I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

"..." The V1 commander's mind was buzzing. He gritted his teeth and said, "Report the ammunition quantity!"

"Conventional ammunition fully loaded, 2 Class A crystal rounds remaining, 5 Class B crystal rounds remaining."

"Conventional ammunition fully loaded, 1 Class A crystal round remaining, 5 Class B crystal rounds remaining."

"Save your ammo, everyone! If anyone misses a shot, I'll kick them to death! Once we're done, head straight back to town to resupply!"

"Yes!"

......

"A9 requests backup! A9 requests backup! A large number of Night Specters and those damned exploding bugs have appeared here! We can't hold on much longer!"

"Received, awaiting reply."

"..."

Peng An picked up his phone and dialed a number. "Hello, are you ready over there?"

"Okay, okay, as soon as possible."

After Peng An finished the call, he switched to A9 channel: "Eastern Theater Command, please respond if you hear this."

"Eastern Theater Command, received."

"You all leave the A9-C13 area immediately. If anyone has gone too far behind enemy lines, make them retreat immediately. Something big is coming!"

"Yes!"

Minutes later, a satellite painted with the United States bald eagle symbol deployed its weapons bay over China, dropping spheres that created meteor-like sparks in the atmosphere before falling into the swarm of insects.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The temperature on the battlefield suddenly rose several levels, with black flames stretching for tens of kilometers. The area in front was completely engulfed in flames, with the temperature once approaching 6,000 degrees Celsius. Insects and beasts inside could not survive for more than half a minute before being burned to death. The high temperature distorted the sky, forcing even the flying moths to avoid this place and attack from other directions.

Hellfire.

The support came from the United States, as previously agreed.

This round of Hellfire has yielded significant results. The sea of ​​fire here will last for a very long time, and for some time, this area will be a safe buffer zone, separating the insectoid beasts.

call out--

A silvery beam of light shot up from afar, heading precisely towards Peng An. Peng An neither dodged nor evaded; when the silvery beam reached him, it was blocked by a blue protective shield.

Then, dozens or even hundreds of mercury jets were fired simultaneously.

"You all see the strategic missile formation, right? Launch a long-range strike there immediately."

Whoosh whoosh—

Behind them, ballistic missiles soared into the sky, tracing beautiful paths through the atmosphere before landing in the spot of that column of mercury light.

.....

Before long, countless silvery beams of light shot out again. Seeing this, Peng An said, "This won't do. You guys should just use neutron bombs!"

A few minutes later, a huge fireball rose up in that spot, and after that, no more columns of mercury shot out.

The battle continued.

A day later, the insectoid beasts broke through the dense barrage of fire and arrived at the foot of the city wall.

Most importantly, these damned insects are incredibly good at climbing walls. Any one of them can walk on a 90-degree vertical wall as if it were flat ground, which is ridiculous. This has greatly increased the pressure on the city's defenses, and they had to use lubricant to ease the situation a little.

In Shu City, after Yan Ziming killed the last threatening insect beast in the area, a ball of purple light separated from his body.

"Xiaoxi, you stay here, I'm going somewhere else!"

"Ah."

34. Soul-Shaking Aura

Yan Ziming hadn't experienced such an intense yet utterly meaningless battle in a long time.

All day long, she unleashed her full firepower. Cricket-like insect beasts were no match for her, and even SS-rank Sky Beetles couldn't withstand a single blow from her. There were no SSS-rank beasts present, so the whole day felt like she was using a flamethrower to kill cockroaches—boring, yet challenging.

If I had to put it in a way, it's like playing a video game, where you have to protect your target from being defeated amidst a massive army.

But in reality, this is not a game, but a war where lives are at stake.

A war of life and death.

Soon, the Southern Guangdong Military Administrative Region will also be embroiled in a fierce battle, and that will truly be a test.

"Xiao Xi, can you stay here?"

Since a ninth-tier combat power is enough to wreak havoc on this battlefield, Yan Ziming doesn't necessarily need to unleash his full sequential-level combat power. It's better to split up and take care of both sides at the same time.

"Ah."

The useless Xi naturally agreed. She could unleash her Sequence-level combat power anywhere, so there was nothing to be afraid of!

"Then I'll leave this place to you. I'm going back to Xiyue City."

Yan Ziming decisively separated the useless Xi from his body, and as a result, a purple star rose up here. The land encompassed by lightning instantly became extremely powerful, and many insects and beasts died on the spot.

whoosh-

Shu City was handed over to the useless Xi, and Yan Ziming went to support Xiyue City. The situation there was equally critical. It had always been a bridgehead against attacks from the west and had suffered very serious losses in the Battle of Shanhai. It had only just recovered and was now facing a second difficult test.

