Doomsday police, please show your god/demon ID card.

The red glow of the signal flare had not yet faded in the night sky.

boom!

A muffled gunshot rang out from the top of the chemical plant's reaction tower, a kilometer away.

On the watchtower in the southeast corner of the grain depot, the operator who was trying to control the searchlight to lock onto the target had his head explode into a cloud of blood mist, and his body slumped down limply.

boom!

Almost without pause, a second shot rang out.

On the northwest watchtower, a heavy machine gunner shuddered, a bloody hole appearing between his eyebrows.

Luo Yongchao put down the sniper rifle, pulled the bolt, and the hot shell casings ejected, landing on the concrete ground with a soft thud.

"Both watchtowers cleared." He calmly reported over the walkie-talkie: "Repeat, watchtowers cleared."

Almost the instant he finished speaking.

"Received," Chen Ming's voice rang out.

He concealed himself at a more distant observation point, lightly pressing a button on the remote control terminal in front of him.

hum-

An off-road vehicle, hidden not far from the grain depot, suddenly sprang out from the shadows.

This was modified by Chen Ming before he came; it's equipped with a radio that can be remotely controlled.

The entire area was bound together with explosives supplied by Liu Qiang.

The car drove straight into the main gate of the grain depot.

"Enemy attack! Stop that car!" The guards at the gate finally reacted, roaring and raising their guns to fire.

The bullets hit the remote-controlled car, sending up a shower of sparks.

Boom!

Like an earth dragon turning over, the violent explosion sounded like muffled thunder.

The massive shockwave instantly tore a huge gap in the main gate of the grain depot, including the surrounding sandbag fortifications, and overturned seven or eight guards.

"The main gate has been breached!"

"Group 1! Group 2! Follow me!" Wang Hu's roar rang out over the walkie-talkie.

He kicked open the car door, grabbed his Type 95 rifle, and was the first to rush toward the breach that had been blown open.

Behind him, a commando team of dozens of police officers, like tigers descending a mountain, unleashed their full firepower, pouring ammunition into the chaotic main entrance area.

"The assault team has entered!"

On the other side, under the wall in the southeast corner.

Liu Qiang checked the fuse and gave a hand signal to the team members behind him.

"Ready!"

He pressed the detonator.

boom!

Another loud bang, and a large amount of directional explosives blasted a huge hole in the wall of the grain depot.

"Flanking assault team! Advance!"

Liu Qiang let out a low roar and led another group of men to pour in from the flank of the warehouse area.

……

Bang bang bang!

20mm caliber heavy machine gun bullets are like the hammer of death.

The outer wall of the warehouse where Tang Long and the others were hiding was smashed into pieces.

"Damn it! All our efforts were in vain!" Tang Long dodged a burst of gunfire, raised his hand and fired a shot, blowing the head off a guard who was trying to break in through the side door.

He couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath.

They were almost successful, but at the last moment, they were discovered.

"These lunatics! This firepower configuration is something even a regular army wouldn't have!" Zhao Fan leaned against a huge shelf, wiping the dust off his face, still shaken.

The warehouse entrances were already crowded with guards who had rushed over after hearing the news, their dark gun barrels constantly spitting fire.

Bullets struck the shelves and walls, scattering cement debris and sparks.

"Keep guarding! Once Wang Hu and the others get in, we'll be free to relax." Tang Long turned his head and shouted, then raised his hand and fired several shots towards the door.

at the same time.

The workers' shed area at the other end of the grain depot.

The intense explosions and gunfire clearly alerted many of the survivors who were being forcibly detained there.

"A fight has broken out! A fight has broken out outside!"

"Run! Run!"

"Let's fight them! We're going to die anyway!"

Some people took advantage of the chaos to storm the guards, seizing tools and even weapons, while others tried to escape in panic.

This forced the armed personnel at the grain depot to divert some of their manpower to suppress the unrest, and shouts, cries, and sporadic fighting further escalated the chaos.

The entire grain depot is now in complete chaos.

Tang Long leaned against the cover and observed the distribution of firepower and the warehouse structure outside through the gaps in the shelves.

"Zhao Fan!"

"exist!"

"You and Xiaowei stay here and protect Wu Zheng! Hold off the enemy!"

"Yes!" Zhao Fan didn't ask any more questions and immediately adjusted his firing position.

Tang Long took a deep breath and looked up at the top of the warehouse.

He took two steps back and swung his arm.

The whip of order roared out and precisely wrapped around the crossbeam, which was more than ten meters high.

The vines suddenly tightened, instantly lifting Tang Long's body off the ground. Like a spider, he leaped several times and silently climbed to the top of the warehouse.

