1442: Chapter 31 Fortress 1442: Chapter 31 Fortress Tang Zheng and Mu Nianqi exchanged glances, knowing that Lu Fan’s guesses were probably very close to the truth, unlike Fu Tianxiao who still held naive beliefs.
All signs indicated that Silver Trojan’s control over this world had been minimized, to the extent that it couldn’t even manage simple communication.
Considering the attack just launched by the Bloodthirsty Demon that had suddenly appeared, it was clear that sothing was targeting the survivors.
Jiang Xiuming, seeing the serious expressions on Tang Zheng and Queen Mu’s faces as they pondered, let out a sigh of relief.
“Not bad, a quick response!” Jiang Xiuming adjusted his glasses and gazed at the blood on the ground, morizing the wristwatch information.
If Tang Zheng couldn’t handle it within three hours, he was prepared to blow his cover and take control of the whole team.
As a Group Leader who was a Hero Third Grade and had once commanded fifteen fearless mbers, he was confident he could do it.
Jiang Xiuming was no newbie.
His team had once ranked 48th in Trojan World, a considerable force.
“A loss of control, again?” This familiar scene brought back cruel mories buried in Jiang Xiuming’s heart.
He revealed a bitter smile and abandoned the thought of informing Tang Zheng and the others about the intelligence.
This was also a form of training.
If they couldn’t survive this, they might as well die early to avoid the suffering.
The luxury of the Trojan World was not to be enjoyed easily.
The recent ambush had killed nearly thirty newbies.
Seeing the companions they had just t turned into piles of flesh was too much of a shock.
Two female newbies couldn’t take it and broke down, babbling hysterically.
“Xin Lan, Fei Fei, go comfort the newbies and give them sothing to drink to calm their nerves.”
The kind-hearted housewife and the well-known female anchor were better received by the newbies, making it easier for them to accept their comfort.
Tang Zheng looked at the newbies who were still scared and helplessly shook his head, suspecting a wholesale slaughter was the inevitable end.
“You worry too much, it’s going to wear you out,” Fu Tianxiao said softly, caring for Tang Zheng, hoping to gain his favor.
“Sister Zixuan, would you heat up so water?” After finishing the canned food, Lu Fan filled the can with water and passed it to Dong Zixuan.
The policewoman, fond of the clever little loli, did not refuse.
Holding the can, she slightly released her ability, raising the temperature of her palm, and in less than ten seconds, the water boiled and stead.
“So convenient.
Here, pour it into this.” Lu Fan poured instant coffee into the can and waited for the policewoman to pour in the hot water; she then stirred it imdiately with her folding knife.
The faint aroma of coffee wafted through the air.
“Uncle, for you!” Lu Fan blew on the can’s edge to cool the hot steam and handed it to Tang Zheng.
“Careful, it’s hot!” The command vehicle was not stable on the move, and a few drops of coffee splashed out.
Tang Zheng hurriedly took it.
Although not thirsty, he didn’t want to disappoint the little loli; otherwise, with her personality, she would certainly coax him into drinking it.
Gu Xueqi’s assault car overtook them, following close behind.
Tang Zheng saw the beauty queen and pulled out the Green-skinned Token he had gotten earlier.
“Xueqi, this is for you!”
Tang Zheng swung his arm, and the token arced through the air, landing precisely in front of Gu Xueqi, judged perfectly.
“S-grade, and a rare item too?” Fu Tianxiao noticed with sharp eyes and, with her level of thriftiness, imdiately recognized the token’s value.
“Thank you!” Gu Xueqi glanced at Tao Ran but didn’t refuse and treasured the token.
“Just giving away rare items like that?” Fu Tianxiao was surprised to see them not saying anything more.
“What else would you have them do?” Xu Biyun retorted.
“Expect her to offer herself in thanks for an S-grade artifact?”
“Uh!” Fu Tianxiao was at a loss for words, looking at the unflustered expression of the Warhamr team.
She suddenly realized that Tang Zheng probably often gifted them items, so they were used to it.
Even Xiaobai and the one with the Nose Ring had to admit that Tang Zheng was a generous Group Leader.
For a mont, they too wanted to join his ranks.
Tao Ran saw the previous scene, her expression unchanged, but her heart felt a bit bitter.
She wondered if it was because Tang Zheng received no response from her that he gave up, a possibility that suddenly made her heart ache.
“Let it be, Xueqi is smart and beautiful, she is the right match for Tang Zheng.” Tao Ran felt like an ugly duckling and once again enveloped herself in silence.
Of course, Gu Xueqi was not naive enough to think Tang Zheng liked her personally.
Once she learned of the token’s effect, she knew the Group Leader gave it to her to increase her role as a at shield.
Healing was vital to ensure combat power.
That was indeed Tang Zheng’s thought.
With his limited experience concerning matters of n and won, he paid no attention to Tao Ran’s emotional turbulence.
Now, his mind was preoccupied with how to break into the Human Fortress.
“Judging by the direction of the Green-skinned Division’s march, their target should be the Fortress.
What do we do if it falls?” Dong Zixuan began to think, wanting a taste of command.
Li Huiwen didn’t want to always be a bystander and nudged Xu Liangmao to speak up.
But Liang Mao, rather helplessly facing such a predicant, ignored her prodding.
“Wouldn’t that be very troubleso?” Li Huiwen joined the fray personally, “Right, that Silver Trojan didn’t specify the exact location of the Teleportation Gate, did it?”
“That’s why this is the most difficult part.
