"Pfft, pfft" sounds rang out one after another.
The corpses of moth-blade beasts fell one after another in the fire escape.
Wang Jixuan stood on the corpse of a blade beast, using it to cushion the impact of hitting the pile of corpses below, lightly tapped his toes, and gracefully landed in front of the fire door on the 46th floor.
His spiritual sense expanded outward, sensing a small group of blade beasts ahead.
They were feeding.
Wang Jixuan charged forward with his spear, his left hand holding a pure crystal core, from which spiritual power was continuously drawn into his body.
Although this spiritual power had impurities, it could be used for emergencies.
Next, as long as no mid-level combat blade beasts appeared, he wouldn't have to use demonic techniques today.
After rushing past the background wall with '46' written on it and turning two corners, even Wang Daolang, who was mentally prepared, couldn't help but frown deeply.
The iron-sheet houses on both sides, which were originally full of people, had now become a purgatory.
The 'moth' blade beasts had turned this place into a food supply station. The ground was covered with a layer of blood, and human severed limbs and torsos were scattered everywhere, with twitching pieces of flesh visible everywhere.
These were the ordinary humans after the firepower defense line was lost.
Wang Daolang's nostrils trembled slightly, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Demons and humans follow different paths, and the great Dao has no return!
Beastly creatures!
His figure crashed into the street, and the long spear in his hand cleaved out waves of crescent moon marks, like a black storm, sweeping across the street and rushing straight to the defense line of the human vanguard!
The firepower of those gangsters was only a sporadic bit, and now they had all joined the human front.
Cheers suddenly rang out in the command channels at all levels.
"The Black Storm! The Black Storm is here!"
"Cover him! Damn it! Kill these blade beasts! Hahahaha!"
"The Black Storm is charging into the blade beast swarm! Firepower cover!"
Sarri Desert.
In the speeding spider-shaped command vehicle, Zhou Zhengde was stunned when he heard the news.
Wasn't Wang Zheng supposed to be on the seventh floor according to the feedback he had received earlier?
How did he get to the forty-sixth floor?
This? Wasn't it agreed that he would only help and not take risks?
Zhou Zhengde immediately began searching for surveillance footage of the forty-sixth floor of the fortress and quickly locked onto Wang Jixuan's figure. At least seven or eight soldiers were filming Wang Jixuan with their portable camera equipment.
Zhou Zhengde's scalp tingled as he watched.
Dense blade beasts kept pouring out from the central position on the forty-sixth floor, charging towards the connection passage from the forty-sixth floor to the forty-fifth floor.
The defense line of the vanguard force was centered around this passage.
—The fire escape was straight up and down. Although the basic blade beasts could climb, their march was relatively slow. Human firepower could be relatively concentrated. The blade beasts only sent out 'moth' blade beasts to destroy the connection passage between the middle and upper cities, cutting off the defense force's troop transport lifeline. The main force still had to climb layer by layer.
If the vanguard force was lost, then Commander Dongfang Zhenghong would not hesitate to blow up the passage between the middle and lower cities.
Following Wang Jixuan's figure, Zhou Zhengde quickly discovered that among the blade beast swarm composed of these low-level basic blade beasts, there were a large number of 'immature bodies' that were slightly smaller in size and whose shells were not yet fully hardened.
Although these 'immature bodies' were as lethal as 'mature bodies' to ordinary humans, their defense was not too strong.
Wang Jixuan charged into this place like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. A long spear and a bag of high explosives sent blade limbs flying everywhere, and the human front could even slowly push back.
But Wang Jixuan was only one person after all.
Even if he was brave, he could only protect one street.
And the entire defense line involved more than a dozen streets and various rooftops.
The blade beasts were like a sea wave, trying to extinguish the constantly blooming artillery fire ahead.
The entire forty-sixth floor was also doing its best to illuminate, so that the human soldiers could clearly see the figures of those blade beasts.
Zhou Zhengde faintly heard Lingtong's voice, which came from Wang Jixuan's helmet:
"Is this what you call not risking your life?" Lingtong was clearly a bit emotional.
Wang Jixuan simply defended: "Too many people are dying... Zhengde, is there a way to force the psionic users down?"
Zhou Zhengde immediately replied: "I'll contact them right away!"
He turned off the screen in front of him, glanced at Dongfang Zhenghong, who was communicating with the governor, directly bypassed the command level, and contacted Wei Linzheng, the commissioner in charge of the Biological Research Institute No. 13 stationed in Fortress 76, in his personal capacity.
A projection box appeared in front of Zhou Zhengde, inside which was Wei Linzheng's half-length portrait.
This thin old man frowned at Zhou Zhengde and said slowly: "Captain Zhou, now is a time of war. May I ask what is the meaning of your communication?"
Zhou Zhengde lowered his posture and said sincerely: "Can you please ask the psionic users to support the forty-sixth floor."
