Chapter 207: The Great War is Imminent

Alex's dedication to revenge is beyond many people's imagination.

With the support of the Human Federation and CRM, neither the Masonic bases scattered across the European continent nor the Black Watch troops sent by the Freemasonry hierarchy to pursue Alex could stop Alex's attack.

Because they are no longer facing Alex alone, in addition to the protagonist who acts as a decoy to attract everyone's attention, Leon's most powerful warriors, the members of the Stinger Squad, have been lurking not far from Alex, ready to meet him.

And with the high-explosive charges provided by the Blacklight Legion, Alex can no longer break through the walls and open the entrance to the Masonic base without having to bother as before.

He can directly blow up the Freemasonic wall with a bomb, and then control the zombie monsters around the base to encircle and suppress everyone in the base.

As a result, as Alex obtained more and more information, and with the efforts of everyone, more and more Freemasonic bases were destroyed in the hands of the monsters he created.

The power of teamwork is far more powerful than individual action.

In just three months, there were more than 30 Masonic bases and nearly 50,000 Freemasons throughout Europe, who died in the destruction caused by Alex.

Although Freemasonry is numerous, this is almost half of their population.

Such a big damage also successfully attracted the attention of all the Freemasonry leaders, who condemned Dr. Manhattan's mistake and released such a monster, causing them huge losses, and on the other hand, they were also lamenting the strength of the alien life gene, wanting to eliminate Alex, an unstable factor, and speed up the research of extraterrestrial meteorites.

Because of this, the Black Watch Force, which was specially formed to deal with Alex, has also successfully increased from a few hundred in the past to nearly a thousand now.

Although Alex's actions are very secretive and he rarely survives every time he breaches the base, as the troops pursuing him lose more and more, the commander of the Black Warden can gradually determine that there must be a group of Alex's allies in the European continent.

During this time, Dr. Manhattan, who had been under pressure from the top of the Freemasons, also defied public opinion, and after sacrificing nearly thousands of outstanding young people within the Masonic Society, he successfully created another super mutant that could successfully adapt to the genes of alien creatures, a white young man formerly named Wilson.

This is a die-hard member who grew up in Freemasonry and has been brainwashed and educated, although the alien genes have made his personality change drastically, full of aggression and destruction, and his intelligence has also declined, but it is still barely a powerful weapon that can be controlled.

Dr. Manhattan believed that with this secret weapon, as long as Alex showed a flaw, they would be able to gather the Black Watch forces and cooperate with this weapon to successfully eliminate this threat from outside Freemasonry.

………………

And while Alex and the Black Light Force were dealing with Freemasonry, the two organizations of the Human Federation and CRM were not idle.

In order to be able to win the upcoming war, Lyon even traded a part of the finished products of miniature nuclear batteries and miniature nuclear bombs to CRM, both to enhance the combat effectiveness of allies and to exchange for Z elements in their hands.

Although this will be detrimental to the future interests of the People's Federation, the most powerful enemy is coming, and they must hurry up to build more miniature nuclear batteries and miniature nuclear bombs.

In fact, Leon knows very well in his heart, don't look at the relationship between the two organizations now, they are not bad, and they can even share resources and technology, but once Freemasonry is eliminated by them, without this external pressure, no one can say for sure when the relationship between the Federation of People and CRM will become an enemy in the future.

There are no eternal enemies, and there are no eternal friends.

But that's something that needs to be faced in the future, at least for now, and the Human Federation and CRM must work together to defeat the formidable enemy of Freemasonry.

It turns out that working together does make both sides stronger.

With the relationship between the two sides becoming closer and closer, the exchange of technology and talents, and the complementarity of resources and equipment, there has been new progress between the people's association organization and CRM.

The first is the expansion of the army.

This battle with Freemasonry, unlike any previous battle, is a war that truly determines whether the Human Federation and CRM can continue to exist in this world, and determines the life and death of everyone.

Whether it was Lyon or General Rus, as supreme leaders, they all gave the order for mass conscription.

In the organization of the People's Federation, from the date of the order, all residents of the Federation, members who have reached the age of 18 and have not yet reached the age of 50, unless they suffer from disability or serious illness, must set aside one day a week for military training in accordance with the organization's arrangement.

While not all people are required to join the military, this form of mass training is intended both to increase the combat effectiveness of all civilians and to prepare for future mass conscription.

In addition to this daily training, Lyon has improved the welfare of the soldiers, and no longer strictly implements the strategy of elite soldiers as in the past, and appropriately relaxes the threshold for recruitment.

Get more school-age residents to join the army and fight to defend their homes.

Thanks to the high salary, high threshold and high social status of the army in the past, when the military department opened the threshold for conscription, a considerable number of adults immediately joined the army, so that the number of recruits within the organization quickly increased to 5,000.

The most active of these are the Federation residents who have just migrated to the Human Union base.

Unlike the official residents who have been rooted in the People's Federation for many years and have their own property and family foundations, this group of new members of the Federation is generally in a relatively poor stage.

After all, the inhabitants of the Federation are richer than they are, and their own wealth has been depleted by the relocation from distant Union territories.

And becoming a soldier with money and status is a very good way for them to improve their status.

In addition, in order to make up for the labor gap lost to the base due to conscription, Lyon issued a new decree.

He allowed residents of the People's Union strongholds in other states to join the army, and once they joined the army, they would have a house given to them by the organization, allowing their families to live in Georgia, the center of the People's League.

This is something that many of the inhabitants of the small strongholds scattered in other states are very eager for.

After all, the happiness of a small base with only a few hundred people is very different from that of a large base with various civilized conditions such as medical care, education, entertainment, commerce, etc.

In addition to these two main policies, the organization has implemented a number of complementary policies.

