Chapter 425: Situation
In the gloomy fog, there was no sound in the Joint Operations Center except for the occasional sound of keystrokes and footsteps.
For the past few days, no one has been able to keep a smile on their faces, and the sudden huge loss has hit people in the head more than once, making them dizzy and deeply frightened.
Originally, it was planned that the individual amphibious combat unit developed based on the heavy exoskeleton armor technology provided by Princess Nadia could maintain the balance of power on the battlefield for at least one year. But who would have thought that in just one afternoon's work, the more than 200 combat units that the three countries had that could conduct actual combat would be wiped out in this way.
The super-giant sea beast that broke through the sea from under the surface of the sea and used its thick hook claws covered with heavy overlapping and heavy scale armor to slap the combat unit team that was cruising at low altitude into the sea with incredible agility and speed like a mosquito, and the ensuing infrasonic attacks quickly paralyzed their resistance, and in less than five minutes, one sudden and perfect attack after another took away the twelve squads that were on patrol and alert duty at the time.
Tall, humanoid cyborgs that had never been recorded in humans broke through the weak defenses in droves, waving their four glowing arms and spitting foul-smelling slime in all directions. As if they had been rehearsed countless times, they took the resting suitables and their landlines from the dormitories and workshops with ease, and ruined everything with a high-frequency electromagnetic pulse as they left.
"So the early warning mechanism and defense system that we have spent billions of dollars to build are so vulnerable to them!" Rogers nervously snapped his fingers, his eyes filled with fear and doubt.
"As you say, sir. We have to admit the fact that so far, the guys from the sea have been playing games with us. Chris took off his glasses and massaged his forehead with his fingers, feeling deeply tired.
Nearly a week has passed since that disastrous afternoon, with meetings to count damages, hold accountable, and analyze...... Things like that were repeated almost every day, and of course, he knew that it was all pointless, just that people needed something to distract them in the face of an irresistible force. It is a pity that they did not even dare to disclose this terrible news to the public, so they could only suspend all propaganda activities on the grounds that these star unit members participated in the training camp!
"Yes," said Vinogradov's voice, dull and indistinct, as if coming from under the water, "in the next three months we will return to the situation in which the war began." Once again, control of the seas is back in their hands, and at least a hundred or more projects will be forcibly suspended, with losses that would actually exceed our worst-case estimates. ”
"So, who can tell me what the hell is going on with those monsters crawling out of the sea?" Rogers began to pull strands of hair from his head, as the front-line plenipotentiary, the pressure on him was on the verge of breaking down.
Wu Zhi, who had not spoken, took out several documents from his briefcase and distributed them to everyone present one by one, "I think that now we have to face more than just this problem. Let's take a look at this thing first. ”
He watched people's faces go from bad to worse, and finally stiff and numb, and sighed deeply in his heart. Truth be told, who wants to face this situation? This is not a situation that can be reversed by manpower.
The depths of the water were the perfect defense for their enemies, and any attempt to inflict damage on their foundations would have to pass through at least five thousand meters of water, which is a fantasy for the current level of human technology. This kind of unilateral situation of only being beaten and unable to fight back makes everyone extremely depressed, but they can't think of any good way.
There have been proposals to drop nuclear bombs on several areas of deep sea activity that have been discovered, but the problem is that even without considering the lethal effect, there is no guarantee that the nuclear bomb will survive the long sinking process. Sometimes, Wu Zhi also fantasizes that the black technology products being studied in the scientific research institute can come in handy, allowing them to have a hearty counterattack. However, the fact is that there is a considerable institutional difference between the technology from Atlantis and the technology of the human race, and it is not possible to bridge this difference in just a few months.
"So, Wu, you mean that the birds in the cage actually got a message that we didn't even know?" a certain malicious smile appeared on Vinogradov's face, and he asked lightly as he patted the papers in his hand.
Several others also cast suspicious eyes on Wu Zhi, who knew that the poor insects on the Fusang Islands who were locked in the safe zone simply did not have the spare time to participate in the battle with the deep sea, and God knows if they could even get within ten kilometers of the coastline!
"In a sense, I doubt its authenticity as much as you do. Wu Zhi shook his head slowly, "But we all know that some people have done some things secretly, some very bad things, so our intelligence agency believes that there is a more than 80% chance that this news is true." ”
"And then? Are they demonstrating against us?"
"I thought, unsurprisingly, that's how it should be. ”

"No matter how beautiful a firework is, it is not perfect without the audience's admiring gaze and exclamation. Pacina stood in the middle of her palace, the shadows behind her filled with all sorts of strange tall figures.
"Go, my people, and bring them fear and calamity, and this fear and calamity will spur this slow race, which has been silent for so long, to the satisfaction of our Creator, to awaken and go in the direction he desires!"
She opened her arms widely, as if she wanted to embrace the ocean in her arms, "The stage has been set up, and the audience is about to be seated, then, as a warm-up, let's put on a little song and dance for them!"
Sea beasts, cyborg lifeforms, various modified beasts, combat creatures...... Hundreds of terrifying creatures follow her orders as they begin to rise from beneath the depths of the ocean to the top of the land, ready for a new invasion.
