The Fallen Fortress / Sit on It and Crush It
"The Hida Mountains... the remaining Jenova Cells and two old friends... are all there..."
Lufus spoke, he raised an eyebrow and looked at the blue-haired middle-aged man in the corner, his voice low.
"Raiden Ryoma, the next message relay is entrusted to you..."
The ME Company, who had been hired by Schrodinger Company after being laid off, closed his book, stood up, sighed slightly, and watched the young man, who was not much older than his daughter, disappear into the spatial matrix.
At this moment, still worried about the dangers of the Gastrea virus and Jenova Cells, he heard Lufus's final murmur and became somewhat dazed.
The Hida Mountains are a prison where Shinra Special Forces deserters were held after the Jenova Advent incident.
Angel and Genesis, who were once the best hosts... Dr. Serizawa vaguely knew all of this.
However, he ultimately relinquished command for...
... injected with Jenova Cells, he personally led a team to destroy the laser drill in the central district...
Dr. Serizawa shook his head, swallowing back the accusations and questions that welled up in his throat. He casually took off his glasses and tossed them onto the control panel.
Humanity has reached a point where there is nowhere left to retreat or escape...
We are the last line of defense. Even if we are crushed into flesh and blood and burdened with sin, we must be forged into the strongest shield!
Well, they've all gone mad. This old man should learn from the young people!
Dr. Serizawa's fingers flew across the keyboard as he retrieved the audio signal from the Monarch Organization's database using the Oka Acoustic Device.
The once gentle and refined scholar now had a look of madness on his face, which was covered in dust and had a trickle of blood on his forehead.
In reality, although billions of people are housed in the hollow ecosystem of Earth, there is a secret held by a Monarch Organization that has never been made public.
That is the Earth's core ecosystem, where an unknown number of Ancient Titans are thriving!
Unfortunately, most of them, like the cave lizards on Skull Island, harbored hostility towards humans, which is why they were driven to the Earth's core by other Ancient Titans.
However, even Kyushu and Shikoku Island have become hellish places ravaged by alien creatures; did they have a choice?
Today, light needs the power of darkness!
At this moment, humanity is willing to stand with natural disasters!
Chapter 941 The Fallen Fortress (Third Update, Seeking Votes)
In Siberia, in the city of Anti-Entropy, the overburdened energy barrier has shattered.
"Boom!"
The Chitauri Star Whale spewed out a blue hydrogen energy Light Orb, blasting a gap of over ten meters in the nanometal wall.
The Vanguard and even higher-level Fire Giant, densely packed on the icy plains, roared as they charged toward the breach, the tremors from their frenzied charge pounding against everyone's hearts.
The flagship Moonlight Throne was transferred to the moon, and her Valkyrie squad was also taken away...
The Asgardian God Clan's gathering point in the neighboring settlement has been completely severed from the real world by the Power of Space and exiled to the Imaginary Space.
Clearly, the high-level war there, even if its aftershocks leak out, would be enough to raze Siberia several times over, and no one else could interfere.
As for Heavenly Base King Hexi, who is in charge of Anti-Entropy, he is also being held back by Frost Giant King Mimer, and it is estimated that he will be unable to extricate himself for the time being.
After all, according to the information, that Old Man Mimer was in his prime, meticulous in his thinking, unlike Surtur, who had lost nearly half of his essence and acted rashly.
Anti-Entropy, being a tech expert, is powerless in the face of its elite troops and high-end weaponry being completely depleted.
Therefore, after considering all aspects, Cocolia sadly realized that she could not rely on anyone in the current situation.
In the snowstorm, on the Skynet warship inside the city walls, Cocolia pulled open her loose military coat, revealing a mercury-like nano-metal exoskeleton covering the exquisite curves of this Alliance Leader of Anti-Entropy.
"Knights of the Holy Sepulchre, Anti-Entropy 1st, 7th, and 24th Tactical Squads... Charge with me!"
"Hold the breach closed, buy time for the nanometal proliferation to recover and the protective shield to restart!"
As Cocolia roared the order into the channel, she leaped down and stood in front of the gap in the metal wall.
The familiar feeling of fighting the Honkai in the B-17 military fortress surged into her heart, and the woman's blood boiled. These monsters and gods walking on the wasteland could not terrify her.
Feeling slighted, the giants, their faces contorted with rage, roared as several unleashed, fleshy war beasts charged toward the breach.