"Captain Zhou," Wei Linzheng said slowly, "Under the current situation, abandoning the lower city, guarding the upper city, and striving for the middle city is the most rational choice. We need to exchange space for time. Sacrificing the lower city is not too big a problem for Fortress 76. Ensuring the main operation of Fortress 76 is already a victory."
Zhou Zhengde's liver fire was rising.
He glared at the old man, trying to suppress his anger:
"Although the number of this blade beast swarm is large, their individual strength is far lower than that of normal blade beast swarms. These are the blade beasts that have emerged from the young queen insect's nest! There are still 200,000 people in the lower city. It is now possible to rescue them! And the main body of the fortress has been closed! The middle city levels have only suffered slight disturbances, and the security team is generally under control! Now, we need a sharp knife force. Only half an hour is needed for the semi-human mecha on the front line to return to the fortress! This time is crucial!"
Wei Linzheng said slowly: "Captain Zhou, perhaps we can make a deal."
"You want the Black Storm's data and his genetic information, right?" Zhou Zhengde's nostrils were constantly trembling.
Wei Linzheng added: "And Lingtong's weapon. This way, we will send all C-level and D-level psionic users to the 46th floor for limited support."
"Go to hell! I fuck your ancestors!"
Zhou Zhengde cursed loudly, his face flushed red:
"As long as I, Zhou Zhengde, am not dead for a day, I will definitely kick you parasites out of the human world!
"You remember! You fucking remember!"
Wei Linzheng shook his head helplessly and turned off the projection screen.
Zhou Zhengde sat in the chair panting, raising his hand to cover his forehead.
The command vehicle was a little quiet. Everyone looked at this side for a few seconds, and then lowered their heads to busy themselves with their work.
Wang Jixuan's voice rang out on the console in front of Zhou Zhengde: "I've already heard it. Don't be angry. They're just some parasites."
On the other side, Dongfang Zhenghong gently exhaled, seemingly making a decision.
"Request to speak with the Governor."
As soon as Dongfang Zhenghong's voice fell, a projection screen appeared above the holographic sand table. The Governor and several ministers were sitting in the conference room, looking at Dongfang Zhenghong at the same time.
Dongfang Zhenghong stood up and gave a military salute, his voice hoarse, his tone loud, and his eyes firm.
"Governor! Please allow me to formally request the backup battle plan from you!"
The Governor nodded: "Speak."
"In view of the current situation of the beast swarm and the unpredictable number of beast swarms below, I suggest! We should use the main structure of the forty-seventh and forty-eighth floors as a weapon! Use the pre-buried layered blasting extermination device to let the forty-seventh and forty-eighth floors fall to the forty-ninth floor using gravitational potential energy, in order to exterminate the beast swarm, block the gap, and buy time for our firepower deployment!"
The command vehicle was silent enough to hear a pin drop.
Everyone looked up at Dongfang Zhenghong.
The commander's eyes were incredibly firm.
The Governor frowned and pondered: "How many civilians are still on the forty-seventh, forty-eighth, and forty-ninth floors?"
"One hundred and thirty thousand to one hundred and fifty thousand!"
"You mean to sacrifice them?"
"Yes!" Dongfang Zhenghong said firmly, "I am willing to accept military court trial after this operation! But now, the lieutenant-general level blade beast is approaching the lower city! This will seriously threaten the middle city! The main body of the fortress is to transport supplies to the entire front line! According to the spirit requirements of the commander's handbook! Protecting the main function of the fortress is our priority!"
The Governor leaned back in his chair, and the ministers were discussing something in low voices. Zhou Meiying hesitated several times.
The Governor asked in a deep voice: "Is there no..."
"I object!" Zhou Zhengde stood up and glared at Dongfang Zhenghong, "There is still a chance to counterattack!"
"What are we going to counterattack with?"
Dongfang Zhenghong shouted quickly:
"People go down and firepower can't go down, it's just sending them to their deaths! We didn't reserve heavy firepower inside the fortress at all. The psionic users' refusal to attack has already left us helpless! Now we can only buy time! Once they break through the forty-fifth floor... the elevator shafts in the middle city are too thin and may be broken through! There is also a general-level blade beast behind, which is good at mental shock! If it reaches the range of the forty-fifth floor, the 38th floor and below may all die!
"If the internal implosion nuclear bomb would destroy more than half of the fortress's production equipment, I would have already chosen to use a tactical nuclear bomb now!"
"There is more than one secret passage from forty-six to forty-nine! There are very, very many shortcuts! It's easy to go down!"
Zhou Zhengde shouted quickly:
"We can arrange for an elite team to rush into the forty-ninth floor and use a nuclear bomb to attack that gap!"
Dongfang Zhenghong said angrily: "There are thousands of blade beasts near that gap, and more blade beasts are pouring out! Below is a nest!"
"But they are still alive!"
