Chapter 60 Missile Barrage! The Last Roar of Human Civilization!
"—Launch the missile!!!"
Chen Yan's cold and resolute order was instantly transmitted through the encrypted channel to the command rooms of several destroyers that were on high alert!
"boom--!!!!"
Almost at the same time the order was issued!
The Vanguard, along with the four destroyers of the same class that were escorting it, had their 64-cell universal vertical launch systems, which gleamed with a cold metallic luster, pop open with a "click" sound!
White smoke rose!
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Hundreds of dazzling orange-red trails of flame lit up the dark night sky in an instant!
Hundreds of cruise missiles, brimming with the fury of human civilization, shot into the sky with thunderous force, trailing sharp whistles that tore through the air. They drew hundreds of deadly arcs in the air, like a divine meteor shower from the heavens, and crashed down on the deepest and darkest core area of the zombie horde, five kilometers away!
At this moment, time seemed to slow down.
On the deck, whether it was Zhou Hai, who was slumped on the ground, or Zhao Ze and Su Li, who were struggling to stay upright, or the soldiers who had just recovered from the mental shock, everyone subconsciously raised their heads and stared blankly at the magnificent sight that pierced the apocalyptic night sky.
In their pupils, the hundreds of deadly meteors with trails of flame were reflected.
That is the crystallization of human industry, the pinnacle of technology, and the roar of order!
On this ocean ruled by monsters and despair, human civilization... roars its last!
next second.
The light engulfed everything.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Rumble—!!!"
A series of explosions, indescribable in their own right, detonated in the heart of the zombie horde!
Giant fireballs, each over a hundred meters in diameter, rose like artificial suns from the sea, expanding wildly outward, devouring and destroying everything in their path!
The terrifying shockwave, carrying ultra-high temperatures capable of melting steel, instantly evaporated tens of thousands of tons of seawater, creating brief but terrifying vacuum zones!
In that area, those nearly one hundred elite floating corpses that had previously filled everyone with despair, their tough skin and bone armor, capable of withstanding heavy machine gun fire, were as fragile as paper in the face of the pinnacle of human civilization's destructive weapons!
Before they could even let out a cry of pain, they were instantly decomposed, vaporized, and torn into the most primitive particles by the extreme temperature and shock wave!
Those indestructible bones and incredibly strong flesh became the most laughable joke at this moment.
At the heart of the zombie horde, in the densest darkness, a pair of scarlet eyes revealed, for the first time, the terror and horror stemming from biological instinct!
It let out a sharp, distorted shriek, as if summoning its guards, or perhaps trying to escape into the deeper sea.
But it was all too late!
The missile's coverage speed far exceeds its reaction limit!
Saturation-style destruction has arrived.
The ten-minute-long saturation bombardment felt like it had lasted an eternity.
When the last missile's flash died down, a deathly silence fell on the deck of the Vanguard.
Everyone was frozen in place, staring blankly at the hellish scene in the distance.
The once boundless, dense, and suffocating black horde of corpses was now completely wiped out!
An unimaginably huge fan-shaped blank area appeared on the sea surface.
Countless burning limbs and black grease from frying floated on the boiling seawater, and the air was filled with a strong, nauseating smell of burning flesh.
"Did we...we won?"
A young soldier, watching the devastating scene before him, trembled as he muttered to himself.
After a brief period of deathly silence.
"Ooo ...
"We won! We won!!"
"Long live humanity! Long live mankind!!!"
A deafening roar of cheers erupted from the deck like a volcanic eruption!
All the soldiers who survived the ordeal embraced each other excitedly. They laughed and cried, throwing their weapons into the air, freely expressing the immense emotional shift from despair to ecstasy.
This was the first time in the apocalypse that they had ever felt the greatness and power of humanity again!
"Holy crap..." Zhou Hai's mouth gaped open, wide enough to fit an egg. He stared blankly at the cleared sea area, muttering, "This...this is...the power of a nation?"
Zhao Ze and Su Li were also shocked, so shocked by this pure, unreasonable, and destructive power that they were speechless for a long time.
"Hahaha! That was awesome! That was fucking awesome!"
After realizing what was happening, Zhou Hai excitedly slapped his thigh. Pointing to the remaining fish still wriggling on the surface of the sea, he shouted at Chen Yan, "General Chen! Awesome! Look over there, there are still quite a few scum! Let's do another round and scatter them all!"
However, Chen Yan's expression remained solemn.
He shook his head, his voice low and hoarse: "Every missile we use is one less. In this post-apocalyptic world, the industrial system has collapsed, raw material production areas have fallen, and engineers have been killed or wounded. These are all non-renewable strategic resources, humanity's last trump card."
He paused, his voice growing even colder: "That volley just now wiped out one-third of Nanjing's defenses."
He looked at the massive, still-large horde of surviving zombies in the distance, though severely damaged, and his tone became cold and realistic.
"The battle ahead depends on ourselves."
The cheers from the crowd gradually subsided.
Yes, in this post-apocalyptic world where civilization has been severed, production lines have stopped, resources have been depleted, and every missile is one less to be used. Once they're all gone, they're truly gone.
On the deck, only Lu Sheng was there, looking at the sea area that had been bombed clean, his lips twitching slightly.
What pained him was not the future of humanity, but the elite floating corpses that were blown to pieces and had no value even in being salvaged!
This is... how many intermediate-level spirit source cores will be lost!
What a waste of money! So incredibly wasteful!
Just as Lu Sheng was secretly grumbling and feeling sorry for the experience packs he hadn't yet obtained,
Mutation, rebirth!
"roar------!!!!!"
A roar, more venomous and violent than ever before, filled with endless pain and hatred, suddenly boomed from the depths of the boiling smoke in the distance!
That leader-level floating corpse, it's not dead!
Not only did it not die, the missile bombardment actually enraged this sea overlord!
The remaining hundreds of thousands of low-level floating corpses seemed to have received a final death order. They no longer cared about any formation or tactics and, like madmen, launched a final and most frenzied suicidal charge towards the steel defense line from all directions!
Their sole purpose is to use their lowly flesh and blood to deplete the last ammunition on human warships!
Just when everyone's attention was drawn to the frenzied horde of zombies on the water's surface!
Inside the command center of the Vanguard, Captain Li Zhen's voice, distorted with terror, boomed over the loudspeaker!
"Warning! Warning! Sonar detected extremely high energy! Target is descending at high speed! Heading towards our hull!"
"The quantity... at least sixty!"
"They are rapidly approaching the hulls of all the warships at positions 1-5!!!"
P.S.: This is the third update today. The protagonist will soon reach level 5 Spirit Source Master and unlock the Spirit Source Secret Technique. Stay tuned...
