Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1372 - 568: Any Objections?_2

Silver Serpent Base had scarce electricity and the prices were naturally high, only the upper echelons could afford it. Thus, ordinary people worked during the day and rested at night. Moreover, bright lights at night could easily attract the attention of the zombies outside the base.

Normally, nights at Silver Serpent Base were pitch-black. Coupled with the shielding from the Silver Snake Trees, even when flying overhead, it was difficult to spot Silver Serpent Base.

But now, Silver Serpent Base resembled a firefly in the dark night; from the air, one could easily see the fires on the ground. If flying zombies were to come at this time, Silver Serpent Base would be in danger.

"Silver Serpent Base is in chaos after all! But the problem is not big; it just means you’ll have to increase your workload."

After taking a careful look, Wang Tao turned to Cheng Yiyi and said.

"We are prepared for a tough battle."

Cheng Yiyi’s expression was solemn, but she was not too worried.

They had arrived not too late; it was clear that Silver Serpent Base had just started to descend into chaos not long ago. If with their strength, they couldn’t control Silver Serpent Base, they might as well find a piece of tofu and kill themselves with it.

"Ha-ha, alright, let’s go down then."

Wang Tao signaled Golden Eagle to land.

Whoosh—

The Golden Eagle landed on the treetops of several Silver Snake Trees.

Due to the obstruction of these Mutated Silver Serpent Trees, the Golden Eagle was too large to land completely and could only perch atop the treetops of Silver Snake Trees. Unless they demolished the trees, which was unnecessary since these Silver Snake Trees were Silver Serpent Base’s natural protective barrier.

"Let’s go down."

Wang Tao waved to everyone.

"Yes!"

Below the Golden Eagle, two factions were in a standoff. They were holding torches, machetes, and even handguns, looking at each other nervously but also with defiance.

As they were about to decide the victor, suddenly, a gust of wind came from above, startling the already tense crowd.

This was the apocalypse; they couldn’t relax at any slight disturbance.

"What’s happening!"

These people immediately retreated and then looked up into the sky.

But the sky was pitch black, except for the lightly swaying leaves of the Silver Snake Trees; nothing was amiss.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

They feared that some flying zombies were coming, but thankfully, it wasn’t so. If zombies had really come, they would have pounced already.

Bang!

Suddenly, the crowd felt a blur before their eyes, then the ground made a muffled sound, and the surrounding snow shattered.

A tall and burly black humanoid figure full of mechanical sense appeared between the two factions, making a small crater in the snow on the ground.

"What the hell! Mecha?"

The crowd was shocked by the sudden change, and they were confused.

Wang Tao had previously introduced Powered Armor in Silver Serpent Base, but at that time, only the higher-ups of Silver Serpent Base knew about it; the others didn’t get the news.

So both groups thought the other side was using some trick to scare them.

But when this nearly three-meter-tall Powered Armor pulled out a six-barreled Gatling Gun, with its eyes and gun barrels emitting a blue glow simultaneously targeting them, the sensation of a deadly threat told them this definitely was not something the other side could produce! In fact, this wasn’t even from Silver Serpent Base—it was an external force interfering!

So—Run!

Facing the unknown, this was their first thought.

But then, with "bang bang bang" sounds of landing, one by one, Powered Armors emitting blue flames appeared, some with Gatling Guns, some with long swords flashing with electric arcs, some carrying recoiless guns of unknown models, and some holding futuristic-looking sniper rifles larger than themselves...

The leaders of the two groups were sensible; they immediately threw down their machetes and knelt on the ground.

"I surrender, don’t kill us!"

Although they were Level 3 Ability Users, they didn’t think they could withstand the bullets from a Gatling Gun. Under such firepower, it would only take a fraction of a second to shred them all!

They had lived up to now in the apocalypse; their strength might not be great, but they had keen judgment.

Cheng Yiyi took control of these hundred-plus people without any effort.

She had expected some resistance, but there was none. Although this was good, Cheng Yiyi still felt a small disappointment for the lack of a fight.

"All individuals, lay down your weapons..."

Cheng Yiyi began her work.

Wang Tao did not disembark; he had Golden Eagle fly a bit further, arriving over the former military base of Silver Serpent Base.

If there were any factions within Silver Serpent Base worth cultivating, it was naturally the military of Silver Serpent Base. They were truly decent people and had made many efforts, but they were too weak to change Silver Serpent Base.

Although Wang Tao brought many Powered Armors and managers this time, they were still short-staffed, as managing over three hundred thousand people in Silver Serpent Base was not easy. It required the cooperation of locals and the military of Silver Serpent Base seemed very suitable, presumably eager as well.

However, when Wang Tao arrived over the military base, he found not only fully armed soldiers but also a large number of Ability Users and Awakeners.

Both sides were in a standoff, with tensions running high. But whether in numbers or overall strength, the military was not a match for the other side.

"Lu Ping, you better get out of the way! For the sake of a few radios, are you really willing to fight us to the death?"

In the crowd, an Awakener spoke impatiently.
