Perhaps it was because it was too noisy on the dock, or because Cao Wei's voice was too quiet, but in short, Cheng Lin didn't hear it.
After standing there for a while, he turned back, found the people from Jiusi and asked about the situation, and then he understood what had happened before.
"A sixth-level monster has landed! There are more than one! That sixth-level monster is very strange and can spit out many smaller monsters. Although we have tried our best to stop it, we still lack control over the sky."
The person in question said, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "But it will be fine next, the First Division is here! There is also Shi Division Chief in charge, so there will definitely be no problem."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Cheng Lin was not so optimistic.
Is the First Division very strong? Indeed, the combat power of those armors is almost all above the fourth level, but is this enough? Not necessarily.
What if a super powerful monster appears? After all, an ant killing an elephant is an overly idealistic model.
"Every time a monster is blocked, a stronger one will come soon. Even if Shi Shengcun can block an eighth-grade monster, what about a higher one? Can he block it?"
Cheng Lin was filled with pessimism.
…
Cao Wei returned to her department. Before leaving, Cheng Lin wanted to tell her to hide back and not rush too far forward, but he hesitated and didn't say anything after all.
Sun Xiao found him and said a simple farewell, then turned around and rushed forward, saying that he wanted to apply to the department leaders to fight on the front line.
Cheng Lin respected his choice.
The sad atmosphere in the entire dock only lasted for a short time before it was swept away by a company represented by Shi Shengcun.
The war is imminent, and with monsters attacking every few hours, there is no time for people to grieve.
Supplies from all over the place are being transported here frantically, constantly maintaining the monks' combat effectiveness.
The students from the Ninth Division and the Tenth Division were also very busy. There were almost no people to be seen. There was even a loudspeaker erected on the pier.
That's right, it's the kind of gray speaker that's a bit "out of time" and broadcasts non-stop.
Whether it's the latest order from the command center, emergency matters, or encouragement and instructions from leaders in the imperial capital... the whole world seems to have become tense and busy.
Only Cheng Lin seemed to be an idler with nothing to do.
As a wounded soldier, he still enjoyed the leisure position assigned to him by Hu Rui, but Hu Rui was already dead.
To be honest, the friendship between the two is not deep, and they can barely be called friends.
Having fought together, they are considered comrades? Cheng Lin is not sure. Hu Rui's kindness to him is partly due to his cultivation... But is this important?
It doesn't matter, the man is already dead, Cheng Lin treats him as a friend.
There was no rush to go to the front line.
There were even some people who deliberately avoided Jiusi.
Cheng Lin found an opportunity and found Hu Rui's home, which was in Lian City. However, at this time, the entire Lian City began to retreat with the help of the army... further inland.
This is a very bad sign.
Cheng Lin had no choice but to call and read the contents of the will to the other party.
On the phone, Hu Rui's wife cried heartbrokenly. She heard that they had just gotten married and a new building had been allocated to her by the special department. Not long after they moved in, she disappeared.
The dead were all placed in the barracks, and the conditions were difficult. Cheng Lin failed in the field test, and after all, Huabei was not allowed to be stuffed into the pile of dead people.
Holding her body in his arms, he secretly returned to the room where he had been unconscious and recuperating, placed it on his bed, got some healing potion, and barely patched up the wound on his chest... and from Huabei again
He took out her makeup box from her backpack, awkwardly applied powder and drew her eyebrows.
"Huh," Cheng Lin took a deep breath and looked at the female classmate who seemed to be asleep on the bed, and said with some shame: "My painting may be a bit ugly...but don't mind, I tried my best."
After saying that, he took two steps back and took out a cigarette that had been wet by Qiu Yu from his pocket, which Hu Rui had given to him before.
Pop out a flame with your hand and ignite it forcefully, causing curls of green smoke to rise.
Cheng Lin held the cigarette with both hands, hesitated for a moment, looked at Huabei, smiled and said to himself: "I won't worship you anymore, I know you are annoyed by the smell of cigarettes."
After saying that, he turned around and bowed seriously to the pier outside the window. It was a bit silly, but he still did it. Although all this was fake, they were still martyrs, and it was not a loss to bow to them.
After a cigarette was completely burned to ashes, Cheng Lin said "goodbye" to Hua Bei, then put on his uniform with small lapels and walked downstairs.
As soon as he went out, he saw spiritual energy boiling on the seaside, and there was a strong spiritual reaction on the electric tower on the nearby mountain.
That's a psychic weapon.
It's similar to the gun Huang Yin is holding on the elevated stand.
It's incredibly powerful, but also incredibly expensive.
Cheng Lin had inquired before and learned that the bullet fired by Huang Yin was worth more than one billion.
And it cannot be mass-produced and can only be made in the laboratory. The entire Xia country's reserves do not exceed a hundred, which is less than the reserve of nuclear bombs.
At this time, two passers-by also stopped, stared at this scene, and talked:
"It's starting again. The weapons brought by Yisi are powerful. After all, it's the core department that has the money."
"Yes, and that armor. I heard that the cost of each set is upwards of eight figures."
"There is a division in front, it should be able to stop the monsters, right?"
"I hope so."
Cheng Lin was curious, so he walked over and asked, "What are you fighting for? I didn't see any monsters?"
One person explained: "Because they were killed before they even came out of the water. Have you seen these weapons set up on the mountain? They were all brought by the First Division. The radar has failed, but we still have people. Chief Shi
In that building, the central command headquarters, he can cover the sea area with supernatural powers, and no disturbance can escape his eyes."
The other person also echoed: "Shi Shou is our radar, and these weapons are carrying out precise strikes according to the coordinates he reported."
Is that so?
Cheng Lin was startled, then smiled and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
After bidding farewell to the two of them, Cheng Lin put on his clothes and walked forward, found a high place, and then stared at the ocean covered in silver lightning in front of him.
Bundles of light fall from various mountaintops. Once they touch the sea water, they will spread out in large swaths of light, like mercury.
This scene is beautiful and magnificent.
After a while, the attack stopped, and floating corpses rose up from the sea, piling up the coast, which was a spectacular scene.
"The attack is completed, all monsters in this round have been eliminated!"
On the radio, an announcer's exciting voice came.
Immediately, tens of thousands of people watching the battle on the pier collectively cheered, as if victory was in sight.
Cheng Lin did not smile. The light and shadow in front of him quickly blurred and changed:
[You are witnessing this short-lived victory with neither joy nor sadness, just as a tragic story always begins with a fall from the peak of joy. After a short rest, a new round of attacks begins again around the world]
ps: Let’s go eat first, there will be more in the evening.
