Chapter 443 No other options, ammunition depleted, desperate situation
War is like a meat grinder, devouring everything.
The demon vanguard is battling the armies of various races through tunnels dug by earth-burrowing dragons.
The demon army on the ground in the distance has already crossed the minefield and the scorched earth leveled by artillery fire to provide support.
Rumbling--
A major earthquake occurred.
Hundreds of massive siege beasts, each the size of a small mountain, stood atop thick bone armor, ignoring the barrage of artillery fire raining down from above.
boom!
A heavy cannon shot slammed into the back of one of the siege beasts, exploding into a burst of flames.
The giant beast merely paused briefly, shook its head, and continued its heavy strides.
Its enormous foot slammed down, crushing three dwarf warriors who couldn't dodge in time into a bloody pulp.
"Fire! Fire!"
A half-orc leader brandished a battle axe, shouting at the top of his lungs.
Countless magical rays and projectile trajectories intertwined into a net, falling upon the charging demon ranks.
But there are too many demons.
Those in front fell, and those behind continued their charge, stepping over the warm corpses of their comrades.
They used their own flesh and blood to pave a path forward on the scorched earth plowed by artillery fire.
"roar!"
A siege beast finally charged to the front of the battle line, suddenly lowered its head, and fiercely swung its huge bone horn.
boom!
The defensive line built by the elves using vines and rocks was forcibly torn open, creating a gap.
Countless demons and vicious dogs surged in through the breach like a black tide.
A portion of the demon army thus passed through the allied forces' second line of defense.
Their target is the very back, that steel defense line gleaming with a cold metallic light.
The position of the Great Xia.
"They're here!"
A lookout shouted.
Before the words were even finished, countless automatic turrets began to rotate and lock onto their targets.
Da da da da!
Flames spewed out.
The demons at the forefront were instantly riddled with bullets.
Tens of thousands of quadrupedal mechanical dogs, their eyes flashing red, charged out from one fortification after another.
With their limbs nimble, they charged into the demonic tide at a speed far exceeding that of ordinary people.
A machine gun mounted on the back of a mechanical dog accurately fired at a lesser demon, while a third-tier demon descended from the sky, its giant axe crashing down with devastating force.
The next second, the mechanical dog realized it was no match for the enemy and the explosive pack inside its body was detonated.
boom!
The small-scale explosion knocked several demons to the ground.
The soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty crouched in the trenches, their rifles spitting fire as they coordinated their defense.
"Left wing! The left wing needs support!"
"Tank battalion! Take that big guy out!"
A battalion commander roared into the communicator.
Not far away, the turret of a main battle tank rotated, locking onto a behemoth attempting to charge the defensive line.
boom!
The shell was fired.
At this moment, all the power of Terra and Great Xia joined the battle, entering into a fierce close-quarters combat.
……
On the other side, the coastline.
Due to the naval fleet's reduced defenses, many demons escaped and managed to wade through the minefield from the seabed, finally landing safely on the beach.
They had just climbed onto the slippery sand.
Shila-
The nuclear fusion high-voltage power grid deployed by the sea was instantly energized.
Tens of thousands of volts of blue electric arcs leaped wildly across the ground.
The thousands of demons at the forefront didn't even have time to scream before they were instantly turned into charred corpses emitting blue smoke.
A foul stench of burning protein filled the air.
Taking advantage of the high-voltage power grid's recharging phase, the demons continued their reckless charge.
Followed by.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Countless pre-buried anti-personnel mines were triggered, and hordes of demons were blasted into the sky.
On the beach defense line, the Land Shield 3000 close-in weapon system, heavy machine guns, automatic grenade launchers, coastal defense guns, and other weapons began to roar simultaneously.
The metallic storm composed of cubic nitrogen munitions turned the entire beach into a death zone.
The thick, black blood quickly turned the golden sand into a dark red.
However, the demon army was too large, a dark, overwhelming mass.
The demons who died in front became the best cover for the army behind.
They are making steady progress step by step.
There was no fear of war, no dread.
Right there in this chaotic killing field.
A demon, about five meters tall and with an extremely strange appearance, silently climbed ashore under the cover of its companions.
Its entire body is covered with dark purple skin, and its surface is covered with dense tumors and tentacles.
The tip of each tentacle was twitching slightly, as if sensing something.
This is a Level 1 Space Jump Beast.
The rarest and most unique strategic unit in the demon army.
A great disposable product.
A level one warp beast is not yet able to open a true spatial wormhole.
But it can record spatial coordinates, providing precise leap targets for higher-level counterparts, or for its own future growth.
Level 2 warp beasts, several kilometers in size, are typically used to construct space wormholes within star systems.
The Level 3 warp beasts can open wormholes across star systems, and their size reaches a terrifying tens of kilometers or more.
It is these things that allow the demons to traverse vast distances between stars in the universe, find suitable resource planets, and invade various civilizations.
At this moment, this first-level warp beast was inconspicuous among the countless ferocious demons.
The firepower of the Great Xia was entirely drawn to those ferocious demons.
Nobody noticed this strange guy at all.
It raised its head, and on its eyeless face, countless tentacles were all pointing in the same direction.
Two kilometers away, there were those enormous teleportation portals.
Inside one of the doors, you can see transport helicopters and trucks continuously delivering various munitions and supplies.
The fleshy growths on the leap beast's body began to rhythmically flash with a faint purple light.
The frequency of those wriggling tentacles also increased.
It is calculating.
It is recording.
It could clearly sense that Terra was behind the other doors.
Only behind that giant door lies a completely new and stable space.
A... completely new world.
Half an hour later.
After confirming that it had firmly imprinted the spatial coordinates deep within its genes, the warp beast quietly retreated.
It twisted its body, like a slippery python, and submerged again into the crimson seawater churning with demon corpses.
They come without a trace and go without a trace.
Meanwhile, the ground offensive continues.
The demon army, stepping over the corpses of their comrades, had advanced to within 500 meters of the teleportation portal.
The pressure on the defense line is increasing.
"Hold on! You all fucking hold on!"
A company commander, covered in blood, roared in a hoarse voice.
"Anyone who dares to back down will be killed by my own hand!"
"Terra is our hope. We must not back down. Even if we die, we must die on the front lines, not as cowards!"
In the trench beside him, a young soldier had just poked his head out when a bone spear pierced through his helmet.
The red and white substances splashed all over the company commander's face.
Without even blinking, the company commander grabbed the fallen soldier's rifle and continued firing forward.
The situation has become extremely critical.
Inside the command center, Long Zhan's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at the approaching red arrow on the map.
Beside him, a staff officer's voice trembled.
"Commander, the 'Pangu Guardians' teams number three, seven, and twelve have lost contact."
"The 5th Combined Arms Brigade requests backup!"
"A high-risk Tier 6 target has been detected at frontline coordinates xxx. Requesting missile strike assistance!"
"More than 70% of the forward positions have been destroyed!"
"The naval fleet is running out of ammunition, and the supply ships simply cannot keep up with the demand. They have already tightened their defenses and are currently relying entirely on naval soldiers, the electric eel system, and helicopters for support."
"The most important thing is the beach; the demons... are only 500 meters away from the portal!"
