The Monster is Coming

Chapter 322 In Reality, Guarding the Northern Border

The Primordial Altar.

Qi Sheng's mind conjured up images of the Earth's Arctic monitoring station.

The moment the abnormal fluctuations appeared in the Kuroshio Rift, his consciousness had already jumped to Earth.

I followed the entire process of the Kuroshio Rift gradually expanding, including the subsequent descent of evil forces.

However, after analysis, it was found that the Kuroshio force that descended upon Earth posed no threat.

This is because the troops that arrived this time were only exploratory units outside the core Black Tide system, and their combat power was limited.

This invasion can be understood as similar to the Soul Return Clan releasing soul beasts into a small world.

Besides being used to investigate the situation in small worlds, if the strength of a small world is very low, exploration units will also devour the life in that world to grow rapidly before the arrival of the war legion, until they devour the entire world.

Then, the energy gained from devouring the world is carried back to the Black Tide Legion and re-initialized into the lowest-level exploration unit.

Normally, they would throw billions of them into the small worlds where the Black Tide Rifts had already appeared, not caring how many Black Tide died.

Most seeds will be destroyed in the world of the docking rift, but some seeds will grow rapidly in the smaller world and eventually become a catastrophe that destroys the world.

However, this is not the true fighting force of the Black Tide; its combat strength is pitifully weak.

For the Black Tide, an invasion that didn't even involve the appearance of evil spirit warriors was not enough to be called a war.

It's like humans casually scattering a handful of grass seeds into the wilderness.

It doesn't matter whether I live or die.

Millions of seeds were scattered by the wind, the vast majority of which landed on rocks, in deserts, and in saline-alkali lands (stronger small worlds), where they withered and died silently.

But if just one or two happen to fall into soil suitable for growth, they can frantically absorb nutrients and transform into a raging tidal wave of thorns that devours the entire field in the blink of an eye.

And Earth is but an insignificant one among countless worlds where seeds have been sown.

It doesn't even qualify as a "battlefield" yet.

The Kuroshio Seeds are slightly stronger than Earth's, but the Lunar Eclipse Clan is capable of handling them.

There is absolutely no need to worry about this level of intrusion.

It is still too early for Earth to be officially invaded by the forces of the Black Tide War.

However, this time an unexpected situation arose.

The Black Tide's invading forces had already reached the players before the Lunar Eclipse Clan made their move.

If we don't intervene, this player is doomed.

Earth is his source of soldiers, and this act is undoubtedly an act of stealing his base. Qi Sheng will naturally not sit idly by.

His choice was to grant players a temporary and forced transformation into their player bodies.

This part of the player's body will later become a movable module, allowing them to travel between the two worlds.

When the player is in the real world, this power will be fed back from the monster world into reality.

When players log in and enter the monster world, this power will be extracted by the Challenger System and sent to the monster world.

As long as the player has enough sacrificial power, their physical body will be completely reshaped into the player's body.

One body travels between the monster world and reality.

However, some aspects of this setting are still under development.

This is only a temporary opening for players.

However, he did not intend to take back this power, since the players had already spent their sacrificial power, so he would leave it.

However, he will not grant this player the permission to exchange sacrificial power for the power of the player's body in the future.

It will be unlocked to all players on the day the Black Tide officially invades.

……

Earth, Arctic Space Monitoring Station.

As the analysis scanned, detailed information about the black mist life form appeared in Yu Chuan's mind.

【Black Tide: Blood Slaves (Evil Spirits)】

Hunting level: 21.

Target Description: Wandering explorers outside the core system of the Black Tide Legion, endowed with moderate intelligence, responsible for exploring different small worlds that have been connected to the Black Tide Rift, investigating detailed data and transmitting it to the Black Tide Legion, which then analyzes the data and dispatches invading forces.

……

When Yu Chuan saw the words "Kuroshio", he was dumbfounded.

The sudden crisis caught him completely off guard.

Before launching the game, he had checked the spatial fluctuation monitoring data for that day and found that everything was normal and there were no abnormalities such as spatial rifts.