The situation in Panzhihua City is also somewhat difficult. In addition, Qingshui City, which is located in the rear, will soon be in danger as insects and beasts from the north, that is, from Russia, have bypassed Shu City and begun to attack Qingshui City.

The current situation is that we are attacked from both sides, and we can only rely on Yan Ziming to travel around and take care of the four cities.

"The Knight of Thunderstorm is back!"

When the garrison of Xiyue City saw the rapidly moving thunderstorm clouds on the horizon, their morale soared. At such times, Yan Ziming always managed to lead them to drive the insect beasts back more than ten miles.

Now, the insectoid beasts have begun to climb the walls and attack, greatly increasing the pressure on the city's defenses. Some insectoid beasts have already crossed the city walls and started to escape into the city, which will be a security risk in the future.

Fortunately, all the residents of West Moon City had been evacuated to underground shelters; otherwise, a single insectoid beast could have caused enormous damage.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——!

Yan Ziming circled around Xiyue City, like a waterfall of thunder and rain, obscuring all the scenery there.

Boom boom boom boom——

The insect-like beasts that approached the city wall were instantly torn apart by such powerful firepower, and the situation was brought under control. She then landed on Commander Peng An and asked efficiently, "What's the specific situation now?"

“If you had arrived any later, the city would probably have fallen again.” Peng An said with a wry smile, “Fortunately, it’s under control now, but those blazing moths have put us in a very passive position, and we don’t have many gas masks left.”

"I'll take care of them first. You guys hold the ground for a while. Have your people protect the ammunition and critical equipment that can't get wet," Yan Ziming reminded them.

When they arrived, the place was already filled with scales. Even though the soldiers were prepared, with each of them carrying three gas masks and some key areas protected by the "dome," the density of the scales was still too high. It not only affected their vision but also kept getting into the corners of their clothes, causing varying degrees of damage.

After all, no matter how thorough the defenses are, it's impossible to seal off every single gap in the body, right? Otherwise, many people would probably faint from the heat before the battle is over.

Another critical point is that the scales have fallen into every corner of the city. Even after the battle ends, West Moon City will be unusable for a period of time. Contact with the scales will cause skin ulceration and blindness. It cannot be used by the public until it is cleaned up.

Those high-powered hair dryers that were prepared long ago, even after being improved, still had their air inlets blocked by the massive amount of powder, and one after another they became useless.

Therefore, if this problem is not resolved soon, we won't be able to last two days at all, and we might not even make it to morning.

Rumble...

Yan Zimo flew into the sky, thunder rumbled and lightning intertwined to form a dense electric net, pressing down and forcing the moths to lower their altitude. They immediately scattered and fled.

"Hmm... my moves don't work very well against those that fly in the sky... If Mu Mu or Qian Xue were here, that would be great."

The greater range of activity in the air means there is a high probability of hitting empty air. Anti-aircraft weapons are helpless against them, and can only drive them around like a school of fish. Although it is possible to kill a large number of them, their numbers are too large and they are scattered. Killing a large number is just a drop in the ocean compared to their total number.

If Mu Mulai were to come, it would be different. He could directly create a massive spatial rift, achieving multiple benefits and resolving many problems at once.

"Let's solve this scale problem first..."

The thunder and lightning above the thunderclouds became much more intense. Soon, a dampness filled the air, and a few minutes later, a light drizzle began to fall. After a while, it turned into a thunderstorm.

Affected by this, the dust and scales began to settle rapidly, and the atmosphere of the entire city changed under the thunderstorm. The tense situation seemed to ease a bit as a result. The rain washed the dust and scales off the soldiers and relieved the heat. Many of them readily took off their protective masks and shouted as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

"readily!"

They had never realized that rainwater was such a wonderful thing. Everyone says that water nourishes all things, and now they truly understand.

"This won't work, we can't possibly kill them all! How long will this go on?"

On the other side, Yan Ziming was tired of killing. She had killed at least tens of millions of insect beasts in the past half day, but the insect beasts' attacks did not decrease at all. On the contrary, they seemed to be getting more and more intense.

"Aaaaaah, Ina, wake up right now!!!"

Yan Ziming continued to brandish lightning, making frantic noises.

........

"Report: The garrison of the Beian Military Administrative District has officially engaged in combat with the insectoid forces."

Late at night, Huang Tao received a report from his subordinates.

"I heard it from afar. You defend the city according to the plan, and watch out for the underground. Don't let these insects steal anything."

"Yes!"

Huang Tao just received a message from Mo Sheng that it seems they have discovered the traces of the Gu King and are currently searching the department stores in Sheng'an City. They are waiting for the final results.

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.
