Chapter 475: Fierce Battle "Fall"

Boom. Boom——!

The continuous explosions shook the entire New Argo urban area, smoke and flames spread rapidly, and the air was filled with a strong smell of scorched earth.

The buildings on both sides of the street were shaken by the roar, and the windows of the crumbling high-rise buildings exploded one after another, and fragments fell like a rainstorm.

The invasion of the Chaos creatures plunged the city into unprecedented chaos, and at the intersection near the purple light column, a fierce defensive battle was in full swing.

"We can't let those guys break through the siege!"

A police officer equipped with a mechanical skeleton shouted with gritted teeth, and the cold sweat and dust on his forehead mixed into dirty traces.

While giving orders, the police officer quickly moved to the back of the abandoned vehicle, and with the help of holographic glasses and mechanical skeletons to aim, he locked the Chaos creature in front, and pulled the trigger, letting the Gauss rifle in his hand spit out dazzling blue flames.

In addition to this police officer, there were more than a dozen patrolmen and their respective synthetic partners gathered here.

They have tried their best to use abandoned vehicles to shelter themselves, but they know that once these ruins can no longer provide them with cover, their lives and deaths can only be "left to fate".

"Captain! We can't hold on any longer!"

At this time, the voice of a patrolman was full of anxiety. Even with the help of mechanical skeletons, his steps were no longer so steady.

The pressure increased suddenly, and the chaotic creatures surged like a tide, oppressing the defense line wantonly, causing the patrolman's mental state to be close to collapse.

Each chaotic creature is extremely threatening. Their skin is pale and has a strange purple hue. The huge claws similar to crabs and shrimps are waving in the air. Sharp blade-like bone spurs and bone shields form a solid protection on their bodies.

These guys seem to have been fully prepared to enter the physical universe. Their body structure is extremely hard and their resistance is extremely strong.

Facing such a powerful enemy, the firepower of the patrolmen is almost negligible. All they can do is to desperately delay time and buy a little breathing space for the people to evacuate.

Because the pressure on patrol officers is extremely high, especially those young people who have just joined the police force for a few years or even a few months, they have reached the edge of collapse.

And looking at the chaotic creatures that are far beyond common sense, with distorted appearance, and the invisible psychic influence, it has a continuous impact on their psychology.

"Retreat, Captain, if you don't retreat, it will be too late! We will cover your back!"

A synthetic man with a pierced abdomen and bright red "blood" flowing out also persuaded in an anxious tone.

However, the facial expression of this synthetic man did not show any frown or grinning due to the injury.

After all, the body functions of police synthetics are much stronger than ordinary humans.

And as the number of chaotic creatures increases and approaches, they see that there is no way out. If they don't make a decision, they may not even be able to maintain the only retreat channel.

Above them, there are hundreds of unmanned patrol aircraft, and the array formed by them launches precise strikes on the chaotic wave, and laser beams and high-explosive ammunition fall like a rainstorm.

Their mission is to do their best to consume the number of chaotic creatures. However, facing such a huge wave of creatures, no matter how accurate and dense they are, the effect of the attack is also insignificant.

Moreover, the chaotic creatures are not without air defense measures.

Whoosh-whoosh-! !

One after another, psychic beams emitting dazzling pink light swept out from the back of the chaotic creatures and accurately cut through the night sky.

Their trajectory is like a cunning venomous snake, aiming directly at the drone formation in the air.

In an instant, hundreds of drones fell from the sky as if they were crushed by an invisible giant hand, and most of the formation was directly destroyed.

A few seconds ago, the patrol aircraft team that was still flying in the sky, now only a few dozen were left struggling to maintain the front line.

! !

The patrol police and the synth partners were also suppressed by the opponent's firepower output and could not move a step.

The firepower from the chaotic creatures covered the entire battlefield. There was a tragic fire and smoke between the sky and the ground. All the patrolmen could do was to duck their heads to avoid becoming the next target.

"Ah--!"

Suddenly, a sharp and shrill scream rang out.

