Apocalypse King System -
Chapter 140 140: Military Arrival
Derick rotated in all four directions, opening four gates in the city wall to facilitate the movement of personnel. He planned to assign some female warriors to patrol the wall, and due to the unique energy within the wall, only those with a similar aura to Derick's could open the gates.
In the future, Derick intended to transmit earth-based abilities to a group of female warriors, specifically assigning them the responsibility of opening the gates and conducting daily patrols.
After adjusting all the walls around the base, Derick finally relaxed. Before he could return to the hospital, he noticed a camouflage-colored helicopter flying over a building several tens of kilometers away.
"That should be a military armed helicopter," Angelica remarked as she gazed into the distance.
"Yes, it's still carrying weapons. I've seen it a few times during training," Mu Ling nodded. However, the non-supernatural female warriors, unable to see the helicopter in the city center from such a distance, just looked at the main mothers in confusion, murmuring to themselves.
"Hehe... Let's hope they are sensible and don't come to bother us," Lisa said assertively. She was not keen on any disturbance to their leader's base, and if these people intended to target them, they should be prepared for death.
"Wait a minute... where's Judy? All of us are here, but I haven't seen her," Mu Ling expressed her confusion. The four sisters had all spoken, but Judy seemed to be missing.
"I guess she sensed trouble and was afraid of getting in trouble, so she just slipped away. She's probably hiding somewhere by now," Lisa chuckled.
While the women in the hospital were deep in thought, in the city center, an armed helicopter flew over the buildings. Ye Feng looked down with amazement at the charred black clothes below, between the buildings were densely covered with lightning-struck marks, spreading for several kilometers, resembling a natural disaster.
"Is this the strength of the other side?" Ye Feng frowned. He was a colonel sent by the military for negotiations with the supernatural entity. Although Ye Feng was confident in the military's strength, facing such terrifying superhuman abilities made him hesitate. Could they really pose a threat to such beings?
The thunderous lightning, covering an attack range of several kilometers in radius, had kept the city center zombie-free for days. The streets were densely packed with the corpses of zombies, with at least hundreds of thousands of them obliterated.
Although Ye Feng, like Liu Wanting, was skeptical about negotiating with the supernatural beings, the higher-ups were already irrational. They were even considering establishing their own rule, to some extent becoming warlords. However, military personnel were duty-bound to obey orders, and Ye Feng couldn't defy them.
The helicopter circled the city center, but no clues were found. Helpless, Ye Feng had the helicopter rotate around the city, hoping to find something. Soon, they discovered a clue – a wall stretching dozens of kilometers to the west was faintly visible among the skyscrapers.
"It should be there. Head west, and fly at low altitude," Ye Feng commanded the pilot. They couldn't perform high-altitude flights because going beyond a certain height made them vulnerable to attacks from mutated zombie birds. Several military aircraft had already crashed due to such attacks, so they could only deploy low-flying helicopters with minimal noise.
Advancing in the direction of the hospital, Ye Feng and his team quickly discovered a clue. A soldier saluted and reported, "Colonel, we've found something..."
Ye Feng was taken aback and took the binoculars handed to him by the soldier. Observing the ground, he noticed rows of corpses. Unlike the zombies in the city center, whose brains were shattered by lightning, these corpses had died in various ways—beheaded, cleaved in half. However, it was evident that these killings were done with cold weapons, without traces of firearms.
This discovery shocked Ye Feng. Killing zombies with cold weapons was entirely different from using firearms. Firearms allowed for long-distance shooting, while cold weapons required close-quarters combat, posing a risk of being scratched and infected by zombies.
Yet, as far as the eye could see, there were not just a few thousand zombies on the ground. Could a group of people have killed them all? That would require an immensely powerful group.
Moreover, it was apparent that this group was systematically advancing towards their destination—the Grey Bear City Hospital.
"Strong in strength and bold in action. With just a few hundred people, trained even slightly, they could dominate in the midst of a zombie horde..." Ye Feng could easily imagine the strength of this group. They seemed like natural-born warriors.
"Could it be related to that supernatural being?" Ye Feng could only think along those lines, as every clue seemed to point to the mysterious entity.
"Colonel, we've arrived," the soldier's words interrupted Ye Feng's contemplation.
Still trying to process the recent events, Ye Feng was confronted with something even more frightening. A gray wall, stretching for over ten kilometers and reaching dozens of meters in height, surrounded the city in a circular shape, weaving through the skyscrapers.
Initially, when they saw it in the city center, they thought it was just a part of Grey Bear City's old city wall. But now, it was evident that it was newly constructed, with extraordinary craftsmanship. It seemed to have risen overnight, creating a sturdy fortress within the city, intricately designed and exuding a profound sense of solidity.
Such an enormous project, even in pre-apocalyptic times, would require extensive manpower and resources, possibly taking several years to complete. However, now, less than a month into the apocalypse, was it possible for humans to accomplish this?
Out of caution, Ye Feng didn't instruct the pilot to land on the wall. Instead, they followed the direction of the wall, flying towards its interior.
In the hospital, Derick placed a sofa in an open space, sitting down. On either side, two maids knelt, one massaging his thighs with a mallet, and the other offering him grapes with delicate hands. Standing behind the sofa was Mu Ling, using her ample bosom as a pillow for Derick.
On an open space not far away, a group of female warriors and maids stood in place, awaiting their master's command.
The roar of the helicopter soon echoed from the distance. Perhaps noticing the people on the ground, the helicopter's pilot halted, then slowly began to descend.
A hurricane of dust stirred up by the helicopter's rotor blades swept through the air. Derick furrowed his brow, extending one hand. With a gentle grasp, the helicopter's rotor blades abruptly halted, as if held in place by an unseen force. The engine followed suit, coming to a stop, and the entire helicopter, like a toy, slowly descended to the ground under Derick's control.
"Wow... Dad, that's amazing! I want to learn this move too!" Moonlight exclaimed, her eyes filled with admiration almost overflowing.
"Haha, I'll teach you next time," Derick said, pinching the delicate and flawless face of the beautiful girl.
Blushing, the lovely Moonlight didn't reject her father's affectionate gesture; she was simply a bit shy. She was quite clever, and with the influence of Moon Goddess's brainwashing, her current thoughts revolved around how to win Derick's favor, allowing her mother and herself to have more influence in the base.
