I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World Chapter 776 – Remnant of the Void

Chapter 776: Remnant of the Void

Jiang Chen and Garrett stared at each other when they heard the loud explosions outside. They both read the alertness in each others’ eyes.

“I’ll take a look outside.” Garrett loaded his rifle. “If I run into an unexpected situation…”

“You have the approval to fire and keep the entrance guarded.”

Garrett took a deep breath and nodded.

“Roger.”

After that, he maximized the power of the kinetic skeleton, and at the same time he modulated the limits of his own titanium alloy skeleton to run at the speed of a car.

Jiang Chen frowned as he watched him leave.

In fact, as early as when he first left Coro Island, he expected some people to follow behind him. Not to mention that several major victors that had been coveting the Golden Apple, and even the ancient families like Rothschild began to reveal their undisguised greed for the roots of the power that once helped the Third Reich.

Even if they couldn’t obtain the incredible technology inside, an understanding of the perspective in history told from the future would also be a reward. Compared to the former, the latter was even more attractive. The butterfly effect would completely change the timeline, with one of the three major powers declaring bankruptcy and one dying in its infancy. The only remaining one maintained an alliance on a military level without any further cooperation.

Even so, the history known to the future could serve as a reference for the future development of this world. The upcoming problems could be avoided. The potential dangers could be contained in its cradle. Although this kind of political and economical awareness may not be accurate to a specific field or industry, it would be enough for an influential individual in possession of power!

However, they still didn’t understand what the Golden Apple really was.

They were not in communication with people from future, but beings even more powerful.

Those who have entered the void gave no time definition for its existence. They may have only lived for a second longer than those in the apocalypse, or they may have lived thousands of years longer than any life on earth. For humans at the material level, they were the specter in pure quantum states.

And for specter, they have no concept of death…

Inside the basement, Jiang Chen saw a computer.

That’s right, it was really a computer. Though it was the size of a cabin and the tube exposed outside the case was as thick as an arm.

If Jiang Chen wasn’t mistaken, the earliest computer was created in 1946, and in that year, World War II was over.

“The lost technologies? Are just these things?”

Muttering to himself, Jiang Chen walked inside. If the only secrets hidden inside were just these, then he just wasted two weeks on a meaningless tomb.

As soon as he stepped into the room, the signal light on the machine turned on.

The red lights lit up one by one. The hidden power system started and sent power to the machine. The shrill buzzing made Jiang Chen take a few steps back, but everything soon returned to normal…

Or, it turned completely abnormal.

When the hoarse current sounded, Jiang Chen’s eyes widened with disbelief, and he was completely shocked.

“How are you, compatriots on the Alternative World Line… I’m glad we’re able to restore contact with you…”

Jiang Chen made a mistake

It was not a computer at all, but a walkie-talkie that spanned across the dimension…

…

Boom!

A dozen rounds of 40mm grenades launched through the snowstorms and the dense explosions instantly covered the entrance of the fort. The explosions blew up the snow, mixed with ice shards, and the milky smoke instantly engulfed the nine Sea Lions at the door.

“Kill confirmed.” Observed from the thermal image that the heat source disappeared, the leader spoke into the mic

“Enter the fortress.”

“Roger.” The leader tapped on the helmet and ended the communication.

At the same time, on the opposite slope, eight figures dressed in polar camouflage stood up and moved to the entrance of the fortress with rifles.

Their faces were tightly concealed, there was no national flag on their arms, and even the rifle was covered with white cloth.

From their fluid tactics and actions, these people were obviously not rookies. If they were not special forces in any country, they must be experienced mercenary soldiers.

However, although Sea Lions were not known internationally, they were not rookies either!

The instant when eight rifles with thermal imaging stepped into the white mist covered area, gunshots suddenly erupted.

The orange-yellow trajectory shredded the smoke, and without the time to duck, the eight mercenaries were penetrated by the Sea Lions into sieves.

The defense of the kinetic skeleton was not a joke. Although the grenade attack took everyone by surprise, at most it caused minor injuries to several unlucky guys.

The initial force was completely eliminated and the unidentified force that ambushed the Sea Lions was caught off guard. However, they reacted quickly. Several firepower points immediately unleashed toward the entrance of the fortress.

“Damn! Where did these guys come from!” A Sea Lion threw himself behind a snow pile, took the moving bunker that his comrades had thrown his way, and slammed into the ground.

The tripod was nailed into the snow, and the alloy plate expanded upwards, blocking the front of the Sea Lion.

The other few were also equally dispersed, setting up behind covers at the entrance to the fort and fired back.

The cold temperature even made the gunshots turn less accurate.

In such adverse weather, the ballistic trajectory of the bullets drifted as the bullets freely flew in the screaming snowstorm. The tracer’s ballistic trajectory has drawn an elusive arc on the open space between the two sides. Even the Sea Lions’ Reaper Assault Rifle offered little advantages.

The opposition was at a complete advantage in terms of numbers. From the information on the life detection device, there were more than a hundred people and more than ten times the Sea Lions there! The Sea Lions were better equipped, whether it was heat source shield or the bulletproof ability of the kinetic skeleton.

“What the hell is this! Keynes, what is going on outside! Who are they?” Having ran to the fortress’ door, Garrett quickly entered the battle. Leaning back against the gate, he yelled in the communication channel.

The man who was called Keynes was the deputy leader of the Sea Lions Special Forces. But at the moment, he was also confused. He did not understand who they were fighting.

“I want to know too! But I think we can only know if we win!”

“They have too many people! If they go around our wings, we will be in trouble! And we still don’t know if they have any reinforcements!” A Sea Lion said.

“I hope not -”

Whoosh!

Suddenly a screech interrupted the man’s words, and the explosion rang in the battlefield. The splattered snow splashed all over Garret and the other Sea Lions’ face. Fortunately, there were no casualties.

“Oh, Sh*t, they’re not afraid to cause an avalanche?”

As he spoke, another mortar was fired!

The explosion caused great trouble for the Sea Lions, but fortunately because of this snowstorm, the other side’s shells practically all missed.

But sooner or later their good luck would run out.

Garrett did not panic, he captured the position of the enemy units from the life detection device and calmly gave instructions to the team.

“Cairns, you take two people from this side and go around the wings. Leon, you go to the hillside in the middle of four o’clock with your sniper rifle. The rest of you stay here with me! Tell them with our guns, who the real elites are!”

“ROGER!”
