In My Head There is an Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 226: The Battle Against a Swarm of Monsters
Alarms echoed throughout the base. Everyone is surprised. This alarm can only mean monsters.
At this moment, the greatest enemy of the human race was only monsters.
Soon after, everyone heard the sound of regular footsteps. It was an army army that was moving out. It's not that there are no soldiers at Base 15. In fact, there are still soldiers. They are separated from the students. After all, it was impossible to stop the herd of monsters with just students.
Very quickly, they all received news from Base 15. There are monsters outside. At the same time, they also told these students that if they wanted to participate in this battle, they would have to go to the designated location. Only that location was open for students to kill monsters and train themselves. The other places were all guarded by troops.
Everyone had no time to reminisce about the battle between Chu Yunfan and Zheng Hongzhe. Now, it was finally their turn to make a real fight.
Most of them had participated in the actual battle sessions organized for the third year. However, the actual level of the fight could not compare to when they faced the horde of monsters.
Everyone started to head to the open area. Fortunately, the open area was very close to Zone 1. In a short time, they arrived at the open area wall.
The walls are not very high. It's only about 20 meters high. Other than flying monsters, it was not easy for ordinary monsters to travel this distance.
“Ratatat!”
“Boom boom boom!”
“Zipper zipper zipper zipper!”
…
After climbing the wall, the students finally saw a battle between humans and monsters, which was different from ordinary battles.
Across them was an infinite number of monsters sweeping out like a tidal wave. Even though it was only a swarm of small-scale monsters, that incredible scene still shocked everyone. The sky, the ground, the hills, the forest, the terrifying monster figures were everywhere.
The scariest thing about monsters was their reproductive speed. Compared to humans, it was even more exaggerated. It was normal for monsters to give birth to more than a dozen descendants at once whereas humans usually only had one. Both were considered pleasant surprises.
As long as monsters grew, they could kill people and become strong. If humans did not invest resources, pass down knowledge, or teach martial arts, even if they grew up, they would still be vulnerable to monsters. This is the reason why even though humans have an edge in technology, the overall situation is not optimistic.
At this moment, the troops stationed at Base 15 finally showed their strength. Countless metal bullets were swept away in a dense formation like a torrential rain. At the back, cannons were fired, revealing their ferocious faces. One by one the cannons were fired. Every time the cannon was fired, a group of monsters would be hit, not even bones were left behind. However, more and more monsters came from all directions and filled the room.
In the sky, more and more flying monsters shouted as they swooped down.
The students could not help but miss the incredible battle when they saw it. They're very excited.
A broadcast sounded.
“Area open will be opened soon. Students, please get ready! ”
Then, in the area where the students were standing, the wall slowly descended. All walls can be raised and lowered. When necessary, they could even be raised to a height of over a hundred meters and could block most monsters. The open area where the students faced monsters was about ten kilometers wide.
Seeing the many monsters attacking them from afar, many students felt their palms sweat. Even if they are the chosen people of the future—elit and the pillars of humanity. They are indeed flowers that were raised in greenhouses. They had never experienced a real life or death battle. Although it was not a real life or death battle at the moment, it was still terrifying.
Among these people, some were nervous, while others forced themselves to remain calm. Only Chu Yunfan remained stable. He had been in battle for an entire month. He had even faced a swarm of large-scale monsters that could break through Calm Ocean City. He remained calm despite his previous state, not to mention this horde of monsters that were not of a high level. There's nothing to be afraid of.
“Everything, be careful. The most important thing in the face of swarm monsters is not to panic. Monsters are nothing to fear. They're starving all winter. Don't freak. It will not be a big deal,” Chu Yunfan said.
The surrounding people were all from Yunning District, and they were even students from No High School. 13. Everyone nodded in earnest.
Without giving them a chance to say anything more, the herd of monsters pounced on them. Since the army deliberately unleashed them, this batch of monsters was not stopped.
For a moment, thousands of monsters and thousands of students collided violently within a ten kilometer radius. It was like two waves colliding with each other.
On the city wall, Xue Bailong, who did not show his face, stood on top. Beside him was Mr. Lin from the Education Bureau.
“These students have never seen much blood. Looks like you have to look after them, Lieutenant Xue,” said Mr. Lin with a smile.
Xue Bailong said, “Nobody was born to see blood. Compared to the recruits below me, these students are all extremely outstanding. Once they see the blood, they will adapt quickly. I have already ordered people to kill as many powerful monsters as possible. There will be no big problem.”
When Xue Bailong said this, he slightly furrowed his brows. For some reason, he had always felt that Mr. Lin was a strange man that made him feel uncomfortable. However, he could not explain the reason. After all, Mr. Lin represented the Education Bureau of Calm Ocean City and the Federation Government. The army and government had a long history of cooperation, and Xue Bailong was not allowed to destroy it.
“Yes, the tip of one's sword is sharpened by oneself. We all understand this principle,” Lin said with a faint smile.
His gaze swept across the battlefield, and in the middle of the battlefield, the figure holding the sword was extremely eye-catching.
