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

Kunlun underground base, command center.

Zhou Rui stared at the data reports on the holographic screen.

Operation Thunder in the Europa theater had only been going on for a day.

The "KPI assessment system" of the Great Xia Awakeners Headquarters is still in the drafting stage, and no official document has been issued yet.

The swift and decisive actions of the Great Xia Dynasty, coupled with the slightest leak of information.

The winds have shifted across all war zones around the world.

Those foreign high-level awakened individuals who had previously used various excuses to avoid high-risk missions are now vying to be pioneers.

In the mission lobby's backend system, the completion rate of high-risk cleanup missions has skyrocketed.

"A bunch of cowardly, ungrateful bastards."

Zhou Rui flipped through the data, and his attitude towards them wasn't very good either.

In the past, these foreign Tier 3 Awakened individuals, who possessed top-tier resources of the Great Xia Dynasty, were considered diligent if they could go out twice a week.

Now, they are dispatched three times a day, going out overnight to destroy the mutated beast's lair.

Just to prove my worth!

……

Shifting focus.

Thirty thousand feet above the African continent.

The Xuan Nu fighter jet cut through the clouds, followed closely by a heavy military transport plane.

Su Ran flipped through the briefing on the tactical tablet.

Bai Lu sat opposite, holding a cup of hot cocoa in her hand.

"These foreign awakened individuals have improved their awareness extremely quickly."

Su Ran scrolled through several task settlement sheets, a smile involuntarily creeping onto her lips.

"The performance evaluation system document hasn't even been officially issued yet, but they've already started frantically trying to boost their performance."

He knew very well that the massive propaganda machine of the Great Xia Dynasty was definitely behind this.

But as long as the enthusiasm of these foreign awakened individuals is mobilized, it will ultimately be a good thing for Great Xia.

Bai Lu took a sip of hot cocoa, her bright eyes darting around, but she didn't offer any comment.

She had no liking for these foreign awakened individuals.

Since the Great Xia provides the money and supplies, these people should go to the front lines and risk their lives; this is a matter of course.

"Su Ran, how do we conduct the test after we arrive at our destination?"

Bai Lu didn't continue the previous topic and went straight to the point.

The main purpose of this trip to Africa was to conduct a practical test of the one hundred Tier 3 Hellhounds equipped with the new armor.

These armors were extremely expensive, and Kunlun's military industry department worked through the night to produce them, sparing no expense for this special magical beast legion.

"Didn't Professor Zhang tell you before he left?" Su Ran looked up at Bai Lu.

"Professor Zhang just told me to find the most dangerous front line and airdrop the Hellhounds down there."

Bai Lu thought for a moment, then added,

He also specifically emphasized that there was no need to worry about casualties.

Each hellhound's specially designed armor is embedded with high-precision motion sensors and vital sign monitors; all he needs is for combat data to be transmitted back to the Kunlun base in real time.

Su Ran listened and wholeheartedly agreed.

"That's the best way to do it."

Su Ran genuinely felt that this method was good.

He firmly believed that no matter how beautiful a weapon is, it must be supported by bloodshed and real combat data.

"Real combat is the best testing ground; we'll airdrop directly to the front lines."

Now it was Bai Lu's turn to frown slightly.

"Aren't you going to develop a specific tactical plan?"

Bai Lu was somewhat suspicious and suggested...

"Should we request the Awakened Ones Headquarters' intelligence department to intervene and have them provide the latest distribution map of the mutated beasts?"

"Need not."

Su Ran refused very decisively.

"Intelligence data is inherently outdated. Besides, we have an overwhelming force with us; we can simply sweep them all away."

When faced with overwhelming strength, tactics become superfluous.

Bai Lu did not object and nodded in acceptance of the proposal.

The fighter jets flew south.

Several hours later.

The plains beneath the wings were no longer covered in snow.

The African continent, after the catastrophe, also became extremely polarized.

A fierce wind whipped up a cloud of red dust, reducing visibility to very low levels.

In mid-air, one could vaguely see the steel defense line built by the Great Xia Legion advancing step by step through the red sand.

The Xuan Nu fighter jet crossed the outermost defensive line of the Great Xia without slowing down and continued to plunge into the deepest part of the continent.

