"Ah —!!!"
Terrified screams echoed in the dark and cold depths of the sea. N ∈
After the pipeline shattered, every resident in the pipeline let out this horrified scream from the depths of their thoughts. It was so small compared to the roar of the sea, but none of the residents cared about it.
They didn't even know the meaning of screaming. They only knew that when they screamed, they had to cooperate with their body movements, such as … running wildly.
When the operators of the vehicles heard the screams and saw the surging sea behind them, they pushed the engine to the maximum and drove the vehicles forward with the most fearful emotions.
'Bang —!' In an instant, countless accidents happened. The vehicles and residents in the pipeline crazily collided with each other and were swallowed by the rushing sea.
In the sudden destruction, there were very few survivors … but there were still a few residents who had reached where they were supposed to reach before the violent sea arrived — the end of the pipeline, which was also the entrance of the underwater city.
"Ah ah ah! Let us in! "
However, the residents who came here found that the gate of the city was slowly closing.
'Whoosh!' A vehicle that had been waiting for the gate to fall rushed through the gate like a gust of wind and sped into the streets of the city.
However, the other vehicles behind it did not have such a good fate. One of the drivers seemed to be too nervous and too fast to control the direction of the vehicle. His vehicle was slightly crooked. It bumped into another … companion who was riding side by side next to it.
This vehicle was also crooked because of the collision. The degree of its crooked angle was much greater, so it also bumped into the companion next to it.
The problem was that there were dozens of vehicles rushing on the road. They were all rushing toward the gate at a very high speed. They didn't have the chance to react to this accident at all.
'Bang!' In an instant, the road seemed to explode with fireworks made of vehicles. Many vehicles that were sent flying due to the collision spun in the air and then fell heavily to the ground, blocking the entire pipeline.
They blocked the escape route of more vehicles behind them, but they couldn't stop the sea. The roaring waves would soon wash this place clean.
Therefore, the gatekeeper here ignored the cries and screams of the people who were running on the road. It pressed the 3D image in front of it as if it had gone mad. A red circle was displayed on the image. As long as it touched the red circle, it would close the door of the passage.
However, it had never heard of a gate closing so slowly …
"Which damned bastard set the closing speed of the gate? I'll beat it to death when I see it! "The gatekeeper was in the office. There were 3D images showing all kinds of environments everywhere.
In one of the images, there was a long pipeline. It could be seen that the middle of the pipeline was constantly flashing red. The red color was constantly increasing, and it was getting closer and closer to the end of the pipeline.
This was one of the reasons why the gatekeeper was in an extreme state. But there wasn't much it could do now …
It could only keep cursing the designer of the gate and then crazily hitting the gate and to the gate, and praying that the gate would completely close before the sea..
Fortunately, looking at the speed at which the door was closing, it believed that the door would be completely closed before the seawater arrived.
Unless …
'Bang!'
Just as the caretaker was deep in thought, a series of crashing noises came from the entrance. Through the projection, it saw several vehicles breaking through the 'roadblock' from before, but when they reached the entrance, they collided into one another and blocked the entrance.
When the gate completely fell, it was very likely that it would be stuck by these vehicles … and it was impossible to clear them now.
Just as the gatekeeper was wondering what to do, the gate had already descended to the position of the vehicles that were blocking the gate.
However, just as the gatekeeper thought that the gate would be blocked, the gate continued to descend and cut all the vehicles that were blocking the gate.
It was like cutting a piece of oil with a knife. There was no difficulty.
'Boom!' The gate fell to the ground, and all the vehicles that were blocking the gate were cut in half. The people outside the gate who didn't have time to enter screamed and kept knocking on the gate.
"There are still people here!" "Let us in!" "Help!"
Listening to the terrified screams of the people who were blocked outside, the watchman's tense mood finally relaxed. However, it was not completely relaxed yet. The operation in its hands continued. Soon, after the first door, the second and third doors fell one after another, completely sealing the passage.
