Volume 3: Tide of Gray Mist Chapter 69: In the Name of the Giant Cannon, Tearing the Darkness Apart
"The wave is coming!"
At the end of the sight, a black tide surged in, engulfing everything in its path.
The grass and trees withered and rotted in an instant, buildings collapsed, and the waves were like sticky ink, dyeing the sky and the earth black.
From the far end , the clouds grew darker.
The dark clouds and gray fog on all sides are constantly eroding the Dawn Zone, trying to extinguish this only light of hope.
The light gradually dimmed.
Just as a storm was approaching, dark clouds appeared in the sky above the Dawn District, covering the whole world. The pure white tower in the center of the base city began to glow with golden light, resisting the gray fog from all directions.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, but there were still some rays of light penetrating through and stubbornly falling on the earth.
Spreading to the distance, a strange and evil wave surged under the gray fog.
Their appearance became clear.
With his neck tilted and his limbs twisted and uncoordinated, he shook his head rapidly as he ran.
Skeleton war horses, bone-spurred insects, etc., covered with eerie white bones and with dark pupils, surged forward.
The doorman, the fat zombie, the snake mother, etc., these evil creatures are very inconspicuous in such a super wave, like a drop of water.
Only the three-star evil creatures that are huge in size or can fly, such as the flesh and blood giant, the bone knight , and the strange bird with a human face, appear slightly eye-catching.
But they are still as numerous as ants.
With the naked eye, there are countless three-star evil spirits here that can only be dealt with by strong men from Blue Star!
Medea's teeth were chattering.
"Too many, too many. How many evil spirits are there? How many three-star evil spirits are there?"
"Several million."
Listening to Shi Yunxi's calm tone, Mei Disha was confused. "Aren't you afraid? There are millions of them! And we only have a few awakened ones here. How can we resist them?"
Shi Yunxi just stared at him, silently clenching the scepter in his hand.
"If we can stop it, and the instructor says we can, then we can!"
This kind of blind worship left Medesa speechless, but when she looked at the white-robed figure standing on the high platform in the distance, the tension and fear in her heart were indeed reduced a lot.
Can it be blocked?
Can it create miracles?
She didn't know either, but under such a wave, all she could do was to try her best to resist. Once the defense line was broken, a triple awakener like her would be as small and powerless as an ordinary person.
…
"What the hell! What the hell! What the hell!"
The envoy from the Burning Oasis widened his eyes and couldn't help feeling regretful.
He trembled as he looked into the distance, at the rolling black wave, angrily waiting for Hongyan on the side, "Why is the scale of this wave different from what you said, ah——!"
"This is also the first time we have faced such a wave. Along the way, they have dragged along too many evil spirits. This number..."
Seeing the red rocks was frightening and unexpected.
Yan Xiao was silent.
He rolled up his sleeves and weighed the options secretly.
"Under this kind of tide, it's impossible to break through. I'm afraid we have to fight desperately."
“Damn it——!”
"But why would an ordinary world like Blue Star trigger a wave of such a terrifying scale? This doesn't make sense!"
…
…
The Investigation Bureau has estimated the scale of the wave.
But estimating is one thing, and seeing it with your own eyes is another. Those cold numbers cannot be compared with the great terror that is now upon us!
When the number exceeds a limit, it is enough to destroy everything!
"Chief, we, we can stop it, right?"
"able!"
Director Huang said heavily.
His eyes were fixed on the distance, without blinking, as if he wanted to remember all those hideous and evil faces in his mind.
Some phantoms have appeared in front of me, and I can hear countless evil roars overlapping each other.
Under the extreme number, the impact of reason has crossed the long distance and is already coming towards you.
But, under the light of dawn, it quickly melted like ice and snow.
Director Huang looked around and saw that the ordinary investigators who had not yet awakened did not show any abnormalities, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At least, their sanity is not affected and they can exert their full fighting power.
"Report distance."
"Yes, the front of the wave is only 7.8 kilometers away from our first line of defense."
"7.6 kilometers."
“7.3 kilometers.”
Listening to the report from his deputy, Director Huang remained calm and waited for a while before saying, "Begin the lightning strike tactic!"
Suddenly, the wings of the drones that had been prepared at various standby points began to rotate. With a buzzing sound, the silver-white drones took off into the air and flew towards the black waves in the distance.
The lightning strike tactic originated from the institute's "Thunder Talisman" technology.
After obtaining the Xinhuo style equipment, the Donghuang Research Institute did not stop its research on various technologies. Based on the thunder talisman and combined with drone technology, it created the current tactical weapon - the thunder strike drone.
Blue stripes are engraved on the silver-white fuselage.
At the moment before takeoff, the awakened one injected life energy and used it as a fuse to ignite the flying drone. Stripes on the drone's fuselage were flowing with a deep blue halo.
Buzzing, piercing into the dark night sky.
Flying towards the front of the wave a few kilometers away.
Director Huang stared intently, his hand resting on the protective wall, leaving a faint palm print on the wall. He still didn't notice it, but just stared into the distance without blinking.
Getting closer!
A thick bone spur whizzed through the dark sky and pierced into the fragile drone body, piercing it through.
With a loud bang, a ball of azure lightning bloomed in the distant sky.
Director Huang held on tighter.