Unexpectedly, just three hours after the game was launched, a sudden crisis occurred in the real world.

Even more outrageous is that the invading force that descended upon Earth was actually the evil Black Tide.

This monster should only exist in monster-themed games.

Faced with such a terrifying creature, he thought he was doomed.

Little did he expect that his player attributes in the monster world would be reflected in his real-world body.

This also includes the Qi and Life Souls he uses in the game.

Outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!

But there's no time to think about these things now; the evil forces have gathered their power and are attacking again.

Yu Chuan felt uncertain about whether he could win.

Based on the clues in one's mind, the percentage of game responses to reality is 4.7%.

His main life spirit energy level in the game is 33, which allows him to easily slaughter groups of level 21 monsters.

A 4.7% ratio is theoretically enough to kill an evil spirit.

But reality isn't a game; he only has one life.

When you really have to fight evil spirits, the feeling is completely different; you feel fear from the bottom of your heart.

But the evil forces of the Black Tide didn't give him time to mentally prepare himself.

The Black Tide Blood Slave's body suddenly collapsed, then transformed into a dark shadow and rapidly approached.

Yu Chuan's pupils suddenly contracted, and he clenched his right fist, unleashing a burst of crimson-gold energy from his pores like a volcanic eruption.

His entire right arm was instantly enveloped by compressed qi.

"roll!"

A punch was thrown, and the air exploded.

The moment the fist collided with the claw blade, the Black Tide Blood Slave's entire arm exploded into black mist.

But its offensive did not end, and the re-condensed mist claws attacked again.

After their initial encounter, Yu Chuan's confidence soared.

He already knew the answer to the question he had just asked.

This evil black tide is no match for him.

This is combat experience gained from fighting against Bliss Warriors of similar strength in Ah Le's training camp.

Whether we can win or not can be known from the first contact.

My physical attributes are far superior to those of my opponent.

Once again, Yu Chuan shattered the black tide's evil claws, giving it no chance to catch its breath.

He stepped closer, the ground cracking beneath his feet, and his right leg swept across like a battle axe, his inner energy condensing into a crimson blade of light at the tip of his leg.

Click!

Although the kick landed on the misty body, it produced a crisp sound of bones breaking.

The evil spirit's knees shattered, and its body collapsed to its knees. Yu Chuan grabbed its head with one hand and slammed it to the ground.

With a quick tightening of his fingers, Ah Le's "hair-pulling" skill, honed to perfection in the training camp, was passively triggered. With a sudden tug, he tore apart the head formed by the evil mist.

Then, he raised his right foot and delivered a powerful kick to the lower body of the Black Tide Evil.

This is also a special skill taught at Ah Le's training camp: the "Child-Severing Kick".

Then came a series of slaps, a slam, a roll into the ground... a series of smooth combos.

Yu Chuan unleashed his inner energy, and crimson flames erupted from the evil spirit's seven orifices, causing its body to completely disintegrate.

After the battle ended, Yu Chuan shook his hand and stood up. The black mist turned into ashes and dissipated under the scorching of the qi.

Just then, a challenger's prompt sounded in his mind:
[Challenger's Hint: Defeat the Black Tide Evil Slave to gain Evolution Points...]

Upon hearing the prompt, Yu Chuan's expression became complicated, and countless guesses flashed through his mind.

He couldn't understand why the evil spirits from the game Monster World would appear in reality.

Also, why is it that my power in the game can be fed back into reality by consuming sacrificial energy?

There were no clues to be found for any of the questions.

His gaze turned outside.

With the attribute feedback from the player's body, the darkness was no longer an obstacle, but became exceptionally clear.

The black fog could be seen churning in the distance and continuing to spread.

It attacked in the direction he was in.

At this time, the outer wall of the observation station had been destroyed, and he was not wearing protective clothing. His exposed skin was exposed to the extreme cold of -87°C, but he did not feel the slightest bit of cold.

On his skin, crimson energy circulated around his body under his will.

