You've become the warden, and you're telling me I'm an undercover agent?

Chapter 312: Fortress War! Errors and Loopholes! ( words)
The battlefield below was brutal, and Chi Ping was like a god sitting high above the battlefield.

Chi Ping sat on the vulture's back as it flew high and steady. The wind brushed his hair back, making his face look even more angular.

Does he have the power to stop this war?
some.

But what happens after it’s stopped?
This is not a simple massacre of the weak by the strong, but a fight between two races for the right to survive.

Essentially, it is a lack of survival materials and the population far exceeds the carrying capacity of the environment.

Below, due to the existence of the Flame Ghost, victory tilted towards the tribe.

As long as Chi Ping takes action and kills the Flame Ghost, the tribe's army will be defeated instantly;
He could also use his intimidation to force Flame Ghost to lead the team to retreat.

But then?

Then the tribe would starve or freeze to death due to lack of survival supplies.

To put it simply, it's like a killer tiger hunting cattle and sheep. If it doesn't hunt, they will starve to death.

The root cause of this world war lies in survival resources.

Chi Ping was not yet able to mediate this. Even if he could drag the Federation world from the other side of the boundary gate in, and even if supplies could pass through the boundary gate, he could not supply both civilizations with the power of one country.

This was a difficult problem that gave Chi Ping a headache. The only S-rank who knew some inside information was unwilling to come forward and communicate.

The "unknowable" high above the dome is damn damn it.

------

The war is raging.

Thousands of mammoths ran like drums.

Soldiers far away in the fortress could feel the vibrations coming from the ground.

The team leader who had recruited Rachel had already arranged for his men to set up the artillery. The soldiers were inside the fortifications, their guns loaded.

It would be a lie to say that I wasn't nervous. The other party was very powerful.

The squad leader touched his chest pocket, where he kept his important belongings, and then comforted his soldiers one by one. The soldiers more or less responded with a forced smile.

But the next second, the firelight illuminated their faces.

The soldiers underground subconsciously looked up, and then they saw a fire dragon circling above their heads.

Huge fire dragon!
The entire body of the fire dragon even exceeded the fortress.

Because it was not flying very high, in the eyes of the soldiers, the fire dragon almost occupied the entire field of vision!

It feels like the sky is about to collapse, extremely oppressive!
The soldiers' faces were filled with fear and confusion, bathed in the firelight. For a moment they were dazed.

Why should I participate in this war?

Along with the gun in his hand, it became heavy.

Even the team leader was a little nervous, but he quickly realized that he wanted to help boost the morale of his brothers.

But the fire dragon didn't give him a chance.

I saw a huge fire dragon diving towards the fortress!

The soldiers on the ground instinctively tried to dodge—

On top of the mountain vulture, Chi Ping looked at the fire dragon below him.

"Do you want me to go down and help?" It was Xiaoyun who spoke. The tribe directly attacked the fortress, but Xiaoyun's beast army had been watching.

Without Chi Ping's instructions, she couldn't act rashly.

"If you want to help, you can go." Chi Ping said.

Xiaoyun didn't say who he was helping, and Chi Ping didn't ask.

From a purely standpoint, Xiaoyun hoped that the Fortress would win. After all, he was a human on the side of the United Government, and in her eyes, the tribe was still a monster.

Hearing this, Xiaoyun pursed his lips and stopped talking.

Then, she saw the fire dragon plunge down. Just as it was about to hit the fortress, a light curtain appeared from the fortress's perimeter, completely blocking the roaring fire dragon.

This scene really gave the people below a lot of confidence.

Federal technology, photon wall.

This was originally the cutting-edge technology of the later period of the United Government, but after the catastrophe, there were not enough resources to maintain these things.

In addition, the industrial system suffered a major blow. Without an industrial foundation, everything before us is empty talk.

The remaining photon wall equipment has been placed on the outer defense line. More importantly, the photon wall consumes a lot of energy and can only last for two or three minutes. After resisting three or four large-scale attacks, it will enter an overload state.

But the Flame Ghost, after a short rest, can launch the same attack again.

"Although the coalition government has declined, it still has some assets."

