Chapter 42 Heavy Losses



"Huh? Why is the sewer blocked?"

Every New Yorker household that needed to use the sewer system immediately noticed the problem and received a notice from the New York authorities.

The general meaning is that there are some problems with the sewer, the government has already solved these problems, and it will be restored soon. Please don't panic, citizens.

Li Zaian discovered that something was wrong at the first moment.

He is a South Korean who works and lives in the United States. He used to go to school in Washington and now lives in New York. He is the owner of a sewer pipe manufacturing and after-sales repair company in New York.

He was very clear about the quality of his company's sewer pipes. Although they were not that good, they would be fine for three or four years. Moreover, they had just replaced a batch of sewer pipes three months ago. How could there be problems now?

Therefore, Li Zaian immediately realized that the problem with the sewer was not caused by the pipes themselves, but was definitely caused by external forces.

So...what exactly is that external force?

Li Zai'an smiled slightly, put on his coat, and planned to go to the company to have a good talk with the officials.

He knew that his company was definitely the largest sewer maintenance company in New York. If anything happened to the sewer pipes, the New York government would definitely find professionals like him to carry out the repairs.

And by then, it will be profitable for me.

......

"What happened to the boys in the army? Why did they all lose contact?"

Major General Borenis, a US resident with a white beard, looked at the New York governor with a stern face and a hint of anger: "I've said it before, the sewers are not suitable for our young men in the army. Any problems there should be left to the people in the fire department!"

"General Borenis, don't be angry."

The New York governor spoke to the general, trying his best to calm his anger: "None of us wanted to have problems in the sewers. The US military is here to protect the American people. Now that problems have arisen, they naturally have no choice but to take action."

"The fire department's weapons and equipment are not as professional as those of the military. The President authorized you to handle this matter."

The general said in a cold voice, "One-third of New York's sewage system is having problems, and it's clearly in the sewers. I just want to know why you mobilized the army to the sewers to do the work of maintenance workers?!"

As the commander of all military operations in New York and a major general of the United States, he actually knew nothing about the purpose of this operation!

This is what makes him most angry. What's there to be angry about those guys who were sent to the sewers? Obeying orders is a soldier's duty. The United States needs them to go there. It must be safer there than some battlefields abroad, right?

This general had just been transferred back from a battlefield opened up by the United States abroad and did not know much about some things happening inside the United States.

The Governor of New York hesitated for a moment, then said, "Of course, General."

"We received intelligence from the Church of Eternal Night that a terrifyingly large monster, a bug, had been discovered in the sewers. To nip the danger in the bud, we mobilized an elite military company to go into the sewers and destroy the monster."

The general looked at the New York governor, then at the other government officials who believed in the story. He took a deep breath, as if he couldn't believe his ears. "What did you say? Church? Monster?"

The general found this ridiculous, as if these New York government officials had been fed some kind of bullshit. "Because of these ridiculous reasons? The president actually agreed to it?"

"OMG, this world is getting crazy."

As a general with traditional military thinking, Borennis obviously found it difficult to accept this reason.

When did these illusory religions become able to control the will of the government?

The Governor of New York looked at the incredulous general and patted him on the shoulder. "General Borenis, after this incident, I'm afraid you will understand everything."

"hehe."

The general chuckled and was about to say something when his assistant suddenly rushed into the conference room and said to everyone present: "Ladies and gentlemen, a second lieutenant in our army has emerged from the sewer."

Before the general could speak, the Governor of New York took the initiative to ask, "Oh? What news did this lieutenant bring back? How many people came out with him?"

The general's assistant was stunned for a moment. After glancing at the general, he took the initiative to speak, "Um... Lieutenant John is the commander of the Ninth Squad. According to him, he is the only one left from the Ninth Squad. As for the news... Lieutenant John said he would tell us after seeing the general."

The general glanced at all the officials and staff, nodded slightly and said, "Please invite Lieutenant John in and have him report to us."

"I want to know what's in the sewer!"

Following the general's command, Second Lieutenant John, who had just crawled out of the sewer after a narrow escape, arrived before the group of powerful figures in New York. He saluted and said, "Second Lieutenant John Almond of Company G, Battalion A, 17th Division of the U.S. Amphibious Forces, reporting to you!"

The general nodded solemnly and said, "Alright, Lieutenant, report to us what you saw."

"Yes, General!"

John took a deep breath and began to recall his experience more than ten minutes ago. A hint of fear couldn't help but flash across his eyes.

What he experienced in the sewer has become a nightmare that he will never forget.

"After receiving the order, our unit advanced towards the target area for about twenty minutes and encountered the enemy!"

"enemy..."

Lieutenant John took a deep breath, calming his turbulent heart: "The enemy is a group of...worms..."

"The worms support a giant, disgusting, filthy worm leader who is constantly laying eggs!"

"Our bullets can't do any damage to the worm leaders, and our flamethrowers are useless in front of them!"

"Finally, our company used eight grenades to blow up a section of the sewer pipe, which gave us a few seconds to retreat."

"Since we retreated separately, I was the only one evacuating... My combat recorder can prove everything I said."

After saying that, Lieutenant John took off the video recorder installed on his helmet and presented it to a group of senior officials. After the senior officials took the video, they fell into silence to a certain extent.

Dozens of miles away from them, the top leaders of the Church of Eternal Night also gathered together to pray to their supreme god, representing the monarch of Eternal Night.
