Chapter 64: The Lonely City 4
Sichuan Province, the "Shudu" base, the tug-of-war between humans and marching ants finally came to an end after twelve hours, the world outside the base has been devastated, and the inside of the base is not very good, just because the southern city wall was lost in the second half of the night, so that tens of thousands of mutant ants broke through the encirclement and entered the inner region, and the casualties of the military department were really miserable.
After confirming that the remaining marching ants had been recalled to the Forest of Death by the queen ants, the soldiers and adepts of "Shudu" had a chance to breathe, and they retrieved the losses of the base one after another, and then began to clean up the messy battlefield.
Gunsmoke, fire, and corpses were everywhere, and the magma that remained in the heat cooled in the cold wind, gradually transforming from red to black soil.
The damaged ant colony corpses are scattered everywhere, the huge flytrap dies batch after batch, in the dry and broken leaves, Tian Hongyi stares at the black circles and picks up the scattered seeds, the dead will not come back, but as long as the seeds are there, it means the new life of the plant.
The war was over, and He Zijin had long been unable to support the slow sliding against the city wall, she was pillowing on the cold stone bricks, holding a longbow in both hands, and her body was tightly curled up, like an insecure child.
As for Wei Jun, who rushed to the front line of the battlefield, he was carried back by two tall soldiers, he seemed to be tired and fainted in the center of the battlefield, if it weren't for the heavy shield left behind was too conspicuous, I was afraid that the soldiers would really not be able to find him buried by the bones of the ant colony.
In the full twelve hours of fighting, three-quarters of the two billion ant colonies were wiped out, and the dense ant colony shells were piled up in the battle area, as high as a hill. At first glance, you can barely see the end.
The wind curled, evoking a pungent smell and sending it to the city, and Han Xiuyu turned his tired face. Stretched out his hand and gently patted Qin Tiantong's shoulder: "Everyone is tired, the next guard will be handed over to you, Tiantong." β
Qin Tiantong nodded, since last night, she had been ordered not to join the battle, and the physical strength and ability she retained were all for the arrival of this moment during the day.
A new group of fighters replaced the original guards, and the wounded and dead were carried down. And Han Xiuyu finally couldn't support it anymore and fell into the dust on the way back.
The damaged stones were removed, and the corpses, gnawed to the skeletons, were placed in body bags. Qin Tiantong climbed onto the blood-stained city, looking at the scorched black territory, his eyes were as cold as Yun Mo.
It seems that she is used to war, blood, and war, and nothing can stir up too much turmoil in her heart.
"Dumping, ......," a weak voice came from his ear. Qin Tiantong glanced at it in a blink of an eye. Only then did she find that Tu Kun, who was tightly bandaged, appeared behind her, his bloodshot eyes were full of unconcealable sadness, "This time, three or four hundred people died......
"When I came to the base, the big brother who gave you a toffee was no longer there." Tu Kun stretched out his still intact hand and stroked the girl's hair, looked at her suddenly round eyes, and said, "He died under the mouth of the mutant ant." Only one skeleton remained. β
"Dead...... Is it? "After the end times, there is no better understanding of the concept of "death" than a child. From parents to friends, from friends to comrades-in-arms, Qin Tiantong only felt very suffocated at this moment, "dead...... It's also good...... Mom used to say that people with good hearts go to heaven. β
"Well, they're all going to heaven, there's not hell on earth." Tu Kun sighed leisurely, looked at the forest area where the marching ants had retreated, and said tiredly, "They will definitely come, but I don't know when...... Now it's up to you, they're tired. β
Qin Tiantong nodded and said, "Uncle Tu Kun, you go and rest, I'll watch here." β
The cruelty of the world forced her to be precocious, and seeing that the perseverance between the child's eyebrows became more and more cloudy, Tu Kun could only sigh and walk towards the city with the soldiers.
In the border of Sichuan, disasters in the "Shu capital" are frequent, and naturally, the rest of the bases have not been spared. In the rather large area of the country of Sichuan, in the past two months, the remaining bases have reached the point where they can no longer be supported.
Due to the lack of good enough supernatural people, and the lack of clean enough high-level leaders, the dumping and strife in the base have caused many civilians to rise up.
