Chapter 16: Chapter 16 This will be your Future Residence!
At Ji Yan's command, the Guard Team quickly formed a battle formation! Nearly a hundred vehicles roared their engines, charging in from all directions. The one or two hundred thousand zombies gathered in front of the Shelter were instantly subjected to a brutal cleansing.
"Kill! Hahahaha!"
"Brothers, hit them hard!"
"Ram through! Grind them to death."
"Da da da!"
"Boom boom boom!"
The soldiers in the vehicles cheered excitedly. Various heavy machine guns and automatic rifles swept across the area. Bullets rained down like a storm. Large numbers of zombies were instantly mowed down like wheat, flying backward.
Immediately after, high-explosive grenades were thrown, and the violent blast waves tore the zombies to shreds.
The remaining scattered zombies simply could not stop the crushing force of the heavy bulldozers; the convoy crashed through mightily, and everything in its path was crushed into dust.
"Holy cow, holy cow, so cool! So fierce!"
"What kind of unit are these people from? Why are they so ruthless?"
"Look, on the other side, there's actually a massive base? When was this base built? I'm a local, how come I don't know about it?"
"That's not right, there's no military base like this in Dongjiang City."
The survivors in the vehicles discussed nervously while carefully observing their surroundings.
Especially the underage orphans, their gazes towards the Guard Team soldiers were filled with excitement and fervent admiration.
Clearly, this small-scale engagement had left a deep impression on them.
The Guard Team's powerful firepower also gave them a strong sense of security amidst their panic.
"Immediately open the base gate and welcome Commander back," Vermillion Bird, who was directing the battle from the wall, decisively issued the order: "Everyone else prepare to throw Molotov cocktails to block the zombies!"
"Yes, sir!"
The soldiers of the Maintenance Team and Management Team quickly responded!
Although they were artificial humans with special skills, combat was also their instinct, and their various combat skills were quite outstanding.
The heavy machine guns on the wall fired wildly, continuously shooting down approaching zombies!
The gate slowly opened, and six convoys filed in, safely returning to the base.
"Awoooo!"
The zombies frantically tried to chase them inside. At this moment, beer bottles were thrown down from the wall.
These beer bottles were filled with gasoline; when lit and thrown down, they quickly exploded into a sea of fire, burning the approaching zombies and making them shriek miserably.
After a series of onslaughts, more than half of the zombies at the base's main entrance had been eliminated.
The gate slowly closed again; the heavy steel gate brought a huge sense of security to everyone.
"Where is this place?"
On the bus. While the survivors breathed a sigh of relief, they also became curious! Looking around, everyone was inside a massive base.
In the very center seemed to be a dome-shaped building, surrounded by parking lots or runways, currently filled with fuel tankers and pickup trucks.
"So many fuel tankers? How is that possible?"
"Is this stored gasoline?"
Everyone gasped in surprise.
A hint of curiosity suddenly arose in everyone's hearts regarding this mysterious base.
What kind of organization or power is this? Why would they store so much gasoline?
Why would there be so many soldiers?
With numerous questions, everyone subconsciously looked at Ji Yan.
Because anyone could see that this man was the person in charge here.
"Azure Dragon, lead the combat squad to take over the Vermillion Bird's defensive line," Ji Yan ignored everyone and immediately instructed after getting out of the car: "The battle must end before dark; all zombies at the main entrance must be eliminated, and then their crystals collected."
"After dark, zombies will become more bloodthirsty and difficult to deal with, and their combat power will greatly increase; we cannot attract more zombies."
"Yes, sir!"
Azure Dragon responded and turned to issue combat orders!
Three hundred members of the combat squad quickly disembarked to take over the combat mission.
Their firepower was even fiercer, and their marksmanship was even more ruthless.
The zombie horde outside the base naturally suffered another frenzied cleansing.
"Welcome back, Commander!"
Vermillion Bird withdrew from the battle and returned to her duties with the Management Team.
Now that so many survivors had been rescued, she urgently needed to manage their registration.
Ji Yan didn't stand on ceremony with her and directly said: "Immediately arrange personnel to register these survivors, process their identity verification, and all data will be entered by Adam."
"Yes, sir!"
Vermillion Bird agreed and led 50 Management Team soldiers to begin registration.
"Get off the bus, everyone get off and line up!"
"Welcome everyone to A1 Shelter; this will be your future haven of survival."
"If you do not wish to join our Shelter now, you may leave immediately. If you wish to join, please line up to register your identity."
"You, name, age, what skills do you have?"
Under the guidance of Vermillion Bird and others, the survivors disembarked one after another. Everyone formed long lines, waiting to register. Soldiers held tablet computers and began verifying each person's identity.
Before the disaster, Adam had already infiltrated the Kyushu Citizen Information Center.
By simply scanning a survivor's face or entering a name, all their information could be retrieved, so the registration process was very fast!
After confirming the survivor's name, they would be assigned an identity code!
At the same time, a simple physical examination would be conducted with equipment.
Finally, based on their age, skills, education, and family members, they would be divided into multiple tiers, and then a machine would tattoo a QR code identifier on the back of their hand.
With Adam's help, all information entry was very convenient.
Half an hour later, registration was complete!
"Congratulations everyone, after registration, you will automatically become official residents of this Shelter, and will be honored to obtain the right to reside here in the future."
"Remember your identity identifier; all aspects of your life within the base, including food, clothing, housing, and transportation, require you to present your identifier, otherwise you will be listed as an unrecognized intruder."
"This base operates under a quasi-military management model; any harmful targets will be mercilessly shot, and those who violate the rules will be severely punished. We hope you do not provoke the law enforcers."
"Now, line up and enter the base, hurry, hurry!"
Vermillion Bird warned loudly.
Everyone began entering the circular building in the center of the base.
"Where exactly is this place? Can such a small place accommodate so many people?"
Many people muttered in surprise.
But upon entering the first-floor hall of the base and seeing the interior of this massive steel structure, every single person present was completely stunned.
