Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies-Chapter 1060: The Liquidation Begins

Chapter 1060: The Liquidation Begins

Zhang Yi stored the two warships into his Dimensional Space, then turned and left without looking back.

General Huo En wiped the sweat from his forehead, his face dark as he slammed his fist violently against the table.

"Damn that Chaos! If it weren't for protecting everyone's lives, I would have fought him to the death!"

Everyone glanced sideways at General Huo En, their expressions difficult to read.

General Huo En raised his voice, speaking excitedly:

"My death wouldn't matter, but there are so many people in the entire fleet, all representing the Navy's future. I can't let you all throw your lives away for nothing!"

"So for everyone's sake, I'm willing to bear this humiliation!"

Lieutenant Colonel Keludi quickly approached, speaking to General Huo En with an agitated expression:

"General, this must be so difficult for you! But rest assured, we all understand you had no other choice in that situation."

In his agitation, General Huo En drew his service pistol: "What's the point of me still being alive!"

"General, no! You mustn't die!"

Keludi and the nearby officers swiftly rushed over and wrestled the gun from his hand.

General Huo En let out a long sigh: "Ah, with you all like this, how will I face the Commander when I return?"

Everyone quickly offered their comfort.

"This mission overall can't be considered a complete failure. Although we didn't obtain the Divine Source, didn't the East Sea Region also fail to get it?"

"Moreover, no one could have predicted that Black-armored Strange Man would suddenly appear."

"Yes, yes, this was an unforeseen accident that no one could have anticipated, General. You shouldn't blame yourself."

After everyone's persuasion, General Huo En finally agreed to reconcile with himself.

As for the two warships taken by Zhang Yi, they could simply blame it on that Black-armored Strange Man afterward, claiming he sank them and Zhang Yi just salvaged them.

After all, Zhang Yi was a space-type superhuman, so him salvaging warships wasn't too hard to believe.

The Colombian Navy went about their business, returning to their naval base.

...

After extorting the Colombian Navy, Zhang Yi quickly turned back to find Xuanwu.

But by this time, Xuanwu had long since disappeared.

Zhang Yi could barely contain his laughter.

He didn't need to think hard to know that Li Tianyang and Xuanwu must have deliberately submerged and escaped because they knew Zhang Yi would come back to settle accounts with them.

Yet Zhang Yi wasn't the least bit anxious, because he still held leverage over them.

This time, he contacted Li Tianyang directly.

"Why are you running away in such a hurry? Qinglong is currently severely injured and urgently needs treatment. Come back quickly to pick him up, otherwise he could die at any moment!"

Zhang Yi wasn't joking about this.

Forcibly raising his cultivation level had inflicted unbearable severe injuries on Qinglong.

Although Zhang Yi had injected him with medication to sustain his life, if he didn't receive proper treatment soon, he would undoubtedly die!

This put Li Tianyang in a real bind.

Qinglong held significant strategic value for the East Sea Region.

He was their second strongest fighter, only behind Xuanwu.

Now that the mission had already failed and the East Sea Region had suffered heavy losses, if anything happened to Qinglong, Li Tianyang might as well shoot himself when he returned, without even needing to face a military tribunal.

"You ruthless Zhang Yi, you're really vicious! Using Qinglong to threaten me."

"Mark my words, the East Sea Region won't let this matter end so easily. You must give us an explanation!"

Li Tianyang's face darkened as he thought for a moment, still feeling he couldn't just abandon Qinglong.

He didn't trust Zhang Yi and couldn't entrust Qinglong's life to Zhang Yi's hands.

"Xuanwu, have him deliver Qinglong to us!"

Li Tianyang said to Xuanwu.

Xuanwu was currently submerged at a depth of over a thousand meters underwater. Hearing Li Tianyang's words, he looked at him expressionlessly.

"Are you sure?"

Li Tianyang snorted coldly: "Of course! Qinglong's life holds great value for the East Sea Region. He can't die now!"

"Besides, I am after all the overall commander of this operation. What could Zhang Yi possibly do to me?"

"Moreover, we still have all the people from their Jiangnan Region in our hands!"

A cold smile appeared on Li Tianyang's face.

He felt that with leverage over Zhang Yi in his grasp, Zhang Yi couldn't cause too much trouble. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Xuanwu nodded: "Alright."

He began surfacing and sent Zhang Yi his coordinates.

It didn't take long for Zhang Yi to arrive at Xuanwu's location.

Xuanwu opened his massive mouth, and Zhang Yi had Hua Hua emerge from Jingwei's shadow.

On its back was the severely injured Qinglong.

Zhang Yi walked into Xuanwu's mouth, a relaxed smile on his face.

In this state, Xuanwu couldn't do anything to him, so Zhang Yi wasn't worried about Xuanwu suddenly attacking him.

Li Tianyang approached with a team of guards.

As soon as he saw Zhang Yi, Li Tianyang couldn't help but swallow nervously.

Epsilon.

Currently the world's top tier of superhumans, possessing the terrifying combat power to single-handedly destroy cities!

Anyone who said Li Tianyang wasn't inwardly terrified would be lying.

But remembering that they were inside Xuanwu's body, and that he controlled all the people from Jiangnan Region—this was his best leverage—Li Tianyang felt somewhat more confident.

"Chaos! You set up quite the elaborate trap this time! You nearly ensnared all of us. After we return, I will demand that your Jiangnan Region give us an explanation!"

Before his words even finished, a slap suddenly materialized from the empty space beside him, striking his face hard!

"Smack!"

Caught completely off guard, Li Tianyang staggered from the blow.

However, he was also a superhuman—although just an ordinary Beta-level enhancement-type superhuman, his physical fitness was still superior to normal people.

Seeing that Zhang Yi actually dared to slap him in front of so many people, Li Tianyang instantly became enraged.

"Zhang Yi! How dare you hit me!"

"Oh?"

Zhang Yi hadn't expected this old fool to be so resilient, so he simply pulled out his gun.

Everyone's expressions immediately changed—Zhang Yi was playing for real now!

Xuanwu's spirit form also flew over. "Chaos, don't be impulsive!"

Zhang Yi glanced at him coldly: "What, you want to fight me?"

Xuanwu: "..."

He looked deeply at Zhang Yi, then silently retreated.

After all, they were inside his body, and he was currently severely weakened—what could he possibly use to fight Zhang Yi?

Smart people don't need lengthy explanations; he knew what choice to make.

Li Tianyang widened his eyes, blustering with false bravado as he shouted: "I am the Operations Department Head of the East Sea Region!"

Zhang Yi raised his gun and shot him in the left kneecap.

Li Tianyang collapsed to the ground with a "thud!"

As he struggled to stand up using his other leg, Zhang Yi aimed at his right kneecap and fired another shot.

"Ahhh!!!"

Li Tianyang lay paralyzed on the ground in agony, wailing incessantly.

Although he was a superhuman, when had he ever undergone proper training and combat? He had merely propped up his physical foundation with medications.

Zhang Yi pointed his gun at Li Tianyang's head and walked over step by step.

"Operation Commander Li Tianyang, incompetent and foolish, issued chaotic commands on the battlefield leading to the tragic deaths of multiple operation team members."

"Moreover, you suppressed superhumans from allied regions, specifically targeting investigation team captain Chaos who performed outstandingly. You even watched people die without saving them, deliberately placing Chaos in life-threatening danger."

"Tell me, don't you deserve to die?"
