Chapter 328 Internal Strife

As they neared the battlefield, Shi Tian and Mary shared a sinister moment of shared understanding.

They realized that not only could they potentially use social media as a weapon to prevent the commanders from fighting, but they could also demand compensation for their intervention.

In an apocalyptic world where resources were scarce and precious, they weren't willing to expend their limited supplies and effort without some form of reimbursement.

"Ahh, I can't wait to get my hands on more money." Mary grinned wickedly.

Meanwhile, Shi Tian was starting to get nervous and asked, "I do get a share of them, right?"

After all, most of the resources they used were from Mary, and not his.

As for Mary, she stared at Shi Tian for a few seconds, seemingly deciding whether or not to share the wealth.

Thankfully, Mary wasn't so heartless as she raised three fingers up.

"30 percent, and that's the best you can get." She said in a strict tone, clearly indicating to him that it was non-negotiable.

Nevertheless, 30 percent was already quite a lot for Shi Tian, and he gladly accepted the percentage share.

To put it simply, it was as if a freeloader, who didn't need to do much or offer up his own resources but could still receive a sustainable amount of money for them to spend.

Who was going to complain about receiving less in that situation?

Only the greedy ones would be dissatisfied and wish to cause a ruckus to gain more despite their incapability.

"Well, that's enough discussion now because we've arrived." Mary clasped her hands, turned around, and focused up ahead.

At the same time, Shi Tian narrowed his eyes, his expression turning solemn.

"Damn, they are really going all out." Mary stepped on the brake and exclaimed in disbelief.

"Indeed, just what is wrong with them?" Shi Tian twitched his mouth.

The scene that greeted Shi Tian and Mary was one of chaos and destruction.

They had entered a zone of frenzied combat. The sound of gunfire and explosions echoed through the air, creating a deafening cacophony.

Soldiers clad in various types of armor and wielding an assortment of weapons were engaged in a fierce battle. Bullets whizzed through the air, and the ground was scarred with craters from the explosive devices.

Amidst the chaos, Shi Tian and Mary could see two distinct groups of soldiers, each fighting under a different banner.

The soldiers of Commander Benedict, distinguished by the emblem of a Green Snake on their uniforms, clashed with those under Commander Phoebe, whose emblem was a Scarlet Ruby.

It was a brutal and desperate battle, as both sides fought for dominance.

Soldiers exchanged fire from behind makeshift barricades, and the armored vehicles on both sides fired their heavy weapons, adding to the cacophony.

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Shi Tian turned to Mary and asked, "Are you sure our mounted turret is going to attract any attention?"

It wasn't that he wanted to be a party pooper or something, but he highly doubted their mounted turret sound was going to be more impressive than the current arsenal that both commanders are utilizing.

And if Shi Tian was doubting it, then it wasn't much different from Mary's original opinion.

After a quick evaluation, Mary was positive that their mounted turret was just going to be a small droplet of water in the gigantic ocean. In other words, it was impossible to garner anyone's attention.

Hell, even explosions aren't going to do much when the two commanders are practically throwing explosives at each other.

Shi Tian's skepticism about their ability to attract attention in the midst of the furious battle was well-founded. The cacophony of gunfire, the rumble of armored vehicles, and the deafening explosions drowned out any other sounds.

The soldiers were fully engrossed in the battle, and even the appearance of the Iron Sentinel hadn't caused a significant disruption. It seemed that the commanders and their troops were too focused on their feud to be easily swayed.

As the two were watching the battlefield erupting into chaos, Vanessa returned with shock.

"Do you two hear the explosive sounds?" Vanessa asked before halting her movement when her eyes noticed the battle ahead.

"Hot damn, are they engaging in a war over some trivial matter?" She then exclaimed in disbelief, clearly unable to comprehend the actions of the two commanders.

And she wanted to continue to say something else to describe the battle, but couldn't figure out the precise words.

Meanwhile, Mary noticed it and chimed in, "Are you trying to say these two are having quite the internal strife?"

"Yes, that's the term I'm looking for." Vanessa clasped her hands. "Was the reason for the internal strife so drastic to warrant such measures?"

"No clue, but I know one thing. If we don't stop them, then it's going to be bad." Shi Tian interrupted, his eyes narrowing at the two commanders on each side, clearly lost in their emotions.

They were simply way too irrational to start a battle and waste all their arsenals.

"There's no other choice left," Mary suddenly sighed and glanced at Shi Tian. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝗯𝐧𝗼𝘃𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝐦

"Give me your mechanical right arm for a second." She then demanded.

Confused, Shi Tian didn't understand what she was planning to do. Nevertheless, he did as told and detached his mechanical right arm before handing it to her.

Once Mary got the mechanical right arm, she began tweaking some things and inputting a series of codes using her Cellos device.

A few minutes later, Mary returned the mechanical right arm and asked, "How strong are you right now, Nathan?"

"Umm… acceptable?"

"I meant as in your strength. Can you withstand a lot of weight now?"

Nodding his head slowly, Shi Tian found the whole ordeal to be somewhat confusing.

"In terms of strength, I have increased quite a lot since the item that you gave me." He replied, with the item naturally being the Metallic Stone, but considering Vanessa was present, he didn't dare to reveal it outright.

"Very well, now you're going to go out and charge the Light Beam to attract them."
