Chapter 300 70: Nuclear Explosion on the Homeland
When Carlos tore the ghost general in his mouth into pieces, it also announced the destruction of all the ghost generals.
The ghost army seemed to have completely lost control, and they all madly charged towards the living beings nearby.
And most importantly, these ghost soldiers can finally see the end and are no longer a dark mass.
This is an excitement for everyone.
The second line of defense has been held.
But many people also know that the real crisis has just begun.
The appetizers were almost too much for them to handle, so how horrible would the main course be?
The heavy rain that had been pouring down half an hour ago gradually turned into sporadic drizzle, dripping on the face of the last fallen ghost soldier.
The bloody water that flooded the streets and alleys rushed towards the sea, forming a bloody waterfall in the cracks of the coastal embankments. The fish that had not died too many times in the recent naval melee could not bear it anymore and began to float up in groups with their bellies turned up.
"I didn't think it through. Don't act rashly. I will find a way." After hearing the news from Guan Junyan that Kasahara was kidnapped, Noguchi Takeshi could only give some words of comfort.
In fact, he had guessed it before it started and reminded Guan Junyan's team of it.
However, facing such a chaotic battle situation and the opponent being well prepared, it was not unbelievable that they were defeated. There was no way to put the blame on Guan Junyan.
After all, it was a battle between life and death, and the slightest mistake would result in death.
Originally, Noguchi had considered arranging Kasahara alone in the Hananishiki Hotel, but Kasahara refused, saying that she could not bear to see her comrades fighting while she hid aside.
In addition, since they were indeed lacking in combat power and Kasahara and Seki Toshihiko had honed their teamwork very well, he agreed.
"The battle is far from over. Hurry, take this opportunity to recover your strength. Behind us are tens of millions of Tokyo residents."
"I, I understand."
Guan Junyan lowered his head, holding the golden-mouthed jade toad in his arms, thinking about the scenes that he and Kasahara had experienced.
He even thought about the situation Kasahara might face after being caught, and couldn't help but clench his fists and bite his lips.
"Captain, I'm sorry. I... Sister Kasahara..." Ning Jinhu, who was sitting dejectedly on the side, saw Guan Junyan coming back and quickly stood up. However, he was too ashamed to face him, so he could only lower his head and speak intermittently.
"It's not your fault. Go and rest. It may be a tough battle later."
Guan Junyan forced a smile and gently patted Jin Hu Ning's shoulder.
"Yes, if the captain has any plans, don't hide them from me. I can do my part." Jin Hu Ning held the [Pure] sword that he always carried with him with both hands.
Now she regrets it. If she had known earlier, she would have taken the risk and used the knife.
Guan Junyan didn't say anything, but just hobbled to the boys' bathroom, ready to wash off the filth on his body and relieve his fatigue.
"Have the casualties been counted?"
Takeshi Noguchi looked at the blood-stained and devastated land, unable to tell which blood was from his companions and which was from rain.
Chiharu Tashiro, whose arm was broken, looked at the rough statistics in her hand, and the paper was shaking slightly.
"The dead were basically all infected. We couldn't keep any bodies. We could only count the number of people based on the time we just reorganized the team. Twenty-three Moon Initiators were killed, all of them were injured. The Extraordinary Countermeasures Team was almost wiped out, with five survivors. We don't have detailed data on the Self-Defense Force, but we roughly estimate that half of them were killed."
"In other words, we are actually on the verge of collapse?" Noguchi Takeshi slowly exhaled, "I didn't expect that the Self-Defense Forces could not collapse even when communications were cut off and more than half of them were killed or wounded. I have a new respect for them."
Chiharu Tashiro's face was pale from excessive blood loss: "This is probably their last bit of resilience. After all, we are now standing on our capital."
"Oh, the capital is where the Emperor is. After this chaos, I'm afraid that guy will never dare to return to Tokyo, and Tokyo may not be able to continue to serve as the capital."
Noguchi looked at Tashiro's broken arm.
"The road to the rear is barely passable here. Do we really not need to go outside the defense line to receive treatment?"
"I am aware of my physical condition. Even if I can't fight, I can still assist you with some statistics and arrangements." Tian Dai shook his head and refused.
As he spoke, Abdul emerged from the ground.
"I've observed the Summoning Society. Once you get close, you'll be shrouded in blood mist and lose your sense of direction. It's a little better underground, but I almost didn't make it back. Now the entire Summoning Society gives me a feeling like..."
Abdulka could not utter the word.