With each breath, his lungs felt like a furnace, the exhaled white breath condensing into tiny ice crystals in the air, only to evaporate completely upon contact with the protective energy.

With the support of the Qi, the muscle fibers became as tough as alloy, the heartbeat was like the pounding of a war drum, and one could hear the blood surging in the blood vessels, bringing an almost ferocious sense of power.

This was the first time he had experienced the wonderful feeling that only exists in games in real life.

Although this body is far inferior to the self in the game, it brings terrifying combat power that transcends common sense.

In the real world, they are even more powerful than the "super gene warriors" who are known as the strongest humans.

At this moment, the black mist in the distance surged and spread like a tide, melting the ice and snow wherever it passed.

Several evil spirits of various shapes emerged from the black mist, gradually separating. Some resembled rotting giant wolves, while others were twisted humanoid figures with blood-red evil crystals embedded in their bodies, exuding an extremely evil aura.

If this kind of monster were in a horror movie, it would easily crush a group of main characters.

Its near-immortality means that even a nuclear bomb cannot completely destroy it; it can still reshape its evil body through the rules of the Black Tide.

But now... his power comes from the monster world, and he also has the added advantage of being able to "extract" it by killing monsters.

Evil spirits are not necessarily invincible.

A horde of evil spirits roared in from afar, their speed increasing rapidly.

Yu Chuan did not dodge.

He raised his hand, his five fingers spread, and crimson-gold qi condensed in his palm, transforming into a blazing qi longsword.

laugh!
As the blade sliced ​​through the air, the first malevolent creature to approach was cleaved in two in mid-air. Before the bodies could reassemble, they were vaporized into mist by the intense heat of the qi.

The dissipating mist was extracted and disappeared in the next second, and the challenger's prompt then rang in his mind.

The second evil spirit attacked from the side, its sharp bone spurs piercing straight into the waist and abdomen.

Yu Chuan turned to the side, his left hand forming a claw, and suddenly gripped its head, pulling hard with all five fingers.

boom!
The evil spirit's head exploded, turning into black mist that spread outwards.

The third evil spirit attacked from the left, its corrupt mouth opening to spew out a foul-smelling, sticky liquid.

Yu Chuan even turned his head to look, sensing the approaching gale, but the image that flashed through his mind was the habitual mental image of the evil spirit of Bliss attacking from the side.

As he shifted to the side, he swung his sword backhand, his inner energy transforming into an arc of blade light that severed the slime and the evil spirit together, turning it into the challenger's notification sound that echoed in his mind.

More and more evil black tides were attacking from the front, and the originally spreading black mist gathered and attacked his direction.

"Fight!"

Although he didn't know exactly what was going on, all he had to do now was survive the engulfing Black Tide.

With no other stations within a 500-kilometer radius, he had to fight alone.

Secondly, while surviving, he also had to protect the security of the site's database.

An unknown error has occurred on the network, preventing information from being transmitted. It is still unknown whether the chip implanted in the Lunar Eclipse Clan at the back of the neck has transmitted this situation.

He must ensure data security.

This was also the strangest thing to him.

Under normal circumstances, the Arctic monitoring station's database maintains an encrypted, real-time connection with the Earth Alliance headquarters.

Once the bio-key is activated, the data signal can bypass conventional network protocols and travel through an invisible channel constructed by the Lunar Eclipse Clan using Earth's magnetic field, directly reaching the equatorial space station and being transmitted to the Lunar Eclipse Clan and other races of the Earth Alliance via a repeater buried under the ice.

This emergency response system should be able to ignore any conventional interference.

Even the electromagnetic pulse caused by a nuclear explosion or the particle storm from a solar flare cannot stop this transmission.

But now, it cannot be activated or used.

Even the biometric key failed, displaying a "verification failed" message, as if the password had been suddenly changed.

His body was unable to function as a key to activate emergency mode.

This might be some kind of unknown interference brought about by the arrival of the Kuroshio Current.

He glanced at the approaching black mist in the distance.

He had more than ten seconds before the evil black tide got close.

I've decided to give it another try; perhaps the network has been restored by now.

