Chapter 272: Words are too pale to describe my feelings towards her
"A magnitude 4 earthquake occurred in the Abyss, and the Divine Treasure House has completely awakened!"
"The hatching value has exceeded 30,000%. The dragon subspecies has revived and is rising at high speed!"
"Everyone, get ready for battle!"
Dark clouds covered the sky and alarms rang across the entire sea.
People gathered on the floating platform at sea, and the ships guarding the Sumeru throne removed their camouflage, revealing many weapons of mass destruction such as triple rapid-fire cannons and large-caliber anti-ship machine guns.
All the frogmen on the seabed returned, boarded the fishing boats and began to lay depth charges for the second time, this time with a larger range and deeper depth.
On the floating platform at sea, thousands of elite members of the Eight Snake Clans dressed in black combat uniforms moved and rushed towards their respective posts.
In the central command room, Inuyama He asked: "How long will it take for those corpse guards to reach the depth charge group?!"
"They are very fast. The first wave of hatched Deadpools will all float to the surface in ten minutes at most." Miyamoto Shio looked at the data on the console with an unpleasant expression:
“The incubation in Takamagahara is still going on, and we have no idea how many corpse guards are hiding in the abyss.
But with the current hatching frequency, we may not be able to stop it with just a few people, and we may even be wiped out."
"It will take 25 minutes to recover the Trieste. Dropping a nuclear bomb now will definitely affect the safety of the principal and his men!"
Professor Schneider's voice like a broken bellows was heard in the communication channel. The college headquarters would not sit idly by and watch the principal be killed by a nuclear bomb.
In a previous deep dive operation, he lost all his students. This time, is he going to lose his leader?!
"There is no time to hesitate. Prepare the nuclear bomb first and launch it directly when we reach a certain altitude." Ange's voice sounded with unquestionable determination:
"The bomb maniac in the Equipment Department has converted the Trieste's power system to nuclear energy, and I am now trying to launch the nuclear power module.
Good, there was no failure in the launch system and the nuclear power module has been separated from the Trieste.
Now, using the recovery system to pull us up, lithium batteries alone cannot quickly get out of the range of the nuclear power module explosion."
"Principal, we may be in trouble." Cheng Shuangfan suddenly spoke up, pointing at the volcanic rocks that were constantly cracking and collapsing:
"It's not just an earthquake, an undersea volcano is about to erupt."
"Also, those zombies are surrounding us." Caesar's voice on the other side also changed a little. He pointed at the bronze monsters outside the window that were attracted by the launch of the nuclear power cabin, saying that good fortune never comes alone and misfortune never comes alone.
Undersea earthquake + volcanic eruption + volcanic rock shedding + siege by corpse guards, could the situation be any worse?
Some brothers, yes.
In the ruins, several huge monsters rose up, shook off the gravel and sand on their bodies, revealing the figures of giant dragons.
It was a dragon-shaped corpse with its skin and flesh shriveled up, leaving only bones.
Countless silver-blue spots of light flickered in their empty chest cavities. They were ghost-toothed vipers. These small monsters, which were used to execute dragons in ancient times, now parasitized in the bodies of dragon-shaped corpse guards.
Fortunately, Yuan Zhisheng had been guarding the recovery system. After receiving the news from Angers, he immediately started the winch motor, released more than 8,000 meters of metal rope, and began to recover it quickly.
Whoosh——
The taut recovery rope dragged the Trieste upward rapidly, but after all, it was a huge ship weighing tons, and its rising speed was far slower than those corpse guards that could speed through the water.
Moreover, the surrounding volcanic rocks are falling off, and if it continues to float upward at this speed, it is very likely to hit the broken rocks and cause the body of the aircraft to rupture, which would be a real disaster.
"Caesar, you come and keep an eye on the control console." Seeing that the Trieste was about to be surrounded, Angers directly pulled Caesar in front of him and asked him to keep an eye on the status of the submersible at all times.
Then, his lion-like eyes lit up, and he looked at Cheng Shuangfan with burning eyes: "It's up to you from now on."
