In the apocalypse, I hoarded goods and handed over my storage space to the government.

(Drinking culture is harmful; I have a headache from drinking today. The first version was written yesterday and published without any revisions; this is the revised version.)

"Click".

Cai Yi pulled down the mask, and the HUD interface of the exoskeleton lit up with a dark blue data stream.

System self-check complete.

[Xingtian-I Type Power Module: Normal]

[Core Output Power of Crystal Energy: 100%]

[External Environment Monitoring: Safety]

A cold, electronic synthesized voice rang in my ears.

"Let's go!"

He patted Ouyang Fei on the shoulder and boarded the plane first, saying, "Let those awakened ones see what professional clearing out looks like."

Twenty helicopters took off, weaving a giant net in the air and rushing towards all directions of Daxia.

……

Kunlun Base, Supreme Command Center.

Su Ran held his teacup, watching this scene, the steam blurring his vision.

"What, worried your geniuses will lose?"

Li Guodong walked over at some point and stood beside him, also watching the departing aircraft.

"Win or lose?"

Su Ran spoke up, "Old Li, did you hear Lin Feng's last order?"

"I heard you."

Li Guodong nodded, his eyes filled with satisfaction. "These are the soldiers I have."

So that's why.

Su Ran turned around, her gaze deep.

"The awakened ones now are like newly sharpened knives, eager to pierce a hole in the sky."

But they only knew how to kill, not why they killed.

"And the group of soldiers Lin Feng led..."

Su Ran pointed out the window, "They know when to draw their swords, and they also know when to sheathe them to protect the people behind them."

"This is the mark of a mature army."

Li Guodong was silent for a moment, then grinned and said, "They are my soldiers after all."

However, Xiao Su, don't be too optimistic.

The Awakened Ones are leading by 420,000 points; these special forces soldiers will probably have to risk their lives for the next five days.

A cold glint flashed in Su Ran's eyes.

"Then let them fight! If an unyielding Great Wall of Steel could appear in this lifetime, it would be a blessing for Great Xia!"

……

The skies over an occupied area in North China.

"We've arrived! Altitude 300 meters, prepare to rappel!"

The cabin door opened, and a gust of wind carrying a putrid stench rushed in.

Cai Yi peeked out.

Below are countless black dots, like ants crawling all over a piece of moldy bread.

"Captain, the zombies down there are all level one. The points aren't high."

The voices of my new teammates came through the communication channel.

"As long as the quantity is large enough."

Cai Yi's voice came through the bone conduction headphones, chillingly calm.

"With the exoskeleton's 'overload mode' activated, there's no need for any tactical maneuvers."

He drew a crystal energy battle blade, more than a meter long, from behind his back, its blade radiating dangerous high-frequency shockwaves.

"The ten of us are like a meat grinder."

"Just jump down, kill your way from south to north, and flatten it for me!"

"Down!"

Ten black steel figures, with an indomitable momentum, crashed into the center of the zombie horde.

"boom!"

Before the smoke and dust had cleared, hundreds of zombies, drawn by the sound, roared and pounced forward.

Rotting arms stretched out like a forest, trying to grab the fresh flesh and blood before them.

"Click".

A crisp mechanical meshing sound rang out.

Amidst the smoke and dust, a massive foot covered in black alloy armor stomped out, crushing the head of an oncoming zombie to pieces.

Red and white things splashed everywhere, but they couldn't leave a single mark on the matte black armor.

Cai Yi raised his head, and the eerie blue light on the exoskeleton mask drew two cold arcs in the dim light.

"Free fire".

He coldly uttered four words in the squad channel.

"Da da da da da!"

The next second, ten tongues of fire spewed out simultaneously.

The first row of zombies at the very front didn't even have time to react before their upper bodies exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

There's no need to aim for weaknesses.

No need for a headshot.

If it hits, it will shatter.

"Proceed."

Cai Yi held the gun, his steps not faltering even as he fired.

The power source on the back of the "Xingtian" exoskeleton emitted a deep hum, and ten warriors formed a standard wedge formation.

Just one minute.

The square, which was originally densely packed with corpses, was cleared out, creating a fan-shaped blank area.

"Reload."

Cai Yi's voice was completely flat.

He continued to suppress the enemy with his gun in his right hand, while his left hand slid to his waist, the movement so fast that it was just a blur.

A new crystal energy magazine was slammed into the gun slot, and before the old magazine even hit the ground, the muzzle was already spitting fire again.

The firepower was seamlessly integrated throughout the entire process.

This is what a professional soldier is like.

Wherever this team of "iron men" went, they truly left no survivors.

"roar!"

A second-tier strength-type zombie burst through the horde of zombies, its mutated, enormous right arm slamming down like a battering ram onto the outermost warrior.

However, the soldier did not even try to dodge.

He simply turned slightly to the side, and the tower shield on the exoskeleton's left arm popped out.

"when!"

Sparks flew everywhere.

That blow, powerful enough to smash through a wall, was actually blocked! The ground beneath the soldier's feet cracked, but he did not retreat an inch.

The next second, all three rifles simultaneously turned their muzzles.

Focus fire.

Puff puff!

The second-tier zombie didn't even have time to scream before it was riddled with holes and its massive body collapsed with a crash.

"Reporting to the captain, the first round of clearing is complete."

"Collect the crystal cores," Cai Yi said.

"yes!"

Everyone spoke at the same time.

Five minutes later.

"Reporting to Captain Cai."

Zhao Dapeng's voice came through, "A total of 124 Tier 1 crystal cores have been collected. Points total: 1240."

"It's too slow. It's not cost-effective to clean such low-density areas."

Cai Yi pressed the communicator, "Ouyang, lure the monster."

"receive."

At the rear of the group, Ouyang Fei raised his hand, and a small sonic wave inducer mounted on his shoulder was launched and attached to the wall of a nearby building.

"Buzz!"

The piercing high-frequency noise instantly penetrated the entire industrial park.

In the distance, the previously aimless shadows began to stir.

Cai Yi looked at the overwhelming tide of corpses, a slight smile playing on his lips.

That's enough.

He raised his gun, and his exoskeleton feet gripped the ground tightly, forming two stable anchor points.

"All units, fire!"
