"Bah! The air in this world is too turbid!"
After spitting on the ground, Sergeant Hannah Hoffman of the Hughes Empire's Immortal Army complained to her companions: "Can this desolate world really bring any value to the empire? If it's just for population, I don't think these scrawny guys can return to the workforce anytime soon."
Looking at the thin and stinking residents around him with pity, Sergeant Hannah involuntarily raised his hand and tightened the tattered hood on his head to block the sun, so as not to be spotted by the guards at a high place.
Unlike many of her comrades who came from a poor background, she could have enjoyed the luxurious life of a daughter in her hometown with a superior family background. However, as the iron hoof of the Hughes Empire swept across the continent, Sergeant Hannah, who did not intend to become a victim of family marriage, harbored a deep love for His Majesty the Emperor. Incomparable Admiration joined the army, and with his extraordinary talent, he passed through the ranks until he became a member of the Immortal Army.
As one of the many infiltration teams that have sneaked into this desolate world, they have only one mission, which is to collect intelligence for the empire's army that may arrive at any time, and use blood and loyalty to remove the enemy's informants and agents planted in the shadows.
"By the way, sir, what is the code name given to this world by the superiors?"
Glancing at the shirtless soldiers who were looking down at everyone on the edge of the towering cliff, Sergeant Hannah poked the man in front of him on the lower back with his finger, and there was a rare hint of shyness in his tone.
"Just call me by my name Erwin when you go out on infiltration missions." After feeling the pressure from his waist, Second Lieutenant Erwin voluntarily gave up his vacation and led the team again and replied helplessly: "The code name is' Mad Max'."
Listening to the feeble but never-ending voice of begging from the crowd, Erwin sighed: "Although I don't know who Max is, this world is indeed crazy."
...
In this land where life is gradually withering away, few people know how long it has been since "Immortal Joe" took over the precious underground water source here. Only some old people whose bodies are covered with sores and pustules due to long-term water shortage still occasionally I will talk about that unbearable past with my descendants.
Immortal Joe's real name is Joe Moore. Before he established his own private armed force, the "war boys," he was a decorated army colonel. He led the army for the Australian government before human civilization and order disappeared. Countless riots and warlord forces were suppressed.
Unfortunately, with the complete depletion of oil and water resources, countries around the world will eventually inevitably go to war, even using nuclear weapons to cover every piece of land suitable for human recuperation with deadly radiation dust.
Faced with this horrific nuclear war that could be called world-ending, Joe Moore did not sit still and wait for death. Instead, he hid in the Australian outback with hundreds of his loyal men to avoid being blown to ashes by tactical nuclear bombs.
After that, Colonel Moore miraculously found an underground water source of immeasurable value in the desolate Gobi and desert, and based on this, he established the "Fighter", a brutal motorcycle with the V8 engine as its belief. Legion.
According to the investigation of the Changsheng Army team, under the rule of Immortal Qiao, in addition to the Zhanlang Fortress as the core base, there are also two small towns that provide fuel and ammunition for Zhanlang's armed forces.
Their names are also very straightforward, "Gas Town" with several old oil wells and "Bullet Farm" based on lead mines.
Compared with other human forces in the world that are still lingering in the apocalyptic wasteland, the warriors under Immortal Joe have developed quite well with the supplies and military weapons they have hoarded, especially the continuous underground vein of clean water. Make them more powerful when fighting against hostile forces.
After all, under the shroud of this world where human life is like a piece of grass, a normal modern person cannot imagine how crazy his former compatriots would go for a mouthful of water.
Rather than a family dying of thirst and starvation, many people are willing to sell their children to Immortal Joe in exchange for the right to live in the fortress. And these young children who have been trained and indoctrinated with extreme ideas since childhood are the best new force of the Zhanlang Gang. As long as Immortal Qiao gives an order, they will rush forward like mad dogs to eat the flesh and blood of their enemies.
"We are warriors!" "Zhanlang!
! "
"Today we are going to Gas Town!" "Gas Town!
! "
"Today we are delivering cola water!" "Cola water!
! "
When the head warrior in charge of the convoy attached a water storage tank to the trailer, the clear water was tinkling in the tank. A white-haired old man wearing a transparent plastic armor appeared at the hole in the center of the boulder and spoke with a blank voice. His eyes looked down at the people at his feet who had raised pots and pots, waiting for gifts.
"Cheers for Immortan Joe!" "Whoaaah!
! "
Under the spotlight, Immortal Joe, who had enjoyed the crowd's admiration, took the microphone from his son, coughed slightly and then roared: "Once again, we sent tanks to bring back gasoline from Gas Town and from Bullet Farm. bullet......"
"Once again, I salute my commander Fury-Osha! Salute my outstanding warriors who are not afraid of death! They will always fight with me on the chariot until they reach the Hall of Valor!"
"I am your savior!"
Although the same process has happened countless times in the past years, when Immortal Joe's magnetic low voice echoed in his ears, every warrior couldn't help but cross his hands and raise them above his head to express their Love for the Savior.
Seeing that the atmosphere had reached a climax, Immortal Qiao raised his hands and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Through my hands, you will be reborn from the ashes of this world!"
The crowd immediately became commotion when they heard the familiar words, and the cheers became louder and louder. People with telescopes vigorously shook and slapped the water storage tools in their hands, while excitedly observing the three deep holes for water discharge at the feet of Immortal Joe, and muttered: "Get ready! It's coming!"
As Immortal Joe pushed the switch of the water gate with both hands, tons of clear water suddenly rushed out of the cave entrance in the surging waves, and rushed straight to the ground across a height of hundreds of meters. The huge impact seemed to be able to penetrate the sky and shake the earth. .
However, for the residents of the fortress who had been thirsty for who knows how long, the crushing impact of the water column was not enough to stop their determination to get water. At this moment, even Sergeant Hannah had to admit that the scene of thousands of people holding up pots and pans and running towards the waterfall at the same time was indeed spectacular, a rare sight in the empire.
Unfortunately, happy times are always short-lived, because Immortal Qiao knows that the Zhanlang Gang relies on water sources for its existence. Under his high-pressure rule, the people can use water, but they must keep them thirsty and unable to resist.
As a result, the grand scene of tens of thousands of people fetching water only lasted for a few minutes and then came to an abrupt end. The hole where no water flowed out immediately made most of the residents who were outside the crowd and had not touched the water beat their chests.
"My friends, don't be addicted to water. It will take over you and you will resent the days without water."
After delivering a boring and comforting speech as usual, Immortal Joe's figure slowly disappeared from the sight of the high-powered telescopes of the soldiers of the Immortal Army. If the gossip passed down by residents is accurate, the tyrant is most likely enjoying his private swimming pool.
"Human beings have always been like this. When they have wealth, they don't know how to cherish it. After losing everything, they will be grateful for a few coins that slip through their fingers, and even worship their own kind as gods. It's really sad."
Second Lieutenant Erwin looked at the expressions of indifference or sympathy on the faces of the soldiers, and said helplessly that his group was just an advance team and did not have enough strength at all, and it was impossible to change the status quo for some humans in other worlds.
"After the empire crushes all the enemies hiding in this world, I wonder how His Majesty the Emperor will deal with these crazy guys..."
After clearing his mind, Erwin shook his head and used a quantum communicator to send the new information collected by the team back to the base camp - if nothing else goes wrong, the first Guards Corps will be teleported to the nearby desert in a few days. Set up camp in the middle and use large-caliber howitzers to target every corner of the fortress.
Until then, it’s not too late to think about this issue yourself.