Chi Ping said, Xiaoyun nodded secretly, if these devices were not too bulky, they would indeed be very good equipment.

The flames on the ground flickered several times, and finally a hole was blown open in the fortress's front line. Even Chi Ping, high in the sky, could hear the screams, shouts, gunfire, and artillery fire from below.

Blood and fire, the danger of death overwhelms the life instinct, causing everyone to burst forth with strength far beyond their normal capabilities. Adrenaline sends the body into a frenzy, death rubs shoulders with death, and the thin line between life and death is the limit.

The team leader had been burned halfway through his body, and only about ten people remained in his team. They were fighting and retreating, and had already reached the inner lines of the fortress.

As long as he looked up, he could see the garrison captain Krodo on the high wall. As the only A-level ability user in the fortress, his survival was directly related to the outcome of the war.

But the garrison commander was not in good condition either. He used the firepower of the fortress to resist the attack of the flame ghost.

He was a hairy man, and now, under the scorching flames, his hair was slightly singed and curled. The moment sweat seeped out of his skin, it was burned into sticky dirt by the high temperature.

The team leader saw the garrison commander pointing to the other side of the battlefield, and said something to Zhang Qianye and Rachel from the reconnaissance battalion.

Then, Zhang Qianye and Rachel walked down the fortress wall with serious faces.

I hope the garrison commander can find a solution to the problem.

The team leader prayed silently, and then he saw his immediate superior, the commander of the fortress guard battalion, come to him with Zhang Qianye and Rachel.

"I need you to break out—"

This is what the garrison battalion commander said.

They arranged more than a dozen teams to break out and seek help.

The message for help from other fortresses had been sent out long ago, but it would take time for the reinforcements to arrive. So, based on the intelligence passed on by Rachel, Krodo learned that the commander of the beast camp was a human.

Humans and monsters are naturally opposed.

Moreover, the owner of the Beast Camp had released the previous groups of scouts. Therefore, Krodo immediately concluded that the owner of the Beast Camp might not have too much ill will towards the fortress.

So, they promised rich resources and wanted to see if they could get help from the beast camp.

The people responsible for passing the message were Rachel and Zhang Qianye.

In order to ensure their safety, more than ten teams of bait were arranged to attract firepower during the breakout.

The team leader and his team are one of the baits.

Rachel looked at the one or two hundred soldiers around her who looked nervous, and her head was confused.

Her mood at the moment was extremely complicated. She originally just wanted to get some compressed dry food, which would be great if she could fill her stomach for a few days.

But who knew that this would suddenly become the key to the survival of the entire fortress.

The little guy was a little bit at a loss when suddenly faced with a big event and big responsibility.

The soldiers below also had varying expressions: some forcibly suppressed fear, some lowered their heads to hide their frustration, and some were uneasy and courageous.

They had no choice but to hold the guns tightly in their hands, but most of them could not control their own destiny.

The saddest thing is that even after rushing out, Rachel still doesn't know whether Xiaoyun or Chi Ping will lend a helping hand.

But our side has to sacrifice more than a hundred lives first.

Vultures soared in the sky, Chi Ping sat under the moonlight, and the villains on the ground continued to fight each other.

"The fortress won't hold out much longer."

Xiaoyun suddenly said this for no reason. The tribe's offensive became more and more fierce, and the entire army had already pressed forward.

Ordinary submachine guns could not effectively kill the woolly mammoths, and only heavy machine guns could make them retreat. But above the woolly mammoths, there were also tribal warriors.

Compared with the people in the fortress, they are more fearless and daring.

But soon, the fortress's ability users launched a counterattack against the tribal warriors, which also attracted Chi Ping's attention.

The squad leader was one of the counter-attackers.

The nineteen people in their team formed a cone formation with armored vehicles leading the way.

While the armored vehicles weren't afraid of the mammoths, they were no match for their sheer numbers. After several rounds of collisions, the armored vehicle's tracks were filled with mammoth remains, and directly in front of the vehicles, a growing pile of mammoth carcasses piled up.

Like a small mountain, blocking the way out and life.

