Chapter 1782
"Seriously, Strider. I'm amazed at how brave you are to loot from the Excenomers under such circumstances. The whole world is facing the same disaster right now, so it's only right for us humans to stand together in times like these.""Do you actually expect the outlanders to help us? Every country is trying their hardest to secure more food and resources for their own survival, so it's best not to be too kind to them.""You're right. Still, a million tons of food is no joke. How are you going to transport all that to me?" Sage pulled the conversation back."We have cargo planes at Evercrest. I got those from the Excenomers too. There's also a train that goes from the mountain to Geras. I'll deliver the supplies to you through both modes, so I need you to clean up the airport and the train tracks before I get there.""Those bird monsters won't allow the planes’ safe passage.""No method is safe these days. Just focus on defending Geras, and I'll find a way to get the food to you.

The pair ended the conversation after a few more exchanges. Sage heaved a sigh of relief as she now saw hope for the future. Juan said, "If the people at Evercrest are willing to help us, there's hope for Geras."It was no simple task to transport supplies from Evercrest to Geras, but the city would be in ruins if Strider did not step up. No living being could survive without food. "Tell everyone to gather for a conference. We need to discuss how we're going to help the guys at Evercrest deliver those food supplies to us," Sage calmly said. "Yes, ma'am."Thus, an emergency meeting was held in Geras.***After the call ended, Strider silently stared at the screen. They had successfully reclaimed the base on the mountain after the last assault, and he had been building up the basic facilities required. Most of the damage caused by monsters had since been repaired. Aside from that, they had large amounts of food supplies since the base itself was originally a main camp. Str

After glazing over the gathered soldiers, Strider said, "Everyone, we've just made contact with Madam Sage at Geras City. The situation there isn't optimistic. There are around seven hundred thousand survivors, but they have less than ten days of food left."Everyone began whispering to each other when they heard this. Many of them came from Geras. Some even had family and friends there, and they sighed upon hearing the news.Maxime then said, "Now then, all those who are from Geras, step forward.”March! March! March! Nearly three thousand soldiers came forward and stood in a neat formation at the forefront of the assembly. These were the natives of Geras, belonging to the minority ethnic group known as Gerasian.Strider continued, "Brothers and sisters, the city you hail from is facing a disaster. Do any of you have anything to say about this?""Sir Strider, my family is most likely in Geras. It would've been impossible for them to leave, and I don't know how many of them are

No one was willing to give up on the citizens in Geras. Everyone wanted to do something for them, however little it may be.Strider raised his hand, silencing all the cheers and shouts. He calmly said, "A million tons will be enough for them to get through their current disaster, but it won’t be easy to transport all of that food there. Some of you may die. With that, are you all still willing to do it?""The b*stard took away my family, so I'll never resign my fate to him, even if I have to die in the process. I'll do it, sir!" a young man shouted."Me too." "Give us your orders, Sir Strider. We'll do whatever it takes to get that food to Geras, even if it means we have to lay down our lives.""We'll never retreat, we'll never surrender, and we'll never betray!" the soldiers chanted.Their hearts pumped rapidly, each and every one of them filled with extreme hatred for the shadow in the sky. Their hatred ran so deep that they would do anything it took to take it down. Strider

"There will be a hundred thousand of you escorting the food, and I want all of you to familiarize yourselves with my plan over the next five hours. You'll depart immediately after. When you arrive at Geras, Sage will take over command from me and have you defend the city. I wish all of you good luck. Be safe.""What?!""You're sending a hundred thousand of us out there?”"Won’t Evercrest be no better than empty if all of us went there?" Evercrest Mountain only had a hundred and fifty thousand personnel, and there would only be fifty thousand left if a hundred thousand were sent to Geras. The soldiers wondered how fifty thousand would be able to defend the base."Sir, what about our base here?" "I will stay here and defend the base, so don't worry about things over here. I'll lead the remaining men and find more hope. I hope to see you all alive the next time we meet.""But sir…"After a brief moment of stun, the soldiers started to chant, "All hail Sir Strider! All hail Sir S

It took them five hours to finalize their strategy. Although the plan was far from perfect, they had taken into account every detail they could.Five hours later, the teams were fully assembled and the food was loaded onto the train. Several carriages were loaded with a total of one million tons of food. The aerial teams and three massive cargo planes then took off. The fighter jets circled the cargo planes, providing an escort as they departed. Aurelion was in charge of aerial command, while Mountain was on ground command. Communications were established so that they could stay in touch throughout the mission.Thus, a hundred thousand men responsible for the food supply transportation set out from Evercrest Mountain. The trains roared to life, and the jets streaked across the sky. Armored vehicles sped out of the base, and soldiers were seated on top of the trains. The train's escorts were in tanks or on the roofs in an organized formation. ***"Aerial team, stay vigilant for bir

The blinding sun could not penetrate the shadow in the sky, and the entire land appeared dim.Meanwhile, Adrian was smoothly driving across Bronze City in Skyton. The wireless signal receiver on the roof of the car blinked as incoming calls were transmitted through the car's speakers."Adrian, are you there?" Gracia's voice came through the car's speakers. The signal was from Drogoton."I'm here, Gracia. What's going on? Did something happen in Drogoton?""We're fine here, but Strider has done something extremely shocking. You'll never imagine what that nineteen-year-old is capable of."What has he done? Where is he now?""We haven't been able to reach him. It seems his communications are off. We'll only be able to contact him if he contacts us first. However, Steel sent word that Strider's at a base in Evercrest Mountain."Adrian was slightly surprised by this information. “Strider had more than four hundred thousand men in his command, less than two hundred thousand after th
Chapter 1789
Adrian rubbed his neck, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness.Rozi seemed puzzled as she asked, "Has Strider always been so reclusive? How could they possibly transport food in these circumstances?"Although Rozi did not understand modern military tactics, she knew it was impossible for food to be transported between cities. Of course, there was a chance they would succeed if the distance apart was not too great. Adrian knew Strider's character very well and shook his head helplessly. "He's a strong and independent lone ranger, plus it's difficult to figure out what he's thinking. However, he always has his reasons behind his actions. I'm sure he knows what he's doing." Rozi frowned and gained a pretty negative impression of Strider based on his actions. To her, any normal leader would never make such an impulsive decision. "They've got a tough battle up ahead,” she commented.The cost of moving ahead with such a plan would be heavy. However, if Strider did not take action, G