Cheng Shuangfan nodded vigorously and also lit up his golden eyes.
Yesterday they had discussed how to survive if an accident occurred on the seabed. The solution was to combine their words and spirits to force their way out.
As the invisible realm expanded, Caesar suddenly discovered that the zombies and falling volcanic rocks attacking from outside the submersible had slowed down.
He blinked, trying to confirm whether it was his hallucination, but the time displayed on the console almost stopped.
"This is..." He turned around and looked behind him, and found the principal sitting cross-legged on the ground. Opposite him was Cheng Shuangfan, who was kneeling on one knee with golden light in his eyes and his hand on the bottom plate of the Trieste.
"boom--"
With a strange sound, the legendary equipment in the history of human deep diving suddenly vibrated violently, and began to move serpentinely in the eight thousand meter deep sea under Caesar's horrified gaze.
Whether it was the falling volcanic rocks or the zombies that rushed over with sharp teeth and claws, the Trieste successfully avoided them in extremely dangerous situations. He even felt that his upper body speed was even faster.
What is going on?
Caesar didn't understand, but he was shocked.
Angers' words are time zero, and the Gattuso family has long recorded this information, so the one who controls the Trieste to display various micro-control skills on the seabed can only be the low-key Cheng Shuangfan.
Judging from his posture, the Word Spirit is not controlling the water flow, but more like controlling the Trieste to actively avoid danger.
So, this is the sword control that rarely appears in history, just like Time Zero? !
The diving team successfully avoided the crisis of destruction with the cooperation of Time Zero and Jian Yu, but the crisis has not been resolved.
At this time, through the observation port above, one can see that the sky above is full of black bronze monsters. Those corpses guarding Takama-ga-hara and the White King seem endless as far as the eye can see.
Not to mention whether the three of them can successfully escape from the encirclement of these monsters, even if they really float to the surface of the sea, the battlefield they will face will inevitably be even more tragic!
"boom--!!!"
A deafening roar exploded in the abyss. The underwater volcano erupted. At the moment when the magma erupted and submerged the ancient city of Takama-ga-hara, the nuclear power cabin that had been programmed also exploded.
A horrifying shock wave exploded on the seabed. The intense light and heat directly illuminated the deep sea. Those corpses that had not yet had time to hatch and escape were swallowed up by the explosion and magma, and could not even utter a shrill scream.
The shock wave generated by the explosion raged on the seabed, the volcanic rock wall collapsed at an even faster rate, and the corpses besieging the Trieste were blown away. In contrast, this legendary submersible cleverly used the thrust of the explosion to push itself upwards.
The storm is gathering, help me ascend to the clouds!
The submersible made a terrifying creaking sound and rushed upwards at the bottom of the sea.
With the help of the nuclear explosion shock wave, the pressure on Cheng Shuangfan and Angé was greatly reduced.
The former only needs to control the Trieste to avoid some difficult-to-confront existences and ignore everything else.
The latter had already closed his Word Spirit after breaking out of the encirclement of corpse guards. Maintaining time zero was also a huge burden for him. He must not lose his ability to act at such a critical moment.
But he couldn't relax yet. The nuclear explosion just now gave the port of Trieste the conditions to speed up. The distance of three thousand meters passed in a flash, and they had reached about five thousand meters under the sea.
At sea, the recovery system on top of the Sumeru pedestal was still operating, rapidly retracting the safety rope.
Yuan Zhisheng looked at the helicopters hovering in the air and the ships cruising on the sea without much expression on his face.
Although the gods are not in the burial place of the gods, the danger they face is no less than the resurrection of the White King. Tens of thousands of corpses are floating up rapidly, while they only have a few thousand people.
Even with enough modern weapons, it is impossible to achieve absolute crushing victory in the face of massive enemies.
With the shrill alarm echoing in his ears, he came over with a heavy sniper rifle and waited quietly for the corpses to surface.
Beside him, Crow, Yaksha and the Roulette Guards they led were also holding weapons. There was not much fear on their faces, only the heroic spirit to do something big.
Sakura still stood behind him as always, gun in hand, defending him against any attacks from behind.