This was the main structure of this place. After the multiple gates were closed, the sea couldn't seep into the city. However, this design had a fatal flaw, and that was that the gate had to slowly fall before the other gates could be activated.
The gatekeeper even suspected that the designer of the gate was a spy because this design was obviously designed to destroy the city …
Moreover, it didn't know that the gate fell so slowly.
But fortunately, the problem was solved.
No, it's not over yet. This is just the beginning … At that thought, the caretaker turned its gaze back to the projection. The citizens were still hammering on the door madly. Some of their hands were bleeding, but it was meaningless.
In another image, the gatekeeper could see that the red pipe had reached this position.
'Splash …'
In the next second, the surging seawater appeared on the screen. All the vehicles on the road, as well as the people who were screaming in fear, were washed away in this second.
They turned into a part of the seawater and continued to surge with the water. The cold seawater directly hit the tightly shut gate and made a dull sound.
Perhaps the merging wasn't perfect. Some water flowed out from under the gate, but it couldn't pass through the second gate. The city was now safe.
However, whether it was the gatekeeper or the Voidfolk who had been paying attention to this incident from the beginning, they all knew what was going to happen next.
The gatekeeper continued to stare at the image.
The giant in the water … the source of the broken pipe. Its figure didn't disappear. Instead, it swam toward the other pipe.
Panic once again filled the gatekeeper's mind. However, it couldn't do anything now. It could only hope that the gate of the other pipe wouldn't be as slow as this one.
…
"Ah —!!!"
The giant beast swam in the sea. Its white and gorgeous scales reflected a gorgeous luster under the illumination of the lights around the pipe. The brighter the luster on its body, the closer it was to the pipe in front of it …
The Voidfolk who saw this scene all screamed, and then, like the people in the previous pipe, they began to run in the craziest way of their lives.
However, their speed couldn't catch up with the giant beast.
'Pa —!'
The giant beast's body brushed past the pipe. The outer wall of the pipe instantly shattered. The seawater rushed into the second pipe again. Just like before, the cold seawater rolled all the lives in the pipe together and brought them toward the entrance of the city.
'Bang!'
The gate here wasn't as slow. Under the gatekeeper's control, it instantly blocked the entrance before the seawater … and all the refugees arrived.
The giant beast in the sea didn't care so much. It swam toward the third pipe. It raised its forelimbs in advance to show that it wanted to completely crush this pipe.
However, this time, there was a small accident before it reached the pipe.
The giant beast felt a glaring light shining on its face. Its silver pupils shrank. It turned its head to look in the direction of the light …
What it could see was an object that was constantly enlarging. There was also a string of bubbles behind the object.
'Boom …!'
The explosion made a dull sound in the water. Countless bubbles and a strong impact exploded on the giant beast's head. In the direction where the giant beast's head was looking, five metallic structures that were mainly black appeared.
'Beach-type' patrol boats. Generally, these metallic structures were called that. Although there was the word 'beach' in their name, they were specifically used for deep sea combat.
They were about 30 meters long and had always been on standby in the military base under the city.
They were originally designed to deal with the attacks of the same kind of Voidfolk, but it seemed to be quite effective against monsters.
"The target has been hit." In one of the patrol boats, the Voidfolk stared intently at the scene in front of them and reported to their captain at the same time.
"Very good. Continue to shoot and blow this monster up."
On both sides of all the patrol boats, dozens of green warheads shot out rapidly. While leaving a long string of bubbles in the water, these warheads also hit the target.
The dull sound continued to ring in the water. The giant beast's body and head were already submerged by the impact of the explosion. Countless bubbles and dust on the seabed were also stirred up, blocking its huge body. The Voidfolk in the submarine didn't know what the target was.
"It must be dead."
One of the Voidfolk came to this conclusion.
"Although I don't know where this monster came from, no living creature can withstand this kind of bombardment."
'Gulp —'
But just as he finished speaking, he noticed that the bubbles on the screen were surging. A huge silver body rushed out from within. Before the Voidfolk in the submarine could react, they saw it swimming towards them.
