Apocalypse: Infinite Supplies System - Chapter 278

Chapter 278: These guys were certainly audacious
Whether it was Mia’s ability to heal or Olivia controlling Moby, both could assist him, playing crucial roles.

Alex hesitated for a moment.

In the end, he agreed to let the two women accompany him!

“However, you must be very careful about safety. Once the battle starts, I may not be able to protect you!”

…

In the darkness of the night, the sea breeze howled, and the sound of waves surrounded them.

Apart from that, it was eerily quiet.

The survivors on the small boat remained silent, maintaining tranquility.

On the yacht, Alex whistled.

Soon after, a giant sperm whale breached the surface.

And then disappeared back into the water.

By now, they had been traveling in the dark for over two hours.

It was nearly midnight, approaching the early hours of the next day.

Alex turned to Olivia and asked, “How far are we from the battleship?”

Olivia closed her eyes, seemingly communicating with Moby.

Soon, she received the relevant information.

Opening her eyes, she replied, “According to Moby, not far from us in the nearby waters, there is a large vessel heading our way. It should be the battleship Sky Dragon!”

At these words, Alex flew directly into the sky.

This action immediately caused astonishment among the survivors below.

It was their first time seeing Alex fly.

And their first time witnessing someone with the ability to fly.

Truly enviable.

After Alex reached the sky, he indeed saw a light in the distance.

“The battleship Sky Dragon!”

Alex snorted.

He then returned to the surface, commanding the survivors of the Dawn.

“According to the plan, split into two groups. One will go head-on to attract attention, the other will circle around from behind!”

“Understood?”

“Understood!”

“Understood!”

“Understood!”

…

At the same time, aboard the battleship Sky Dragon.

Battleship captain Morgan stood on the warship, using binoculars to look at the distant sea.

“Heh heh, Dawn, I’m coming for you!”

Morgan chuckled smugly.

He was a trusted subordinate of Wolfie and Lupine.

This operation was also his first time as captain of the battleship, leading the expedition against the Dawn.

Beside him, the deputy officer ingratiatingly said, “This expedition against the Dawn is surely in the bag. Captain, after this, you’ll definitely be more valued by our two leaders!”

Morgan boasted, “Of course, who do they think I am!”

“But, I think we should still be cautious.”

“After all, if the reconnaissance ahead is discovered by them, they might spill the beans,” the deputy officer cautiously reminded.

Morgan waved it off indifferently.

“It doesn’t matter, even if they know we’re coming early, so what?”

“A mere Dawn, without any real warships, is just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered before us! There’s nothing to fear!”

“Well, that’s true…”

At this, the deputy officer could only nod.

He then raised his binoculars and casually glanced at the distant sea.

But just that glance made his spirit tremble.

“Captain, look! There are people approaching in the distance!”

Upon hearing this, Morgan was startled and quickly raised his binoculars to look.

In the dark night, seven or eight speedboats were swiftly heading towards the warship.

Each of these speedboats was armed with seven or eight fully equipped survivors.

From the direction they were coming, their target seemed clear—it was their battleship!

“What’s going on? Where are these people from? Dawn?” Morgan raised an eyebrow.

These guys were certainly audacious.

Do they really think they can challenge their battleship with just this handful of people?

What’s the difference between this and trying to stop a tank with a toothpick?

“Ridiculous, truly ridiculous! With just a command from me, these small boats will be drowned in artillery fire,” Morgan sneered.

A trace of disdain appeared on Morgan’s face.

These guys seemed to already know about the battleship.

But does that change anything?

With just these few people, they probably can’t even penetrate the battleship’s outer hull!

“Captain, what should we do now? Should we take care of them?” the deputy officer asked.

Morgan nodded and said, “Of course. However, they haven’t yet entered the optimal firing range. Wait until they get closer before striking!”

“Understood!”

The deputy officer nodded.

Then he chuckled coldly.

“They’re really not afraid of death, daring to come straight towards us like this.”

He then informed everyone on the battleship to stay vigilant and closely monitor the yachts approaching the warship.

However, just as those yachts approached the optimal firing range of the battleship’s cannons, they unexpectedly stopped.

They quickly dispersed.

Then they brought out various mortars and rocket launchers, aiming towards the direction of the warship.

The distance was still quite far.

As a result, the accuracy of these projectiles was very poor, with very few hitting the battleship itself.

However, one shell did manage to hit the battleship.

Although the damage caused was minimal, Morgan was still furious.

“Attention everyone, open fire! Wipe them all out! They’re overestimating themselves, simply asking for death!” Morgan exclaimed angrily.

These people were simply ignorant of the consequences.

They actually dared to fire first, clearly underestimating their own lives.

Well then, so be it.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At Morgan’s command,

In the next moment,

The cannons roared, firing in unison! Flames illuminated the entire night sky! Soon, in the distant sea, enormous columns of water erupted.

However, few yachts were hit.

After all, yachts were fast and small, making it difficult for battleship cannons to lock onto them.

Moreover, in the poor visibility of night and at a distance, cannon accuracy was poor.

Therefore, hardly any yachts were damaged.

The bombardment continued relentlessly.

Yet, the results were minimal! Reluctantly, Morgan called his men to use rifles.

At this distance, it clearly exceeded effective range.

Nevertheless, under dense cover, it was still possible to hit some.

Morgan said coldly, “Just a few small boats can’t stop us! But since you dare provoke us, you must pay the price!”

He decided, at any cost, to take out these people.

However, just then, his deputy suddenly realized something and said with concern, “Captain, I feel things aren’t so simple. They’re deliberately keeping a distance from us, obviously trying to draw our fire.”

“I suspect, there might be a trick!”

Hearing this, Morgan’s expression changed slightly.

A trick?

Suddenly, he was startled.

Then he quickly asked, “Is it true? Explain yourself clearly!”

After careful consideration, the deputy said, “Actually, it’s just my guess.”

“I suspect these people sent over here might have only one objective: to deplete our ammunition!”

“Furthermore, our men, after depletion, will be exhausted by the time we find the Dawn, reducing our combat effectiveness…”

“So, in my opinion, we don’t need to tangle with these jesters. They can’t cause us any substantial harm anyway!”

…

Hearing this, Morgan nodded thoughtfully.

However, just as he was about to issue a ceasefire order,

A profoundly strong sense of danger suddenly struck!

His heart tightened instantly, as if gripped tightly by someone.
