Chapter 55 20 million rounds of ammunition reserve plan!

The news that a Zombie Storm was about to erupt.

made Ji Yan's rarely relaxed nerves tighten once again!

He immediately returned to the base and presided over an emergency meeting.

Song Zhiwen, Li Tiezhu, Qinglong, and other high-ranking officials arrived one after another, most of them appearing quite bewildered by the meeting.

"What's wrong? What happened? No zombies attacking, right?"

"Why are we having a meeting at this hour? I'm still busy with an experiment! I was halfway through one just now, and I need to rush back to finish it!"

"We have urgent matters in our command center too, why is there a meeting today?"

Everyone was discussing animatedly, clearly very curious.

However, the smart ones had already fallen silent.

Because they noticed something was off with Ji Yan; his expression was very grim today.

"Are you done talking? If not, keep talking. We'll start the meeting when you're done!" Ji Yan reprimanded coldly, startling everyone in the conference room. They all became as silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to speak further.

Ji Yan was now the undisputed top boss of Dongjiang City!

Not only did he have a strong and well-equipped army under his command, but he was also decisive in action, ruthless, and iron-blooded!

He had also developed the domineering aura of a true hero, so a single glance or a reprimand was enough to make everyone tremble with fear and dare not act presumptuously.

"Yan Ye, please calm your anger!" Song Zhiwen said with a fawning smile, "It's our lack of discipline. Do you have something urgent to discuss by calling us all here?"

"Mm!" Ji Yan nodded silently, his expression softening slightly as he said, "According to reliable sources, a Zombie Storm will erupt in ten days. Therefore, this emergency meeting has been called to discuss how to deal with it."

"Zombie Storm?"

"What is that?"

Everyone looked puzzled, clearly quite confused!

Ji Yan casually explained, "To explain it scientifically, it should be that the activity of the zombie virus has enhanced to a certain critical point of metamorphosis, which will cause all zombies to go berserk and trigger a surge!"

"During this period, they will be bloodthirsty and violent, their strength will greatly increase, and they will tirelessly attack human settlements, devouring all living creatures they can see!"

"Hiss!"

Everyone couldn't help but gasp.

They finally understood why Ji Yan's expression was so grim.

If that were truly the case, this would be a catastrophe!

Since the outbreak of the apocalypse, countless survivors have struggled between life and death, constantly gaining experience, and only barely managing to survive.

Many thought that the future would get better and better, and that zombies could be eliminated sooner or later!

But now it seemed, the catastrophe had only just begun!

Their peaceful lives would be shattered again, and no one knew how many people would die this time.

"Yan Ye, is the news confirmed?" Song Zhiwen frowned and asked in return, "Where did you get this information? We've been monitoring the activity of the zombie virus, and we haven't found any such signs!"

"You don't need to know the source of the information!" Ji Yan said sternly, "I can tell you, this news is absolutely true, and the Zombie Storm will definitely erupt in ten days."

"This?"

Song Zhiwen immediately fell silent.

If anyone else had said this, he wouldn't have believed it.

But when Ji Yan said such a thing, the credibility was very high.

Because everything about him was very mysterious; this Shelter alone was an incomprehensible existence. So what reason did Song Zhiwen have to doubt him?

"Zombies won't reason with us!" Ji Yan said coldly, "If you want to survive, you must become stronger as soon as possible. No matter what method we use, we must, within these ten days, accumulate enough strength to deal with a siege of a million zombies, understand?"

"Understood!"

Everyone roared in agreement.

A1 Base was located within the city.

Once the Zombie Storm truly erupted, millions of zombies would definitely go berserk and besiege this place.

Whether they could withstand it was still up in the air, so everyone's hearts were very heavy.

"Before we discuss countermeasures, I want to hear a summary of the situation within our base." Ji Yan said seriously, "Qinglong, you speak!"

"Yes!" Qinglong replied, and directly stated, "Currently, our base's Guard Team and mercenaries are at full strength and fully staffed. In case of intense combat, we can also conscript five thousand scavenger groups and approximately twenty-five thousand adventurers."

"These adventurers are residents who couldn't find work at the base and were forced to go out to collect supplies and hunt zombies. Most of them have purchased weapons and ammunition, and possess certain combat experience, so they may not be worse than ordinary survivors in battle!"

"Of course, if automatic rifles are issued, the combat power of these adventurers can be significantly improved, providing a great guarantee for the base when dealing with large-scale zombie sieges."

Qinglong spoke eloquently, clearly having a well-thought-out plan!

After a pause, he continued, "However, because we have been selling firearms externally, our firearm reserves are not abundant. There are only two thousand various firearms in the warehouse, three million rounds of ammunition, and two hundred thousand high-explosive grenades."

"This amount of reserves is enough for at most one annihilation battle; it is simply not enough to support us through a siege battle. Therefore, we must quickly increase our firearm inventory!"

"Of course, we have a lot of food and water in our warehouse; the supplies can feed and hydrate one hundred thousand people for a year without them starving. If necessary, we can also hide inside the base to avoid the Zombie Storm!"

Qinglong articulated his views in detail.

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions gradually turned grim.

Ji Yan also couldn't help but twitch his brow.

He never expected the inventory of firearms to be so low.

Three million rounds of ammunition seemed like a lot, but in reality, machine gun fire couldn't sustain for long at all.

Especially when tens of thousands of automatic rifles were firing, imagine how much ammunition would be consumed in one second? It would be gone in a flash!

However, fortunately, producing bullets was simple; just set up a few more production lines!

Therefore, Ji Yan wasn't too flustered and instead began to reassure them.

"This is my oversight!" Ji Yan admitted with a frown, "I've been selling firearms to earn crystals, and I didn't expect the Zombie Storm to come so quickly. Now, we must produce bullets as quickly as possible. I will arrange these things, and I guarantee that within ten days, the ammunition inventory can reach twenty million rounds!"

"Twenty million? That many?"

"If there's that much, it should be enough!"

"That's great!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Large-scale bullet manufacturing requires a lot of chemical raw materials!" Ji Yan frowned and asked, "How much raw material reserve do we currently have in our base?"