Zhou Zhengde shouted urgently:
"They only have one right in their lives: to live! They only have the right to live in the lower city! It's clear that we haven't reached the end of the road!"
Dongfang Zhenghong roared: "We must ensure that the loss of the main body of the fortress is minimized. This is responsible to the front line camp fortress humans! The general-level blade beast approaching the middle city will cause irreversible catastrophic consequences!"
"We have already determined that this general-level blade beast has not grown up yet!"
"You are betting on a greater death toll! There is no room for error in the war with the blade beasts!"
“Never give up hope on the battlefield! That's what you taught me, teacher! I'll say it again, we haven't reached the end of our rope yet!”
“Governor!”
Dongfang Zhenghong turned to look at the projection screen:
“I demand the immediate implementation of the 'Fall' operation!”
*Click*, *click-click*.
A bullet was chambered.
A pistol was pointed at Dongfang Zhenghong's shoulder.
“I will bear all the consequences of doing this,” Zhou Zhengde said, his breathing a little rapid, “but now, please, temporarily suspend the 'Fall' plan! Arrange for a strike team to try once! For the sake of these hundreds of thousands of humans!”
Dongfang Zhenghong slowly turned around, suddenly struck out, and snatched the pistol away. With just a few movements, the pistol was disassembled into parts that fell to the ground, and he threw a punch.
Zhou Zhengde was hit in the chin by the straight right, his body arched backward as he fell to the ground, immediately losing consciousness.
“If you weren't surnamed Zhou, I would have shot you dead right now! Brat! This trick of yours! It's what I used on your grandfather when I was young!”
Dongfang Zhenghong took a deep breath and looked at the governor and the ministers.
“Governor! The 'Fall' plan requires checking all the blast points! It needs at least ten minutes to prepare! The General-level Blade Beast will arrive at the breach in eleven minutes. Now, please approve…”
“*Cough!*”
A dry cough suddenly rang out inside the command vehicle.
In the C-section extension of the fortress, inside Ling Tong's supply station, Sister Wan was raising her hand to support her forehead.
She didn't know if she had made the right choice in having Wan Xiaoqi help Wang Zheng enter the command vehicle's amplification system.
But now, Sister Wan felt that she could trust this amazing young man once.
Wang Jixuan's voice appeared in the command vehicle, naturally heard by the governor and the ministers as well.
“This is Black Storm, Commander.”
Dongfang Zhenghong frowned and said, “I know, what do you want to say?”
“The breach you were just talking about, is it in the Blackfire Gang's territory on the forty-ninth floor, a slanted oval hole? About five or six meters in diameter?”
At this moment, Wang Jixuan was grabbing a metal frame on the ceiling of the fortress's forty-ninth floor with one hand.
Above his head was a ventilation duct, modified and opened by the Blackfire Gang, usually used for 'transporting goods,' and also the fastest route to the forty-ninth floor.
Daoist Wang stared at the horde of beasts in the distance, the Concealment Talisman on his body flickering with a faint light.
“Yes, yes it is,” Dongfang Zhenghong asked, “What do you mean?”
“I'm here.”
“You… why are you there?”
“It was a moment of impulse, but since I'm already here… I was the one who told Zhou Zhengde to stop you just now. His actions may have been a bit extreme, but please don't punish him under military law.”
Wang Jixuan said simply:
“I've already confirmed it. I can seal this breach, at least long enough for Deep Sea to arrive.
“You can organize a defensive line on the 46th floor. I'll try to hold back that General-level Blade Beast, and… the Blade Beasts that come out later are mostly immature, the situation isn't as hopeless as it seems.
“The residents of the lower city have already suffered enough, save them if you can.”
Dongfang Zhenghong: …
Everyone in the command vehicle: …
The governor and the ministers: …
Daoist Wang urged worriedly:
“Remember, don't let the psionics reach the lower city. Delete all my combat data and what I'm saying now. If I become exhausted and faint later, I hope my combat android will take care of me fully. I still have a bunch of alien civilization technology that I haven't had time to give you.”
*Buzz!*
Wang Jixuan cut off the call, turned off the headset, and the front of the helmet opened upwards.
‘Now, this poor Daoist is afraid that he will truly become a demon… So be it!’
Silver needles danced around him, then pierced into his major acupoints such as his brow, heart meridian, and dantian.
[Medical Secret Art: Heavenly Completion Treasure Record!]
[Demonic Art: Demon Luo Heavenly Evil Technique!]
The evil art Soul Control Curse absorbs the power of the soul, temporarily reaching the Nascent Soul state, and obtaining the power of the Nascent Soul!
The Daoist spell 'Ode to the Righteous God' keeps oneself awake, avoiding the killing intent being too heavy and directly becoming a demon during the fight!
Wang Jixuan let out a long roar, his figure holding a gun and falling, like a comet crashing straight into that breach, the gun shadow stirring up pieces of limbs!
The spiritual energy within a two-kilometer radius suddenly surged towards this place!
