Chapter 485 - 485 Hero
485 Hero
In the past, everyone would panic at the sound of the alarm, but they were used to it now.
The alarm indicated that sea monsters were attacking the human coastal cities.
The old chief walked into the command center, and a few officers, including Wu Mo, followed suit.
The screen clearly showed that five terrifying sea monsters with code names were gathering to attack a port city on the southeastern coast.
This port city with a long history of trade was facing a huge threat.
The five sea monsters gradually approached it and used their unique skills to instantly destroy the entire port.
Fortunately, the port city was prepared for the arrival of such monsters.
It had been cleared, and the sea monsters could only destroy a limited number of things.
Even so, armed forces quickly arrived on the scene and instantly formed a defensive net.
This kept the monsters in the sea and five hundred meters away from the coast.
Additionally, Wu Mo was ready to test whether his newly developed high-density ray device could work.
Therefore, the machine gun was urgently sent to the coastal city.
The attacks of the five sea monsters came like a tidal wave, but this bought time for everyone to set up their defenses.
Someone exclaimed, “Look! That’s an evolved Omni-dwelling Demon Spider! And that one should be the Titan Lord!”
Two of the monsters had been identified. The other two were rare, but they had also been given code names by the military.
Meanwhile, the last unfamiliar sea monster was no weaker than any of the others.
At this moment, the five sea monsters attacked in a frenzy. Their eyes were filled with hatred as if they were exacting revenge on the humans.
“These five sea monsters might be joining forces to dole out justice on us humans because the Sea Monster King was injured,” the old chief said in a deep voice.
Wu Mo nodded. Clearly, these sea monsters were extremely vengeful.
Under the cover of the armored vehicles, the high-intensity ray machine gun gradually entered the firing range. The sea monsters were only two hundred meters away from the port at this point.
All of a sudden, the machine gun fired a terrifying beam that shot straight into the sky!
The purple light flashed in the air and caught everyone by surprise.
This beam of light that could seemingly destroy the world condensed into a ray of light that instantly pierced through one of the monsters’ single eye.
It rolled around in the sea and stopped moving after a while.
“He killed it!” someone exclaimed in surprise. He actually killed a sea monster! It’s too powerful. This is the terror of a high-intensity ray device!”
Everyone was extremely excited, and this event undoubtedly boosted their morale.
When the sea monsters first appeared, no weapon could defeat them in a short time.
Of course, nuclear bombs were an exception, but it was impossible for them to drop nuclear bombs near coastal cities.
At this critical moment, the high-intensity ray machine gun displayed its astonishing power. It could fatally hit the sea monster within a kilometer’s range and kill it in one shot.
This groundbreaking invention greatly improved the humans’ ability to fight the sea monsters.
The atmosphere in the entire command center instantly became cheerful, and the heavy haze that had accumulated over the past few days quietly dispersed.
When Wu Mo saw this, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Without a doubt, the advent of this machine gun heralded a new era in the development of human weapons.
Once this high-intensity ray device was mass-produced and equipped in the army, how lethal would it be.
With that said, Wu Mo knew how complicated the manufacturing process of this machine gun would be. Even top military factories might not be able to develop it quickly.
Therefore, he needed to improve in the future to increase its range, stability, and other aspects.
Even so, this model was enough to deal with five sea monsters.
After one was killed, the other four sea monsters became frightened and retreated.
However, they quickly regained their courage and rushed to the port again after they protected the vital parts of their bodies.
This made the machine gun operator even more cautious. He could not waste his nine shots.
Finally, after some precise calculations, the machine gun operator found the perfect angle and timing to release the purple ray.
The ray hit a black orifice on the Omni-dwelling Demon Spider’s body, which was either its eye or mouth.
There was a flash of purple light, and the demonic spider let out an ear-piercing shriek that was reminiscent of a jet plane taking off.
For a moment, waves surged as if they were being pushed by the screams, and they rushed toward the port.
The crowd watched the oncoming waves and retreated as they prayed silently for victory in this fierce battle.
The Omni-dwelling Demon Spider actually turned around and fled after it was seriously injured. Although it did not die immediately, its combat strength had been greatly reduced.
Seeing this, the remaining three sea monsters tried to grab the opportunity to retreat as well.
However, one more ray of light pierced through the sky and accurately hit another sea monster. While it did not hit its vital points, it caused serious injury.
By then, the high-intensity ray gun’s firing count had been exhausted, and they could only wait for it to recharge.
Mankind could only rely on compound weapons and nuclear submarines to counterattack.
The remaining three sea monsters were very cunning. They discovered that the humans could no longer use the high-intensity ray machine gun. As a result, they immediately turned the bow of the ship and launched a counterattack.
They hid cleverly in the sea and only revealed a small part of the water’s surface before quickly rushing to the port.
When they were about 150 meters away from the port, they suddenly exposed their bodies to the surface of the sea and launched a fierce attack.
In the command center, the old chief could not help but ask Wu Mo if he could modify the high-intensity ray machine gun so that it could fire without limit.
Wu Mo mentioned that the next step of his improvement plan was to mass-produce machine guns and install them on cruisers or destroyers.
The old chief expressed his support, but the current emergency situation could not wait.
On the screen, the fatal threat of the three sea monsters put the people in despair.
Perhaps it was due to the deaths of their companions and the Omni-dwelling Demon Spider’s injuries, but they ignored their own pain and fought bravely.
Such a reckless combat approach made compound missiles ineffective.
In moments of desperation, humans had to stand tall and fight these crafty sea monsters to the death, strengthen their resolve, and protect their homeland.
Future improvements and research had to also be carried out continuously to provide more powerful weapons for mankind’s survival.
It was the only way they could obtain the final victory in their battle against the sea monsters.
Just then, an urgent message came from the front line. A group of brave warriors had volunteered to act as bait to lure the three sea monsters into the deep sea and destroy them with nuclear bombs.
The old chief and all the officers fell silent. They sighed at the soldiers’ bravery and fearlessness.
Wu Mo was also moved. One should know that this mission was not easy.
First of all, luring the sea monster into the deep sea required them to travel a long distance, and these soldiers could be killed by a sea monster at any time.
Second of all, even if they successfully lured the monsters to the deep sea, the soldiers would not be able to evacuate in time when the nuclear bomb was launched.
Even if they did not have physical contact with the nuclear bomb, they would not be able to escape the demonic claws of radiation, which would leave behind serious repercussions.
In the command center, everyone sighed deeply and did not know how to respond.
Someone had thought of sending special forces to lure the sea monsters away from the port and destroy them with a small nuclear bomb near the coast.
However, this would inevitably cost the outstanding elite warriors their lives.
