The Ultimate War Of The Apocalypse-Chapter 661 - 654 The Manhole Cover Plan

"Report, Ram has already escorted Spark Squad to proceed, and the Angel Mercenary Corps has come to support and escort them together."

Yang Yi nodded, signaling he already knew, and after waving the messenger away, he turned to Grewatov and said, "Has wireless communication not been restored yet?"

"No."

Yang Yi turned back around, sighed, and said, "That’s not bad, the outcome is not bad. Honestly, I’m really surprised Gao Yuan survived, and I’m surprised that Spark Squad still exists."

Murphy, with a stern face, said, "That’s because you don’t understand the true strength of the Celestials. In front of the Celestials, the Serpent People are nothing."

Yang Yi pondered for a moment, then turned to Murphy and said, "You lead an elite troop, a troop you can trust, and pursue Xinghe."

Murphy was now a fanatic follower of Xinghe, and he was very willing to be by Xinghe’s side, so Yang Yi’s proposal was very tempting to him.

"But what about this place? If I leave, who will take charge here... do you think Larry can be trusted? The Serpent People’s mothership is about to descend here, what if the soldiers waver again?"

Yang Yi smiled and said, "Now, I don’t think anyone would mistake the Serpent People for the Celestials. I guess even if the Serpent People’s mothership stays here, they won’t make direct contact with those soldiers, right? Your presence here indeed helps me maintain better control of the situation, but don’t forget that Djibouti is no longer important now. Since the Serpent People’s mothership is staying here, Djibouti becomes useless. For Xinghe’s safety, take those you can trust and protect her, and leave now."

Murphy frowned and said, "If you also think that once the Serpent People’s mothership arrives here, the entire city and the people inside become useless, why not start evacuating everyone now? We still have a few hours, and we could evacuate a lot of people."

Yang Yi shook his head and said, "The Serpent People’s ships are still overhead, leaving now would be a forced breakout. Murphy, don’t forget this point. Don’t you think a mass exodus of people from here at the time of the Serpent People’s mothership’s arrival would raise their suspicions?"

Murphy frowned in thought, and Yang Yi said sternly, "That’s why the number of people leaving can’t be too many; only this way can we ensure that the Serpent People won’t launch an indiscriminate attack and wipe out everyone here. I thought you would have understood this point."

Murphy breathed out, lowered his voice, and said to Yang Yi, "You’re not planning to kill everyone, are you? Poseidon, don’t try to deceive me. I know you too well; you’re someone who will not leave any loose ends. And there are too many surrendered Sanitation Workers, you see them as a threat, right?"

Yang Yi spread his hands and said, "Yes, that’s why I want the Sanitation Workers to split from the Solar System, what are you thinking? Do you believe I could kill nearly a hundred thousand Sanitation Workers here? I’m just giving you a suggestion; you can decide what to do."

After a moment of contemplation, Murphy lowered his voice and said, "I’ll go protect Xinghe; she is indeed more important than Djibouti, more important than all the Sanitation Workers. Under the current circumstances, her safety is threatened, and she needs me."

After finishing, Murphy stood up and said to Yang Yi in a low voice, "You should understand one thing; the Sanitation Workers won’t betray the Celestials. Now, under Xinghe’s influence, the Sanitation Workers will become the backbone of humanity’s resistance against the Serpent People. Please understand this. I’m leaving, I’ll depart secretly. Goodbye."

Murphy left, and only Yang Yi and Grewatov remained in the office.

Waiting for the office door to close again, Grewatov said in a low voice, "Big Ivan has already entered secretly, and the two nuclear bombs are intact."

Yang Yi smiled and said, "You take Big Ivan and leave Djibouti immediately to catch up with Ram; you are no longer needed here."

Grewatov looked at Yang Yi, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head and said, "No, you’ve brought too few people; five people simply can’t handle it. This matter can only be dealt with by us personally. The Sanitation Workers are not trustworthy; they have betrayed humanity once, and they can betray humanity countless times. Betrayal is just a matter of once or countless times."

Yang Yi smiled and then he stood up, saying, "We have five people, that’s enough."

Grewatov looked at Yang Yi and said, "Can you place the nuclear bombs at two different locations? Can you take care of both? I think that detonating two nuclear bombs at the same spot isn’t as effective as setting them off at two separate places; the success rate could be higher."

Yang Yi didn’t speak further and gestured with his hand, "This is your own decision, then let’s do it."

Grewatov and Yang Yi walked out of the office side by side, traversing the long protective corridor of the underground shelter until they reached the entrance of the fortification. They then left the fortification and at a parked armored vehicle, met up with Big Ivan and Uri Young.

Tarta and Rostovsky were already on the armored vehicle, and upon seeing the two men arrive, Big Ivan didn’t waste words, he simply said, "How is it?"

"Ram has already escorted Gao Yuan and Xinghe away, and Nate has also arrived, bringing a force of tank armor with him, it won’t be too slow."

Big Ivan took a deep breath, then laughed, "Very good, excellent, this puts my mind at ease."

Yang Yi smiled and said, "We’ll unload the nuclear bombs, and then you two leave here and catch up with Ram. Remember to avoid the route they took—they’re too many monster corpses around there, which might be infected with the zombie virus."

While Big Ivan was still pondering, Yang Yi said indifferently, "Is there any use in having more people for this? The car has been prepared for you, leave now."

Big Ivan nodded, and he and Uri Young left the armored vehicle, leaving just Yang Yi and three Black Devils on the car.

Tarta let out a sigh and handed over a map, whispering, "The locations have already been chosen, four in total. The first one is in the southwest corner of Djibouti, where there’s an abandoned salt mine with a vertical shaft going down one hundred and twenty meters. According to what we’ve learned, the shaft is still there, perfectly intact. The second location is an American air force base with a waterless supply system well, the well is one-point-two meters in diameter, and the total depth is four hundred and eighty meters, though this well is in use, with a water surface seventy meters above ground."

Yang Yi took the map and looked at the marked points, saying, "Have you done an on-site survey?"

"No, but we just need a pit, and these two are the most suitable."

"Let’s go now, right now."

Tarta blew a whistle, and the armored vehicle began to move. At that moment, Yang Yi asked in a low voice, "Are the tanks ready?"

"Ready, two M1A2 tanks."

Yang Yi put down the map and looked at the two nuclear bombs inside the armored vehicle.

These two nuclear bombs would be placed inside the pits, then a tank would directly cover the opening. The moment the nuke detonated, under the effect of the extreme heat and velocity, the tanks would form a metal jet stream, flying towards the Serpent People’s mothership at speeds over ten thousand kilometers per hour.

This was the so-called "Manhole Cover Plan".