A younger patrolman was hit by a psychic beam before he could dodge, which made him fall to the ground with his arms around his chest in pain.

What happened next made the guys around him feel completely terrified.

The patrolman's face began to "wither" at a speed visible to the naked eye. His skin instantly became dry and cracked from the youthful luster, and even cracked with shocking lines.

And his body also shrank rapidly, as if a balloon was suddenly punctured by someone, and his vitality was completely drained in a few seconds.

In the end, the patrolman's eyes were empty and desperate, leaving only a body that was as dry as a dead tree and fell to the ground.

"Captain!"

Seeing this scene, the surviving patrolmen all showed fear.

Their hands were shaking so much that they could hardly hold their guns. They all looked at the police officer, waiting for their commander to give a decisive order.

The police officer also knew that their firepower and defense were no match for those terrifying chaotic creatures.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his fear, and used all his strength to stabilize his voice and gave the order:

"Retreat! The synths will cover the rear!"

"Yes! Sir!"

The synths who received the order immediately took action.

"They" stood up without hesitation, faced the wave of chaos, and launched a suicide attack with guns raised.

Even though "their" body strength is higher than that of humans, facing the psychic beam is still of no avail. All the synthetic partners can do is to provide the patrols with a brief opportunity to retreat.

boom--!

A synth overloaded a condensed matter battery, turning several chaotic creatures into flames and fragments.

Their sacrifice is cold, mechanical, but full of silent tragedy.

However, they also allowed all patrol officers to successfully seize this short window and evacuate quickly.

The figures of the patrol officers disappeared into the ruins and smoke, with endless guilt and gratitude to their synthetic comrades in their hearts.

Soon, the dozen patrol policemen entered a dark and narrow alley.

"Huhu."

The sound of rapid breathing was especially clear in the alleyway.

Even with the assistance of mechanical skeletons, everyone's face was full of exhaustion and tension. Sweat fell from their foreheads, leaving dark traces on the dirty ground.

Some patrol officers leaned against the wall, adjusting their breathing; others clenched their weapons, their eyes constantly wandering between the alley and the sky, alert to the pursuit of chaotic creatures.

Captain Duke Oren, who was in charge of leading them, also looked solemn.

He opened the communication, tried to contact the headquarters, and issued a request in as calm a voice as possible:

"This is Captain Duke Oren! Requesting latest orders and assistance from transport units! Repeat, we need support!"

"Hey. Here it is."

However, what he received in response was an anxious murmur.

The noise was intermittent, and the other party's content was completely unclear. The signal indicator on the communication device was also flashing erratically.

It seems that the power of subspace has begun to penetrate, interfering with the normal operation of electronic equipment, and even beginning to distort and change New Argo in the physical universe.

"Fuck it."

Duke cursed under his breath and quickly checked the status of the communicator, but made no progress.

Police communications were interfered with and blocked, but they did not have higher authority to directly talk to the Sons of Man and seek support. After all, the current situation was obviously beyond the capabilities of ordinary police officers.

"Captain. What should we do?"

A young patrolman stepped forward and asked cautiously, with unconcealable panic in his tone and a little confusion in his eyes.

"Are you leaving the city to seek refuge? Or?"

Other patrol officers also turned their attention to Duke, hoping that their commander could point them to a clear path in the chaos.

Duke took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

This work is compiled and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

He glanced at the team members who looked tired but still full of hope, and then said in a deep voice:

"Our duty is to cover the evacuation of the people. Now that the task has been completed, leaving the city is an option. But now the roads may be full of those bastards. The risk of rash action is too great. If you are not careful, everyone will be wiped out.

We need more intelligence and a temporary safe zone."

Duke's tone was firm and powerful, like an anchor, temporarily stabilizing people's hearts.

And while he was talking, he used the AR auxiliary function of the holographic glasses to scan the surrounding map data.

