Chapter 974: “friends” from the Abyss (Long Chapter, Please Vote with Monthly Tickets)
Flames lit up the night sky like fireworks. Streaks of light cut across the heavens, flashing lasers like long swords splitting the firmament, tearing apart both the flying beasts in the sky and the roaring Dragon Rider Fighters.
Shells spitting fire streaked through the low sky like raindrops, densely packed and trailing long tails as they passed over the swaying forest. Then they were struck by small anti-aircraft shells, blossoming into dense flames in the sky like fireworks exploding a second time.
The scorching wind swept through the forest, bringing with it a fierce rustling sound.
Howling beasts fled swiftly between towering trees, avoiding the roaring flames in the sky and the steel fragments that burst and rained down like raindrops, shattering rocks.
The tremendous noise spread through the darkness, startling every living thing within hundreds of kilometers.
And beyond those towering walls, the people living in the city also raised their heads as one, looking toward the source of the thunderous noise.
"White Jasmine Palace reminds all citizens of Ilan City that Ilan City is under attack by the Ives Space System Mercenary Group. Please remain indoors or take shelter in the nearest building. Do not travel through the streets."
"Once again, Ilan City is under attack by the Ives Space System Mercenary Group. Please remain indoors or take shelter in the nearest building. Do not travel through the streets."
"Special reminder to citizens near the south gate: if there is an air raid facility nearby, please immediately take shelter inside it."
"Once again..."
"It's begun?"
Amid the piercing alarms and booming explosions, the young officer leaning against a half-collapsed low wall turned around and looked toward the high wall behind him.
His body tensed unnaturally.
