Chapter 422 Man-made
The tsunami was surging and thunder was roaring. Although it was clearly 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the entire Haiyan Island seemed to be plunged into the polar night.
The storm overhead was still roaring. Lin Xian and KIKI hid behind the reef, looking at the seabed that had receded before the tsunami and the huge creature that disappeared in the whirlpool in the distance. The next moment, a tsunami hundreds of meters high rushed towards them.
"pay close attention!"
The anti-impact devices of Lin Xian and KIKI's power armor were activated, and the restraint mechanism was buckled tightly on the reef. Then, the next moment, it was as if the sea was pouring back, and the entire beach and the mountains behind were completely submerged.
Wow! Gurgle~
The violent waves completely swallowed them. At this time, Lin Xian did not rush into the sky directly, but dodged the oncoming tsunami in the water, and then flew out from underwater. The two of them returned to the shore following the turbulent waves.
"The monster is gone!"
"Is it in the sea or in the sky?"
Lin Xian's expression was tense at this moment. He had no idea where the giant ocean god was. The sky was covered with thunderclouds, as if blocking out all the light. The sea was turbulent. With such a scene, they felt no sense of security even though they were on the island.
"It should be... in the sea..." KIKI flew behind Lin Xian, looked back at the huge whirlpool in the deep sea in the distance, and said: "Fortunately, we were not marked."
"I can't imagine how to deal with this monster. The Emperor Mecha is like an ant in front of it." Lin Xian gritted his teeth and said, "But I just tried it and it can be cut. If we can solve the problem of the biological force field, maybe we can try using a high-yield nuclear weapon."
"You talk like we have nuclear weapons." Kiki said with a look of fear, "How strange, it came directly towards us, as if it had a target and could see us."
Lin Xian's expression darkened slightly when he heard this. He had a bad idea and said
"Maybe it's coming for us..."
"Then why did you run away again?"
"Who knows?"
They were not yet completely out of danger. Looking at the tsunami rushing below with a look of urgency, Lin Xian said, "First find Shizhi, then reunite with Teacher Chen."
"Um."
The two flew towards the island along the mountain ridge, flying in the escape direction that had been preset for Shiori to look for someone.
At this time, the storm began to weaken significantly. Suddenly, the signal of Shizhi Power Armor appeared in Lin Xian's communication band. He immediately shouted.
"Shiori, where are you?"
“Sizzle…sizzle…ah, Lin…”
The signal was intermittent. Lin Xian watched the positioning mark on the screen appear and disappear from time to time, and it was moving towards the urban area. He immediately realized that something was wrong.
"She's in danger, let's hurry!"
The thrusters accelerated, and Lin Xian and KIKI were like two low-flying fireballs, passing over the mudslides caused by the tsunami, and flew all the way from the jungle into the city. In an instant, strange roars sounded in the dark streets below.
Lin Xian ignored her and stared at the coordinate point on the screen, accelerating continuously. Soon, the two approached the moving Shizhi. At this moment, a shocking explosion sounded in front of them. Lin Xian looked up and saw Shizhi traveling at high speed between several abandoned high-rise buildings. Behind her, several human ghosts in white with some clothes on were chasing her!
These human ghosts looked extremely mutated, their hands and feet had become beyond the limit, their faces had melted, and when Lin Xian's power armor locked the gap, he found that the skin on these human ghosts was still stretching and changing rapidly, as if the mutation process was still in progress.
"Be careful!!"
Shizhi was aware of Lin Xian's arrival at this moment, and anxiously shouted to Lin Xian and the others, "These people have extremely high peak powers, they are very dangerous!"
“Help!”
Lin Xian and KIKI were approaching at high speed at this time, and they had already taken action immediately. KIKI raised his hand and used his telekinesis to directly catch the three human ghosts. Unexpectedly, this test made Lin Xian and KIKI intuitively understand what Shizhi said. One of the human ghosts felt the threat of KIKI's telekinesis, and suddenly leaped up in the air, shooting out its arm in a twisted posture. The next moment, its fingers turned into dozens of green slender synapses that split and entangled with each other, and came to KIKI and Lin Xian at a high speed with a green electric light!
KIKI's pupils shrank slightly, and he quickly stretched out his hand and clenched his fist, consolidating the density of his mental power, and froze those slender synapses in front of him. At this time, the green electric light on those synapses suddenly burst out intensively, and a powerful supernatural power fluctuation soared uncontrollably.
