160: Completely out of control!
On a mountain road.
A long convoy of military vehicles was speeding along.
Ordinary Japanese devils on the road watched with curiosity.
"What happened? So many troops dispatched?"
"Our island has been quite quiet recently! We haven't provoked anyone!"
"Could it be that Great Xia Country is looking for trouble with us again?"
"β¦"
Many Japanese devils speculated.
They still didn't know what had happened.
However, they would soon find out.
On the other side.
Yamamoto Taro sat in the command center, his eyes filled with anxiety.
"How much longer until the troops reach the base perimeter?"
"Report! Half an hour at most!"
"Another half an hour?" Yamamoto Taro was a little displeased. "Tell them to speed up and try to arrive in 20 minutes!"
"Understood!"
After receiving the order, the frontline troops began to accelerate madly.
20 minutes later.
They finally arrived 5 kilometers outside the base.
"Reporting to headquarters, we have reached the perimeter..."
The frontline commander was still reporting.
Suddenly!
"Bang!"
A loud noise came from the rear of the convoy.
The frontline commander sharply turned his head.
In the rearview mirror, the window of the last military vehicle suddenly shattered.
A blood-covered monster was outside the car, biting a soldier's neck frantically... "baka! What is that?!"
The frontline commander was terrified.
At the same time!
More Biochemical Monsters rushed out from the roadside woods.
Attacking the Japanese devils' army.
Seeing this, the soldiers immediately opened fire in retaliation.
"Da da da!"
But the bullets did not inflict any damage on the Biochemical Monsters.
This scene completely panicked the Little Devil soldiers.
"baka! Bullets are useless against them!"
"Run, these monsters can't be killed..."
"Ah... my leg! Save me!"
Screams, gunshots, and monster roars mingled together.
The frontline commander pushed open the car door, drew his pistol, and rushed to the rear.
On the road, chaos had erupted.
Three Biochemical Monsters were tearing at soldiers.
Their skin was bluish-black, muscles bulging, and eyes blood-red.
The soldiers' rifle bullets left only white marks on their bodies, unable to penetrate at all!
"Concentrate fire on the head!"
The Captain roared, raising his gun to aim at the monster's head.
"Bang bang bang!"
Three bullets hit in quick succession.
The monster's head swayed, but instead of falling, it became even more violent.
It lunged at the nearby Captain, biting off his throat with one snap.
Blood splattered on the frontline commander's face.
He felt cold all over, his hands trembling.
This was not something humans could fight against!
"Retreat! Quickly retreat behind the armored vehicles!"
The frontline commander roared, turning to run towards the command vehicle.
However, the Biochemical Monsters were extremely fast, catching up to the fleeing soldiers in a few seconds.
Screams rang out continuously.
The frontline commander hid behind an armored vehicle, his face pale.
"Quick! Use rocket launchers!"
The soldiers awoke from their stupor and quickly shouldered their rocket launchers.
"Aim! Fire!"
"Boom!"
A rocket, trailing flames, struck a monster.
An explosion sounded, and the monster's body was blown to pieces.
"It's effective!"
Hope instantly ignited among the survivors.
But the next second, more monsters rushed out from the woods.
A full thousand of them!
Behind them, a pack of mutated wild dogs and wild boars followed.
The wild dogs were twice the size of normal ones, with teeth as sharp as knives.
The wild boars had skin as hard as iron, and their tusks were still adorned with shredded flesh.
"How can there be so many..."
The frontline commander completely panicked.
They didn't have many rocket launchers.
Half of them had already been used in the previous volley.
They couldn't possibly stop so many monsters!
Thinking of this, the frontline commander immediately reported to Yamamoto Taro:
"General, this is bad..."
"The source of infection is out of control. The infected have turned into monsters. Bullets are useless against them. Requesting heavy firepower support..."
Before he could finish speaking, the armored vehicle where the frontline commander was located was overturned by a Biochemical Monster.
"Damn it..."
The frontline commander was thrown around inside the armored vehicle, dizzy... Meanwhile, outside.
The Little Devil soldiers, seeing no escape, fell into complete despair.
Watching the Biochemical Monsters getting closer.
Their roars seemed to be right by their ears.
"Let's fight!"
The Little Devil soldiers picked up their bayonets and charged at the monsters.
But as soon as they charged out, they were tackled by a mutated wild dog and instantly bitten on the neck.
As more and more people were bitten.
The army of Biochemical Monsters was also growing rapidly!
...At the same time.
In the command center, Yamamoto Taro's face changed dramatically upon hearing the various screams over the phone.
"Damn it!"
"The interception failed."
