Chapter 70 You all deserve to die!
Chapter 70 You all deserve to die!
Inside the residential community.
The flames of war have completely engulfed Dawn City.
The pungent smoke mixed with the heavy smell of blood rose up under the scorching sun.
At the breach in the wall lay the corpses of humans, native slaves, and Behemoths.
Blood seeped into the soil, turning into dark brown mottled patches as it dried.
The once intact green belts and roads are now riddled with potholes.
The defensive line formed by the evolved beings was like a small boat in a raging storm, teetering on the brink of collapse under the onslaught of the black Behemoth tide, constantly being torn open.
"Block it! Hold on!"
Wang Hao's throat was already hoarse as he swung an axe, striking the claws of a Black Iron Behemoth.
With a "thud," his hand split open, and the axe flew out of his grasp.
An evolved human immediately stepped in, thrusting a spear at the Behemoth's eye, but was pounced on from the side by another Behemoth. With a scream of pain, half of his body was torn apart by its claws.
Li Wen was covered in blood, and his left arm hung limply, clearly broken.
He wielded the axe in one hand and slashed wildly, wounding the front leg of a Black Iron Behemoth that charged at him. With a "bang," he was then sent flying by the Behemoth's furious charge, crashing heavily into the wall and coughing up blood.
"Vice Captain!" Niu Dazhuang shouted. He tried to run over, but was held back by a local soldier.
Niu Dazhuang's mantis arm was covered with cracks and bloody wounds, and the pale green muscles were torn in many places, revealing the blurry flesh underneath.
His speed decreased significantly, and he could only struggle to keep up with Zhang Jinfeng back to back.
Zhang Jinfeng's mutated leg muscles were twitching, and each push brought a tearing pain. His attacks could no longer cause fatal damage to the thick-skinned Black Iron Behemoth; he could only barely restrain it.
The resistance from ordinary residents was even weaker.
They fought with homemade spears, kitchen knives, and even sharpened sticks, but fell like straws under the claws of the Behemoth and the swords of the native warriors.
Cries, screams, the dull thuds of weapons piercing flesh, and Behemoth's excited roars intertwined to create a desperate symphony of death.
Even more despairing were those six silver behemoths.
Their three-meter-tall bodies made them appear like death itself, strolling leisurely across the battlefield.
Its silvery-white fur reflected a cool light in the sunlight, and it was almost completely free of dust.
Instead of engaging in the frontline melee, they roamed the flanks or rear of the battlefield, their cold, silver eyes scanning the area, searching for more valuable "fun" or "trouble" that needed to be eliminated.
They would occasionally swing their claws casually, and several evolved beings or ordinary residents would be sent flying and torn apart like rags.

Occasionally, it would unleash a silver sonic wave that could easily stun a group of people, who would then be harvested by the Black Iron Behemoth or the native warriors following closely behind.
Despair, like the deepest sea, engulfs everyone who is still resisting.
The disparity in strength was too great; it was a one-sided massacre!
High above the ruins, Zhang Xiaonan's face was ashen, her body swaying precariously, as if a gust of wind could knock her over.
She raised her hands slightly, her fingertips trembling and spasming from excessive force, and thin lines of blood kept seeping from her nostrils, the corners of her eyes, and her ears, which looked shocking against her pale skin.
She gritted her teeth and exerted all her mental power.
Sometimes it acts as an invisible force field wall, slightly hindering the Black Iron Behemoth's charge and giving its companions a chance to catch their breath or counterattack.
Sometimes it manipulates shards of rock and iron to attack Behemoth's eyes or wounds.
Her power had only just awakened, and after being overdrawn yesterday, she was now at her limit.
Every time he used his ability, it felt like his brain was being scraped by a dull knife, bringing waves of dizziness and excruciating pain.
"Hang in there."
Her gaze swept across the horrific battlefield, seeing Li Wen cough up blood and collapse to the ground, Niu Dazhuang and Zhang Jinfeng trapped in an encirclement, and Wang Hao being supported by someone while still hoarsely giving orders.
And then there are those familiar or unfamiliar faces that keep falling down.
A sense of powerlessness and anger burned in her heart, and the exhaustion of her mental energy made her vision go black in waves.
Just then, the six silver behemoths seemed to get a little bored with the monotonous killing on the front lines.
Their gazes were all fixed on the high-rise residential buildings inside the community.
In particular, one of the buildings, which was over thirty stories high, had its exterior walls smashed by Li Hao, and most of the windows were shattered.
From the balconies and windows, one could vaguely see some elderly, weak, women and children who were unable to fight hiding on the upper floors, looking down at the hellish scene below in terror.
A silver Behemoth grinned, revealing its stark white fangs, and let out a low growl that sounded like mockery.
It raised its silvery-white claws and pointed at the tall building.
The other five silver behemoths understood, and a cruel glint flashed in their eyes.
They stopped strolling and instead exerted their strength simultaneously, like six silver lightning bolts, instantly rushing to the foot of that tall building!
"What are they trying to do!" Wang Hao felt a sense of foreboding upon seeing this scene.
The next second, his premonition came true.
Six silver behemoths circled the base of the building, wielding their claws powerful enough to split rocks and smash the building's load-bearing columns and key walls!
"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!"
A series of loud explosions followed!
Reinforced concrete is incredibly fragile in the face of absolute force!
Smoke and dust billowed into the sky, and the entire thirty-plus-story building emitted a tooth-grinding, enormous groan and cracking sound!
"The building is going to collapse!"
"Run! There are still people upstairs!"
Screams echoed from inside the building and from all parts of the battlefield.
But it was too late!
