Chapter 136 Overwhelming Beast Tide

The Mad Breath Island defense line was still filled with the roar of cannons and drifting smoke. The war had entered a fever pitch. Li Tianran stood on the steel city wall, watching the distant sea, the surface of which had been completely dyed red!

In the past two hours, as many as 270,000 monsters had died on the Mad Breath Island defense line. If the Mecha Warriors hadn't implemented Li Tianran's "steady and sure" combat strategy, this number would probably have doubled.

In the two hours since the Alliance's counter-attack war began, the Mad Breath Island battlefield had the highest number of kills!

"Just fight according to this method, hold the defense line, no monster can break through!" Li Tianran ordered in a deep voice. If they continued to fight according to this trend, the Mad Breath Island defense line had already become a huge meat grinder. As long as the sea beasts rushed up, they would be crushed along with their souls!

The Mad Breath Island defense line was indestructible!

But at this moment, Qin Yiming's urgent and anxious voice suddenly came from Li Tianran's headset.

"Boss, there's an emergency. You'd better come to the monitoring room!"

Li Tianran had never heard Qin Yiming's voice so panicked. He frowned, a bad feeling welling up in his heart. He strode away from the steel city wall.

…

Beep beep!

The electronic door opened automatically after detecting Li Tianran's identity. Inside was a huge wartime monitoring room. Although Li Tianran didn't have monitoring satellites, he had millions of patrol radars. These little things were like the vorticella of a sea monster, distributed in every corner of the world, relaying the clearest real-time information to Li Tianran.

At this time, in front of the central screen in the monitoring room, Qin Yiming's face was pale as he stared blankly at the monitoring screen. Li Tianran noticed that the muscles on his face were trembling uncontrollably!

"What happened?" Li Tianran stood beside Qin Yiming, his eyes falling on the monitoring screen.

The next moment, his expression changed, his brow furrowing!

On the central monitoring screen, a large number of screens showed densely packed, staggering numbers of sea beasts, and the macro monitoring map showed that these sea beasts were advancing towards Mad Breath Island!

The number of these sea beasts was endless at a glance. Thousands of patrol radars couldn't capture the beginning or end of the beast tide. If one word were used to describe the scale of the beast tide now, it would be... overwhelming.

"Two large-scale beast tides have been detected approaching us. The first beast tide, located in front, is estimated to number approximately 2.7 million! It is expected to reach 100 kilometers outside Mad Breath Island in three hours and twenty minutes!"

"The second wave of the beast tide numbers approximately 3.1 million! It is expected to arrive in four hours and fifteen minutes..."

Two million seven hundred thousand!

Three million one hundred thousand!

Hearing these two numbers, Li Tianran's pupils suddenly shrank.

"Nearly six million sea beasts?" Li Tianran turned his head, looking at Qin Yiming in disbelief.

"Yes! And the Alliance's monitoring personnel also issued a warning to us. After their reconnaissance satellites and our double confirmation, the number... is correct!" Qin Yiming said with extreme difficulty.

Six million sea beasts, what did this represent?

In this strategic point recapture battle, the twenty-nation allied forces only had to face about four million sea beasts, but at this time, six million sea beasts were surging towards Mad Breath Island!

"..." Li Tianran clenched his fists in an instant, his brow furrowed.

Indeed, mutant beasts were not a big threat to the pioneers and Mad Breath Island, which possessed super firepower. In front of the pioneers, these mutant beasts were like the difference between ants and elephants, but quantity could cause qualitative change!

Even if there were more ants, they could bite an elephant to death. With more than six million mutant beasts, even if they were tired, they could exhaust the pioneers to death!

Moreover, according to the proportion, there were at least tens of thousands of Beast Kings in this group of six million mutant beasts. The number of God Descent-type and Wisdom Brain-type Beast Kings was basically on par with the current pioneer army. Even if there was some difference in strength, the difference in numbers between the two sides was too great!

So great that it was a little suffocating.

But Li Tianran didn't waste time being surprised, complaining, or panicking at this time. He calmed himself down in a short three seconds and quickly analyzed the battle situation.

"Immediately conduct a simulated battle to see how likely we are to eliminate the opponent with our current military strength!" Li Tianran said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Qin Yiming immediately opened his simulation program. After quickly entering the data, a war against the future began in the program.

"Accelerate!" Li Tianran stared at the screen.

Qin Yiming chose to speed up the simulation progress.

"Continue to accelerate! Ten times the speed, no, twenty times the speed!" Li Tianran urged.

In the program, the camp representing six million Beast Kings and the defense line representing Mad Breath Island began a fierce collision. Soon, a large number of marks representing mutant beasts disappeared, and the green dots representing "warships" on the Mad Breath Island defense line were also damaged.

"Thirty times the speed!" Li Tianran continued to speak.

Under Li Tianran's urging, the acceleration of the simulated battle was slowly increased to one hundred times the speed. Finally, the two big blood-red characters "Failure" appeared on the screen.

"The first simulated battle is over, our defense line has been breached!"

The indifferent mechanical sound sounded, and the blood-colored simulation screen reflected Li Tianran's face.

"Continue the simulation!" Li Tianran said in a deep voice.

A total of ten simulations were conducted. The final result was that the beast tide broke through the Mad Breath Island defense line seven times, and three times the beast tide was kept out at the cost of extremely heavy losses. Although they won, the Mad Breath Island camp in the system was also crippled, which could almost be described as a pyrrhic victory with very little health left.

"A 30% chance." Li Tianran took a deep breath. Even in the face of such a large beast tide, he was confident that he could win, but he couldn't guarantee that his defense line would not be breached!

In other words... if he shrank his forces and recalled all the troops to Mad Breath Island, then this group of beast tides would not be able to break through Mad Breath Island; but if Li Tianran continued to disperse his forces on the huge sea defense line, then he could not guarantee that the defense line would continue to be unbreakable and Mad Breath Island as solid as a rock!

"Boss, this level of beast tide far exceeds our previous estimates. Our defense line will be severely damaged. Shrink the defense line and defend the island!" Qin Yiming's voice trembled.

Shrink the defense line and defend the island...

This could indeed ensure the safety of Mad Breath Island, but in this way, the cooperation agreement between Mad Breath Island and the Alliance would be invalidated. Li Tianran would not be able to obtain the benefits promised by the great powers to help Mad Breath Island build up to the level of a great power, which was unacceptable to Li Tianran.

The fourth era of destruction was about to arrive, and the visions that happened to Han Han made Li Tianran feel deeply worried. In eighteen days, he could not simply rely on his own strength to upgrade Mad Breath Island to a great power level, so he... could not shrink the defense line!