"An egg, or a cocoon?" Noguchi added.
"It's a cocoon. Deep underground, it seems to be continuously transmitting evil thoughts. It's so terrifying that if you just touch it, you'll probably go crazy." Abdul looked frightened.
Tashiro thought thoughtfully: "Isn't this a malicious bomb? It accumulates malicious thoughts, and then explodes, setting Tokyo on fire."
"Probably not. These evil thoughts must have a carrier. Explosion should be a very wasteful means for the devil. Well, I learned these from the Paladin recently." Abdul explained when he saw the two people looking at him strangely.
"So the biggest possibility is that Tojo is accumulating strength in there, waiting to emerge. Please notify the commander-in-chief for me and arrange for the launch of a tactical nuclear bomb."
"At this stage, all ordinary people can withdraw from the battle. I need to trouble you to arrange for the non-supernormal people to retreat to the fortifications of the third line of defense and agree on a time for the launch."
Noguchi's tone sounded like he was about to set off fireworks.
Abdul couldn't help but take a few more glances at this person who was said to be the first to come into contact with the supernatural, as if he had just met him.
"I'll go right away."
Abdul knew the matter was serious, so he did not delay and quickly dived to the ground.
“I hope that I won’t have to show my children the Tokyo Tower and the Imperial Palace only in books in the future,” Tashiro said helplessly.
Noguchi shook his head: "It's just a tactical nuclear bomb. Tokyo Tower will be fine, but half of the Imperial Palace may disappear."
"That's fine, that's great news." Tadashi rolled his eyes.
Noguchi was about to say something, but suddenly his brows furrowed and he listened attentively.
"Did you hear anything?"
Southern defense line.
"The ghost army of the Imperial Palace has completely disappeared. Before we get any further news, our mission is to rebuild the defense line and count the casualties."
Ye Jie gathered the extraordinary people together and discussed the next arrangements.
However, many of them cast vague glances towards the strange man.
Wow, there were six extraordinary people before the war, and one more after the war.
If the Paladin hadn't been present, one would have suspected that it was a spy sent by the devil.
"I'm here to look for Seniors Jade-faced Fox and Ghost-faced Fox." Fox Seven raised his hand weakly, not daring to get angry at all. After listening for a while, he also knew the names of the two fox seniors.
The masked Erhu looked at her curiously when he heard that.
Fox Seven was helpless. After a series of changes, she returned to her female form, also wearing a mask, with furry ears and tail, and looked almost the same as the two foxes.
"Two seniors, I am also a fox man."
The Jade-faced Fox's eyes lit up, and he quickly pulled Fox Seven to his side.
"Why didn't you say it earlier? There's no need to hide it, but it's not convenient now. We'll talk about it in detail later." Fox Seven nodded vigorously, finally feeling a little safe.
Just now she saw how violent these two seniors were when they exerted their full strength. Their abilities were so numerous that she couldn't count them all at once.
Unlike her, who is of the lower class and has a strong body and extraordinary strength, how can she run around the world without a mask to help her disguise herself?
"Ahem, I'm quite familiar with the structure of the Self-Defense Forces and the Special Affairs Bureau. Leave the task of statistics to me and I'll give you the results as soon as possible."
William squinted in the direction of the Spiritualist Society. It seemed that something terrible was brewing, and he didn't want to waste time.
"Then I'll leave it to you." Ye Jie nodded and looked at Fox Qi, her acquaintance. However, for some reason, Fox Qi did not take the initiative to look for her, as if he didn't know her. It was strange.
But the situation is rather urgent now, and she has no time to reminisce about the past, so business is more important.
"We can do our part to help the injured." Jade-faced Fox slacked off for a long time and felt that it would be better to do more. Anyway, as long as they gathered everyone together, it would only be a matter of making a few jade pendants.
Ye Jie naturally would not refuse.
"Then should I go to the Spiritualist Society to find out what's going on?" Jennifer was eager to try.
"No!" Ye Jie quickly shook his head, "Sister, the aura there gives me a sense of oppression similar to that of the Demon Lord back then. It's very dangerous."
Afraid that Jennifer wouldn't believe it, she released the Demon Lord.
"Wow! What kind of Feng Shui land is this? The evildoers are buried three feet thick! And they are the kind that refuse to repent. The hell I built in the first place has to call me brother."
As soon as the Demon Lord came out, he was shocked by the activated evil thoughts.
She had come out before, but she hadn't been activated at that time, and she could only get some clues from the Spiritual Summoning Society.
