At this mont, inside the cockpit, the helicopter's alarm blared incessantly, the instrunt panel in disarray. The pilot was utterly confused, the control stick was unresponsive, and he was on the verge of a heart attack.
Oddly enough, even though the rotor blades had stopped mid-air from a height of ten ters, and the engine had ceased working, the aircraft mysteriously didn't crash. There was no damage whatsoever, making the situation appear incredibly eerie.
"What's going on... Why is the alarm sounding?" The aircraft jolted, causing the soldiers and Ye Feng in the rear cabin to stagger.
"Colonel, I don't understand. The engine inexplicably stopped. By all rights, the plane should have crashed instantly, but now, there's nothing. It's just too strange," the pilot said with a troubled expression, completely baffled by the situation.
"Let's disembark. The other party is probably waiting for us..." Although surprised, Ye Feng, having weathered many storms, had a rough idea that this was a supernatural force at play. He opened the cabin door and stepped out of the helicopter.
Ye Feng scanned the surroundings and spotted Derick, whose conspicuous presence couldn't be ignored. Nonchalantly, Derick sat on a makeshift sofa in the open space, surrounded by a circle of attractive won, including the charming Judy.
Observing the two maids in maid costus kneeling on the ground, the girl feeding Derick, and the small loli Moonlight beside him, Ye Feng imdiately labeled Derick as a villain.
Behind him, over a dozen fully ard soldiers disembarked from the helicopter, following in Ye Feng's footsteps.
Ye Feng's gaze beca wary; these soldiers didn't instill a sense of security in him. On the contrary, they made Derick seem mysterious and formidable, having asserted dominance right from the start.
Adjusting his attire, Ye Feng took a few steps forward, reaching a distance of less than three ters from Derick. This was an appropriate distance, not too far to hinder conversation and not too close to be intimidating. "Hello, I'm Colonel Ye Feng from the Directly Governed Grey Bear City Military District. May I inquire about your na?"
"Derick..." he said calmly, with an interested look at the Colonel.
Ye Feng received a report from one of the soldiers behind him and, under Derick's gaze, read aloud, "Mr. Derick, hello. According to discussions among the generals of the Grey Bear Military District, if you are willing to join the military district, contribute your strength to kill zombies, and save humanity, the Grey Bear Military District can authorize you with the rank of Major, along with a series of corresponding privileges, and grant you the Hero dal for killing zombies."
Derick's gaze carried a hint of amusent. Starting off with a major rank—it seed they were quite generous with titles.
Waving his hand dismissively, Derick wasn't bothered by these formalities. "Alright, you don't have to deceive with these. Even if I don't know much about the military, I should be clear that the rank of a Major General is not sothing your Grey Bear Military District can bestow. I'm afraid even the Demon Capital Military District doesn't have that authority."
"I see you're a smart person. Are you not pretending to be ignorant here? National communication is practically cut off, military districts everywhere are acting independently, claiming to save humanity. Who do you represent? Probably just those in power within the Grey Bear Military District, right?"
"If you truly understand righteousness, in this prolonged apocalypse, why haven't we seen your military co to rescue the survivors? Even if deploying soldiers on a large scale is not possible, shouldn't there be helicopters sent for slow rescue operations? The result is countless survivors dead and injured until now. Yet here you are talking about saving humanity?" Derick sneered.
Distantly speaking, even these won in the hospital, if it weren't for Derick's protection, they would likely have ended up dead in the mouths of zombies. Otherwise, they would be hiding in so corner, barely surviving, waiting for the food to run out before starving to death.
That's why Derick always detests those who preach about morality, constantly talking about saving humanity and rescuing survivors. They clearly have the ability to rescue more survivors, but for their own interests, they turn a blind eye to nurous survivors dying tragically in the mouths of zombies.
Ye Feng's dorsal veins bulged as he was not oblivious to these issues. Now, being exposed so blatantly by Derick, he felt sowhat uncomfortable. "I apologize. The decisions of the military district are not sothing I, as a re Colonel, can determine. However, I can assure you that within the next two days, helicopters will enter the city to rescue survivors."
"Hehe... rescuing survivors, or specifically searching for ?" Derick rcilessly exposed Ye Feng's lie.
After a long silence, Ye Feng finally nodded.
"I won't say much else. Since you seem to be sensible, leave quickly. Otherwise, I might take action if you stay here," Derick stated. He didn't harbor any animosity towards a straightforward military person like Ye Feng, so there was no intention to harm him. Of course, Derick expected him to leave willingly.
"If Mr. Derick is unwilling to accept the military district's appointnt, I have another request. I've set my eyes on the female warriors here," Ye Feng quickly explained as Derick's gaze turned unfriendly and even carried a hint of murderous intent. "Please don't misunderstand, I'm not talking about romantic relationships. I believe these female warriors have excellent combat qualities. With a little training, they could beco an outstanding group of soldiers..."
Rumbling footsteps echoed in the surroundings.
"No need to bother, with the master here, we don't need to go anywhere. We just hope your military district's dirty hands won't reach over here," Ye Feng spoke as a group of female warriors sprinted towards them from a distance, led by none other than Judy, who had disappeared monts ago.
The adorable face of the loli girl now carried a deanor of indifference and aloofness. The female warriors behind her had just finished killing zombies; many still had bloodstains on them, and their hands gripped cold long knives, exuding a fierce aura.
Even for soone as resolute as Ye Feng, who had personally killed nurous zombies, he couldn't help but marvel at their prowess and feel a lingering fear. The soldiers behind him took several uneasy steps back, so even raising their firearms before being promptly stopped by Ye Feng.
Several kiloters away, Judy and her team noticed an ard helicopter advancing towards the hospital. They swiftly led their group back and heard Ye Feng's words from a distance. Judy's expression turned grim as she retorted sharply.
Between Ye Feng's group and the hundreds of female warriors ahead and behind, there was an intense atmosphere of animosity, vigilance, and cold indifference. It seed as if, with just a command from their master, they would pounce and kill them imdiately.
Even Ye Feng, who had experienced large-scale scenarios, couldn't help but shudder. Faced with so many powerful female warriors, their ager firepower was utterly ineffective. Just looking at the sharp blades in the hands of these won was enough to understand that they were not just for show. The overwhelming aura and unyielding will in the air were sufficient to make anyone retreat.
"Ye Feng, right..."
"Yes," he replied with a bitter smile.
"Here, they are all under my command. I won't give up any of them voluntarily. So, don't even think about it. Go back and tell those people in the military district that I currently have no intention of actively provoking them. However, if they seek trouble themselves, then they can't bla for taking decisive action."
"Don't question my determination and capability... understood, Colonel Ye Feng?"
Facing Derick's intimidating deanor and blunt threatening words, Ye Feng showed no signs of yielding. "I will convey your ssage, but the opinions of the higher-ups in the military district are beyond my control..."
"No problem. As long as you deliver the ssage..." Derick understood the character of those military officials, but he didn't care. Even if the military district didn't co, sooner or later, he would go to them. If they wanted trouble, they would have only themselves to bla.
Ye Feng nodded and turned to leave. However, at this mont, Angelica whispered sothing to Derick.
"Wait, Colonel Ye, would you mind doing a small favor..."
"Of course, as long as it doesn't violate military discipline." Ye Feng agreed without hesitation.
"Good... Lisa, go gather those maids for ," Derick instructed Lisa.