He looked around at everyone, without saying anything inspiring or setting any flags, but just bowed slightly and said sincerely:
"I'll leave it to you all."
The head/young master of the Yuan family saluted him, which was somewhat contrary to Tiangang. Crow, Yaksha and other big men felt that their chests were burning with fire and vowed to defend their positions to the death.
They all knew that once the Corpse Guardians surfaced, the outside of the Sumeru Throne would be the area most vulnerable to attack by monsters, and they would be the first to be attacked.
But as long as Yuan Zhisheng stands in front, they will not feel despair.
After all, this is Amaterasu of the Snake Eight Clans, the man destined to lead the Snake Eight Clans to glory.
Just by looking at his back, you can tell that this person is terribly strong.
In the communication channel, Miyamoto Shio said that the first wave of corpse guards were about to approach the depth charge net.
Inuyama He looked at the Trieste which was only half recovered and felt a little anxious, but he didn't want to show it at this time.
He turned to look for the expert Ange had brought, he knew who that man was, and wanted to see how he would act in this situation.
But when I looked around, I couldn't see the person wearing sunglasses late at night.
And the old suitcase placed in the corner also disappeared.
Outside the central command room, an old man in a black suit was walking in the wind and rain carrying a heavy suitcase, looking into the distance at a young man standing on the edge of a platform, sniping and searching for the enemy.
That was his son and the girl who might become his daughter-in-law, and they were guarding the only way out for his old friend.
“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!”
There was a violent explosion under the sea a hundred meters below. The first wave of zombies entered the depth charge group and experienced the impact of volcanic eruptions and nuclear bomb explosions. These monsters experienced the horror of modern military technology at the moment they were about to surface.
The chain explosion of the depth charge group released dazzling flames and tens of thousands of hard steel balls in the sea water one hundred meters deep, cutting and crushing all living things along the way.
Looking down from above, it seemed that the dark sea surface suddenly became bright.
Soon the shock wave of the depth charge reached the sea surface, and huge white waves rose into the sky, almost blowing away the patrol boat on the sea.
"40% of the corpse guards survived!"
Along with Miyamoto Shio's roar, the surging waves had not yet subsided, but the burly steel-blue body had already leaped out of the sea, rising to a height of four or five meters like a flying fish.
"Fire! Fire!"
"Kill them!"
Seeing the enemy finally show up, the eight groups of Sheqi, who had been prepared for a long time, opened fire at the same time.
The helicopter in the sky was hovering in the air, and the machine gun was firing wildly, and in an instant, the corpse guard who jumped out of the sea was pushed back into the sea.
The water police ship fired torpedoes at the group of corpse guards, and the triple-mounted naval guns roared and fired. The law enforcement officers on the patrol boats held machine guns and used the special mercury explosive bombs made by the Yanliu Research Institute to severely attack Hongru and other monsters who only knew how to kill.
On top of the Sumeru pedestal, Yuan Zhisheng held up a sniper rifle and shot the corpse guard in the head.
The first wave of zombies were few in number and were easily suppressed.
But before they could completely destroy it, Miyamoto Shio's roar sounded again:
"The second wave of zombies has arrived!"
As they were talking, hundreds of monsters with human bodies and snake tails jumped out from the bottom of the sea.
This time there were no depth charges to reduce the number. They did not lose their formation in panic, but found the police ships and patrol boats that were firing on the seabed, and started killing the moment they landed on the ships.
The hybrid camp began to suffer casualties, and as the third and fourth waves of zombies surfaced, the casualties would only increase.
Yuan Zhisheng stood on the top and kept shooting. He sniped a corpse guard who jumped onto the police boat and tried to strangle the barrel of the ship's gun with his tail, and successfully rescued all the people on the boat.
But he could only do this, so he had to aim his gun at the sea surface closer to the floating platform. At this time, the third wave of corpses were about to surface, and this time their target was no longer just the Kanto branch members on the water police ships and patrol boats.
The Sumeru throne, as immovable as a mountain, will also become the target of their attack.
