Chapter 147: Chapter 142: Fury (Extra Chapter for 3000 votes!!)
"OK, I accept your resignation," Taylor said sharply, sneering, "Now that you’re no longer an employee of the Federation Governnt, I can classify you all as terrorists who plunder federal assets. Perhaps this is the outco you desired?"
"Terrorists? I don’t see it that way," Lin Xian remained unfazed despite the dozens of gun barrels pointed at him. He raised his hands decisively and declared loudly, "Did you really think that you are the only ones with guns?!"
Click-click-click.
Suddenly, the nacing sound filled the air, and the barrel of a Remington M96 appeared abruptly, pressing against Taylor’s forehead.
Shu Qin!
At the sa ti, Building, Xu Jin, Lao Mo, and over a hundred ard mbers from three motorcades all raised their weapons. They all stood behind Lin Xian, aiming at Taylor and the Guard Corps behind her. Even Sha Sha pulled out her Grenade Gun, her small fra standing beside Lin Xian, her gaze defiantly fixed on the blonde woman before her.
"Ha ha, this woman still thinks she represents the official governnt, robbing right over the heads of the survivors?" At this mont, Shi Deyuan from Dragon Mountain No.1 saw through the situation, sneered, and snapped his fingers. His followers also drew their weapons and aid at Taylor and her group. "Great, I’ve also had enough of you lapdogs. Let’s see if you have the guts to fire your guns!"
A battle was imminent!
"Have you all lost your minds, daring to provoke the Federation Governnt?!" Taylor’s face changed drastically, screaming, "Zhan Wei, I order you to shoot these rioters on the spot!"
Zhan Wei, the commander of the Guard Corps with a crew cut in his thirties, found himself wavering as tensions rose.
"Commander?" One of Zhan Wei’s n looked toward him with a concerned expression, indicating with his eyes, "What do we do?"
"Stay calm, don’t fire at the civilians!" Zhan Wei whispered harshly.
A clash with the Survivor Alliance here would surely lead to outright chaos, and with the city besieged by a zombie horde, no one wanted an internal bloodshed to erupt now.
"The Federation Governnt, to hell with that!"
Xu Jin, aiming his gun, viciously spat on the ground, "You abandoned the people at the first sign of disaster, and now you dare call yourselves the governnt?"
Xu Jin’s words were like a blaze that instantly ignited the anger of many present. Although the natural disaster was not caused by the Federation Governnt, as leaders, they had not only abandoned the laboring masses, but even now, at this mont of life and death, their priority was not defending the Airport but rather the protection of those ’first-class citizens’. Seeing this unfold, the surrounding survivors approached with visible anger, and their numbers grew.
"That’s right, the rescue efforts are now being coordinated by the Phoenix Society. You lot are nothing."
"Where were you during the Extre Night???"
"Cowards!"
"Damned Federation Governnt!"
"Go back underground and eat shit!"
With furious indignation swelling, more and more people gathered, ready to erupt at any mont.
Dozens of Guard Corps personnel looked around at the encroaching crowd with rapidly changing expressions, aimlessly shifting their guns, unable to block those pressing forward.
Lin Xian watched this scene with a scoff in his heart. It seed not only was he disgusted by this worthless Federation Governnt; everyone held rage in their hearts. Among the survivors at the Airport, who hadn’t experienced family destruction, life and death parting? Such anger directed at the Federation Governnt was sothing Taylor, a re senior executive, could not bear.
Seeing the scene, Taylor’s face turned pale with fury, her chest heaving in rage as she roared, "You! You all!!! Are you intending to start a rebellion?!"
"Rebellion, that’s not for you to say, Taylor."
At that mont, a resolute, loud voice suddenly rang out.
Clang, clang, clang!
From outside the crowd, a large group of the Iron Guard Brigade soldiers swiftly approached, these heavily ard soldiers clad in powered exoskeleton armor, their presence clearly unmatched by the ard survivors.
As the Iron Guard Brigade arrived, many survivors automatically cleared a path. Lin Xian’s gaze followed, leading to a middle-aged woman in uniform with a crimson Phoenix emblem on it.
Phoenix Society!
What surprised Lin Xian was that among these people was a familiar face he recognized, Jiang Yun.
Seeing the newcors, Taylor’s expression changed, and she defiantly questioned, "Mr. Bai, I am under orders to investigate the regional affair, are you going to interfere with us too?"
The woman called Mr. Bai glanced sharply at Taylor, ignoring her entirely, "There are no regional affairs for you here. The Airport is now under the managent of the Phoenix Society and Iron Guard 52nd Brigade. Please, do not disrupt the order at the Airport."