He strode over to the still-intact control panel, where a red warning light was flashing.

His fingers flew across the keyboard, attempting to bypass the system lock and directly access the backup transmission protocol.

However, the pop-up message displayed: "Enablement failed."

The database firewall seemed to be completely locked down by some external force, all commands were bounced back, and he had never seen the error codes jumping on the screen before.

Undeterred, he placed his left palm on the biometric sensor again.

As the skin comes into contact with the cold metal, the bio-key's microcurrent scan spreads from the fingertips to the wrist.

[Biometric key re-authentication...failed]

"Depend on!"

The biological key of the Lunar Eclipse Clan is bound to their genes, and the key will never become invalid unless the individual dies.

This is precisely the significance of his existence: to be activated as a last resort in the event of an emergency.

But now, the system seems to be denying his existence, completely rejecting his permissions.

Even more strangely, the database's physical isolation protocol was also triggered.

However, the database is not connected to the Earth Alliance. While the Kuroshio Current may be able to block the transmission of signal networks, how could it possibly directly modify the underlying logical information in the database?

He suddenly stood up and ripped open the metal cover on the side of the control panel.

The circuit board was intact, but the indicator lights on the main chip were all off, as if they had been forced into a sleep state by some kind of instruction.

My finger was pressed on the restart button, three seconds, five seconds, ten seconds... but the control panel remained unresponsive.

This is like having a state-of-the-art biometric lock installed on your home's security door; theoretically, only your fingerprint and the Earth Alliance's security center have the authority to open it.

When robbers come, they can break in by picking locks, damaging things, or even changing the locks.

However, upon unlocking the door, it was discovered that the lock displayed "locked from the inside".

The problem is, there's no one at home.

This access was definitely not locked from within the Earth Alliance; the problem clearly lies outside.

But he couldn't find a reasonable logical explanation.

They wanted to continue testing, but a chilling wind had already swept in, and a tide of evil spirits was approaching.

He didn't have time to continue testing.

"kill!"

He turned around and roared, trying to bolster his spirits.

Just like back in Ah Le's training camp, they charged headlong into the black tide of evil spirits. The cold wind howled, and the black mist churned.

Yu Chuan's figure tore a crimson-gold trail through the horde of evil spirits. His aura erupted like a volcano, and with each step he took, the ground melted into charred footprints under the intense heat.

The three-headed, rotten wolf demon lunged from the left, right, and center, its fangs dripping corrosive slime.

He spun around, and the Qi-infused longsword re-condensed in his hand, drawing a semicircle, its crimson blade light blooming like a new moon.

scoff!

The rotten wolf's body disintegrated in mid-air, and its black blood evaporated before it even hit the ground.

At this moment, a humanoid evil spirit roared and condensed its mist claws from below the black mist to attack. Yu Chuan raised his foot, and his combat boots, imbued with qi, stomped down.

Click!

The evil spirit's head exploded like a watermelon, and its headless body staggered two steps before being sent flying by his whip kick, knocking away three evil spirits.

The black tide of evil spirits surged in like a tidal wave, and he roared through gritted teeth:

"come."

The blade flashed like a dragon, each strike bringing forth a cloud of black mist. Rotten flesh and black blood burned amidst the bursts of qi, filling the air with an indescribable, strange odor.

Yu Chuan, completely risking everything, fought with his life on the line.

During this time, it kept opening its mouth and swallowing large gulps.

The rate at which his internal energy was being consumed was too rapid, and he realized that his internal energy could not last long and that he had to replenish his external energy by consuming internal energy.

Unlike in the monster world, where every breath brings a rich replenishment of blood and energy.

In the real world, breathing doesn't provide much energy at all.

He tried to open his spatial bag, hoping to retrieve a few bottles of potions stored inside to replenish his strength and energy.

But a prompt popped into my mind the next second:
[Challenger's Note: Space inventory access is not enabled; attempt failed.]

"Depend on!"

