Chapter 145: Treasures from Two Supply Crates
Ye Fan was stunned.
Two at once!
In the same place?
Is such an operation even possible?
He questioned Nana, and Nana immediately responded, "Sir, it's possible. There have been instances in the game where a supply crate respawned in the same location after being taken, but the odds are incredibly slim. You're just lucky, sir."
Ye Fan was speechless. It seemed his maneuver worked out.
He initially wanted to use this opportunity to give the lad some hard time, but luck wasn't on his side.
"Bring him back," he said.
Bi Jinbang piloted a helicopter to bring Shen Ruihui back from the mountains.
The Hero Level scout returned to Ye Fan's side, joyfully placing both supply crates in front of Ye Fan.
Ye Fan patted his shoulder in encouragement, then picked up the first supply crate.
Open!
In a flash, a Red Alert unit appeared beside Ye Fan.
Ye Fan turned around and saw a thick waist.
Looking up, he finally saw the unit's face.
It was definitely a person, but looked like a monster.
The height was about 2.3 meters, dressed in a set of heavy armor.
This armor was excessively thick, appearing metallic yet not quite.
One thing was certain, the bulletproof level of this armor surpassed any bulletproof vest in the world.
Ye Fan touched it; it was over ten centimeters thick.
Cool to the touch but somewhat elastic.
The face was covered too, with only eyes visible through bulletproof glass on the helmet, proving that it was still a person.
Walking, it made clanging sounds, and Ye Fan estimated conservatively that the person, combined with the armor, weighed over 500 pounds.
But the most shocking feature was not the armor, but the gun.
The gun was 1.5 meters long, with a massive barrel, looking larger and heavier than a Metal Storm.
There was an energy slot on the gun, with currents flickering inside.
Ye Fan was stunned for a long time before realizing what kind of unit this was.
Magnetic Storm Infantry!
In the game, Magnetic Storm Infantry is a special unit, one of the heavily armored soldiers.
Their weapon is not a standard firearm but a magnetic gun that can shoot powerful arcs of electricity.
Although its range is not as long as ordinary firearms, its destructive power is incomparable to average firearms.
Moreover, Magnetic Storm Infantry has strong defense capabilities against conventional infantry weapons, with their heavy armor providing significant protection.
However, this was not in the production list of the Qin and Han States; surprising that it appeared from a box.
And this real-life Magnetic Storm Infantry clearly was more powerful than in the game, the sheer size advantage alone was intimidating enough.
The Magnetic Storm Infantry saluted Ye Fan.
"Magnetic Storm Infantry Udyr reporting to the commander!"
Ye Fan returned the salute: "Udyr... are you a Qin Han person?"
"Yes!"
Ye Fan was never a narrow nationalist. Regardless of the ethnicity, they all belong to the people of this country; he had no bias.
Ye Fan stood on tiptoe to pat Udyr's shoulder: "Tell me about yourself."
"Commander, I am wearing a Red Alert black technology composite armor, capable of withstanding gun damage, including sniper rifle fire. This armor is also an insulator and fireproof. The electromagnetic gun in my hand can discharge 10,000 volts of electricity for three seconds, with a No-Star status allowing for twenty shots a day, with a firing range of forty meters. Each star upgrade increases firing range by twenty meters and firing quantity by ten times."
Ye Fan felt this Magnetic Storm Infantry was a bit strong.
10,000 volts of voltage, that's something no one can resist; even a one-second discharge can kill.
Ye Fan couldn't produce Magnetic Storm Infantry, but seeing this Magnetic Storm Infantry's situation, it's definitely stronger than in the game.
If it could be upgraded to Three-Star, this unit's electricity could sweep across the battlefield with a hundred-meter discharge.
Of course, these soldiers have weaknesses, such as slow movement and being easy targets for artillery and tanks.
But if allowed to get close, even tanks may bow to them.
Tanks aren't afraid of electricity, but the soldiers inside are.
A tank without soldiers to control it is just a pile of scrap metal.
"I must upgrade this soldier's star level!"
Ye Fan made a silent determination, feeling excited inside.
He glanced back at Shen Ruihui, who grinned: "Commander, are you satisfied with this supply crate?"
Ye Fan snorted, not wanting him to get too complacent: "It's alright."
"No problem, no problem, there's still the next one."
Ye Fan took the second supply crate.
"I just don't believe you can always be this lucky!"
Click~~~!
The supply crate opened, and a figure flashed past.
Another Red Alert Unit appeared.
Ye Fan turned around, and this one wasn't taller than him.
