Chapter 368 The Harvest Time Has Arrived
The Secretary of Defense analyzed the situation seriously: "Even though the Dragon Kingdom's technological strength is quite terrifying, looking at the current severe situation, the Dragon Kingdom is indeed in imminent danger."
"They not only have to deal with the monsters appearing within their country, but they also have to find a way to counter the monsters surging from the White Elephant. Moreover, those monsters will continue to become even more terrifying by devouring humans. God knows what kind of terrifying monsters will be born in the White Elephant if things are left unchecked."
"Judging by this, I am afraid we humans are truly doomed; there is simply no way out!"
As everyone listened to his analysis, they cast their gazes back onto the satellite map!
Their eyes were filled with despair. Originally, after hearing President Biden's words, they had managed to place their hope for the future on the Dragon Kingdom. However, the Dragon Kingdom had not treated this crisis with the seriousness and earnestness they had expected, which chilled their hearts.
They all knew the principle that "arrogant troops will be defeated." In their view, with the Dragon Kingdom behaving like this, its future was certainly looking grim!
And the future of humanity would also be completely plunged into darkness.
The Secretary of Defense stared fixedly at the surging tide of monsters on the satellite map, his brows furrowed tightly, his expression tense to the extreme.
The first batch of monsters had gradually approached the Dragon Kingdom's border. Everywhere they passed was a complete mess; the small countries they passed through were simply unable to resist and all fell!
These fallen small countries naturally transformed into a part of the monsters attacking the Dragon Kingdom, causing the number of monsters to become increasingly massive.
The original number of the first batch of monsters was already very large. After this journey of "devouring and growing," the number was now terrifying. Looking from afar on the satellite map, it was densely packed with monsters of various shapes, all hideous and terrifying.
The satellite map zoomed in further, and everyone gasped. They saw that there was no shortage of monsters with exceptionally powerful physiques among them!
They were as tall as dozens of stories, their bodies covered in human remains that they had devoured but had not yet digested. Blood and flesh dripped down continuously. The scene looked exceptionally disgusting, making one want to retch at a single glance.
Seeing such a hair-raising scene, everyone felt a chill in their hearts, and a deep sense of powerlessness welled up.
President Biden asked the Secretary of Defense with a trembling voice: "If it were us facing so many monsters, what are the odds of winning?"
The Secretary of Defense did not hesitate and blurted out: "Zero!"
"The number of these monsters is simply too large. They are advancing comprehensively around the border, and the front line is stretched very long. As long as one place cannot be held, it will inevitably lead to a total collapse. It is simply impossible to guard against!"
"Moreover, according to our observations, these monsters, especially those large ones, can also launch their own flesh. As long as a person is touched by even a little bit, they will be assimilated into a monster. By then, the number of their army will only grow more and more. I am afraid the Dragon Kingdom's army will be in internal chaos before they even start fighting."
After listening to this analysis by the Secretary of Defense, the last remaining glint of light in the eyes of everyone present completely disappeared. They were all like frost-bitten eggplants, dejected and filled with despair.
President Biden understood that there was indeed no need to keep watching. The destruction of the Dragon Kingdom now seemed to be just a matter of time, and once the Dragon Kingdom was truly destroyed, then the future of the Blue Planet...
No, the Blue Planet would have no future to speak of, let alone any hope. Once hope was gone, everyone would truly be completely finished.
In his view, as long as he did not see the Dragon Kingdom's destruction with his own eyes, it seemed he could still hold onto a glimmer of hope in his heart, as if he could hold on for a little longer.
So, he spoke: "Turn the satellite away; point it toward our country. Stop watching, there is nothing left to see."
Hearing this, everyone sighed silently, feeling indescribably miserable.
The Secretary of State, however, was still unwilling to give up. His eyes remained fixed on the monster tide that was about to reach the Dragon Kingdom's border, and he said with an unwilling face: "Is the Dragon Kingdom really going to let these monsters rush into their border and just ignore them?"
"Could it be... could it be that the Dragon Kingdom has already been captured!"
As soon as he said this, everyone suddenly realized, as if they had been awakened, and said one after another: "That is right! Logically speaking, the monsters are already at the border. Even if they are no match, they should at least try to defend, right? But what is going on now? The monsters are almost at their doorstep, and they still have not made a move???"
"Are they truly not anxious... or are they simply unable to make a move!!!!"
President Biden widened his eyes, gasped, and shouted: "Could it be that the Dragon Kingdom has already perished!"
But just as he said this, suddenly, a strange scene appeared in the sky!
A "meteorite" shot out from the thick black fog at extreme speed. It was incredibly fast, crossing the sky in the blink of an eye, and its body was wrapped in a ball of dazzling firelight. The momentum looked quite astonishing.
Everyone subconsciously thought it was a meteorite about to fall, but they soon realized what it was.
"No! That is not a meteorite!"
"It is... it is the shell from the Dragon Kingdom's Electromagnetic Naval Gun, which is comparable to Nuclear Weapons!!!!"
"The Dragon Kingdom... has finally made a move!!!!"
The suddenly launched shell, like a demon breaking free from shackles, pierced straight into the sky with a sharp whistling sound.
It dragged a bright trail of flame behind it, like a scorching chain of light tearing the sky apart, carving a striking mark in the deep blue curtain of the sky.
As it ascended, it churned the air into vortices, broke the sound barrier with a muffled boom, causing the earth to tremble and living creatures to panic.
It hovered briefly at its apex, and after being shrouded in radiance, it dove rapidly, rushing toward its target while carrying the aura of death.
The remaining trajectory in the sky was like a hideous scar, long engraving its short and shocking flight path.
And following the launch of this shell, immediately after, over the Dragon Kingdom's territory—which was originally impossible to reconnoiter by satellite and was like a fog—a second, third, fourth shell...
Dozens of shells were launched one after another!
Dragging blinding tails of light behind them, they were just like countless silver snakes dancing wildly in the clear daytime sky, crisscrossing and cutting the azure sky into pieces.
Wherever they passed, the air was violently torn, forming circles of transparent ripples. The sound barriers were broken one by one, and the explosions merged into one, as if thunder in a clear sky.
The interwoven trajectories across the sky formed an extremely shocking spectacle of war, chilling and unforgettable!
Moreover, the power of a single Electromagnetic Naval Gun shell was comparable to Nuclear Weapons, not to mention that dozens of shells were launched at once; the combined power was simply unimaginable.
The landing points of these shells were clearly calculated with precision, perfectly covering the monster horde numbering in the hundreds of millions that were approaching the Dragon Kingdom's border within the attack range.
As the shells fell one after another, that terrifying moment of harvesting arrived.
