Black Silk Female Police Detective Exorcist

The officials and capitalists of the White Eagle regime are completely indifferent to the tragic future of the people; they only care about their own continued safe and prosperous lives.

The conditions proposed by the Holy Zhou Kingdom were somewhat harsh, but for the sake of a safe and prosperous life, the White Eagle officials and capitalists had no choice but to accept them and agreed to all the additional conditions.

However, those White Eagle officials and capitalists made another point: they wanted the Holy Zhou Kingdom to cooperate with them in staging a play.

After all, they had just sternly rejected the military aid from the Holy Zhou Kingdom a few days ago, but now they want the Holy Zhou Kingdom to send people to pick them up and leave White Eagle Continent. This will undoubtedly cause their reputation to plummet, and there is even a high probability that their army will mutini.

Although most of the officials and capitalists in the White Eagle are only thinking about themselves, there are still a very small number of passionate patriots who will not easily let them run away.

Therefore, it would be best for the Holy Zhou Kingdom to join the battle between the White Eagle Army and the Apocalypse Warriors on the West Coast as reinforcements, rescue those officials and capitalists, and escape with their wealth and technology before the patriotic fervor could react.

This proposal was reasonable, and the Holy Zhou Kingdom did not refuse it.

Once the overall plan is finalized, the next step is to develop specific plans.

Crossing the Pacific to pick up people and participating in at least one battle is a capability that ordinary military aircraft certainly cannot handle. They have to choose between fuel and weapons; either they go there but run out of fuel and have to fly back, or they lack the firepower to participate in combat.

The navy fleet is capable of this task, but the warships are too slow. It would take at least 20 days to cross the Pacific Ocean, and by the time they get there, the west coast would likely be deserted.

Therefore, the most suitable vessel for this mission is undoubtedly the newly commissioned Yaoguang.

In order to compensate for the fatal flaw of the Yaoguang ship being vulnerable to brainwave intrusion, Qin Huanyu was undoubtedly one of the candidates on the mission team list.

Qin Huanyu was not surprised at all by this, but what surprised her was that Yuan Tingxue and Yuan Baixue's mother, the Taoist Master Yuan Qi, would also be going!

Chapter 206 Who is calling the mothership?

"Master Yuan actually went to protect you."

Privately, Wu Xiqun quietly offered Qin Huanyu some answers:

"Sister Yu, haven't you realized it yet? You are now our national treasure of the Holy Zhou Kingdom. If necessary, we will bring you back even if we have to abandon the Yao Guang. This is Master Yuan's true mission. So, Sister Yu, don't think that just because you've become stronger you can act recklessly. The aliens, the White Eagles, and the Truth Society are not worthy of our trust."

"……I see."

Qin Huanyu was silent for a moment, then nodded seriously:

“I will be very careful, and try to bring back as many people as possible—not counting the officials and capitalists in White Eagle.”

"Yes, it's good that you understand this, Sister Yu. We all believe in your abilities."

Wu Xiqun smiled, then grasped one of the child's hands in her arms, and together they waved to Qin Huanyu:

"Come on, Tongtong, say goodbye to Auntie."

"Oops... Oops~~"

The little girl actually waved, seemingly wanting to say goodbye, but unfortunately her vocal cords were still not fully developed, and she only made a sound that sounded a bit like a little devil.

A few days ago, while the Holy Zhou Kingdom was patiently observing the movements of White Eagle Continent, the little girl finally turned one month old. The Empress personally held a banquet to bestow a name upon her and also formally recognized Qin Huanyu as her godmother.

Two years later, when Wu Xiqun officially ascends the throne, the little girl will call her and Nangong Yue "Mother Empress" and "Mother Mother," while she will always call Qin Huanyu "Big Mother."

The little girl's nickname is Tongtong, and her full name is Wu Yitong.

Although the Empress offered many explanations when choosing the name, everyone knew that it was actually a homophone of the first two characters of "unifying the world".

Although the empress rarely intervenes in affairs anymore, her ambition to dominate has not cooled. Her greatest wish now is probably to see the Holy Zhou Kingdom achieve true unification of human civilization before she dies.

After figuring out the real reason why Yuan Qi would also be going with her from Wu Xiqun, Qin Huanyu spent another night with Yi Youyou before the mission began.

Yi Youyou didn't say anything sentimental, but simply told Qin Huanyu to be careful, and then handed her the two family heirlooms, the cursed doll and the nail-headed awl, again.

The next day, just as dawn broke, the Yaoguang took off again, heading eastward.

. . . . .

It is located in the southwest of White Eagle Island, about 200 kilometers from the coastline.

There is a Melvin Nuclear Power Plant here, a very important energy facility in the White Eagle Federation, but unfortunately it has been taken over by the Church of Apocalypse.

The West Coast is the economically prosperous area of ​​the White Eagle Federation, but it is heavily reliant on external energy supplies. It has some energy facilities, but it is completely unable to be self-sufficient.

Now, the White Hawk government can only directly control the West Coast region, making the energy situation even more strained. Electricity prices in cities have increased nearly a hundredfold, and many ordinary people can no longer afford electricity.

Even so, the West Coast still lacks electricity, so taking back the Melvin Nuclear Power Plant, a vital energy facility located very close to the West Coast, naturally became part of the White Hawk government's plan, and no one thought there was anything wrong with the plan.

According to the intelligence agency's special agents, the number of Apocalypse Warriors stationed at the Melvin Nuclear Power Plant by the Church of the Gospel of Apocalypse is not large, only about 200, and can be taken down by a surprise attack with elite forces.

At a distance of approximately 200 kilometers from the coastline, it is well within the defensive range of the elite White Eagle naval fleet. With air support that can arrive within minutes from carrier-based aircraft, even if the Apocalypse Warriors wanted to launch a counterattack, the White Eagle Army stationed at the nuclear power plant would have no fear.

Ultimately, the 072nd Marine Regiment of the White Eagle Army accepted the mission to retake the Melvin Nuclear Power Plant and garrison it.

The organization of the White Eagle Army is similar to that of the Holy Zhou Army. The White Eagle Army's Marine Corps is equivalent to the Holy Zhou Combined Arms Brigade. The commanders are usually lieutenant colonels or colonels, and the commanders of a few elite corps can be senior colonels or even brigadier generals.

The 072nd Marine Regiment is one of the White Eagle's elite Army units, commanded by Colonel Jim, who is likely to be promoted to brigadier general if he completes this mission.

So even though the mission was somewhat dangerous and the lieutenant general who gave the order made a rather strange request, Colonel Jim accepted the mission without much hesitation.

The 072nd Marine Regiment had over 1400 combat-ready soldiers. Colonel Jim ordered 300 of them to quietly circle around to the other side of the Melvin Nuclear Power Plant to scout and intercept any possible reinforcements from the Church of the Apocalypse. The remaining 1100 men were led by his two deputies, each with 500, to launch an attack from two different directions.

As the elite force of the White Eagle Army, the 072nd Marine Regiment has fought against Apocalypse Warriors before and is quite familiar with their combat capabilities.

The Apocalypse Warriors are alien bio-engineered soldiers with superhuman physical abilities. They can reach speeds of around 300 kilometers per hour, punch a tank's armor to create a dent, overturn a 2-ton car, and withstand more than a dozen rifle bullets without any loss of combat power.

There is no doubt that the Apocalypse Warriors are extraordinary beings, but ordinary soldiers are not invincible.

Countless White Eagle soldiers have learned, at the cost of their lives, that approximately 80 rifle bullets are enough to incapacitate an Apocalypse Warrior. Armor-piercing incendiary rounds are even more effective, as Apocalypse Warriors are somewhat vulnerable to fire.

The rifle bullets used by soldiers of the 072nd Marine Corps now contain small amounts of white phosphorus and magnesium powder, and many soldiers are also equipped with flamethrowers.

The attack started off smoothly.

The Church of the Apocalypse seemed completely unprepared for the White Eagle Army on the West Coast to dare to launch a counterattack... even though they were already struggling to maintain their defensive lines and existing territory.

The Apocalypse Warriors stationed at the Melvin Nuclear Power Plant were caught off guard, with at least dozens of them wiped out in one fell swoop, howling as they collapsed in the flames.

But the Apocalypse Warriors quickly began to fight back.

