A total of three supernova bombs were fired amidst the desperate roars of the pilot. Two were aimed at the feet of the rampaging zombies, while the other was aimed at Christina's earthen dragon. The remaining priests, however, were not at all relieved. Apart from Dream Xingchen who was faster, the other priests were all within the range of the supernova explosion. The three blooming semicircular spheres of light illuminated the dark land beneath the dark clouds, and before the zombies could even land, they were drawn into the rapidly spreading light. Although the thirty-meter-long earthen dragon was fast and skittered across the ground like a flying fish, it was no match for the speed of light. Under the light, layers of its outer skin crumbled and fell off, and even Christina's frantic extraction of soil from the ground to build mud walls could not block it at all.
Even Wan Qiang and Mai Mingyue had suffered from the supernova bomb, not to mention the fact that it could clear away all buildings and steel within its range. The layers of mud walls did not even have the time to turn into stone walls before they crumbled. The thirty-meter-long earthen dragon instantly lost over twenty meters in length, while the remaining ten meters that was less than six meters in width rapidly shrank into a sphere and hardened into a stone sphere. That was when Zhang Xiaoqiang jumped out of the earth sphere with the little loli in his arms and landed on the opposite side. Then, the light spread over but was blocked by the massive stone sphere.
The massive stone sphere shattered layer by layer in the light like a sand dune blown away by a gale. It crumbled into a pile of debris in a matter of seconds, and Zhang Xiaoqiang and the little loli took the opportunity to disappear into the crater behind the stone sphere. The stone fragments of the stone sphere vanished in the afterglow of the light, leaving a circular crater that looked like a meteorite crater on the ground. It was several meters deep and a thousand meters in diameter, and within the crater, one could vaguely see the foundation and steel that was cut by a laser. Apart from that, there was nothing else. Cleanliness and tidiness were the best words to describe the aftermath of the supernova bomb explosion.
At the edge of the explosion, Meng Xingchen was sitting on the ground. Her face was as white as a sheet of paper. There was a protrusion in the huge crater formed by the explosion. Clearly, she had not completely escaped from the explosion. She had only survived because she had used an unknown ability to form a black hole and absorb all the light that had scattered towards her. Even though the shockwave of the explosion had been weakened countless times due to the distance, she had still paid an unprecedented price. Be it from her face or her feeble appearance, it could be seen that she had paid an unprecedented price.
As for the bunker that Tiel and Asacte had painstakingly built, it was long gone. Only the residue of melted steel remained on the ground. Previously, the two of them had tacitly come together and used their strength to build a bunker together. Their method of building a bunker had worked wonders. A layer of ice wall and a layer of steel had created a fortification that could withstand large-caliber warship cannons. Although a part of the ground had been destroyed, it had protected the underground, leaving an area of about two meters in the middle of the huge depression. It was obvious that they would be fine.
Hardman, the coward, made the right choice. He rushed into the crater where Christina extracted her earth dragon and accidentally entered New Era's underground base. At least he could find his final hiding spot in one of the tunnels that appeared in the crater. Christina, on the other hand, was killed by Lei Feng. Zhang Xiaoqiang used her earth dragon to escape and jumped out of the rock ball to block the shockwave of the explosion. At least the ground behind the rock ball was not blown away like the other places. As for Christina, he did not care.
The most pitiful one was the zombie. This disgusting kangaroo-like zombie that was eight to nine meters tall suffered a fatal blow from the supernova explosion. Two-thirds of its body was vaporized, and only the middle part of its body fell to the ground like rotten meat. The Shark Hunting Helicopter in the air was still not under the control of the pilot, and it was cruising in the sky like a bird. Only the pilot could be heard crying and shouting, "It's not me, it's not me, I don't have the Supernova authorization code, I can't open the weapon port of the Supernova …"
No one responded to the pilot's explanation. The scene after the explosion had shocked everyone. What was even more frightening was that the standard configuration of the Shark Hunter Chopper was two supernovas. Just now, each chopper had only fired one, and the remaining one was still waiting in the launch port. At this time, the zombie's body suddenly moved, or rather, exploded. Only its lower abdomen was left, and it suddenly exploded into countless pieces. Three black figures that looked like macaque monkeys smashed through the scattered remains of the zombies and ran in three different directions. The moment the zombies appeared, the three supernovas were like venomous snakes hunting for prey. The moment the zombies appeared, the three supernovas were launched like venomous snakes. In the blink of an eye, they had already reached a distance of a kilometer, reaching a speed of a hundred meters per 200 seconds.
Although the speed wasn't slow, and the shockwave was even more violent and wild, it was still a lot slower for the zombies. One of the three zombies had already rushed into the valley, and the other two had already hit the mountain walls on both sides. This small difference caused the two zombies that were climbing to the mountain wall to be caught in the wild shockwave and shattered. The shockwave of the explosion also shook the valley. Large chunks of rocks that had gone through many years of wind, frost, and rain fell off the mountain wall. Layers of the mountain wall collapsed under the light, and countless dust covered the entire valley. The three helicopters were still chasing the zombies neatly towards the entrance of the valley. Although the speed wasn't slow, and the shockwave was even more violent and wild, it was still a lot slower for the zombies. One of the three zombies had already rushed into the valley, and the other two had already hit the mountain walls on both sides.
