Trouble Brewed Again

Just as the command post was filled with jubilation, bad news arrived again.

"Commander, important intelligence has arrived."

Legion Commander: "Speak."

Staff Officer: "A message came from the Jiangnan Base City headquarters saying that a group of migrating flying monsters suddenly changed direction for some unknown reason and are flying towards us. They are expected to arrive in about an hour. We need to prepare for air defense in advance."

Wargod Wang Yuan's heart skipped a beat, a sense of foreboding washing over him. Could it be the same group he'd run into before he arrived?

Chief of Staff: "Approximately how many of these flying monsters are there?"

Staff Officer: "According to the density distribution, the data provided by headquarters is between 320,000 and 350,000, including at least three Lord-level Monster and at least one Intermediate Lord-level Monster."

Currently, aside from the Six Great Base Cities, any city or military unit that encounters their attack will face annihilation.

Wang Yuan asked, "Around when did they start changing direction? And where did they change direction?"

Staff officer. "About eight to ten hours ago, they changed course about sixty kilometers southeast of the Yun Shan Mountain Range."

At this moment, many people looked at the God of Wargod Wang Yuan.

Because he would pass through the Yun Shan Mountain Range on his way here, and he also encountered a horde of flying monsters along the way, he killed many of them to force his way through so as not to delay his mission.

Wang Yuan pondered and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this group of flying monsters is very likely coming for me. I was blocked by thousands of flying monsters near the Yun Shan Mountain Range. I killed hundreds of them before I could get through."

Now it seems that this should be part of this group of flying monsters.

The legion commander asked in bewilderment, "Only a few hundred monsters have died, is it really worth chasing them hundreds of kilometers away?"

Chief of Staff: "It's entirely possible. Many bird species are very vengeful, and nowadays they are even more intelligent. I think there's at least a 70% chance they're after us."

Regardless, let's halt our advance and prepare for air defense. Hopefully, it's not aimed at us. We've truly escaped one danger only to fall into another; it could turn into a massacre!

Wang Yuan looked remorseful. "I'm sorry, I should have taken a detour, cough cough."

Legion Commander: "No, you're injured. Your current task is to recover first. This isn't your fault; you were just trying to get our support as quickly as possible. Besides, those beasts might not actually be after us."

"Mom, I'm scared."

"Don't be afraid, Niuniu, Mommy's always here."

At this moment, a mother is holding her child and comforting her daughter inside the house.

Besides, quite a few people were hiding in this abandoned and dilapidated hut.

An old man sighed, "Oh dear, I wonder when this will ever end."

Another old man nodded in agreement. "Yes, ever since that R Virus two years ago, life has really been... sigh!"

A seven- or eight-year-old boy asked the elderly man beside him, "Grandpa, where did Dad go? Why isn't he with us?"

The woman next to the boy replied, "Daddy's outside, sweetie, we'll see Daddy soon."

Boy: "I heard that lots of flying monsters are coming later. Will we die? If we die, will we stop feeling pain?"

"Don't talk nonsense, no, we have soldiers protecting us, we, we'll be fine."

The woman said, crying.

Another eerie silence fell over the room.

The migration of millions of people stretched for tens of kilometers. Many people had no shelter around them, so in many cases only the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled, and pregnant women could enter the houses, while the others hid on the spot and waited for the flying monster horde to leave.

Just then, low, hushed shouts could be heard.

"The beasts are approaching! Everyone be silent and do not move!"

A short while later.

The beast horde entered, a dark mass, and the sky quickly turned as dark as night, with ferocious bird monsters obscuring the sky.

At this moment, everyone was nervously watching the sky.

From time to time, numerous scattered monsters flew down from high above, gliding low and making noise as they circled outside the house.

Many elderly and infirm people were so frightened that they held their breath, covered their mouths, and dared not make a sound.

However, some of the less composed soldiers made noise, forcing the Military to expose themselves and fire at the monster while running away from houses and people camouflaged on the ground.

Soon, the first warrior who was meant to lure the enemy had his heart ripped open by a monster's claw, and several monsters immediately flew over to devour his corpse.

"Damn it, you bastard, I'll fight you to the death!"

Watching helplessly as their comrades were devoured by the monster, someone whispered a shout, wanting to rush out and kill the monster, but was immediately held down by the soldiers next to them.

"Calm down, there are still so many of us here. If you want to die, don't drag us down with you."

"But those beasts are eating Xianming!"

"Bear with it. I know you're feeling bad, and so am we. Everyone's suffering, but until we're exposed, everyone is forbidden from taking any action. That's an order."

Yes~~

This kind of thing happens everywhere. Whenever the monster is about to spot a person, Military soldiers will deliberately expose their positions and die, only to be devoured by the monster.

Command post.

Legion Commander: "How's the decoy force doing? Have those bastards fallen for it? Every second, our soldiers are having to expose themselves to protect the civilians, only to be devoured by those beasts."

Chief of Staff: "The situation is much worse than we anticipated. These monsters are definitely coming for us. The suicide squad lured some of them, but only a small portion, numbering only tens of thousands. The main force is still circling above us. We need to prepare for the worst."

Wargod Wang Yuan: "Ahem, let me go. They're probably coming for me. Get a plane ready and let me distract them, ahem."

The chief of staff shook his head. "It's not a question of whether you go or not now. These beasts have probably already discovered our presence. After all, there are too many of us, over a million, and we're too human."

Even if they've come seeking revenge, they won't let go of this easy prey.

Wang Yuan said resolutely, "At least it will divert some attention and reduce the pressure on you."

The legion commander sighed, "Old Wang, I understand how you feel, but you can't get hurt. The future of Jiangnan Base City cannot be without your protection. There's nothing to feel guilty about now."

Living and being useful is more important than anything else. You should focus on recovering first.