Even if the Green-skinned Beasts occupy the Fortress, we can still charge in, but without the location of the Teleportation Gate, that ans we have to spend ti searching.
Do you think the Green-skinned Beasts will let us get our way?” Shen Qingshuang’s face was as dark as water, and she felt like pulling her hair out in frustration.
Ah?
Just thinking about searching for a Teleportation Gate whose location was unknown within a fortress occupied by tens of thousands of Green-skinned Beasts, the Conquerors also felt a tingling in their scalps.
For the outnumbered Trojan Squad, the thing they feared most was a war of attrition.
“Why don’t we just let the Group Leader open Steel Sky and carpet bomb the entire place to slaughter all the Beastn?” Xu Biyun said begrudgingly, though she knew it was impossible.
That would consu too much Life Energy, and besides, the Green-skinned Beasts wouldn’t just stand around waiting to be bombed.
“It’s not that pessimistic, let’s look at the situation first!”
Tang Zheng’s words did not reduce the pressure on the Group mbers because, by the afternoon, two more divisions had arrived.
The continuous stream of landing ships blocked out the sky, and war chariots kicked up endless dust on the Highway one after the other.
Thanks to the scouts, everyone had hidden away early.
Plus, with Fu Tianxiao’s Psychic-type Ability, they weren’t discovered by the Green-skinned Beasts.
But the enemy’s reinforcents also ant that the situation was becoming even more critical.
At dusk, everyone finally saw the Human Fortress towering on the horizon.
Of course, the Green-skinned Beasts’ temporary Military Camp was closer, with an army of over sixty thousand, spreading out like ugly masses of moss across the ground.
Without making any rash decisions, Tang Zheng, accompanied by Xin Lan and Dong Zixuan, went to scout personally while also dispatching four recon squads to gather as much detailed intelligence as possible.
As the Sun was about to set, everyone returned according to plan and held a temporary eting.
“The Green-skinned Beasts are rushing to set up their Artillery Position.
It seems they don’t plan on letting the garrison inside the Fortress have a good night’s sleep tonight.”
No sooner had Wei Binbai finished speaking than the thunderous roar of heavy cannons began.
The Beastn started test firing, adjusting the angles.
“It’s fine as long as it’s not occupied.
We can rush into the Fortress taking advantage of the night.” Sha Ou clenched his fist and hamred it onto his palm.
In the process, due to the dimness of the night and the breakout, so Newbies would definitely fall behind, but that couldn’t be helped.
“No, I’ve calculated it.
About three kiloters away at full speed, given the current road condition, it would take about six minutes.
If you add in Green-skinned Beast interference, it will definitely take more than fifteen minutes.” Dong Zixuan shook her head; the plan was not reliable.
“What if the car breaks down?” A girl with long eyelashes overheard from not too far away and hurriedly asked.
“Shut up, if it breaks, consider it bad luck,” Sha Ou cursed without any good temper, “Roll away.”
Concerning life and death, so Newbies couldn’t afford to care about their pride anymore.
None of them left; instead, they gathered around, wanting to hear the plan.
“Our vehicles belonged to the Beastn, so we should be able to blend in, right?” Xu Biyun wanted to try disguising.
“Would the Beastn be that stupid?
Besides, how do you plan to enter the Fortress?
You might get attacked by the garrison, mistaking you for Beastn.” Shen Qingshuang, who was usually calm, was not composed this ti, appearing rather irritated.
“Group Leader Tang, you must already have an idea, right?” Fu Tianxiao took the initiative to strike up a conversation when he saw Tang Zheng not speaking.
“Steal the Beastn’s logistics Base.
I saw a Temporary Airport nearby with so flying vehicles.
Just take to the sky, and in less than a minute, we could fly over the Fortress,” Tang Zheng did not disappoint, proposing a more reliable thod.
“What about the garrison?” Shen Qingshuang reiterated the old concern.
“Qin Yan and Nianqi charge into the Fortress first to make your identities known.
If it doesn’t work out, claim to be important figures or have vital intelligence.” Tang Zheng held a folding knife, drawing a rough map of the Beastn’s defensive layout on the ground, “Once we’re in the Fortress, we’ll have more options to choose from.”
No one spoke, waiting for Tang Zheng to continue.
“Even if we’re captured, with our Abilities, we could still escape.
We just wait for the Teleportation Gate to open.”
“What if they decide to execute us on the spot?” Xiaobai queried.
“Run.
Given the current situation of the garrison, they can’t afford to carry out a city-wide manhunt.
If they do, we’ll create chaos, giving the Beastn the impression they can attack the city ahead of schedule, and spreading out the forces chasing us.
Then, we just have to survive until midnight, and we’ve made it.”
The Conquerors nodded in agreent, Tang Zheng’s considerations were the most thorough.
“Check your weapons, take a rest, and move out after the Beastn start their dinner,” Tang Zheng’s calm and composed deanor boosted everyone’s confidence.
Before the operation, there was good news; through the Radio station’s international distress channel, they received a ssage from Dantai.
They had already entered the Fortress ahead of schedule, and upon learning of Tang Zheng’s plan, they promised to cooperate as much as possible.
The communication lasted less than a minute before the signal was jamd by the suspicious Green-skinned Beasts.
However, most of the necessary information had already been conveyed.
“Anti-Air Positions, both sides of the Machine Gun Bunkers, must be taken out imdiately, and then follow the plan to find the vehicles you need to drive.
Understood?” Tang Zheng instructed from atop a small hill, giving his final orders.
“Understood!” The surviving Team’s morale was high.
