Chapter 221: Attack on the Behemoth

On that day, humanity finally remembered the horrors that had once been dominated by them, and the humiliation of being imprisoned in a birdcage.

Interestingly, the rooftop that Qiao Lu and Liu Peiqiang rushed to is a famous tourist attraction at the same time, because it can overlook the Sydney Opera House and the Wall of Life at the same time, so tourists often come up to watch.

That's right, the Wall of Life, a coastal defense wall built to defend against monster invasions, has also become a tourist attraction in this Pacific Rim world.

People from all over the world come to the coastal city to admire the majestic walls of the city, confident that the wall of life will protect them forever.

Under this belief, a peculiar religion has even developed among mankind, the worship of the wall, which worships the walls built by humans as a creation of the gods.

Qiao Lu heard someone in the crowd preaching to the tourists:

"Listen, the walls were built by the wisdom of God, and the designers of the walls of life were inspired by oracles. This wall is a miracle and will never be broken! All you have to do is believe in it, and mankind will have eternal peace! ”

Surprisingly, such a clumsy nonsense story has been echoed by many people.

Like pilgrims, these believers bowed down to the nearby wall of life, as if they could step out of the shadows shrouded by alien monsters.

In fact, there are many other strange religions in the Pacific Rim, or many fanatics.

At the beginning of the Mecha Hunter program, they worshipped the current superstars of mech pilots, and they almost worshipped these mech pilots as gods.

After the Mecha Hunter Project was abandoned, humans evolved into two new religions, one of which was the Wall Worship Cult that Qiao Lu saw, and the other was the Monster Cult that also appeared in the movie.

The Cult of the Monsters believed that these monsters came from heaven and that the gods were expressing their displeasure with human behavior. Therefore, it is up to humanity to give up resistance and accept God's punishment in order to be saved.

If the Wall Worship Sect is just looking for spiritual sustenance, the people of the Monster Sect are completely traitors, and there is no problem in catching and shooting targets.

None of it is a good thing anyway.

Suddenly, a loud bang interrupted everyone's prayers, and at the same time a strong vibration was heard from the other side of the wall, causing waves over Sydney Harbour.

"How······ What's wrong? ”

The people around were all looking around in fear, and only Qiao Lu knew that it was that guy who came!

People turned their eyes to the side of the wall of life, only to see a thick smoke billowing up from the wall, and then a fierce giant claw slammed into the wall!

"How is it possible, that city wall is dozens of meters high!" The missionary said incredulously.

It wasn't until the monster's head gradually emerged from the wall of life, casting a huge shadow onto the nearby Sydney Opera House, that people finally had to admit:

"It's a monster!!

A beast of the deep sea, taller than the wall of life, is violently attacking the wall.

Every time it hits, it can set off an earthquake-like vibration around it, and the terrifying loud noises hit the hearts of everyone nearby at the same time!

"Monsters! The monster is coming! ”

"Run!"

······

While most of the people were fleeing in panic, only the missionary remained where he was, muttering to himself in a daze:

"It's going to be fine, the wall of life can't be breached! We are absolutely safe here! ”

He even tugged at the clothes of nearby tourists, trying to persuade them to stay:

"Don't run! Trust in our God! The wall will shelter us! ”

Most of them would just call him a "madman" and kick him away, but there were still a few followers of the Wall Worship Sect who really believed his nonsense and just stayed there and watched the monster crash into the wall.

"Cults are harmful." Qiao Lu said helplessly.

If you don't save yourself, no one else can save you. He and Liu Peiqiang could only assist in the evacuation of other tourists on the rooftop.

Due to the angle, only a handful of shore defense artillery could shoot at the monster.

However, these seemingly bluffing coastal defense cannons are useless, and hitting the monster does not hurt or itch, and it cannot stop it from continuing to destroy the city wall.

Liu Peiqiang, who has rich military experience, saw at a glance: "The firepower of those coastal defense cannons is wrong!" Looks like cutting corners! ”

"Wait, cutting corners?"

Before Qiao Lu could figure out what was going on, the alien monster had completely smashed through the city walls, just like the reinforced concrete was made of foam at all.

On the one hand, because of the huge size of this monster, the impact it brings is extremely terrifying.

But on the other hand, as Liu Peiqiang said, isn't there any problem with this wall of life project?

If it had been known from the beginning of the design that the Wall of Life would not be able to withstand the attacks of these deep-sea monsters, then no matter how stupid the humans in the Pacific Rim world were, they would not have agreed to this absolutely unreliable plan.

This monster is still a level 4 monster that they have seen and defeated, if the wall of life is designed to be unable to place this level of impact, it will be too much of a failure, why should it replace the mecha hunter plan?

Well, there is only one answer.

The Wall of Life was originally designed to withstand the attacks of Level 4 monsters, but in the final implementation process, due to various reasons, it did not meet the requirements of its original design.

In other words, wandering on the earth is equivalent to building more than 10,000 planetary engines, and then finding that it can't be pushed at all!

How could such a mistake occur in a mega-project built with all the world's efforts!?

"It seems that the water in this world is very deep." Qiao Lu looked at the breached city wall and said.

Behind the flashy Mecha Hunter program, the Wall of Life like a joke, and all of this, the Pan-Pacific Defense Corps, which was established under the auspices of several international consortia······

There seems to be a rational explanation for the irrational phenomena that have arisen in the Pacific Rim world.

The Mecha Hunter Project was abandoned because mechs were lost faster than they were manufactured.

But how could this happen if it really put the world's efforts together? Isn't the industrial level of all mankind enough to consume only one or two alien monsters that will emerge from the wormhole at a time?

What really can't afford to lose is the international consortium behind it. They found out that building Mecha Hunters was already a loss-making business, so they decided to terminate the plan.

Then they came up with the Pacific Rim Wall of Life, which was impregnable by design, but in fact was full of holes.

Just think about how much oil and water can be fished from this project, just think about how long the Pacific coastline is.

So the current situation is completely their own fault!