"What a joke! Yu Bei Airport is also a property of the Federation. You can’t just take over whenever you say!"
Taylor glanced at the Iron Guard Brigade soldiers behind her and hissed vehently, "So what, the 52nd Brigade of the Iron Guard has been losing from Feng City, Chong’an, and Xinglong all the way to Yu Bei. You have no other skill but dare to point guns at the Federation Governnt?"
Her words incited a surge of anger in every soldier of the Iron Guard Brigade.
"If you can’t understand what I’m saying, I don’t mind having you expelled from the airport right here and now." Bai Shuang spoke with a sharp tone, clearly stating an ultimatum.
Hiss hiss hiss hiss!
As soon as her voice fell, the heavily armored soldiers of the Iron Guard Brigade behind her suddenly shook, flaunting their weapons, an obvious show of intimidation.
Although Bai Shuang’s words were not light or heavy, they carried an overwhelming sense of oppression, causing Taylor’s expression to change slightly.
At this mont, Taylor only had fewer than a hundred people from the Guard Corps, while Bai Shuang was backed by the 52nd Iron Guard Brigade. After the dissolution of the Federation Governnt, both the interstellar army and the Iron Guard Brigade had sided with the Phoenix Society. Their Dawn Plan had no leverage to confront the Phoenix Society.
Taylor was so angry that his face went from red to pale. Seeing the gun barrels pointed at him, he didn’t dare to openly clash with the Phoenix Society and the survivors. He stiffly kept his composure and then glanced over Lin Xian and Bai Shuang with a threatening tone,
"Don’t think this is over. I’ll report this incident, and the Federation’s assets will be reclaid!"
"I await your esteed visit," Lin Xian replied disdainfully.
He didn’t care about offending this damn Federation Governnt. How could the spoils of war that his team had fought so hard for be given up so easily?
The more they acted like this, the more important this Blood Calamity Disaster Plant must be!
Having said this, Taylor turned and walked away, with his people retreating in a dejected manner. Zhao Yan and Xu Wen also looked at Lin Xian and Ding Junyi with complicated expressions, then quickly followed behind.
"Get lost!"
"Damn governnt!!"
"Worthless as a horseless carriage."
Watching Taylor and the others leave, the surrounding survivors burst into satisfied curses.
At this ti, the woman nad Bai Shuang approached Lin Xian, with Jiang Yun stepping forward to introduce first,
"Mr. Bai, this is Lin Xian, captain of the Infinity convoy."
"Lin Xian, this is Bai Shuang, the ergency response team leader of the Phoenix Society, who just arranged for you to quickly pass through the platform."
"So, that’s how it is," Lin Xian nodded, looking gratefully at Bai Shuang, "Thank you very much."
"No need for formalities. It was also because Jiang Yun introduced the identity of your convoy to , so there was no need for a temporary inspection."
Hearing this, Lin Xian thought to himself that it was Jiang Yun who had helped with the ergency passage. He wondered how this guy suddenly got in touch with the ergency team leader.
After Bai Shuang finished speaking, she looked around and raised her voice, "Good, all you big convoy people are here. The airport is currently in an ergency situation. Since our ergency team is short on manpower, and the 52nd Iron Guard Brigade has suffered significant casualties earlier, we need everyone’s support to ensure a safe evacuation."
"Ergency situation, what do you an?" Shi Deyuan asked directly.
Bai Shuang extended her hand to point at the huge climbing elevator behind her,
"The climbing elevator is malfunctioning."
When this statent was made, the faces of many convoy captains changed instantly, and the atmosphere suddenly grew tense.
"Ah? The elevator is broken?"
"No wonder the boarding process stopped..."
"What are we going to do then? Can it be fixed, or are we just going to be trapped here?"
...
"Everyone, don’t worry. It’s not a major fault. According to our engineers’ assessnt, it is expected to take about 3-5 hours to complete the repair," Bai Shuang explained quickly, seeing the mood was off.
Hearing this reassurance that repairs were possible, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Those who made it here virtually had no way out. Yu Bei City was completely surrounded by zombies. Currently, during the dark night, the place is filled with lethal creatures. If the climbing elevator is truly done for, then they are basically left with nowhere to turn.
"So the support you’re talking about is hoping that we can send people to help hold the defense line?" Shi Deyuan asked straightforwardly, "No need for you to say, I was planning on taking people up there to help anyway."
Bai Shuang nodded at his words, her face sowhat serious as she said,
"Correct. The attacks tonight are much more severe than the past two days. We suspect it might be related to the Extre Night Corpse Chaser."
