Chapter 393

~8 min read 1,466 words

After finishing with Liang Shaoguang, Lin An had the others leave first.

Meanwhile, while Liang Shaoguang stammered, Lin An had him call Fan Bing in.

This honest truck driver, upon clearly hearing An's meaning, was almost scared silly.

A few minutes later, the hastily arriving Fan Bing walked into the meeting room, feeling both surprised and at a loss.

She tied her long hair into a ponytail imitating Wen Ya's style, and her makeup also became light.

It's simple; Fan Bing felt that Lin An and Wen Ya had a close relationship, so she just imitated Wen Ya.

Seeing Lin An summon her over, Fan Bing nervously sat down beside him.

Why did he call me?

But she had heard that Lin An was leading people in convening a defense meeting, and the attendees were the base's strongest players.

As a zero-combat-power Awakened One, why did Lin An summon me?

She was just thinking wildly, but she keenly sensed that Lin An's mental state was poor, as if exhausted.

Noticing that Wen Ya and Mo Ling were absent, Fan Bing, inexplicably, moved a bit closer.

Unconsciously, she looked at Lin An with some worry.

"Lord Lin An, are you alright?"

The concern is genuine, the worry is also genuine.

During this time living in the base, she genuinely felt that Lin An was the spiritual pillar of the entire base.

If Lin An encountered trouble, the entire Long'an Base could instantly fragment into loose sand.

"I'm fine."

Lin An forced a smile and waved his hand to indicate he was okay.

He turned his head toward Chu An and lit a cigarette.

Smoke curled around, his fingertips tapping the tabletop.

"Chu An, you mean to have Liang Shaoguang track the Wangjiang Military Region's soldiers and then capture them?"

"Have Fan Bing disguise herself as a soldier and bring the meme doll into the military region?"

"That's right."

Chu An picked up the map and drew two circles.

"If negotiations fail, or if they ignore our threats, then we can only do this."

"We can't afford to gamble."

"Once the zombie tide launches an attack, it is expected to last 3-7 days."

"During this period, we are like a taut string, unable to withstand any external disturbance."

"Who knows if the Wangjiang Military Region will take the opportunity to attack us?"

"Just one round of bombardment will cause holes in our barely holding defensive line."

"By then, you clearly know what the consequences will be."

"Rather than this..."

"It would be better to destroy them first!"

Chu An paused a moment, then gave Fan Bing a stiff smile:

"Don't worry."

"You only need to bring the meme doll into the military region's interior; the carrier is not you."

"The doll kills slowly; as long as you flee in advance, you won't die."

Chu An simply comforted Fan Bing, then continued speaking:

"I intend to let Liang Shaoguang's wife serve as the carrier."

"I discussed this with Gao Tian, and you also have this plan, right?"

Lin An nodded.

In Gao Tian's speculation, Liang Shaoguang's wife Zhou Fengling is suspected to be the true origin of the meme doll.

If Zhou Fengling is used as the doll's carrier, the doll summoned again can indeed destroy the military region.

That thing is too inexplicable.

Especially the meme doll thrown into the military region out of thin air; the other side has no chance to decipher it.

However.

Lin An frowned slightly:

"I have indeed considered using the doll as a trump card for intimidation, but once used, if something goes wrong, even we cannot control it."

"Once the doll's kill count exceeds a certain threshold, it could possibly destroy the entire war zone."

Chu An lifted his glasses frame, without rebuttal:

"That's correct, so I will say this is the final measure."

"Actually, in my conception, the best solution is also to use the doll as a trump card for intimidation."

"After you next contact Liang Shaoguang and reach the reconnaissance team, you can first negotiate with the Wangjiang Military Region."

"Directly tell them that if negotiations fail, we will use the doll."

"We only need to buy time until the zombie siege ends."

"After dragging out until the zombie tide ends, we will then launch other plans."

"First, I have sorted out several major forces in the Linjiang War Zone; one of them has decent strength but seemingly received a hint from the military, and they have slandered us the most in the chat channel."

"By disparaging and mocking Long'an and you to gain popularity, this force has absorbed a large number of survivors in the Linjiang War Zone."

"Therefore, after the zombie tide ends, I want you to single-handedly slaughter the city."

Moreover, it is to display strength before the captured Wangjiang reconnaissance team.

At the same time, we can also make a high-profile show of force, thereby attracting the attention of all of Huaxia in one go.

On one hand, to deter the Wangjiang Military Region; on the other hand, to display military power.

His voice was calm, but Chu An's words fell into Fan Bing's ears, simply like a demon.

Slaughter the city!?

Just to make a show of force, slaughter the city?

She was unaware of the covert confrontation between Long'an Base and the capital, and felt this approach was truly somewhat unfathomable.

On the other hand, Lin An had little reaction.

Chu An's idea is similar to his.

This approach is similar to that of amoeba worms, likewise using absolute military power to deter all sides.

As for single-handedly slaughtering a city, the purpose is simply to convey a message to everyone.

Before thinking of attacking Long'an Base, first consider whether your own forces can stop him, Lin An.

If Long'an Base is destroyed, Lin An, a lone individual, will become everyone's nightmare.

You want to destroy my base?

Then sorry.

I will kill your whole family.

Any surrounding force, before acting, lacking absolute confidence to resist Lin An's solo infiltration, will feel apprehensive.

By the way, doing this can also boost prestige, in one sweep dispelling the doubts Lin An has faced during this period.

I didn't make the list; that's just because the list is all trash.

Second Level? I could crush it with a single finger!

In the apocalypse, the strong are supreme.

Brutal, what's wrong with slaughtering a city?

Not to mention that the forces chosen by Chu An are essentially courting death; even without a "reasonable" justification, few would see a problem.

However, Lin An looked at Chu An with some doubt:

Although this approach is not wrong.

But once the existence of the Meme doll is exposed, we actually lose a trump card.

Moreover, forces far from us probably won't worry.

Spanning thousands of miles, we cannot toss the doll like launching a nuclear missile.

Even if we find a warplane and risk dropping the doll into those forces, at most we could eliminate one.

Once we use the doll, we are likely to become the target of a concerted attack.

Public opinion is very important; our situation remains unchanged.

The question is posed.

Chu An's face suddenly broke into an inexplicable smile.

His expression suddenly became excited:

Lin An, do you still remember what you told me, that you wanted to use the reward after holding off the corpse tide?

You wanted to use the broadcast license to find AnXia again?

Lin An frowned slightly, not knowing why Chu An suddenly said this.

That's right, I intend to do so, only with a special method.

I plan to disguise the broadcast license as a system task, using the vast player base to find information about AnXia.

Doing this can largely protect AnXia.

This method occurred to Lin An after seeing the Savior System's simulation system; it is much stronger than his earlier ideas.

As long as we pretend the broadcast license is a system task, then casually say in the task a few lines: 'Do not harm AnXia this "Mutant", find the reward artifact, etc.'

All major forces will go crazy upon hearing it.

Since it's fake, the reward etc. can be fabricated however.

Moreover, Lin An also plans to take the opportunity to 'sell' that contaminated divine artifact pistol.

Multiple gains in one move.

But what does this have to do with the Meme doll?

Just as his words fell, while Lin An was puzzled, Chu An spoke softly:

Lin An, in fact, haven't you already thought of it?

The broadcast license is actually a prop for indiscriminate, large-scale information transmission.

Therefore.

We only need to widely transmit the fear information of the Meme doll.

Thus.

An indiscriminate, distance‑ignoring, undispellable 'nuclear bomb' is thus born...

Whoever dares to act, will be 'blown up' to death...
