Chapter 28 City Ruins, Battle of Attack
"Old Lu, did you encounter any accidents?"
Inside the central command vehicle of the convoy, Liu Xu, the "God of War" dressed in a black combat uniform, sat facing several commanders, including Lu Haochuan, the captain of the Tianjian Special Forces.
"Everything is normal. I've swept through the area twice, and the strongest one I found was a high-level beast general, the Blazing Tiger King."
We sweep this road every month; the smart ones have already avoided it.
Team leader Lu Haochuan shook his head; he and Liu Xu were old friends.
The two fought in the military for more than ten years. Although there was a certain gap in their strength and status, they did not have many formalities when they were alone.
"Those lord-level monsters aren't stupid; they'll deliberately avoid this road. The best opportunity for them to make their move is when our convoy passes through the edge of the city."
Of the nine resupply missions the base has undertaken this year, four were attacked by lord-level monsters.
Each time, the losses were considerable.
Your squad is responsible for defending the front section of the convoy. Under no circumstances should any monster of Beast General level or higher be allowed to approach the convoy!
Liu Xu pointed at the display screen and then said.
"The sea is not peaceful either. There are already a lot of monsters gathering in the Huangpu River, and they are still gathering more and more."
After some time, another large-scale beast tide should occur. It's hard to say exactly what level it will be, but the command center expects it to be no less than level two.
It could even lead to a first-level beast tide, or even a catastrophic beast tide.
Our resupply mission is crucial; we absolutely cannot afford any mishaps.
"Understood! Mission accomplished."
Lu Haochuan immediately became serious, his brows furrowing with solemnity.
A Level 1 Beast Tide!
This also poses a significant threat to War Base 003.
Each outbreak of a level-one beast tide means the deaths of tens of thousands of soldiers.
With a king-level beast tide, the war base might even be breached.
"Yes! You know that's good. At the rate at which the sea monsters are gathering, it will take at least another month or two to reach level one."
Those king-level monsters are very intelligent; they won't just sit idly by and wait to die.
Knowing we're resupplying, they might just command a horde of monsters to obstruct us.
City 003 is shrouded in dense fog, making it difficult for satellites to penetrate, but we've still detected a horde of monsters gathering. Be careful later.
Liu Xu's expression also turned serious.
"Don't worry, I understand."
Lu Haochuan nodded. The intelligence of a King-level monster is in no way inferior to that of a human; it is not just about brute force.
The people in the car immediately began to discuss the potential crises and their solutions.
The military had clearly made contingency plans beforehand by bringing out laser cannons.
After finishing the business a few minutes later,
"I've already sent the results of that little guy named Qin Ming to the higher-ups, and I guess they're discussing how to train him."
To be honest, I was quite surprised.
"His growth rate is too fast, and his mental power is ridiculously strong."
After assigning the tasks, Liu Xu smiled and said that he had watched several of Qin Ming's battles through the battlefield camera system of Lu Haochuan's team.
Even he was shocked when he killed those fifty-odd beast generals.
He was naturally pleased that such a prodigy had emerged under his command.
"I know his strength is growing rapidly, and I estimate he will surpass me in a while."
The Heavenly Sword Squad couldn't stop him.
Lu Haochuan said without any surprise.
"Yes, it's good that you're mentally prepared. But even if he grows up quickly, you can still mentor him for a while; he's still a bit too inexperienced."
……
Back in the group, the six members of the Sky Sword Squad reunited.
"Our task is to be responsible for the section at the front of the convoy, which is also the job of clearing the way."
Please be careful and do not stray too far from the convoy area.
If attacked by a monster, kill it as quickly as possible to ensure the convoy passes through quickly.
Our goal is not to fight the monsters, but to leave City 003 area as quickly as possible.
Once we enter the wilderness, no matter how many monsters there are, we will not be afraid.
I'm in tank number one, Yue Shan is in tank number two, Qin Ming, you're in tank number three...