While the "Shudu" base is defending against marching ants, two bases have completed bloody internal reforms. When the newly rising civilian hero cut off the heads of all the high-ranking people and hung them above the city, a new round of transformation in China has quietly begun.
A change of regime means the renewal of the system, and when everything is in ruins, the purpose of the new base leader is naturally to find a strong partner to support his own forces. Obviously, Han Xiuyu of "Shudu" is famous and has become the target of their friendship.
It's just that in the end, it's impossible to say who will use whom and who will annex whom.
β¦β¦
In the distant Bermuda Delta, on the isolated island of Idasa, a closed fortress slowly opened a gap.
Several swarthy Apache helicopters spun around and flew straight in the direction of Debon, England, with obvious purpose and speed, as if there was some urgency.
Scott stood under the open gap, the corners of his crisp suit blown up, his hair messily watching the helicopter troop away, watching the slowly closing top layer obscure the sky outside, until the lights replaced the natural light, and then he turned and walked towards the inner area of Edasa.
"Scott." As a former colleague at Andros, Emile clearly knew Scott's mind better than anyone else, "privately mobilizing Idasa's army...... Do you have Yun Mo's consent? β
"Believe me, she's here, and she'll be the choice." Scott said lightly, "I have Germanic blood, and I have an obligation to save the danger of Germany, and the loss of England and Germany will have a certain impact on the Bermuda Sea." β
"I don't want to wait for something to happen before thinking about how to solve it." Scott glanced at Emile, his eyes were cold, "So, in public and private, Idasa has been holding on for so long, it's time to appear on the world battlefield." β
"Oh, you're crazy!" Amir frowned. "World battlefield? World War III? How can you be sure that something terrible like this is going to happen? You're not God, Scott! β
"It's World War III now, ma'am." Scott replied lightly. "From the moment the zombies appeared in the world, the three wars have arrived."
Amir's momentum weakened, and after a long time, she nodded, with a hint of despair and helplessness in her eyes: "Yes, that's right...... World War III has begun......"
"I didn't expect you to be so naΓ―ve when you came back from Australia." "Judging by the reaction from satellite imagery. The Northern Hemisphere is already in full swing, and Central Asia is occupied by the Zerg, and. The catastrophe is spreading to the surrounding areas. β
"So, Idasa can no longer turn a blind eye." Scott turned the ring on his ring finger, and the engraved "Beloved" was deeply ground on his fingertips, "I have a family to protect. That's why I sent troops. β
Scott respects and follows Yunmo. It's just an admission that Yun Mo does have excellent capital and strength. What's more, she is still the identity of her wife's "daughter".
He knew that everything about Idasha belonged to Yun Mo, however, when the choice came, he would still make the best judgment according to his own mind.
With the expansion of the end times and the globalization of wars, Idasa had no choice.
If Germany, Poland, France, and Belarus are lost, it means that the Channel of England will also lose its blocking effect, and if the Zerg are not afraid of the sea, they can still let the eggs drift to Idasha with the ups and downs of the sea. So...... Even if Idasha is strictly defended, it can't avoid the invasion of the Zerg army.
They don't rebel and are content with life. That is, they will become prey and be dismantled and eaten. This is absolutely undesirable for Scott, who has a strong will to survive.
Scott, who can categorically abandon Andros and follow Yunmo alone before the end of the world, will never stop at the comfort in front of him. The accession of Aida to the WTO will also become a hole card for Yunmo to gain a foothold in Western Europe.
He knew very well that this move was never wrong.
β¦β¦
On the Korean Peninsula, in the Seoul region of South Korea, in the westernmost urban area of "Incheon", the strange turmoil has become more and more intense. As the closest port city in the Yellow Sea, Incheon is one of the main areas that supply seafood to Seoul due to its developed marine resources.
Naturally, when the end of the world comes, the fresh decay will attract countless monsters. It just so happened that the earthquake in South Korea a month ago affected the area, and as the earth's crust cracked, it attracted more and more sea beasts for some reason.
Mutated and powerful sea creatures landed from Incheon and rushed across the peninsula. Although the area of the peninsula is not small, it is not enough compared to the entire ocean.
