Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse With My Military System

Chapter 215 I Can Do This All Day

Chapter 215 I Can Do This All Day

The command center of Richard's operation was brimming with anticipation as the SS-18 Satan missile, armed with a W-60 warhead, raced towards its target in Shanghai. The large screens displayed the missile's trajectory, a clear line cutting across digital maps and satellite imagery.

Richard stood at the forefront, eyes glued to the screens.

As the missile neared its destination, a tense silence enveloped the room. Every staff member, from analysts to technicians, held their breath, their eyes not wavering from the screens. The missile, now just moments away from impact, was a small blip on the satellite feed, hurtling towards the densely populated areas of Shanghai.

The countdown began.

"Impact in 10... 9... 8..."

"3... 2... 1... Impact."

The screens flashed as the missile struck Shanghai. A brilliant burst of light erupted, followed by a massive explosion that tore through the zombie-infested streets. The force of the blast was monumental, its shockwave rippling outward, leveling buildings, and obliterating everything in its radius.

A cloud of dust and debris mushroomed into the sky, the aftermath of the explosion rendering parts of Shanghai unrecognizable. The once-teeming hordes of zombies were instantly vaporized by the blast, leaving a gaping crater where the bustling commercial district once stood.

In the command center, a hushed awe followed the initial shock. Eyes widened as the realization of the strike's success sank in. Richard, while aware of the destruction caused, couldn't help but feel a surge of triumph.

As the dust settled on the screens, the system began updating Richard's stats in real-time. The numbers rolled in rapidly:

[Congratulations! You have killed 1,100,000 zombies.]

[You received 2,200,000,000 gold coins and 176,000,000 experience points.]

[Your updated stats!]

Richard clicked his tongue subtly, he was one million experience points behind to level up to 46, but it was only a matter of time. The sheer volume of gold coins and experience points accumulated from this single strike was staggering. The strategic decision to target densely populated zombie areas had paid off in a way that exceeded even Richard's expectations.

"Excellent," Richard muttered, almost to himself. His mind was already racing ahead. "We still have one nuke right?"

"Affirmative sir," Mark responded. "Do you want us to prepare it for another strike?"

Richard nodded his head in confirmation.

"Very well sir…Blackwatch to Zeus. Eagle Actual has given the green light for another strike. Prepare the remaining SS-18 Satan missile for launch. Stand by for target coordinates."

"Zeus copies, Blackwatch," the voice from the intercom responded efficiently. "Prepping the last SS-18 Satan for launch. Awaiting target coordinates."

"Sir…should we scout for another city in China?" Sara asked and continued. "There are still cities in China that are as populous as Beijing and Shanghai. "Yes, let's evaluate other cities with significant populations. We need to make this next strike count," Richard replied, turning his attention back to the screen.

Sara quickly pulled up a list of the most populous cities in China on the main display. "Here are the potential targets based on population density and zombie infestation levels," she explained, pointing to the digital map that now showed several highlighted areas.

"The next major cities with high zombie populations are Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Chongqing," Sara continued. "Guangzhou has a population of over 15 million, Shenzhen around 13 million, and Chongqing exceeds 30 million. All of these cities have reported significant zombie outbreaks and could serve as strategic targets."

Richard considered the options carefully. "Guangzhou and Shenzhen are coastal cities, right?" he asked, scrutinizing the map.

"That's correct, sir. Both are major economic hubs with dense urban areas, which means high zombie concentration," Sara confirmed.

"And Chongqing?" Richard inquired further.

"It's a sprawling metropolis, one of the largest cities in the world by area. The zombie infestation there is extensive," Sara replied.

Richard weighed the options. "Given the proximity and the economic significance, let's target Guangzhou first. It's closer to our current satellite positioning."

"Understood, sir. I'll start repositioning the satellite over Guangzhou and get the exact coordinates for the highest concentration of zombies," Sara said, her fingers already busy on the control panel.

As Sara worked on acquiring the necessary data, Richard's thoughts were already on the future. For now, he wanted to reach level 50. He believed that reaching that level would give him access to new technologies or units that are far stronger than what they have now. Given the experience points needed to get there, it would take at least ten million zombie kill counts, but with their current strategy, it was feasible.

"Sir, repositioning the satellite over Guangzhou now," Sara announced as she worked diligently at her station. "It will take a few minutes to get the exact coordinates."

Five minutes later, Sara broke the silence. "Sir, the satellite is positioned over Guangzhou. We're getting the exact coordinates now."

"Perfect," Richard responded, stepping closer to the main screen. "Let's see the areas with the highest concentration of zombies."

The screen displayed a detailed map of Guangzhou, highlighting several key areas teeming with undead. Richard studied the map intently.

Sara zoomed in on one particular district in Guangzhou, pointing to a densely populated urban zone. "Sir, this area here, the Tianhe District, shows a massive concentration of zombies. It's a major commercial and residential hub, densely packed with high-rise buildings."

Richard leaned forward to get a better view.

"What's the estimated number in that area?"

"Based on the density and the size of the district, we estimate there are around 1.2 million zombies in Tianhe alone," Sara reported, her eyes not leaving the screen.

"1.2 million…" Richard murmured, processing the information. "That's a significant number. Lock in the coordinates for Tianhe District as our primary target."

"Coordinates for Tianhe District: 23.1291° N, 113.2644° E," Sara confirmed as she inputted the data. "Target locked in, sir."

"Zeus, this is Eagle Actual. Coordinates for the next strike are set. Prepare the SS-18 Satan missile for launch to these coordinates," Richard commanded.

"Copy, Blackwatch. Coordinates received and logged. Missile is prepped and ready for your command," Zeus replied, the readiness evident in their tone.

Richard stepped back.

"Stand by for my launch command," Richard said.

"Zeus, on my mark," Richard said, his voice clear and unwavering. "Three, two, one, Mark!"

"Missile launched, Eagle Actual," Zeus confirmed.

"I can do this all day," Richard muttered under his breath.