However, the number of evil spirits in the Black Tide shows no signs of decreasing.

laugh!
With a flash of light, a malevolent creature resembling a rotting giant wolf was cleaved in two at the waist, its black blood splattering onto the snow and emitting a sizzling, corrosive sound.

But the next second, the severed body began to writhe in the black mist and reconnect.

"Damn it, this is never going to end!"

Yu Chuan spat out a mouthful of blood and cleaved the bone spur that was attacking from the side with a single stroke.

A sharp bone spur grazed his cheek, leaving a shallow bloodstain on his cheekbone.

Meanwhile, the evil spirits seized the opportunity to pounce, their rotting mouths wide open, spewing out black sludge like arrows.

Yu Chuan suddenly turned to the side, the slime grazing his shoulder and landing on the metal wreckage of the station behind him, instantly melting a hole the size of a bowl.

His pupils contracted sharply, his left hand formed a claw, and crimson-gold energy condensed into a cone in his palm, fiercely stabbing it into the chest of the attacking evil spirit.

puff!

The evil spirit's body convulsed violently, and the blood-red evil crystal embedded in its chest shattered.

Black mist gushed out from the crack, and the evil body quickly deflated like a leaky sack, finally collapsing into mist and transforming into a challenger's prompt.

However, even more evil spirits have surrounded them, and they cannot be completely eradicated.

A humanoid evil spirit suddenly attacked from behind, its sharp bone claws aimed straight for the back of the heart.

Exhausted from dealing with the situation, Yu Chuan sensed the wind, but it was too late to turn around.

Tear!

The bone claws left five deep, bone-exposing wounds on its back.

The moment the blood gushed out, the qi suddenly surged violently, and crimson flames spread along the bone claw, burning the evil spirit's entire arm into charcoal.

The evil spirit let out a shrill roar, and Yu Chuan suddenly turned around and slashed, crushing the evil spirit into a challenger.

Yu Chuan groaned, feeling a burning pain in the wound on his back.

A violent emotion suddenly exploded from the bottom of my heart.

"At worst, I'll just die."

In his desperate situation, he lost his fear, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his blood-stained teeth looking particularly ferocious in the moonlight.

boom!
The internal energy was compressed wildly within his body, and then erupted like a volcano.

Crimson flames erupted from every pore, turning him into a burning, blood-red war god.

The qi on the blade condensed to its maximum, and Yu Chuan roared as he charged into the horde of evil spirits, the blade flashing wherever it passed.

puff!puff!puff!
Several evil spirits simultaneously dissipated into mist, at the cost of his skin beginning to crack, with blood seeping from the fissures.

This is a true battle that will ignite your life.

The resource consumption of warrior-type players differs from that of magic-type players.

In the Star Pulse system, the characteristics of the Soul are divided into two types: passive and active.

The ways in which active life essence is consumed are different and can be divided into three types.

The first type consumes mental energy, represented by characters like Mo Yan, Ben Lei, and Ying Shou Yao.

The second type consumes Qi and Blood, which is the Qi and Blood energy stored in one's own body. Each attack will reduce the health bar.

Relying on the efficient recovery brought about by enhanced physical fitness, the sustain of a fighting style that consumes Qi and Blood can be several times higher than that that that consumes Mental Energy.

The third type is a mixed consumption, which consumes both mental energy and physical energy.

In the monster world, he takes a melee approach, which consumes his health and energy.

During the release of Qi, life force is continuously being consumed.

In the monster world, the feeling of losing health is not strong.

But in reality, it's equivalent to fighting a life-or-death battle.

Yu Chuan was panting heavily, his long sword, imbued with qi, dared not stop swinging, for he was completely surrounded by evil spirits.

After defeating another evil spirit, the challenger's prompt sounded again.

[Challenger's Note: Soul Level Increased.]

A torrent of intense heat exploded from my spine!

Yu Chuan roared uncontrollably, his head thrown back, and the crimson-gold patterns beneath his skin suddenly shone brightly.

The previously depleted vital energy revived like a volcano, gushing out from every pore and forming a burning ring of flames around the body.

The new energy flowed into his body, giving his exhausted body some strength.