He smashed open a ventilation window, climbed out, and came to the outer wall of the warehouse.

A cold wind swept across my face, and beneath my feet lay a chaotic battlefield, while in the distance stood a brightly lit five-story office building.

Without the slightest hesitation, the Whip of Order extended once more, one end embedding itself in the outer wall of the office building, drawing an arc through the night as it silently pressed against the wall.

Climb, break the window, climb again.

Like a black gecko, he evaded everyone's gaze and swiftly made his way to the observation room on the top floor.

boom!

Tang Long kicked the glass door of the observation room to pieces.

He stormed in, gun in hand, the beam of his tactical flashlight and the muzzle of his gun simultaneously locking onto the center of the room.

A tall, middle-aged man stood with his back to him, his hands behind his back, quietly watching the chaotic battlefield below through the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

He seemed completely unsurprised by Tang Long's intrusion, and didn't even turn around immediately.

"So you're the leader of this group? Brother Xiong?" Tang Long's voice was icy.

The man slowly turned around.

He had a square face, a buzz cut, and his eyes didn't show the panic Tang Long had expected. Instead, they held a cold, mocking look, as if he were watching a play.

He was also holding a syringe in his hand, containing a dark red liquid that looked like flowing blood under the light.

Tang Long frowned slightly, his vigilance instantly reaching its peak.

Brother Xiong looked Tang Long up and down: "My men reported earlier that some police officers wanted to talk to me. I thought it was some stupid idiot talking in his sleep."

"But why have the police learned to attack from behind now?"

"There's no need to play by the rules when dealing with people like you." Tang Long kept his gun steady as he approached step by step, his eyes sharp as an eagle, trying to catch any subtle movements of his opponent.

"Answer me, what is the purpose of your visit to Dongyun City? Where did those people you sent away go?"

"Purpose?" Brother Xiong chuckled, raising the syringe in his hand, the dark red liquid swirling in the glass tube.

"That's part of the goal."

"As for where all that garbage went, why don't you go down there and see for yourself?"

Before he finished speaking, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he plunged the needle into his own carotid artery!

Tang Long's pupils contracted sharply, and he instinctively pulled the trigger!

boom!

The bullet hit the syringe, shattering the glass tube, but some dark red liquid still splashed into Xiong Ge's neck skin due to inertia.

"Hehe...hehe..."

His eyes quickly became bloodshot, turning completely red, and he let out a beast-like roar.

The veins on his neck bulged out like earthworms, his body swelled up at a visible speed, and his bones made a grating cracking sound.

"Police? Hahaha!" Brother Xiong's voice turned hoarse and deep: "In the apocalypse, might makes right!"

boom!

He suddenly exerted force with his feet, and his whole body turned into a blur as he rushed straight towards Tang Long.

What?

Alarm bells were ringing in Tang Long's mind!

He crossed his arms to block, while simultaneously summoning vines to form a shield in front of him.

boom!

A tremendous force struck, and the vine shield dented instantly.

Tang Long was hit as if by a truck, sliding backward five or six meters before crashing heavily into the wall. He felt a sweet taste in his throat, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

"Hahaha! So this is your superpower? The ability to control plants? Or some kind of biological weapon?"

"That's too weak." Brother Xiong pressed his advantage, grabbing the heavy solid wood desk next to him and throwing it at Tang Long like a toy.

Tang Long suppressed his surging blood and qi, and awkwardly rolled to the side to avoid it.

bang~

The solid wood office desk was smashed to pieces.

Brother Xiong lunged forward, his attack like a storm.

His entire body was like a human weapon, with his fists, elbows, and knees all transformed into deadly weapons, each strike carrying terrifying power capable of splitting rocks and shattering monuments.

clang!clang!clang!

Inside the observation room, the sound of metal clashing could be heard incessantly.

The equipment in the observation room was smashed one after another during the fight between the two men, sparks flew everywhere, and the room was a complete mess.

Tang Long was terrified!

After the injection, the opponent not only gained immense strength and speed, but also achieved an unbelievable level of physical defense!

You know, he had experimented with it before.

The whip of order can destroy a car with a single lash.

When a blow lands on him, it usually only leaves a shallow white mark, which is really quite unbelievable.

He frowned slightly and fought while retreating.

Instead of engaging in direct combat, they utilize the flexibility of the Whip of Order to constantly move around and dodge.

The vines sometimes lashed out like whips, sometimes coiled like serpents, constantly attacking the man's lower body and joints, trying to slow his offensive.

"Hide? Where can you hide!" Brother Xiong kicked a desk to pieces, leaped up, and brought his fist down.

This forced Tang Long to retreat once again.

Whoosh!

