Light Speed ​​War

Chapter 182: Internal Conflicts

The seawater lapped against the shore, the sound of the waves crashing against the shore rising and falling. The sea breeze caressed Ross's face as he watched the two large bags sink to the bottom of the sea with a splash.

Ross showed a barely perceptible look of pain on his face, stomped his foot, turned around resolutely, got into his car and drove away.

Ross opened the door, turned on the light, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw two men in military uniforms sitting on the sofa. When they saw Ross, the two men stood up.

"Ross, is everything done?" a handsome, tall middle-aged man asked.

"Sir, it's done."

"Okay. According to the organization's plan, we will attack the police station at daybreak."

"So fast?"

"Yes, the boss has lost his patience. Besides, we've long been considered outcasts by the world, and it was only a matter of time."

Ross remained silent. This was clearly a confrontation with all of humanity on Earth. Even if all four thousand super soldiers were mobilized, how could they possibly contend with the entire human race? Ross felt a pang of sorrow.

The two lay down on the sofa to rest, while Ross went to sleep in his own house.

In his sleep, someone nudged him. Ross got up, put on his military uniform, and looked at the alarm clock. It was 4:30 in the morning.

After a quick wash, the three of them set off immediately in Ross's car.

As dawn broke and there were very few pedestrians on the road, Ross's car sped directly towards the Haicheng Police Department.

But when Ross and his two companions arrived, there were already many cars parked in the police station square, and dozens of people lined up in the square. These people were all wearing military uniforms, and there were about fifty of them.

Ross and his two companions walked toward the super soldiers, who clapped softly in welcome. The three then joined the ranks.

A dozen minutes later, a luxury spaceship arrived, and a bald man stepped off. He was wearing a military uniform and had many medals. Two young officers accompanied him.

The three officers walked to the front of the line, and more than fifty people applauded enthusiastically. The bald man then spoke.

"Soldiers, I am heartbroken. We are seen as outsiders by humans. This is not our fault at all. It is the fault of that bastard Filch. Why should we bear the responsibility for his mistakes?" The bald officer's voice boomed, and two or three passersby looked at them strangely.

"We are passionate men, we love the empire, but the empire has abandoned us, extinguishing all our ideals and dreams in ordinariness and loneliness. Give me liberty or give me death."

"Give me liberty or give me death!" A thunderous roar echoed across the square.

"In that case, let's show the world just how powerful we are, and that we are indomitable, passionate men. Let's go!"

More than fifty people, at a single command, rushed quickly toward the main entrance of the police station.

The police station guards had just been awakened from their deep sleep when more than fifty people rushed into the guard post. One soldier punched the reinforced glass, shattering it, and several soldiers grabbed the guards and tied their hands.

The police station's alarm bells blared.

The group of over fifty men continued forward, stormed into the police station, and then split up.

A dozen or so people appeared at the entrance, fully armed and carrying heavy weapons. Then another group of soldiers appeared, carrying rocket launchers and high explosives and bombs. The heavy weapons of the Haicheng Police Department were moved to the police station square by more than fifty people.

As dawn broke, more and more pedestrians appeared on the road. When they saw that a large number of soldiers had gathered in the police station square, they were so frightened that they quickly moved far away.

Moments later, sirens blared throughout the city of Haicheng, their blares particularly piercing in the dawn light, as large numbers of police officers and armed forces rushed toward the Haicheng Police Department.

These fifty-odd super soldiers remained calm and composed, some even lighting cigarettes.

The first to arrive were four police cars, which the police officers used as a shield, and a loudspeaker blared.

"Please put down your weapons. We can talk things over."

The bald man also used a megaphone, shouting, "We are soldiers, not outsiders. We have only one request: to continue serving the Empire."

The police loudspeaker paused for more than ten seconds, then said, "Sir, this is not within my authority, but I will report to my superiors."

"It's no use. We've already pleaded with the military countless times, but they've ignored us. This time, I'll show you what it means to be a super soldier. Everyone, prepare to fire!"

Heavy machine guns and laser guns fired simultaneously at the four vehicles. The bullets passed through the vehicles and killed five police officers. The other four officers quickly retreated, returning fire as they went. During the retreat, three more officers were killed, and the last officer was also killed just as he approached the street corner.

Pedestrians on the street had already screamed and left. In the empty streets and police station square, only the whispers of super soldiers replenishing ammunition could be heard. They were working closely together, knowing that the next battle would not be easy. They would likely face armored forces, then fighter jets, and perhaps even warships.

A rumbling sound came from around the corner, and ten armored vehicles appeared. More than two hundred soldiers jumped out of the armored vehicles and followed them. The heavy machine guns on the armored vehicles fired wildly at the police station square. The super soldiers lay prone on the ground. Rockets were fired, and the ten armored vehicles were destroyed. Some soldiers were burned alive, and screams were heard everywhere.

After eliminating more than two hundred people, the super soldiers began to leave the police station plaza. Each of them took their weapons, drove flying cars, and split into several groups, flying into the alleys between the surrounding high-rise buildings.