KIKI frowned, and immediately twisted the void, twisting and pushing away the synapses. The next moment, a green bio-electric arc exploded in the air, piercing the air with a force of annihilation. However, before it could be magnified, KIKI used his telekinesis to wrap it all up into a ball, and smashed it back towards the monster.
boom!
The white ghost was smashed into a high-rise building by this telekinetic ball. Green lightning burst out, directly blowing up half of its torso. The huge shock wave caused the outer wall of the building to collapse.
Lin Xian rushed towards Shizhi to block the other two human ghosts. One of the monsters with strange anti-feet suddenly stomped on a part of the wall. The huge force caused a dent in the collapsed part of the wall. Then the human ghost came directly towards Lin Xian like a cannonball at a speed that was imperceptible to the naked eye. At the same time, on Shizhi's side, a very fast human ghost flew at high speed in the air behind her, closing the distance with her. This human ghost had four eyes on its face, which were glowing red at this time, and shot four rays at Shizhi's power armor.
Buzz!
But the next moment, before those rays hit Shiori, they were inexplicably swallowed by a black ball of space, and a red light shone in the lens.
Lin Xian used the AT force field with one hand in the air to block the oncoming claws. With a loud bang, the huge impact force directly illuminated the phase rainbow ring of the superstring reactor behind him. Lin Xian frowned coldly and saw the situation on Shizhi's side. In a flash, he summoned several mechanical arms out of thin air to hold the man in the air, then pointed a point remotely, and the gravitational lens captured the ray and refracted it directly to split the man in front of him vertically!
Then he spread out his five fingers, and the gravitational lens expanded suddenly, moving forward, swallowing up the flying man with four-eyed rays and crushing him alive!
Lin Xian and KIKI quickly and efficiently dealt with the three human ghosts, and immediately took over the control of Shizhi's power armor. The three of them flew towards the mountains and dense forests.
"There are many strange creatures in the city, we have to avoid them first." Lin Xian took a breath and looked at the dark marker. When he found that there was no fluctuation, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wow, those three humanoids are no ordinary beasts. They have a peak power of at least 5,000. It would be fatal for an ordinary team to encounter one of them!" Kiki said to Shiori, "Shiori, how did you get targeted?"
Shiori shook her head and said, "I was just about to go to the beach to look for you guys when they set their sights on me. At first... they looked very human and were wearing power armor."
"Ah? You mean..."
"They all just mutated." Lin Xian analyzed in a deep voice: "They shouldn't be able to withstand the terrifying attack of the giant ocean god. These people are quite powerful, but the transformation into human ghosts is even more difficult to deal with."
"No wonder." Kiki responded: "Who are these people and why are they here?"
Shiori said at this time: "When I was escaping just now, I saw several small aircraft leaving. They should be... some kind of convoy. Their equipment is very similar."
"A convoy? Could it be the holy city that Vanessa and the others mentioned?" Kiki asked.
"I don't know. It was too chaotic just now, and these people just appeared out of nowhere, so I think they might be in the same group."
"Stop first."
Lin Xian and the other two stopped on a hillside, looking at the sky where the wind gradually died down and the clouds gradually dissipated, and turned back and said
"There must be other people on this island. It's just that the appearance of the Great Ocean God is too strange. Fortunately, this storm should be over soon."
Lin Xian looked at the time. It was not yet 4 p.m. If the storm passed by then, it would still be daylight. Now he just hoped that Infinity and the other teams would not encounter any problems.
Rumble.
The red thundercloud slowly shrank like a rending wound, tearing open several pale cracks in the darkness that engulfed the sky. The turbid sea water retreated, carrying the wreckage of the ruined city, leaving behind bubbling black slime and twisted metal fragments on the beach.
"The tide has receded." KIKI looked at the distant coastline. The roaring sea seemed to begin to quiet down, and all that was left around was the rumbling sound of the receding tsunami.
Lin Xian looked at the Geiger index and found that the radiation concentration had been greatly reduced. The mechanical signal began to recover, the sky became brighter, and the sunlight shone through the gaps in the clouds, casting golden beams onto the sea, as if the devastating tide just now was just an illusion.
"Let's go!"