They have extremely high explosive power. Their speed of around 300 kilometers per hour allows them to dodge most bullets even when facing concentrated fire from multiple automatic rifles, and they can cover a distance of several hundred meters in the blink of an eye.

No attack skills are needed; simply by ramming their bodies, the Apocalypse Warriors can easily smash the White Eagle soldiers to pieces. Those lucky enough will suffer broken bones all over their bodies, while those unlucky might be completely shattered.

Not to mention that each of the Apocalypse Warriors can split their lower half of their face and shoot out tentacles. The strength of each tentacle is no less than that of a steel rope, and with a high-speed ramming attack, they can easily cut White Eagle soldiers in half at the waist.

Even though the White Eagle soldiers had clashed with the Apocalypse Warriors multiple times and were equipped with targeted weapons such as armor-piercing incendiary bullets and flamethrowers, they still inevitably began to suffer casualties when faced with the Apocalypse Warriors' explosive charges.

However, battles with zero casualties are extremely rare. In Colonel Jim's mind, casualties in this battle would be acceptable as long as they did not exceed 200.

The White Eagle Army had 1000 soldiers participating in the attack, while the Apocalypse Warriors only numbered around 200. The White Eagle soldiers also had the initial advantage, so they should have been able to take the city.

In fact, the first wave of attacks by the 072nd Marine Regiment killed more than 80 Apocalypse Warriors.

The Apocalypse Warriors then launched a counterattack, and more than 50 more Apocalypse Warriors were killed by armor-piercing incendiary bullets or flamethrowers during their charge. In the end, fewer than 70 Apocalypse Warriors reached the White Eagle soldiers.

Seventy Apocalypse Warriors charged into a group of 1000 soldiers. Normally, these 1000 soldiers would be far too few to kill, as the individual strength of the two sides was too disparate.

However, the 1000 soldiers of the White Eagle Army were not gathered together, but were separated into small teams of about 30 men each, about 100 meters apart.

A few Apocalypse Warriors could indeed kill the entire White Eagle squad within seconds of getting close to them, but during this time they would also be continuously targeted and attacked by other White Eagle soldiers, and would fall before they could even charge towards the second squad.

Using this tactic, the 072nd Marine Regiment killed all the Apocalypse Warriors stationed at the Melvin Nuclear Power Plant, sacrificing only three squads, no more than 100 men. Their next mission was to move into the nuclear power plant for defense.

However, before Colonel Jim could issue the order to move into the nuclear power plant, his pupils contracted.

Inside the Melvin Nuclear Power Plant, a large number of Apocalypse Warriors suddenly emerged, exceeding the total number of Apocalypse Warriors stationed at the plant as reported in the intelligence, possibly exceeding 500!

Having lost the initial advantage and the absolute numerical superiority, the White Eagle soldiers were no match for the White Eagles due to the huge difference in physical strength.

Within minutes, the 1000 White Eagle soldiers led by Colonel Jim's two deputies were unilaterally slaughtered by the Apocalypse Warriors. Afterward, the Apocalypse Warriors did not return, but instead charged directly towards Colonel Jim's command post, which was more than 10 kilometers away.

"...It's all over."

Colonel Jim murmured to himself, then slumped into a chair inside the command vehicle.

While the Apocalypse Warriors can only reach speeds of 300 kilometers per hour for short bursts, their normal running speed ranges from 80 to 120 kilometers per hour. This distance of over 10 kilometers is absolutely impossible for an armored vehicle to cover, and the remaining 100 soldiers are no match for them.

The complete annihilation of the 072nd Marine Corps seems to be beyond redemption.

"It's too late to call for help now... Hmm, wait... call for help?"

In despair, Colonel Jim had a sudden flash of inspiration and remembered something—his direct superior, the lieutenant general, had done something very strange before he left.

With less than two hours left before departure, the lieutenant general suddenly summoned Colonel Jim to his office, gave him an old-fashioned, seemingly ordinary radio, and mysteriously instructed him:

"If you encounter an emergency, try using this radio to call for help... Remember to use a public broadcast for help."

At the time, Colonel Jim didn't pay much attention, thinking that his superior had finally had a mental breakdown due to too much pressure.

The entire White Eagle Continent is now without internet access. Satellites and undersea cables are useless. What kind of support can an old-fashioned radio call in?

