Chapter 48

Tom's death was beyond Fangzheng's expectations. To be honest, Fangzheng did not have much affection for this world, but Tom was still a hero, so he planned to have a good talk with him. He did not expect Tom to shoot himself the moment he heard the word "ability". He was probably afraid that Fangzheng would slice him up … Sigh, it's not good to be too used to certain things.

The protagonist was dead. Fangzheng could only mourn for him for three seconds. What else could he do? If the protagonist wanted to die, there was nothing he could do.

Due to Tom's death, the entire plot of "Edge of Tomorrow" would definitely collapse. But Fangzheng did not care. He had never intended to take the protagonist's route, so Tom's death was not a big problem for him. In fact, it did not affect humans much either, because … the situation could not get any worse.

The troops that landed on the beach were once again wiped out by the alien monsters. Since the protagonist did not have the ability to backtrack, the alien monsters directly crossed the channel and destroyed the whole of London. Through the live broadcast, Fangzheng could see that the whole of London had fallen into a sea of fire. Then, the scene was cut off. Although he could not see what happened there with his own eyes, Fangzheng was certain of the ending.

In the following days, these mimicry aliens could be said to have spread out in all directions, attacking on all fronts. Europe had basically completely fallen, and humans were constantly losing ground. After eliminating all resistance in Europe, these alien monsters began to advance towards the east where Fangzheng was.

It's about time.

Through the Internet, Fangzheng had roughly figured out the current situation on Earth. Europe had fallen, and the flames of war were burning in other places. The 'bald eagle' was unable to take care of itself, and the Eurasian continent was struggling to support them. Seeing that humanity had reached the critical moment of life and death. So according to the usual routine, at this time, it was time for the savior to appear.

However, this Messiah did not look like a Messiah at all.

"Master."

Just as Fangzheng was holding his mobile phone and observing the battle while letting his imagination run wild, Milune came to his side.

"The enemy is about to arrive at the front line, and they are currently fighting with humans."

"How's the situation?"

Fangzheng was not surprised by Milune's report. As early as a few days ago, he knew that a joint force from Hairy Bear and Rabbit had arrived here, and they had spread out a line of defense to defend against the approaching mimicry army. Fangzheng also saw this, but he did not make contact with the other party. He even ordered the Zerg all over the mountains to hide underground, lest those people found out that there was such a huge Zerg army hiding around him, and they might just pee their pants.

"Humans are losing ground, and it's only a matter of time before they are completely annihilated."

"Very good."

Hearing Milune's answer, Fangzheng nodded in satisfaction, then turned off his mobile phone and stood up.

"Milune, do you know why humans like superheroes?"

"Superheroes? Is it because of the existence in the story you told me before, Master? I think it's because they have great power, and humans must be very eager to get this power. "

Very good, this is very much like the Zerg … But this was indeed the thought of many humans. Perhaps the similarities between the Zerg and humans were more than they had imagined?

"That's one of them, but the most important thing is that superheroes always appear when people are most desperate and helpless, giving them something more precious than life — hope."

"Asking for help from a strong individual is a sign of weakness, Master."

But Milune obviously didn't care. Although her appearance was similar to a human girl, she was still a Zerg after all.

"The weak only need to obey, they are not qualified to ask for help."

"This is the difference between the insectoids and humans."

Fangzheng didn't intend to convince Milune. After all, for Zerg, the only value of a powerful existence in their eyes was to kill them, devour their genetic sequences, and integrate the other party's power into their own bodies to make themselves stronger. This was the characteristic of Zerg civilization. Persuading them to change their way of thinking was tantamount to trying to persuade a tiger to become a vegetarian, so Fangzheng didn't feel conflicted about Milune's answer.

"But no matter what, it's always good to have less trouble. It's time for us to show up. Milune, get ready to attack!"

"As you wish, Master."

At the moment, the situation at the front line was already chaotic.

"Captain Wong!"

A soldier riding on an exoskeleton strode across the sand to a man dressed like an officer and wiped the blood off his face.

"What instructions does the command center have?!"

"The command center ordered us to defend! This line of defense is the most important checkpoint to enter the east. We can't lose it! "

The officer known as Captain Wong raised his right hand, aimed at the sand in front of him, and pulled the trigger. Soon, a series of bullets were fired from the machine gun mounted on his arm, and a mimicry monster that sprang out of the sand was smashed into pieces.

"We don't have enough manpower. We can't hold on at all. What's the situation on Monkalevsky's side?"

"They're still holding on!!"

"Boom!!"

Before Captain Wong's voice could fade away, a violent explosion suddenly sounded. The two hurriedly turned their heads to look at the place where the explosion occurred. They saw a fireball rising from the ground and flying into the air.

"Damn it, that's Position 215. They must have lost it!!"

Seeing this scene, Captain Wong's face turned ashen. He immediately turned on the communicator and shouted.

"This is Position 128. Can anyone hear me? Answer me if you hear me? Damn it … "

After hearing no reply, Captain Wong angrily took off his helmet and threw it to the side. He raised his weapon and looked forward. At that moment, a group of mimicry monsters emerged from it. As if they had sensed that the enemy in front of them was already a spent force, they began to scream at the soldiers in front of them.

"You monsters! We will never give up, and we will never retreat! Everyone, take a step forward! "

Following Captain Wong's roar, the remaining soldiers took a step forward with resolute expressions and raised the guns in their hands.

"If you want to get through here, you'll have to step over our dead bodies, monsters!!"

"— — — — — —!"

Hearing Captain Wong's angry roar, the alien monsters also opened their mouths angrily and roared. But the next moment, they did not rush forward as everyone expected. Instead, these alien monsters began to retreat.

"This … This is …"

"What's going on? Captain Wong? "

Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked. They were all prepared to die in battle here. If those mimicry monsters had pounced on them just now, they would have died without a doubt. But to everyone's surprise, not only did these monsters not pounce on them, they even retreated. Was their captain so powerful that he could force back 800 elite soldiers with a single roar?

"I don't know either."

Raising his gun, Captain Wong himself was dumbfounded. He looked at the monsters in front of him and had no idea what they were up to. But when he took a closer look, he was surprised to find that these monsters seemed to be very … nervous?

Nervous?

Captain Wong's eyes widened as he looked at the monsters in front of him in surprise. He even stretched out his hand to rub his eyes before looking again. That's right, these monsters seemed to be very anxious, uneasy, and nervous. They stared at him, and the antennae on their bodies were almost about to explode. It looked as if they had encountered some terrifying enemy, but they didn't seem to have changed at all. They were just ordinary soldiers. Since when were these monsters afraid of them?

"Rumble …"

It was only then that Captain Wang heard a sound coming from behind him. He looked down and was surprised to find that even the ground was trembling slightly. Following the appearance of the sound, the alien monsters seemed to become more and more nervous. They even subconsciously retreated and formed a defensive formation!

Defense? He had fought with these guys all his life, but he had never seen them defend!

What was behind them?

"C-Captain Wong! “

At that moment, a trembling voice suddenly sounded. Captain Wong looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young soldier not far from him turn his head to look behind him with a pale face. His body was trembling uncontrollably, and he looked like he was about to collapse to the ground. Captain Wong knew him. This was one of the bravest boys under him. Even if a gun was pointed at his head, he would not even frown. But now, this young man was like a rookie who had just entered the battlefield. He was so scared that he took a few steps back in the direction of the mimicry monsters. His legs turned to jelly, and he fell to the ground!

"What's wrong with you? Pull yourself together, what's going on?! "

While shouting, Captain Wong also turned his head to look behind him.

Then, his whole body froze.
