I'm bombarding the Supernatural World with my firearms

Chapter 164: "Plum Blossoms?



In an effort to mend his relationship with Chen Miao, he had done quite a few things for Chen Miao over the past few days, but this was his first time standing in front of Chen Miao, and despite his attempt to appear serious, his legs still trembled slightly.

The shadow that Chen Miao had left on him at the noodle shop last time was too overwhelming.

"This is a manually triggered major event that can only be activated after someone completes an entire task chain. Once it's activated, as long as seven days pass, the initiator of this fixed event will receive a substantial reward."

"I'm not sure what the reward is this time."

"But the reward for the first time, that is, when this fixed event first appeared, the initiator chose to resurrect his girlfriend. However, he later discovered that the girlfriend, although resurrected, was not his real girlfriend, but a clone."

"Not long after, the final link in the task chain arrived."

"The task was to personally kill his own girlfriend; otherwise, this Sea of Zombies would cover the entire world, not just a single city. It's a world-ending task chain, and in the end, he chose to kill his own girlfriend, who was also his wife."

"Within seven days, no matter how the outside world tries to rescue, this Sea of Zombies will not be called off; there are simply too many zombies to kill."

"The only person who can put an end to this disaster ahead of time is the one who finds the initiator of the task and kills him before the seven days are up. If that person dies, this fixed event will also come to an end."

"The person who initiates the task will have a distinctive feature, a plum blossom tattoo on the back of the hand."

"Plum blossom?"

Chen Miao frowned slightly and after pondering for a moment, he nodded to show he understood. He then glanced at Ke Gou beside him, patted Chi Qiu on the shoulder without saying much more, and directed Hungry Monkey and the others to stay put while he prepared to enter the sea of corpses alone.

"Tell the mayor what I just said. He has ways to spread the message through Broken Pot City's broadcast channels. That way, it'll be quicker to find the person."

...

Afterward, Chen Miao strode towards the edge of the hill.

During the firefight just now, he had a nagging feeling that something was amiss, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. Regardless of how many zombies he killed, there were always more to fill the gaps, and he could not see how the zombies managed to do so, as if they were surging out of nowhere.

If a large area could be cleared instantly,

could he see how the zombies emerged?

He stood calmly in place with his Thompson Submachine Gun, gazing at the sea of zombies charging toward Broken Pot City not far away, took a deep breath, and pulled the trigger.

The next second—

20,000 bullets propelled by the skill flew out of the gun barrel and converged into a massive missile in mid-air, crashing heavily into the sea of zombies. Before this missile even landed,

the second missile was already in place.

"Boom!!!"

Accompanied by the first deafening explosion, a continuous barrage of explosions began to resound, each missile unleashing immense destructive power, obliterating everything in front of it.

In front of the Chen-Miao-brand missiles, these zombies seemed as fragile as papier-mâché, shattering on contact.

With missiles launching every second, he was diligently scouring clean the world for Broken Pot City's suburbs.

In the midst of these incessant explosions, a small area of the sea of corpses was instantly cleared, and Chen Miao finally realized what was wrong. Your next read is at empire

He saw where the zombies were surging from.

At the moment the sea of corpses cleared, the zombies once again flooded the entire gap, as if endless, but this time he saw clearly, the zombies were massively emerging from a patch of open ground, meaning that spot was the zombies' spawn point.

Perhaps occupying that position would mean blocking the zombies' respawn point.

"..."

After a moment of hesitation, Chen Miao turned and walked down the sandy slope, heading towards the spot he had observed. The zombies were merely numerous in quantity but average in strength; as long as he was careful, they couldn't get close to him.

He didn't need to worry about running out of bullets.

His firepower could blast a path all the way.

...

After Chen Miao left, Chi Qiu immediately found the highest commander of the operation, the Mayor of Fengtian City, and relayed to him everything that should have been said to Chen Miao.

"..."

The mayor gave the Chi Family child a poignant look. He didn't ask how the child came to know such deep-level intel, information not even he was privy to. It seemed that only the initiators or those who had initiated such tasks before knew this intel.

This fixed event had appeared twice historically, and each time it had almost obliterated a city.

But still, he slowly shook his head: "This message cannot be leaked."

"Why not?"

Chi Qiu was a bit baffled as he looked towards the reporters not far away, "If we tell the television station, they should be able to spread the message quickly throughout Broken Pot City, right? This time the fixed event doesn't restrict people inside from contacting the outside; it's just that outsiders can't enter."

"If we just wait for seven days, Broken Pot City will be annihilated."

"The impact is too great, isn't it?"

"The federation can't afford it. It's been a long time since a main city was annihilated."

"No."

The mayor shook his head, "If this message is leaked, Broken Pot City will instead be annihilated, but if we keep the message to ourselves, there's a not-so-small chance of surviving the ordeal."

"What kind of people are there the most in Broken Pot City?"

"Desperados."

"A large number of desperados have fled to this city and settled down. Anyone who has the qualifications to escape and makes it to Broken Pot City is likely to be an experienced Supernatural, and having been in combat situations for an extended period, they won't lack combat experience."

"This city has a higher number of desperados than any other city."

"Even the ordinary people, who have to deal with desperados on a regular basis to do business, have a higher vigilance than the average citizen. Even if they're not Supernaturals, they're always armed."

"This is a city of tens of millions of people. Even if there are many zombies, but their strength isn't enough, they can't annihilate the city. The people inside don't need to band together; as long as they fight on their own, if they can kill, they kill; if they can't, they hide."

"After seven days, at least eight or nine million people will survive."

"But once this message is out, do you know what will happen?"

The mayor raised his hand, pointing towards Broken Pot City in the distance, "Everyone in this city will start looking for the person with the plum blossom tattoo on the back of their hand, and their attention will mostly be on this matter."

"They will stop thinking about holding on and instead focus on ending it early."