Although the crisis was not resolved, it gave him the strength to continue fighting.

"This is outrageous! Killing evil spirits in real life has become an upgrade."

While he was internally complaining, the killing continued.

Yu Chuan's breathing became heavier and heavier, and with each swing of his sword, he could feel his vital energy rapidly draining away.

"It's not enough."

He suddenly opened his mouth, his throat gaping like a black hole, trying to draw energy from the air.

But the spiritual energy on Earth was so scarce that he felt despair.

In the monster world, every breath is like drinking strong liquor. The rich energy of blood and qi flows into the lungs through the nasal cavity, instantly transforming into surging blood and qi, which can also be transformed into qi and released out of the body at any time.

But on Earth, the spiritual energy in the air is as dry as a desert.

Although he hadn't activated the Eagle-Headed Demon's senses, he could indirectly sense through the Qi he consumed that the spiritual energy here was so thin that it was almost impossible to detect.

After inhaling it, I didn't even feel much change in my blood and qi.

He can only obtain more qi and blood energy through high-frequency breathing.

But it's still a drop in the ocean.

"Hold!"

Yu Chuan gritted his teeth, swept his blade horizontally, and cut a charging evil spirit in half at the waist. Black blood splattered on his face, carrying a corrosive burning sensation.

He didn't bother wiping his face; with a backhand slash, he split open the head of another evil spirit, shattering it into mist.

But the movements are much slower than before.

The light of the protective aura was fading, and the longsword formed by the condensed aura was also becoming dim.

Every exertion felt like squeezing the body, which was almost exhausted, until not a single drop of extra blood and energy could be extracted.

The Black Tide evil spirit seemed to sense his weakness, and its attacks became even more frenzied, with rotting claws, sharp bone spurs, and spitting venom attacking from all directions.

Yu Chuan's body grew weaker with each collision, a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes became even more crazed.

"Damn it, let's see who dies first!"

In this desperate situation, Yu Chuan completely lost the will to protect himself.

I have only one thought now: to fight with all my might, and every extra kill is a bonus.

Die like a warrior.

He squeezed out the last bit of vital energy in his body, and his inner energy erupted with a roar. Crimson flames burned to their limit on the blade as he launched a resolute charge against the surging tide of evil spirits.

This scene, once frozen in time, possesses an extremely strong sense of artistic conception.

On a bitterly cold night, the black tide surged.

Yu Chuan's figure left a crimson afterimage across the snowfield, like a burning meteorite, recklessly crashing into the overwhelming darkness.

Although his body was like a candle flickering in the wind, almost completely depleted.

But that splash of crimson was more dazzling than ever before, the final, boiling surge of life force being squeezed out.

Three colors intertwine in the picture.

Crimson represents a lone charge.

Black is a dark, overwhelming tide that engulfs everything.

White is the color of snow falling on the frigid snowfields.

The three colors intertwine to create a painting that evokes the imagery of "resolutely facing death."

Footsteps shatter the frozen earth, blades tear through the cold wind.

The crimson-gold flames, compressed to their extreme, erupted with a deafening roar, propelling Yu Chuan's body into a fiery line that traversed the black tide.

The instant the blade struck.

boom!
The collision of crimson and darkness created a visible shockwave, causing all evil spirits within a radius of over a hundred meters to collapse, and the black mist was briefly cleared away, leaving a blank space.

But Yu Chuan finally reached his limit.

He knelt on one knee, his protective aura dissipating, exposing his body to the bitter cold, barely managing to stay upright and avoid falling.

But my vision was already blurred, and I had a constant ringing in my ears.

The black fog in the distance was still churning, as if something even more terrifying was approaching.

"Heh, I never thought I could become a battlefield god of war in the real world... cough cough, as expected, fighting against the Black Tide... requires the help of strong teammates."

At this point, Yu Chuan could no longer distinguish between reality and the game.

He even felt that the scene of his fiercely killing the evil spirit was just a mental illusion he had before he died.

He grinned, his mouth stained with blood, and laughed hoarsely.

