Chapter 19: Bullet Screen as Eyes, the Most Efficient War!
The third day of the full-scale outbreak of the apocalypse.
The whole world was plunged into chaos and panic.
In the sky, there were those hideous scarlet cracks.
It opened its eyes like a demon, and from time to time poured all sorts of bizarre and terrifying beasts onto the ground.
In the city
The sounds of sirens, gunfire, collapsing buildings, and screams mingled together, creating a symphony of apocalypse.
Despair, like a plague, is spreading across the globe.
Just yesterday, a major city in North America with a population of millions fell completely after its defenses were breached by a horde of beasts in just three hours due to mismanagement.
In the satellite images, the entire city was engulfed in flames.
The once bustling streets have been transformed into a slaughterhouse and a feast for monstrous beasts.
The hellish scene was transmitted in real time to the large screen of the underground command center in Beijing via encrypted lines, putting immense psychological pressure on everyone present.
"How are we doing?"
Looking at the bloody scene, Elder Long asked in a hoarse voice.
An aide immediately stepped forward to report: "Sir! Currently, there are 3 Class A spatial rifts, 12 Class B rifts, and over 300 Class C and below rifts nationwide!"
"Major cities have suffered attacks from alien beasts to varying degrees, and conventional armies are struggling to cope, with casualty figures continuing to rise!"
"Public panic is severe. Although most people have entered shelters, supplies are being consumed at an enormous rate, and the logistical pressure is immense!"
The atmosphere in the command room became heavy again.
Everyone knew that although the Dragon Kingdom had made ample preparations in advance, the intensity of this apocalyptic catastrophe still far exceeded everyone's expectations.
The number of strange beasts was simply endless.
The firearms of regular troops are adequate for dealing with Tier 1 and Tier 2 alien beasts.
However, when encountering elite beasts of the third rank or higher, they are powerless and often have to pay a huge price to eliminate them.
If a more efficient and precise way of dealing with this problem cannot be found, even a powerful nation like China will eventually be worn down and killed.
Just when everyone was at a loss.
A calm voice broke the silence.
"Don't panic!"
Su Chen sat in the newly arranged "Chief Consultant" seat, holding a cup of hot tea, his expression completely calm.
He looked up and glanced at the constantly flashing red warning dots on the big screen.
Then he turned his gaze to the incredibly clear barrage of comments right in front of him.
The arrival of the apocalypse is a disaster for ordinary people, but for those who are reborn, it is the beginning of a carnival.
They were like they were on steroids, jumping around in the live chat, sharing their "victories" and plans.
In Su Chen's eyes, all of these became the most accurate and real-time battlefield radar!
[Haha, that was awesome! I just soloed a Tier 2 Armored Rhino and got a crystal core. I feel like I've gotten stronger again!]
[That newly appeared rift in the western suburbs seems to be spawning a boss! I'm planning to solo it and get the first kill. Anyone want to team up?]
[Attention, brothers in Donghai City! A Tier 3 Deep-Sea Giant Octopus has appeared at the docks, with tons of tentacles. Ordinary troops simply can't handle it. This is the perfect opportunity for us to strike and rack up some merit!]
[Holy crap, "Thor" is insane! He single-handedly wiped out the lair of a second-tier alien beast. I heard he awakened an A-level lightning ability. I'm so envious!]
Su Chen's eyes scanned rapidly through the massive barrage of comments.
The brain, like the most efficient processor, quickly classifies, filters, and distinguishes this chaotic information.
A few seconds later, he put down his teacup and picked up the red communicator on the table.
The entire command center fell silent instantly.
Everyone knew that the "chief advisor" was about to begin "casting a spell".
"Qin Bing".
"Yes!" Qin Bing's clear and crisp voice came through the earpiece.
She is leading the "Ice Phoenix" team in a fierce battle against a giant aquatic beast on the Bund in Shanghai.
"Give up on your current goal; that's just a pretext." Su Chen's tone left no room for argument.
"Take your men immediately to the abandoned chemical plant on the western outskirts of the city."
"There, in ten minutes, a Tier 3 elite beast, the 'Terrorclaw Tyrant,' is expected to appear."
"Meanwhile, the reborn being codenamed 'Thor' is also heading there. His target is the crystal core of that monstrous beast."
Qin Bing was taken aback: "Advisor, what do you mean?"
"Command the space-based kinetic weapon 'Heavenly Punishment' to lock onto these coordinates." Su Chen's voice was as cold as ice: "I'm giving you the highest level of authority, allowing you to hunt freely."
"The target is the crystal core of the alien beast, and that reborn person called 'Thor'."
"Yes!" Qin Bing accepted the order without hesitation.
Su Chen hung up the call and immediately connected to another channel without hesitation.
"East China Sea Fleet, this is Su Chen, chief consultant of Project Fire Seed."
"Hello, consultant!"
"Order your submarine force to immediately proceed to the underwater area of the port and await orders. A Tier 3 Deepsea Giant Octopus is lurking there, and it will be difficult to deal with using conventional methods."
"However, according to intelligence, the core weakness of this beast lies at the junction of the roots of its third and seventh tentacles."
"Use torpedoes to precisely strike these two points."
"receive!"
"And..." Su Chen paused:
"After killing that giant octopus, some reborn individuals who call themselves 'saviors' will come out to snatch the corpse. Take care of them as well."
"clear!"
One instruction after another came out of Su Chen's mouth, clear and swift.
His voice was transmitted to combat units across the country via the highest level of encryption.
"Order the Central Theater Command to immediately dispatch a drone brigade to the Chengdu Basin, coordinates..."
