Chapter 3274 - Untitled

None of the people who had survived ten years of nuclear clouds, acid rain, mutant beasts, radiation diseases, and brutal cannibalism were idiots.

Everybody knew that there were two worlds above the ground and below the ground. The nobles and magnates who initiated the nuclear war, after turning the surface of the earth into a wasteland, hid themselves in the underground metropolises with all the wealth that they had exploited and looted. There, they enjoyed life. There was luxury and prosperity. There were even rivers and willow trees. As Boss Gold Tooth had said, everything was available. It was a paradise below the ground!

The descendants of the civilians, on the other hand, suffered from radiation, corrosion, and internal strife in the desert. They were called ‘demons’ and lived in hell under the scorching sun.

Crushing an underground metropolis, plundering its wealth, slaughtering the women who caused the nuclear war, and even burning the underground metropolis to the ground without doing anything to drive out the rich and powerful so that they could have a taste of the miserable life they were living right now… For such a purpose, countless devils were willing to sacrifice their insignificant lives.

The problem was that the underground metropolis where the rich and powerful lived was not something that could be broken through by the insignificant lives of the devils.

Before the nuclear war, the ‘superiors’ had been in control of the most cutting-edge force on the planet. In the collapsed world where order was lost after the nuclear war, they had captured countless ‘experiments’ and conducted all kinds of brutal new weapons research. As it turned out, a lot of super weapons far beyond their time had been developed. The new weapon development systems that were built on piles of bones were known as ‘Armageddon Technology’.

The underground metropolis that had been armed and protected by the ‘Armageddon Technology’ was definitely not something that the automatic rifles of the devil race could breach through.

Moreover, they could not even get close to the entrance of the underground metropolis. Above every underground metropolis was a military zone of thousands of square kilometers. Drones and automated killing machines were patrolling the area nonstop. There were also electromagnetic cannons and prismatic towers buried in the sand and the wasteland. Even the main battle tanks could be burnt to ash. Dealing with the devils was like killing a chicken with a sledgehammer.

Even Barret, the leader of the Citigroup and the leader of the Gold Teeth Brotherhood, wouldn’t be able to break through an underground metropolis even if he led all the devils in the entire Furious Blood Wasteland. Even a seven-year-old would understand the logic.

Therefore, despite Boss Gold Tooth’s thunderous and passionate declaration, the residents of the tombstones were rather indifferent. It was just that nobody dared to question or refute Boss Gold Tooth’s brutality just now.

Even Bai Xiaolu, who was being stepped on by Boss Gold Tooth, didn’t think much of it. She thought to herself, “Is this the level of the legendary Boss Gold Tooth, Barete, who actually wants to break into the underground city with the advantage in numbers? What’s the difference between this and a moth darting into flames?”

The gold-toothed leader grinned. He let go of his right foot that was on Bai Xiaolu’s chest, but he immediately switched to his left foot and changed to a more comfortable position, continuing to bewitch her.

Yes. Under normal circumstances, the devils on the ground would not be able to break into the underground city. He had been the dominator of the Furious Blood Wasteland for more than ten years. He wouldn’t ask his brothers to die for nothing just because he didn’t understand such a simple logic.

However, what if a war broke out between the ‘Underground Clan’ of different forces?

Wars changed almost everything, but they never changed the people who started them.

The only thing that mankind had learned from history was that mankind would never learn any lessons.

It was because ‘learning a lesson’ and ‘learning a lesson’ were often different.

It was the rich and powerful who ‘learned a lesson’.

But it was the filthy, ignorant, inhuman ‘demons’ who learned their lesson.

Therefore, wars never stopped. Wars never changed.

Although only a few decades had passed since the era of global nuclear war, a new war had broken out not long after new forces were born in the broken national and social systems.

Right now, the Underground Clan was divided into two forces—the ‘Alliance’ and the ‘Contract’. They did not have clear racial and national boundaries, but they were engaged in small-scale, low-intensity, but extremely brutal, conflicts in the underground metropolis that looked like countless chess pieces.

Occasionally, when dozens of underground metropolises under the name of ‘Alliance’ or ‘Contract’ were connected, and the tactical communication network between them was finally established, a large-scale battle would be initiated, too, in an attempt to absorb and transform more enemy underground cities.

At this moment, in the northeast of the Furious Blood Wasteland, an “Autumn Offensive” between the Alliance and the Alliance was taking place.

“The name of the underground city is ‘New Gold Mountain’. It is only two days and one night’s journey from Tombstone Town to the northeast. It is one of the last and largest underground metropolises of the ‘Alliance’ in the Furious Blood Wasteland. It is also the main target of the ‘Agreement’!”

Boss Gold Tooth roared, “Over the past half month, the unmanned bombers and train cannons of the ‘Contract’ have been bombarding the ground of the ‘New Gold Mountain’. All the alarms, sentry posts, and railgun towers have been smashed! Also, the ‘Contract’ has drilled through the thick rock stratums that protect the ‘New Gold Mountain’ with the ‘new underground bomb’ that they just developed and paved the way to the ‘New Gold Mountain’!

