Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

Due to the severe cold, most animals had perished, and only cold-resistant sled dogs remained. They had become invaluable, serving multiple purposes. However, the sled dogs raised in Xu Family Town had been taken to help with tunnel digging, and the soldiers’ military dogs were kept indoors to protect them.

Though all were dogs, there was a clear difference between those with official duties and those without.

“There’s something wrong. Go check it out!”

The remaining soldiers quickly geared up, grabbing their guns and leading the dogs out of the snow huts.

“Woof! Woof! Woof!”

The barking echoed throughout the small town. Hearing the commotion, the villagers cowered in fear inside their homes, too terrified to step outside.

The soldiers soon discovered that several of the snow huts were missing their comrades, and there were bloodstains hastily covered on the ground.

“Enemy attack! We’re under attack!”

“Alert positions now!”

A squad leader reported the situation via radio. The well-trained soldiers immediately took defensive positions, guns at the ready, prepared for any threat.

But none of them noticed that the enemy they were preparing for was dressed just like them and standing right behind them.

Zhang Yi didn’t waste time on words. With a swift stroke of his sword, he killed two Special Forces soldiers in an instant. The Loong Roar Sword, forged from Adamantium, effortlessly sliced through their necks.

The others reacted quickly, spinning around and firing their guns. But Zhang Yi had already disappeared behind an ice hut.

He realized that the only distinguishing feature of the uniforms was the golden star on the shoulder, so he casually removed it. Then, with his ghostly movements, Zhang Yi vanished from their sight.

Before long, he infiltrated another squad from a different direction. With everyone tense and focused on the mysterious intruder, they all put on their tactical helmets. This made Zhang Yi even harder to spot—he blended in seamlessly, like a drop of water in the ocean.

“He’s wearing our uniform!”

A squad leader shouted through the radio, “Everyone, be wary of anyone near you!”

Thus, a bizarre scene unfolded on the snowy roads of Xu Family Town: soldiers pointing guns at each other, unsure if the person beside them was a comrade or an enemy.

“Follow my command and use the covert hand signal!” The squad leader was sharp, knowing that while the uniforms were the same, outsiders wouldn’t know the Special Forces’ signals. Sure enough, as everyone followed the signal in unison, Zhang Yi, who did nothing, was instantly exposed.

All the soldiers aimed their guns at him. Without any orders, they instinctively pulled the triggers!

Gunfire erupted like a torrential downpour. But to their horror, the bullets seemed to disappear into thin air as they neared Zhang Yi, vanishing without a trace!

“He’s Zhang Yi! That’s Zhang Yi!” The name sent chills down the soldiers' spines. This was the man who had caused them repeated losses and cost them over twenty comrades in a single battle!

Wasn’t he supposed to be hiding in the shelter? How did he get out, and why was he here?

Questions filled the soldiers’ minds, but there was no time to dwell on them. Their bullets had no effect on Zhang Yi. When they realized something was wrong and ceased fire, Zhang Yi sent the bullets flying back at them with a flick of his hand.

Though bullets didn’t work on Zhang Yi, they were still lethal to the soldiers. Even with bulletproof combat suits, the unrelenting hail of gunfire riddled the soldiers with holes, killing them in an instant!

The gunfire stirred Fatty Xu, who had been hiding at home, avoiding the harsh reality. He opened the window and looked out at the snow-covered streets, only to witness a scene all too familiar to him.

“Boss!”

Fatty Xu’s eyes widened in disbelief. He rubbed his eyes, thinking he was seeing things.

“There’s no mistake, that power—Boss is here!”

Fatty Xu felt a surge of emotion. “Is he here to take me away?”

Sometimes, a bit of confidence could make life much more pleasant.

Meanwhile, Zhang Yi continued his battle with the Special Forces soldiers. With their own bullets, he had already eliminated seven or eight soldiers.

The remaining soldiers hid behind the bodies of their fallen comrades, quickly taking cover in the snow huts. Among the crowd, Zhang Yi noticed two shadowy figures moving like ghosts. The sensation was all too familiar to him—it was the same ability as Liu Ziyang and the others. Cyborgs.

A squad leader named Liu Tao shouted to his team, “Stop shooting! His ability nullifies bullets! Use melee weapons!”

Hearing this, Zhang Yi’s lips curled into a mocking smile.

