Chapter 183 Sending a Rescue Team to Cebu

"What?!" Lieutenant General Rivera was shocked by this.

Arlan leaned on his chair with a grim look on his face. "Maharlika was late to close its borders and there was a plane from Pakistan that landed at the airport in Cebu... It turns out that one of them was infected with the virus and that started all this mess."

Lieutenant General Rivera's face became sullen. "I remember that two researchers on our rescue list are in Cebu. I only sent five men to escort them..."

"Who are those two researchers?" Arlan asked while interlocking his fingers on top of his lap.

"From what I remember, one of them was a virologist and the other one was a vaccinologist. According to my subordinates, the vaccinologist was one of the researchers who created a vaccine for coronavirus a few years ago." The commanding general said with furrowed eyebrows.

Hearing this, Arlan's expression turned serious. "We need to find them." He stared at the commanding general and asked. "Can you still contact your men?"

"If they still have their communication device, we should be able to contact them." Lieutenant General Rivera replied while nodding his head.

Arlan stood up from his seat and said. "Contact them as soon as possible." He then turned his gaze to Khalon and told him. "Khalon, inform Sigurd that I'm looking for him and gather fifty soldiers injected with the Body Enhancing Serum."

"Yes, Mr. Roa!"

"Yes, boss!"

Arlan followed the commanding general towards the command center and when they arrived, they immediately contacted the soldiers in Cebu.

"This Lieutenant General Rivera speaking, do you copy?"

Arlan and the other soldiers inside the command center looked serious as they listened through the headphones.

"Ghhhzzzzttt!" There were static noises on the other line which indicated that the signal was weak.

"Ghhhzzzzzzzttt!! G-General, we managed to secure the two VIPs. We are heading to the *Bang! Bang! Bang!* to the mountains of Busay to escape from a large wave of zombies. *Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!* We are almost out of bullets and our rations would only last us for three days. I request for backup!" There were heavy gunshots on the other line. Everyone could already imagine the fierce battle they were fighting just to ensure the safety of the two researchers.

Hearing this, Lieutenant General Rivera heaved a sigh of relief. "Give me a map of Cebu." He said to the soldiers sitting beside him.

The soldier quickly grabbed a map from the pile of documents on his table and handed it to the commanding general.

The commanding general stared at the map and he quickly found Busay. It was the location mentioned by the soldier. After taking a look at the map, he communicated with the soldier in Cebu. "Soldier, take the VIPs to Vista Tower 1.7 kilometers east of your current location. Stay there and wait for rescue to arrive!"

"*Ghhhzzzzzztttt!!!* Yes, General!"

Lieutenant General Rivera turned his gaze to Arlan and said. "Mr. Roa, we need to send a rescue team to help them."

Arlan nodded his head. "I already asked Khalon to bring them here. They should be here soon."

The soldiers in Cebu didn't report any casualties on their side. That means they could still handle the situation. However, they had to send a team to rescue them since they were running out of bullets and rations.

Not long later, Khalon entered the command center together with Sigurd and Karl.

"Boss!" They greeted Arlan upon their arrival.

"Where are the soldiers?" Arlan asked while looking at Khalon.

"They are waiting for your command outside the command center." Khalon replied.

"Good! Let's go!" Arlan led the group out of the command center and they saw fifty soldiers standing in a perfect formation outside.

Arlan scanned them briefly and nodded his head with a pleased look. This was the first batch of soldiers injected with the Body Enhancing Serum. Their physical prowess was already stronger than normal people and they had also gone through arduous training in the virtual world. Just based on skills alone, they were already on the same level as the Oorlewende Unit.

"Sigurd, you will lead this team and Karl will be your deputy. Your task is to rescue our comrades stranded in Cebu. There are also two VIPs that you need to protect during the mission. Once you secure them, bring them back here!" Arlan said to Sigurd and Karl.

"Yes, boss!" The two nodded their heads solemnly.

"You can bring two Black Dragon Assault Helicopters for this mission. Now go!" With two of the aerial beasts, Arlan believed that they would be able to safely return after the mission.

"Yes, boss!"

Sigurd and Karl immediately commanded the fifty elite soldiers to head towards the open field where the assault helicopters were parked.

Looking at them leave, Lieutenant General Rivera suddenly asked. "Mr. Roa, will they be enough for this rescue mission?"

Hearing this, Arlan chuckled as he said. "You underestimate them too much. They brought a recording device with them so we can just watch them in action." Arlan gently patted the commanding general's shoulders.

"I hope so..." Lieutenant General Rivera was still worried. Although he knew that those soldiers were elites, the mission this time was different. They would be facing hundreds of thousands of fearless man-eating beasts! No matter how capable they were, could they handle that many zombies at once?

Arlan noticed the commanding general's worried expression, but he was confident that Sigurd's team could complete the mission.

Meanwhile, Sigurd and Karl led the rescue team towards Cebu Province which was 900 miles away from their current location. The maximum speed of the Black Dragon Assault Helicopter was about 450 miles per hour so they would arrive at their destination in two hours or so.

At this moment, Lieutenant General Rivera and Arlan returned to the command center to maintain communications with the five soldiers in Cebu. They also asked about the status of the two researchers.
