Chapter 188 The Bizarre Beast Tide
"Command post received! You are hereby ordered to closely follow the advancing sea beast队伍 along the way and report their route at all times!"
"Warhawk 3 received!"
The helicopter pilot replied in a deep voice, then asked again, "If any abnormal movements are detected in the sea beast队伍, am I authorized to open fire?"
"Permission to open fire!"
"Yes, sir!"
The helicopter circled above the sea beast队伍, its glaring lights illuminating the hellish scene below.
Those grotesque monsters twisted and huddled together, emitting an extremely strong, fishy stench, roaring with the most insatiable greed towards the human city!
...
Miao Yu stood on the high platform. He saw the high-intensity searchlights several kilometers away. He knew very well that was the location of Warhawk 3, and also the location of the sea beasts!
The lights were moving rapidly towards them. Miao Yu could even hear the ferocious roars echoing from afar in the night sky!
"Hoo...ch..."
"Hoo...ch..."
Many soldiers noticed the ground shaking. Their hearts pounded wildly, and cold sweat broke out on their backs.
Many of them had followed Miao Yu in battles against sea beasts at sea, but bombarding the mutated beasts from warships with anti-aircraft guns was purely overwhelming slaughter! The sea beasts simply couldn't cross the dense lines of fire and board the ships!
But the situation was completely different in the city. There were no heavy weapons in the city like those on the warships that could be fired at will. They needed to forge a line of fire with their own flesh and blood!
It was no exaggeration to say that the heavy firepower in Southern City at this moment was less than one percent of that of the Dongyan fleet!
Although the number of enemies they faced was far less than at sea, the oppressive feeling of facing the monsters directly still caused panic in many people.
Many soldiers already had their fingers on the triggers!
"All garrison commanders of the shelters, listen to my command. You are absolutely not allowed to leave your posts without authorization, and you are not allowed to leave your protected areas to support other shelters without orders!" Miao Yu said in a deep voice. He raised his head and looked at the approaching helicopter light. A huge crashing sound rang out as the mutated sea beasts entered the edge of the city.
Many buildings were collapsing, and ferocious roars echoed through the sky.
"Do not fear, do not be afraid! I promise you, if these monsters truly manage to cross our defense line, at that time, I will definitely fight to the death alongside you!" Miao Yu shouted loudly, "Prepare to fire!"
Crack!
The sound of tanks crushing the ground rang out, and the huge gun barrels were raised, aiming at the horde of beasts below the distant beam of light.
"Tss!"
A large number of white phosphorus bombs fell from the helicopter, all released into the beast tide below. Dazzling flames soared into the sky, forming a piercingly bright spot in the night sky!
"Attack!"
Miao Yu waved his hand, and the five tanks of Shelter 01 simultaneously spewed out huge flames, the roaring shockwaves shaking the air.
Half a second later, a violent explosion occurred within the beast tide 800 meters away from Shelter 01. The moment the heavy shells exploded, they directly dismembered several monsters!
Blood and severed limbs flew, and tall buildings collapsed along with these monsters, flames soaring into the sky!
"Da-da-da!"
The armed helicopters began to strafe wildly, blood splattering in the sea beast群中, the corpses of mutated beasts piling up like mountains!
The first wave of the beast tide, before it even approached the shelter, suffered a devastating blow!
This was a good omen!
But the next moment, the sea beasts scattered and no longer gathered together.
The heavy tanks continued to bombard, but the resulting damage was greatly reduced!
Despite the strong line of fire formed by the tanks and gun-mounted armored vehicles, sea beasts still slipped through the gaps in the line of fire, getting closer and closer to the shelter!
Seeing this scene, Miao Yu said in a deep voice, "Everyone, get ready, the sea beasts are about to charge over!"
Hundreds of soldiers raised the large-caliber assault rifles in their hands, ready for battle!
After the first round of bombardment by the tanks and gun-mounted armored vehicles, less than a third of the sea beasts survived, but even so, there were still nearly eighty of them.
These eighty sea beasts were the largest, and their strength and physical toughness were the strongest. They were like small mountains, shaking the earth as they charged forward!
Da-da-da!
Bullets burst out as if they cost nothing.
A rain of bullets fell in the night sky.
Several more mutated behemoths fell, their blood flowing three hundred meters in front of the shelter.
"Heavy machine guns and light cannons, crossfire, do not allow the sea beasts to enter the 200-meter range of the shelter," Miao Yu commanded in a deep voice.
Under the night, his figure was illuminated by the flames, looking incomparably tall and imposing!
"It doesn't seem as bad as I thought. Am I being too alarmist?" Miao Yu muttered to himself as he watched this scene.
Although these sea beasts had entered the inland city, they were not as cunning or tactically strange as he had imagined.
If they charged head-on, these sea beasts would not be able to break through the artillery defenses at all.
Perhaps it was because there was no beast king in this wave of beasts attacking Southern City?
"Warhawk 1 reports, a sea beast tide has been discovered in area 069. It has landed and is heading towards the city center. According to the route, they will arrive at Shelter 05 in seven minutes!"
Just then, a report came over Miao Yu's intercom system.
"Li Chengren, garrison commander of Shelter 05, prepare for battle!"
Soon, ferocious roars and artillery fire rang out again in another direction!
Reports of beast tides discovered by reconnaissance aircraft continued to come in. In the next seven minutes, six waves of beasts would approach the shelters!
Miao Yu's expression turned solemn. He issued orders for all the garrison commanders of the shelters to prepare their defenses.
And to this day, they had not yet discovered the whereabouts of the beast king.
"These imperfectly mutated beast tides can't break through our defenses at all..." Miao Yu frowned, looking at the tragic scene before him, somewhat puzzled.
If those beast kings were only trying to use these imperfectly mutated beasts to capture human cities, it was a bit too naive. The most advanced human weapons had not even been deployed, and they would be enough to wipe them all out.
Moreover, they had already learned a lesson at sea. Although imperfectly mutated beasts possessed great power, they were just a pile of loose sand without the drive of the beast kings. If the beast kings really wanted to do something to the city, could these monsters do it alone?
"Beast kings... if that's all the intelligence they have, then it would be too surprising for me." Miao Yu murmured to himself, "I have a feeling that something is wrong..."
