Chapter 101 Corpse Guard Group
"The nuclear power module has been launched, and the Trieste requests to immediately retrieve the safety rope." Yuan Zhisheng said loudly.
"The Sumeru Seat is retracting the safety line." Zhang Baiqing turned to ask Ying beside him: "The nuclear power cabin explosion equivalent is 100 million tons? The little boy seems to be only 1.6 tons? Are you sure we will be safe on the sea?"
Sakura replied, "The explosion range of a nuclear bomb on the seabed will be limited. Our Japanese branch has already calculated all of this. 20 minutes is enough for them to surface 4 kilometers and get out of the explosion range."
"Oh." Zhang Baiqing nodded: "Are you prepared for possible tsunamis and earthquakes?"
"A nuclear power module explosion with a yield of 100 million tons will not theoretically cause a tsunami or earthquake," Ying said. "But we have made preparations just in case."
"Then you can start implementing it. Retrieve the safety rope on the Trieste at full speed." Zhang Baiqing said decisively.
The nuclear power cabin was modified by Kassel College and then by the Rock Flow Research Institute. The explosive equivalent of this nuclear bomb is definitely more than 100 million tons. It will only be more powerful. It can't be that the power will become smaller and smaller, right?
After dropping the nuclear power cabin, the Trieste began to surface rapidly. Yuan Zhisheng and his men saw the refined sulfur bomb explode first. Its horrific power knocked down the dragon meat tower that was integrated with the giant ship. The alchemical sulfur easily penetrated the rapidly drying dragon meat.
"An underwater volcano erupted."
Chu Zihang saw the fiery red magma slowly but continuously rushing towards the ancient city of Takama-ga-hara. Countless sea water was vaporized, and the sound was like an endless roar of thunder.
The Sumeru throne on the sea surface was also trying hard to retrieve the safety rope. The head of the eight Sheqi families was inside the submersible.
"They have awakened." Caesar suddenly saw the golden eyes in the ancient city. Corpses with human bodies and snake tails were guarding the ancient city, picking up snails on the ground, and the snake tails were swimming and rising quickly.
"The group of corpse guards have begun to wake up and surface. The nuclear explosion cannot eliminate them all!" Yuan Zhisheng shouted into the communicator.
"These corpse guards may not have awakened because of our arrival, but because of the eruption of the underwater volcano, so they awakened early!"
Caesar came up with a bold idea.
Chu Zihang said: "Why do I feel that it is more likely that the gods discovered that we were coming to kill them, so they triggered the volcanic eruption? The vibrations from the volcanic eruption scared them, so they woke up."
"Got it. I've already started getting the cleanup crew on board and out to sea."
The weapons prepared by the Eight Snake Clans will come in handy, but their guns and heavy firepower may not be able to eliminate all the corpse guards who escaped the nuclear explosion.
So they brought a 10,000-ton oil tanker ahead and began dumping all the oil in this sea area. As soon as the corpse guards showed up, they would immediately ignite the crude oil floating on the sea.
"Activate EVA mode and control the U.S. fleet at the entrance of the Japanese Sea." Ange said, "Prevent the Shishou group from going to sea and ashore."
"Received, respected Principal Ange." EVA's voice appeared.
"Pompeii, do you think a nuclear bomb with a yield of one million can really kill a god?"
"Maybe?" Pompey said uncertainly, "This kind of existence has surpassed the ordinary dragon king. I have never observed it directly, and I can't guess their power."
The speed of the zombie guards was much faster than the speed at which the Trieste could surface. When they were halfway there, the first wave of zombie guards that had emerged from the water had already begun to surface.
The oil layer was immediately ignited, and the corpse guard, covered in flames, jumped onto the coast guard ship of the Sheqi Eight Clan.
"Boom!"
The Trieste's ascent speed suddenly increased rapidly. The nuclear bomb they dropped had exploded, and the resulting shock wave quickly pushed them upwards.
The sea water became more turbulent, and the four islands of Japan felt the vibration. The nuclear power compartment, which had been modified twice in a row, exploded with an explosion equivalent of more than one million tons, which inevitably caused an earthquake on the fragile foundation of the seabed of Japan.
"The Earthquake Bureau has issued an earthquake and tsunami warning. The tsunami will begin in about seven minutes." Ying reported to Zhang Baiqing.
Crow stumbled in and said, "It's bad, Zhang Jun. The people guarding the safety rope winch can't hold on any longer."
"Isn't this only the second wave of corpse guards? How come you can't hold on? What about other places?" Zhang Baiqing was stunned. Why are the Eight Clans of Sheqi so unreliable?
It has only been ten minutes since the first wave of corpse guards began to awaken and emerge! The nuclear bomb just exploded, and if one wave appears every one or two minutes, there will be at least five or six more waves to come!
"Other places can still hold out, but they are expected to only last until the fourth wave before they are completely wiped out!"
"The ships of the US Seventh Fleet are on their way. Hold on," Ange said via mobile phone.
"How long will it take to come here and provide effective support?"
"More than an hour."
"Damn it, just let them clean up the shore! To prevent the Corpse Guards from coming ashore, by the time they arrive in an hour, the Corpse Guards will have dispersed!"
Zhang Baiqing turned around and asked Ying: "Don't you have any emergency plans?"
"Yes, Mr. Uesugi is on his way and is expected to arrive in 20 minutes."
In fact, this kind of lawn mowing job should be the most suitable person for Eri, but Eri has been sent out of Japan.
Uesugi Yue's Black Day is far less efficient than Eri in mowing the lawn, but now that Eri is not here, Uesugi Yue, as the father, can do some hard work.