For example, to promote the evil of Freemasonry and let everyone know that they are behind the destruction of the world.

Praise the bravery and greatness of the soldiers, and increase the pride and courage of the soldiers.

Residents are encouraged to have more children, provide various welfare benefits, and expand the population of the People's Federation.

Publicize the progress made by the People's Federation in various fields to the residents at the bottom and improve their self-confidence and sense of responsibility.

In short, under the spur of a series of positive policies, in the face of strong external enemies, the residents of the People's Federation have burst out with greater motivation and courage, and their strength is also rapidly increasing.

And the big war is imminent, in order to win over his allies, General Ross of CRM is also very generous to open his arsenal, agreeing to let the United Consortium buy these weapons at a fairly low price.

As a former Ameritian military general, General Ross knew a lot about the military's secret bases, and the CM Civic Republic had far more weapons and better equipment than the other survivors from the beginning.

Although they are numerous and their equipment is consumed very quickly, the emaciated camels are bigger than horses, and they have more weapons than the United Nations of Georgia and Florida, and it can even be said that there are more weapons than people.

This is one of the main reasons why they have been able to compete with Freemasonry North America in the past, but unfortunately, as the fungal virus spreads, the contamination of the fuel also makes the CRM lose this huge advantage.

Although in the past year, with the help of the fuel evolution technology provided by the Human Federation, they have resumed the use of some weapons.

However, the huge amount of energy required to purify the fuel still greatly limited their combat effectiveness, which is probably one of the reasons why General Ross was willing to sell these weapons to Leon at a low price.

And just when the People's Federation and CRM were working together to develop their strength, Alex, who was far away on the European continent, finally encountered that long-planned ambush.

Just as Alex set his sights on a base that he had been observing for a long time, he successfully destroyed the walls of the base, controlled tens of thousands of zombies outside the base, and rushed into the base to prepare for slaughter.

Unbeknownst to Alex, this base was a trap set for him by Dr. Manhattan.

As his attack began, a large number of Black Watchman troops, who had already been lying in ambush dozens of kilometers away, rushed in his direction in tanks and planes with all kinds of weapons.

And the super mutant named Wilson, who had been gearing up to eradicate Alex for Freemason, also came out of his hiding place.

However, Alex, who is immersed in the thrill of killing and revenge, is not aware of this.

As he had done in the past, he burst into the crowd and went on a killing spree, controlling more and more zombies to storm the base, slaughtering any Freemasons he saw.

Even taking the time to devour some Masonic officers who seem to be of relatively high status, trying to get some inside information about other bases or Freemasons from their memories.

Soon, however, after devouring several Freemasonic officers in succession, Alex discovered the anomaly.

An unknown force rampaged through his body.

Although his actions and combat effectiveness were not lost, his recovery ability was greatly limited, as if that force had greatly inhibited his vitality.

Although he was still extremely powerful and able to quickly recover from the damage on his limbs, this situation that had never happened before also brought Alex, who was immersed in killing, back to some of his senses.

He immediately informed the members of the Stinger team lurking around him about his anomaly, and prepared to retreat first, and after figuring out the situation, he would take other actions.

However, Dr. Manhattan, who had been planning for a long time, and even sacrificed a base as bait, how could he easily let Alex leave.

From the beginning of the battle, in just a few minutes, Wilson, who was in ambush outside the base, had already arrived here as fast as he could.

The two special mutants with alien genes, the moment they first met, it was as if they had some special induction, figuring out the identities of the two parties and confirming their hostile relationship.

Any words are superfluous at this moment, just a moment of effort, and the two humanoid monsters turned into an afterimage and strangled together.

Huge strength, agile speed, and sharp claws make their battles extremely dangerous, savage and ferocious, even reaching the zombies and soldiers who are close to them, turning all those unlucky eggs into stumps and broken arms.

And as the fierce battle between the two escalated, although Wilson was weaker than Alex in terms of combat experience and ontological ability, with the advantage of resilience, this humanoid monster belonging to Freemasonry gradually gained the upper hand.

When the sharp claws of the two men stabbed each other in the chest during a fierce exchange, Wilson, who had the advantage, couldn't help but show a smug smile.

He controlled the tentacles in his body, resisting Alex's devouring ability, and couldn't help but taunt:

"Alex, you're so stupid, we all know you're always fond of devouring those officers, aren't you going to do something out of this?"

"The inhibitory agent researched by Dr. Manhattan can inhibit our ability to recover, and you can't get rid of its effects in forty-eight hours."

"It's hard to fly, all the people here have been injected with this potion, and the more you devour it, the more serious the impact will be."

Alex threw Wilson out with a punch that halted the fight between the two men, dodging the attacks of the Black Warden soldiers around him while tearing them apart with his claws.

Although the pace of the battle had put him at a disadvantage, Alex still didn't have any flinching expression on his face, he shook off the minced flesh and dirty blood stained on his paws, and his hoarse voice was right, and after recovering, he stood up and said to Wilson:

"You're just a bad imitation of me, and you're still ashamed to think you're going to win."

"You'll find out later, you're just a bunch of garbage like your teammates."

Just when Wilson was angry at Alex's words, the sound of many cannonballs falling suddenly appeared in the sky.

One of the sounds was very harsh, like the extreme high-pitched sound of a dolphin.

And when I heard this sound, I noticed that there were several cannonballs in the sky that the President of the General Assembly had specially mentioned, and they were flying slowly.

Alex couldn't care about pretending to be forced any longer, spotted an underground entrance, and rushed into it as fast as he could.

Having seen the power of this cannonball, he knew very well that if he stayed on the ground any longer, even he would be burned to ashes like anything on the ground.
