Chapter 144: The Beginning of the Multiverse Conquest!
Inside the RL1556 Area No.0001 Stargate Base.
Two thousand Army Soldiers pushed their Motorcycles, lining up in a long queue to enter the Bio-Safety Station for a complete disinfection procedure before crossing the Star Gate into the New World on the other side. There, guided by Government Officials, they would head to the designated open ground to reassemble.
From the current perspective, the entire process would still take over two hours.
To be honest, just as Im had thought, the width and Height of this Small Star Gate severely affected the World Government's Efficiency.
But there was no alternative; they could only try their best to overcome it for now.
Bullet, wearing his Black Justice Coat, was the first to pass through disinfection and arrive at the Base on the other side of the Star Gate. He then began to gather basic Intelligence about this World.
Afterward, he went outside the Prison Cell and looked at the Living Kabane locked inside.
"You're saying this thing can easily dent Steel Plates?"
"Yes."
The Government Official who had previously led Lucci and the other CP9 Members and explained the Mission nodded. His Name was Addison, a Senior Director in the Administrative Department, and a Colleague of Coulson.
"However, it's not exactly 'easy'. According to tests, the Kabane that people from this World turn into, while capable of denting Steel Plates several centimeters thick, also suffer significant damage themselves from using excessive Strength. Only the Kabane that people from our World turn into can be considered truly 'easy'."
Having understood this Situation, Bullet could already imagine the scene of these Kabane running wildly, then jumping and pouncing. The Strength generated would definitely be enough to suppress his subordinate Army Soldiers.
He immediately voiced this point, but unexpectedly, the other party's reply was somewhat surprising.
"Army Lieutenant General Bullet, these Kabane don't seem to like jumping very much, unless they've climbed to a high place and their target is below. Although with their explosive power, they can indeed jump quite high."
"If that's the case, then they're easier to deal with."
At this moment, Bullet was greatly enjoying this life of being a General again. He was a man born in War, raised in War, and although he had also been betrayed by War, he was still passionate about War, because in his view, those betrayals were also part of War.
Not to mention, now he was coming to Another World to wage War against opponents from Another World!
This was even more exhilarating!
"However, you need to pay attention to one point: an Automatic Rifle must hit the same spot on a Kabane's Heart twice consecutively to completely pierce their Heart. Alternatively, cutting off their Head can also stop them from continuing to move," Senior Director Addison said softly.
Bullet, who was much taller than the former, gave him a cold glance.
"If it's just about stopping their activity, I think we can just use Guns to break their ankles and calves. We can deal with them one by one afterwards!"
"Moreover, in the paper Data/Files you showed me before, it seemed to mention that their Heart Membrane is a very good reinforcement Materials."
"Since that's the case, wouldn't it be better to capture them alive and extract the intact Heart Membrane?"
At the same time, there was something he kept to himself: this method would also maximize the long-range advantage of Firearms and ensure the Soldiers' Safety.
The only requirement was that the Soldiers' marksmanship had to be accurate enough!
This could be trained completely. All Sharpshooters were produced by feeding them Bullets. Now, these Kabane were the best Combat Targets.
As for Bullets, would the World Government ever lack Bullets for them?
That's right, in Bullet's view, this Operation was less of a War and more of a large-scale Combat Training.
He believed that after these two thousand Army Soldiers engaged with these terrifying Living Dead, they would quickly grow into determined veterans. Then, they could switch to another group of Troops...
"Oh right, I heard that kid Crocodile came here too?"
Bullet was clearly annoyed by this point. He had joined the Army first and was a proper Army Lieutenant General, yet he lagged behind a criminal bastard in stepping into this place.
"What are those guys, the Five Elders, thinking? If they want to recruit Crocodile, just bring him before me! I have my own way to make him completely obedient and honestly be my subordinate!"
Councilor Addison, standing to the side, heard Bullet's disrespect towards the Five Elders and immediately his mouth twitched. With an awkward Expression, he looked around, pretending he hadn't heard anything.
"Report, Lieutenant General! The Troops are all assembled! Please give instructions!" At this moment, an Army Colonel, also wearing a Black Justice Coat and a Black Suit, ran over and shouted loudly.
Actually, the Army didn't have Coats of Justice before, but ever since Bullet joined, all Treatment had been brought in line with the Marines.
However, the Strength of this Army Headquarters Colonel was difficult to compare with a Marine Headquarters Colonel; they were only comparable to a Marine Colonel from a Four Blues Branch.
There was nothing that could be done about this. The Army had just started out and had been stagnant for too long before.
"Tell them to warm up the Motorcycles. We'll depart soon."
"Understood!"
After the Army Colonel left, Senior Director Addison raised his head doubtfully and asked, "Army Lieutenant General Bullet, are you heading to that Fallen City immediately?"
"But it's night now, and the Order given to you was to depart tomorrow morning."
"Humph, the people are already here, what are we waiting for tomorrow? If my subordinate Soldiers can't even manage a Night March, then they might as well be stomped to death by me directly, saving me the embarrassment!"
Bullet let out a heavy cold snort, turned and left the prison cell area, leaving a final sentence behind.
"I am the Army Lieutenant General! Since I'm here, all Military Operations here must be under my command!"
"..."
Senior Director Addison helplessly watched his figure disappear from sight, feeling that this person was a bit too Haki and too forceful.
Couldn't they discuss things?
Previously, the Army Officers wouldn't dare to be so arrogant and rude in front of him, a High-Ranking Official. But now, it was him who didn't dare to say much.
"Sigh, it seems this Army is really going to rise. But looking at the journey, even riding Motorcycles, it will be almost dawn by the time they get there, right? Why bother..."
Twenty minutes later, although the sky was already dark, the Bright Moon hung high in the night sky, and Starlight spread across the Milky Way, the Star Gate Base was still brightly lit.
"Open the Gate!"
With a loud shout, the electric Steel Gate 'hurriedly' opened wide, as if afraid of being a step too slow and being blown up by the fierce person riding a specially made large motorcycle.
[Rumble, Rumble, Rumble]
For a moment, this large Base located in the Peninsula Center was completely woken up by bursts of rapid and dense motorcycle sounds. Many people who were resting in the Barracks Dormitory cursed loudly towards the direction of the Gate in annoyance.
But Bullet didn't care about this. He rushed out of the Gate first, driving quickly towards the dark north. Behind him, large groups of Heavy Motorcycle Soldiers maintained a certain distance from each other, forming a long line and continuously pouring out of the Base.
At this moment.
The World Government's Army Unit officially stepped onto the path to conquering this World. Their first Mission: clear out all the Kabane in a Fallen City!
Their number might be tens of thousands, perhaps over a hundred thousand.
But what does that matter?
