《Armipotent 》Chapter 365: Clowns
Advertisement
Right after Yi Qiao, the other soldiers followed up, "We are from the military establishment, join us and let's rebuild our country together!"
More and more soldiers followed up. They were saying the same thing over and over. Hoping the survivors would be tempted to join them.
They were trying to sell the credibility of the military so people would follow them. Yan Kui believed that at least hundreds of survivors would follow them.
At the same time, Yan Kui secretly glanced at Zhao Zhong, Pride, and Kairu. He was eyeing the three whether they would stop them or not. However, the three remained on the spot.
'They let us do this?' He thought to himself while his men were doing the propaganda.
Meanwhile, from the seventh floor, Tang Shaoyang was looking down on the street. He saw the soldiers were yelling around. He could not hear their voices, but they were like a clown in his eyes.
"What a bunch of clowns," he shook his head. Of course, he had known their 'brilliant plan' from Origin and he was not worried about it.

Yan Kui's attention was on the three who watched them, but soon he noticed that no one came over.
Despite their shouting, telling the survivors they were from the military force, no one came over.
He scanned the surroundings, and he soon realized that he and his men were like monkeys in the zoo. These people were watching them from the sideline.
Yan Kui was stunned, he thought the credibility of the military force would draw the survivors' attention. But it was as clear as the blue sky, none of them were interested.
Zhao Zhong shook his head at these people's pitiful attempts. Their attempt could never work after what Tang Shaoyang did to these survivors.
While taking their data for the database, Tang Shaoyang told them to tell what happened to their beloved country. The possibility where their country had fallen and the military force's facility was destroyed.

It was just the same as informing the survivors that they could only rely on the empire. The government had fallen, and the military was not as strong as the empire to protect them.
Of course, they took another way to convince these people, making them believe that the government was no longer there for them.
The empire was not lying to the survivors. It was what Origin told Tang Shaoyang. He chose to believe in his smart AI.
That was why the survivors did not come over when Yan Kui's men were shouting they came from the military force. They looked at the group weirdly.
On top of that, no one wanted to leave the base. Food was provided to them, a safe shelter with a wall to prevent zombies from coming for them, clean clothes, and clean water.
They had everything they needed here. Following the unknown group with guns and military uniforms was not the best option for them.
They might have a gun, but their leader with a big battle-ax was scarier. It could be said that they felt safer with Tang Shaoyang than the people in a green military uniform.
Yan Kui watched the survivors and the survivors watched them. It was precisely the scene in the zoo for sure.
"Stop! Let's leave!" His tone was harsh. He was humiliated, not expecting this kind of reaction from the survivors. He thought he could use the military name to persuade survivors to join them. The result however was a disaster.
The others quickly realized that what they did was not working. They immediately followed Yan Kui out of the base. That was so embarrassing, none of the survivors reacted to their call.
They walked to the east gate, where they came from. Meanwhile, Zhao Zhong was following the group with a car. He did not invite the group to get into the car.

This pissed Yan Kui even more, but his pride did not allow him to ask for a ride too. He did not want to talk with Zhao Zhong after what happened just now.
In the front seat, Wen looked toward Zhao Zhong, "Is it okay to let them walk like that?"
"I offered them a ride, but they ignored us," Zhao Zhong shrugged. He was telling the truth. He asked them for a ride, but he was ignored as they were busy yelling at the other survivors.
The distance was not that far, it took around thirteen minutes by walking to reach the east gate. Yan Kui was relieved at the sight of their armored vehicles.
Without any words, Yan Kui and his men immediately got into the vehicle. Zhao Zhong told the guards to open the gate, letting them get out.
"Unfortunately Boss does not let me take the armored vehicle, it's quite cool for decoration and intimidation," said Zhao Zhong as he watched the two armored vehicles leave the territory.
Meanwhile, inside the armored vehicle, Yan Kui asked his man to check the things inside as they drove back to SZ City. He was worried that the guards were playing tricks on them.
Sure enough, something was missing. The bullet for the machine gun was missing. They stored four hundred bullets, but none of them could be found inside, not even one.
"Damn!" He slammed his fist to the steel frame in anger, "I am not gonna let this slide like this, I will pay back this humiliation!"
"They want a war, right? Then I will give you what you want!"
After a few hours' trips, Yan Kui and his team entered the Flame Castle Territory. The Flame Castle was the faction that was in charge of the west area of the establishment.
He did not bother to stop by and went straight to the central area, where the main force, the remnant of the military force of the SZ Region.
If SH City's base was a hotel and entertainment building, then SZ City's base was a former office building. The forty floors building.
Yan Kui got out of the vehicle and entered the base, and he met with one of his superiors, "What's the result?"
Yan Kui's group return had been notified, the leaders had gathered on the top floor.
Yan Kui shook his head, "Negative, I have to make a report to Generals," the superior nodded his head, "Follow me, they are waiting on the top floor."
The SZ City Establishment was started by the military group. They secured the central area with the available weapons. They managed to secure the area but also found the smart base.
It was one and half months ago, soon the military force established their foundation and started to rescue the survivors. The military force under the leadership of three Major Generals.
After they established their foundation, the four survivors group joined the military force. One of them was the Flame Castle, which became one of the subsidiary forces.
Aside from the Flame Castle, the other three factions were Xu Group, Tong House, and Dragon Wings.
In total, the SZ City Establishment had seven leaders, three Generals, and four leaders from the four factions.
Yan Kui was asked to make a report to these seven important figures. There was a vicious glint in his eyes as he stood in front of a door. He was about to execute plan c, to persuade the seven leaders to take the SH Base forcefully.

Hunters of the Night
Parmasus was young boy, living with his father and mother. His father was abusive and would would beat both him and his mother, but one day, he went overboard. As Parmasus witnessed his mothers death, he saw only one choice. Run! Eventually, he managed to escape the city, but not without a fatal farewell gift from his father. Then he met Palazar, the vampire, who showed him salvation, and turned him into a vampire. _________________________________________________________________________________________ Hello there. This is my second series, also about vampires. I've always been fascinated with vampires, since childhood, so I decided to write a few different, unique books about them. My first book, Rise of the Vampires is about just that, and how the progenitor rises to power in a world of mixed High Fantasy, and Xianxia. This book however, is different, again. This is more traditional, in the sense that it isn't high fantasy, but closer to low fantasy. It begins in a time period similar to Ancient Greece, but it will travel through time, showing various ages. The vampire world will be similar to the World of Darkness, or Vampire the Masquerade. It's not a female romance book, as it will have action and stuff. But yeah, the books will follow Parmasus as he lives through the ages, becoming older and stronger. Also Rated 18+ for violence, gore, harsh language, explicit sex, etc.
