Armageddon 48

While Wu Bing and the rest were left to manage the trucks. Kaosu was now entering the soldier's building once again but this time alone. "Merced are you here?" Kaosu asked the air as if he already knew that the Fallen he saved actually followed him. 'Swish' The sound of a peaceful gale emerged behind Kasou along with it is Kiro appeared instantaneously. "Yes, sir I was already following you in your shadows since we had stepped inside the mansion." Kiro Merced the fallen replied as he bowed to Kaosu as if showing respect and allegiance to him. "Good now since you've already met my team and I know you're wondering is why I haven't introduced you to them is that I need you in my shadows to blend in and to become the unknown variable in every situation. Meaning that is if I did not call you, you may hold back your presence and guard me while I'm on a mission or asleep. then for the rest of the time, you may focus on consuming only prisoner's flesh and don't worry about that I will give you a badge where Jiangong will recognize it and deemed you as an ally" Kaosu instructed as they went to an auspicious corner of the building where he proceeded to give Kiro a small metal sigil of a shield were a mark of a dragon and a man was fighting in the middle. Kiro who now only taught that Kaosu is a powerful man but never imagined that he even had the requirements to command the AI that the federation made to guide the whole of humanity.

"Yes sir thank you for your benevolence," Kiro said as he received the sigil with two of his hands and couldn't help but lick his lips in imagination on how he can morally feast on humans. Because for Fallens like Kiro, they only need to eat the right amount of human flesh and fighting experience to get stronger. As Kaosu only knew this because of the intel when Maximus updated was processed into his brain. But Kaosu can't just randomly give out this information because if he did so many people will question him and even think he was the one that came up with this apocalypse in the first place some powerful person in the federation hates him. After Kiro accepted the sigil he returned to his hiding spot and was reminded vigilant to protect Kaosu's back. Kaosu nodded in approval to Kiro's professionalism it was as if he was not generally a mechanical engineer but rather a well-trained spy. Kaosu left that auspicious corner and went into one of the doors just on the ground floor of the building. "Now I want I want you guys to escort and learn everything from Black's team and return here with all limbs intact also the materials you will get in the laboratory." Kaosu heard this as he entered the room where he saw that the nine soldiers he chooses were sitting by two's and listening to a Sgt projection. Reyland through Ray's own bracelet. "Now that the Sergeant has briefed you of what is your mission you may as well ask me if you guys have any questions but of course except for the confidential stuff like my identity and whatnot," Kasou said as he interrupted the Sgt. Reyland. The only female soldier in the group stood up and asked Kaosu "Sir may I ask what is really the objective of us retrieving this machine and resources on the lab?". Kaosu smiled at this he really liked it if there is someone to be skeptical on the team as to keep their minds just open for all possibilities. "Well, this machine and resources will prove helpful as to give you the soldiers and also the guards on the entrance of the camp a new weapon developed by the council. While I myself will help in reconnaissance to see what dangers lie ahead in the university ground, I remembered you guys were only lucky to escape the prosecution of the people in the main camp because of the Headmaster's knowledge of this underground bunker." Kaosu said as the soldier who was feeling lucky that she can make Kaosu doubt himself failed only proving Kaosu's preparedness and brilliant planning.

The group was quiet for a while then the fat man silently raised his hands to ask a question. "I would like to ask the what is the potential danger for this mission?" He asked as the rest also nodded as this was also a question that lingers in their mind. Kaosu smiled as he continuously nodded in approval to the team. "Well, the initial path to the laboratory is now clear of heavy dangers of evolved zombies as I had already cleared the path to it yesterday night," Kaosu said as he typed something in his bracelet and showed a weird angled video of him fighting off the horde of zombies those corrupted soldiers released. This video was actually retrieved by Kaosu when Jiangong notified his bracelet that there was actually a still working drone that luckily captured him demolishing the horde. Kaosu thought that if the people from the main campus saw this they may be notified and be alert resulting in a major complication to Kaosu's plan. And that's why he commanded Jiangong to hack and stole the drone resulting in him retrieving the one and only copy of his fight.

Back to the team, they were surprised as to how Kaosu managed to deal with the huge amount of 300 undead. "You see when fighting mindless hordes like this you must always prioritize your distance to the zombies. And sometimes you must use every means necessary in fighting these evolved zombies as you can see I fought a variant of the evolved zombies that can manage to lead and control weaker zombies than him." Kasou explained as he showed his initial fight of that leader-type zombie. The team nodded seriously as they currently engraved Kaosu's explanation. 'Beep' Kaosu's bracelet sounded off as they all saw that Wu Ye messaged Kaosu notifying him that they now prepared the trucks. "Now that our transportation is ready we can now go there but for we leave I will give each of you guys a Zerdent Bomb that our team manufactured." Kaosusaid as he threw each of the soldiers there was a more crystal-shaped container. The soldiers caught it nonchalantly as if they were used to this type of rudimentary explosives. But even before they could sense it when they looked up they now found Kaosu is gone leaving only Ray in front embarrassed at Kaosu's behavior.

Wu Bing and Qian Suo were leaning on one of the trucks as they both tried to make small conversation with one another. "So I wanna ask have you killed any zombies by any chance?" Wu Bing asked. Qian Suo looked at her then thought back to himself. "Yes, when we were evacuating every single person into the university district I and Ray were actually one of the few soldiers that the Sergeant tasked to thin out the number of zombies every rescue mission. Wu Bing was shocked but at the same time understood as to why is Qian Suo was powerful and that is because his body was already starting to evolve from killing zombies. "Ah! that's why you are strong, I mean being in any special corps in the army means your stronger but what I meant is that We humans do actually get stronger as we continued to kill zombies." Wu Bing said as she also explained herself as to not belittle Qian Suo. "Is that the reason why your boss is so strong?" Qian Suo asked as he still can't get over the fact that Kaosu actually managed to beat him straight out. Wu Bing smirked as she totally knew what Qian Suo implied but she still answered it anyway. "Actually yes but also our boss is like a closed book full of mysteries. It was just surreal for us when he saved us from a horde of zombies. But also what is amazing is that not only boss is strong but he is also crazy smart like every one of our weapons and clothes was made by him." Wu Bing said in adoration as she showed Qian Suo her rifle. Qian Suo couldn't believe this and asked Wu BIng to let him borrow the rifle. Which Wu Bing agreed easily because he knew one way or another Kaosu will obviously coax him to join us one way or another. "This rifle is like the weapons from the cold era but what's different is that it was tailored and updated to fit the Zerdent energy as plasma bullets." Qian Suo thought to himself as he himself couldn't help admire Kaosu's smithing abilities. But also Qian Suo was reminded as these weapons had an uncanny resemblance to the weapons he always used when he was still in outer space serving the Federation.
