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

Su Ran's eyes narrowed.

"It's precisely because dedication is gone that you must stay."

Mo Yun stepped forward and pressed down hard on Ye Xiao's shoulder, his voice steady.

"Old Ye, the global situation is only superficially stable now. The main force in China is expanding outwards, while the internal defenses are weak."

No one can guarantee that there won't be any hidden dangers that might erupt.

"Someone must remain at headquarters. That's a matter of discipline."

"The rear of the 1.2 billion people of Great Xia must be guarded by a third-tier combat force."

Su Ran's tone left no room for argument.

Ye Xiao opened his mouth, but knowing the bigger picture was more important, he finally gritted his teeth and spoke.

"Okay, I'll stay! Record lots of videos so I can feast my eyes!"

"Mo Yun, Bai Lu, get ready."

Su Ran gave the order, "Assemble on the tarmac in ten minutes."

……

Ten minutes later.

At the summit of Kunlun Mountain, the Xuan Nu fighter jet spewed flames as it ascended vertically, piercing the stratosphere.

In October, the air currents are stable at high altitudes.

Mo Yun sat on the left, his fingers rapidly swiping across the tactical tablet, accessing the autopsy data of the carrion vulture provided by the Academy of Sciences.

"Brother Su, what are your plans to do about these 10,000 mutated corpse vultures?" Mo Yun asked.

"have no idea."

Su Ran leaned back in her seat, her arms crossed. "There's still more than an hour to go. Let's hurry up and finalize our tactics."

His gaze swept over Mo Yun and Bai Lu.

"In the wasteland of the future, the mutated creatures we encounter will only become more and more powerful, and it's impossible for me to always be the one to find a solution."

Su Ran paused for a moment, then continued,

"Furthermore, if you can't even properly deal with these ten thousand hairy beasts, what will you use to fight against higher-level zombie kings or even mutated overlords in the future?"

Mo Yun did not refute, but quietly began to think of a solution.

The white deer sat by the window, tilting its head slightly.

"Nothing unexpected will happen."

Her voice was soft, yet it carried an undeniable confidence.

I think so too.

Mo Yun shrugged. "This battle is also meant to show those foreign awakened individuals."

Su Ran smiled but didn't reply.

"Ten thousand. If they are concentrated in one area, targeted elimination is the best option."

Mo Yun pointed to the holographic projection on the tablet.

"White Deer, help me stay in place high in the sky."

"I can release a 'Plague Cloud' directly from high in the sky, making the poisonous fog as thick as a real cloud, accumulating to its limit before falling like a torrential rain."

Mo Yun's expression turned serious.

"But I need to buy myself three minutes to make sure the group of corpse vultures doesn't scatter and leave the central area."

If a blockade cannot be achieved immediately, and a portion of the enemy is alerted, it could definitely cause significant losses to General Zhao's troops.

"Are you planning to cover the entire Eiffel Tower with poisonous fog?"

Bai Lu frowned slightly and raised a question in a cool tone.

"That's ten thousand highly mobile mutated corpse vultures. Can your power reserves withstand such a large-scale, continuous release?"

"The transition from second to third order is a qualitative change. It's not just a simple change of two plus one."

Mo Yun nodded confidently, "As long as you can buy me three minutes, I'm confident."

Su Ran nodded in agreement.

Su Ran nodded in satisfaction as she watched this scene.

The core of the tactics is very simple and straightforward.

A sufficient amount of poisonous mist gathered above the heads of the mutated corpse vultures. This poisonous mist was an integral part of Mo Yun's being.

"My mental domain can lock down the space around the Eiffel Tower."

Bai Lu replied calmly.

"But I'm not confident in maintaining a high-intensity mental output for three minutes."

"I'll fill in."

Su Ran made the final decision: "I can create an invisible air wall by folding space."

Tactics finalized.

There were no complicated troop movements or tedious firepower coverage simulations.

