Chapter 54: Start of a chaotic battle
Chapter 54: Start of a chaotic battle
In the main hall of Red Ocean Company, soldiers in uniform lined up. Their black barrels were hanging low but the suppression given by the weapons made it hard for everyone there to breathe.
Li Shujun raised his head, maybe that could allow him to continue to persist.
“CEO Li, I said what I should say, you have also considered for a while so what do you think?”
Captain Ye who was in uniform squinted his eyes and looked at this Red Ocean Company CEO.
Within a day, Captain Ye was filled with emotions towards this new bloodied world. He hated the person who turned Earth like this.
At the same time, he was impressed with the gachapon and was also respectful of the luck of some people.
For example this CEO Li.
A gachapon appeared right in the Red Ocean Company building so the people here knew that it existed and how to use it.
Moreover, Red Ocean Company was in charge of logistics, it did things like construction, moving, bridge building etc. When the apocalypse started, they were celebrating their 8th anniversary so the workers and families were all gathered in the building, waiting to take a bus to the celebration.
Apart from a minority of admin workers, the rest were strong teens so the chance of them turning into zombies was low. After the initial chaos, they fought back and very quickly, they cleared the building of zombies and also obtained many crystals.
Li Shujun who built up the company had huge respect for everyone. After killing his lover and son who turned, he rebuilt his image as the leader.
When they learned how to spin the gachapon and he even obtained a one star potion on his first try, this survivor squad which had no burdens and was united started to form.
People who could start with nothing and build a construction company in this city, their personalities and way of doing things weren’t something that others could compare to. After finding out the secrets of the gachapon, he didn’t relax. Within the 24 hours of the apocalypse, he gathered his hundred men to clear out zombies around to obtain large amounts of demon crystals.
Although they lacked experience which caused many accidents, many people got scratched or bitten. 50-60 of them were left but in exchange they gained a thousand level one crystal which gave them two one star potions and over twenty weapons.
He selected his strongest men to get the potions. In his team now were three one star evolved and 11 guns!
This strength made their ambitions swell and they started to expand further until they bumped into Captain Ye.
“If I don’t agree then would my brothers and I say goodbye to this world?”
Li Shujun’s voice was hoarse and his eyes were filled with unwillingness.
Right, he was filled with hate. If he didn’t bump into these soldiers, then with how his team was advancing, in a while he might become the strongest team in the city. When the time comes, he would get anything that he wanted and his life would be much better than during peacetime.
He realised that this was a time when strength was more respected. Tsk, Li Shujun always felt that he was strong!
Unfortunately… He bumped into the forces that were set up in the city.
Even if he was unwilling, he had to admit that they were soldiers. Even if the world was in chaos, they were still stronger.
That was normal, they had the advantage that normal people couldn’t compete with. They had discipline and listened to orders. They had a perfect command system and highly efficient logistics. They were professional soldiers and their body conditions were perfect so the chances of mutating were low. More importantly, they had weapons, very advanced weapons. After finding out the weakness of the zombies, they could face zombies multiple times their number.
As expected, they were the group of people that got stronger first in the apocalypse.
Looking at these soldiers, there were five or six of them who were evolved. One of them included a short but muscular soldier. Li Shujun felt like his aura was so minute in front of even him.
He guessed that this soldier might have reached two star?
“Although this is not a battle between countries but it is still war! In war, everyone needs to cooperate with the country. That is the duty of every citizen. That includes you and everyone here!”
Captain Ye swept the hall, he didn’t care about the expressions of the others and said, “Moreover, you all won’t be doing things for nothing, after the battle, you will receive your rewards. I can promise that. Even if you don’t trust me, you should trust my uniform!”
After saying that, he looked back at Li Shujun, “CEO Li, if you want me to reply to your question, I can answer it outright.”
“Right, if you don’t join us then sorry, we won’t allow any accidents to occur. If we notice any, we will wipe them out!”
His words were like a firm oath that reverberated through the hall. No one could say anything, no one dared to say anything!
“Maybe after this operation, you can become as strong as us so why not?”
That young soldier that gave Li Shujun huge pressure suddenly spoke and revealed his snow white teeth.
“Hello, my name is Wang Ding.” The soldier reached out, “Let’s get close.”
Li Shujun looked at Captain Ye and slowly reached out.

“Is there anything special about this place?”
Liang Chuyin assembled other advanced binoculars while asking Ye Zhongming who was trying to recover some mental energy.
“Angle is good, we can see many things from here.”
“What do you want to see?” Teacher Park sensed that Ye Zhongming and Liang Chuyin had started to accept her so her attitude became more casual. She wasn’t as timid as before.
Ye Zhongming glanced at a street and at the man-made lake over there.
“A monster will appear there, it is really special and everyone wants to fight for it.”