Sure enough, more than a dozen interceptors and fighter jets appeared in the pale sky. After circling over the police station square a few times, these interceptors and fighter jets began to fly into the surrounding alleys.

There was no sign of the super soldiers in the alley; they seemed to have vanished. The interceptors and fighter jets had to fly low between the tall buildings.

With a loud bang, a window of a tall building shattered, and a rocket launcher flew past the window, hurtling towards the fighter jet. The fighter jet accelerated, but it was still too slow and was hit by the rocket. Smoke billowing from the air, it crashed into the base of a building and then exploded. The building, as if its foundation had been removed, suddenly tilted and collapsed, crashing into the building opposite. The two buildings collided, and the building that was hit also tilted and collapsed.

Interceptors and fighter jets that were patrolling other buildings and alleys immediately took off and left these dangerous areas, then accelerated away and disappeared into the horizon.

It was almost 7 a.m., and the entire city of Haicheng was in an uproar. The morning news released a government announcement stating that more than 3,000 super soldiers had launched organized terrorist attacks in several cities. President Thomas had declared a global security emergency, ordered special forces to enter the operation, and reminded citizens of the attacked cities to stay at home, close their windows and doors, and not to go out, and to wait for further instructions from the government.

The Thomas administration immediately recalled the nine hundred super soldiers to prevent them from participating in terrorist attacks. Of course, they monitored their physical characteristics 24 hours a day and found that around seven or eight o'clock in the evening, these super soldiers would have bloodshot eyes that lasted for about half an hour. During this half hour, the super soldiers would show agitation and violent tendencies, and then return to normal after half an hour.

More than 900 super soldiers actively cooperated with doctors and scientists in their research and treatment. Through various comparisons between normal people and super soldiers, it was discovered that the MAOA-L gene of the super soldiers had undergone a serious mutation, and this mutation was accelerating. Gene scientists began to look for ways to correct the gene mutation.

The terrorist attacks by super soldiers continued in several cities, and at night, the roar of a beast could be heard in the cities. These super soldiers had mutated.

These cities were gripped by panic, and rumors of a biohazard crisis began to circulate online.

Some scientists have suggested that Zhou Yuan's ketosomes be used to fight these super soldiers.

Thomas urgently convened a meeting of heads of various military and political departments, and Zhou Yuan, operations and maintenance personnel, and some scientists were also invited to attend.

At the meeting, Thomas briefed the councilors and officials on the terrorist attacks carried out by super soldiers in several cities and asked Zhou Yuan if he could use the newly discovered Keron bodies to fight the super soldiers. Zhou Yuan hesitated for a moment, but then agreed. Zhou Yuan had about one hundred Keron bodies; Filch must have spent a considerable amount of time and money acquiring them.

Zhou Yuan's Kelong body clearly also possesses some special abilities, which are just right to deal with super soldiers.

Super soldiers are difficult to eliminate primarily because they are extremely stealthy, have rapid reflexes, and are physically robust. Even after being hit by dozens of heavy machine gun bullets, their wounds can heal automatically unless they are killed by a headshot. Fortunately, these super soldiers did not attack civilians, but only key government departments.

One night, more than 100 of Zhou Yuan's Kelon bodies were secretly transported to the seven cities that had suffered terrorist attacks, with approximately 15 Kelon bodies assigned to each city.

Fifteen Keronians, carrying various special equipment, began searching the city for super soldiers. Once they found a super soldier, these Keronians, like city hunters, mercilessly killed their hidden prey.

Screams could be heard from some corner of the city at night. Citizens hadn't left their homes for a week. Wild animals were appearing on the empty streets. All land, water, and air routes connecting the city to the outside world had been blocked by the Imperial Armed Forces to prevent super soldiers from escaping to other places.

The war between Zhou Yuanke Longti and the super soldiers has begun in seven cities.

The Empire's various deep-space probes are closely monitoring the battle in the city.

The video transmitted back from the satellite shows that after three or four Keronians found more than a dozen super soldiers, a fierce and bloody battle ensued. The Keronians' advantages were their unusual speed, resilience, and strong healing abilities. With these three advantages, the three or four Keronians actually gained the upper hand in their fight against the dozen or so super soldiers. In these battles, often one or two Keronians would sacrifice themselves to eliminate the dozen or so super soldiers. If a super soldier was separated from the group, they would be mercilessly killed by the Keronians.

With the number of super soldiers decreasing sharply, the Keronoids have actually benefited, and their individual combat power has been fully demonstrated. This is a process of ebb and flow.

The battle between one hundred Keronians and three thousand super soldiers ended in a victory for the Keronians, but they also lost more than half of their forces, with about three or four remaining in each city. Finally, twenty-five Keronians were transported back to their base.

After confirming that no super soldiers existed, the government lifted the lockdown, and citizens returned to their daily lives. However, regarding this super soldier crisis, some voices pointed out that the humanity and wishes of those special groups should be taken into account.

The Thomas government erected two monuments for the super soldiers and the Keronians, respectively. These two monuments are located on either side of the presidential palace, serving as a constant reminder to the officials to pay attention to the internal conflicts within humanity.

The twenty-five Zhou Yuanke bodies were put into hibernation and sealed away.
