The entire azure world breathed slowly under the sunlight, as if a long hibernation had finally ended.
Nothing seemed to be wrong until Ye Lang's eyes trembled slightly.
"Boss! Quick...quick, check the central control screen! We've found monsters...a dense swarm of...monsters!"
Zhao Lang rushed towards Ye Lang, his face filled with terror, his voice trembling so much it was almost incoherent.
"Something is approaching from the deep sea! But we can't see it at all. There are many of them, and radar shows that they are rising from the seabed at an extremely fast speed!"
Ye Lang ignored Zhao Lang's urgency, simply raising his hand to signal him and the others behind him to be quiet.
His gaze never left the sea, and his voice was deep and clear:
"They're here, they've finally arrived."
Ye Lang slowly stood up, lightly jumped down, and came to Zhao Lang and the others.
"Activate the defensive energy shield and get everyone into position."
His voice was calm yet carried an undeniable authority, like a whisper before a storm.
An energy shield instantly unfolded, enveloping the fortress like a giant, transparent cocoon.
The group arrived at the fortress control room. At this time, there were no suspicious figures in the surveillance video. Only the water shimmered in the sunlight, and the scene was unusually quiet.
But the red dots on the radar continued to approach, their numbers almost filling the entire area.
Suddenly, ripples spread across the surface of the energy shield beneath the water, as if countless monsters had crashed into the shield without leaving a mark, leaving only the ripples slowly spreading.
Everyone who witnessed the invisible impact felt a chill run down their spines.
Although nothing could be seen, the red dots on the radar and the ripples of the energy shield increased, becoming as dense as a torrential rain hitting a lake, with invisible impacts coming one after another.
Fortunately, the energy shield remained rock solid, and the energy reading remained within the safe threshold.
To cope with this crisis, Ye Lang has stockpiled nearly 200,000 passion points these days. The system generator and the fortress energy core are both at full capacity, enough to support the shield to operate continuously for a long time.
"Little...Little Lang, what are these things?"
Bi Xiao's voice trembled slightly, her face was pale, and her fingertips gripped Ye Lang's sleeve tightly.
The other women also gathered around, their eyes filled with fear and unease.
It's no wonder they're timid; after all, women are naturally afraid of the unknown.
Not only them, but even the members of the War God Squad held their breath, their palms sweating as they gripped their weapons.
The red dots on the radar had become a dense, deep red tide, and the ripples on the shield were hitting each other more and more frequently, as if countless ghosts were surging in from the deep sea.
Listen closely, and you can hear a low-frequency shriek mixed in with the sound of the impact, like the howl of a vengeful ghost, frantically trying to tear them apart and devour them.
Ye Lang gently patted Bi Xiao's hand, his gaze fixed on the distorted waters outside the shield.
"Them..."
With the power of his wrathful gaze and the ability to ward off evil, Ye Lang watched as countless twisted shapes, neither human nor fish, were shrouded in black energy, like vengeful spirits, with ghostly eyes and ferocious faces, frantically ramming against the shield.
"Looking at their ghostly appearance, let's call them Scaled Ghosts."