“Right now, the top of the ‘New Gold Mountain’ is riddled with holes. There are almost a hundred roads for us to march on. We can make the best use of our advantage in numbers!

“The soldiers of ‘New Gold Mountain’ have either been transferred to the frontline or blown up in the continuous bombardment. It is an unguarded city and a naked woman!

“The ‘Autumn Offensive’ between the ‘Contract’ and the ‘Alliance’ will take a long time. The main force of the two parties, especially the ‘Alliance’, will be stalled in the front line. Nobody will expect that the Demon Race will march out from behind and attack the underground metropolis of the ‘Alliance’. Even if they do, they will not have the time to deal with us. If the ‘Contract’ wins—according to the current situation, it is very likely that they will not be held responsible at all!

“What do you think? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Do you dare to do it or not? Speak. Are the devils of Tombstone Town rotten? Speak!”

There was nothing but silence.

The residents of Tombstone Town looked at each other in bewilderment.

Although they had dreamed of storming into the underground metropolis to plunder and take revenge, their fear of the rich and powerful had already been etched into their bones. The war between the ‘Alliance’ and the ‘Contract’ was like the collision of two giant beasts. It seemed that cockroaches and mice such as themselves could not get involved.

“Promise him.”

His brother suddenly said to Bai Xiaolu in his heart, “Sign up. I’ll be the first to sign up.”

“What?”

Bai Xiaolu was dazed. She stammered, “Attacking the underground city will kill us!”

“We are going to die anyway. I can feel the cold killing intent of the guy. Even if we don’t agree, he has a way to drive all the residents of Tombstone Town to be cannon fodder.

His brother said calmly, “Besides, this ‘Gold Tooth Boss’, Barete, might not be fighting alone. If my guess is correct, he should be a ‘servant’ of the ‘contract’ and one of the links to the Autumn Offensive. Therefore, the odds of success are very high.

“Servant army?”

Although Bai Xiaolu was weak, she was not stupid. She immediately realized what was going on when her brother pointed at her. “Are you suggesting that the ‘contract’ is supporting Boss Gold Tooth’s Citigroup?”

“Of course, although the apocalyptic technology of the Underground Clan is advanced, there are too few of them. In the world of extreme pollution after the nuclear war, every healthy human being without the slightest mutation is a valuable asset. Neither the ‘Alliance’ nor the ‘Contract’ are willing to let a ‘Underground Clan’ die in vain. Therefore, they are all raising a large batch of demons as their lackeys, claws, and servants. The wars are mainly fought by the lowly cannon fodder, just like all the previous wars.

The elder brother said, “Right now, the ‘Alliance’ and the ‘Association’ are engaged in a fierce battle on the frontline. Both sides are consuming a lot of resources. For the ‘Association’ of the attackers, it is definitely not in their favor if they cannot break the stalemate. It will be terrible if the ‘Alliance’ comes back to themselves and sends a lot of troops from somewhere else.

“If a harassing force can attack the ‘New Gold Mountain’ from the rear of the ‘Alliance’ at this moment, a lot of soldiers of the ‘Alliance’ will be stalled, which will create opportunities for the ‘contract’ in the frontline.

“Do you think it was a coincidence that Barrett, the leader of the Gold Teeth Brotherhood, showed up and proposed such a plan?

“This… Brother actually knows so much information!”

Bai Xiaolu was surprised. “How is that possible?”

“In fact, you know that, too.

A smile appeared in his brother’s brain. “News brought by the caravans and travelers from various towns, bits and pieces of information in the pubs of Tombstone Town, the bounties posted on the ‘blood wall’, and the howling wind in the desert. You will hear everything if you listen carefully.

“Besides, such things don’t need to be analyzed at all. You can tell just by looking at the equipment of the Citigroup. Huh. Is such standard equipment armed to teeth really something that can be obtained by occupying an abandoned military base? Let’s just say that he has really occupied a military base. If he doesn’t have a backer, he will be destroyed by the ‘Alliance’ or the ‘Contract’ immediately!

“However, it doesn’t matter whether he is the leader or a lackey. What does it have to do with us? We just need to survive.

“Hurry up and sign up. Even if you don’t, he will still force you to go. Chances are that he will even put explosive necklaces on you. The situation will be even worse. Even if he doesn’t take away everyone in Tombstone Town, we will still fall into the hands of the Heaven Wolves Gambling Den. Do you think we can survive?”

“But…”

Bai Xiaolu hesitated. “What about my sister? She is still waiting for our medication in the village.”

“It can’t be helped. We don’t have any money or medication right now. We can only hope that she can hold on.”

The brother said, “When we are in the battlefield, we will have the opportunity to run away in the chaos. By then, we will be able to find a military medical kit, or even a portable automatic diagnostic treatment machine in ‘New Gold Mountain’. There will be hope for our sister and all the children in the village.”

Bai Xiaolu was dazed for a moment. Determination beamed out of her delicate face.

“I’m going!”

Hugging the thigh of Barret, the Gold Tooth Boss, he screamed in his childish voice, “I believe in Boss Gold Tooth. I will follow Boss Gold Tooth to the death and conquer the ‘New Gold Mountain’. I will… fight for water, food, and women!”
