disaster, it would not be too scary. As long as there was a sound infrastructure, not many people would die.

But with the addition of the lord's life,

Yang Fan's tone was filled with a hint of smile: "Thanks to the efforts of the Gameni people, they have helped the whole world understand the horror of frost disasters."

This time, the Gameni people were severely tricked by him, using human lives to test the intensity of the frost disaster.
