Chapter 730: Chapter 291: Iron Torrent (Two-in-One ga Chapter)_5

“`

Xiang Hong Bin muttered to himself.

Duan Xuchang looked at the middle-aged man dressed in military uniform, whose body was extensively disabled, and he felt a certain solemn respect for him.

“Comrade, all of this was developed after the apocalypse. There was none of this before the apocalypse—no, I can’t say there was none, but rather there were related designs before the apocalypse, but there were many difficulties that couldn’t be solved. So not to ntion mass production, even custom-made ones couldn’t be manufactured.”

“I see. Then what’s the power source for this powered armor? Gasoline? But I didn’t sll any oil… Could it be electricity? But are there batteries with such a large capacity nowadays? Could it possibly be the legendary nuclear power battery? How’s its endurance? Is it powerful in actual combat? Is it expensive? Once we get to the city base, can we also get a set?”

Lu Gang imdiately asked a barrage of questions.

Wei Zhenguo and the others were still calm, with age on their side, they were relatively more composed. But young people like Lu Gang had almost zero resistance to such war machines.

“The energy source… is sothing you’ve all seen!”

Duan Xuchang deliberately teased them.

“Crystal Core?”

The always silent Wang Tao suddenly spoke up.

Duan Xuchang looked at Wang Tao with a bit of surprise.

“That’s right, it’s the Crystal Core! Hope Research Institute has developed other applications for Crystal Cores, which include providing energy for powered armor.”

Wang Tao nodded silently.

The Hope Research Institute had already researched many things before, like the Crystal Core Synthesizer, Energy Detector, and the like. Now they were focusing on researching the Crystal Core, so it was reasonable if they really could develop other uses for it.

“Impressive!”

Xiang Hong Bin gave a thumbs up.

“They really are impressive!”

Duan Xuchang nodded, then turned to Xiang Hong Bin and the others.

“But you are impressive too! To be honest, when we saw the scale of the zombie horde, we were already prepared to return without achieving anything. But unexpectedly, over twenty thousand of you survivors actually held out!”

Duan Xuchang’s words were not re politeness, they were sincere admiration.

Only those who had experienced the terror of the horde could understand how difficult it was for Zijin Base to survive.

Wei Zhenguo and the others turned to look at Wang Tao upon hearing this.

“If it wasn’t for Wang Tao, our base would have fallen long ago!”

Wang Tao imdiately shook his head with a smile.

“These are all the results of our collective efforts; we couldn’t have done it without anyone.”

Duan Xuchang looked at Wang Tao with curiosity.

“Is Comrade Wang Tao an Awakener and a fourth-order ability user?”

“Yes.”

Wang Tao did not conceal it and nodded directly.

“Impressive!”

Duan Xuchang’s expression showed both admiration and respect. Anyone who could beco a fourth-order ability user was a rare talent! Especially for soone like Wang Tao to beco a fourth-order ability user in such an environnt, his efforts must have been much greater than others!

However, Wang Tao keenly sensed that, after confirming he was a fourth-order ability user, Duan Xuchang did not show any shock.

That probably ant one thing—he had seen other fourth-order ability users!

Wang Tao was not surprised.

The saying goes, a glimpse into a leopard from a tube—after seeing the strength of this military force, he knew Changhe City Base must be very powerful!

Without a doubt, they could kill four-level zombies. So it was normal for a fourth-order ability user to erge.

Not to ntion that Duan Xuchang himself was also a top third-order ability user.

[HP: 100000/100000]

[Mana: 18500/28000]

[Grade: Level 3]

[Internal Impurity: 30%]

What Wang Tao was more curious about now was just how powerful this powered armor was. Whether ability users combined with powered armor could achieve an effect of 1 1>2… However, considering it was soone else’s privacy, Wang Tao did not inquire further.

…

Lan Yu Lian was quite efficient, or rather, the survivors at the base were well-prepared. As soon as she explained the situation, the survivors imdiately began to line up in an orderly fashion for departure. Pregnant won and children were at the front, those physically weaker in the middle, with those who were stronger trailing behind.

Duan Xuchang and his n had ten trucks, but clearly, these trucks couldn’t carry over twenty thousand people. Apart from won, children, and supplies that were placed on the vehicles, the other survivors walked on foot.

Those who were still alive by now couldn’t be physically weak; protected by the troops, following the convoy, would not be a problem at all.

Looking at the excited faces of these twenty thousand people, Duan Xuchang including the other soldiers were also feeling a bit excited.

The survivors were excited because reinforcents had co to rescue them, and they had a new ho.

The excitent of Duan Xuchang and the rest ca from the fact that they had completed half their mission—saving a life was a very fulfilling thing, let alone saving over twenty thousand lives!

The Zijin Base survivors were of high quality, following the queue orderly and undergoing the military’s inspection.

It was a thousand-mile journey back and forth; the military could not afford any accidents. If there were any infected individuals, it would be very troubleso. So a quick check was necessary. Of course, even if there were infected individuals, they wouldn’t abandon them; at most, they would inject them with inhibitors.

Soon, the survivors’ check was complete, and they were ready to set off.

“Attention everyone, advance slowly!”

Duan Xuchang closed his face shield and issued the order to retreat to the convoy.

Rumble rumble—

Main battle tanks led the way at the front, wheeled infantry fighting vehicles and soldiers ford the outermost protection, two Wu Zhi helicopters had already left to scout ahead, and another two followed above the convoy.

As for the powered armors, they acted as ergency fire fighters, moving to wherever danger erged.

Everyone took one last look at Zijin Base. Lan Yu Lian and a few others were sowhat reluctant to leave, as it had been their ho for quite a long ti. But there was no choice, these more than twenty thousand people could not withstand the horde of zombies. They could only go to a safer place.
