151: Monsters Unleashed
"Hmph! Just you? You think you're worthy of mocking me?" Qin Gang snorted disdainfully as he looked at Ikegawa Kazuo's corpse.
Immediately after, Qin Gang began walking toward the depths, as all the gold was stored at the very back. The storage ring only had two hundred cubic meters of space. One cubic meter of gold was worth about 18 billion RMB and weighed just over nineteen tons. The total gold reserves of the Neon National Bank were only a little over six hundred tons, which would only take up about thirty cubic meters of the storage ring.
For the remaining volume, Qin Gang planned to fill it with US dollars.
Qin Gang moved quickly. After the gold was packed, he filled another hundred and fifty cubic meters with US dollars. One cubic meter of US dollars was worth nearly a hundred million; the total gains this time were worth over 400 billion RMB. He had to abandon the rest; there would be a fierce battle soon, and the three of them couldn't carry several tons of cash while fighting.
When Qin Gang returned, he saw the ground around the Li Huaishan littered with the corpses of Special Warfare Police Officers.
"Did they launch a frontal assault?" Qin Gang asked.
"No, they came down from upstairs. They probably intended to make the upper floors their main point of attack, thinking we were short-handed. They must have spotted us. How are things on your end?" the Li Huaishan asked in return.
"A bountiful harvest, but the storage ring space is limited, so I couldn't take everything," Qin Gang replied.
"It's fine, we can just come back next time. Alright, the people outside have almost finished their setup. Let's get ready to leave and complete the task the boss gave us. Give me my equipment," said the Li Huaishan.
Qin Gang nodded upon hearing this, then waved his arm toward the ground. Immediately, a pile of equipment appeared on the floor.
Seeing this, the Li Huaishan and the Fourth-level Death Warrior stripped off their modern gear and picked up a set of black battle armor from the ground to put on. The armor was pitch black but reflected a metallic luster.
After donning the armor, each of them picked up a giant blade about two meters long and a metal shield roughly the height of a person.
"Phew! This equipment feels much more comfortable. This is the first time we've worn it since the boss made it for us," the Li Huaishan said, weighing the giant blade in his hand.
"This equipment is forged from the same high-tech materials used to build the war god tank. It's only because it's us; otherwise, a set weighing nearly a thousand jin would crush an ordinary person to death," Qin Gang explained as he changed his gear.
Qin Yang hadn't been stingy with the Li Huaishan and the others at all. They were already high-level combatants, and after consulting them, they had all chosen cold weapons as their combat style. To ordinary people, using cold weapons against firearms was foolish, but for these men who could already intercept bullets and shells with their bare skin, cold weapons were tools that could better unleash their combat power.
Thus, Qin Yang had the Weapons Factory's artificial intelligence, the white emperor, custom-make several sets of cold weapon equipment for them. The material used was cloud pattern alloy, the primary material for the war god tank. This material's greatest advantages were its light weight and extreme hardness; if ordinary tank alloy required a thickness of 30mm to withstand a tank shell, cloud pattern alloy only needed 10mm. Furthermore, at the same volume, cloud pattern alloy was more than twice as light as other alloys used for weapons and equipment.
As for why their equipment weighed over a thousand jin, it was naturally to maximize defense by increasing the thickness of the armor and weapons. Moreover, given the physical fitness of the Li Huaishan and the others, wearing a thousand jin of armor and weapons felt no different from wearing nothing at all.
Once they were fully geared up, the Li Huaishan grinned. "Alright, the show officially begins. I hope I can have some fun today!"
The Fourth-level Death Warrior and Qin Gang looked at each other, both revealing bloodthirsty smiles.
Ignoring the ordinary people crouching in the corner, the three walked out of the bank in a wedge formation, with the Li Huaishan leading and the Fourth-level Death Warrior and Qin Gang following closely behind.
Their attire still drew the attention of the survivors in the bank. They didn't understand why the three had changed into ancient-style battle armor; they didn't believe ancient armor could withstand modern firepower. However, in terms of appearance, the armor combined with those massive cold weapons looked quite impressive.
Arriving at the front of the bank's first-floor lobby, the Li Huaishan and the other two could clearly see the flickering shadows of the Neon Police Officers outside. A quick glance revealed no fewer than several hundred people, and every single one of them had their gun barrels pointed directly at the bank's main entrance.
"I'll go first, you two follow behind. We'll withdraw once we've had enough fun," the Li Huaishan said as he turned around. Then, he suddenly lunged outward. In an instant, even Qin Gang and the other felt a breeze brush past their faces.
In the next second, the Li Huaishan's figure had already appeared among a group of Neon Police Officers about fifty or sixty meters from the bank entrance.
Furthermore, during the Li Huaishan's sprint, several Neon Police Officers who blocked his path were directly smashed into a bloody mist by his terrifying speed and power. This scene instantly stunned everyone outside.
"Nani! Did someone just fly past?" a Police Officer further away asked his companion.
But he only saw fear in his companion's eyes. Before he could ask anything else, a giant blade swept across his waist in the next instant, cutting both him and his companion in half. The Police Officer's upper body fell into a pool of blood. The surge of adrenaline didn't let him die immediately; in the final moments of his life, he saw a monster clad in battle armor, wielding a giant blade and a heavy shield, wantonly slaughtering his colleagues. A casual swing of the giant blade sent several colleagues falling into pools of blood, while the bullets they continuously fired couldn't cause even a shred of damage to that monster.
Seeing that the Li Huaishan had already entered slaughter mode outside, Qin Gang and the other were not to be outdone. They both dashed toward either side of the Li Huaishan, beginning their own massacre of the enemies on the flanks.
"What kind of monsters are these?!!!" Fujita Yu, the Superintendent General commanding from the rear, stared wide-eyed at the footage sent back by drones in the command vehicle and asked in terror.
But no one on the scene answered him, because everyone else was also shocked by the images before them. In the footage, wherever those monsters went, it was like wind sweeping through dust. All the Police Officers were like wheat in a field, falling at the slightest touch without even causing a ripple. The firearms in the Police Officers' hands were like fire sticks; bullets hitting the enemies only produced a few sparks, completely unable to penetrate the armor. They could only watch helplessly as they were decapitated by giant blades or crushed by heavy shields.
"Contact the army for me! Fast, fast, fast! The enemies are monsters, they're not something we can stop!" Fujita Yu finally regained his senses after dozens of seconds and barked out orders.
"Hai!" The other high-ranking officials of the Metropolitan Police Department, startled by the shouting, responded hurriedly and rushed to make contact.
