Chapter 10 Back to the Peak
Just as I was thinking about it, the doorbell rang.
It's Aunt Cao from the residents' committee.
Followed by three men with tough heads wearing tactical goggles and camouflage uniforms.
All four of them had red hoops tied on their arms with the words "joint defense" written on them.
"The whole family is here, have you eaten?"
Aunt Cao looked into the room and said, "There will be monsters tonight. Let's take a look at each family's weapon preparation. Hey, let's drink!"
"I didn't drink much, so I'm definitely not drunk."
Meng Yishan was a little embarrassed and gave the camouflage uniform a cigarette.
The leader in camouflage uniform waved his hand, declined the cigarette, took out the alcohol tester and let Meng Yishan take a puff.
Seeing that the alcohol concentration was indeed not high, he nodded with a livelier expression.
"This is our community's newly appointed joint defense tactics team, Captain Li." Aunt Cao introduced.
Meng Yishan hurriedly shook hands: "Hello, Captain Li!"
"Li Dayong."
The joint defense captain shook hands with Meng Yishan and said in a low voice, "I just heard from Director Cao that you are an old senior and the ace shooter in the army. How about it? Do you still have enough weapons and ammunition at home?"
"A good man doesn't mention his bravery, it happened decades ago." Meng Yishan waved his hand, "Ah Chao, tell me everything about this guy."
Meng Chao responded, moved the small sofa, knelt on one knee, and lifted up the floor.
Take out a submachine gun, a semi-automatic rifle, a pistol, and two grenades from the secret compartment.
Meng Yishan wanted to disassemble and assemble the firearm according to the process.
Unexpectedly, he had only taken half a step when Meng Chao's hands turned into two masses of gray mist.
Just hearing a "click-click" sound, everyone's eyes were dazzled.
Like a magic show, the firearms in front of Meng Chao have all turned into their most basic parts.
Meng Yishan was stunned.
Captain Li said "Huh".
Meng Chao calmly moved his hands, his fingers jumping as lightly as if they were living elves, and in just a few seconds, he separated the mixed parts and combined them into three firearms.
I have awakened "Basic Marksmanship". Although it is only "normal level", it is quite fun.
He still didn't stand up, so he put the semi-automatic rifle on his shoulder in a kneeling position and checked the sight with ease.
Firearms are like extensions of limbs, exuding a faint murderous aura.
Half a second later, Meng Chao nodded and threw the semi-automatic rifle to Captain Li.
Captain Li grabbed it and stood on his shoulders. With just one glance, he was a little moved: "Good gun, well maintained, better adjusted, shoot wherever you point it!"
"This is Meng Chao, a top student in No. 9 Middle School." Aunt Cao smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed.
It is not easy for a public housing complex like theirs to produce a student with a high grade in the district.
"I see, good boy, if you join the army, you will definitely be an ace marksman!"
Captain Li praised it and continued, "How about it? Do you still have enough bullets at home?"
"There are still three hundred rounds of ordinary bullets, and only two magazines and twenty rounds of armor-piercing bullets left." Meng Yishan said.
"Okay, since there are two gun experts in the family, we can't have less bullets. I will allocate twenty rounds of armor-piercing bullets and one hundred rounds of ordinary bullets to you. Monsters will really spawn. I hope you will bring glory to the community!"
Captain Li waved his hand, and the two men in camouflage uniforms counted out the bullets, and asked Meng Yishan to sign and make the handover clear.
Meng Yishan happily took the magazine and asked, "Twenty rounds of armor-piercing bullets are too few, and grenades are not enough. Can't you give me some more?"
"No way, old man."
Captain Li sighed, "Who told us that the number of monsters killed in our community last year was not up to standard and it was not rated as a five-star community? The superiors only allocated so few guns and ammunition, it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice!"
"Can you blame us?"
Meng Yishan said, "There are no cowards in Tianfuyuan, but we are an old community in the old city. We were afraid of killing monsters here back then. They haven't come to us for a long time. Where can they kill them?"
"Isn't this great? You still think that there will be a tide of beasts coming to kill us all day long?"
