Chapter 896 Punishment and Pride



Monkey charged ahead, and with another swing of his giant sword, he cleaved more than a dozen zombies in two.

It let out an excited roar, swung its blade again, and more than a dozen zombies fell into pools of blood.

Monkey Two still used the giant sword as a fly swatter.

Wherever the blade passed, zombies were swatted away, some were smashed into a pulp, and others had their bones broken and tendons snapped, unable to move after landing.

Monkey Three still preferred to use his fists. Each strike of his enormous fist could flatten the zombies, making them blend into the ground and completely unrecognizable.

The other gorillas were not to be outdone, brandishing their giant claws and wreaking havoc among the horde of corpses.

Wherever they went, corpses littered the ground; not a single zombie could withstand a single blow from them.

When the fighting got heated, they would strike their chests with their huge hands again, letting out a deafening roar filled with pure joy and fervor.

The high-level zombies controlled by the Blood Woman were also going on a killing spree.

M-type zombies go full speed, while T-type zombies rampage wildly.

Wherever they went, corpses littered the ground.

The once chaotic city has now become a veritable slaughterhouse.

Ordinary zombies in the city are as fragile as ants in the face of the seven silverback gorillas and the high-level zombie horde controlled by the Blood Woman, and can only be mercilessly slaughtered.

Black blood soaked every street in the city, corpses piled up like mountains, and the air was filled with a strong stench of blood and decay that made people nauseous.

Meanwhile, the Second Legion of the Huaxia Revival Army finally bypassed the mountains of corpses and seas of blood outside the city and entered the city from the north and south sides.

This echoes the seven silverback gorillas that charged into the city from the east and the zombie army controlled by the Blood Woman.

Like a trident, it precisely pierced this once heavily industrial city with a population of one million.

More than 6,000 soldiers from the 1st and 2nd Regiments of the 1st Brigade of the 2nd Army Corps entered the city from the industrial area on the north side.

This area was once a cluster of steel mills, chemical plants, and machinery manufacturing plants.

Everywhere you look, there are tall factory buildings, towering chimneys, and crisscrossing pipes.

The buildings are relatively sparse, but their structures are complex and the view is limited.

Looking at the surrounding environment, Brigade Commander Wang He said with some relief, "Fortunately, there aren't many mutated plants here, and the original buildings have been basically preserved."

Dai Chenglin, who was following beside him, said with a smile, "Brigade Commander, you have a lot of influence to be assigned here. After all, the most important part of this city is the industrial zone here."

Wang He gave Dai Chenglin a meaningful look and casually said, "Old Dai, what's your relationship with Deputy Minister Liu of the Logistics Department? She seems to treat you quite well."

Dai Chenglin was taken aback, then chuckled and said, "Brigade Commander, you must be joking. If Vice Minister Liu had treated me well, would I still only have the rank of a lowly battalion commander? This is only because of my status as an evolved being, and I have absolutely no real power under my command."

Wang He chuckled and said, "How long have you been a member? You're not satisfied with just being a battalion commander? We've all been with Blood Maiden's faction for over a year. Even if you're just a company commander, you're a veteran who's been there for at least a year!"

He then said meaningfully, "Old Dai, here's a piece of advice: if you're familiar with Vice Minister Liu, make the most of it. Vice Minister Liu has served Madam Mi for over a year and is one of her absolute confidants."

Dai Chenglin was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help but ask, "Brigade Commander, there's something I'm not sure if I should ask?"

Wang He casually said, "Go ahead and ask. What's there to be embarrassed about?"

Dai Chenglin glanced around cautiously and whispered, "Brigade Commander, Vice Minister Liu only served Madam Mi for a year, and everyone says Madam Mi doesn't care about things here. She herself went to Fuxing City a long time ago. Why did Vice Minister Liu get promoted so quickly? Is there some secret to it?"

Wang He looked at Dai Chenglin and sighed, "You have too low an awareness and think too simply."

"Although Madam Mi is currently in Fuxing City and doesn't concern herself with these trivial matters, the higher-ups will definitely give her face."

"After all, Madam Mi is the wife personally acknowledged by the leader, and she has also gained the approval of Lady Blood Maiden."

"In our Second Revival City, the only ladies who have truly gained the leader's approval are Lady Blood, Lady Ye, and Lady Mi."

"The Blood Maiden holds a transcendent position. Madam Ye is only concerned with research and has always been in the research institute."

"Only Madam Mi is from our Second Revival City, and now she's gone to the main city to serve the chief..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wang He abruptly stopped, standing there awkwardly, somewhat apprehensive.

Chen Yin walked over from a short distance away.

Chen Yin glanced at Wang He and said calmly, "As a high-ranking military officer, discussing your wife in private and causing unnecessary suspicion is punishable by a three-month salary deduction and a 20-fold slap on the face."

At this moment, Wang He completely abandoned his airs as a brigade commander and quickly nodded, "Thank you, sir!"

After saying that, he immediately slapped himself in the face.

Dai Chenglin, standing to the side, swallowed hard, barely daring to breathe.

He was terrified, not knowing what punishment he would receive.

After Wang He slapped himself 20 times, Chen Yin said calmly, "Don't just stand there. There's a horde of over 100,000 zombies heading this way. Go to the south and set up a blockade. Don't let them enter this industrial area and cause trouble."

Wang He quickly and respectfully replied, "Yes!"

He then immediately gave orders over the radio: "First Regiment and First Battalion of Second Regiment, follow me! Second Battalion and Third Battalion of Second Regiment, mop up the industrial zone!"

Seeing that Chen Yin gave no further instructions and instead headed towards the industrial park, Wang He breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Dai Chenglin still standing there dumbfounded, Wang He suddenly slapped him on the shoulder and said irritably, "Let's go! Damn it, you've ruined my life!"

Dai Chenglin said with a mournful face, "Brigade Commander, am I doomed? You've been punished, I'm going to be punished to death."

Wang He's lips twitched, and he said irritably, "Are you stupid? The higher-ups have already said that I was punished because I'm a high-ranking military officer and spoke ill of the wife. You're just a lowly battalion-level officer with no real power, and you expect the higher-ups to punish you personally? What are you thinking?"

Wang He said these words with a hint of pride.

It seemed that being punished by Chen Yin was a very glorious thing.

Upon reflection, Dai Chenglin realized that this was indeed the case!

The next second, he forced a smile, "Brigade Commander, thank you for the pointer! I was almost scared to death just now, Minister Chen's intimidating presence is really too strong."

Wang He was also still shaken.

However, upon hearing the title "Minister Chen," he whispered a reminder: "You kid, don't think that Minister Chen is just the head of the intelligence department. She is also one of Lady Blood Maiden's absolute confidantes, the other being Lady Zi Ling. Moreover, Lady Chen is most likely also the leader's wife, it's just not public."

Dai Chenglin swallowed hard.

No wonder the brigade commander wasn't upset about being punished; instead, he looked proud.

So that person's status is so high!

It was the leader's wife!
