Chapter 126: Tribute to the Fallen
"It is an honor to have fought alongside all of you, my dear brothers. Maybe not now or tomorrow, but we will see each other someday, wherever you are now resting," shouted Dominic, his hand bandaged, barely able to stand.
"Attention, salute!"
"Glory to humanity!"
Thousands of soldiers stood in formation before a monument specially created for all the soldiers who had lost their lives in the battle a few days ago. Only now did everyone have the chance to gather; they had to burn every trace of human remains on the battlefield to prevent future infections.
Diseases could spread in these places if the battlefield wasn't properly cleaned, and the best way to do this was to burn everything with gasoline. There was no cleaner way to do it; the bullets had shredded the corpses, and very few were intact.
This whole battle had been hell for many, but they won, unlike other places where they unfortunately lost.
"Has the front line been recovered?" Dominic asked as he headed towards a helicopter that would depart for the front, where the CRM was located.
"It was recovered after our planes finished the job by destroying the entire forward post."
"That's the authorization the CRM gave us; fifteen thousand soldiers have now been sent to establish another foothold."
The front line protecting the CRM was Saskatchewan. The walkers in that area were no fewer than those eliminated a few days ago at the front where Dominic was fighting, but unlike that place, things couldn't be resolved in time.
Many had died; the high-ranking CRM officials who were dead didn't know what to do, and since Elizabeth had also fallen ill, they couldn't do much.
Okafor was now in command. He knew exactly what would happen in the coming months, so after Dominic's arrival, he would take control of this organization.
A merger of all the major communities would equal more than a million survivors, a truly fascinating number.
If everyone could recover to that level, they would have nothing to fear in the world.
Only then would they be closer to global stability.
When Dominic boarded the helicopter, a brigade of helicopters took to the sky and quickly departed. The formation they maintained in the air kept Dominic's helicopter protected in case of an attempted takedown.
"How is the development in the South?" Dominic looked at Nick, who was traveling with him.
Nick looked at a smart tablet and said, "The expansion continues; the walkers are being eliminated in Texas, where the concentration is highest."
The forces were tasked with dealing with as many walkers as possible so that the cleanup would be progressive. It's true they were dedicating 60% of their force to the Canadian border, but they were also focusing on cleaning up the rear, which had been neglected.
Dominic knew that with the weapons they had, they could stop the walkers with the fewest number of soldiers possible. This would make it easier to take the rest of the world's military bases and put resources that were running scarce into action.
When they arrived in the city, Dominic first went to see how Okafor was doing. Being in the CRM headquarters now was not a problem because the leaders who controlled the military had been eliminated, and now only Elizabeth was still alive.
"Move aside, soldier," Dominic said to the CRM soldier, who moved when he saw who it was.
In the room, Elizabeth was dying, and when she saw Dominic enter, she said, "I thought you'd be dead."
"I almost died. Someone from the CRM sent assassins to kill me, but I guess you already knew that unless you weren't the one who sent them." Dominic took a chair, sat down in front of Elizabeth's bed, and pulled out a gun.
Elizabeth smiled and said, "If you can't control everyone you're going to bring to us, there will be a famine in which we'll end up cannibalizing each other."
"That's not going to happen. You made a mistake in thinking you could kill me and take control of everything. Now it's my turn to decide the future of the world." Dominic raised his gun and killed Elizabeth, who was the acting leader of the CRM.
When the assassination was over, he looked at the time and said, "It's time for unification."
