Numerous fighter jets whistled as they arrived over the Eastern Sea.
“Command room, command room, Berserk Iron 1, has arrived at the destination.”
“Command room, command room, Berserk Iron 2, has arrived at the destination.”
“Command room, command room, Sandstorm 1, has arrived at the destination.”
…
Under the sea surface, three massive shadows were moving rapidly towards the coast.
In the center was a level-two monster flanked by level-one monsters.
A level-two monster was twice the size of a level-one monster. Naturally, its destructive power was even more terrifying, as seen with its destruction of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace..
In the command room of the Eastern Sea Military Command, everyone was busy.
The image on the huge screen was synchronized with the satellite. The officers stared with grave expressions, unmoving.
One of the officers picked up his communication device and said in a serious tone, “Berserk Iron, Sandstorm, listen up. You can’t let the monsters move ashore. You must stop them with everything you have.”
After giving the order, the fighter jets in the sky quickly locked onto the monsters below and pressed the missile launch button.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Multiple missiles flew towards the monsters, causing massive explosions.
In an instant, flames soared and illuminated the night sky.
…
On land, officials were evacuating the residents in good order.
Many people were asleep. They were grouchy after being suddenly woken up.
However, when they heard the explosions coming from the sea, they immediately settled down.
Explosions resounded across the sea, each more intense than the last.
The military was actively preventing the monsters from reaching the shore.
To not cause panic among the residents, the officials told them that Western countries had suddenly launched an attack.
According to the news and major media outlets, everyone had heard of the conflict between Xia country and the Western countries.
So, no one doubted the officials. Instead, they all cooperated with the official arrangements.
…
“Command room, command room, Berserk Iron 1’s missiles have all been launched. Over!”
“Command room, command room, Berserk Iron 2’s missiles have all been launched. Over!”
“Command room, command room, Sandstorm 1’s missiles have all been launched. Over!”
…
Under the rain of missiles, the three monsters finally stopped advancing.
But, they were less than two nautical miles from the coast.
Now that the jets had launched all the missiles, they were no longer a threat to the monsters.
However, the monsters’ defensive power was formidable.
They were completely unscathed under the repeated bombings of the missiles.
“Berserk Iron, Sandstorm—you did well.
“Now, return quickly to reload your ammunition.
“Chasing Wave and Charge are on their way. They’ll take over.”
An order came from the command room.
The dozen fighter jets in the air immediately changed directions, preparing to return to reload.
At this moment, several energy waves suddenly shot out from the sea below.
The high-density energy waves destroyed half of the dozens of fighter jets.
The moment the energy wave touched a fighter jet, it melted into molten iron.
In the command room, the air instantly turned silent at the sight of this.
“Berserk Iron, Sandstorm—come back quickly.” The senior officer suppressed his grief and shouted at the communication device.
At the same time, he ordered the troops deployed on the shore to fire shots to cover the retreat of the fighter planes.
After receiving the order, the rows of armored vehicles on the shore moved their honeycomb-shaped cannons towards the monsters and fired cannonballs.
They were not as powerful as the missiles carried by the fighter aircrafts, but there was much more of them.
Covered by countless cannonballs, the few remaining fighter planes finally returned successfully.
After a while,
Chasing Wave and Charge arrived in the sky and launched missiles at the monsters.
Right now, the military was not thinking about eliminating the monsters. They had the means to, but it came at too high a cost.
Furthermore, without?that?person’s permission, they could not give the order to do so.
There were many ways to kill monsters, but each method would destroy both sides.
Using Nuclear weapons was the most direct and efficient way to kill them, but the nuclear pollution from the bombing would be a problem.
The Eastern Sea was a holiday resort by the sea.
In this city, from the government to the residents, their primary income came from tourism.
If they were to use nuclear weapons, people would no longer be able to visit this area.
The government would lose a large portion of their finances, and the residents would lose their income. How would the city develop? How would people live?
Given this, nuclear weapons had to be used with caution in unnecessary situations.
Other than nuclear weapons, there were other methods. However, due to various considerations, they had to be put aside for now.
At this moment, Wang Zhixing’s family of four settled in a room in the Eastern Sea Military District.
Huan Huan had fallen asleep in Lin Juan’s arms.
Wang Jiajun and Wang Zhixing sat on the benches, each with their own thoughts.
At this moment, a senior officer walked in.
“Hello, my name is Su Zhiyong,” the senior officer introduced himself.
“Officer Su, what’s going on?
“How can such a creature exist in this world?” Wang Jiajun asked hurriedly.
What happened that night had affected him greatly.
Su Zhiyong said patiently, “Sir, don’t be agitated. I will tell you what you want to know.”
“Okay, I’m not agitated… not agitated!” Wang Jiajun took deep breaths, trying to calm himself down.
On the other hand, Wang Zhixing was relatively calm. At the same time, he was also curious about the unknown monster.
Wang Jiajun calmed down.
Su Zhiyong said, “Before I answer your questions, let me tell you something.
“Other than your group and those people who returned in helicopters, everyone else at the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace has died.”
Wang Jiajun’s expression didn’t change much after hearing that. It was as if he already knew about this outcome.
Wang Zhixing, at the shore, had used the Aura Examination Technique to survey the area. But, unfortunately, he couldn’t see the aura of any living people.
Therefore, his expression did not change either.
Su Zhiyong didn’t overthink their reactions. He continued, “We call the giant creatures you saw monsters.
“As for their history, according to the data we gathered, they can be traced back to a billion years ago.”
A billion years ago?
There were no humans back then, right?
They’ve existed for so long?
Wang Zhixing and his son both looked surprised.
Su Zhiyong continued, “Monsters are terrifying creatures. They can destroy the entire world.
“Countries are developing their technology with the goal of eliminating these creatures. ”
Wang Jiajun suddenly said, “Don’t we have nuclear weapons? Can’t nuclear weapons destroy them?”
Su Zhiyong shook his head. “Nuclear weapons can kill monsters, but they’re only effective against monsters below level three.
“For those level-three and above, the monsters possess the ability to absorb nuclear energy. To them, using nuclear weapons would simply make them more powerful.”
Wang Jiajun was shocked.
If nuclear weapons were ineffective, the world would end when level-three monsters appeared.
Wang Zhixing was also exceptionally surprised.
However, he thought about it again.?
Even if nuclear weapons can’t kill them, cultivators can!
When the monsters attack the city, a group of immortal cultivators would suddenly fly out. It would be a spectacular scene!
