MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 695 unmoving
Shanghai City is very large, with a total of 16 municipal districts, covering an area of 6,340 square kilometers, but it never looks empty, because this highly developed city has a population of more than 24 million, where to go There are people coming and going, bustling, and the bustling area is full of high-rise buildings and traffic.
It was not until the massive evacuation of the whole territory was started, turning this prosperous city into a silent city, that people realized that the city was so big and so empty.
Up to now, the situation has reversed again. The first batch of cracks that appeared first filled Huangpu Road and quickly spread around, and tended to cover the entire Hongkou District.
It didn't take long for the monsters rushing out of the cracks to fill the area. The huge monsters walked around the tall buildings, making the street lights look like toothpicks under them, and the tiny monsters shuttled between the streets and floors, curious. exploring a whole new world.
When different types of monsters meet each other, sometimes they live in peace, sometimes they fight fiercely, and a roar that seems to never stop resounds in every corner of the city. Because there is no gun smoke to cover up, there is only a strong and pungent **** smell in the air.
Every once in a while, a flare is dropped into this area. After the time fuze ignites and ignites the illuminating agent, the parachute under the flare will open, causing the lighting box to slowly land over the area and spread the incandescent light to the area. The ground, looking up in a dark city, looks like a small sun is falling.
Such a spectacle attracted the attention of many monsters. Like picking up airdropped refugees, they rushed to the location where the flares landed, wanting to find out.
There are also a small number of powerful monsters who are not attracted by the flares. The powerful low-light long-distance vision allows them to see the "giant iron bird" whizzing by overhead. They don't know that it is a reconnaissance plane of the Nandu Military Region. In their knowledge, they must belong to the indigenous creatures of this new world, so they chased away in the direction of the reconnaissance plane driven by curiosity and murderous desire, and a few monsters with flying ability struggled. Flutter your wings, rise from the ground, and go straight to the sky.
But their speed was far behind the reconnaissance plane, and in the end they had no choice but to give up. After returning to the ground, they immediately vented their anger at buildings and other weaker monsters. They didn't know that their relatively slow speed allowed them to temporarily recover their lives. If they could catch up with the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, then they would definitely encounter the over-the-horizon blow of the fighter team during the pursuit, killing them.
The drones are constantly hovering over the sky, sending clear aerial pictures back to the military headquarters and command center.
"Still no orders?"
Yang Xiaoqian looked at the picture in front of him and rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. At this time, it had been an hour since the first crack appeared, but all the troops remained motionless and did not fire a single shot.
It is a good thing that monsters can kill each other, but the degree of killing each other is always limited. Judging from the pictures taken by drones and reconnaissance satellites, most monsters will choose to retreat when encountering more powerful monsters.
Therefore, watching from the sidelines does not mean that everyone can really enjoy watching the monsters kill them all. With the increase of cracks and the increase of the density of monsters, more monsters will only spread to the entire city and outside the city.
If you don’t start to solve some of them now, and wait until tens of thousands of monsters attack the defense line together, even if you can defend the defense line, you will have to pay a heavy price. No matter how valuable missiles and shells are, they will not be worth the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, so it stands to reason that now it should be The bomber brigade and artillery units were sent to attack, but the military region never issued an order to open fire. No matter which unit asked for instructions, the only response they received was "stay still" and "stand by."
"There is no order, just continue to wait." Pei Qingxian stood behind Yang Xiaoqian, also puzzled. Thirty minutes ago, he assembled all the troops in the hunter base, and each team entered their own vehicles. Helicopters to large transport aircraft, from main battle tanks to infantry fighting vehicles, to armored personnel carriers and heavy locomotives, give every monster hunter the ability to maneuver.
The troops that were ready to go waited for half an hour, but did not receive a single order to go to battle.
"Then let's wait. The commander-in-chief is Liu Yuanzhou, there will be no problem, Xiaodan, please make me a cup of coffee." Yang Xiaoqian nodded, and now he is too lazy to think about Liu Yuanzhou's thoughts. Since Liu Yuanzhou chooses to continue to wait, then It means that you can maximize the benefits by continuing to wait. Although Liu Yuanzhou's calculation may not always be correct, the possibility of being correct is definitely much greater than others.
When the crack appeared, Yang Xiaoqian had just fallen asleep. He was awakened just after he put down his heavy work and closed his eyelids. He spent an hour of monotonous and boring in a tense state. Finally, he couldn't bear the sleepiness and needed it very much. Wake up with a cup of coffee.
A few minutes later, when Xiao Dan came over with coffee, Yang Xiaoqian was no longer sleepy. Because of the new news from the staff, three new cracks appeared in Hongkou District. The largest crack reached an astonishing 80 meters high. The widest point is nearly 50 meters. As soon as it appears, all monsters within a radius of 3,000 meters with the crack as the center start to stay away from the area.
According to the experience of defending the southern capital and the information given by Yu Qian, the larger the area of the space crack, the longer it will take for monsters to emerge from it. Correspondingly, the strength of the monster will be stronger, and it is often proportional to its body size.
The last giant crack that appeared in the sky above Nandu was only more than fifty meters away, and a demon dragon was released. The three space cracks that appeared in Hongkou District were all over fifty meters in length.
This is not the most troublesome problem, but what is even more worrying is that the appearance of these three giant cracks obviously stimulated other monsters, causing the monsters gathered in the Hongkou District to flee away from the cracks and gradually converge into one A ferocious torrent surged in the direction of the defense line.
Seeing the aerial footage sent back by the drone, Yang Xiaoqian finally knew why the humans on Earth 2 called this disaster a "magic tide", even Pei Qingxian, a tough guy with iron bones, couldn't help but take a deep breath.
………………
In the headquarters, a thin young man was sitting in a wheelchair. Behind him, on the three-dimensional electronic sand table, countless red dots appeared at different heights and positions. In front of him, thousands of screens from different The angle of view records the tide of magic sweeping away.
"let's start."
he said, and then stood up slowly, standing up straight, and a silhouette appeared on the screen,
