Chapter 1415 - Another Way (1/2)

From a distance, there was a roar that tore through space.

A thick cylindrical mass, engulfed in a ball of bright-orange flame, crossed a distance of hundreds of kilometers and smashed into the alloy gate like an iron fist.

The shell that was accelerated to the limit shredded the giant gate together with the mountain next to it with its destructive force. A deafening roar surged up from the quaking ground. Its annihilation power could be felt even from far away.

However, when the dust settled, Zhang Wei’s expression quickly changed to disappointment.

The alloy door was blasted open.

To be precise, it was destroyed.

Not only that, even the mountains that the cave was embedded into were also destroyed by this shell…

Zhang Wei stood there silently for a long time before he squeezed out a foul language that he had recently learned.

“Fu*k…”

The entrance to the West Coast Meteorological Monitoring Center was destroyed. The USN soldiers inside could not get out, nor could anyone outside get in.

Unwilling to just stand outside and do nothing against the weather weapon that could be launched at any point, Wade brought dozens of National Guard power armors into the ruins as they attempted to dig a way into the collapsed mountain. However, it turned out that the power armor was not designed for drilling. Despite their best effort, they did not succeed.

“It’s useless, we need professional construction equipment, like excavators or drills.” When Zhang Wei walked to Wade’s side, there was a visible frown on his face as he looked at the rubble.

He debated if another shell was a good idea.

But when he thought that this might make the situation worse, he gave up on the idea after some hesitation.

Not far away, the National Guard finally gave up relying on manpower to remove the collapsed rubble, because they finally discovered that it was not just the door that had collapsed, but the entire tunnel behind the door.

At this time, the Minuteman “Rangers” also rushed over with their motorcycles. After they saw the collapsed mountain, they also felt helpless.

Zhang Wei could not formulate a plan, so he had to report to the command post. After he learned two excavators and an engineer company had set off from Outpost Town, he ordered his men to start cleaning the battlefield.

Hopefully, we can make it.

After he ended the communication with the command post, Zhang Wei was about to find a place to rest. However, a soldier in kinetic skeleton walked up to him and saluted.

“Report sir, we found him in the concrete ruins.”

As the soldier spoke, a survivor in ragged clothes was pushed in front of Zhang Wei.

“First of all, I am definitely not on their side.” When Blood Axe realized Zhang Wei was examining him with intrigue, he quickly raised both of his hands to signal that he was not hostile. Then he carefully said, “If you have heard of Outpost Town on the West Coast, you can hand me over to the Governor Zhou Guoping there. I can guarantee you’ll get a huge ransom.”

“Zhou Guoping?” Zhang Wei raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “How long have you not been back to the West Coast?”

Blood Axe took a second to digest this information. He didn’t react to the amount of information in this sentence.
