Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse With My Military System

Chapter 218 Need Help on the Options

mark walked up to richard in the command center. ”so, how did the strike help us?” he asked, looking over richard’s shoulder at the screen.

”it helped a lot,” richard answered, keeping his eyes on the display. ”but now i’ve got to figure out what to buy next. there are too many choices. can you give me a hand?”

”sure,” mark replied. ”what are your options?”

richard began to list the various missiles and warheads available in his system. he described each one’s capabilities and cost. mark listened, nodding occasionally, trying to make sense of the technical details.

ten minutes later, after richard finished listing the options, mark rubbed his chin, deep in thought. ”based on what you’ve said, each option has its strategic value. but we need to consider our primary objectives. we’re dealing with densely populated areas, so maximizing impact while managing resources is key.”

he paused, then pointed to one of the options. ”the rs-28 sarmat seems like a solid choice. its mirv capability allows for multiple target strikes, maximizing the impact per launch. this could be crucial in taking out large swaths of zombies in different areas simultaneously. plus, it’s long-range. advance countermeasures don’t mean much in the apocalyptic world as most of the defense systems of every nation are down.”

mark then shifted his focus. ”however, if we’re considering the versatility and rapid deployment, the minuteman iii stands out. its quick-launch capability means we can respond faster to changing situations. also, its 300-kiloton yield warheads are more than enough to handle high-density zombie populations.”

he tapped his chin, considering further. ”but don’t discount the df-41. its satellite-guided system offers precision, important for urban strikes where collateral damage may be a concern. its road-mobile platform also adds an element of unpredictability, making it harder for progenitor to anticipate our moves.”

mark took a step back, looking at richard. ”in terms of raw power, the trident ii d5 and the tsar bomba are tempting, but they might be overkill for our current needs. remember, we’re not just obliterating zombies; we’re also trying to preserve infrastructure for future rebuilding.”

finally, mark concluded, ”if i were in your shoes, i’d weigh the tactical flexibility and response time against raw destructive power. given our ongoing battle, quick response and precision might outweigh sheer force. so, i’d lean towards the minuteman iii or df-41. but the final call is yours, richard. what do you think?”

”well obviously, i’m going to lean toward an american-made icbm...but you haven’t told me your suggestions on the warhead. what warhead should i choose?” richard said.

mark nodded, understanding richard’s question. ”right, the warhead is just as important. considering our targets, we need something that offers high yield but also precision. you don’t want to just decimate the area; you want to ensure we’re hitting the zombie concentrations hard while limiting the damage to the surrounding infrastructure.”

he continued. ”the b83 could be a good match. it’s one of the most powerful in the u.s. arsenal, and its variable yield is a huge advantage. you can adjust the magnitude of the explosion depending on the size and density of the zombie horde. plus, being air-delivered, gives us more control over the point of impact. the w88 for the trident ii d5 also stands out. it’s compact, yet powerful, and designed for precision strikes. the advanced safety features are a bonus, though, in our current scenario, safety isn’t our biggest concern.”

he then focused on another possibility. ”the rds-37 might be a bit of an overkill, given its 1.6 megaton yield. but it’s a consideration if we ever encounter an extremely large horde or need a significant show of force. its design makes it effective for wide-area impact.”

”however, if you’re looking for something non-nuclear but still incredibly destructive, the foab is an interesting choice. it’s a thermobaric weapon with massive conventional firepower, useful for clearing large areas without the lasting effects of radiation.”

after a moment of silence, he added, ”my personal suggestion? go for the b83 for its versatility and power. pair it with a missile like the minuteman iii or df-41 for a balanced approach to firepower and precision.

richard nodded thoughtfully, taking in mark’s advice. ”sounds like a plan. i’ll buy them now.”

he checked the price on his system again and confirmed the purchase. the minuteman iii was priced at 45 million gold coins. the b83 came in at 40 million gold coins. richard executed the transaction, and the system confirmed the purchase with a simple notification: [purchase successful].

”okay, that’s done. we now have the minuteman iii and the b83 in our arsenal,” richard announced, checking his inventory. ”let’s see how it works.”

”you mean...you want us to set up the icbm now?” mark gasped, his eyes widening.

richard turned to face mark. ”do you not want to see how a b83 does in action?”

”well, i would be thrilled to see but i was just surprised that you want to use the moment you just purchased it.”

”i’m serious mark, i want to test it out right now,” richard insisted.

”very well, richard. for that, you’ll have to purchase specialized personnel that man and operate those systems so that we can set it up as quickly as possible,” mark advised.

richard nodded in agreement and immediately accessed his system to purchase the necessary personnel. ”i’ll buy the best in the field,” he declared, quickly navigating through the options.

after a few moments, he completed the process. ”i’ve hired them and will summon them on the ground.” n--o./v-)e)-l(-b.(1)-n

”once we have the minuteman iii and b83 operational, we’ll need to choose a target for the test. we should pick a location with a high concentration of zombies—”

”dhaka,” richard interrupted. ”let’s go with dhaka.”

dhaka is the capital city of bangladesh, a country located in south asia. known for its dense population, dhaka had been overrun by zombies, making it a prime target for testing the new weaponry.

mark raised his eyebrows. ”dhaka is one of the most populated cities in the world. if we strike there, the number of gold coins and experience points you can get...”

”i know, you don’t have to emphasize, mark,” richard said. ”let’s prepare the missile up and hit dhaka. china has already suffered, so let’s grant her a break.”
