Chapter 858: Chapter 854: The Opportunity Given by Heaven

By now, the 709 Mine was entirely Jiuge’s!

In the Central United District.

Tang Ye took the report from the soldier’s hands and, upon reading its contents, his face instantly turned grim. The temperature around him seemed to drop several degrees at that moment.

The soldiers couldn’t help but shiver uncontrollably, not daring to look at the face of this United District overlord.

As for Tang Ye, there was no expression on his face, one could only say he was expressionless, making it unclear what was truly going on in his mind. Was it anger, or something else?

"Hahaha... very good, really very good!"

Suddenly, Tang Ye started to laugh, his laughter loud, yet it sounded eerily sinister. The more the soldiers listened, the more unsettling it felt—it was clearly the laughter of someone pushed to the brink.

"Jiuge... alright, you’ve done a very good job! I haven’t even made my move, and you’re already panicking. Since that’s the case, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"

Tang Ye’s face twisted hideously, but it quickly returned to calm. He looked at the soldiers in front of him and said, "Go call the Vice President here!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers couldn’t wait to leave and quickly agreed, hurrying off. Not long after, Ah Fu walked in alone.

"Boss, what’s up?"

"I have a task for you."

"What task?" Ah Fu was taken aback, then asked again.

"A good thing..." Tang Ye hesitated on his face but soon turned vicious.

Indeed, upon hearing the words "good thing" from Tang Ye’s mouth, Ah Fu’s eyes immediately lit up!

"Boss, what good thing?" Ah Fu asked eagerly, wanting to know the answer quickly.

"Let’s not rush this. First, go and call the Chen brothers, Chen Zhouquan and Chen Zhou’an over here."

"Oh~" Although Ah Fu was somewhat disappointed, he was very proactive and quickly left, soon returning with the Chen brothers.

"How is the expansion of the Dead Knight Corps going?"

"We’ve gotten proficient with the basic operations. If it came down to live combat, they should be capable. Now all they lack is real combat experience to hone themselves," Chen Zhou’an replied.

"Hmm, starting from tomorrow, you’ll be in charge. Issue an order for The Third Army to transport to the 709 Mine, along with you and your brother’s Dead Knight Corps."

After the Peace Party took over the United District, because the seven commissioners had many legions under them, General Xu Haishui reorganized these into five large legions for easier management.

"Marshal, are we..."

"Jiuge has already made their move, we don’t need to consider anything else. When you get there, by any means necessary, drive out Jiuge’s people! If you can’t drive them out, kill them all. Besides, I’ll be sending the Vice President with you."

"Jiuge has made their move?"

Upon hearing this, the Chen brothers were startled at first, but as they pondered the additional meaning in Tang Ye’s words, especially the part about "by any means necessary," they couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Tang Ye.

"Is this a determination to exterminate them all?" Chen Zhou’an pondered in his heart.

"Yes, all of our people at 709 Mine have been wiped out, including the survivors in the shelter zone. They sent out a bunch of kids, who would have thought they’d be child soldiers. Remember, over there, anyone from Jiuge must be killed! Don’t trust anyone from Jiuge!"

"Understood!"

The Chen brothers all nodded in agreement. Ruthless and merciless, they never flinched from doing what was necessary. The existence of Jiuge’s child soldiers didn’t concern them much, as the Chen brothers had seen their share of children with guns during their days with the bikers gang.

After some casual conversation and a few precautionary words from Tang Ye, he sent the Chen brothers on their way. As soon as they left, Ah Fu eagerly stepped forward and asked, "Boss, if I follow them there... is it..."

There were some things Ah Fu didn’t feel comfortable stating plainly, after all, unless the boss gave his approval himself, Ah Fu didn’t dare to make decisions on his own.

"Of course. When you get there, you can do whatever you want. Jiuge, those scum, have massacred a city, you don’t have to follow any moral code."

"Alrighty!"

Ah Fu was thrilled; he knew it would be this way. Suppressing one’s instincts in human society was a torment for a zombie.

"Leave tomorrow?"

"Yes." Tang Ye nodded.

By now, Tang Ye was fully intent on mass slaughter. The workers at 709 Mine had been obliterated by the armed forces, leaving not a single elderly person, child, or woman alive in the shelter zone. Only thirty-seven people escaped the massacre by Jiuge!

Tang Ye was furious at their massacre of the city. He, who had always believed in an eye for an eye, where would he continue to play the benevolent ruler?

The more vicious the enemy, the more brutal he would be! And in turn, the enemy had no right to complain about his ruthlessness!

Soon, the United District’s army mobilization order was issued, and the residents of the United District also learned what had happened at 709 Mine. They all began to shout slogans such as "strike back" and "hit them where it hurts!"

Moreover, the news that the Marshal was livid at the annihilation of the United District’s people at 709 Mine and had ordered the vice president of the Peace Party to personally go there was a shock to everyone. This seemed like a fight to the bitter end, fitting the character of the United District’s overlord.

In people’s hearts, Li Henian was seen as someone who would annihilate anyone who crossed him. Originally, the Seven Commissioners were only partners fighting over benefits, not letting any one of them secretly grow too powerful. Little did they expect the Peace Party to hold a grudge. As a result, out of the seven, only one remained; the Six Commissioners never cared about the consequences of their actions after their deaths. When it was time to kill, they killed!

Now that Jiuge had attacked 709 Mine, killing so many people, it was only normal that Li Henian would react.

The army mobilization put the United District, which had just recently calmed down, into a tense state of preparing for war once again. Amidst the posted mobilization orders, a seductively dressed woman elbowed her way through the crowd, settling next to a man. She couldn’t help but frown as she inhaled the white smoke continually exhaled by the man.

"What’s wrong? You see it?"

"Yes."

"What’s it about?"

"The Peace Party is going to move against Jiuge. The vice president Tang Fu is personally undertaking the mission. This could be our best opportunity."

Upon hearing the woman’s words, the man’s eyes lit up slightly: "Is this true?"

"Go and see for yourself, it’s written right there."

"Fine, I believe you. This is indeed a very good opportunity."

"With one fewer Level 6 New Human in the Peace Party, and considering that Hatred and Li Henian himself possess two Level 6 New Humans, it’s much easier than facing three Level 6 New Humans at once. This opportunity is not to be missed, as it won’t come around again. Have you thought it through? Are you going to take action? This is a chance given to us by the heavens. First, take out Li Henian and Hatred, and then deal with the big guy Tang Fu last."

The man took one last drag on his cigarette and smiled: "I have thought it through, how could I not? Let’s go. We’ll go back and tell the others about this news."