Captain Li smiled and said, "Get over it, senior. As long as we can be rated as a five-star community this year, our ammunition base will increase by 20% next year, and we will be rich by then."
"By the way, if a monster really spawns, don't forget to collect bullet casings - Dragon City is short of resources, and bullets have to be reloaded."
"I know, after fighting monsters for decades, how can I still know?" Meng Yishan sent Aunt Cao and Captain Li out and went to 706 next door to knock on the door.
"Lao Meng."
Aunt Cao whispered, "Grandma Wang from 706, her son and daughter-in-law have all died. Her granddaughter lives on campus and she is the only one at home. The old lady has a stubborn temper and refuses to go to the shelter. A monster will really happen later. Please worry more."
ah?"
"Okay, if something really happens, I'll invite the old lady to my home." Meng Yishan agreed.
"What are you mumbling about, gossiping about the old woman behind her back?"
The door to room 706 opened, and a white-haired old woman with wrinkles on her face and all her teeth was missing, waving an extra-large shotgun and roaring with great energy.
After finally fooling Grandma Wang, Meng Yishan went home and distributed guns and ammunition.
"Achao, I didn't expect that your high school's firearms education is so good. Okay, I'll let you have a good time today. Use the two-two bar and I will give you twenty rounds of armor-piercing bullets. Remember, when using armor-piercing bullets, you must add reinforcements.
Kit.
"Su Xin, put your pistol in your pocket and don't stand if your legs hurt. I'll put your wheelchair into combat mode."
Meng Yishan picked up the submachine gun himself, rubbed it skillfully a few times, and then said "tsk".
I didn't expect that Meng Chao could assemble a gun so well.
The adjustment of the sight also took into account his shooting habits.
"Dad, what about me?"
Bai Jiacao stared at him, "Ask mom to give me the pistol. We were taught how to shoot in junior high school, and my live-fire shooting score is still number one!"
"You little girl, what kind of gun are you playing with in the movie? I'll give you this." Meng Yishan pulled out a cold steel recurve saber that imitated the shape of a dog's legs from his waist, "This is also very powerful. I used it back then, with one knife.
Cut off the head of a 'wild wolf'!"
Bai Jiancao muttered: "You have told this story more than eight hundred times."
Meng Yishan stared: "What?"
Bai Jiancao shrank his head and pursed his lips: "Dad, many students in our class are allowed to use guns at home. My classmate Lili used a rocket launcher last time!"
Meng Yishan sneered: "Lili uses a rocket launcher, and you need to use it too. Then at the parent-teacher meeting, the teacher said that Lili can stand for three hours at a stretch. Why can't you stand?"
Bai Jiacao said stubbornly: "I, it's not that I can't stand, I just think the pile exercises in junior high school are too simple and boring!"
My parents didn't believe it at all.
Meng Chao also came over, with a serious face: "Yes, the requirements for pile skills in the college entrance examination are getting higher and higher. Our high school teachers have repeatedly emphasized that firstly, we are not afraid of hardship, secondly, we are not afraid of tiredness, and thirdly, we are not afraid of troubles. Zhuangqong, breathing methods and meditation
The Fa, this is the Trinity, the foundation of cultivation.
"Dad, Mom, I think my little sister is a little impetuous at this time, so she should be educated properly. From now on, let her go home and stand for two hours every day, right?"
Bai Jiancao took a breath of air and looked at Meng Chao with incredible eyes: "You, you are so poisonous!"
Meng Yishan and Bai Suxin looked at each other and put on a friendly smile: "Xiaocao, your brother is right, why not..."
"Why don't I just use a sword? Many powerful men use swords!"
Bai Jiancao hurriedly took the dog-leg knife, flicked out a few beautiful blades, took the scabbard, tied it to his short leg, glanced at Meng Chao secretly, and continued to wash the dishes angrily.
eight pm.
The entire community cut off power and psychic energy supply on time.
All energy must be concentrated to supply searchlights, high-voltage power grids, and automated defense systems.
