Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

Chapter 408: Question of Nuclear Weapons



Unlike most of Europe, the military in the two countries managed to maintain a strong military remnant when the outbreak occurred.

The war was interrupted as both sides immediately began killing their soldiers when they showed any sign of zombie mutation.

"Imminent Nuclear disaster?" Xiaoyun murmured as he read to the next page.

He immediately realized how serious the situation was as the next few lines showed a detailed statement regarding Nuclear warheads.

The military remnant in Russia was potentially thinking of using tactical nukes to fight against the giant mutant in Minsk.

Fortunately, it was canceled at the last second by the military for an unknown reason.

Still, it alerted Xiaoyun, who began to consider all the nuclear weapons on Earth before the outbreak.

With the central command mostly collapsed around the world, the fact that nukes were hiding somewhere scared him a little.

"Where are the Nuclear stockpiles in the country?" Xiaoyun wondered as he realized how useful it would be, even if he didn\'t use it.

Nuclear deterrence alone would be enough to deal with his biggest potential enemy in the Northernwest Military in ever attacking him.

Not wasting any time, Xiaoyun took out his phone and called Yiming.

"Hey, Yiming, you there?"

"Yeah, I\'m here. What are you calling me so late for?" Yiming grumpily asked.

"Do you know any nuclear weapon near us? Like a missile site of some sort?"

"How the hell am I supposed to know? It\'s a government top secret. I\'m only a major before the outbreak."

"Shit... I need to talk to you tomorrow before we start the military reform."

"Okay. I\'m going back to sleep."

As Yiming hung up the call, Xiaoyun turned his attention back to the document.

The rest of the boxes were mostly smaller factions under military control, ruling across the three countries in the region.

Unfortunately, the thing he wanted to see wasn\'t in that box, as there were no notes regarding Central Asia or the Far East of Vladivostok.

Besides that, Xiaoyun moved to the second last box, which was labeled with the word United States.

Much to his disappointment, all of the information was with the label one or two years ago.

Still, it was better than no information as he began reading the detailed account of what happened across the ocean.

Just like most regions around the world, America had devolved into different cities and factions fighting for power.

Although much of the military was actually relatively unscratched, the entire government had collapsed.

It was just pure unluckiness as all three branches had turned or were bitten by zombies, leading to a disorganized effort to maintain stability.

A few weeks after the outbreak, most of the military stations in Europe flew back to the United States.

Yet some of them flew back to Europe, which is how this group of foreigners obtained information on America.

Interestingly enough, a keynote that Xiaoyun found was the fact that shipping between continents was impossible.

It wasn\'t because of a compass malfunction or because nobody wanted to do it.

Instead, it was because sea mutants attacked human ships, just like the one that Xiaoyun\'s harbor had faced.

With the American\'s box out of the way, only one last box remained, simply labeled mutants.

Unlike what he expected about that giant mutant in a European capital, it was about zombie mutants.

Most of them were familiar to the ones that he had experienced in China, but some were unique, like a zombie that could use a sound wave attack.

"I guess this is all the information..." Xiaoyun murmured as he put the last document back into the box.

With four boxes filled with documentation, he began to consider whether he should have it recorded in the military information.

In the end, he dragged all four boxes into his closet, not wanting to spread panic on something that was extremely far away from them.

The next day...

Despite Xiaoyun only sleeping for four hours, he was rested enough to wake up and go downstairs.

Nobody was up yet, as it was only six o\'clock in the morning.

As he headed over to the guest room, he knocked on Kate and Anna\'s room.

After waiting for a bit, the door finally opened.

"I want to talk to you two about something."

Anna didn\'t hold the door back, so she opened it all the way, letting him come inside.

They looked curious, as if they were wondering what Xiaoyun wanted to talk about so early in the morning.

"You two realized what happened in Europe, right?" Xiaoyun asked.

Both girls nodded, as they were the ones who wrote all the notes and translations.

"I\'m sure you guys won\'t spread the news. But I just wanted to make sure, don\'t tell it to Yuqi or anyone else."

"Even Leyan?"

"Even Leyan. No one except Yezi and me... I\'ll tell Yiming later, but that\'s beside the point."

Both girls nodded again, zipping their mouths shut.

"Great. You two had gotten all the information from those Europeans, right?"

Seeing them nodding again, Xiaoyun smiled.

"Okay. Can you two bring a few workers with you to help them refuel their plane? The soldiers are going to be a little busy today."

"Sure. I actually have a few engineers who used to be airport maintenance crew." Anna spoke up this time.

"You really just going to send them back?" Kate asked as if she looked a little surprised by Xiaoyun\'s action.

"Why wouldn\'t I? They already fulfill their duty. I\'m not going to break my promise over something so small."

Both of the girls seemed to approve of his decision, as they didn\'t question it any further.

"Ahem, then I\'m going to go back to——"

Before Xiaoyun could finish talking, Kate suddenly held onto his hand.

"I... I want to do it."

Both Anna and Xiaoyun froze, as they didn\'t expect her to say something so lewd out of nowhere.

"Right now?" Xiaoyun asked to make sure he heard it right.

"Right now... I haven\'t done it for so long, okay? I\'m just getting a little frustrated after what we saw yesterday morning."

Seeing Kate genuinely want to do it so badly, Xiaoyun\'s heart softens as he prepares to say yes.

But before he could, Anna\'s face was already blushing red as her mind flashed back to what happened a week ago.

"Ahem, can you two do it somewhere else? I want to sleep for a little bit longer——"

"Come on, Anna, didn\'t you promise Leyan that you\'re going to marry Xiaoyun sooner or later?"

"I-I never said that," Anna argued out loud as she shyly looked down to the ground.

"Really? Then I guess you just shot my boyfriend for no reason, then? I never knew you were this cold-blooded."

Anna didn\'t fall for Kate\'s taunt as she knew what she was trying to do. Still, her mind was starting to be swayed a little.

"Don\'t guilt trip me. That was two different things. He already accepted my apology."

"Let\'s be real. Xiaoyun is the kind of person who accepts any apology. In your heart, do you think just saying sorry and giving a gift is enough?"

Seeing Anna hesitating and not flat out leaving the room, Kate knew her plan was starting to work.

"You want to know what you can give as a real apology to him? Your body is the only thing valuable to him that he cares about——"

"I never said that——"

"Shush, Can you not see I\'m trying to help you?" Kate looked back at Xiaoyun in anger.

All Xiaoyun could do was awkwardly laugh as he didn\'t expect his morning meeting to end up like this.

After a short silence, Anna finally made her decision.

"Not today. I don\'t want to lose my first time like this——"

"Come on, you say that every time. You can\'t just keep on stalling like this. Just give him something."

With Anna sitting in silence again, Kate could feel she was about to give in to temptation.

"Anna, just ignore her. You can make up your mind whenever you feel like it. And no, Kate, I don\'t need your help."

"You! Whatever, I\'m going back to sleep instead."

As Kate jumped back into the bed, Xiaoyun turned his attention back to Anna, who still hadn\'t said anything.

"Don\'t let others pressure you into something you\'ll regret. I know you care a lot about your faith and stuff——"

Before Xiaoyun finished talking, Anna suddenly got up from her bed and kissed him on the lips.

"Thank you... I-I will give you an answer next week."

Anna quickly shoved Xiaoyun out of the room, then slammed the door shut right before his face.
