Apocalypse — Chapter 53: Summoning the Strangler Armored Vehicle

“People in the city, listen up! I am the founder of Jiangcheng’s Number One Survivor Shelter, the great and glorious leader of human survivors—Ma Chenbin!”

When the youth under layers of protection finished, the whole convoy burst into a cheer.

Through the Three-Eyed Raven, Xiao Yi could see Ma Chenbin’s whole face.

This man was about twenty-three or twenty-four. He wore his long hair parted in the middle. His looks were handsome, but there was a skull tattoo on the left cheek.

The air this man gave off was the standard ruffian second-generation heir.

His build was fairly good, though. Muscle knotted on his body. He looked very tall and burly.

And he should have trained martial arts. Otherwise, if it was only gym work, the proportions of the body would not have been this coordinated.

“Looks like these people’s brains aren’t working too well.” Shen Tingting said it with some contempt. Seeing this formation, she actually showed not the slightest sign of being afraid.

“This pack of people’s chuunibyou is a little too serious, isn’t it? What are they even doing?” Tang Ningning pushed her glasses up and said it with a laugh, like she was watching a monkey show.

“If you don’t court death you won’t die.” Li Wanning made the summary. In the eyes of the few of them, this pack of people putting on a formation this big to provoke Xiao Yi was simply looking to die.

Whether it was absolute confidence in Xiao Yi’s strength or absolute sense of safety in the City of Sin, the women actually all laughed as if none of this was their problem, even teasing a little.

They did not take a formation this big from these people seriously in the slightest.

“People in the city, listen up! I give you five minutes to lay down your weapons and surrender, open the city gate, and welcome our sacred and great liberation army. That way—and only that way—you might keep a dog’s life! Otherwise we will flatten your city! Not a scrap of armor left! Women as slaves. Men as zombie feed!” Ma Chenbin went on, arrogant, with something to lean on.

In their eyes, flattening this little shelter of Xiao Yi’s with their strength was simply easy!

A six-meter wall of cement brick and tile could not possibly take a full-speed hit from their mixer trucks, reinforced with rebar and thick wooden drill-heads!

Once they smashed the wall and that eerie giant crossbow on the wall, with the guns in their hands and their absolute numbers, they could absolutely crush anyone in this city!

This strength could completely flatten the eerie city in front of them!

This was a conquest and a slaughter!

Ma Chenbin said it to his subordinates like this, stirring and high. “VENI VIDI VICI!”

This was a line from the famous victory dispatch Gaius Julius Caesar wrote to the Roman Senate after defeating King Pharnaces II of Pontus at the Battle of Zela.

Translated into Chinese, it meant—I came, I saw, I conquered!

“Idiot!” Xiao Yi flipped these people off from far away.

“Bastard! You don’t want the face you’re given! Wait there and die!” Ma Chenbin roared into the megaphone, unable to contain his fury. “Everyone ready! Flatten this shelter for me! Kill every man inside! The women, all the brothers play together!”

“Kill! Kill! Kill!” The youths in the convoy burst into cheers one after another.

Xiao Yi could not be bothered wasting words with this pack of people. He turned, sprang off the wall-tower, and said to the System on an open stretch of ground, “System, summon the Slaughterer Armored Vehicle for me!”

【Slaughterer Armored Vehicle: an armored war-wagon with powerful armor and power. Can withstand attacks from zombies below B-rank. The City Lord of the City of Sin’s best mount. Price: 300 Apocalypse Coins.】

【Summon conditions met. May summon the Slaughterer Armored Vehicle…】

【300 Apocalypse Coins consumed…】

As the synthetic electronic voice fell, a garage forged of steel rose slowly on the open ground.

The garage’s steel doors slammed down. A brand-new armored vehicle throwing off a metal sheen rolled slowly out of the garage.

This was a real tracked armored vehicle!

Its size was a match for a large concrete mixer. Hard, thick armor covered the whole body. The base was a tank-style tracked gear.

This kind of tracked-gear tire was fit for driving on every kind of land terrain.

The whole armored vehicle was wrapped tight in armor. And on the head of the armored vehicle a row of roller-style iron spikes had been mounted!

This kill-device should have been where the name Slaughterer Armored Vehicle came from.

【Slaughterer Armored Vehicle summon complete. Host automatically obtains driving skill.】

【There are ten thousand roads. Being overbearing is the first. Drive sloppy, and the enemy sheds two lines of tears.】

【Warm reminder from the Apocalypse City System to the Host: when driving the Slaughterer Armored Vehicle, please do not drive by the rules.】

When the synthetic electronic voice finished, Xiao Yi felt as if he had been poured full of enlightenment. In an instant the driving technique for the Slaughterer Armored Vehicle appeared in his head.

“Master! Their mixer trucks have started lining up and driving toward us!” Li Wanning shouted down at Xiao Yi from above.

Outside the city, two concrete mixers and two dump trucks turned abreast toward the City of Sin, threw out a huge roar, and slowly began to accelerate.

The momentum was like a rainbow!

Using action to make a huge intimidation!

Xiao Yi flipped up onto the Slaughterer Armored Vehicle, opened the top hatch, and climbed in.

The gate of the City of Sin opened slowly…

“Did they surrender?” the silver-haired girl shouted at Ma Chenbin, excited. “Their city gate opened!”

“Hahahaha! This pack of cowards dares fight us, Jiangcheng’s Number One Shelter?! They killed our people. Even if they surrender, they still have to die!” Ma Chenbin’s face suddenly went mad and savage. He shouted at the convoy coiled and ready, overbearing to the extreme:
