Chapter 1078 Pluto awakens and changes occur on the battlefield!
In front of the lightning wall.
The lizard army covered by a white mask keeps advancing.
The heavy tank monitor lizard, which was prominent among the lizards, kept making bursts of threatening roars.
Eight.
This is the number that the defenders on the city wall have to face.
Every lizard that is as tall as a six-story building is already on the verge of being a "monster".
Although it is still much smaller than the monsters in certain Ultraman animations, it only creates a lot more pressure on humans.
After all, this is reality.
There are no large-scale modern weapons.
There is no giant of light holding a divine light rod descending from the sky to save mankind from water and fire.
Sixty city cannons are the only firepower weapon of Qinggang New City!
Once this wall is breached, everyone behind will lose the ability to resist and will be forced to flee.
"How many more shells do we have?"
There were lizards roaring all around, but Commander Edmund surprisingly calmed down.
He keenly observed that the advancement of the light shield was a bit strange. It only expanded to ten meters in front of the lightning wall and then stopped abruptly.
Scattered forward lines appeared one after another, waiting for the heavy tank lizards to come step by step from behind.
"There are .640 pieces left!"
60 guns, 640 shells, that's ten salvos.
Edmund wrote down this number, then gritted his teeth and said: "Stop attacking and wait for my order!"
"What?"
The deputy commander who was responsible for conveying the order was startled.
Although the cannonballs cannot penetrate the light barrier, doesn't stopping the attack mean giving up resistance?
Once the heavy tank giant lizard is allowed to walk in front of the city wall, even if the light shield disappears, it will be difficult for the city gate to withstand the attack.
And if the city gate is lost, there will be no point in causing more casualties.
Qinggang New City will once again stage the drama of predator invasion, and all efforts and construction will return to zero again.
"Listen to him and stop attacking!"
Suddenly, a cold and chilling voice sounded from the communicator on Edmund's waist.
Some are strange and some are familiar.
"I, Hades, as the manager of Clearport, ask you to stop attacking."
Hades?
Is the manager awake?
The deputy commander who was still hesitating trembled, turned around without any hesitation and went to inform the order.
As the commander, Edmund had a deep respect on his face even though he had not seen him in person.
"Master Manager, I'm sorry to disturb you while you are sleeping."
"I have no other way to break the situation. Please forgive me for my ignorance and recklessness!"
"Oh"
Dry laughter rang out from the communicator, making Edmund's skin goosebumps.
In terms of age, Hades is an old man who has lived for hundreds of years.
Although he spends most of his time sleeping, it cannot be concealed that he is a monster that has transcended the ages.
"Okay, compared to those old guys in the shelter, you still remember the orders given by me as the manager."
"I will ask Tang En to send a gift later. You can find a way to get it into this light barrier and escape."
"You can escape. As for what happened before, let's forget about it. Maybe you can continue to be the lord of this new city!"
"If you can't escape, that's your fate. You can't blame others."
"clear!"
The respectful look on Edmund's face became even stronger, and he was not dissatisfied with Hades' order at all.
In fact, this is also the reason why Hades was able to continue to sleep and rule the Sanctuary for a long time.
In addition to the existence of powerful means to turn the tide in this desperate situation, the means of controlling people are also very important.
What happened happened, repentance and punishment cannot change the past.
After making up for the mistakes, those who can stay are capable people.
Only these useful people can continue to develop the shelter, and this is the biggest reason why the old guys in the shelter are so afraid of Hades's awakening.
Useless means elimination!
"Go ahead and let me, the old man, sleep a little longer."
"World changes?"
"Interesting. Interesting!"
On the rooftop of a sloping building in the northern suburbs.
The motorcycle airship landed slowly, taking Sumo and Yehu to stand still.
From here to the edge of the dwarf's mask force field, the straight-line distance is less than forty meters, and the entire battlefield can be clearly seen.
His eyes fell on those huge heavy tank monitor lizards, and Hunter Tiger said nothing.
But from his clenched fists and the color of his skin that started to turn deep red, Sumo could know how much impact this monster had on the bald man next to him.
At the same time, he also roughly understood why the game included humans from Blue Star.
To put it simply, Blue Star humans are equivalent to a universal buffer zone.
It not only reduces the conflicts between humans, but also reduces the disputes between alien races.
I have to say this is a smart approach.
It not only ensures that the number of game players will not decrease on a large scale, but also further intensifies the complexity of the situation.
Sumo even guessed that the reason why the dwarves came to attack Qinggang Sanctuary was not because Tianyuan Territory had attacked Blackstone Camp before, but that they came all the way to take revenge.
But it is influenced by the game. Winning this battle will definitely reward some coveted things.
It may be material or it may be technology.
Just like the last time I participated in the 100,000-level battle in Qinggang City, the game reward treasure box was opened to increase the level of the route.
If successful, the dwarves will surely get what they want!
"If these disasters had not occurred, would the armed strength of the Pingtan shelter be able to cope with this scene?"
"Seriously? Or are you kidding?"
"Of course I'm serious."
"no."
After Yehu finished speaking, his confused expression became even more intense, and he murmured and repeated it again.
"And this is also the reason why I left the underground."
After all, shelters are limited to the attribute of ‘refuge’.
It can never become an armed bunker or a powerful military base.
Force is not the original pursuit of Sanctuary.
Avoidance is the real purpose of construction.
"I can't even imagine what methods we should use to deal with these monsters when they arrive in the western suburbs."
"Hey, don't you have a tactical nuclear bomb in your hand?"
Sumo chuckled and asked in confusion.
Yehu was stunned for a moment.
"You know, but it's too late. There's nothing now."
Sumo nodded understandingly.
"Then do you think the Sunny Harbor Sanctuary still has nuclear bombs in hand and can survive this crisis?"
The bald man who was blowing in the night breeze pondered for a while, and finally shook his head.
"I don't know, but the nuclear bomb is probably out of everyone's hands for the time being. Even if it is available, there is no means to launch it."
"But if you're just talking about getting through this crisis, if they wake Hades, it shouldn't be a big deal."
"Hades?"
Hearing the name again, Sumo couldn't help but be curious: "He alone? With all due respect, one person on this kind of battlefield probably can't bring much change, right?"
"No, you have never dealt with him. You don't know Hades's personality and style, and you don't know how terrifying his methods are."
"And have you ever heard a word?"
"Some people are born for the big stage."
When Hades was mentioned, the always unruly hunting tiger seemed a little afraid and unwilling to recall the past.
However, I realized that now my identity is not only the manager of the shelter, but also a member of the alliance.
Hunter cleared his throat.
"The most active era of Hades was probably the period when the nuclear war ended and the stable period began. It was about 110 years ago. It is estimated that his age should be between 130 and 150 years old. between."
"Of course, I couldn't have experienced that period because I was born more than seventy years later. Everything I know comes from the administrator's notes in the Pingtan Shelter and the records left by the previous administrators. A large part of it is describing the changes Hades has made to this Sunny Harbor City."
"After I was born, Hades had already entered a deep sleep stage. Strictly speaking, I have never even met him in person." It seemed a bit strange to talk about a person who had only been seen in notes and materials, Yehu shrugged. Shrug your shoulders.
"But that's the case. You can also feel his dominance, right? Hades has not managed his sanctuary at all in the past few decades, but Clear Harbor Sanctuary is still developing steadily. Compared with all of us, It returned to the ground faster and established a very large industrial area."
"If the world hadn't suddenly changed and all kinds of weird things happened inexplicably, by the time we discovered all this, Sunny Harbor Sanctuary might already have the qualifications to become the master of this city."
After a pause, Yehu organized his speech and continued.
"Hades himself has a very high intelligence and is an out-and-out genius. He used to be a researcher at the academy, but then he suddenly gave up his career in the academy and returned to Qinggang City without knowing what happened. Nei inherited the management of the sanctuary from his father."
"The location of Qinggang City is not particularly good in Daya Bay, but it is much better than the surrounding Fire Spear City and Gangsanha City. In the early days of Hades' inheritance of power, the powerful forces in these two cities wanted to use their hands and feet to
Reaching over, trying to occupy an enclave here to plunder Qinggang's resources to develop itself."
"But it only took five years and three wars for Hades to cut off all routes of foreign invaders."
"Cut off?" Sumo raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, not only others can't leave, but we can't leave either. Qinggang City has almost become an isolated city."
"I'm guessing it wasn't some kind of biological means?"
"Huh?" Yehu originally wanted to give it a try, but unexpectedly, the ally next to him immediately guessed it.
At this speed, he even suspected that Somo had known Hades' information before and was now teasing him.
"I have not experienced that war, nor have I seen any biological attacks, but according to the preserved information, as long as the creatures are infected by that method, the creatures will not die immediately, but will become as fast as mutants.
Improve physical fitness. When physical fitness improves to a certain level, the creature will immediately lose its mind and start attacking people around it, spreading the virus, and eventually causing exponential spread."
"What the hell?"
Why does this method sound so familiar?
Sumo was stunned, and the thing that humans used to use at sea could not help but come to mind.
‘Biological inhibitors’?
That seems to be the name.
In order to guard against possible large-scale disasters, the shelter is still conducting small-scale secret experiments until now, located in a hidden laboratory under the Triumph Hospital.
It's just that we haven't seen this kind of virus outbreak in the future ruins, and we don't see many people discussing this thing on the World Channel anymore. Sumo has subconsciously thought that the game has intervened, and has removed it.
The risk level has been lowered several levels.
Why, Hades also has biological inhibitors in his hands?
"So what was the solution in the end? How did the virus stop spreading?"
It has begun to spread exponentially, and it is simply impossible to stop it using conventional means.
Unless a corresponding antidote is developed, mild measures will only cause the index to continue to explode.
Somo was very curious about Hades's solution. If he had the antidote, then there would be a solution to the disaster that might come at any time!
However, Yehu's next words made him give up this idea completely.
"What else can we do? Purify all the infected people. I remember it was a nuclear bomb sweep. They attracted the infected people to an open area and dropped dozens of them to destroy them.
What’s interesting is that it was not the Qinggang Shelter that dropped the bomb, but the people from Sanha City and Fire Spear City. They were trying to steal the chicken but not lose the rice. They shot themselves in the foot."
Su Mo's face twitched as he spoke in a flat tone.
This solution was indeed in line with Blue Star's custom at the time, which was to use nuclear bombs to clear the ground when trouble came.
Anyway, the construction standards of underground shelters are set according to nuclear war, so you can just hide inside when cleaning the ground.
As for the looters and wanderers in the city.
It is said that under the attacks of those "madmen", there were almost no living people in the two cities.
"I remember that this incident seemed to have alarmed the people in the academy and sent envoys to Qinggang City. I just don't know what they talked about. Anyway, Hades has not been exposed in public since then.
We have met, and such illegal biological weapons have never been used again. Qinggang Shelter has also entered a stage of rapid development, and its progress has gradually exceeded that of all other shelters in the city."
"Wait a minute. Why did they stop firing? Did they run out of shells or give up?"
Yehu was still continuing the meeting, but he suddenly realized that the sound of shell explosions had been heard for a long time, and he suddenly came to his senses.
At this time, the heavy tank giant lizard had advanced to less than a hundred meters away from the city wall.
As the main siege force, although even the tallest monitor lizards would have difficulty reaching the top of the city wall, it would be enough if they could breach the entrance.
The white light shield flashed twice in a row, suddenly advancing dozens of meters, and the city wall that was originally separated from the outside was also accommodated!
boom!
Seeing this opportunity, the city artillery that had ceased fire unleashed its force, and sixty explosive bombs fell straight into the lizard army.
In an instant, hundreds of small masks opened.
However, all lizards ridden by dwarves were protected inside and did not receive the impact of the explosion.
But those lizards that were not covered by the light shield were in a miserable situation, and were blown to pieces almost at the moment of contact.
"The counterattack has begun!"
Yehu clenched his fists and waved excitedly, as if he had put himself in the perspective of the commander who issued the order.
Unlike the large external light mask, the small light mask held up by the dwarf is not durable.
By the time the city cannon fired its second salvo, many of the light shields were already extremely dim and on the verge of shattering.
In particular, two of the light shields covering the heavy tank giant lizard have even been broken.
Maybe in two or three more rounds, the siege army that seemed so menacing just now will be dispersed.
But it is a pity that the cumbersome heavy tank monitor lizard has already dragged its heavy steps to the gate under the city wall.
Lift paw.
Wave lightly.
The thick wooden door looks like plastic foam, with a huge gap appearing immediately after being photographed.
With another wave, the gap enlarged.
Arching forward, the wooden door collapsed, revealing a five-meter-high empty doorway. Through this, you can already see the Qinggang New City buildings behind!
Ho ho!
The still-expanding large mask was instantly recovered, blocking the city wall from the outside again.
Including the third round of shooting, before the shells could be pushed into the position, the explosion was blocked again.
"What a pity!"
I saw several artillery shells explode nearby, and the scattered fragments flew back into the gap, causing a fatal explosion.
Hunter Tiger made a cry, and his sense of empathy was instantly gone.
But before he could continue to command and criticize from a distance, Sumo, who had sharp eyes, saw the photo mask just being recovered.
It seemed like something flew down from the city wall and flew straight into the lizard position.
There was no reaction and no explosion.
It looked like a stone thrown by someone on the city wall without causing a single wave in the lake.
"Wait. Have you noticed that these lizards seem to be more violent?"
"That's not normal. They broke through the city gate, and they will definitely do it next."
Yehu replied subconsciously.
But just as he finished speaking, an unimaginable change suddenly occurred in the field!