But his first impression was that this seemed like a fairy.
A woman.
In the post-apocalyptic world, female survivors are often seen as accessories by many.
Inherent weakness is something that can't be changed; they can't go out to kill zombies, making their value very low.
Human rights no longer exist; in the hands of some ambitious individuals, women's fates are very miserable.
Some are even treated as goods, bought and sold, given away at will.
If she's as unattractive as a dinosaur, that's fine, but if she's devastatingly beautiful, she won't have a day of peace.
And now, a great beauty has come out of the supply crate.
Zhuge Yunxue, Xiao Jing, and the others are all beauties, each with their dashing and charming presence.
But this woman was different, exuding a bewitching aura, the corners of her eyes slightly upturned, paired with a pointed chin and small mouth, giving one the feeling of seeing a fox spirit.
Yet her expression was cold, a blend of icy aloofness and seductive allure.
The uniform she wore couldn't conceal her shapely figure, easily leading men's thoughts astray.
She wore a small beret, saluting Ye Fan at once: "Spy Duanmu Xiaoyu reporting to the officer!"
Ye Fan was startled: "You're a spy?"
"Yes, I am a spy."
Ye Fan was all too familiar with the spy unit, an important part of Red Alert.
In the game, Ye Fan often used spy units.
Their main role was to disguise as the enemy and enter the opponent's core areas, like Barracks, Tank Factories, Mining Sites, etc.
Entering those areas would bring about a special effect.
That is, units produced by our side turn into One-Star battle units instantly.
They gain stars upon production, with no need for battle upgrades.
When Ye Fan played the game, he usually stole the enemy's barracks or something before mass-producing troops, which heightened the combat power of the units dramatically.
But the problem is, the spies in the game are all male.
Perhaps sensing Ye Fan's doubt, Duanmu Xiaoyu smiled and said: "Officer, the game is the game, and reality is reality. In fact, in real life, females are often better spy units. They can easily infiltrate the enemy due to their inherent advantages and obtain confidential information, even assassinating high-ranking officials—female spies are the top choice, often more useful than the strongest special forces."
"Moreover, spies are essentially operatives, proficient in the use of various firearms and languages. We're even experts in pleasing men, which male soldiers cannot match."
Duanmu Xiaoyu, with her cold yet enchanting fox-like demeanour, saying this, could indeed lead one's thoughts astray.
After hearing her words, the first thing Ye Fan thought of was Rashana.
That's an external organization, with Barracks and Tank Factories inside. Should he send Duanmu Xiaoyu to give it a try?
But Ye Fan was a bit uneasy.
After all, she's a delicate young lady and his subordinate. Even though what she said sounded convincing, Ye Fan had doubts about her professional skills.
Maybe sensing the officer's emotions, Duanmu Xiaoyu tentatively asked, "Officer, please don't worry. Even outside, we won't be taken advantage of. We all have special drugs on us that can induce hallucinations, making the other party think they succeeded when we hadn't actually lost anything....."
Ye Fan still remained silent.
Duanmu Xiaoyu added, "If you're really not reassured, would you like to test my skills? That could also prove my professional skills."
Ye Fan thought that might not be a bad approach.
Caring for and understanding subordinates' capabilities thoroughly would make it easier to trust them when sending them out.
Not understanding anything is irresponsible to subordinates.
Ye Fan wouldn't make such a reckless move.
Just as he was about to speak, Shen Ruihui, who had been watching silently, couldn't help but interject.
"Duanmu Xiaoyu, please mind your identity. What are you trying to do? Trying to use your spy tricks on the officer?"
"Who do you think the officer is? Is he one of those enemies outside you need to seduce?"
"Just honestly do your duty. Now that you've come out of the supply crate, serve the Dawn Army, and don't think about corrupting the officer with your crooked ideas! The officer won't fall for it, and we subordinates won't sit idly by either!"
Shen Ruihui spoke with a strong presence. As the Dawn Army's only Heroic Unit currently, his status was different.
When he spoke, others even found it hard to interrupt.
Duanmu Xiaoyu immediately recognized her verbal slip.
How could she use those tactics on the officer? What a blunder!
She promptly apologized to Ye Fan: "Sorry, officer. I'll never think that way again."
Shen Ruihui was overjoyed to hear Duanmu Xiaoyu's words and eagerly reported to Ye Fan.
"Officer, she's realized her mistake and won't dare again."
Ye Fan looked at Shen Ruihui for a long time, thinking he should immediately train a second Heroic Unit, one that must be stronger than Shen Ruihui.
