The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters - #184 - Chapter 184: Weird War
The dark yellow full moon hangs high in the sky.
The moonlight with a thin layer of blood covered the dream space, revealing madness and distortion everywhere.
The Xiangfeng Commercial Building is right in front of you. On the floors hundreds of meters high, the illusory neon lights and shadows are dyed weird in this other world. A holographically projected phoenix coils around the front of the commercial building, emitting several sharp phoenix calls from time to time.
Shanqing City is too vast. Without knowing what the source of the strange thing is and where it is hiding, Yu Ke and others have the only option to find its traces through observation equipment.
Everyone jumped into the air, and the jetpacks they had put on in advance were activated immediately.
Yu Ke felt a strong push coming from behind him, and his whole body took off, approaching the top of the commercial building.
His eyes fell on the glass wall of the commercial building in front of him, and the silhouettes of everyone could be vaguely reflected on it. But when Yu Ke and others passed by the holographic projected phoenix, Yu Ke immediately took out the black thorn longbow due to the danger he sensed. , shouted,
“Be careful inside the building, there is something strange approaching!”
Almost as soon as the words fell, the glass on the middle floor of the commercial building suddenly shattered, and two giant wings with a few rotten black hairs hanging from them poked out from the left and right sides of the commercial building, carrying the building debris and slapping towards the climbing building from the left and right sides. of people.
The central area even looks like a vulture, with its wrinkled and bald bird’s head rushing out, its beak wide open, and energy gathering inside.
Another giant monster!
Last night’s events greatly increased the fear energy accumulated in Shanqing City, and the weirdness in the dream space was also enhanced.
Yu Ke raised his long bow and frowned, thinking about what method to use.
It is not difficult to deal with this strange monster that suddenly appears. The trouble is that it is too large. If it is destroyed with a more powerful method, it will easily cause the commercial building to collapse and lose the opportunity to observe it from a high point.
However, the surrounding buildings were all tilted, and they had no time to go elsewhere.
“Control the upward direction and leave it to me to handle.”
Perhaps noticing Yu Ke’s hesitation, He Xiong clenched his left fist and stretched it forward. The bright silver ring on his middle finger suddenly burst into blood, and then a large amount of blood spurted out from the ring.
Yu Ke put away his long bow and saw only the majestic blood turned into hundreds of blood threads, mincing the bird-shaped monster that rushed out of the shopping mall in just a few seconds. He connected the areas that were about to collapse and forcibly maintained the stability of the commercial building.
Just by having this control over his own extraordinary abilities, Yu Ke knew that He Xiong must be the best among the Burning Technique level extraordinary people.
He is worthy of being a representative figure of the military in the Sanqing area.
With no danger of getting past the strange bird, the group successfully reached the rooftop of the commercial building.
“The view here is good. Install observation equipment here.”
Wang Falcon looked around and found an open space that was not obscured by rooftop debris, and motioned for Yu Ke to come closer.
After taking out the equipment that had been assembled in advance in the imprinted space, the special service members in the team who knew how to operate the equipment quickly stepped forward to take over the control and began to debug the lens data.
“The focus is on the city center area. There must be a reason why Jinglian Dao placed the strange Buddha there. I think the source of the strange things is most likely hidden near there. In addition, you should pay special attention to some occurrences during the observation process. The location of the vision.”
Due to time constraints, He Xiong stood next to the observation equipment with a telescope in hand. While observing the surrounding situation, he constantly reminded the team members of the regional characteristics of possible sources of weirdness, hoping to lock in the target as soon as possible.
At the same time, Yu Ke and others took the time to drink another potion.
Although the dream space does not belong to the same space as the dream created by the dream weaver spider, they both rely on the ability of the dream weaver spider to stay in the dream. Once the medicine loses its effectiveness, it is likely that it will be impossible to return to the dream from the dream space.
Yu Ke glanced at his watch. It was almost ten o’clock.
The observation equipment only requires two people to operate it. Others, including Yu Ke, were not idle either. Instead, they each took out their portable telescopes to check the situation in nearby neighborhoods and prepare for the next action.
With his right foot on the edge of the rooftop, Yu Ke held up a telescope and observed the strange distribution near the commercial building.
With his help, he quickly found several monsters in the area close to the city center. They were wandering on the streets. They were similar in type to the smoke-burning ghost Yu Ke first encountered. There were also a few monsters with the ability to fly a little further away.
