Rebirth after the apocalypse: I create a new world with space!

The night breeze from the watchtower carried a slight chill. Ink-colored energy flowed in Li Luo's palm as she locked her gaze on the northwest mountains and forests, her fingertips dialing Lu Jingcheng's communicator.

A familiar male voice came quickly from the other end of the phone, sounding somewhat hurried, and mixed with the whispers of the team members, who were clearly busy helping each other find their lost family members.

"Cheng, urgent mission. Assemble immediately and meet at the West Gate in five minutes." Li Luo's voice was soft yet crisp. "The Destruction Force has an outer outpost in the Northwest Mountains. Uncle Xu will gather the other teams. We'll wait for them at the West Gate."

"Lolo? Okay, I'll get the team together right away." Lu Jingcheng's tone instantly turned serious, and he immediately called out to the team members beside him:

"Team 1, all units back! Emergency mission: surprise attack in the northwest mountains. Assemble at the west gate in five minutes! Hurry!"

Upon hearing the call, the team members did not hesitate. They made arrangements for the relatives they had just found, grabbed their weapons, and quickly returned to their unit.

In just five minutes, the seven members of Team 1 were lined up neatly outside the west gate. Their black combat uniforms made them look tall and straight, and the sound of their armor clashing was crisp and clear.

Li Luo hurried over, nodded slightly to the familiar team members, and then looked towards the entrance of the base.

The other six teams that Xu Ying had gathered were arriving one after another. The team members walked quickly but in an orderly formation. Their unfamiliar faces revealed the perseverance that had been tempered by the apocalypse. Li Luo understood that this was the first time she had seen all the members of the Blazing Fire Team except for Team 1.

Before long, all 42 members of the seven squads of the Blazing Fire Team had assembled.

Li Luo walked to the front of the group and glanced at the crowd. Apart from Lin Hai, Zhou Mei and others from Team 1, she did not recognize the other team members, but she could see a sense of understanding and respect in their eyes.

It seems that when Xu Ying gathered the team, she had already explained her identity, strength, and command authority for this mission to everyone.

Lu Jingcheng quickly stepped forward and grasped her wrist, his fingertips calloused, his tone filled with worry and reassurance:

"Lolo, the situation at the stronghold is unclear. You stay with me. Xu Da has already instructed all the teams that you will be in charge of this mission, and everyone will follow your orders."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Li Luo took his hand in return, gently squeezing it with her fingertips to reassure him. Then she turned to face the whole team, her voice suddenly rising in pitch, carrying a powerful, penetrating quality:

"Gentlemen, there's a Destruction Force stronghold eight kilometers northwest of the mountains, containing corpse-exploding bombs and corpse-controlling sentries. It's the root cause of the surrounding zombie horde. Our mission is to take down the stronghold, destroy the dangerous goods, and leave two people alive for interrogation. The enemy is inside; try to capture them alive!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand to signal the team leaders to come forward.

The seven team captains stepped forward one by one. Thanks to Xu Ying's prior arrangement, they all took the initiative to look at Li Luo and greet her, each with their own unique style.

Team Leader Su Rui, with short, ear-length hair, sharp features, and a camouflage combat uniform that accentuated her tall and straight figure, was Lu Jingcheng's comrade-in-arms. She spoke first, her tone crisp and decisive:

"Commander Li, this is Su Rui, the captain of Team 2. Xu Da said you are extremely capable. Team 2 requests to be responsible for sealing off the back door of the stronghold and ensuring that no one escapes!"

Team 3's captain, Zhou Kai, was a burly man with a light scar on his face. He was the team's elder brother, steady and reliable, and had led his team on many life-or-death missions. He nodded slightly to Li Luo.

"Commander Li, Team 3 Captain Zhou Kai. Team 3 is responsible for checking for traps on the perimeter, clearing the way for the main force, and ensuring the brothers' safe advance."