He then collapsed to the ground, unable to support his body any longer.

Yu Chuan's consciousness was also teetering on the brink of unconsciousness.

Before his vision went completely black, he vaguely saw a black tide surging nearby, and the twisted, malevolent figures rushed towards him like a tidal wave, engulfing his body and quickly devouring it.

Even the Black Tide, which could easily devour metal, could not easily break through his body's defenses.

But he was powerless to resist and knew that death was inevitable.

Just then, the sky suddenly brightened.

Three blinding blue-white beams of light pierced the sky, like divine spears, crashing down from the clouds.

boom!
The moment the beam of light struck the black tide, the evil spirits within a radius of several kilometers didn't even have time to scream before they were vaporized in the extreme heat, leaving not even ashes behind.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar came from the sky.

Three blue warships tore through the clouds and swooped down.

Their shapes are ferocious like blades, their hulls are covered with complex spiritual patterns, and dark blue energy patterns flow across their surfaces.

Instead of traditional engine nozzles, there are distorted spatial ripples around the hull, making it seem as if gravity does not exist during flight.

The killing begins.

Dozens of honeycomb-shaped launch ports suddenly appeared on the bottom of the foremost warship.

next second.

Countless fine beams of blue and white light poured down like a torrential rain, each one piercing precisely into the head of an evil spirit.

The evil spirits that are devouring Yu Chuan will be killed one by one.

The evil spirits that were struck didn't even have a chance to struggle. Their bodies instantly froze, then shattered like fragile glass into countless ice crystals, eventually turning back into black mist and merging back into the black tide.

The warship on the left was even more brutal, with its bow suddenly splitting open to reveal a massive pulse cannon.

The moment it started charging, the surrounding space began to distort.

The standard is precisely the central area where the black fog energy is most concentrated.

boom!
A crimson beam of light, more than ten meters in diameter, swept across the distant area where the Black Tide evil spirits gathered. Wherever it passed, whether it was evil spirits, frozen soil, or snow, everything was evaporated, leaving a scorched ravine.

However, the Black Tide's unique properties make it not so easy to completely defeat ordinary forces.

The dissipated black mist quickly regrouped.

But the warships' second round of bombardment followed immediately.

In the third and fourth rounds... warships cannot be extracted and absorbed like Yu Chuan could by killing them.

Even the lowest-level Black Tide Evil Spirits possess near-immortality, requiring only a minimal amount of energy to regenerate after each death.

The warships can only keep destroying it, keeping it in a constant state of healing.

This bombardment lasted for 48 rounds before the black tide power that had descended upon Earth was completely defeated.

At this time, the permafrost at the Arctic station was covered with crisscrossing, scorched gullies.

The pulse cannon was still radiating heat, and the smell of burning lingered in the air.

The roar of the warships gradually subsided, leaving only the low hum of the energy circuits cooling down.

"Initiate full-area scan".

An order was issued from the moon.

The leading blue and white warships deployed in a circular array at their bottoms, with dark blue ripples spreading out like waves, covering the entire battlefield.

Where the ripples passed, the microbial activity beneath the permafrost layer was marked as green dots.

Residual radiation is represented by a fluctuating orange parameter.

The scan lasted for a full seventeen minutes, but no trace of the Black Tide's power was found.

"Repair the environment."

New instructions were issued from the moon.

Two of the warships simultaneously turned their bows and fired silvery-white nano-mist at the riddled glacier.

Nanoclusters begin to reorganize the damaged permafrost structure.

An ionospheric generator was deployed into the atmosphere to neutralize residual radiation energy from the battle.

The last warship silently hovered above Yu Chuan's head.

The bottom of the ship slid open silently, and a soft white light curtain descended.

Within the light screen, Yu Chuan's battered body slowly rose up, ascending towards the interior of the warship.

A figure appeared from the entrance passage of the warship, his eyes fixed on Yu Chuan, who was already seriously injured and on the verge of death, as seen in the beam of light.

The man was wearing a silver uniform with a Lunar Eclipse Clan badge on his chest.