Nullifies human bodies? Are you sure about that?

It’s true that his spatial dimension couldn’t actively absorb living beings, but that didn’t mean close combat could hurt him.

In a split second, several Special Forces soldiers wielding military daggers charged at Zhang Yi from all directions! The two from the left front and right rear were clearly enhanced cyborgs, moving at lightning speed!

A glint of determination flashed in Zhang Yi’s eyes. His spatial gate could only open in one direction, making it tricky to face attacks from multiple angles. But he wasn’t alone.

Ignoring the rear attack, Zhang Yi opened a dimensional gate in front of him. Meanwhile, behind him, the two soldiers with daggers suddenly found themselves under a massive shadow!

With two massive paws, Hua Hua slammed them to the ground! When it came to speed, cats were second to none!

As for the two soldiers in front of Zhang Yi, they were quickly sucked into the spatial dimension. Zhang Yi shut the gate, and after a bit more time inside, they would be dead.

Behind him, Hua Hua, now in its giant form, picked up the two soldiers and casually crunched them in its jaws. Even enhanced cyborgs were too weak to face a true mutated beast.

The remaining soldiers were already terrified. Faced with such overwhelming power, they lost the will to fight and scattered in all directions.

Pursuit wasn’t Zhang Yi’s specialty. “Hua Hua,” he called.

Without needing further instructions, Hua Hua eagerly chased after the fleeing soldiers. Cats loved to toy with their prey.

Before long, anguished screams echoed from all directions of Xu Family Town. Blood and bodies littered the streets.

Zhang Yi had wiped out every single Special Forces soldier stationed in the town!

Wasting no time, Zhang Yi quickly found Liang Yue’s house, placing a chip and a phone card beneath her bed. After completing this task, he knew he couldn’t stay there much longer. He quickly left the room.

“Hua Hua, we’re leaving!”

The gunfire had likely alerted those across the river. In five minutes at most, Ling Feng and the others would be back. Zhang Yi had no intention of facing off against several powerful Superhuman captains.

Zhang Yi always played it safe, striking only when he had the upper hand!

Hua Hua returned to its smaller form, and the two quickly left Xu Family Town. They had taken a long detour to avoid detection when arriving, and they planned to do the same when leaving.

Just as they were about to retrieve their snow vehicle and depart, a familiar voice called from behind.

“Boss, wait up!”

Hearing this voice, Zhang Yi paused, frowning as he turned to see Fatty Xu panting as he ran over.

“What’s wrong with you? Chasing me down now could expose our connection!” Zhang Yi scolded.

Fatty Xu, gasping for breath, finally reached Zhang Yi and blurted, “Boss, you came here to get me, right?”

Zhang Yi shot him a look, letting him figure it out on his own.

Fatty Xu felt a twinge of disappointment but quickly smiled. “Haha, I knew you wanted to see me! Right?”

“Get back home. I don’t have time to chat. If they come back, we’ll both be in trouble,” Zhang Yi said indifferently.

Fatty Xu hurriedly added, “But Boss, you killed so many soldiers. When they return, they’ll be furious! I think it’s dangerous to stay here.”

Zhang Yi stared at him. “So, you’ve decided to leave with me?”

Fatty Xu’s ability was useful, and Zhang Yi considered keeping him as a subordinate.

Fatty Xu hesitated briefly. “I still want to take a few people with me.”

Zhang Yi’s expression grew impatient. “I don’t have time to waste here. Either come with me now, or figure out your own way to find me later.”

He tossed Fatty Xu a new phone. Through Liang Yue, Zhang Yi had learned why Fatty Xu hadn’t been able to contact him lately.

With that, Zhang Yi pulled out the snow vehicle, and with Hua Hua, he sped away from Xu Family Town.

Fatty Xu stood there, torn, watching the snow vehicle disappear into the distance. His cowardly nature told him that the death of so many soldiers would bring a massive storm. He knew he couldn’t stay here any longer. He had to leave!

Resolutely, Fatty Xu headed toward Xu Lili’s house. He needed to convince her to leave with him so they could find a safe place and live out their lives in happiness.

“Lili will definitely want to leave with me!” Fatty Xu thought confidently.

Soon, he arrived outside Xu Lili’s snow hut. But just as he was about to knock, he heard voices from inside.