"Order the 'Sharp Sword' special forces of the Northwest Theater Command to abandon the clearing mission and go into hiding. The target is..."
"Notify the Academy of Sciences to immediately send someone to the bottom of Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain. There is a piece of ten-thousand-year-old ice iron there, which is a key material for manufacturing the core cooling system of the next generation of runic armor. A reborn person is preparing to retrieve it..."
Everyone in the command center was stunned.
They watched Su Chen sit there, not looking at the map or the data.
He would only occasionally sip tea, and then issue one precise, outrageously accurate command after another into the communicator.
He was like an all-knowing god, overlooking the entire chessboard.
He knew exactly where the crisis was, where the opportunity was, and where the enemy was moving.
Under his command, the entire Dragon Kingdom machine, this massive and sophisticated war machine, began to operate in an unprecedented and highly efficient manner.
The various units, which were originally exhausted from running around putting out fires, seemed to have suddenly had their meridians opened up.
They always manage to arrive at the most crucial location one step ahead.
They always manage to eliminate the most formidable enemies with minimal cost.
They always seem to have a third eye, seizing the "opportunities" that the reborn have fought tooth and nail to find.
Ten minutes later, in the western part of Shanghai.
"Thor" Zhou Yi stood triumphantly on the roof of an abandoned factory, looking at the slowly expanding spatial rift in the distance, his eyes filled with greed.
"The Terrorclaw Tyrant! In my past life, it was thanks to its crystal core that I broke through from Rank B to Rank A!"
"In this lifetime, I've arrived a full year early! This crystal core is mine alone!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a deafening roar came from the crack.
A terrifying beast, over five meters tall, covered in bone armor, with claws like giant scythes, suddenly charged out!
"They're here!"
Zhou Yi, his body crackling with lightning, was about to rush forward and give this beast a "preemptive strike".
However, at that moment...
A gigantic pillar of light, ten thousand times brighter than the lightning on his body, seemed to descend from the sky.
Silently and precisely, it landed on the head of the newly arrived "Tyrannosaurus Rex".
"boom!!!"
There was no earth-shattering explosion.
There was only deathly silence.
The arrogant third-tier elite beast didn't even have time to utter a scream before it was instantly broken down into the most basic particles from head to toe by that beam of light.
Where it stood, only a bottomless crater remained, along with a purple crystal core that floated in mid-air, radiating an alluring light.
Zhou Yi was completely dumbfounded.
He stared blankly at the crystal core, then looked up at the now calm sky, his mind a complete blank.
"Heaven... Heavenly Punishment? The Dragon Kingdom's space-based weapon!"
"How...how did they know there was a BOSS here?"
Before he could figure it out, a cold voice behind him sent a chill down his spine, making him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
"Don't move!"
Zhou Yi stiffly turned his head and saw Qin Bing, dressed in a black combat uniform and holding a silver sniper rifle.
And behind her, the ten elite team members whose eyes looked at her like she was already dead.
"You...you all..."
"Reborn Thor, you are suspected of endangering the security of the Dragon Kingdom. Now, come with us."
Qin Bing's voice was devoid of any emotion.
"Or, we can give you a ride."
……
Similar scenes are playing out all over the country.
Those reborn individuals who thought they could finally unleash their power, become kings of the mountains, and seize resources after the apocalypse suddenly discovered that the script seemed to be off.
The supermarket they wanted to rob had already been emptied by the army.
The granary they wanted to seize had three heavy machine guns mounted at its entrance.
The opportunity they had finally found was snatched away by a group of special forces soldiers who appeared out of nowhere.
The reason given was "alleged theft of China's strategic resources".
Revolt?
Compared to the elite Dragon Kingdom soldiers equipped with runic armor and psionic weapons, their newly awakened supernatural abilities were like children's toys.
Those who caused the most trouble, like that guy who wanted to organize a Reborn Alliance in Donghai City to fight against the Dragon Kingdom.
The result was that he was shot dead on the spot by Qin Bing's team, and his body was hung on the lighthouse at the dock and displayed for three days.
In an instant, the entire community of reborn individuals was filled with fear and unease, with everyone feeling insecure.
The chat channel was filled with wails of despair.
What the hell is going on here? Has the Dragon Kingdom gained supernatural insight?
I just found a 300-year-old Polygonum multiflorum plant, but before I could even dig it up, a group of soldiers stopped me! They said I was damaging a rare plant!
[Me too! I wanted to use a hydroelectric power station as a base, but they'd already deployed a whole regiment! They've even brought out tanks!]
[It's over, it's all over! This world is completely different from the one we experienced in our past life!]
That "ghost"! It's definitely that mysterious person behind it all! He betrayed us all!
Qin Bing led the Ice Phoenix Squad, and under Su Chen's precise command, they fought battles in the south and north, and traveled east and west.
In just a few days, they cleared dozens of high-risk areas and suppressed more than a dozen reborn groups that attempted to cause trouble, achieving remarkable feats.
But she was increasingly shocked.
Because she discovered that Su Chen's intelligence was so accurate that it was unbelievable.
Once, they surrounded a speed-type ability user, but he was as slippery as an eel, and they almost let him get away several times.
Just then, Su Chen's voice came through the earpiece.
"His next move will be to feign a breakout to the left front, but he actually intends to use the blind spot to escape through the ventilation duct to your right rear."
"His strongest skill is 'Triple Shadow Flash,' which has a 30-second cooldown. He just used it, and there are 10 seconds left."
Following Su Chen's instructions, Qin Bing laid an ambush at the ventilation duct opening in advance.
Ten seconds later, the reborn person indeed crashed into the room.
At that moment, Qin Bing was no longer shocked, but filled with awe.
What kind of person is this man?
