147: Chapter 147 is over! Three hundred thousand people went to their deaths!

In a daze...

Chu Tian slowly opened his heavy eyes.

A strong smell of blood, mixed with the pungent scent of disinfectant, wafted into his nostrils.

He looked down.

His wounds had been carefully bandaged. A crude IV tube was connected to his arm, and dark red blood was being infused into his body drop by drop.

Chu Tian felt a pang of sorrow in his heart.

He knew that in this hellhole where people couldn't even get enough to eat, this bag of blood was definitely drawn by his gaunt teammates in the camp, who had forced themselves to give it up just to save him.

"Brother Chu! You're awake?!"

A cry of pleasant surprise came from nearby.

Lin Yao, a pale-faced girl with a ponytail, walked over quickly holding a basin of warm water.

Chu Tian struggled to sit up, vigorously rubbing his still-dizzy head.

"Yaoyao, what's the situation now?"

Chu Tian suddenly grabbed Lin Yao's wrist, his eyes urgent: "Where is our ore?"

"Those newly arrived red-clothed thugs didn't rob you, did they?!"

Hearing this, Lin Yao shook her head with a bitter smile.

"Brother Chu, don't worry. Those newcomers probably don't know quality when they see it!"

"They weren't interested in our little bit of stuff at all."

Lin Yao said while helping him wipe his sweat with a warm towel, "The brothers sent the ore into the processing furnace overnight."

"Calculating the time, that chariot should have finished its modification by now!"

Hearing that the vehicle modification was complete...

Chu Tian's originally dim eyes instantly erupted with a dazzling light.

"Quick! Help me go to the workshop to take a look!"

Chu Tian threw off the worn-out blanket and struggled to get out of bed.

"But Brother Chu, your injuries haven't healed yet!" Lin Yao stomped her feet in anxiety.

"I can't worry about that now!"

Chu Tian gritted his teeth, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, but with Lin Yao's support, he limped toward the reinforcement workshop at the back of the camp.

He pulled back the tattered canvas that shielded the wind.

Inside the reinforcement workshop, dozens of emaciated C-District refugees were gathered around a chariot, trembling with excitement.

And under those few dim searchlights...

An off-road chariot that had just finished its reinforcement and modification was parked quietly in the center of the area.

The vehicle's body was covered in a layer of thick and sturdy dark-gray armor, which shimmered with a cold metallic glint under the lights.

In front of the vehicle, a ferocious Super Alloy ram had been installed.

Although there was only this one, and although the welding work looked a bit crude...

This was the crystallization of the hard work of tens of thousands of Dragon Country players in the entire camp, traded for with all their resources and even countless lives!

"Success! We finally have a Super Alloy chariot!"

"This is great! With this vehicle, the next time we go out to search for supplies, we won't have to use our lives to fill the gap!"

The surrounding teammates wept with joy. Some even reached out with trembling hands to gently stroke that cold, hard alloy armor.

Looking at this chariot, a gratified smile finally appeared on Chu Tian's pale face.

His eyes reddened, and tears slid down his cheeks.

"Old Zhao, Old Li..."

Chu Tian clenched his fists tightly, silently reciting the names of those brothers who had sacrificed themselves.

"You didn't die in vain!"

"Even though we only have one alloy chariot, I, Chu Tian, swear that I will lead all the players of C-District to survive in this hell!"

Just as everyone was immersed in this hard-won excitement and hope...

Boom—!!!

From the sky outside, a deafening and terrifying roar suddenly erupted!

The ground of the entire Service Area vibrated violently.

The incandescent lights hanging in the workshop shook wildly, scaring everyone present into a sudden shiver as they all grabbed the weapons at hand.

"What's going on?!"

"What happened? Is it the foreign coalition from the Far East Grand Hub attacking?!"

"Impossible! This is a safe zone!"

Chu Tian's expression changed drastically.

"Quick, help me out to see!"

Supported by Lin Yao, Chu Tian stumbled out of the reinforcement workshop and looked toward the distant plaza.

At the edge of his vision...

That boundless ocean of red steel seemed like an ancient beast awakening from its slumber.

Three hundred thousand heavy red chariots started their engines all at once!

The roar of three hundred thousand super engines converged into a world-destroying sonic boom, soaring into the clouds and shaking the heavens!

The mist covering the sky was instantly blown away by the violent air currents.

"They... what are they trying to do?!"

Chu Tian's eyes widened as he stared intently at that murderous Red Wolf Army.

At the very front of the convoy...

That deep red heavy tank, which looked like a mobile fortress, let out a world-shaking roar, and its tracks began to turn slowly.

Immediately after, dazzling eerie blue energy chains radiated from the Red Wolf Tank and various command vehicles.

These blue energy chains perfectly linked the three hundred thousand chariots behind them together, forming an indestructible, unified battle formation.

The army was setting out!

Their target was the death exit of the Far East Grand Hub!

Seeing this scene, Chu Tian's face instantly turned deathly pale, and his heart sank to the bottom.

Crazy!

These people were absolutely insane!

"Quick!"

Chu Tian slapped his thigh frantically in anxiety, turning to shout at Lin Yao at the top of his lungs.

"Yaoyao! Quickly get someone to stop them!"

"Outside that Far East Grand Hub, those bastards from J-District and K-District are definitely lying in ambush, and there are even more terrifying high-tier magical beasts!"

"Even if they have three hundred thousand people, they're absolutely no match for those beasts at the Far East Grand Hub!"

Chu Tian was filled with anxiety, his eyes turning red with worry.

They were all Dragon Country players. Although this group of people in red were cold and selfish, with the air of arrogant nouveau riche...

He, Chu Tian, absolutely couldn't bear to watch three hundred thousand of his compatriots go to their deaths so mindlessly!

"Go and stop them!"

However, it was too late.

That red steel torrent, with an unstoppable and violent momentum, had already charged out of the Service Area's safety barrier without hesitation.

They plunged headlong into the peril-filled Far East Grand Hub!

Looking at the taillights of the convoy that had completely disappeared into the wind and sand...

Chu Tian slumped to the ground in despair, clutching his hair in agony.

"It's over... it's all over!"

Chu Tian's tears flowed uncontrollably as he punched the mud over and over again.

"Now my Dragon Country is going to lose another three hundred thousand players for nothing!"

Sigh!!!

But just as Chu Tian was feeling dejected...

At the tail end of the Red Wolf Army, a few chariots belonging to the Logistics Team's odd-job crew roared past not far in front of him.

The cold metallic light reflected off the vehicle bodies flashed sharply across Chu Tian's eyes.

"Wait! What is that?!"

Chu Tian suddenly raised his head, scrambling forward a few steps, his eyes widening in disbelief.

He pointed at the distant taillights, his voice trembling.

"Am I seeing things?!"

"That... that... mobility scooter that just drove past, was it covered in full Super Alloy armor?!"

Lin Yao hurried over to support him, sighing helplessly.

"Brother Chu, you must be seeing things due to blood loss."

Lin Yao comforted him with a bitter smile: "Super Alloy is such a precious strategic resource; there isn't even enough to go around for our main chariots."

"How could they possibly equip a mobility scooter with a full set of Super Alloy armor?"