On the wasteland, the mixed forces, as dense as an ant swarm, rolled in.
The dilapidated mechs at the forefront, like small islands overturned by raging wolves, were destined to be submerged sooner or later, offering no effective buffer whatsoever.
Bang!
The Titan Mecha that poured out of the gap had barely erected a barrier when their entire bodies, along with the light screen, were smashed to pieces by the flesh-and-blood beasts and Frost Giants.
At this moment, the missionaries, holding small Bibles and sprinkling holy water on the Knights of the Holy Sepulchre with gold and silver crosses to bestow blessings, sang hymns that were somewhat off-key, their voices trembling and shrill.
"To our Lord be glory, majesty, power, and authority!"
"From the past, to the present, and forevermore!"
Amen!
This technique, which utilizes natural energy and combines it with the spell formed by the Dark Plane Network of the Merlot Heavenly Court, temporarily enhances the physical functions of the Knights of the Holy Sepulchre wielding the tower shield by several times.
As the tank beast charged in, nearly two-thirds of the runes on its armor and tower shields went out.
The carefully selected group of extraordinary individuals immediately tasted a metallic sweetness in their mouths and their faces turned deathly pale.
"Suppressive fire! Snipers! Snipers! Take this beast down!"
Cocolia, who had been holding her breath, felt a slight sense of relief when she saw the enemy's offensive momentum stalled.
Immediately, the Alliance Leader of Anti-Entropy, who had stabilized the formation, risked exposing the internal firepower deployment and ordered the rear to launch bombing and sniping attacks on this mixed force.
However, the addition of several Dark Elf Warships and two giant races made it difficult for the internal counterattacks of Anti-Entropy to inflict effective damage.
Two autonomous artillery positions and dozens of beyond-visual-range snipers were instead destroyed by concentrated fire.
Just as the Knights of the Holy Sepulchre, having caught their breath, stepped forward from behind the Terminator robot forces to continue resisting the enemy's onslaught.
Unexpectedly, dozens of pitch-black spheres were flung toward the position of the Knights of the Holy Sepulchre. As they rolled to their feet, they glowed eerily.
Before the Knights of the Holy Sepulchre could react, distorted spatial force fields formed, and the unsuspecting superhumans were compressed and drawn into them.
The explosions of bloody mist, the muffled cracking of bones, and the agonizing screams of dying humans turned the front lines into a living hell.
It's Dark Elves's Black Hole Grenade! Cocolia's eyes twitched, and her scalp tingled.
"Charge forward and hold them off!"
To prevent their dense formation from being wiped out by the Dark Elves' high-tech weapons, the Alliance Leader of Anti-Entropy had no choice but to have the forward troops blocking the gaps mingle with the enemy forces, rendering their ranged fire support useless.
However, the differences in physical abilities, coupled with the near-total loss of superhumans, led to a surge in casualties among the frontline troops.
In just a few minutes, the three squads lost more than half their men. Those exoskeleton soldiers who risked their lives to charge forward were either frozen into ice sculptures and then crushed, or turned into charred corpses.
"Boom!"
A punch enveloped in magma slammed down, Cocolia's Tactical Exoskeleton, overloaded, instantly disintegrated.
A pair of white wings emerged from its back, and with a powerful flap, it finally withdrew from the range of the Fire Giant's attack.
Fortunately, he had received a gift from Heavenly Base King Hexi and was transformed into an angel-like life form, possessing physical attributes beyond those of ordinary people.
But before Cocolia catch her breath, the surging black torrent tore apart and shredded the formation of the 1st squad.
The remaining few dozen people are vulnerable; if they are not careful, the Vanguard and the two giant races will throw them out of the camp and brutally devour them.
However, at the same time, when the host's vital signs disappeared, the Tactical Exoskeleton containing the recorded information suddenly exploded, sending nearby monsters flying.
In the black tide, the light energy barrier that they had been supporting was compressed to its limit, and the few remaining soldiers were about to be swallowed up by the waves stirred up by the enemy.
Captain, you're leaving first...
Akresh raised his left hand in a distant salute, his right sleeve empty, with blood continuously dripping down.
The soldiers behind them, who were struggling to hold on, also raised their hands in unison, a hint of madness appearing in their eyes.
"Bang!"
