Xiao Fan withdrew his gaze and took a deep breath.
No matter what, he would not give up hope. Since he had obtained such a system, he believed he could do something.
Turning around, several soldiers stood behind Xiao Fan, waiting for his command.
"When will you guys replenish the ammunition in your guns?"
"Report to the Commander, the ammunition replenishment time for all Red Alert Units is unified to noon at 12 o'clock!"
Xiao Fan checked the time. It was just past 11:50.
"Okay, let's go clear the remaining wards first when it hits 12, then leave here!"
When it hit 12 o'clock, Xiao Fan could feel the change himself.
The revolver that he had been holding in his hand seemed to grow heavier. He opened it and saw six orange bullets inside again.
The few soldiers were the same. All guns were automatically replenished with bullets. They now had unlimited ammo.
"Move out, take action!"
Under the protection of the soldiers, Xiao Fan's team advanced towards the remaining wards.
The remaining wards still had zombies inside. With the full team today, they could clear them all out.
Wang Zhan led the way with three new soldiers lining up, raising their guns and getting ready. Wang Zhan went to the very front and shot the lock.
The moment the lock shattered, the zombies inside the ward began rushing out!
"Open fire, pay attention to accuracy!"
Wang Zhan had already become the de facto leader of the few soldiers. He kept firing. Almost every shot blew a zombie's head off.
Although the marksmanship of the other three soldiers was inferior, they now had unlimited ammo and could fire without restraint, racking up kills continuously.
The zombies shuffled forward clumsily. The soldiers fought retreating, and one by one, the zombies collapsed to the ground mid-stride.
Clearing ward by ward, in about 50 minutes, more than half of the dozens of wards on the entire 7th floor had been cleared of zombies.
"Report to the Commander. I leveled up!" Li Long was the first to speak up.
With the fighting, another 1-star soldier was born.
"Good. Zhang Chao and Liu DaHua focus fire and ensure you level up with the remaining zombies."
Wang Zhan and Li Long stopped shooting. Zhang Chao and Liu DaHua moved up front and continuously fired. After several rounds, the two also leveled up to become 1-star soldiers.
The three new soldiers now had 270 bullets each. Although Wang Zhan only had 30+ bullets left, he wasn't far from reaching 2-star either, having completed nearly half the requirements.
And the zombies on the entire 7th floor, apart from the horde in the grand conference hall, had been completely eliminated.
"Collect funds!"
The few soldiers immediately rushed up and started collecting various gold and silver jewelry.
However, the harvest this time was insignificant. Since most of the zombies in the wards were male, they did not wear any jewelry. The 40+ bodies only yielded slightly over 300 in funds.
Xiao Fan's funds barely reached 900.
The funding condition was met. Xiao Fan immediately summoned the system screen and opened the Buildings column.
Power Plant, cost 800, construction time 1 hour.
Without any hesitation, he chose to construct it. Without a power plant, the screen could not be lit up. Without the screen as a guide, Xiao Fan would be as good as blind, which was absolutely unacceptable.
Construction of the power plant began. Funds deducted. Xiao Fan had 100 left.
Xiao Fan currently held the rank of Squad Leader. He could command up to 8 Red Alert Units max.
He did not immediately spend the 100 funds either. He wanted to see if any new soldier types would unlock in the barracks after the power plant finished construction, like in the games.
With the zombies in the grand conference hall as the exception, this floor was now completely clear and very safe.
Xiao Fan had no plans to engage the conference hall zombies. Based on a preliminary estimate, there were over a hundred inside. It was too dangerous for him presently.
So he patiently waited here for an hour. When it struck 1 pm, the system notification came.
"Congratulations, Commander. The power plant construction is complete!"
Xiao Fan immediately opened the system screen.
Sure enough, the central part of the large screen on the left had lit up now.
The bright area was not very big, and it was full of densely packed specks of light everywhere - red, green, and white.
"Annie, explain this."
"Roger, Commander. The power plant comes with a small radar map, which is what you currently see. Everything within a 100-meter diameter centered around you is illuminated. The white specks represent Red Alert Units, green ones survivors, red ones zombies. There are also purple specks for Mutant Beasts and blue for supply boxes."
Xiao Fan looked closely. Indeed, the white specks were all around him, exactly four - Wang Zhan's squad.
As for the red, there were far too many to count, densely packed within a 100-meter radius.
Especially at the outpatient and emergency section, it was simply a sea of red - no wonder with the system he narrowly escaped death over there. Here in the inpatient area he was relatively safer.
There were occasional green specks around, likely survivors hiding in certain spots.
No purple Mutant Beasts specks in sight, so there seemed to be none nearby for now.
But from Annie's description, these Mutant Beasts sounded even more terrifying than zombies.
As for the blue supply boxes, Xiao Fan remembered them from the game, randomly spawning on the map.
The supplies from the boxes widely varied - could be soldiers, tanks, or money.
Not even limited to one country, anything military-related from around the world might spawn, an important means for players to boost strength and get rich.
After hearing Annie's explanations, Xiao Fan scrutinized the map closely, though not expecting much. To his surprise, he actually discovered a blue speck on the map!
Located east of him, about 40 meters away, a blue speck hidden among some green ones.
Since the blue and green colors were fairly close, Xiao Fan did not notice it right away earlier.
He hurried to the window and peered east.
Forty meters wasn't far. It was inside the hospital campus, at the surgical building.
But the surgical building also had 6 floors. Which floor would the supply box be on?
Xiao Fan's gaze searched floor by floor, finally settling on the first floor of the surgical building - that was where the hospital canteen was located!
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.

Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