The armored vehicle's machine gunners had already been replaced three times, the remaining two having been torn to pieces by the tribe's ability users. Their remains mingled with the mud and water on the ground, crushed by the tracks, trampled by the giant elephants, and blasted into shattered pieces by artillery shells, only to return to the mud and water, their bodies indistinguishable from one another.

Streams of heat flowed along the team leader's forehead and collar, and he could no longer tell whether it was sweat or blood.

He heard that when people are extremely excited or nervous, adrenaline will be secreted very quickly, allowing them to ignore pain to a certain extent.

I think that’s how it feels.

The breakout team was still near the fortress and had not gotten far before they were surrounded by tribal warriors.

They drew a lot of fire and men, and the decoy plan was successful, so he died.

Along with the brothers who fought with him.

When the strange-looking monster, "it", cut off half of the team leader's body with its elytra, his body fell into the cold mud and water.

On his chest was a piece of paper containing his will. To ensure that his will would be passed on after his death, he had written many copies, and most people in the camp had one.

The content was simple, just stating his name, the fortress he served in, and the distribution of property.

1. I have 726 points. 200 points for Luobo, he's in my team, if he's still alive. 120 points for the rest of the guys to buy cigarettes. The rest for Huanhuan, my girlfriend.

2. All the treasures I collected—the aluminum cigarette case, the pre-disaster kerosene lighter, the leather belt, and so on—I gave them all to my comrades. I also had a heart-shaped stone that I drilled a hole in so I could give it to Huanhuan as a necklace.

3. My clothes, blankets, and other belongings are for the children who help wash our clothes in the fortress. If they haven't been kicked out, please remember to wash them for me and give them to them.

4. I have been serving for three years, and in a little while I will be able to draw a spot to live in the bunker. If possible, please give the chance to Huanhuan.

Huanhuan is the team leader's girlfriend. She works in the fortress next door as a battlefield nurse.

After the catastrophe, communication became difficult, and they rarely saw each other. They only had ten minutes of talk time each week. He cherished every time, until one day.

He and Huanhuan were complaining about their boss when they were suddenly interrupted by her. She said abruptly:
"I miss you."

There was no beginning or end, and after two seconds, there was a sobbing sound.

Long-distance relationships are indeed troublesome, let alone in the apocalypse?
The team leader had no choice but to comfort her. It would have been fine if he hadn't comforted her, but as soon as he comforted her, she poured out all her grievances.

She cried louder and louder, but the team leader couldn't hear her tears through the phone.

Instead, I felt like a donkey that fell on the ice and couldn't stand up.

He opened his throat and kept shouting "Ang ah" and "Ang ah".

He couldn't help but burst out laughing. Fortunately, in the apocalypse, everyone was pretty relaxed, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

······
Scenes from the past flashed back in the captain's mind.

He suddenly realized a problem:
"I'm about to die. How can I make Huanhuan forget me?"

When the squad leader was killed, the people he was protecting were running desperately. Rachel had been in the wilderness for many years and had seen many deaths. But this was the first time she had seen someone die protecting her. For a moment, she was speechless.

She had come here to get supplies, intending to escape once she was out of the fortress. If she had a bit more guts, she would have met Xiaoyun, conveyed her request for help, and then left.

There was no way she could stay in the fortress anyway.

There were many people like the team leader, and they were also dying. This cast a shadow over Rachel's heart.

After running for their lives, they finally saw the camp of the ferocious beasts, and the pursuers behind them were also driven away by the roars of the ferocious beasts.

Chi Ping, who was high in the sky, heard Xiaoyun report that someone was coming, and also came to the tent.

Rachel looked much more miserable than the last time I saw her.

She was covered in blood, and it was hard to tell whether it was the enemy's, her teammates', or her own. Her eyes were particularly bright, and she seemed to have grown a little braver.

She told Xiaoyun about asking for help, and Xiaoyun turned his gaze to Chi Ping.

"what do you think?"

Chi Ping rubbed his temples. In fact, when he was high in the sky, he had also seen some tragic scenes on the ground.

But the problem is, it is true that the people on the coalition government side are miserable; there are also miserable people on the tribal side.