After confirming that the situation was improving, Lin Xian and the other two immediately began to fly towards the west coast of the connecting port. Before they got close, all they could see were destroyed streets and buildings. Streets were smashed into ruins by the giant synapse, and deep gullies and scars were exposed on the ground, which looked particularly shocking.
As for the orbital station at the port, half of its dome had completely collapsed. Seeing this, Lin Xian's heart sank, and he started to communicate using the communicator while still in the air.
"Teacher Chen, can you hear me?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he contacted, a nervous voice rang out from the communicator: "Lin Xian! Are you okay?"
"We're fine."
Lin Xian and KIKI looked at each other, and they fell from the hole in the collapsed orbital station dome, and immediately saw the Infinity under the debris and ruins.
Fortunately, although covered by a large amount of glass fragments, the Infinity looked intact, and the platform it was on did not completely collapse. Chen Sixuan, Miao Lu and others walked out of the car fully armed, and they were relieved to see Lin Xian return.
"That's great. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to contact you."
"Are they all okay?" Lin Xian asked immediately upon seeing this: "Where are Qian Dele and the others?"
Chen Sixuan frowned upon hearing this and responded, "They had just rushed out before you arrived. We contacted Monica and Ning Jing's team through your drone link. They seemed to have run into some trouble, so Qian Dele led the team over to provide support."
After saying that, Chen Sixuan opened a holographic projection and displayed it in front of Lin Xian. In the picture, there was the wreckage of a device with a strange shape that looked like a floating airship, and there seemed to be explosions all around.
"What is this?" asked KIKI.
"Luo Yang said this seems to be similar to the attractant device Vanessa and the others used yesterday. We suspect the storm just now was caused by this thing."
Chen Sixuan looked at Lin Xian with a serious look: "Someone released it deliberately!"
Lin Xian's eyes flashed when he heard this: "I'll go take a look. You guys should stay in the car and don't go anywhere."
Chen Sixuan nodded: "Okay, the other party is well prepared, you have to be careful."
Lin Xian saw the device in the picture. Although it had not been mechanically scanned, he was already 80% certain that this thing was most likely a large attractant, so that group of people was most likely coming for his Infinity.
Thinking of this, Lin Xian's heart sank. Although he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't believe that a world-class disaster would occur. He had to figure out what happened just now. This thing was listed as creature No. 04 by the Phoenix Society. If they encountered this thing during the defense of Dawn City, they would have no chance of winning. But the human ghost incident just now made Lin Xian feel that this matter might not be that simple.
So without saying a word, he immediately took KIKI and Shiori and flew towards the main city, while contacting Qian Dele, Monica and others.
At this time, after the storm, the streets of Haiyan City were torn into a mess. On the broken streets, twisted steel bars were exposed, and glass fragments flashed dazzlingly in the sun. The air was filled with the fishy smell of sea water and the smell of burning metal. In a commercial district in the coastal area, bursts of violent fighting sounds came from the distance, superpowers burst out, monsters roared, and guns exploded. Ning Jing's team was in the east, Monica's team was in the north, and Qian Dele led Lu Chang, Shuqin, and Luo Yang to support from the west. Several blocks were all in battle.
There are actually hundreds of Holy City Organization members wearing black power armor, all fully armed. Various vehicles are shuttling through the ruins, bullets are flying, and psychics are coming from the sky and the ground. At the same time, there are a large number of Split Tail People, Red Bones and mutated Holy City Organization members who are attacking indiscriminately!
Monica stood on the edge of a half-collapsed high-rise building, her silver-white power armor gleaming coldly in the sunlight. She shot a powerful sonic sword towards the block below, instantly piercing the head of a sniper hiding in a hidden spot on the rooftop three hundred meters away, who was preparing to shoot.
"The east rooftop has been cleared~" Her lazy voice came through the communicator, but her posture was as majestic as a queen.
She immediately looked down at the street, put one hand on the headset, and said to Sasha:
"Shasha, shoot down their aircraft!"
"Okay!"
Boom boom boom!
Sasha drove the Flying Peach out from behind a building with violent air waves and a sense of oppression. Two plasma high-energy pulse ray guns shot out blue pulses, directly blowing up an armed aircraft that had just taken off. Then she started bombing all the way through the streets to help relieve the pressure on the building.