Under the gaze of countless terrified and desperate eyes, the tall building, like a giant with its bones removed, began to twist and tilt from the middle, and then collapsed with a roar towards the interior of the community!
"Help!" A figure inside the high-rise building cried out for help.
His body swayed.
Some people clung tightly to the balcony, only able to watch helplessly as they plummeted downwards along with the building.
"No!!!" Wang Hao's eyes widened.
The building slowly collapsed, and at least dozens of figures were thrown out from different floors as the building crumbled.
They screamed as they plummeted from a height of tens of meters!
One of the figures, wearing a striking floral nightgown, was Zhao Meng's wife!
After yesterday's battle, Zhao Meng forced her to stay and rest on a relatively safe upper floor of this building.
"Ah!! Honey!!"
She saw that familiar figure on the battlefield below and let out a desperate, heart-wrenching cry.
The voice was filled with endless fear and a deep longing for life.
In one corner of the battlefield, Zhao Meng, who had just repelled a Black Iron Behemoth with an electric arc, suddenly turned around.
Time seemed to stretch out infinitely and freeze at this moment.
He saw the familiar building collapse in the smoke and dust.
He saw dozens of black dots falling helplessly from the sky.
He saw the woman in the floral pajamas, the most important woman in his life, falling rapidly toward the hard, cold ground like a butterfly with broken wings.
He saw the extreme terror on her face and heard her heart-wrenching cries of "Husband!"
A chill instantly shot from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, freezing his blood, choking his breath, and then transforming into excruciating pain and panic that could destroy the world!
"Wife!!!"
Zhao Meng let out a roar that was not human, but like that of a wounded beast!
His eyes instantly became bloodshot and red, almost bursting out of their sockets!
His eyes widened, and he rushed over frantically.
His figure shot forward at breakneck speed.
However, it was still too late; it was too far away.
Falling down will definitely kill you!
Do not!
Zhao Meng watched helplessly as his wife fell from dozens of stories high, about to hit the ground.
I can't accept this outcome.
Watching helplessly as the person you love most is about to be smashed to pieces before your eyes, and you are powerless to stop it...
This extreme pain, despair, and anger, like the most violent dynamite, exploded in his heart and deep in his soul!
"No!!!!"
Amidst his roar, a sudden change occurred!
The tiny arcs of electricity around Zhao Meng's body, which had been dimmed due to excessive consumption, suddenly became incredibly bright and thick!
The crackling and popping sounds continued one after another!
His hair stood on end, and his eyes, no longer bloodshot, now blazed with tangible, white lightning!
A violent, domineering, and destructive energy erupted from the depths of every cell in his body!
That was not a simple electric current, but a more concentrated and advanced form of lightning power!
The ground beneath his feet was cracked and charred!
The surrounding air was ionized, emitting an ozone-like smell!
Zhao Meng undergoes a second evolution amidst desperate circumstances and extreme rage!
He was enveloped in arcs of electricity, and his body suddenly flew up, hurtling towards his wife at lightning speed.
Like a white torrent sweeping across the sky.
However, it was still too late.
His wife's figure was less than five meters above the ground.
Too late!
Below was a hard concrete floor and a pile of rubble; falling down there would be certain death!
Do not! !
Zhao Meng was heartbroken.
His heart stopped for a moment.
At the critical moment!
"Stop...stop it...stop it!!!"
A faint yet extremely stubborn female voice, trembling and cracking, came from high above the ruins!
It's Zhang Xiaonan!
Her face, bleeding from all seven orifices, was almost ferocious. With the last bit of her conscious will and the little mental strength she had left, she stretched out her hands towards the people falling from the sky!
The power of thought stays in the air!
A powerful but extremely unstable invisible force field, like a giant hand, suddenly caught the dozens of rapidly falling figures!
The downward momentum suddenly stopped!
Zhang Xiaonan's body swayed violently, and she spat out a small mouthful of blood. Her vision went completely black, and she slumped backward, only to be caught by Su Tiantian with all her might.
She was completely exhausted and fell into a coma.
The force field that was suspended in the air also began to fluctuate violently and dissipate, and it looked like it was about to collapse!
The people who had fallen began to fall again, but at a much slower pace.
But it was those crucial two or three seconds that were gained!
A figure enveloped in blazing white lightning, like a real lightning bolt, tore through the air and traversed dozens of meters at a speed that was impossible for the naked eye to perceive, instantly appearing below the falling crowd!
It was Zhao Meng who had rushed over!
He hovered in mid-air, surrounded by raging lightning snakes, his eyes blazing with electricity, like a descending thunder god!
He reached out and gently caught his wife, who had fainted from fright.
He held her tightly, very tightly in his arms, feeling her warm body and her faint but still present heartbeat.
A tear slid down Zhao Meng's cheek.
Almost.
It was so close.
He clenched his fists, his whole body trembling.
My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, suddenly felt half of itself fall back into place.
The other half, however, was replaced by overwhelming fear and an even more surging, murderous rage!
With his other hand, he lifted the air, and a gentle force of lightning, like a net, caught the remaining dozens of survivors who were still in shock and thought they were doomed, and gently lowered them to the relatively safe ground nearby.
It was only at this moment that almost everyone on the battlefield, including the Behemoths, reacted to this sudden and dramatic change.
Countless gazes were focused in shock on the man who was suspended in mid-air, holding his wife, and whose body was wrapped in destructive lightning!
Zhao Meng slowly raised his head, his crimson and white electric eyes, like the gaze of death, locked onto the six silver Behemoths.
His voice, low and hoarse with extreme anger, resounded across the battlefield with a thunderous tremor.
"You all deserve to die!"