This is a true no-man's land.

Without the support of the Great Xia's vast supply network, the survivors in Africa would have long since perished.

The ruins of an old-world human city have long been occupied by mutated creatures, overgrown with purplish-red mutant plants that are tens of meters tall.

The alien creatures erased all traces of human existence.

Although the Great Xia Awakeners Headquarters issues a large number of high-risk missions every day, missions like this one, which delve into the heart of the no-man's-land and eliminate special mutated beasts, are still extremely rare.

In such an environment, even the most elite awakened squads would feel despair if they were to fall into a trap.

The fighter jets continued to penetrate deeper into the area.

Every now and then, enormous mutated beasts would raise their heads and roar at the fighter jets high in the sky.

"Advisor Su, radar shows a dense high-energy reaction ahead."

The voice of the transport plane pilot following closely behind could be heard over the communication channel.

A notification also came from the Xuan Nu fighter jet.

On the radar screen, the red dots representing the mutated beasts were densely packed together, forming a continuous expanse.

"A swarm of flying mutated beasts has been spotted at the 12 o'clock position! Over 500 in number! They are approaching at high speed!"

The driver's voice instantly rose an octave.

"Maintain the current speed and do not change course," Su Ran said.

The creature they encountered was a giant, strange bird that was over seven meters long.

They came charging straight at us in droves.

"It's a mutated Thunderbird."

Bai Lu glanced at the screen, then instantly released her mental energy, saying, "I'll clear them out."

His mental power surged forth, ready to crush them.

"I'll handle this. You just need to maintain your deep mental connection with the Warcraft Legion."

Su Ran pressed down on Bai Lu's shoulder, interrupting her spellcasting, and then gave an order to the fighter jet's AI.

"Disengage the evasion system and let the fighter jet collide head-on."

Hundreds of giant thunderbirds, their bodies covered in black feathers crackling with electric arcs, locked their crimson compound eyes on the Xuan Nu fighter jet.

They opened their long beaks, and dozens of thick bolts of lightning converged in their mouths.

They were about to concentrate their fire on the fighter jets.

Su Ran sat in her seat, her thoughts subtly shifting.

Infinite space, rules unfold.

Centered on the Xuan Nu fighter jet, the spatial rules within the surrounding area were instantly taken over by Su Ran.

"Pfft!"

The hundreds of thunderbirds at the forefront didn't even have time to scream before their massive bodies were instantly sliced ​​into millions of pieces by invisible spatial blades.

The lightning that had gathered in his mouth lost its carrier and collapsed in mid-air.

Blood rained down, mixed with tattered feathers.

The remaining mutated Thunderbirds immediately scattered and fled.

The Xuan Nu fighter jet flew through the rain of blood.

Su Ran withdrew her thoughts.

His gaze sharpened as he looked down at the horde of beasts below, which were growing increasingly ferocious and roaring wildly at the air because of the smell of blood.

"Radar scan, find the central area with the highest density of red dots, prepare for airdrop."

The fighter jets continued to penetrate deeper into the African interior.

The terrain below has changed drastically.

The once boundless desert was gradually replaced by a massive canyon.

Deep within the crack, a faint, high-energy light, tinged with dark red and eerie green, flickered.

"Beep beep beep."

The tactical tablet emitted a rapid alarm.

The red dot on the radar screen instantly spiked to a terrifying number.

"Advisor Su."

The driver reported loudly,

"A massive mutated beast nest has been detected at the bottom of the canyon ahead."

Energy band analysis indicates that there are more than 150 Tier 3 mutant beasts!

The life force of second-tier mutated beasts...exceeds 20,000!

This is a standard size for a mid-level mutated beast horde.

Without tens of thousands of troops and heavy firepower, it's impossible to resist them.

"That's about it, let's leave it at that."

Su Ran stood up, looked down at the herd of beasts through the porthole, and spoke in a cold voice.

"Notify the transport aircraft behind to open the airdrop hatch."

Rear airspace.

Military transport aircraft lowers altitude.

"Click click click!"

The rear hatch opens downwards under the push of a hydraulic rod.

Accompanied by the hum of machinery, a hundred pairs of scarlet, savage eyes suddenly lit up inside the cabin.