The alloy armor with a thickness of more than 20 centimeters fell down, covering the windows of every house, leaving only fist-sized shooting holes and observation holes.
The automatic battle fortress rises from underneath the convenience market, small supermarket, small square and primary school.
A battered old anti-monster self-propelled gun rumbled out from the residents' committee, and the Joint Defense Tactics Team also drove out a rusty infantry fighting vehicle to form a mobile force.
Tianfuyuan, the fortress is completed.
The room was dark, and everyone lay down early, closed their eyes and rested, preparing to fight.
Only the crystal radio was left, still publishing the latest news intermittently:
"The first wave of monsters appeared in the steel mill area in the north of the city and is breaking through the Wufu Road defense line. The main force of the monsters is the swarm of flame black beetles, numbering about a thousand. The army and extraordinary people have already entered the battle."
"Scattered monsters have appeared in Jiusha District, and residents are hunting them on the spot in streets and communities."
"Attention, when the fog comes, spiritual energy will be disordered, which may interfere with human brain waves. Many monsters also have the ability to attack mentally. In order to improve morale and ensure the mental health of all citizens, the following is a simulcast of classic military songs from the Earth Age."
"...Move forward! Our blood is strong! We are so sharp that we can shock tigers and wolves!
As the fog becomes thicker and thicker, the spiritual energy floating in the air becomes more and more violent, and the interference of radio waves becomes more and more serious.
The impassioned military songs gradually faded, leaving only the sound of "rustling".
Residents turned off their radios and listened to the sound of artillery in the distance through the thick reinforced concrete and alloy armor.
The sound of cannon is soothing, it is the roar of mankind.
The children were sleeping soundly in their parents' arms, listening to the rumble of cannons.
…
Meng Chao locked the door.
There were only two bedrooms and one living room in the house. Originally, my parents slept in the master bedroom, Bai Jiacao slept in the second bedroom, and he set up a camp bed in the living room.
In the second half of his senior year of high school, in order to allow him to prepare for the exam with peace of mind, Bai Jiacao and his brother temporarily changed rooms.
"Gudu."
Meng Chao unscrewed a bottle of high-energy nutritional supplements and swallowed it in large gulps.
The school teacher said that high-energy nutrients contain rich spiritual energy, which is more than a hundred times that of ordinary monster flesh and blood. You must be careful every time you take it. It is best to use a bottle cap and take it in small spoons.
After taking it, immediately stand up, sprint, punch, and perform high-intensity exercises to release the power of the medicine and gently moisturize every cell.
But Meng Chao drank like a sip of ice-cold Fat House Happy Water on a hot summer afternoon.
As violent spiritual energy poured into his blood, a series of thunderous sounds emitted from Meng Chao's body.
Something incredible happened.
After letting myself go for a year, my thin arms and legs, which were gradually shrinking, and my withered chest all swelled and filled up.
The hair and skin gradually became shiny, and you could faintly see the heat emanating from the pores, creating a ferocious beast-like aura around the body.
His eyes are even more piercing, as sharp as an eagle.
Meng Chao drank to his heart's content, squandering the nutrient solution and potions he had just earned, bottle after bottle, before he burped with unfulfilled satisfaction.
"happy!"
As if the main battle tank was filled with fuel and ammunition, he laughed and punched casually, the punch cutting through the air and making a "hissing" sound like the bite of a poisonous snake.
Compared to Chu Feixiong's heavy punches, Meng Chao's punches sounded sharper, as if all the power was compressed to one point. In actual combat, they were more terrifyingly destructive.
"The power is back."
Meng Chao clenched his fists, as if holding a piece of red-hot steel in his palms.
Although the treatment progress is less than 70%, Meng Chao feels that he has surpassed the peak of his sophomore year in high school.
"This feeling of constantly getting stronger and holding the throat of fate inch by inch is so refreshing."
He punched thousands of times in one breath, and ran in place with his legs raised for three minutes without interruption. He was sweating profusely and absorbed every drop of the medicine. He was about to rest his head on the semi-automatic rifle to regain his strength.
Spirit.
