Even in this era, exploring the depths of the ocean would always reveal many wonderful things, such as the ruins of some ancient cities.
When excavating them, the excavators could not help but wonder if there were many ancient civilizations in this world. Because of all kinds of wonderful things in the ocean, like buildings, the scholars who studied antiquities were always thinking about it.
However, they never thought that a modern city would become … an underwater ruin.
"Ahhhhhh! Help! Help! "
The cold seawater was roaring, and there were screams in the water. A large number of Voidfolk … They were submerged in the water.
This used to be the streets of the city, but now it was covered with a layer of seawater. The creatures in the water kept swaying their bodies, making their last struggle.
The Voidfolk tried to swim to the nearest tall building or any area that could be climbed up and stayed on top. Even though they knew that no matter how big the building was, it would be submerged by the seawater sooner or later, they wanted to do this, they wanted to move for a longer time.
Most of them drowned in the seawater before that happened.
Because the seawater allowed the Voidfolk to escape the threat of the fungus, they quickly fell into the cold embrace. Most of the Voidfolk could not swim, even if they lived in the sea. Many of them thought that swimming was a superfluous skill, so they did not learn it.
The rest who knew how to swim learned it from various amusement parks related to water. They were very glad that they swam seriously at that time and did not rely on floating objects to play with the water.
Even so, many of the Voidfolk who knew how to swim died. Some of them died from the cold. The temperature of the water in the deep sea was so low that it was beyond their imagination. Some of them were dragged into the deep water by their fellow Voidfolk who did not know how to swim. The last few Voidfolk with strong bodies and resistance to the cold were able to climb to higher places and delay the time of drowning.
Boom … The ground shook slowly. The deep sea monster strolled on the flooded streets. It looked at the Voidfolk who were screaming and swimming around, but did not care about them.
It turned its head and looked into the distance. There were a few big holes in the city's protective wall. A large amount of water poured down and watered the city streets.
This was the main reason for the flooding. Because the holes were not big enough, the flooding was slower, but it was only a matter of time. In the end, the city would be flooded.
At the same time … outside.
"The door is closed, General."
This was the entrance to the underwater base outside the city. Originally, there was an entrance gate here that was smashed by a giant beast. Then, the giant beast broke through the inner wall of the port and rushed into the base.
But now. The outermost entrance seemed to be intact because the submarine force here controlled the internal system of the base. They activated the backup gate, and a new gate was placed behind the broken gate, blocking everything in the base.
Of course, this was mainly used to block the giant beast. It would prevent the giant beast from retracing its steps. At the very least, it would not be that easy to leave this place.
"Very good. You guys stay there and wait for orders. Once the monster reaches the door, immediately attack!"
"Yes!" There were a total of ten submarines outside the base. They were about sixty meters long, neither too big nor too small. However, the size was not the main point. The main point was that they had prepared a lot of missiles. They believed that if the behemoth dared to come here … they would definitely be able to blow it to pieces.
However, the submarine fleet was not the only one. More troops had arrived and surrounded the city.
It was almost impossible for the troops to enter the city and save the citizens inside. It was too difficult to perform.
Therefore, they could only let the city be submerged. Not only would this prevent the fungus from spreading, it would also prevent the fungus from creating something in the end.
The Voidpeople soldiers all believed that this giant beast was the fungus' 'final trump card'. As long as it was killed, then the threat of the fungus would be completely eliminated.
Now, the city had become its cage, so they could only sacrifice the citizens there.
As for the various problems that would come from deliberately killing and injuring so many citizens, that was a matter for the future. Now, they just had to focus on dealing with this matter.
"…" The giant beast seemed to have expected something.
It had been staring at the hole that was gushing in from the city's streets. Its mind was thinking …
Then, it began to move.
Now, the water was rising higher, but it was not high enough for it to swim. Therefore, every step it took would cause the ground here to tremble.
"Ah ah! Don't come over! "
The Voidpeople on a building in front of the giant beast felt the tremors and instantly panicked. They squeezed at the top of the building and had no way to escape. They could only watch as the giant beast approached step by step.
The giant beast did not look at these Voidpeople. It kept staring at the water entrance in the distance. Therefore, it did not avoid these Voidpeople. Its huge body was getting closer and closer to the building … Finally, it walked past the building and the side of its body brushed against the building …
"Rumble …" The entire building shook. The Voidpeople on top screamed again. A few Voidpeople directly jumped into the water from high places, but most of them were still squeezing at the edge of the shaking building to support their bodies.
The giant beast still ignored them. It walked past them. After it walked past them, its swinging tail hit the building again …
The sound of the building's structure breaking rang through the place. The Voidpeople on top could not stay any longer. One by one, they jumped into the cold water.
However, they realized that they were not only facing the temperature of the water. The water below suddenly surged violently. That was because … the giant beast beside them had suddenly started to run.
Along the way, it knocked down a few buildings and crushed a food store. The giant beast arrived at the protective wall. It did not stop and directly slammed its head into the protective wall.
"Dong!!!"
A trembling sound was heard. Then, the sound of cracking could be heard.
However, the cracking was not at the place where the giant beast slammed into, but at the gate above, the place where the water entered … Cracks appeared on both sides of the hole where the water continued to flow in …
Seeing this, the giant beast slammed into the wall again. This time, the tremors were not only heard by the giant beast and the Voidpeople here.