…
"I am a hunter of love~
Now I will list you as a hunting target~
Please don't resist, I'll make you happy~"
The sky in Tokyo was dark and it was raining heavily.
The sky in Yokohama was not dark and the atmosphere was warm.
In the Yokohama International Stadium, Chinatsu Aoki, who had changed into a new performance costume, sang her latest song "Love Hunter", winning cheers and applause from tens of thousands of spectators that lasted for more than a minute.
After the applause and cheers stopped, Chinatsu Aoki talked about the creative process of the new song.
"It was a very clever encounter, and I went to the amusement park to look for inspiration..."
There was a slight gasp at the end of her voice. In the close-up on the big screen, her eyes with glitter makeup suddenly looked towards the VIP area:
“The two special guests who inspired me are here~”
Following her gesture, the camera suddenly turned to the audience, and two extremely good-looking boys and girls appeared on the big screen on the stage.
The boy was cheerful and handsome, and the girl was delicate and bright. They were wearing couple outfits and biting lollipops in their mouths. The girl had a little surprise on her face, as if she didn't know why she was suddenly cueed.
“Huh?!”
There were exclamations from the audience.
"Wow, this girl is so cute. Why do I feel like she's cuter than Xia Xia?"
"Baga, Xia Xia is the cutest, you fake fan!"
"How could such a cute girl have a boyfriend?"
"Wake up, even if she doesn't have a boyfriend, she won't fall for you."
"Hey, why do I feel that girl seems a little familiar? I have seen her somewhere before."
"Hey, isn't this the KFC glutton couple from before?! I still have a photo with them!"
Amidst the noisy discussions and Chinatsu Aoki's cordial invitation, Lu Mingfei took Eri and walked onto the stage.
The camera follows her all the time, and it can be clearly seen that Eri is a little nervous. After all, being among 70,000 people and being stared at by 70,000 people are two completely different concepts.
If it had happened in the past, she might have been so nervous that she cried, and then been taken home by the terrified Yuan Zhisheng, who was afraid that she would accidentally cast the judgment and directly transform into a native and turn the more than 70,000 spectators below into spring mud.
Chinatsu Aoki had just sung several songs in a row, and now she took the opportunity of interviewing the two of them to take a break. It just so happened that everyone was very interested in these two good-looking young couple.
"Say hello to everyone." She took on the role of guest host.
Lu Mingfei was very frugal with his words: "My name is Lu Mingfei."
Eri pulled his hand hard, looked at the microphone handed to her, glanced at him, and then answered in a low voice:
"My name is Eri."
Aoki Chinatsu, who was holding the microphone, probably could not have imagined in her dreams what kind of waves this scene would cause if the top leaders of the Eight Snake Families saw it—Oh my god, this host and the group of people below were not dead? !
I must still be dreaming!
"Eri-chan is a little shy." Aoki Chinatsu smiled and did not embarrass the shy Eri, but turned to look at Lu Mingfei:
"Can you tell us how you met?"
This question brought a playful smile to Lu Mingfei’s face: “We met while playing games. Eri is a stay-at-home mom who wanted to see the outside world, so I kidnapped her from home.”
"Elopement? How romantic. Have you got your parents' consent?" Chinatsu Aoki helped the audience express their doubts.
"No, her family disagreed and beat them up before she ran away."
The boy smiled harmlessly under the stage lights.
The audience erupted in good-natured laughter, and it was obvious that everyone thought this was a joke.
"Then is there anything you want to say to Eri-chan?" Aoki Chinatsu completely immersed herself in the role of the host. "Since you dared to elope with her, you must have made up your mind to do it."
"Of course, if you're embarrassed to express your feelings in front of your loved one, you can also shout out to Eri's family here and tell them that they're taking good care of her and ask everyone not to worry."
At the right moment, the big screen cut to the two people's clasped hands, with their fingers interlocked, which brought out another round of good-natured laughter.
"The voice is too pale."
Lu Mingfei looked down at Aoki Chinatsu's uniquely shaped guitar, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly:
“Since it’s a concert, of course we have to express it through singing.”
