Is this okay?

"Grenades, one shot, four at once, hehe!"

"Why can't we build nuclear bombs? The long-term potential would be huge! Hehehehe..."

People are obsessed.

Chapter 320 My lord, times have changed!

As the steel plant operated, heavy impacts echoed throughout the entire Study Cave area, as if there were no other sounds at this moment, only the flow of molten steel and the impact of the stamping press.

Thick smoke, high temperatures, the clanging of steel, accompanied by Madoka's loud laughter, as if all the unease in the world had disappeared, leaving only the final hysterical madness.

"Hahahaha! Hahahaha!"

Suddenly, it seemed as if some world-destroying demon was rising within the steel factory.

Homura Akemi said it was none of her business. She sat in Kyubey's chair, used the table Kyubey made, drank the tea Kyubey brought her, and peacefully enjoyed everything in front of her.

The peaceful atmosphere stood out starkly against the surrounding steel.

But it doesn't matter!

Everyone is doing their own way to save everyone, so overall everything is fine.

Immediately afterwards, the big tree guarded the patrolling hillside.

A player dressed in camouflage combat gear stared at the large tree guard ahead and shouted:

"Everyone, prepare! Target the large tree guarding the front! Bombard for three minutes when saturation is achieved!"

"Fire!"

Boom boom boom! !

Instantly, countless RPGs from all directions guarded by the giant tree were fired at his location as if they were free.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

With a huge explosion, everything in front was annihilated, and the bombardment did not stop even when the tree guard was killed by the tenth shot.

They said they'd fry it for three minutes, and it'll be three minutes! Not a second less!

This isn't a battle; it's an outburst of anger from players who've been brutally killed by the Tree Guardians hundreds or thousands of times. It's also a declaration to the world that times have changed!

After three minutes of saturation bombardment, the commander shouted loudly.

"Attention, everyone! Target: checkpoint camp—! Charge with me—!!"

"Ura!!!!"

In an instant, the charge began. Each player, dressed in combat uniforms and wielding an AK47, charged forward madly, firing even at a passing sheep, and collecting the corpses into their backpacks. After the charge, they prepared to have a snack.

As for the soldiers outside the checkpoint, they were riddled with bullets before they even realized what was happening.

The players smiled happily when they saw the enemies fall so easily.

"My lord, times have changed!"

"Come on—!"

"We won't die anyway—! Charge!"

Countless players abandoned all thought and charged blindly, frantically rushing towards the cliff under the command of their incompetent commander, only to fall to their deaths.

The entire team was wiped out.

……

After the first charge, the battle report reached Senior Xiaoyuan.

She stared at the battle report in her hand, her face showing the expression of an old man looking at his phone, her mind filled with "Holy crap!"

Sitting opposite her was the commander of the first assault force. At this moment, the commander had not even recovered yet, drooling with a look of utter madness, shouting that he wanted to charge again!

"Then can you explain why the casualties were zero when capturing the pass, but the second charge went in the wrong direction and the entire charging force rushed off the cliff and was wiped out?"

"Aba aba aba, for victory—!"

"so?"

"Aba aba aba, just charge!"

"..."

How did you become a commander?

Xiaoyuan was completely stunned by this answer, and even felt a sense of bewilderment, as if asking, "What's going on? What's going on here?"

Then there is no more.

This commander continued to serve as commander because, compared to others, he could at least return to his roots; as for the ordinary members of the assault force, they were nothing more than ruthless assault machines.

All he knows is charging forward; ask him anything, and all he says is "charge forward."

The commander, at least, will say a few more "aba aba aba".

After all, everyone is under a lot of pressure. They rush around during the day and work in the factory at night. They have no time to rest at all, and their minds have long since lost their senses.

But it doesn't matter!

Senior Xiaoyuan believed that under her command, the entire border area could be taken over in just one week!

……

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Leng Mo had already entered the academy by this time, and the number of wooden crates had increased from three to four. It could be said that the Poison Mist Squad was full of unprecedented combat power.

Inside the academy, Argo, who was lurking in the shadows, felt uncomfortable and began to complain.

“Don’t we have any other options? Isn’t this situation a bit too strange?” Argo said, while spitting poison mist at the mage beside him.

"That's true, this situation is indeed a bit too inefficient."

Upon hearing this, Leng Mo frowned. There was simply no way to accelerate the poisoning process.

"In that case, let's discuss it first."

“No problem, I also think this efficiency is too slow.” Kayaba Akihiko nodded in agreement, fully agreeing with the idea.

So, Leng Mo led everyone to a safe table to sit down and discuss the next steps.

After all, the academy is too big, and it will take at least a few days to push it all the way there.

This is too slow.

Since that's the case, let's increase efficiency.