Before the helicopters reached the valley entrance, the commanders of New Era finally reacted. A series of anti-air missile launchers and short-range laser defense systems rose from the top of the mountain on both sides. The next moment, dozens of anti-air missiles and more than ten dazzling lasers shrouded the three Shark Hunting Helicopters. In the desperate wails of the pilots, the three most advanced Shark Hunting Helicopters turned into three huge fireballs and exploded. The scattered wreckage fell to the ground and ignited the fire, rising black smoke, and this unknown attack came to an end. The research institute on the ground had basically been destroyed, but the battle had not stopped.
The research institute on the ground had basically been destroyed, but the battle had not stopped. The remaining elite soldiers and bloodbath warriors were attacking the semi-puppet warriors in the warehouse under the command of the officers. Gunshots and wails could be faintly heard. The tragic scene after the supernova explosion was completely presented in front of everyone. No one cared, and no one was willing to search for those reckless divine warriors. The entire research institute was out of control. Other than launching anti-air missiles and lasers to destroy their own helicopters, there was nothing else they could do. At this time, all the helicopters hovering in the sky had landed one after another. Only a few light reconnaissance planes were still in the sky. No one knew if the remaining Shark Hunters would be controlled. At least before the supernova explosion was defused, New Era would not let any of the Shark Hunters take off.
While the survivors of the research institute were busy in a chaotic and disorderly manner, a disarmed Kite Hawk airship flew above the research institute and landed on the flat ground after the supernova explosion. Leger was the first to jump out of the airship. When his luxurious leather shoes stepped on the glass-like smooth ground, he could feel the heat from the ground burning his soles. However, he ignored it and walked towards the commander of the base, the knight who had not done anything during the chaotic battle.
Knight Assad was originally a Three-leaf officer in the headquarters. He was not considered much in the headquarters, but Australia already had the right to lead its own army. This man who graduated from the Art Department of Berlin University did not have the talent to command, and everyone knew this. However, he had a beautiful sister, a beauty with a noble temperament and a gorgeous face. Kluge had a strong desire for all beautiful things, so Assad's sister became Kluge's exclusive property. However, his sister was very smart and knew how to maintain Kluge's love and freshness. Her understanding of art also made Kluge look up to her, and she became the person in charge of the laboratory through nepotism.
Assad, who was in his early thirties, had an unrealistic and grandiose temperament. This temperament was not liked by the strict Germans, but he had a good grasp of the human heart, and his understanding of conspiracies and politics surpassed those traditional Germans who had a one-track mind. Therefore, his greatest strength was in coordinating interpersonal relationships and firmly grasping power. However, he did not have the corresponding professional skills and talents. If nothing happened, it would be fine. At least he could maintain the status quo and not make any progress. But if something happened, it would be a mess.
When Assad saw Legere, he nodded arrogantly as a greeting. He knew Legere's position in Kluge's heart, so he did not act too friendly. However, his cold pretense was washed away by the anxiety in his eyes. It was clear that he knew the responsibility he would have to bear. Legere glanced at Assad, but did not say anything. Instead, it was Kluge, who was behind him, who said to Assad, "Everything that happened here will be reported to the European headquarters. We are not here to take over command. Don't worry about that. However, if your brain isn't damaged, I believe there won't be an idiot who will take over your position at this time …"
Kluge's venomous tongue instantly destroyed Assad's pretense. He could not help but reveal a pleading expression as he said to Legere, "I acted according to the emergency manual, and I don't have the authority to command the Great Priest, so …"
"Hmph …" Legere snorted coldly, but did not continue speaking. He strode past Assad and headed towards the warehouse. However, Kluge appropriately added, "You don't have to explain anything to us, and you don't have to push the blame onto the Great Priest. I think that even if your background is strong enough, it won't be stronger than the Great Priest. What you have to worry about is how to write the incident report. At the very least, you have to find a suitable person to be the scapegoat. Of course, don't push the blame onto us. If you don't have amnesia, you should remember who rejected our operation plan and insisted on personally planning Decars' capture …"
Assad's face turned completely pale. He couldn't help but take a few steps back as he looked at Kluge's trembling lips. Kluge's words were clearly telling him that all of this would be blamed on him. No one could replace his position as the scapegoat, and he brought all of this upon himself. He couldn't help but think back to a few days ago when Legere suggested to him to retreat to the city and hand over all his authority. He originally thought that Legere was trying to seize power, but he didn't expect things to develop to the worst state.
Kluge, who was in front of him, had a strange expression on his face. Although he had decided to make Assad the scapegoat this time, he couldn't escape responsibility either. Kluge wasn't someone who was clear about rewards and punishments. He was someone who only cared about the results and didn't care about the process. His position in the new era was already in jeopardy. If Kluge used this as an excuse to vent his anger, wouldn't he never have a chance to take revenge?