But with hundreds of Apocalypse Warriors arriving in minutes, Colonel Jim didn't have much time to overthink things—if he didn't want to be torn apart by the tentacles, he had no choice but to take a gamble and try the radio.

Following the instructions of the lieutenant general, Colonel Jim located the radio and immediately used full-frequency broadcasting to request assistance:

"I am Jim, commander of the 072nd Marine Regiment of the White Eagle Federation Army! We were ambushed by Apocalypse Warriors during a mission and have been almost completely wiped out... Whoever it is, please come to our aid immediately. The White Eagle Federation will reward you handsomely!"

Jim kept shouting similar things out on that old-fashioned radio.

I shouted myself hoarse, but still received no response.

Colonel Jim gave a desperate, bitter laugh and slumped back into his chair.

"So it really didn't work? I knew it... Even satellite communication is useless here, so what kind of support could an old-fashioned radio broadcast possibly bring?"

zizi.

Just then, the old-fashioned radio rang.

A few seconds later, a pleasant female voice rang out, speaking in perfect, clear Sheng Zhou dialect:

"This is the Yao Guang mothership of the Holy Zhou Kingdom. Who is calling for backup?"

The army of the Holy Zhou Kingdom?

Colonel Jim was taken aback. As the commander of the elite army, he was fluent in the language of Saint Zhou, after all, Saint Zhou had always been the biggest hypothetical enemy of the White Eagle Federation.

—The Yaoguang aircraft carrier… I’ve never heard of it. Is it one of the new aircraft carriers that the Holy Zhou Kingdom has quietly launched in the last two years? But this place is still 200 kilometers away from the coastline. How could an aircraft carrier receive an old-fashioned radio distress signal?

With many doubts in his mind, Colonel Jim couldn't worry about the Apocalypse Warriors who were about to rush over; survival was the priority.

At this critical moment, we would accept any help, not just from the Holy Zhou Kingdom, but even from those cultists in the north, Colonel Jim!

So he loudly requested backup again, and gave his coordinates. After he finished speaking, he asked again, somewhat nervously and curiously:

"Your ship should be at sea right now, right? Will support arrive in time? The enemy could reach us in just 3 minutes... Have you made another breakthrough with your hypersonic missiles?"

"...Tell your men to be mentally prepared so they won't be too surprised later."

The female voice on the old-fashioned radio didn't say anything more, only offering another reassuring remark:

"Don't worry, our fire support will be here soon."

"Coming soon?"

Colonel Jim was even more puzzled, but the old-fashioned radio was no longer responding to him.

With countless questions in his mind, but facing life and death, Colonel Jim had no other choice but to order all 100 soldiers around him to hide in the armored vehicle and not to panic no matter what happened.

Soon, Colonel Jim noticed that it was getting dark.

He looked up and saw that the previously clear sky had suddenly become covered with dark clouds, with flashes of lightning appearing and disappearing in the rolling black clouds, as if a storm was about to break.

Colonel Jim remembered very clearly that the weather forecast for this area today was sunny turning cloudy, and there was absolutely no way a storm of this magnitude could occur.

—Could this be the support that the Holy Zhou Kingdom was talking about? Have they developed some new weapon that can control the weather?

Just then, Colonel Jim saw some humanoid shadows rapidly approaching in the distance; they were the Apocalypse Warriors of the Apocalypse Church.

"Fuck Fuck!"

Colonel Jim swore and then quickly looked up at the sky.

He originally intended to make a prayer gesture as usual, but then suddenly remembered that the Church of the Apocalypse was now the enemy of the earth, so he could only make a somewhat awkward gesture:

"Whatever your support is, hurry up and come!"

After shouting, Colonel Jim stared nervously at the approaching Apocalypse Warriors, hoping that some cutting-edge superweapon could unleash divine light to wipe them out.

However, no, the Apocalypse Warriors continued to run at high speed in a strange posture, and you could even see the hideous tentacles on their cracked faces.

—Could it be that it's still too late?

Just as Colonel Jim was feeling a sense of despair once again, the dense dark clouds overhead finally began to stir.

Crack!

Dozens of dazzling silver-blue lightning bolts struck simultaneously, accurately hitting the Apocalypse Warriors charging at the forefront, electrocuting them to the ground, convulsing, unable to rise again.