Just as the group was preparing to perish together with the surrounding monsters, a figure with wings on its back and wielding a flaming greatsword turned back and leaped into the waves, sweeping away a Vanguard.
"I'm not dead yet, and you're already in such a hurry to be reincarnated?!"
With a gloomy expression, Cocolia gritted her teeth and snorted coldly, brandishing her Sword of Flames to cover Akrese and the others as they fought and retreated.
Although Hexi was held back, she left behind some weapons authorized by the Merlot Heavenly Court. While they couldn't change the overall situation, they were enough to relieve the immediate crisis.
However, as the pillar of fire exploded, several Frost Giants mixed in with it came running at the sound and surrounded the first squad.
"Captain, you shouldn't have come back..."
Aklexis, who had been injected with the Cell Repair Fluid, looked ashamed.
"Shut up! I brought you out of this land, and it's my responsibility to bring you back alive!"
Cocolia swung a blade of light, severing the right hand of a Frost Giants. Her expressionless silence brought tears to the eyes of Akresh and the others.
These were all loyal soldiers who had participated in the battle to capture the B-17 military fortress. Each of them was willing to shed their last drop of blood for the vision of the nation's future that the captain had painted for him.
However, I never expected that my boss, who was known for his rationality and ruthlessness, would one day act on emotion.
"You're alive! Bronya and the others are still waiting for you to come home..."
As more and more monsters gathered around, Cocolia began to show signs of fatigue and could only encourage her comrades with words, telling them not to give up easily.
But in the instant he turned around, two Frost Giants, one on his left and one on his right, grinned and lunged at the novice angel, a chilling current sweeping through the air.
This caused Cocolia's wings to be covered with a thick layer of frost, and her perception and control to plummet.
At that moment, two enormous shadows crashed down from the sky, and the first squad, caught in the black tide, was on the verge of death.
P. S.: I currently owe 9 chapters. Please vote and sign in. I'll be more diligent lately.
Chapter 942, Section 985: Sit it to death
"Boom! Boom!"
At the critical moment, two eerie blue plasma bullets slammed into the chests of the two leaping Frost Giants.
The streaking arcs of light pierced directly through the frost protective layer on their bodies, turning them into charcoal.
"Roar!"
The tank beasts following behind roared, broke free of their chains, and pounced on the first squad.
"Star of Eden - 10,000-ton Pressure!"
At that moment, as the air slightly distorted, a tall figure dressed in casual clothes with a beige scarf around his neck floated in mid-air, his right palm pressed down, his mind frozen.
Instantly, the area where the gravity structure had been altered collapsed on a large scale. Hundreds of Vanguard lay prone on the ground, gradually being pressed into the soil, their bones cracking and popping until they shattered into a pile of mangled flesh.
The tanky war beast paused for a moment, then plummeted straight down, its limbs pressed to the ground by a strange force.
But the monster actually managed to climb out of the cone-shaped crater it had created, and after several struggles, it managed to tear apart the small black vortexes that were wrapped around its limbs.
Clearly, this tanky beast was able to break through the distorted gravity field with its terrifying physical strength, and its two pairs of outstretched claws swept towards the rescuers in mid-air.
"Damn it! Get away from little Welt, and... get down!"
The crisp, clear voice echoed all around, amplified by the loudspeaker. With the deep roar of the engine, the hundred-meter-tall Demon God Mecha Alahato, tore through its Optical Camouflage.
Then, to everyone's astonishment, the magnificent Demon God Mecha actually sat crookedly on the neck of the tank-like beast.
The sickening sound of bones cracking and the echoing sound of something like a watermelon being opened reverberated all around, causing the tank-like war beast's twitching limbs to gradually go limp.
"Um, Alahato II has just been tested, so it's normal for it to have some minor issues... right?"
In the cockpit, his head bumped into the red-haired Tesla on the control screen, and he rubbed his swollen forehead.
Seeing the embarrassing situation of sitting on a tanky beast to death, the girl hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and casually threw a suspicious glass bottle under her seat, her voice strained and dry.
"Boom!"
At this moment, Welt, who had altered the distribution of gravity around him, focused his gaze, jumped onto the shoulder of the Giant Mecha, and a red-black gravity beam shot out from the purplish-black Ninth Divine Key behind him.
The Fire Giant charged forward from behind was pierced through the chest and crushed into a ball of molten lava that gradually went out.
"Please don't drink and drive in the future..."