Dense sea beasts climbed ashore, and Seoul, not far from "Incheon", was directly impacted, and because the combat effectiveness of the human army and the sea beasts was really incomparable, the disaster spread further, and in a short period of time swept the entire peninsula.
Earthquakes, tsunamis, monsters coming, nothing could get worse than this. North Korea's loss is entirely due to the blockage of internal information, while South Korea's loss is due to geographical factors, and...... The orientation of North Korea to South Korea.
When the first batch of South Koreans flocked to North Korean territory because of the shipwreck, the first thing that the Korean Defense Forces around the 38th parallel thought of was to shoot and expel them.
They didn't know the arrival of the disaster, let alone the harm of the sea beast, they only knew that the friction between the two countries did not allow the Koreans to cross the border, so until the moment the sea beast arrived, it was too late.
And the more people die, the stronger the smell of blood, and the sea beasts attracted must come in batches. As a result, the DPRK's bad luck is unavoidable, and the backwardness of the DPRK's armed forces and the closure of its pattern are actually a few points worse than that of the ROK.
If it weren't for the residents near the Yalu River who fled quickly, they were afraid that the country would have perished. And South Korea's tripartite sea, when the catastrophe comes, it can really only take the air route.
Although a month has passed, the movement near "Incheon" still makes many South Korean soldiers feel uneasy, and when the change in this area is heard again, a familiar sense of fear swells up in their hearts.
"Roarβ" A terrible long groan rang out in the distance, as the cold wind came towards the Seoul area.
Yun Mo stood up with his twin blades and looked in the direction of "Incheon", and the view blocked by the building seemed to penetrate the essence and cast it towards a distant destination. Smelling the fishy stench in the air, she said calmly: "The other party has come ashore and is here." β
"Huh?" Ying Tianyang paused, and then said, "That place is not close to Seoul, but it is not far away, so it should take a while." β
"Twenty minutes at most, don't underestimate the ability of mutant sea beasts to move on land." Yun Mo said lightly, "They have a very strong innate ability for water, as long as they can manipulate water to reach the ground, they can ride the wave to reach every inch of the peninsula. β
"Otherwise, why do you think the Korean Peninsula fell so quickly? The permeability of water rivals that of air, and as long as the water source can reach the place, the sea beast will not be left behind. Yun Mo said, "The peninsula is not unjustly destroyed, after all, it is facing the sea forces." β
The surroundings were silent for a long time before Xie Minshan rubbed her face and made a "grievance" expression: "Captain, what is not unjust, facing the sea forces...... It's like we're going to die if we face each other, and we're so frustrated. β
"Just tell the truth." Yun Mo raised her hand and pulled Xie Minshan's face, twisting her head in the direction where the roar came from, seeing that the noise in that area was getting louder and louder, she commanded, "When the time comes, you hit the first one." β
"Huh?"
"The air barrier against the sea water can exercise your control." Yun Mo turned his eyes to look behind him and said to Zhao Yi, "You fight the second one, and the fire type ability will chase you against the sea beast." Take advantage of this opportunity to look for opportunities for breakthroughs. β
Zhao Yi nodded and stood out with Xie Minshan.
"The main force is the two of you for the time being, as for Park Min-hyun and Ying Tianyang, you are responsible for cleaning up the low-level sea beasts that follow closely behind and ensuring the safety of the camp." Yun Mo turned his gaze to the female adepts in Kyoto and said, "As for the defense of the rear, it's up to you. β
"Roar, roar, roarβ"
The roar in the distance seemed to shake the earth, Yun Mo stared at the mountains of bones and black blood around him, looked back in one direction without a trace, and then gathered his breath and stood in the center of the base camp, without meaning to make a move.
The seventh-order alien sea beast is like the plesiosaur she bumped into in Australia, if she finds the weak point to attack, I am afraid it will not be too difficult. However, the suppressive factor of rank and realm is there after all, she doesn't ask Xie Minshan and Zhao Yi to kill each other, after all, it is impossible.
However, if you can rise to a higher level in the duel, it will be the greatest success. (To be continued......)
PS: Specifications of the Sea Beast...... Referring to the big men in the Pacific Rim, I have always felt that the sea beasts in the Pacific Rim are ...... It's cute
