"This is terrifying, run!"

"Retreat! Retreat!"

A guard carrying an oversized weapon fired another shot at the black mist!

whoosh---

However, there was still no harm done!

The black fog continues to advance!

The fear that gripped their hearts caused their physical strength to drain away very quickly.

Many guards stumbled and fell during their frantic run, and were swallowed by the black fog.

...

The command center had no idea about the condition of the lower-level guards.

Because the entire command center's signal and power suddenly went out!

After a flurry of activity, Ye Rui finally activated the backup power source and restarted the system.

Afterwards, Lina and Daigo were able to enter. Without even exchanging pleasantries, Daigo anxiously said, "The base has been sealed off by the black mist!"

That wasn't all. Dr. Yamata rushed in, sweating profusely: "There's a problem with the hangar! The black mist is spreading everywhere, and the hangar crew is currently taking refuge on the Atlas! Please hoist the Atlas onto its flight path!"

"it is good!"

Lina knew the situation was urgent, and quickly called out to Ye Rui, "Transfer the control to us!"

"Yes!"

Ye Rui quickly completed the operation.

"Contact the guard platoon!"

"Izayoi said calmly."

"Yes! Third District, Third District, please respond!..."

"I'll go take a look first."

Munakata realized something was wrong, and after asking Megumi for help, he called out to Daigo and hurriedly ran downstairs.

"Atdis is transitioning to orbit two!"

Lina remained calm and composed, successfully completing all the procedures.

...

On the lower level, the guard squad tried numerous measures but found that none of them could deal with the black fog.

As the black fog drew ever closer, more and more guards fell one after another.

When Daigo and Munakata arrived at this point in their search, they happened to see a guard fall to the ground in a sorry state, and the spreading black mist engulfed another guard.

"Damn it! Daigo!"

"understand!"

Munakata fired forward with a long spear, while Daigo helped the survivors up and retreated!

Zongfang fought and retreated, then quickly clicked a few times near the access control, and the lifting gate slowly began to descend…

Zongfang continued firing calmly, while the gate was about to close!

"command!"

Munakata tensed his muscles and fired the final shot! He then rolled backward into the other side of the door! The rising door had completely closed, and the black mist seemed to be sealed off!

Are you alright?

"I, I'm fine..."

"After temporarily sealing off the black mist, we will..."

Zongfang's brow relaxed as he looked at the survivors and Daigo. Before he could finish speaking, Daigo turned around and saw the black mist emerging from under the door...

"command!"

After being reminded, Zongfang also noticed the persistent and strange black mist.

"Are physical methods completely ineffective? Daigo, let's retreat!"

"it is good!"

"Captain, if this continues!"

"The base will be completely destroyed!"

Zongfang shouted into the communicator.

Chapter 339 The Dark Ruler (3)

...

"Are we going to abandon the base and run away alone? No, this place holds so much of my heart and soul... I will fight the police force to the very last moment!"

Inside the command center, upon hearing the message from Munakata and seeing that Sawai was already somewhat interested, Yoshioka rejected the proposal without hesitation.

"Now is not the time to talk about this..."

Realizing that things had spiraled out of control, Megumi looked at Sawai and said urgently, "Director, please give the order!"

"Human lives are at stake. Everyone must take refuge on the Atlas! That's an order!"

They built the TPC base from scratch, but now they're abandoning it...

Admittedly, making such a decision was undoubtedly difficult for Director Sawai.

But when faced with the lives of so many employees, the base became less important.

A base can be rebuilt, but these elite humans are not so easy to train.

"Yes!"

Ye Rui responded and quickly transferred the system and related data.

"The police department stays; I won't hand over the base so easily!"

Yoshioka is still somewhat "stubborn to the end".

Or rather, it's hard to let go of.

He and Sawai were old friends. Although they had different ideologies, they were both working towards the same goal.

Therefore, he understood better than anyone what the TPC base meant to Sawai.

"Obey orders! This is no longer a disaster that humanity can withstand! Are you going to let so many people sacrifice themselves in a meaningless battle, Yoshioka!"

Sawai slowly stood up, clenched her fist and placed it on the table, looking serious and focused.

"... "

Yoshioka's face darkened, but he did not refute her.

"Let's go! Everyone, evacuate!"

Seeing this, Megumi realized that the stubborn police chief had come to his senses, so she quickly gave orders to the others, including Daigo and Munakata who had already returned.

"Yes!"

After an emergency mobilization, most of the staff have successfully entered the Atlas for refuge.

The Atdis is also about to be fully charged.

Things seem to be moving in a positive direction, but is it really that simple?

...

Buzz---

Deep in the Pacific Ocean, underwater ruins.

A colossal black shadow slowly rose from the depths of the sea, its overwhelming pressure and unprecedented darkness constantly assaulting the ocean, causing it to emit fragile howls. Waves surged as a result, creating an apocalyptic scene against the backdrop of an inky black sky.

Glug glug...

"Damn it, what's going on?"

Shinjo and Horii were even more uncomfortable. Inside the Dolphin, they felt the outside suddenly become a turbulent current, with water surging and churning wildly, causing the Dolphin to shake violently!

Suppressing the dizziness, Horii saw a pair of scarlet eyes and, gripping the control panel, said to Shinjo, "That thing has finally started moving! It's terrifying!"

...

thunderbolt---

A short alarm sounded, and in the brief communication screen that Ye Rui had restored, a majestic beast, as tall as a mountain range, slowly appeared on the sea.

The dark patterns on its back, which resembled a giant conch shell, were clearly visible. Its scarlet eyes, unlike those of normal organisms, were located on its abdomen along with its head. Its mouth opened and closed from time to time, emitting a roar like that of an elephant.

Countless tentacles danced wildly in the air, as if venting the loneliness of sleeping for thirty million years.

The ruler of darkness, the evil god Gatanothor!

Within seconds of its appearance, the entire command center's circuitry short-circuited instantly, lights went out, computers crashed, current and sparks appeared on the control panel, and black mist slowly seeped out from the gaps in the keyboard and under the table...

The base probably won't last much longer!

"As the captain of the Victory Team, I hereby order everyone to retreat immediately!"

Upon seeing this, Megumi's expression changed drastically. Ignoring the shock and oppressive feeling of Gatanothor, the black mist had already invaded this place!

"move!"

Yoshioka was pulled back by Munakata, and the others followed suit, crowding around Sawai and running towards the second track.

But one person stood still, motionless.

"Dagu?"

Lina realized what the other person wanted to do and hurriedly called out anxiously.

"What do you want to do? Hurry up and..."
