Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

After setting up the explosives, Zhang Yi turned immediately. ”Let’s go. We need to get out of here now!”

As he walked, he pulled out several smaller explosives, attaching them to the doors of each room they passed.

Following closely, Liang Yue glanced at the end of the hallway leading to the Second Life Pod, where Chen Xinian lived.

“Why don’t we kill Chen Xinian? Capture the leader, and the whole West Hill Base would fall apart!”

Just thinking about how Chen Xinian’s orders had turned West Hill Base into its current nightmare filled her with hatred, especially since he had exploited her students, making her feel repulsed as a woman.

Without looking back, Zhang Yi replied, “Killing Chen Xinian would only lead to another taking his place.”

“Have you considered that the problem isn’t just one person, but the entire system at West Hill Base?”

Liang Yue opened her mouth to respond, but no words came. She couldn’t argue because Zhang Yi was right.

“This den of corruption needs to be destroyed,” Zhang Yi said coldly. “Otherwise, it’ll keep breeding evil.”

He moved onward, with Uncle You and Fatty Xu following.

The four hurried toward the Third Life Pod. Their behavior finally caught the attention of a few Special Forces Team members.

“Stop! Where are you going?”

One soldier pointed his gun at them.

As a Special Forces soldier, his sharp instincts told him something was off with these people, especially with a tabby cat following them. No one at West Hill Base kept pets—they had once, but pets eventually became protein sources.

If it weren’t for the power outage dimming the lights, they’d have noticed something wrong sooner.

But Zhang Yi never intended to hide his presence for long.

“Quadruple speed!” he commanded, instantly accelerating and firing a quick shot in return.

*Bang!*

The soldier’s helmet shattered, and he fell dead on the spot.

No need to hide anymore; Zhang Yi’s setup was complete. Even if the base had skilled bomb-disposal experts, they wouldn’t have enough time to disarm all the explosives.

Indeed, some explosives were decoys meant to divert attention.

“They’re not from the base!”

The fallen soldier’s death alerted the others.

Immediately, the soldiers raised their guns and aimed at Zhang Yi and his team.

“Dimensional Gate!”

Zhang Yi extended his right hand forward, opening the Dimensional Gate.

In the narrow corridor, the gate blocked all angles of attack.

Gunfire erupted, bullets raining down, yet none could breach the Dimensional Gate. Each round vanished into the other dimension.

Liang Yue couldn’t help casting a deep look at Zhang Yi. Observing his power from a Special Forces perspective, she had always found it formidable and hard to counter. Now, as an ally, his overwhelming defensive ability made her feel secure.

Then someone in the crowd recognized Zhang Yi’s ability.

“Spatial power—it’s Zhang Yi!”

The speaker, Shen Hong, had once followed Ling Feng in an attack on Zhang Yi’s shelter.

Recalling the ability’s nature, he shouted in panic, “Stop shooting! Scatter now!”

But it was too late.

Zhang Yi smiled slightly. “Full counter!”

The bullets absorbed by the Dimensional Gate blasted back out in an instant.

*Thud-thud-thud!*

The bullets tore through armor and flesh.

The seven or eight soldiers in front were shredded in seconds.

The soldiers behind had no room to escape, confined by the narrow corridor. Their only defense was hiding behind their fallen comrades’ bodies.

Amid the thunderous gunfire, Zhang Yi quickly began retreating.

As he backed up, he tossed dozens of grenades from the Dimensional Space, their pins removed.

Seeing the grenades, the soldiers’ faces went pale.

“Take cover!”

The grenades rolled along the corridor, hitting walls and the ground before a rapid series of explosions erupted.

Screams and shouts of agony filled the air as limbs flew, and blood splattered across the walls, painting them red.

“Retreat!” Zhang Yi ordered.

This place was no longer safe. If they got surrounded, even his Dimensional Gate would lose its effectiveness, as it only protected in one direction and couldn’t cover multiple angles.

Just then, the lights above flickered.

“The power system is almost restored.”

Zhang Yi frowned.

If West Hill Base’s systems came back online, it would make creating chaos much harder.

“Move, move, move! Get out of here!”

The group retreated swiftly.

But Special Forces members were already closing in.

News of Zhang Yi’s infiltration reached Ling Feng and Chen Xinian.

Chen Xinian immediately issued a death order: Zhang Yi must not leave—dead or alive, he wanted him found.

“Damn Zhang Yi, this time you came right to me! Let’s see how you fight me without that turtle shell protecting you!”

In his room, Chen Xinian powered up a backup generator.

Dressed in protective gear, he was flanked by bodyguards, each armed and ready to defend him.

Meanwhile, in the Second Life Pod, Ling Feng gathered his men, burning with rage, ready to settle scores with Zhang Yi.

“Let’s see you escape this time!”

Ling Feng’s eyes blazed with killing intent. Old grudges and fresh anger simmered within him, and he was determined to end things with Zhang Yi here and now.

But as they advanced, chaos erupted in the Second Life Pod.

People there noticed yellow explosive charges plastered everywhere. These bombs weren’t meant to destroy walls, but they would kill and deplete oxygen, causing asphyxiation.

“Deploy bomb disposal experts, now!” Ling Feng ordered before storming off to pursue Zhang Yi.

Nothing mattered to him now except killing Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi’s group fought their way back as they retreated.

Following Ling Feng’s orders, Special Forces and regular soldiers focused their efforts on stopping them.

Every exit was swarming with soldiers.

Zhang Yi opened the Dimensional Gate, absorbing their gunfire and firing it back, taking down many soldiers.

But the soldiers had been warned and tried to delay Zhang Yi and his team instead of attacking head-on.

They aimed to buy time for Ling Feng and the other top officers to arrive.

“Don’t worry about them—break through! We can’t waste time fighting here!”

Zhang Yi wanted to avoid a confrontation with the troublesome Superhumans.

“I’ll handle this!” Uncle You declared.

Activating his Superhuman ability, he grew in size, his protective suit tearing as he transformed into a towering muscular giant over two meters tall.

His massive frame nearly blocked the entire corridor.

Uncle You charged forward like a human tank, crashing into the soldiers blocking their way.

Bullets ricocheted off his body with a metallic clang, unable to cause any serious harm.

“Roar!”

With a mighty charge, Uncle You sent a dozen soldiers flying.