Lu Haochuan began assigning tasks, distributing them in detail to everyone.
"Understood!" X5
Soon, everyone dispersed, each holding a weapon, and sat on top of the rumbling tank.
Qin Ming and his group had already traveled this road several times.
But this time was different; its power was so great that even monsters several miles away could sense it.
Sitting atop the tank, Qin Ming looked into the distance. Through the ruins of the high-rise buildings, he could vaguely see many large figures attracted by the sounds of the convoy, rapidly moving through the buildings.
In the misty sky, a large number of flying monsters circled in the distance.
However, the supply convoy was no less powerful. In addition to various heavy weapons, there were martial artists wielding melee weapons on board almost every few miles.
The ordinary soldiers were also well-equipped, with large-caliber rifles, machine guns, rocket launchers, grenade launchers, sniper grenades, and so on, which broadened Qin Ming's horizons.
After the Great Rebirth, the soldiers' physical fitness was much stronger than before; even ordinary soldiers could use heavy machine guns as automatic rifles.
Rumbling--
The convoy sped through the ruins, shaking the ground.
While Qin Ming and his team were clearing the monsters from the streets, soldiers from the engineering battalion followed behind, clearing the roads as well as the monster corpses.
Otherwise, with building wreckage and monster carcasses everywhere, the convoy simply wouldn't be able to move.
About twenty minutes later, the convoy had covered most of the distance and entered the central part of the city ruins. Collapsed high-rise buildings were everywhere on both sides of the road.
"A large number of monsters have been spotted gathering on the side of the convoy! The monster horde is rapidly approaching the convoy! Prepare for battle!"
Qin Ming, who was constantly on guard and observing his surroundings, suddenly heard a voice in his earpiece.
The atmosphere in the entire convoy immediately became tense. Qin Ming, sitting on the top of the tank, leaped up on the tank turret, twelve flying knives hovered, and hundreds of beast general-level souls surged out from within the Myriad Soul Banner.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Before the tanks and armored vehicles in the convoy could even fire, the heavy artillery cluster at the war base had already opened fire.
Three kilometers away from the convoy, a building ruin was engulfed in flames.
However, due to the obstruction of numerous buildings, this round of bombardment did not inflict too much damage on the monsters, and many monsters still survived.
With this round of shelling, the monsters within a radius of more than ten kilometers of the convoy went completely berserk.
hiss--
Three kilometers away, a lord-level black-scaled python, over eighty meters long and covered in black scales with distinct sea serpent characteristics, coiled on the building ruins, roaring to the sky.
Tens of thousands of snake-like monsters darted rapidly through the building ruins.
Driven by the oppressive aura of the lord-level monsters, a horde of monsters, ten times their size, rapidly converged into a beast tide.
The beast tide surged forth, rushing towards the location of the convoy like a tidal wave.
Two kilometers to the right of the convoy, in the river, a lord-level dragon turtle with a shell diameter of over 30 meters, a head as ferocious as a dragon's head, and even horns, let out a low roar.
In an instant, the calm river surface boiled.
Large numbers of amphibious monsters, such as giant turtles, crocodiles, and snake-like monsters, continuously crawled out of the river.
The tank's main gun roared, producing a deafening sound.
The entire convoy instantly transformed into a steel hedgehog, spewing out countless tongues of fire, unleashing the ultimate power of the firearms at this moment.
Thousands upon thousands of monsters were torn to shreds before they could even get close to the convoy.
Unfortunately, this place is ultimately a city ruin. The numerous tall buildings not only blocked the attacks of guns and cannons, but also provided the monster with the best protection.
Under the cover of the ruins, a large number of monsters continued to rapidly approach the convoy.
Qin Ming's gaze was icy as the twelve flying knives hovering around him shot out, shredding the three swooping iron-winged vultures.
"Full power! Don't linger! Speed up! Speed up! Faster! Faster! Faster!"
