"Missiles?"
Zhang Qiang suspected he had misheard.
The instant the zombie virus spread, firearms and other explosive weapons had all stopped working.
Wasn't that... common knowledge?
"Yes, missiles that can bombard ground targets. Ideally, a missile silo that can strike a designated location directly."
Zhang Qiang hesitated for a moment. "We do have one, but... we've already tested it. It won't launch at all. What do you want it for?"

"You gave the order," the guard hurriedly said.
Zhang Qiang: "Ummm..."
