Gu Lingxiao remembered that Hua Zhiyuan had promised him that he could make requests, and asking for some crystals wouldn't be too much to ask for. Not to mention super-powered crystals from evolved creatures, zombie crystals would also be acceptable.
Gu Lingxiao quickly found Hua Zhiyuan and immediately asked for 100,000, which really startled Hua Zhiyuan.
The entire military warehouse didn't even have 100,000 in stock, so where was he supposed to get them?
We really don't have that many.
"How much can you give me?" Gu Lingxiao asked.
After a brief pause, Hua Zhiyuan said, "How about this, we still have 50,000 zombie crystals, how about you take them all? We need to keep the crystals of evolved creatures for future use."
Gu Lingxiao nodded. Fifty thousand was already an unexpected amount. He had only hoped to get one or two thousand. Fifty thousand was indeed an unexpected amount. As for asking for one hundred thousand, it was just that he needed about that much to break through to the fourth stage.
Gu Lingxiao then left with a large box on his back; as for the Barrett S-11, he had already taken it back.
Watching Gu Lingxiao disappear, Zhong Jiahao said, "Is it a bit much to just give the general whatever he wants?"
“The information he brought is worth far more than 50,000 crystals, not to mention that I had promised him I could make demands,” Hua Zhiyuan interrupted Zhong Jiahao.
"Besides, we have plenty of ammunition for ordinary zombie crystals, which we can obtain at will."
Gu Lingxiao didn't go far. He found a safe place to absorb all the crystals, checked his breakthrough progress, and felt that he was still 30,000 to 40,000 points short.
Gu Lingxiao plans to break through to the fourth stage directly, and then spend his time hunting various evolved creatures and zombies.
Five days later, Gu Lingxiao, with bloodshot eyes, crawled out of the zombie horde. He tore off his tattered shirt, revealing his well-built, muscular upper body, which was as perfect as a work of art.
"Clothing is a problem; I can't be naked every time I fight." He has changed his clothes countless times in the past few days.
The key is that sometimes when you're killing someone, you forget to use teleportation and just want to punch them hard, and when you're violently punching someone, you can shatter their clothes.
Once the murderous intent and excitement in his heart subsided, Gu Lingxiao's eyes slowly returned to normal, and he let out a long breath.
"Let's break through once we've crystallized enough."
Breakthrough was no challenge for Gu Lingxiao. At the fourth stage, Gu Lingxiao was several times stronger, able to teleport thousands of meters, and his rapid regeneration meant that even if his head was lost, it could quickly grow back.
To Gu Lingxiao's surprise, the dark elements could cover his body, turning him into a pure black outfit. Unfortunately, it still attacked indiscriminately, targeting only himself, and he couldn't control the damage.
If you wear clothes and cover them with dark elements, the clothes will be instantly corroded.
His physical fitness improved again, and Gu Lingxiao was able to jump over a thousand meters in just a few months.
He clenched his fist, felt the abundant energy within his body, and smashed a large chunk of reinforced concrete with a single punch.
It was very strong; he even wanted to go and fight that giant alien, but he suppressed the thought, because it wasn't the right time yet.
After washing the zombie blood off his body, Gu Lingxiao prepared to go to the military survivor base.
But just then, a loud bang came from afar, and a plume of black smoke shot into the sky, which then transformed into an enormous phantom.
The phantom looked somewhat familiar. "A giant alien?"
Gu Lingxiao was somewhat surprised. What had happened? The phantom was slowly solidifying. For some reason, looking at the phantom, Gu Lingxiao felt a sense of fear from the bottom of his heart, and his body lowered its head uncontrollably.
But at that moment, streaks of meteors rushed toward the phantom.
In the dim light, the afterimage of the meteor exploded violently upon contact with it.
That wasn't a meteor at all, but a missile. The military had launched a missile. Not only did Gu Lingxiao feel a sense of fear, but the military personnel who saw it were even more terrified and immediately ordered them to open fire.
An unnamed rage ignited in Gu Lingxiao's heart: "Who do you think you are, to make me afraid to look you in the eye?"
Gu Lingxiao's neck veins bulged, his anger shattering his fear. He raised his head and stared intently at the alien. Despite being bombarded by missiles, the alien seemed to sense that someone dared to challenge its authority, and its phantom gaze came over.
Instantly, Gu Lingxiao began to mutate, and Gu Lingxiao was not to be outdone. The black elements transformed into sharp long blades and cut off the mutated parts.
But Gu Lingxiao's gaze never wavered. As time passed, with a bang, his eyes exploded, and bright red blood slid down from the corners of his eyes.
Nevertheless, Gu Lingxiao used Rapid Regeneration to restore his eyesight, repeating this process until a mushroom cloud rose.
The military actually used a low-yield hydrogen bomb. Gu Lingxiao was already quite close to the alien when it exploded, and the blinding white light illuminated the dim yellow sky.
Gu Lingxiao was also blown away by the shockwave.
Some military personnel, perhaps out of fear of an invincible monster appearing, or perhaps out of anger like Gu Lingxiao, fired a mushroom bomb.
The hydrogen bomb exploded along with a roar, the anger contained within of which could be felt by anyone who heard it.
In a room at the military survivor base, a dozen people stared intently at the satellite surveillance footage, waiting for the smoke and dust to dissipate. The room was eerily quiet, not even a breath could be heard.
After what seemed like an eternity, I was finally able to see some blurry images.
Centered on the experimental building, the area within a three-kilometer radius had become the outline of a large crater, with smoke and dust filling the bottom, making it impossible to see anything.
"He should be dead, right?"
A voice broke the silence.
"How many FP-10 missiles do you have left?"
This time, the authorities are not hiding anything. While internal strife may exist among those below, those at the top will absolutely not allow any third-party threats to exist.
“Thirteen, three of which are equipped with high-intensity warheads,” said a man of similar age to Hua Zhiyuan.
"Launch an Fp-10 missile equipped with a high-intensity incendiary warhead and burn it for several days and nights," Hua Zhiyuan said.
"Now?" For this general who had experienced several wars and had never suffered a defeat, listening to him was much better than giving orders haphazardly on one's own.
"We'll launch a few more missiles to bomb first, then you can launch yours at 1 a.m."
No one objected, and the order was quickly relayed.
"Have all the people we sent to investigate returned?" Hua Zhiyuan asked again.
"General, two soldiers have not responded."
"We have some fools here who think something good is about to be born inside. We notified them, but they didn't come back. There are six people who didn't respond at all," the official leader said.
Since the alien began to make unusual movements, both sides have sent messages to urge them to return, and there have been no major personnel losses.
However, there is a corner of the survivor base where the phantom can be seen. Just seeing it causes a distortion, and there are at least a dozen people, including one evolved being.
This is why they immediately ordered an attack; what would happen if he solidified?