If there were so many evil thoughts in her time, she would have dared to create hell on earth. Why would she need to open up new space? Did she really think it would be easy to maintain?
"Tell me, how are the demons accumulated like this compared to you in Mo City?" Ye Jie needs to be mentally prepared.
"Well, I still haven't recovered my full strength at that time. I'm a little bit stronger than I was then." The Demon Lord compared his two dog paws with a guilty conscience, "If I have to quantify it, it should be 50%."
"That's just what you said!" Jennifer wanted to curse.
The demon lord whispered back: "Only 50% in my prime."
"Abdul should be here soon, and this message can be passed on to him." Ye Jie frowned and looked into the distance.
She had excellent eyesight and, standing at a high place, seemed to see some strange scene.
With the shrouded Spirit-Calling Society as the center, strands of pink silk threads seemed to have no gravity, floating and connecting in the blood cloud, one after another, and soon, they formed a dense structure like a blood tree.
There seemed to be blood being transported inside, like bulging blue veins, but the inside was bright red.
The blood clouds in the sky were getting lower and lower, as if they could be touched with one's hand.
"Did you hear any sound?"
Ye Jie murmured.
"It seems... a little." Jennifer nodded and looked around, trying to find the source of the sound.
Brand, who had been silent all the time, looked up calmly at the cluster of hanging human heads in the sky.
The mouths of those heads.
Moving.
"My imperial lineage will be passed down for thousands of generations~"
"It has been passed down for eight thousand generations~"
"Until the small stone becomes a huge rock~"
"Until the rocks grow moss~"
"Is this a song?" Ye Jie understood Japanese, but had no impression of this song.
"I seem to have heard it somewhere! I know! I heard it when I was an exchange student in Japan. This is the national anthem of Japan!" Jennifer remembered.
Countless heads were hanging in the sky, with their mouths open singing songs. The scene was so weird no matter how you thought about it.
"Destroying the country by singing the national anthem?" Ye Jie didn't know what to say.
What she regretted most now was that since Jeremy's death, the other people in the Heaven Node simply did not have the corresponding ability to take advantage of the good thoughts that were released along with the evil thoughts.
Of course, she also didn't know that there were very few kind people here, as Carl, who took several days to recover from each attack, could attest.
"Use nuclear bombs?"
Kuroki Shinizumi was not surprised by Noguchi Takeshi's decision. He must have his reasons for making such a choice, and all she could do was to try her best to minimize the losses.
Whether it is a loss to the city or a loss to an individual.
Except for Tokyo Bay, the blood cloud did not spread beyond the third line of defense, so external communications could continue to be maintained.
Kuroki dialed Yoshida Hide's number and went straight to the point without any greetings.
"The appetizers have just passed, and the demon master is gathering strength in the Spiritual Conjuring Society. We can't just sit there and wait for death."
"you mean"
"At least launch a nuclear missile to explore the way, but it cannot be launched in the name of the Special Affairs Bureau."
".I understand. I will try to convince the Prime Minister. If that doesn't work, I will launch it in the name of the military."
The other party's straightforwardness immediately blocked all the arguments that Kuroki had prepared.
"I must admit that in the face of such a disaster, no matter how many fleets and soldiers we have, they are as foolish as dandelions trying to resist the storm."
"I once thought that we were not powerless against the extraordinary. We have an iron fleet, fearless aircraft, and well-trained troops."
"But the Maritime Self-Defense Force was completely destroyed right under my nose, and I was a coward who fled from the battlefield. No matter how many reasons I had to convince myself, it was not as good as the despair in his tone when I handed over the command of the scene to someone else."
"Since I can't explain to them or their parents and friends, let me bear the blame. I'll leave Tokyo to you."
"I believe that nuclear bombs can only destroy the buildings in Tokyo. Only when the demons are eliminated can we achieve redemption and a new life."
Kuroki took a deep breath, and there was no so-called despair in his eyes: "Thank you."
After hanging up the phone, she checked the time.
Twelve thirteen.
"Sound the nuclear explosion warning and notify all non-supernatural forces within the third line of defense to evacuate to the third line of defense fortifications. Forces outside the third line of defense will command the masses to enter the civil defense fortifications, and then follow in to maintain order."
"It is initially planned that in one hour, at least one tactical nuclear bomb will be launched with the Soul Summoning Society as the core. Notify the extraordinary to enter the bunker and take precautions."
Shortly after.
The classic triple beep and ticking sound echoed in the Tokyo sky with practical combat purposes.
