Doomsday Stewed Salted Fish C41.1

Hey, first of all, thanks for reading my lousy Machine Translation. To be honest, I’d really like it if you guys corrected the mistakes I made. But please speak nicely and politely. My heart is not strong enough to read your too-harsh comments. Have a nice day. 🙂

Chapter 41. (1/2)

The waves of beasts surged towards the base, quickly destroying its power system and plunging the screens in each bunker into darkness.

The bunkers were located five hundred meters underground, with a special metal material insulating them from surface noise. All that could be felt was the slight tremor caused by large beasts running.

Gu Fan looked at the communication bracelet on her wrist, unsure if it was still operational.

She didn’t dare contact the Xinghe team at that moment, fearing that if they were in the midst of a battle with the beasts, any distraction could be fatal.

At this moment, all she could do was wait.

### On the Surface

The remaining eight S-class beasts evidently possessed high intelligence. They understood that their only enemies were the five S-class powerhouses of Jiangnan Base. Just as other beasts had formed alliances to attack humans, these eight S-class beasts also gathered together, surrounding Lu Ya and his team.

Humans had the advantage of agility and a variety of attack methods, while the beasts’ strengths lay in their exceptional defenses and then their abilities to counterattack with powers.

The eight S-class beasts coordinated closely, making it difficult for Lu Ya’s team to break through quickly.

Neither side could kill the other in the stalemate. During this stand-off, Lu Sheng glanced towards the base below.

To the naked eye, beasts were everywhere; A-class power users could barely hold on, and B- and C-class power users were overwhelmed by the tide of beasts.

The power users were struggling, and the situation was even worse for ordinary people.

Before the beast tide arrived, no one knew the exact number of beasts, so there was still a glimmer of hope for the base’s survival.

But now, as the army of power users retreated step by step and ordinary people were being ruthlessly torn apart, the conventional missiles had already been fired before the tide arrived. To suppress this beast tide, there was only one solution left for the base.

Using it would mean death for the humans on the ground; not using it would also mean death.

Lu Sheng looked at the four people beside him and took out a crystal core, tossing it to Lu Ya. “We’ll help you break through and execute Plan N.”

Lu Ya caught the core, feeling a heaviness in his heart upon hearing the old man’s words.

Li Zhen, He Tao, and Wang Shu exchanged glances, each taking out a crystal core and handing it to Lu Ya. “From now on, it’s up to you young folks. Go.”

Lu Ya glanced at the ground, knowing this was the only option. He accepted the crystal cores from the three veteran marshals and gave each of them five red healing blood-replenishing pills.

“These pills can heal flesh wounds, with effects comparable to A-class power users. Use them when needed.”

Li Zhen and the others nodded.

Lu Sheng asked Lu Ya, “Your aunt…”

Out of all his descendants, his daughter Lu Ying was the one he was most concerned about.

Lu Ya replied, “I gave them all. The senior officers of the four armies shared two thousand pills.”

Lu Sheng understood and, looking at his other three old comrades, said to Lu Ya, “You have five minutes.”

Next, the five of them focused their attacks on the two beasts to the south, allowing Lu Ya to break through and fly out, with an S-class black hawk pursuing him.

While attacking other S-class beasts, Li Zhen asked Lu Sheng, “Should we go help?”

Lu Sheng replied, “No need, he can handle one on his own.”

As he spoke, Lu Sheng and the other three intentionally moved towards the direction of the second ring, where the beasts were densest.

Lu Ya, meanwhile, flew out of the base zone.

The black hawk was incredibly fast, and Lu Ya had to descend into the forest several times to narrowly evade its attacks. Time ticked away as Lu Ya glanced at the countdown on his bracelet, noting there were two minutes left.

The distant roars of the beasts were almost inaudible as if all the beasts in Jiangnan had surged towards the base, leaving other areas in silence.

Suddenly, thirty-six medium-sized golden swords appeared from all directions, converging on the black hawk. The hawk let out a long cry and soared towards the night sky, but a massive golden sword, like a heavenly weapon, suddenly embedded itself in the hawk’s back, pinning it to the ground. Simultaneously, thirty-six flying swords swiftly shot towards its vital points.

The countdown on the bracelet showed one minute remaining.

A fighter jet appeared out of thin air, and Lu Ya flew into the cockpit, preparing everything as the countdown ticked down to ten seconds.

He looked towards the distant Jiangnan Base, which seemed as distant as another world.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1…

With slightly trembling fingers, he pressed the launch button.

Meanwhile, thirty seconds earlier, Lu Sheng, using his exclusive channel, notified everyone on the ground through his communicator: “A nuclear bomb will arrive in thirty seconds; everyone immediately seek cover nearby! The nuclear bomb is imminent; take cover immediately!”

“I’ll hold them off; the three of you retreat!”

With Lu Sheng’s final word, a dazzling golden light suddenly spread from him in all directions. Li Zhen and the others, tears streaming down their faces, rushed towards the ground. Meanwhile, the seven surrounding S-class beasts had not yet reacted when something suddenly descended from the sky at a low altitude, and a more intense white light swept over the land!

With a “boom,” the explosion rocked the underground bunker five hundred meters deep, causing half the people to lose their balance and fall.

Gu Fan instinctively held onto Lu Jingtian, and Uncle Wang quickly grabbed the two of them.

The ground was still trembling, and Gu Fan felt something dripping onto her neck.

She looked up.
