Resurrection Empire

Chapter 610 - 229: The Third Day, Sutured Giant Beast, Sharp Downturn_3

"It’s madness... complete madness."

Ma Dafu sat down in a daze, then stood up and walked to the window of the war command center on the upper levels of the Town Government Tower, gazing into the distance, unable to speak a word.

Outside, smoke signals rose all around the town.

A large number of Ruined Beasts appeared in the streets and alleys, running wild.

The Scavengers, either wielding guns or clad in War Armor, activated their fusion gene abilities, or kept throwing all sorts of explosives, fiercely fighting the Ruined Beasts in different parts of the town.

The wastelanders were retreating step by step under the endless onslaught of the Beast Tide.

The slum shanties collapsed in rows under the shockwaves, and even the newly built alloy buildings occasionally deformed and crumbled under the fierce impact.

The situation had drastically deteriorated, completely beyond salvation.

One hideout after another, harboring defenseless wastelanders, was discovered. Even with guns or knives in everyone’s hands, they couldn’t organize an effective defense. Each hideout swiftly turned into Hell on Earth.

The base of the Town Government Tower trembled loudly.

Ma Dafu knew what this meant; the enormous underground hideout sheltering nearly twenty thousand wastelanders beneath the tower had been blown open.

"It’s over."

Ma Dafu slumped back into his seat, opened a drawer, took out a handgun, bit down hard, and charged out.

In the Town Government Tower’s underground hideout, an old woman with dark circles under her eyes picked up a Scorpion Lion Heavy Sniper.

This gun was Yujin’s legacy.

It had been delivered there that morning.

Since receiving the gun, she had been in tears, up until this very moment.

The old woman wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes to make her vision a little clearer, and stared fiercely at the doorway ahead.

Bang!

A gigantic figure of a hyper-evolved Level Three Armorback Lizard appeared at the doorway.

Boom!

The old woman pulled the trigger.

The terrifying recoil tore her frail body apart, blood splattering everywhere.

But that ferocious Level Three Ruined Beast was also blown apart by the upgraded Scorpion Lion Heavy Sniper!

The next second, a fist-sized evolutionary Level Three Silver Line Moon Rabbit appeared.

At this time, the panic among the elderly, women, and children was aroused by the old woman’s death, and one by one they stepped forward.

Those wielding guns clumsily took aim and emptied their clips.

One fast-shooting gun after another was discharged, a barrage of bullets fiercely covering the area.

The knife-wielders crouched slightly, holding their blades with the tips forward, ready to fight.

The Silver Line Moon Rabbit weaved left and right, breaking through the low-powered firepower web, charging at the crowd.

An eleven or twelve-year-old girl reacted the fastest, swinging her Battle Blade diagonally, aiming at the Moon Rabbit’s head.

With a loud clang, the attack landed.

The Silver Line Moon Rabbit’s body was too strong, and the girl’s slash was in vain.

The Battle Blade was deflected back, tearing the girl’s shoulder with its back.

But the charge of the Moon Rabbit was indeed slightly impeded, and taking this opportunity, various weapons hacked and slashed from all directions, momentarily trapping the Moon Rabbit in place.

Bang!

Another deafening explosion echoed in the underground hideout.

An old man, once a Scavenger and trained in firearms in his youth, fired the unlocked Scorpion Lion Heavy Sniper again.

The Silver Line Moon Rabbit was blown apart by a single shot!

The old man met the same fate as Yujin’s mother.

The elderly, women, and children wastelanders roared angrily, continuing to fiercely resist the incessant influx of Ruined Beasts from the doorway.

Though certain of death, the wastelanders chose to die standing.

Elsewhere, at the gate of the town hospital.

Shuying, heavily pregnant, wore ill-fitting combat gear, guarding the entrance to the town hospital like an iron wall.

Five minutes ago, she had emerged from the underground isolation room.

A multitude of guided explosives flew from her hands, hitting precisely the Level Three Ruined Beasts charging within the Beast Tide.

Beside Tang Shuying stood elite Scavengers ordered to protect the place, led by her former subordinate Chen Meng—the brawny Heavy Mecha Warrior.

Though Tang Shuying’s face had long become unfamiliar, Chen Meng still recognized her method of crafting bombs.

He instinctively shouted, "Captain!"

Tang Shuying glanced back at him but didn’t respond, just nodded subtly and continued to throw bombs outside.

Chen Meng glanced at Tang Shuying’s swollen belly, harboring a thousand doubts, but ultimately swallowing them all.

Four Level Four Ruined Beasts suddenly appeared ahead!

If these four Level Four Ruined Beasts reached the hospital walls, the walls would inevitably break!

Chen Meng roared, lifted his giant shield, and charged forward fiercely.

By now, Chen Meng himself was reaching his limit, his ammunition depleted, weary and battered, his body covered in wounds.