There is no doubt that these are all weird things born from fear, and what Yu Ke wants to try to find is existence similar to the Wei Buddha, or traces of the activities of the Pure Lotus Tao cultists.
Every time a part of the forest spirit’s power is recaptured from the core members of Pure Lotus Dao, the mark will be strengthened by one point.
From natural energy to imprinted space, in Yu Ke’s eyes, the forest mark is equivalent to a piece of equipment that can grow, not to mention that it is also a covenant between himself and the forest spirit, which cannot be overemphasized.
Long~Long~
While Yu Ke was busy looking for the target, the roar of a helicopter propeller suddenly came to his ears.
This is a fantasy space, where did the helicopter come from?
Turning his head to look in the direction of the sound, he saw the outline of an armed helicopter emerging from the rooftop of a commercial building. At first it was just a blurry image, but as time went by, each part became more real, until the pilots in the cabin were all becomes extremely clear.
At this moment, a dozen figures appeared on the rooftop. Some of them set up heavy snipers to look for suspicious targets, some controlled drones for cruising, and there were also personnel responsible for communications, sitting in front of the communicator. The mouth keeps opening and closing.
Yu Ke and others were standing beside them, and there were even several figures overlapping each other. However, the members of the Disaster Prevention Bureau in the real world obviously couldn’t see them and were just busy minding their own business.
“Look, not only here, but the streets under the shopping mall are also changing. The real world and the dream space are overlapping, and monsters are about to come to the real world to cause destruction!”
Wang Falcon on the other side noticed something strange and quickly realized the problem.
The monsters had just appeared when they entered the dream space. According to past situations, the monsters would first linger in the real world until the space barrier was completely eliminated, then they would really come and wreak havoc on the real world without restraint.
The current scene in the real world appears in the dream space, which undoubtedly means that the two spaces that should be independent are gradually getting closer.
The space barrier that was supposed to block traffic was eroded under the influence of unknown forces. Yu Ke and others were not weird, so they could only watch the weird monsters all over the dream space enter the real world.
In a way, this isn’t a bad thing.
Because in the process of a large number of strange monsters crossing the space barrier and coming to the real world, corresponding changes will occur inside the dream space, and the source of the strange monsters will inevitably take action.
“Found it! Sir, we found the source of the suspected strange energy, right in the city center!”
The team member who controlled the observation equipment shouted with excitement, and everyone gathered around. Yu Ke approached the screen extended from the equipment, and when he saw the picture above, he couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.
According to everyone’s prior speculation, Jinglian Dao is probably using the strange source that creates the dream space to create the strange Buddha. This means that where the strange Buddha is located, the location of the strange source is most likely nearby.
Facts have proved that this inference is accurate!
The picture captured by the equipment is located in Zhilan Square behind the mysterious Buddha.
There are black and purple clouds gathering in the sky over that area, and countless black shadows are wandering among them. Unfortunately, the buildings are too dense, and the light and shadow in the dream space are extremely chaotic, making it difficult to see the specific situation clearly. .
“Let’s go to the target area immediately!”
Without any unnecessary nonsense, He Xiong directly issued the order for the assault.
Although there is no guarantee that that place is 100% the source of the weirdness, time is running out now. At least Jingliandao is in that area. No matter how bad it is, they can kill this group of “traitors” who are helping the strange space monsters to harm the world!
At this time, nearly fifteen minutes have passed since they entered the dream space. The average team member has seventy-five minutes of activity time left, and Yu Ke and the others have nearly a hundred minutes.
It seems to be plenty, but in fact it also includes the time required for them to withdraw from the dream. In fact, there is not much left.
Resolutely abandoning the observation equipment, and relying on some energy left in the jetpack, the group turned into extreme athletes on the spot, leaping from the top of a commercial building hundreds of meters high, gliding through the airflow, and flying through the gaps between nearby tall buildings. Pass by.
This method can save a lot of time on the road, but it may be a bit troublesome when landing. Fortunately, the people present are all elites. If it were anyone else, the moment they jumped out, a carousel of memories from the first half of their life would start playing in their minds. .
Yu Ke took the lead as usual, and this level of rapid descent was also quite exciting for him.