"Quick, send rocket launcher troops to support!"
"Yes, General!"
After giving the orders, Yamamoto Taro knew the situation was out of control.
He hurried to report to Kishida Jiro.
Prime Ministers Office.
Kishida Jiro sat in his office, pacing anxiously.
"We must seal it off!"
"We must!"
Just then.
"Bang!"
The office door was suddenly pushed open.
Yamamoto Taro rushed in, his face full of panic.
"Prime Minister... this is bad... something has happened!"
Seeing his appearance, Kishida Jiro's heart sank.
"What's wrong? What happened to the troops?"
Yamamoto Taro collapsed onto the floor, panting heavily, his voice choked with tears:
"Monsters... so many monsters... our soldiers can't stop them! Bullets can't penetrate their skin, and rocket launchers can only kill a few..."
"Now they have broken through the blockade and are heading towards the surrounding towns!"
"What?!"
Kishida Jiro's face instantly turned pale.
He staggered back a step, bumping into the desk.
"What did you say? They broke through the blockade? How is that possible!"
Kishida Jiro rushed over, grabbed Yamamoto Taro by the collar, and roared:
"I sent a regiment of troops! And armored vehicles! You're telling me you can't stop a group of monsters?!"
Yamamoto Taro gasped, choked by his grip, tears streaming down his face:
"Prime Minister... those are not ordinary monsters at all!"
"They are invulnerable, incredibly strong, and they can infect others..."
"Our regiment has very few people left!"
"And... and the surrounding villages have been attacked... everyone in the entire village has turned into monsters!"
"Boom!"
These words struck Kishida Jiro like a bolt from the blue.
He abruptly let go, stumbled back a few steps, and collapsed into his chair.
The entire village... turned into monsters?
Doesn't that mean the t-virus has spread?
"It's over... it's all over..."
Kishida Jiro murmured, his eyes vacant.
He had harbored fantasies before, thinking that as long as the mountains were sealed off, the situation could be controlled.
But now, it seemed he had been too naive.
The spread of the t-virus was much faster than he had imagined.
"Prime Minister... what should we do now?" Yamamoto Taro asked, trembling.
Kishida Jiro suddenly looked up, his eyes bloodshot.
He suddenly thought of a solution.
"Incinerate!"
"Yes! Use fire!"
"Since bullets can't penetrate them, fire must surely burn them to death!"
Kishida Jiro's voice became frantic:
"Immediately order the Air Force to dispatch bombers!"
"Conduct carpet bombing around the mountainous areas!"
"Also, tell the garrisons in all towns to prepare flamethrowers! As soon as they see monsters, burn them with fire!"
"No matter the cost, we must eliminate them outside the towns!"
Yamamoto Taro was stunned when he heard this.
Carpet bombing?
What about the residents of the surrounding towns?
And those who haven't been infected yet... "Prime Minister... wouldn't this..."
"There's no 'wouldn't this'!" Kishida Jiro interrupted him, roaring, "There's no time to think that much now!"
"If we don't do this, the entire Sakura Country will be infected! By then, everyone will turn into monsters!"
"Go and execute the order now! If we're a step late, both you and I will die!"
Yamamoto Taro looked at Kishida Jiro's frantic eyes and dared not refute him further.
He struggled to stand up and staggered out of the office.
In the office.
Kishida Jiro sat in his chair, his hands clutching his head.
His body was still trembling.
He didn't know if this decision of his could save Sakura Country.
He only knew that this was the only solution he could think of right now... However.
What Kishida Jiro didn't know was.
At this moment.
The Biochemical Monster horde had already grown to several thousand.
They split into several groups, rushing towards different towns.
One of these groups had already arrived at Qingshui Town, the closest town to the mountains.
In Qingshui Town.
The residents were still unaware of the approaching danger.
Children played in the streets, vendors hawked their wares, and everything seemed so peaceful.
Suddenly.
"Ah! Monsters!"
A scream shattered the peace.
A woman pointed at the town entrance, her face pale.
A group of Biochemical Monsters was rushing into the town.
Their speed was extremely fast, and they instantly surged into the streets.
"Run!"
The residents reacted, scattering and fleeing.
But their speed was no match for the monsters.
The Biochemical Monsters rushed into the crowd, beginning to bite frantically.
Screams and cries echoed throughout the small town.
A Public Security Officer raised his gun and fired, but the bullets were useless against the monsters.
The monster turned and bit off his neck with one snap.
Blood stained the streets.
More and more residents were infected, turning into new monsters.
The monster horde continued to grow.
They surged like a tide towards the depths of the town...
