Resurrection Empire

Chapter 790 296 Time Waits for No One [4400 words, thanks to Alliance Hierarch Song Dong Lin Ying!]_3

The levels of these Death Soldiers range from Third Level to Second Level. They are insignificant in the face of the well-trained Starfire Army but have no trouble dealing with even weaker Scavengers.

A minute later, bad news came from outside. Among the Scavengers was a sharpshooter with amazing marksmanship, absurdly powerful weapons, and ruthless determination.

This person seemed to be highly familiar with the security equipment in the manor, often destroying those hidden automated weapons with tracking bombs before he even got close.

Under his leadership, the slave Death Soldiers lasted less than a minute before over forty were killed, and more than a dozen surrendered their weapons and capitulated.

Wu Ren gritted his teeth, first directly detonating the bombs within the Death Soldiers, then looked at a man covered in black armor behind him, "Take the Black Armored Team and block the rest; you must hold them for three minutes."

The man in black made no reply but instead proceeded to walk briskly outside with a clack-clack sound.

Wu Ren looked at his command system through the Wrist watch.

There, in the system, was a military force called the Black Armored Team, with a total of ten members.

These ten people are all balanced Fourth Level Mechanical Warriors, Death Soldiers he had trained from a young age.

To enhance their combat skills, he even brought in real instructors from the Professional College to give them systematic training.

Just as the captain of the Black Armored Team left, Wu Ren looked at the strategist beside him.

"Let's go, board the Airship, prepare to head to Chongyi County. Safety first."

The strategist replied helplessly, "Boss, you're running away, and it will automatically be deemed as a defeat. Not everyone is dead yet."

Wu Ren shrugged, "What else can I do?"

Two minutes later, the escape Airship that had just taken off from the opened rockery had its engine shot through and began to plummet.

Almost simultaneously, the Black Armored Team was completely annihilated.

This time Ren Zhong did not play the role of the main attacker; the one who continuously executed these Fourth Level Mechanical Warriors with precise shots was Ding Canghai.

After the Airship fell, Ren Zhong used the blast bombs from a distance, firing shot by shot, to systematically dismantle the weapons on the Airship according to the modified design plans.

Then, Ren Zhong looked at the five West Lake Town scavengers beside him.

These five, both young and old, had reddened eyes and gritted teeth.

The Scavenger Suicide Squad comprised sixty-three people in total, with forty-one left.

Twenty-two perished, most dying when Wu Ren detonated the captured Death Soldiers' internal bombs.

At this moment, these five had already driven the other thirty-six outside, leaving just themselves inside.

"He's already declared surrender; I can't make a move against him. As for the rest, I know nothing," Ren Zhong said.

A middle-aged man with a full beard exclaimed joyfully, "Then the battle at the South City Gate..."

Ren Zhong: "It's already over. So even if you don't kill him, it won't really make a difference."

The middle-aged man shook his head, "Thank you, sir, but he must die. This is a golden opportunity I won't miss."

Ren Zhong: "What do you mean?"

"Now, it's not just about personal revenge. The whole Source Star is watching this war, seeing everything that happens here. If we kill him, we can let everyone on Source Star know that no matter who it is, they will pay a price for torturing scavengers so cruelly! We can make other Citizens afraid! Let them know that scavengers are human too! By killing him, we save not just the people of West Lake Town but can also save countless others in other towns! Of course, we will die, but that doesn't matter at all."

Ren Zhong was stunned for a long while.

His emotions led him to instinctively ponder how to save this middle-aged man.

But the man had already turned around abruptly, rushing towards Wu Ren's Airship.

Before retreating, Ren Zhong glanced once more at the backs of the five people.

...

On the afternoon of the 157th day of the Ren Zhong Era, following the capture of the last town in West Lake County by Ren Zhong, the sensational corporate war was declared over after just eight days.

This outcome was beyond everyone's expectations except Ren Zhong.

The Tanggu Group originally planned for this trial to last half a year.

Ying Hao hoped that the battle in Yangsheng City would last at least two to three months.

Those under Ren Zhong believed it would need at least a month to a month and a half.

At this point, the Chongyi Wang family had not yet fully emerged from the brink of bankruptcy. The Mengdu Group's attempts to exploit the chaos, weaken, or even kill Ren Zhong, as well as to acquire more samples, had just experienced one minor failure and one success.

The pace of the war sped up like it was fast-forwarded.

Ren Zhong executed blitzkrieg and psychological warfare tactics to the extreme.

This was completely different from past corporate wars.

In past corporate wars, economic warfare often took precedence.

The stronger side would continuously shrink the resource space of the weaker, making them realize that continuing to run a business was not worthwhile, and eventually, they would obediently hand over the company.

Ren Zhong, however, fully committed, first exterminating Liu Wanxiong and Wu Ren.

Surprisingly, even after killing Fourth Level Citizens, he remained unscathed, using the rules in such a crafty way, it was simply insane.

Everyone was shocked by the combat power of Ren Zhong's army and his ruthless tactics, so much so that many resource recovery companies in towns near Yangsheng City treated the situation like facing a formidable enemy, only worried that they would end up the same if a global corporate war broke out.

Yet the victor, Ren Zhong, was in his office in Starfire Town, rubbing his temples, deeply troubled.

He once again fell into confusion.

He realized that resurrecting had drawbacks.

Namely, he always faced two choices at once, each with its advantages and drawbacks, making it difficult to decide.

Logic told him that staying alive might still allow him to address Sun Ai's three requests.

But emotions kept reminding him that twenty years could pass in a blink, and every day wasted was a day less. Time waited for no one; it was time to end it.
