Chapter 243: Monster Invasion
The wormhole cracks in the depths of the Pacific Ocean boiled violently like magma eruptions, and hordes of monsters poured out of them, screaming madly and scattering in all directions.
The intrusion sirens in the headquarters of the Shattered Dome are still ringing, and the monsters that used to attack alone in the past are actually attacking in groups this time.
The sheer number of them does not mean that the individual abilities of these monsters have decreased, and the biological signals detected by the reconnaissance satellites show that each red dot is a fourth-level monster with a body size of nearly 100 meters and an unknown special biological ability!
In the past, every appearance of a level 4 monster would cause a bloody storm, either more than one mecha hunter died heroically, or at least one city was destroyed.
The wall of life, which was touted as impenetrable, was useless in the face of fourth-level monsters, which had been proven in Sydney before.
Now such a fourth-level monster actually appeared hundreds of them in one go?
You must know that the Mecha Hunter Project has only built thirty-one mechs so far, and except for the latest fifth-generation mecha Eureka Raider, no other Mecha Hunter has yet to defeat a level 4 monster alone.
In other words, even if they were able to use all the mecha hunters that humans had built so far, it would be impossible for them to reach such an army of monsters!
Not to mention that now there are only four Mecha Hunters left to fight, and the others are either damaged or scrapped, leaving only a pile of broken copper and iron.
Everyone in the Shattered Dome base felt a deep sense of despair, even if all the mecha hunters here were dispatched, it was already a miracle to be able to block two fourth-level monsters, how could they withstand the crazy attack of hundreds of monsters?
"It can't be!" Hearing this, Dr. Herman exclaimed excitedly, "At most, they can appear together at the same time, how can they form an army of hundreds of monsters?" It's absolutely impossible! ”
Dr. Newton, who had previously had synaesthesia with the monster's brain, vaguely guessed what the problem was, and he held his head in despair and said:
"They're coming for me! I was discovered! Those monsters are under the control of a hive-thinking mastermind, and when I was in synesthesia with the monster brain, I was noticed by their mastermind! ”
Herman grabbed him by the collar angrily and scolded, "I told you not to do this!" You killed all of humanity! ”
"I didn't know it would turn out like this!" Newton cried out, "I'm sorry······"
In fact, it wasn't entirely Newton's fault that the pioneer civilization would suddenly send an army of monsters to attack, if they just wanted to catch Newton, it would be enough to send two fourth-level monsters, and there was no need to dispatch so many monsters.
The only explanation is that they have another goal besides Newton, and this goal is the real reason why the pioneer civilization can use hundreds of fourth-level monsters in one go!
The movement of the monster army has also shown this.
"There are only five monsters currently approaching Hong Kong, codenamed Tailed Rat, Leated Turtle, Abomination, Swift Dragon and Poisonous Woman, among which Poisonous Woman is suspected to be a higher-level fifth-level monster, the largest monster we have seen so far."
The adjutant in the command room looked at the data displayed on the computer and said, but this situation alone was enough to make them feel extremely frightened.
Raleigh asked, "Why are there only five?" Did the other monsters attack other places? They want to attack all the coastal cities of the Pacific Rim in one go? ”
If so, that's the worst-case scenario.
When the first monster landed in San Francisco, the U.S. military used tanks, planes, missiles and other conventional military means to fight it for six days, spanning 35 kilometers and destroying three cities before finally defeating it.
The whole process caused countless casualties, and the economic losses are incalculable. Coupled with the subsequent contamination of the monster's blood, all the cities it passed through became a no-man's land, making it uninhabitable not only for humans, but also for other animals.
It's just the destruction caused by a monster!
So if hundreds of monsters were scattered to various cities along the Pacific Rim, how many casualties would be caused and how many cities would be destroyed?
Even if the human army can win in the end, the entire Pacific Rim will become a no-man's land, and the monster blood toxin pollution will extend all the way inland, eventually causing drastic changes in the entire earth's environment, even if the monsters can be killed in the end, human civilization will be finished.
This kind of ending is the most terrifying!
Pantcoster shook his head and said, "Luckily, they didn't. The above-mentioned five-headed monsters broke away from the large army and formed a small team to rush to Hong Kong. The remaining monsters are still gathering near the wormhole, and it seems that they will wait for the monster army to assemble before launching a general attack in one fell swoop. ”
Newton suddenly asked in confusion, "Why are they doing this?" Is there any other place in this world where they need to gather hundreds of monsters to take down? ”
"I don't know." Pantcoster replied helplessly.
Qiao Lu and Liu Peiqiang, who were standing on the sidelines waiting for orders, knew that the place where the pioneer civilization would have to gather troops before daring to attack was undoubtedly the forward base of the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force located in the Hawaiian Islands.
Sure enough, even if the humans in the Pacific Rim world were hidden, it was impossible for such a big movement of the planetary engine fortress to land without completely alarming the pioneer civilizations with a higher level of technology.
This is probably a tentative attack on their part, but the size of the planetary engine makes it necessary for pioneer civilizations that have always looked down on humans to take it a little seriously.
Just a little seriously, he dispatched an army of hundreds of monsters that could easily destroy the human civilization in the Pacific Rim plane, and it seems that the previous pioneers really didn't take the earth into account.
Under the remedial situation, the monsters they dispatched this time seemed to be a bit too much.
Of course, this is still within the expectations of the Wandering Earth Command, and if the pioneer civilization is still silent, it will be unexpected.
"In any case, since the enemy is still only sending a small force over, then we cannot give up defending the city!" At the very least, buying time for people to evacuate is the last thing we can do. ”
Since the number of monsters that have appeared so far is enough to destroy all of humanity, it is no longer possible to save the world by blowing up the wormhole.
Pantcoster has to admit that the last shred of illusions about saving all of humanity by blowing up wormholes with nuclear bombs has also been shattered.
What they can do now is to hold back as many of the five monsters that attacked Hong Kong as possible, and buy time for people to evacuate as much as possible.
That's right, just buying time.
Based on his experience, he deduced that as long as three fourth-level monsters appeared, it would be enough to defeat their remaining four mecha hunters.
Now that there are five monsters, and one of them is an unprecedented level 5 monster, it is definitely not something they can defeat!
"Evacuate the city, block bridges, including non-combatants inside the base, immediately prepare to evacuate the city."
Pantcoster continued to give orders, and finally took a deep breath and concluded:
"The rest, prepare to die with me!"