Sitting at the table in the academy's main hall, Leng Mo looked thoughtfully at Argo, Kayaba Akihiko, Rodrika, and Melina, who had just appeared.

"Does anyone have any immature ideas? Share them so we can discuss them."

"Is there anything that's large-scale and safe?" Argo offered his opinion, feeling that this was exactly what was needed right now.

"In the context of our current battle, poison fog is an excellent tactical technique, but the range of this poison fog is too small."

"Oh, I understand. Then let's expand the area covered by the poisonous fog."

Upon hearing this, Leng Mo clearly understood the needs of those present, and even his eyes flashed with a sharp light as he devised a perfect plan.

"What do you mean?" Kayaba Akihiko couldn't help but ask.

"It's very simple. The academy is divided into three parts: the school buildings, the library, and the Cuckoo Church. Our target is in the library, which means we only need to eliminate the enemies in the school buildings and the library. And the school buildings and the library are similar to enclosed environments. Isn't that perfect?"

Upon hearing this, Kayaba Akihiko's eyes flashed with a sharp light, as if he understood something.

"You're saying we'll occupy the ventilation shafts and then spew poisonous mist into them? If that happens, large numbers of people could be poisoned instantly."

"That's right!"

Leng Mo affirmed Kayaba Akihiko's question, his tone serious.

Argo, standing nearby, raised his hand and said, "Impossible, right? The poisonous fog couldn't possibly travel that far during its duration."

"Isn't that simple? We can just blow it, right?"

"Huh? Blowing?"

Argo was completely bewildered, having no idea what "blowing" meant.

Chapter 321 Burning My Calories—!

About half an hour passed.

Rodrika placed a huge fan in front of the ventilation opening on the roof of the academy building, while simultaneously exhaling large amounts of poisonous mist. As the fan rotated, the poisonous mist spread throughout the entire academy building at the fastest speed.

As for the fan's power...

Leng Mo, Argo, and Kayaba Akihiko were sitting side by side in front of a bicycle-like device, pedaling their legs frantically.

To boost morale, Leng Mo even kindly took out his phone and played some upbeat cycling music.

Music is what burns my calories.

Leng Mo even started singing along.

"The first thing I do every morning is to give myself a pep talk! And every time I eat an extra grain of rice, I have to apologize!"

"..."

"Calories, calories, calories, calories, calories, calories, calories, calories, calories, calories, calories..."

"..."

"Burn my calories—!!"

"..."

Leng Mo rode with such dashing speed, his smile never fading, and even growing more and more enthusiastic. Argo and Kayaba Akihiko, however, were quite different.

Not only are they exhausted, but they also have to endure such toxic music and the rhythm of their movements.

They knew perfectly well that no one was around, but for some inexplicable reason, they felt that their social anxiety level was a bit too high, and it would be incredibly embarrassing if someone saw them.

Meanwhile, Rodrika, who was watching the poisonous mist being exhaled by the fan, was even a little eager to try it out when she saw Leng Mo and the other two looking so excited and passionate.

"Yo yo yo! How dare you mess around! Hey, buddy, let's go! We're about to speed up, let's burn our calories!" Leng Mo looked like an athletic champion, breathing heavily and kicking his legs with all his might, he was even more professional than a fitness coach.

Argo and Kayaba Akihiko couldn't stand it.

"This doesn't look right at all! Is this really going to work?!" Argo complained to Leng Mo in a frenzy, his legs kicking frantically without stopping.

"Believe in yourselves, believe in us, and believe in the poison fog! As long as we accelerate—and generate enough wind—we can instantly fill the entire school building. Once all the monsters are poisoned, we can wipe out all the enemies in the school building in the time it takes to complete a single spinning class. Is there any faster way?"

"..."

That being said, why do I feel no sense of close combat at all, and even feel like I want to quit?

"Kayaba Akihiko! Aren't you going to say something?"

Argo couldn't bear it any longer and turned to look at Kayaba Akihiko, only to see Kayaba Akihiko kicking his legs in pain and letting out painful screams.

"Hmph! Hmph!"

"..."

That's it, this guy is beyond saving.

Argo was speechless when he saw Kayaba Akihiko's state of abandoning thought and turning into a ruthless leg-kicking machine.

……

Meanwhile, inside the college campus.

Kazuma cut down enemies with ease, slashing down any who stood in his way.

But then he frowned, shocked.

"What?!? I've been poisoned?!"

"But it doesn't matter! I've already prepared poisonous moss medicine!"

Kazuma acquired quite a few items along the way, including poisonous moss medicine, which is specifically for treating poisoning.

One sip and the poisoning symptoms immediately disappeared.

A victorious smile spread across his face, and then he was poisoned again.