With Chi Ping's strength, as long as the S-class didn't leave, if he took one side, it would be a huge blow to the other side.

It can almost affect the destruction of civilization and victory in war.

He came this time as a bystander, mainly to find out the relevant information about the millennium catastrophe.

and so--

Chi Ping shook his head: "I can't help you."

Xiaoyun still had a smile on her face. She walked to Rachel with her graceful figure and said, "Did you hear that?"

Rachel was stunned for a moment. She had thought she would fail, but she had never expected that she would feel a little lost after the failure.

She had no feelings for the fortress to begin with, but perhaps the desperate fighting of the lower-class soldiers touched her. After Chi Ping's refusal, she sighed for the soldiers' inevitable fate.

At this moment, she could still hear explosions and gunshots coming from the direction of the fortress.

Every explosion could take the lives of a group of soldiers.

She began to beg Chi Ping, hoping that Chi Ping would help.

In the wilderness, the least valuable things are empty things like face and dignity. If Chi Ping is willing to rescue, Rachel would kneel down and kiss the back of his feet.

But Chi Ping did not respond——

She straightened up slowly and sighed.

In this way, she has done her best and has done everything she can for the fortress.

Next, she will leave the fortress, continue to look for supplies, and live her own wandering life.

But at this moment, Xiaoyun spoke.

"Sir." Xiaoyun had a smile on his face, as if joking: "Do you remember that I still owe Miss Rachel something?"

To be precise, it was Rachel who showed Chi Ping the way. Chi Ping wanted to thank her, but he had nothing to thank her for, so Xiao Yun took over the favor.

At present, Chi Ping helped Xiao Yun tame so many ferocious beasts. Naturally, he had repaid Xiao Yun's favor, so the only interaction left was between Xiao Yun and Rachel.

Looking at Xiaoyun's appearance at this moment, Chi Ping immediately understood what he was thinking.

Xiaoyun still wants to help the fortress.

But Chi Ping didn't speak, so she naturally couldn't act rashly. However, Rachel's relationship gave Xiaoyun a reason to help the fortress.

The reason for "returning a favor" was Chi Ping, so I don't think Chi Ping would object.

I have to say that the older you are, the higher your emotional intelligence is.

Thinking of this, Chi Ping said to Xiao Yun:
"as you like."

Xiaoyun nodded immediately and said to Rachel:
"Little sister, I'll do as you wish. Your favor has been used up."

With that, she stood up and walked out of the tent.

Rachel was confused.

She never thought that her favor would play such a big role!
but!

Rachel was very upset again!
If I had told her earlier that this favor was so useful, she would definitely exchange it for more supplies!
Now it seems that Rachel originally wanted to take advantage of the Fortress, but ended up letting the Fortress take advantage of her?

What a hell!
Rachel had no choice but to follow Xiaoyun out, and saw that after Xiaoyun let out a long roar, her army of beasts began to move towards the fortress!
On the fortress wall, Krodo was ecstatic:

"I knew Rachel was an intelligence genius! A diplomat!

“She mobilized the A-ranks, she saved the fortress!
"She is our hero!"

Then, they saw from afar huge mountain vultures and many ferocious beasts rushing towards the tribe.

Yan Gui also faced Xiao Yun, who was surrounded by many ferocious beasts!

The situation on the battlefield reversed instantly!

But the next second, Yan Gui and Xiao Yun, who were high in the sky, heard an electronic sound at the same time:

"mistake!"

Then a ray of residual light shot out from the sky, passed through their bodies, and they both fell!
In a corner of the battlefield, the three Basang brothers suffered the same treatment as Yan Gui and Xiao Yun, but their treatment was even more serious.

After a cry of "error", his head was blown off!

Ikehira, who was in the tent, also heard a voice:
"Loophole!"

Immediately afterwards, Xiaoyun and Yangui in the sky plummeted down. As Xiaoyun lost consciousness, the beast army on the ground fell into chaos.

The warriors of the tribe rushed forward to protect their apostle.

As for Chi Ping, he saw an extremely blurry outline of a human figure.

"who are you?"

Ikehira asked.