Three awakened beings, with just a few words of conversation, sentenced ten thousand high-level mutated beasts to death.

……

Two hours later.

The fighter jets crossed the ocean and continental shelf, entering the airspace of the western theater of operations in Europe.

Below, the leaden-gray clouds exuded a sense of oppression.

Western Front Command Post.

Zhao Tiejun stood in front of the holographic sand table, his brows furrowed.

"Commander! We've received the highest-level access code for the Kunlun main base!"

The radar operator shouted, "The Black Maiden fighter jet is over our position and is landing in Paris!"

"Only one fighter jet?" The chief of staff was stunned.

"Just one."

The radar operator repeated the sequence.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Tiejun laughed instead of getting angry, and clenched his fists tightly.

The fact that there was only one aircraft further demonstrates that Great Xia's true trump card has arrived.

Meanwhile, at Camp No. 3 outside the city.

More than a hundred foreign awakened individuals stood in the open space, looking up at the gray sky with frustrated expressions.

Just now, a group of foreign awakened individuals who had initially backed down went to the division commander's tent to volunteer for battle.

As a result, he didn't even get to see Zhao Tiejun before being scolded by his adjutant.

"A bunch of useless people, they can't be relied on when it matters. Now that someone from Great Xia has come to the rescue, they're all scrambling to step up."

"What exactly does that division commander surnamed Zhao mean?"

Austin, with an unlit cigar dangling from his lips, grumbled angrily.

"We kindly went to his tent to volunteer for battle, but we got a scolding from his adjutant!"

"Damn it, aren't they just making a fool of us?"

Long Yiwan was also furious, his face turning ashen, and he kicked over the ammunition box next to him.

In fact, they only had a thirty-minute internal struggle.

In the end, I decided to go ahead and give it a try.

According to their plan, they would put on a show and then retreat under the pretext of "insufficient ability and concern that they might disturb the mutated corpse vulture swarm and pose a threat to the garrison camp."

In this way, face is saved, and perhaps some points can still be earned in the Great Xia.

After all, a group of second-tier awakened individuals are quite safe as long as they don't get into a life-or-death battle.

They never dreamed that this mission would be intercepted by their own people from the Great Xia Dynasty.

"You say..."

Long Yiwan squinted, looking at the leaden-gray sky.

"Who exactly did Great Xia send to deal with this? That's ten thousand second-tier mutated beasts! How do they plan to handle it?"

Can a single human fighter take on ten thousand mutated beasts?

This seemed like a fantasy to them; they couldn't even imagine it.

"This can only be solved with nuclear weapons."

Austin paced anxiously.

"If they use nuclear weapons, even if we're 200 kilometers away, we'll be covered in radioactive fallout!"

"The Great Xia army hasn't started replacing their radiation suits, so they probably won't use nuclear weapons."

Long Yiwan analyzed with a frown.

Before he could finish speaking...

The high-altitude clouds were forcibly torn apart by a violent force.

"boom!!!"

A deafening sonic boom crashed down from above.

Everyone looked up.

A jet-black Xuan Nu fighter jet tore through the clouds and headed straight for the Paris city area ahead.

"What is that?" Austin's eyes widened.

"Only one plane is sent to its death?" Long Yiwan's face was full of disbelief.

Inside the Xuan Nu fighter jet.

The red light is on.

"Arrived at target airspace. Current altitude: 3,000 meters," the mechanical voice reported.

"Open the hatch," Su Ran ordered.

"Sizzle!"

At the rear of the fuselage, the heavy metal hatch slowly descended.

A howling wind rushed into the cabin, and the temperature plummeted.

Bai Lu stood up and walked to the edge of the cabin door.

Below, the Eiffel Tower is covered with countless cocoons of flesh, and a flock of black corpse vultures circles around it.

"Are you ready?" Su Ran slowly walked up behind the two of them.

"Hmm!" Bai Lu said softly.

"We can start anytime."

Mo Yun twisted his neck and spoke confidently.
