Chapter 448 The Secret of the Man in Black(1/3)
Author: Qi Zi Wu Cai
36 hours after the black hole appeared.
In the picture of the black hole above City V, the world on the opposite side finally turned from long day to night.
Jiuyou and Tianzi's previous judgment on the number of monsters affected by day and night was accurate.
It's okay when it's dark on both sides. As long as the lights in the city are turned out as much as possible, the impact on the other world will be minimal.
The most fearful thing is that it is dark and the earth is daytime. During this period, from the perspective of the giant world opposite, the black hole on the ground is as conspicuous as a searchlight in the dark night and can be seen from a long distance away.
This is the case in City V at this time.
Even if manpower has been arranged to continuously create dark clouds below the black hole, it cannot completely block the natural strong light during the day.
So starting from this morning, when the opposite world entered night, the frequency of monsters falling from the black hole in V City began to increase at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Silkworms, moths, fish, insects, flies and animals, all kinds of light-loving creatures are constantly falling from the black hole.
After these monsters land, a very small number of them will fight on the spot out of territorial awareness, saving humans the effort, but more creatures will still instinctively start to flee to the surroundings because they suddenly fall into a strange environment.
Directly below the black hole, two expert teams with more than a thousand members have been arranged. The lowest level personnel are all above level 18. It can be said that all the experts that can be recruited from nearby provinces and cities have been gathered here.
The goals of these two teams are very simple. They are responsible for sniping and sniping those monsters that occasionally appear with three stars or above. As for the creatures below two stars, they will just let them go. There is no other way. There is really a shortage of experts.
The two-star creatures that move out to the surroundings will be handled by the second line of defense behind them.
The second line of defense is a joint encirclement network formed by the three surrounding cities bordering V City. It is garrisoned by lower-level but larger numbers of players and troops.
K City is one of the three surrounding cities of V City.
At this moment, the southern suburbs of K City are enveloped by the roar of magic and the roar of monsters.
A large number of humans gathered behind the defense line. Arrows and acid kept passing by, splattering bright red sparks from time to time. All kinds of magic flew across the sky, erupting into dazzling flames.
Huge magical energy gathered nearby and formed a colorful tornado, covering the giant beast in front, blocking the monster's sight.
At the same moment, a large number of arcane magic missiles hit the sky together, flying along a spiral trajectory and blooming beautiful magic flames around the monster.
The battles all over the world the day before had fully proved that in the face of these giant creatures, the effects of physical firearms cannot match magic. Because there is no magic in the giant world, the magic resistance of these monsters is zero, but they are almost 100% abnormal.
Status Resistance'.
In other words, those restrictive and control magics are almost ineffective against giant beasts, but the damage of magic can be fully exerted on them.
Especially after many people climbed the tower and obtained the power of God, to deal with those low-level creatures with weak divine defenses, at least magic can trigger the power of God and break through their hard skin. Each hit is guaranteed to cause some damage, but firearms
These things are foreign objects and cannot trigger the power of God. For this factor alone, magic is much more practical than physical firepower (for details on the triggering rules of the power of God, see Chapter 330).
The only thing in human technology that can be effective against these alien beasts is probably several heavy fire weapons including mushroom bombs. However, there is still a problem of level suppression. These physical weapons are all at level 25 when faced with them.
The above monsters all have at least four levels of suppression, which directly reduces their damage to an unbearable level.
It is said that when the monsters in America were the most ferocious and dense yesterday, the military could not withstand the pressure and gathered the monsters in an open area. They used nuclear weapons once, hoping to clear out these monsters at once, but the result was not satisfactory.
.
The one- and two-star monsters suffered heavy casualties in the explosion, but most of the three-star and above monsters did not even lose half of their lives in the explosion and were still alive and well. On the contrary, their own country was seriously damaged and they will have to bear the consequences for a long time in the future.
The risk of nuclear radiation is no less harmful than that of monsters. It can be said that one can injure one thousand enemies but oneself suffer ten thousand losses.
"Where are the dispatched manpower? Why haven't they arrived yet?" Zhang Yang looked at the approaching battle line and couldn't help but look to Liu Chen beside him and asked.
As the director of K City's Irregularity Branch, he was appointed as the commander-in-chief in charge of K City's peripheral defense line.
Looking at the battlefield ahead that was almost covered in magic smoke, Zhang Yang looked solemn.
You must know that to deal with such giant creatures, melee personnel are almost useless. Not to mention whether the melee method can cause damage, if you do not keep a distance, these giant creatures can crush a large area just by turning over.
Currently, 12,000 mage shooters with long-range strike capabilities have been deployed intermittently on this defense line in the southern suburbs.
However, compared to the number of monsters, this manpower is really not enough, especially when it is night in the opposite world, the number of monsters increases sharply, and the defensive pressure doubles instantly, causing the entire front to become precarious.
"Still in the process of scheduling..." Liu Chen smiled bitterly.
In fact, one day ago, the country issued a semi-mandatory recruitment order to the people, summoning all players with long-range attack capabilities, and trumpeted the benefits of participating in the war, such as gaining real experience by killing monsters and having the opportunity to obtain exotic beast materials.
Divine crystals, etc.
But even so, there are still very few responders. First, because this is not the star spirit world, there is no chance of resurrection, and not many people are willing to risk their lives to fight against the alien beasts for the drizzle of rewards;
The second reason is that because of the widespread existence of space backpacks, most people do not have enough sense of crisis. They think that even if a monster comes, they can just hide in the backpack to keep their home safe. If there is a way out,
Next, how many people are willing to take the initiative to come to the front line to fight?
It is this trend of thought that has led to the shortage of manpower everywhere now.
"Where is Mu You? Is there no news yet?" Zhang Yang asked again.
"No, it's been a day and a half and I haven't been able to contact anyone..." Liu Chen sighed.
"What happened?" Zhang Yang couldn't help but frown.
He knew that there were indeed many people in the city who were clearly capable of fighting, but because of fear of hardship and death, they took the initiative to hide and wait for the disaster to pass.
He couldn't criticize such people harshly, it was just human nature, but he believed that Mu You would never be in this situation, which only meant that Mu You was probably entangled in something and couldn't get out of it.
Even more seriously, it may have been...
"I hope I'm overthinking it..." Zhang Yang sighed, shook his head, and shook off these thoughts.
"Old Zhang!"
While thinking, Liu Chen beside him suddenly exclaimed.
Zhang Yang hurriedly turned his head and looked.
At this moment, in the smoke and dust in front of them, three huge figures were seen breaking through the smoke and dust, aiming directly at their defense line.
"Exotic beast No. A150, iris bird, two stars!"
"Exotic beast No. A151, six-eyed lizard, two stars!"
"Beast No. A152, silt accumulator, two stars!"
Liu Chen quickly read the information displayed on the screen of the instrument in his hand.
After a day and a half of preparation, a complete real-time monitoring system has been established at the nine black hole entrances. The moment any monster falls, the image will be captured by the system immediately, a number will be established, and the corresponding image will be found in the database.
The biological text information, including the creature's attributes, weaknesses, recommended response methods, etc., can be fed back to frontline combatants as quickly as possible.
It is precisely thanks to this complete detection system that the pressure on everyone's defense is greatly reduced.
At this moment, the information of the three new creatures that appeared in the black hole of V City was transmitted to the receiver in Liu Chen's hand in less than ten seconds.
However, the information contained therein still caught everyone by surprise.
"Nah, two-star ones, three at once? Why are they all coming at us?" Zhang Yang's eyes were twitching wildly.
Even if two stars came before, they came one by one, so even if there were fewer people, they could still hold on.
As a result, three of them came running at once, and they seemed to form a team and went straight towards them. How should they deal with this?
"Maybe it's because there are so many people..." Liu Chen was also sweating on his forehead.
Because K City is adjacent to the black hole, it is also one of the high-risk areas. After the global mutation, K City residents began to flee in large numbers. However, due to the rush of time, only about half of them have been evacuated. There are still a large number of ordinary people in the city, and
For these man-eating monsters, the denser the flow of people, the more abundant the food.
"Quick, retreat the defensive line!" Seeing the alien beast approaching quickly, Zhang Yang shouted hurriedly.
"Really want to withdraw?" Liu Chen hesitated. If he retreated, the defense line would expand, and more and more manpower would be needed.
"There's no way, we absolutely can't handle this situation. If we don't retreat now, we will lose our manpower in vain. Let's retreat first and wait for support..." Zhang Yang made a quick decision and took out his walkie-talkie to give an order.
But at this moment, no one noticed that on the roof of an abandoned building ahead, two figures, one large and one small, landed one after another.
The older one is a female forest elf, and the smaller one is a little girl wearing a cat-face mask.
After the two landed, the little girl immediately took out a square box, held it in her arms, and opened the lid: "Mengmeng, beat it!"
"roar!"
A huge black shadow instantly emerged from the box and landed on the ground surrounded by black energy. Then it roared and rushed towards the three monsters. It swung out a claw and scratched the soft mud closest to it.
Blame it on yourself.
With one claw, the ooze monster's body suddenly swayed from side to side like jelly, shaking non-stop.
The ooze monster was dizzy from the slap. When he came back to his senses, he was immediately furious. He opened his whole body like a bat's wings and rushed towards the shadow ghost, as if he wanted to wrap it up, but unfortunately he was blocked by the shadow ghost.
The ghost jumped back smartly and swung its claws again and again. The slime monster's body surface was soon torn and damaged. Although the slime monster was able to reorganize quickly, the smelly mud and poisonous gas in its body continued to surge.
out.
"Shadow, shadow ghost!"
Zhang Yang's pupils shrank when he saw the newly appeared monster, and his heart almost stopped.
Because K City had been attacked by a shadow ghost once, he, the person in charge of K City, was particularly sensitive to shadow ghosts.
In particular, the shadow ghost didn't come out early or late, but it happened to appear at this extremely critical moment, which immediately made Zhang Yang feel like his eyes were dark.
"But it seems that they are here to help us?" Liu Chen, who was standing next to him, had no psychological shadow on Shadow Ghost and immediately clarified the situation.
To be continued...
