In the apocalypse, I hoarded goods and handed over my storage space to the government.

Outside.

"Su Ran, the way you were acting just now made you look like a villain."

Bai Lu tore open the lollipop wrapper and mumbled something indistinctly.

"The villain?"

Su Ran gave a self-deprecating laugh.

He remembered his past life.

At that time, no one gave them time to write their wills, nor did they have the cover of artillery fire from regular troops.

When the red rain fell, everyone faced the man-eating monsters with their bare hands.

Those who survived were all evil spirits who crawled out by stepping on the corpses of their own kind.

"I'm a great philanthropist. If playing the villain can save their lives, I don't mind being even more ruthless."

Su Ran abruptly stopped, her gaze sharp as a knife: "Don't you have any sense of the apocalypse?"

Bai Lu and Ye Xiao looked at each other, exchanged a glance, and both shook their heads.

Upon seeing this, Su Ran sighed heavily, "Sigh... never mind, you'll see for yourselves tomorrow."

"Bai Lu, how's your shooting practice going?"

When Bai Lu heard Su Ran ask about her training results, she proudly raised her chin.

"I have completely mastered it."

and many more.

Completely proficient?

Didn't you only have the gun for less than six hours?

Su Ran turned around in surprise, frowning as she asked, "When you say 'completely proficient,' do you mean knowing how to pull the trigger, or something else?"

After hearing this, Bai Lu rolled her eyes dramatically.

"Big brother! Of course you can hit the bullseye! The bullseye! The bullseye!"

She stretched her arms behind her back and yawned.

"The instructor said I was a genius. Actually, I felt it was pretty simple. I just looked at the target through the scope, fired when I felt it was close enough, and then felt the bullet's trajectory. I hit the target every time."

Su Ran and Ye Xiao, both of whom had experience in shooting, were both greatly shocked.

"Ahem!"

Su Ran straightened her voice and said, "While there's still time, we can practice on moving targets again. After all, zombies and mutated beasts aren't fixed targets."

Bai Lu said, "The first thing I practiced was with the moving target."

Su Ran: "..."

All I can say is that S-level talent is indeed terrifying.

"Ye Xiao".

"I'm here." Ye Xiao immediately stood up straight.

Keep an eye on those new recruits tomorrow.

Su Ran said softly, "Although it is said that life and death are predestined, if there are really people who are fighting for their lives but encounter danger, we should try to save them if we can."

"What if it's the kind that just screams, runs around, and holds everyone back?" Ye Xiao asked.

Su Ran was silent for two seconds, then coldly uttered a single word:

"die."

The elevator doors opened.

The number keys are slowly ticking.

There are 14 hours and 45 minutes left until Operation Dawn.

The entire Kunlun base, like a sophisticated and massive war machine, was emitting a deep rumble.

That was the calm before the storm.

……

Time: The red rain arrives, the eighth day, 11:50.

Kunlun No. 1 Base, main gate control room.

"Countdown, sixty seconds."

Synthesized electronic sounds echoed in the empty command hall.

Behind the three-meter-thick explosion-proof glass, dozens of high-ranking military officers with general stars on their shoulders stood with their hands behind their backs.

Behind them were fifteen fully armed but trembling "special forces geniuses".

Zhao Tian huddled in a corner, his exoskeleton helmet and visor fogged up with cold sweat.

Mo Yun gripped the electromagnetic rifle tightly, his fingers turning white from the excessive force.

"Don't shake."

A cold voice sounded in their earpieces.

Su Ran didn't turn around, but calmly looked at the huge countdown screen in front of her.

Beside him, Ye Xiao, carrying two swords on his back, looked like a hungry wolf eyeing flesh and blood, his eyes filled with excitement rather than fear.

Bai Lu sat on an ammunition box, holding the exaggerated M200 "Silver Reaper" in her arms, and was stuffing the last piece of chocolate into her mouth.

"Comrade Xiao Su, you don't need to go out, right?"

Li Guodong walked over and asked in a low voice, a hint of worry in his eyes.

Su Ran said, "Don't worry, I'm not going to be at the front, and besides, my survival experience is probably the strongest among us."

"Thirty seconds!"

General Zhang Xiao's voice rang out on the radio, carrying a kind of explosive fury.

"Ten, nine, eight..."

"Fortress artillery, lock coordinates! Long-range rocket artillery battalion, prepare."

"Open the door!"

Rumble!

The massive alloy gate, weighing 500 tons and two meters thick, was slowly driven by a hydraulic system to slide open to both sides.

In an instant, a mixture of rotten stench, damp earthy smell, and an indescribable metallic odor rushed in through the open crack.

Suddenly, a deafening roar erupted from the previously quiet crevice.

It was the inhuman scream of tens of thousands of voices rubbing together, enough to shatter the eardrums of the timid.

"roar!!!"

A dense mass of dark blue arms reached in through the crack in the door, scratching frantically.

But this is just like a moth drawn to a flame.

"put!"

Zhang Xiao's roar ignited seven days of pent-up anger through the communication channel.

boom!boom!boom!boom!

Dozens of automatic artillery pieces, concealed under camouflage netting, fired simultaneously from the rock walls on both sides of the Kunlun Valley.

The firelight instantly illuminated the dim space as bright as day.

Immediately afterwards, a sharp whistling sound, like tearing silk, came from afar.

That was a cluster of PHL-191 rocket launchers, raining death down on this five-kilometer death zone at a rate of several rounds per second.

Even with reinforcement and vibration reduction measures, Su Ran's control room still trembled noticeably.

Outside the window, it had become a sea of ​​fire.

Each shell that lands can wipe out all living things within a radius of 100 meters.

Severed limbs flew hundreds of meters into the air, and the charred flesh instantly carbonized under the high temperature.

This pure display of force left the group of "geniuses" dumbfounded.

"Is this all the military strength that Great Xia has preserved?"

Zhao Tian muttered to himself, a glint of fanaticism flashing in his eyes, "With this kind of firepower, what zombie could possibly survive?"

"This is modern warfare."

General Zhang Xiao watched the surveillance video, a confident sneer appearing on his lips.

"Comrade Su Ran, it seems your worries are unnecessary. Under saturation firepower, all beings are equal. As long as it is a carbon-based life form, it cannot withstand the high temperature and shock wave."

Su Ran didn't say anything.

Ten minutes later.

The gunfire suddenly stopped.

The once flat Gobi Desert has now been transformed into a scorched lunar surface, with only wisps of smoke rising and the acrid smell of burnt flesh.

A deathly silence.

"Ten minutes are up."

Zhang Xiao calmly began, "Extend the artillery, advance the armored forces."

"All units, attack!"