"I'll guard the winch, and I'll leave the control room to you." Zhang Baiqing left the control room to Ying, and hurriedly ran to guard the winch with Crow. These corpse guards with snake tails were far more powerful than the deadpools that were flooding Japan. Guns were basically useless, and only heavy weapons could play a role. The knife-wielding members of the Snake Eight Clan could only retreat step by step in the face of the corpse guards that kept coming.
When Zhang Baiqing saw the winch, there were already corpses guarding and destroying it.
Zhang Baiqing picked up a knife from the ground and nailed the corpse guard to the mast with one throw.
"Didn't that General Wang show up?" Zhang Baiqing chopped the corpse guard who was rushing towards him into two pieces, then turned to ask Crow.
"No." Crow said, "There is no trace of the enemy. The biggest problem now is that the corpse guards have landed."
"Then it seems that your god may not be dead."
"No way? That was a nuclear explosion with a yield of one million tons!" Crow was a little surprised. A nuclear bomb with a yield of one million tons was right in front of his face, but he didn't die?
"I'm just guessing."
Why didn't General Wang, who had a lot of information at his disposal, show up in Longyuan's plan this time? The other party was obviously so eager for the divine blood, so logically he should have frantically obstructed their plan or made some moves in secret.
But the other party didn't show up until the nuclear explosion. Unless the other party gave up the divine blood, but this possibility was not high. How could it be so easy to give up something that you have been pursuing for so many years.
Or, the other party is certain that a nuclear explosion will not kill God!
The corpses kept emerging from the water and rushing towards the flesh and blood.
When Uesugi Yue knew that his son had entered the submersible, he immediately asked the people from the Snake Eight Families to find a medium-sized boat to bring him over. However, when they were about to get close, corpses suddenly jumped out of the water one after another.
These corpse guards were not a problem for Uesugi Yue. After activating the dragon blood, he killed them one by one with his sword. However, the dense numbers of corpse guards climbing onto the boat made him feel frightened, especially when he got closer, he saw a sea of fire on the sea in the distance.
The brightly lit palace on the sea looked like it was burning in a raging fire, tottering and ready to collapse at any moment.
Things are always more complicated than he imagined. Not only Takama-ga-hara was buried in the abyss with God, but also countless corpse guardians.
"Mr. Yue, something is wrong! There are too many of these deadpools with snake tails!"
The crew came running over, and he fought a desperate battle with the corpse guards, with blood all over his body.
"I know. Drive the boat over quickly. Your head patriarch is still over there! Guard the wheelhouse. I'll deal with these guys who ran onto the deck."
"Yes!"
He quickly ran back to the cab.
The Trieste surfaced, and Yuan Zhisheng and his companions immediately opened the hatch and jumped onto the platform.
"A lot of corpse guards!"
Caesar and his companions looked through the observation window in the Trieste and almost saw the endless stream of corpses swimming in the water, wagging their tails and swimming to the surface like schools of fish.
"What's the situation?" Yuan Zhisheng immediately asked Zhang Baiqing who was holding the winch.
"The good news is that General Wang did not show up to disrupt the plan, and all the corpse guards who wanted to escape to this sea area have been dealt with. The bad news is that those who swam to the four islands of Japan have not been dealt with, and more than half of the thousands of men from your Sheqi Eight Clan have been killed."
A total of four waves of zombies swam on the sea surface, and almost all the combat defense personnel died.
Yuan Zhisheng felt his scalp tingling as soon as he heard it, "What should we do with the corpses guarding the shore?"
They had long expected that there would be corpses in Takama-ga-hara, but they did not expect them to wake up and escape so quickly. Otherwise, a nuclear explosion with a million-ton equivalent would be enough to bury them completely in Takama-ga-hara and put them to sleep forever.
"The principal mobilized the U.S. Seventh Fleet to intercept them ashore."
"Can it be intercepted?" Chu Zihang asked.
Yuan Zhisheng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard him say this, and asked Chu Zihang to explain: "This is an entire US fleet. You said it might be a bit difficult for them to slay the dragon, but they can still deal with these corpse guards. Their firepower is real!"
As a Japanese, he is quite familiar with the US naval fleet stationed in Japan.
In the distance, a medium-sized ship was approaching the Sumeru platform.
Countless corpses of the Corpse Guards were piled on the platform. The ship that broke out from the outside sea was besieged by a large number of Corpse Guards. They were hanging on the hull like zombies, climbing onto the deck with their sharp claws. There were so many of them that it was like a plague of locusts.
But what greeted them was a black sun. Uesugi Yue held two swords in his hands, and the black sun was running at full speed. The corpse guards who jumped onto the deck were directly sucked over, and then spontaneously combusted in the middle of the journey. The corpse guards with hard bodies were not immediately burned to ashes by the flames, but with one strike from Uesugi Yue, they were immediately broken into two.
As we got closer to the sea of fire, the number of corpses guarding us gradually decreased, and the corpses guarding us that had floated up from the bottom of the sea had almost all swam out.
The magnitude of the earthquake that spread to the four islands of Japan was not high. They have rich knowledge of earthquake prevention, and the buildings they built also have certain earthquake-proof functions.
When the tsunami hit the shore, it was only about ten meters high, but it still scared the Japanese a lot. Although there was advance notice, the sudden earthquake and tsunami in the middle of the night still caused great losses to the areas near the coast.
The U.S. Navy's Seventh Fleet, which inexplicably sailed out of the port, was even more frightened. The personnel on duty on the ship inexplicably found that the ship had started on its own. They were sweating profusely and had not yet found the problem. They could not contact their superiors. The officers on the ship had not yet understood what was going on. The automated weapons and equipment opened fire. The close-in defense guns fired at the sea surface, and the missiles automatically flew out of the wells, with white smoke rising.