Two whips of order shot out again, wrapping around the man's ankles and wrists.

"This trick again?"

The man sneered, his muscles twitching, and he actually managed to break free from the vines' hold.

Moreover, just as Brother Xiong's fist landed...

Tang Long's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his body leaned backward in an extremely awkward way, almost sliding across the ground.

At the same time, the two whips of order, which seemed to have broken apart and were hanging limply on the ground, suddenly straightened up, like a resurrected poisonous dragon, and fiercely stabbed at the joint ligaments behind the opponent's knees!

puff!

"what!"

Brother Xiong cried out in pain, his right leg buckled, and he fell to his knees.

Although the drug strengthened his muscles and bones, the soft tissue at the joints remained a relative weakness!

While you are sick, I will kill you.

Tang Long braced himself with one hand on the ground and sprang into the air, instantly closing the distance.

His right hand clenched loosely, and vines grew wildly in his palm, rapidly intertwining and solidifying in the air...

Then, it transformed into a nearly two-meter-long, jet-black spiral spear.

"Die!" Tang Long roared, thrusting his spear straight at the enemy.

puff!

The jet-black spiral spear, with its unparalleled penetrating power, pierced through Xiong Ge's chest and emerged from his back, pinning him firmly to the ground!

"Uh... Guh..." His maniacal laughter came to an abrupt halt.

He lowered his head in disbelief, staring at the dark vine, his bloodshot eyes beginning to glaze over.

"you……"

He opened his mouth, and blood foam welled up from the corner of his mouth.

"company……"

"I won't... let you get away with this..."

[Ding~ Killed leader of illegal armed group/pseudo-mutant, gained 1000 Order Points.]

[The Whip of Order, Trait 1: Healing, activated. The whip has been slightly strengthened, and your health has been slightly restored.]

"Phew~"

Take a deep, heavy breath.

Tang Long made a fist with his right hand, and the vines retracted into his palm and disappeared.

He stared at Xiong Ge's corpse, his brows furrowing slightly.

company?

What does this mean?

Are there other forces behind this group of militants?

And what exactly did they inject just now? How did they suddenly become so powerful?

Thinking about this, he felt a little scared.

If it weren't for him, the plan would have failed long ago if it had been someone else.

Tang Long shook his head, temporarily suppressing his doubts, and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window in the observation room.

Below, gunshots, explosions, and screams mingled together, and the firelight illuminated distorted faces.

He picked up the walkie-talkie, his voice hoarse from the intense fighting just now.

"Chen Ming, can you hear me?"

"Yes, Captain Tang. How's the situation on your end?"

"I'm in the observation room on the top floor of the office building. The leader has been killed."

Tang Long glanced at the smashed broadcast control console next to him.

"The public address system here is broken. Do you have any way to take over their internal channels?"

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the walkie-talkie.

"Okay! Give me one minute. What do you want to say?"

Tang Long's gaze swept over the chaotic battlefield below, his voice turning icy.

"Lay down your weapons, kneel down and surrender, and you will be spared death."

"Repeat it."

"Understood," Chen Ming replied.

One minute later.

A cold, emotionless voice echoed through the night sky from all the loudspeakers in the grain depot.

"Lay down your weapons, kneel down and surrender, and you will be spared death."

"Repeat, put down your weapons..."

Both sides, who were exchanging fire, paused for a moment.

The guards at the granary looked bewildered and terrified.

A guard captain, who was firing his gun, turned and yelled at the people around him after hearing the broadcast.

"Bullshit! The boss can't be dead! Don't listen to him!"

He hadn't finished speaking.

boom!

A bullet precisely ripped open his skull.

Wang Hu, rifle in hand, rushed in through the breach in the blasted gate, followed by a tidal wave of assault team members.

"Surrender and you will not be killed!"

Wang Hu's roar became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Ding-dong.

The first guard threw down his gun, knelt on the ground, and put his hands behind his head.

Ding-dong, ding-dong...

The sound of weapons hitting the ground rang out one after another.

Most of the guards lost their will to fight and chose to surrender.

The battle ended faster than expected.

Tang Long walked down from the office building.

Wang Hu quickly came forward, his body covered in dust and blood.

"Captain Tang! Are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Tang Long shook his head. "Have the casualty count been released? How many prisoners have been captured?"

Wang Hu handed over a piece of paper, his voice low.

"We lost two brothers, three were seriously wounded, and seven were slightly wounded."

"Many of the prisoners who were imprisoned rioted before we stormed in and died during the suppression."

"According to preliminary counts, there are about thirty dead, and many more wounded."

"On the enemy side, thirty-two were killed and seventy-four were captured; they are all kneeling over there."
