Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

Chapter 262: ACE Special Forces

After analyzing the recent intelligence, Chen Xinian concluded that Zhang Yi was in possession of billions worth of goods from Walmart. He was so excited by this revelation that he couldn't sit still, pacing back and forth in his room.

"It must be like this; it's the only explanation for all his actions," he mused. "If that's the case, we must capture Zhang Yi!"

Ge Rou, standing nearby, was equally shocked and delighted upon hearing the news. "Congratulations, Leader! We've found another massive cache of resources for West Hill Base!"

Chen Xinian nodded, pleased. This accomplishment would certainly add to his legacy.

"Our base's supplies are dwindling, especially food and energy, which are in a state of net depletion with no effective replenishment. But if we can secure the goods from the world's largest warehouse, we can ensure at least ten years of abundant resources!"

Chen Xinian tossed the documents onto his desk and decisively ordered, "Bring Ling Feng to me!"

Soon, Ling Feng, the captain of the ACE Special Forces, arrived at Chen Xinian's office. Chen Xinian gave him a direct order: breach Zhang Yi's shelter at any cost and capture Zhang Yi alive.

"If you can take that shelter, you're authorized to request any resources you need from the base!" Chen Xinian declared generously.

Ling Feng, adhering to his military discipline, didn't question the reasoning behind the order. For him, obeying commands was his duty, and orders from the leader were absolute.

"Yes, sir. I guarantee the mission will be completed!" Ling Feng's expression was as steely as iron, showing no doubt that he could fulfill any task given to him.

Ge Rou, trying to be helpful, added, "It's said that shelter was built for ten billion dollars—extremely robust. If you need assistance breaching it, I can arrange for our engineers and demolition experts to help."

"Our base is never short on weapons!" she assured.

Ling Feng nodded, a hint of battle hunger glinting in his eyes. It had been too long since he had faced a worthy opponent, and now, finally, someone was interesting enough for him to stretch his skills.

After leaving Chen Xinian's office, Ling Feng immediately began preparing for the upcoming assault. Chen Xinian leaned back in his chair, rubbing his forehead.

"This battle is one we must win! Our base's resources will only last for another six months. If we can't secure victory, we'll have to 'optimize' our internal personnel or wage war on other shelters to alleviate internal pressure."

Ge Rou bowed slightly, offering comfort. "Don't worry, Leader. Zhang Yi is just a small fry. He's not some superhuman."

"We will win," she assured. "By the way, what would you like for lunch? You've been working so hard lately, and you seem a bit tired. Should I ask the kitchen to make you a ginseng chicken soup?"

Chen Xinian nodded. "Sure, just something simple."

Ge Rou smiled, pulling out her communicator to inform the kitchen that the leader wanted chicken for lunch. Suddenly, Chen Xinian's eyes lit up with inspiration. "Ge, I just had another idea regarding the food shortage problem. Let's see if it's feasible."

Ge Rou's heart sank a little. Every time Chen Xinian had a bright idea, it meant a lot of work for the team, regardless of whether the plan would work. For instance, the idea to process corpses into high-protein food was one of Chen Xinian's spur-of-the-moment decisions.

However, Ge Rou still put on a cheerful and admiring face. "Leader, what brilliant idea have you thought of this time? Please, do tell."

Chen Xinian smiled confidently. "The base is short on food, right? Well, I think there's room for improvement."

"Look, we've already addressed the issue of food by breeding American cockroaches and reusing human remains. We've managed to feed many people that way."

"We need to keep pushing forward and think about other potential resources that are being wasted."

"For example, can feces be reused? Digestion isn't a perfect process, after all."

Ge Rou felt a wave of nausea but managed to swallow it back. She maintained her admiring smile, clapping her hands in approval. "Leader, that's an absolutely fantastic suggestion! I can't believe we didn't think of it sooner."

"I'll contact the experts in the biological lab immediately to come up with a plan on how to turn waste into high-quality food."

Chen Xinian laughed heartily. "Yes, it's just an idea. Check its feasibility."

Ge Rou continued to flatter him. "Your insight is truly unparalleled, Leader. This idea could greatly ease our food supply issues. It's sure to work!"

...

Meanwhile, Ling Feng, having received his orders, immediately mobilized the combat department to prepare for the upcoming assault. He ordered Shen Hong, Yu Lang, and their troops to set up a temporary base near the shelter and conduct a detailed reconnaissance of the area, paving the way for the main force's arrival.

Unsurprisingly, they chose Xu Family Town as their staging ground. The location had ample food, suitable housing, and was close to Cloud Manor.

Ling Feng then summoned the team leaders among the Superhumans, instructing them to stay alert and ready for combat at any moment.

"Our opponent this time is also a Superhuman, and based on the intel, he's incredibly powerful. He defeated both Xie Huanhuan and Liu Ziyang, and Shen Hong's team lost over a dozen men. We cannot afford to underestimate him!"

In the corner, Liang Yue listened to Ling Feng's battle plans, her mind suddenly stirring.

Zhang Yi?

Wasn't that the man who had barged into Tianqing Academy and taken Yang Xinxin?

Liang Yue remembered that Zhang Yi was accompanied by two other Superhumans, but Ling Feng hadn't mentioned this detail. The difference in combat effectiveness between facing one Superhuman versus three was significant.

Liang Yue's brow furrowed slightly, her eyes flashing with a peculiar light. She had no intention of sharing this crucial information with Ling Feng. She had no desire to stay in West Hill Base any longer. However, leaving was easier said than done; finding a suitable place to live afterward was another challenge altogether.

A bold idea suddenly crossed Liang Yue's mind. Perhaps she could contact Zhang Yi and seek his help. After all, Yang Xinxin was her student, and Liang Yue believed their connection might provide a way to negotiate with Zhang Yi.

Taking a deep breath, she approached Ling Feng and said, "Captain, I request to join the team on this mission!"
