Chapter 1135: Chapter 1131: Deep Waters of the Cloud Gorge Base

Xu Haishui fell silent for a moment, indicating the population enormity spoke volumes about the strength of Cloud Gorge Base. New Humans were evolved from old humans, and every person had the chance to evolve into a New Human, thereby, the greater the population of a force, the more numerous the New Humans within it.

He narrowed his eyes and then looked at Miao Luo, saying, "Are you suggesting that my Peace Party is no match for Cloud Gorge Base?"

Unexpectedly, yet logically, Miao Luo nodded decisively, but the next moment, Xu Haishui shook his head and said, "Mayor Miao, you still don’t understand much about my Peace Party, do you?"

"What do you mean?" Miao Luo was stunned for a moment, not catching on immediately. Merely the vast difference in population was enough to show that the United District was inferior to Cloud Gorge Base, not to mention, the technological aspects of Cloud Gorge Base hadn’t even been mentioned.

What Miao Luo didn’t know was that the Peace Party never measured its strength by the number of people, the magnitude of its military force, or how powerful its technology was. All the soldiers of the Peace Party were actually a façade, established by several zombies to secure a foothold in human society.

In the eyes of Xu Haishui and Tang Ye, the true power of the Peace Party lay in its zombie army!

Outmatched in military force, inferior in overall New Human strength, and outclassed in technology? That didn’t matter, if pushed too far they would summon the zombie army. As powerful as the total evolving New Humans among mankind might be, the evolving zombies among the zombie population outnumbered them by at least four times!

Now, the rare Level 6 New Humans found in some city ruins could also find a couple of Level 6 Evolved Zombies. Don’t forget, Level 6 New Humans only emerged within the regions of superpowers, whereas Level 6 zombies existed in almost every city, with some places having zombie herds with intelligence nearly matching that of Level 7 zombies.

Miao Luo narrowed his eyes and glanced at Xu Haishui, seemingly pondering something. Soon, he looked into Xu Haishui’s eyes and said with a smile, "Vice President Xu, perhaps you and everyone else in the Peace Party don’t quite grasp the strength of the two major forces at Cloud Gorge Base."

"Let me put it this way—firstly, just the Hidden Dragon Organization alone has 500,000 active soldiers, and counting the reserve soldiers, a total of over 800,000. That’s just one organization, and, frankly speaking, the entire military force of your Peace Party amounts to only 150,000. Faced with the combined million-strong military power of the two major forces at Cloud Gorge Base, it’s clear who is stronger and who is weaker. Furthermore, Cloud Gorge Base has a populous and numerous New Humans. Within Cloud Gorge Base, only Level 2 and above New Humans are eligible to join the army, and those soldiers who haven’t evolved into New Humans have long been killed or phased out. If I’m not wrong, your Peace Party currently has about 140,000 soldiers and includes some ordinary people, right?"

"Perhaps, Vice President, your confidence stems from Cloud Gorge Base not having any Level 7 New Humans appear yet, but let me tell you, there is a group of very mysterious individuals in Cloud Gorge Base. Each of them has the same face, each with only one name, and no one knows just how many there are. They have a term used for them, known only by the upper echelons of Cloud Gorge Base—the Order Protectors."

"Have no doubt, these Order Protectors already have individuals who have evolved to Level 7, and above them, there is someone who acts like a pair of massive hands, dividing the Hidden Dragon Organization and the Court apart, making them constantly fight each other!"

As Miao Luo spoke, Xu Haishui’s eyes grew increasingly profound, the opponent constantly implying that Cloud Gorge Base was profoundly deep, with its two superpowers like two puppets, each being played with by a giant hand!

"Furthermore, there’s the exoskeleton battle suits of Cloud Gorge Base. B-class Swift Wing exoskeleton suits have been fully integrated into all armies, and their B-class exoskeletons employ intricate skills allowing even Level 2 New Humans to wear them. The Peace Party, including my own Dongsheng Co-management, none of our B-class exoskeletons can be normally worn by Level 4 or higher New Humans."

"And furthermore..." Miao Luo paused, then continued, "Vice President, you may not know that Cloud Gorge Base developed A-level exoskeleton battle suits six months ago, did you?"

"A-level?" Hearing this, Xu Haishui’s expression also turned stern.

It took a long time for a Level 6 New Human to break through a B-class exoskeleton suit, but how strong was the defense of an A-level?

"Yes, A-level! Although we haven’t tested how strong its defense is, their data models already show that even Level 7 New Human strength isn’t enough to break it! It’s like an ordinary person trying to break through a piece of steel with their bare hands!"

"So strong."

"Yes, as a superpower in South China, the vice president is aware of City of Bright Moon, right? I need not mention this. Two months ago, when City of Bright Moon was in a covert battle with the Hidden Dragon Society, Su Sigui saw an A-level exoskeleton battle suit and immediately ordered a retreat. During the retreat, he was even wounded by two Level 6 New Humans. Although the wounds were minor, it was enough to demonstrate the power of the A-level exoskeleton battle suit."

"However, the A-level exoskeleton battle suit cannot be mass-produced due to the material used. Therefore, only the elite troops at Cloud Gorge Base are equipped with it. Moreover, only New Humans Level 5 and above can wear the A-level exoskeleton battle suit normally. This means the elite troops I mentioned consist of strong Level 5 New Humans."

"In that case, it really does seem troublesome." Xu Haishui tilted his head, his eyes flickering with a strange expression, and no one knew what emotions were in his heart at that moment.

After a while, Miao Luo added, "Right, here is the information on the A-level exoskeleton battle suit from Cloud Gorge Base, which I acquired at great cost."

As he spoke, Miao Luo took out a well-preserved blueprint from one of his subordinates. As soon as it was handed over, Xu Haishui grabbed it, unfolded it to see, and found himself staring at a layout of the suit and some manufacturing process details. However, the records were incomplete and fragmentary, with a black stain in the lower right corner.

Xu Haishui extended his thumb and touched the area, quickly realizing what it was.

These were dried-up bloodstains. It seemed, just as Miao Luo had claimed, that he had obtained this at great cost.

Probably many had died for it.

Shifting his gaze from the bloodstains, Xu Haishui quickly noticed a name.

Aurora Breather!

"This seems rather useless," he said. The materials and manufacturing process listed were incomplete; they were of no use to him, nor could he replicate one directly.

PS: Dear readers, due to a heavy red rainfall yesterday, my house got flooded and the county’s power grid went out. It’s been a day now. I have no power or network on my phone. I’m informing you in advance, I’m not sure when the power will be back.

From sweeping water from 1 AM until noon, I haven’t written a word, and even this notification is being sent using someone else’s phone.

I might have to take a leave tomorrow and perhaps the day after as well. Don’t worry about me discontinuing updates, please understand.

Sorry everyone.