On the way, I even passed by an armed helicopter flying in the real world. I could still see the driver moving the joystick, but I didn’t know what he was talking about.
“This is Fire Bird 3. It has arrived at the target location. Please give instructions!”
His eyes swept through the various data on the instrument panel at an extremely fast speed, and the driver reported in a deep voice.
“Immediately support the battlefield and eliminate the monsters moving on the streets.”
The commander’s order came through the communication channel, and the pilot immediately pressed down on the joystick. Like an osprey hunting for prey, the armed helicopter circled half a circle in mid-air and then descended rapidly, quickly locking on to the attack target.
In the deserted streets, dozens of ferocious dogs and beasts the size of adult brown bears were running wildly, and on their backs were riding big-headed ghost babies wearing only short coats and covered with black birthmarks.
They shook their heads, cried loudly, and ran through the streets with zombie-like dogs and beasts, destroying everything in sight.
In particular, green plants, stray cats and dogs and other creatures are their primary targets.
In the houses with closed doors and windows on the street, residents hid behind the windows and observed the situation outside through the gaps in the curtains.
Although the news of the Cataclysm Era has already spread throughout the world through the Internet, hearsay or videos on the screen are not as shocking as personal experience.
Not to mention that the people living in Shanqing City are used to a stable life.
In the event of a sudden disaster, the spread of panic is inevitable.
This also indirectly caused the speed of the changes in the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts to reach a new stage. At least before tonight, there had never been such strange group actions.
Fortunately, with Yu Ke’s reminder, the Shanqing City Disaster Prevention Bureau made a lot of preparations in advance.
More than a dozen missiles shot out from the bomb nests mounted on both sides of the helicopter, bombarding the herd from above.
Nearly a third of them were killed in just one round, while the remaining big-headed ghosts and dog beasts had no intention of dodging. They jumped out from the splashing smoke and roared at the armed helicopter, jumping and trying to launch an attack. .
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Snipers deployed on nearby high-rise buildings in advance killed these monsters one by one.
The door of the armed helicopter also opened at this time, and special operations team members wearing heavy individual armor descended from the sky, holding weapons and running to join the battlefield, cleaning up those fish that slipped through the net.
There are not many extraordinary people in Shanqing City. Now that the top experts are all in the dream space, the remaining power is stretched thin. There are too many important targets that need to be guarded, and they can only rely on the armed forces composed of ordinary people to protect them. City.
Similar battle scenes occurred in various urban areas of Shanqing City, and the intensity of the battle was far beyond expectations.
When the situation in each urban area was summarized to the command department within the Disaster Prevention Bureau, the senior officials of the Disaster Prevention Bureau discovered that both the number and intensity of monsters had increased dramatically compared to the past.
The ghost-patterned rhinoceros, as huge as a hill, overturned the tank that was holding its position, and was blasted into pieces by two armor-piercing bullets. The armor-clad skeleton tried to rush into the residential area, hit the armored vehicle head-on, and was blown off by the machine cannon installed on the top. Legs; the strange ray-like tentacles passing by in mid-air rolled up a dozen combatants and stuffed them into their mouths, and in the next second they were locked by fighter planes and bombarded in the air!
There is no doubt that this is a war between humans and monsters!
Even if human beings can barely control the situation at the moment, if the dream space cannot be solved, then the situation tonight will be repeated every night in the future.
All Shanqing City officials can do now is to hold on to the city as much as possible and wait for good news to come from the Fantasy Space.
At 10:15, the mysterious Buddha appeared again in the city center, but this time it did not immediately start to destroy the city. Each of its four arms produced magic formulas, and the many giant legs on the lower body were overlapped together, as if they were meditating. , entrenched in front of Zhilan Square in an extremely strange posture.
There was no way to consider economic losses at this time. The evil nature of Jinglian Dao had already been proven in Beijing and Hangzhou.
Several fighter planes immediately bombed the area where the mysterious Buddha was located.
However, to everyone’s surprise, the strange Buddha who was still rampant in the city last night did not come to the world again tonight. Its body was still in the dream space, and what appeared in the world was just an illusion.
Not only that, just above its head, black and purple clouds continued to gather, and dark resentful spirits could be vaguely seen lingering in it. You didn’t need to think about it to know that there must be a conspiracy brewing.
At this critical moment.
Yu Ke and others finally entered the city center and arrived near Zhilan Square.
