PDLP Chapter 303 Disaster Moon
Chapter 303 Disaster Moon
The alarm sounded in Moon City, and the people of the entire city anxiously put down what they were doing and watched as squads of guards passed by.
The broadcast began, urging all civilians who were unable to resist to immediately take cover inside their homes.
As a result, the city descended into chaos. People packed their belongings, returned home, locked their doors and windows, and brought out their hidden weapons. Panic spread throughout the city.
Ten minutes ago, Hu Hai's office received a radio broadcast from Mengcheng.
The text above contains only four words: "Kuroshio Outbreak".
His fingers twitched, and cigarette ash fell onto the table, burning a large hole in the document.
That was a battle plan that had been prepared long ago.
He pressed the red alert to activate citywide alert, put on his military uniform, and walked onto the original city wall.
When he arrived, a group of soldiers were already fighting the mutants at the outer perimeter of the iron fence.
The sonic waves emitted by the divine punishment caused all the mutants in Mirror State to riot, and the monsters that were closest to them launched the first attack on the base.
Seven or eight mutants shrieked, trying to break through Moon City's defenses.
Machine guns were firing at the extra iron fences that had been built.
The specially modified bullets each had an explosive effect, shattering their bodies one by one.
This is just the vanguard; the real Black Tide has yet to arrive.
The reinforced city walls, rows of cannons aimed at the outside world, and all soldiers and superhumans were ready.
The first wave of mutants has been killed, and peace has returned.
Hu Hai looked at the images transmitted from the drone in his hand, but his expression gradually became serious.
Dense dark clouds obscured the sunlight, the air pressed down heavily, there were no insects chirping or birds flying, only the suppressed breathing of soldiers and the sound of machine guns being reloaded, a suffocating, deathly silence, like the calm before a storm, enveloped the entire Moon City.
A muffled rumble seemed to echo in the distant sky, and the tremors between heaven and earth caused the platform beneath our feet to emit a low hum.
Soon, even the pebbles on the city wall began to vibrate.
Hu Hai put down the machine in his hand and looked out into the world with his deep eyes.
In the farthest distance visible to the naked eye, a black shadow rises from the horizon, gray and covered with dust and debris, like a wave crashing in from the sea, writhing and rising higher and higher.
Trees and houses fell in droves, then were silently swallowed by the waves, leaving not a single fragment behind.
It wasn't until the road was submerged and the black water spread that people realized it wasn't seawater at all.
—It was not a massive horde of thousands upon thousands of mutants piled together.
Like a flood bursting its banks, tens of thousands of monsters surged toward the base. They came in all shapes and sizes: some were hunched over like apes, some had compound eyes, and some were small, bird-like mutant animals huddled together with mutant humans larger than tanks.
The roars, howls, and screams of the mutants converged into a destructive sonic wave that instantly drowned out all the alarms.
They coalesced into an endless, foul-smelling black tide, surging madly toward the base.
After a warning bell rang, the largest black tide in human history swept across the front lines.
—The "Disaster Month" has arrived.
"Fire!!!" the soldiers on the front lines shouted at the top of their lungs!
Dozens of machine guns opened fire simultaneously, firing bullets as if they were free.
At the longest range, the mutants in the front row are the first to be hit, either by having their heads blown off or their limbs severed.
They fell to the ground, but in an instant they were trampled underfoot by their kind behind them and swept into the wave itself.
Then came a row, then another batch, endlessly, like surging waves.
The machine guns didn't need to be aimed at all; enemies were everywhere they went, and the soldiers' hands were already numb from the vibrations.
"Spread out in a defensive line!"
Another ability user on the front line, with trembling hands, used his ability to erect a one-way air wall only 100 meters away.
Then another superhuman behind him put his arm around his shoulder and activated his superpower.
His special ability is to amplify the abilities of other people with special abilities.
A flash of white light appeared, and the air wall suddenly expanded tenfold, blocking everything from top to bottom, becoming even more solid.
The black tide slammed violently against the air wall, and the excessive speed caused the front row that hit the wall to turn into a puddle of mud.
The monsters in the back row also charged forward like madmen. When their path was blocked, they climbed up by stepping on their companions' bodies, densely covering the invisible wall.
The superpowered individual gritted his teeth and persevered, refusing to let the air barrier shatter.
"Reload! Reload!"
Boxes of bullets were opened, and the machine guns, fired incessantly, were already hot to the touch.
The snipers on the other wall behind also opened fire, firing from a distance.
However, the number of mutants they killed was far less than the number that attacked.
Soon, the mutant's height exceeded the air wall, and it fell from above the wall.
"Kill the ones in front first! Don't let them get any closer!" the leader in the front row shouted.
Meanwhile, Hu Hai was directing operations from the rear, and a soldier beside him nodded to him: "Lord, the planes are ready."
"Deploy!" he ordered.
Twenty drones loaded with bombs took off and dropped explosive charges on the Kuroshio behind them.
The explosive charge exploded as soon as it hit the ground, and with a series of loud bangs, dust mixed with the limbs of the deformed man exploded.
He looked at the situation ahead, his expression extremely grave.
Can't stop it.
That line of defense ahead is absolutely unstoppable!
Once the Black Tide breaks through the defenses, the soldiers in front may not even have a chance to escape.
Therefore, every soldier standing on the front line signed a waiver of life and death before going into battle, and when disaster strikes, they will inevitably be the first to sacrifice in Moon City.
Then came them.
Hu Hai gave the order: "Send all the ability users in the front row up to provide support!"
"Yes!"
Between the first line of defense and the city wall, there are countless traps and mechanisms buried along the way, and only one tunnel leads to the front.
Therefore, there is currently a group of people with supernatural abilities inside the tunnel.
When the first line of defense can no longer hold, everyone will leave through this tunnel and detonate the sinkhole bomb.
Upon receiving the order, more than a dozen people with superpowers immediately climbed onto the iron net and launched an attack.
These are all ability users who can launch long-range attacks; one hundred meters is the limit for most of them, and it is also the distance they have carefully calculated.
Flames, sand, plants—all sorts of supernatural abilities were unleashed, and the diverse powers immediately brought different turning points to the battlefield.
The first batch of explosives was quickly deployed. Although this tactic could delay the mutants' charge into the city, it was ultimately not enough.
Soon, more and more mutants climbed over the invisible wall and rushed towards the first line of defense, only to be firmly blocked by the ability users.
"Holy crap! This is terrifying! Tan Ling, can we still go home?" A lively male voice rang out as he shook the girl next to him and shouted.
Tan Ling punched him in the backhand, and her ears finally quieted down.
Based on their usual way of getting along, there should have been a few warnings after that punch, but the scene before her eyes left Tan Ling speechless.
Yan Shuzhou frowned, looking worriedly ahead: "Is it hopeless?"
Hu Hai then realized that the three ability users that Miao Yin had brought had all come up.
"We can't stop them. If this continues, the first line of defense will definitely be breached."
A soldier nearby chimed in, "Besides, the invisible wall can only last for two hours. If it continues to be violently attacked like this, the time will only be shorter."
"Tsk." The girl in the punk shirt clicked her tongue heavily. "Alright, no need to say more, let's go to the front line."
Soldier: "I'll take you to the tunnel!"
"No need." Tan Ling stepped onto the city wall, her short hair tucked behind her ears, revealing two black earrings and a beauty mark at the corner of her eye.
She raised her hand, the spider ring on her index finger reflecting a cold light.
The temperature plummeted the next second.
Crystal-clear snowflakes fell, creating a long ice and snow corridor in the air, stretching two hundred meters forward from her feet all the way to the defense line.
"Walk."
"okay!"
Song Qiming went up and slid down an ice slide, then ran forward.
As Tan Ling walked forward, a large amount of ice crystals gathered around her.
Those were countless ice blades with sharp ends.
As she stepped onto the front line of defense, the 200-meter-long corridor behind her suddenly turned into water mist.
She waved her hand, and thousands of ice blades pierced through the air wall and plunged into the black tide!
Her ice is sharper than a real knife; it can not only pierce the body of a deformed person but also leave extremely cold wounds.
Like threading a needle, the ice blades roamed freely within the black tide, eventually converging in the sky to form a giant frozen gear.
The gears had sharp edges, and she manipulated them to spin rapidly in the black tide, like an eraser, slicing off countless mutated bodies with each stroke.
In an instant, blood and flesh flew everywhere.
She looked up at the mutated humans who were still climbing into the wall, and with a wave of her arm, a nearly twenty-meter-high ice wall appeared on top of the original air wall, blocking them out.
Song Qiming then ran along the defensive line to a place further away from Tan Ling.
This defensive line originally surrounded Moon City on three sides, and it was quite long. Since Tan Ling was already in that area, he naturally had to go somewhere else.
Even when faced with such a crisis, the twenty-year-old red-haired college student maintained an incredibly naive mindset.
He rubbed his hands together and aimed his eyes forward.
Activation of superpowers—
Under the fireworks, the land is no longer land, and the mutant is no longer a mutant.
Instead, they were dazzling bombs!
The larger mutants exploded on the spot, and the huge impact even blasted the smaller mutants next to them away.
Song Qiming whistled terribly as he planted landmines one after another on the ground, then detonated them in rows.
He wasn't good at studying, nor was he good at social skills, but he was unbeatable at Minesweeper from childhood to adulthood.
The pressure on the front lines was relieved by the addition of high-level ability users, but mutants continued to pour in from the rear.
Yan Shuzhou scooped out a pink rabbit and stuffed it into the young soldier's arms.
"Take it to the tunnel."
He looked ahead at the vast expanse of black water.
Summoners are not going to the front lines.