The flying speed of the drone is not very fast, so it is almost impossible to avoid evil long-range attacks such as bone thorn insects and strange lanterns.
But, the evil ones are chaotic and unintelligent creatures!
They only hunt and kill all living things based on instinct, but drones are lifeless and are just dead things.
A few were attacked and crashed in mid-air, but many more still arrived at their designated destinations.
"Crushing strike!"
"Crushing strike!"
"Crushing strike!"
The drone hummed, and the blue halo engraved on its fuselage became brighter, and it rushed into the surging black wave with a roar.
Lightning exploded.
The dazzling blue light can still be seen from several kilometers away, as bright as fireworks in the night sky.
Director Huang held the telescope in his hand and stared intently, and saw the hideous evil creatures being burned in the azure light of lightning.
A strange and evil star turned into smoke.
The two-star evil fell down, charred.
This killing power is much stronger than the initial thunder talisman! The thunder strike drone has been verified, and countless evil spirits have been killed under the thunder strike tactics.
However,
Huang Hongtian saw that the gap in the wave created by the azure lightning was filled by the surrounding evil spirits after only a dozen seconds.
The black wave still rolled in, without any sign of diminishing.
There were too many of them, and the lightning was bright, but it was instantly covered by darkness.
…
"How could it be!"
Yan Xiao’s eyes widened.
When the magical drone took off into the sky and when the brilliant lightning burst out, hope ignited in his eyes, but then dimmed in an instant.
He turned around and looked at Hongyan, "Hurry, keep going! Bring us more drones like these!"
Hongyan smiled bitterly, "This type of lightning strike drone is very expensive and the process is complicated. There is no way to mass-produce it through an assembly line, and it is also a consumable."
It cannot be said that the lightning-strike drone is not powerful.
It’s just that the number of waves is too great, beyond imagination.
at this time,
At the front of the wave, some flying evil creatures had left the main group behind and were flapping their wings towards where humans were gathering.
Two-star evil flesh and bone bird.
Three evil stars and strange birds with human faces.
They are like a few drops of water flying in front of the waves.
The awakened ones on the front line are responsible for dealing with it.
"brush--"
Medesa held a sword, and when a strange bird with a human face swooped down, a dazzling sword light burst out, and she pierced the bird's eye socket with one sword. Then she gracefully avoided the corpse of the strange bird that swooped down due to inertia.
He made a sword flower and continued to kill the flying evil spirit.
After dozens of seconds, the battle was over, and the ugly and hideous corpses gradually turned into smoke in the sunlight.
Metissa retracted her sword.
There were no wounds on her body, and the consumption of her life energy was under her intentional control, keeping it as low as possible.
However, there was no sign of relief on her face, only growing heavier.
"What we have encountered is only a tiny part of the wave. What will happen when the whole wave comes?"
She couldn't think of any possibility of resistance!
I couldn't help but despair.
He looked at Shi Yunxi again and saw that although her expression was solemn, it seemed to be within the normal range.
"Do you have any ideas?"
"have."
Shi Yunxi said, "The instructor has already formulated a strategy. What we need to do is to hold our posts on the defense line and protect this position!"
Her mission was called "Protecting the Cannon Position."
It is a task of great importance.
Shi Yunxi probably knew the reason. She turned around and looked at the huge monster standing on the hillside behind her, then looked away.
With determination, face the waves coming from afar.
No matter who it is, no matter which one, no one can pass by them!
The wave is getting closer.
The earth was rumbling and shaking, the sky and the earth were getting darker, and the hideous monster in the waves in the distance was clearly visible.
The overwhelming oppression made it almost impossible for everyone to breathe.
Relying on the last bit of faith and will, he is struggling to hold on.
The messenger from the Burning Oasis turned pale.
Medesa's teeth chattered as she looked towards Shi Yunxi.
Director Huang still looked straight ahead, expressionless.
Not far from him, a figure in a black coat and carrying a broad sword suddenly spoke in a cold and unwavering voice, "The time has come, prepare to fire!"
"Ready to fire!"
"Ready to fire!"
"Try my giant cannon, Master Wang!"
…
The front of the line.
Medesa once again killed the evil spirits with her sword. She couldn't remember how many she had killed and was already gasping for breath.
However, these evil spirits that were killed were like a drop in the ocean compared to the rolling waves in the distance.
The hand holding the sword was also shaking slightly.
The ferocious face reflected in his eyes continued to grow larger.
suddenly,
boom!
A beam of azure light appeared, piercing through their heads and heading straight for the surging waves, the area where the evil spirits were most densely packed.
The noise was deafening and a dazzling blue light filled the entire field of vision.
The strong wind blew up Medesa's long hair, and she forced herself to open her eyes.
In the field of vision, shrouded in the brilliant blue light, those hideous evil creatures quickly melted away like ice and snow.
One piece at a time.
A giant shadow several dozen meters tall in the distance howled, its body twisted, shattered, and submerged in the dazzling blue light.
Strong winds, heat waves, and shock waves came one after another.
The soldiers hid under the shelters to protect them from shock waves, and when the deafening roar gradually faded away, they came out again. A huge arc-shaped ravine appeared in their eyes, with the black wave cutting off a piece in the middle.
Further away, the dark clouds covering the sky were shattered under the bright light column.
A huge gap was opened.
Among them, the sun shone.