When Duke discovered that this place was only more than 500 meters away from the Chinese and Western Hospital where his wife worked, he marked it on the holographic glasses of the police officers and continued:

"Listen up, the Central Hospital is ahead. The Atlas security team there has stronger fire support than the entire police station. In theory, this is the safest place nearby."

Duke's voice was low and calm, but it conveyed an unquestionable authority:

“When we go there, we can get shelter on the one hand, and on the other hand we can assist in their defense, and try to hold on until the main force of the Sons of Man arrives.

Now, follow me! "

After saying that, he quickly hung up the hard-light rifle back in his hand, checked the magazine again, and then took the lead and rushed towards the hospital.

"Yes, sir!"

The team members responded in unison, their spirits instantly lifted.

They also organized their weapons and equipment, suppressed their emotions to a minimum, and followed Duke's footsteps.

There was a kind of determination on everyone's face. They understood that the most important thing at the moment was to complete the tasks assigned by their superiors, rather than being slowed down by fear.

After rushing out of the alley, they continued to use the cover of abandoned vehicles and buildings to move towards the Central Hospital, which was only one street away.

Along the way, Duke and his players had good luck.

Although there are occasional encounters with a few scattered chaos creatures, these monsters do not appear in groups, but act alone.

With the patrol officers' tacit cooperation and weapons and equipment, they quickly eliminated the threat and tried to keep a low profile to avoid attracting more enemy attention.

After turning around the intersection, bypassing the huge building that blocked their view, they came to the street where the Central Hospital is located.

! ! !

Unconcealable shock and disbelief instantly appeared on everyone's face.

"This is impossible!"

Duke Oren blurted out involuntarily.

Because the scene in front of me is really "unbelievable"——

Just outside the hospital not far away, three "Children of Mankind" were approaching step by step, launching an attack on the main entrance of the Central Hospital.

Bang-bang-bang-bang!

The huge roar of the bolt guns echoed in the streets, deafening.

"They" moved steadily and with undisguised murderous intent, and every shot could cause a low-intensity explosion.

At the same time, the low and hoarse conversation of the three "Sons of Man" also reached the ears of the patrolmen:

"Hahaha! The people of the false emperor deserve to die!"

"It's true that they deserve to die, but they should be ravaged first, so that it will be fun, brother."

"I will tear off their ****, and then give their souls and bodies to my God first, hahaha!!"

"They" were full of madness and ridicule, and the unique metallic voice made Duke and his team members feel depressed.

No matter which feature, it shows that the three giants who attacked the central hospital are indeed "the descendants of the Emperor", that is, Astartes.

After a brief shock, Duke and his patrolmen began to notice that there was something wrong with the appearance of the three "Sons of Man".

The main color of "their" power armor is still purple, but unlike the "serious" Sons of Man, the surface of these armors is full of weird decorations.

The dense spikes, the metal engravings stained with blood, the human heads hanging on the shoulder armor and the skinned human skin logo, all exude a disgusting smell of depravity.

One of the "Sons of Man" who was not wearing a helmet exposed his twisted and weird face to the air, and seemed to be wriggling unnaturally. The metal lines piercing his skin looked hideous and terrifying, and the scarlet eyes were full of endless madness and malice.

Could it be that he was a rebellious Son of Man?

Or was he occupied by a chaotic creature, causing a powerful existence like Astartes to become a disgusting scum?

Duke and others were confused.

At this time, the armed security guards who were affiliated with Atlas and responsible for the security of the central hospital would not be as entangled as Duke and others.

And directly demonstrated their position with actions, that is, any threat to the hospital will be completely destroyed-

Tap! Ta-ta!

The armed security let the hard light guns in their hands "full power".

Dozens of high-intensity hard light beams gushed out at the same time, like a scorching light curtain wall, covering the figures of the three "corrupted" Astartes.

The dense light beams poured down like raindrops, but those "corrupted" did not show any intention of dodging.

"Hahaha!"

"Interesting, interesting!"

They just stood there, not afraid of this fatal attack at all, but laughed arrogantly, as if exposing themselves to the "laser rain", which was an extreme mockery.
