People are collapsing iron, they say I am a greedy messenger

But it was clear that there was more than one, at least not yet.

……

"Maru spicy!"

The star let out a mournful wail—not much less tragic than the one from the core just now: "Yue Yan has revealed her true form. We'll probably have to join Yaliluo No. 6 in her stomach today."

"So what the hell is this thing?"

Xier cursed out loud in surprise—she had never seen such a big animal in her life, and it was just a head?!

She had only seen similar things in some comics about superheroes fighting monsters, but she never thought that the giant monsters described in them would become reality.

"Don't worry... the real Dusk Ancient Beast can't be this small. This is a weakened version of a weakened version of a weakened version..."

Teacher Dan Heng was the most reliable person at the critical moment. Even in this situation, he did not panic. Instead, he carefully analyzed the current situation and made reasonable assumptions:

"Yue Yan is trying to break free from some kind of seal... but the energy in the star core isn't enough to support her unleashing her full power, which is why her size is so much smaller than the original. Otherwise, she could swallow Yaliluo No. 6 in one gulp. Just watch if you don't believe me."

Everyone looked up and saw that, as expected, the speed of the expansion of the space rift began to slow down gradually. Only the head of the giant beast poked out from the rift, and the rest of its body seemed to be stuck there.

"Then what do we do now?"

Xing asked anxiously:

"You can't just leave it there, right?"

A hint of solemnity appeared on the cold-faced Little Green Dragon's face, which had remained unchanged for thousands of years. To him, a frown was considered a very serious expression.

"It all depends on Yue Yan's next move... Wait a minute... She's moving, hurry up and catch up!"

The leader of the ancient beasts in the sky let out a roar that resounded through the heavens and earth, then turned around and began to move towards the south. Everyone hurried to catch up - Bronya hugged Cocolia, while Xing picked up the lance that fell with her.

Yue Yan's speed was not slow, and they had to run at full speed to barely keep up. Fortunately, they were all destiny travelers, otherwise the energy consumption alone would be enough to make them exhausted.

"Wait a minute, she's targeting Beloberg!!!"

After marching for an hour or two, Bronya's anxious voice woke everyone up. They looked forward - and sure enough, they could vaguely see the familiar towering city wall in the distance.

"not good!!"

Seeing this, Dan Heng suddenly had an extremely terrifying thought in his mind:

"Yue Yan... She's searching for energy—she wants to consume Beloberg's stored earth marrow to help her break free from the seal!"

This is undoubtedly in line with the habits of the ancient dusk beast - it prioritizes eating the best food. Mountains and dry grass cannot provide much energy, but the earth marrow is different.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone felt very disappointed.

The earth's marrow is the lifeblood of Beloberg today. All industrial production, urban functions, heating pipes, etc.... everything is based on the supply of the earth's marrow.

If this thing is eaten, then even if Yue Yan will not harm ordinary people, all heating in the city will quickly stop, the temperature will drop rapidly, and eventually Beloberg will be frozen into a hard dead city!

"Yanza! Yanza! You don't like eating that thing, Yanza!"

Xing was still trying to bring Yue Yan back to consciousness, and everyone took out the steamed dumplings that Yue Yan had given them and ate them to buff themselves to prepare for whatever might happen next.

"Tsk, they didn't use it when fighting for the star core, but in the end they had to use it against their own people!"

Sanyue was in no mood to savor the food. As she chewed, she said in distress, "What the hell is this?!"

Two flowers are in bloom, each showing its own beauty. At this moment, in the penalty area of ​​Beloberg's iron guard.

Shiluwa, who had finally coaxed Jeppard into submission, was sitting on a chair in the camp. With a tired look on her face, she picked up the hot tea her brother had poured for her and took a sip.

Those beautiful blue pupils unconsciously moved to the sky - today the sky in Beloberg was unexpectedly blue. The dark clouds that had covered the city for many days, representing the snowstorm, had dispersed, bringing rare good weather.

The light from the stars penetrated the atmosphere, draping this ancient city in a golden veil. The sunlight warmed people, giving them the illusion that the snow was melting. It was quite comfortable...

Belloberg hasn't had such a nice sunny day for several months... Maybe this is a good omen?

I don’t know if they succeeded, but I hope they won’t let me down…

Shiluwa took another sip of hot tea while unconsciously daydreaming.

But at this moment, her peripheral vision suddenly caught a glimpse of a black dot in the distance... It looked strange and extremely abrupt in the blue sky.

"What is that?"

She stood up with some doubt in her mind. Driven by boredom, she picked up the telescope beside her and put it to her face, squinting her eyes, trying to see more clearly.

But when she adjusted her angle and saw the true appearance of the so-called black spot...

After a "puff" sound, what came into view made Shiluwa spit out all the tea in her mouth, and the mist even formed a small rainbow in the air.

She said in a trembling voice.

"What the hell is that?!"

She felt her worldview was being challenged—through the telescope, she discovered that the black dot in the distance was actually an oversized monster head floating in the air! The kind without limbs, just a head.

Oh, damn, this is a little weird.

Shiluwa put down the telescope in disbelief, wiped the lens and looked again.

This time he saw it clearly - it was indeed a monster head with a bloody mouth open, the real thing, and it was flying towards Beloberg, right in the direction.

Isn’t this really just some weird story from a horror novel?

"Fuck!!!"

Chapter 66: Approaching, the gluttonous beast! (First update)

After confirming that it was not an illusion, Shiluwa cursed and crawled to his feet, kicked open the door of the military camp nearby, found Jeppard who was discussing matters with his subordinates, and dragged him out.

Jeppard, whose work was suddenly interrupted, asked helplessly:

"Sister, what are you going to do now?"

"You, look at this! Come on, look at this!!"

Shiluwa put the telescope to his face and asked him to look at the northern sky.

Then, when he saw clearly what was floating in the distant sky, even this officer, who was usually so calm and expressionless, was shocked to the point of being speechless. After a moment's reaction, he stammered, "What are you talking about?"

"What kind of monster is that?!"

……

...

In the Iron Guard restricted area, the Level 1 combat alert bell was rung, symbolizing that Beloberg was about to face an extreme crisis. Except for the wounded and sick, all the Iron Guards who could move, whether they were veterans who had fought for many years or new recruits who had just entered the battlefield, were all deployed on the city walls.

The Iron Guards arranged their firearms in an orderly manner. They were reluctant to use the ancient cannons left on the city walls seven hundred years ago. They were activated again and the muzzles were all adjusted to the north, towards the head of the giant beast, to guard against possible attacks.

These interstellar-era cannons, built by the city builders seven hundred years ago, consume a huge amount of earth marrow every time they are fired - enough to keep the factories in the industrial zone running at full capacity for 12 hours, making them a money-burning machine.

But its power is equally astonishing. It can turn a mountain into a lake with just one blow. It has only been used 100 times in the past 13 years, and each time it was able to save Beloberg from the beast tide formed by the Rift Creation.

Due to the high cost, under normal circumstances, the activation of these cannons requires the personal order of the Grand Guardian or the dispatch order of the commander... But now both the Grand Guardian and the commander are away, and the situation is urgent. As the Guard Officer, Jeppard can only act as a temporary agent and convey orders to his subordinates and engineers in the army.

"Scouts, keep an eye on the northern beasts. Report any unusual activity to me!"

"Yes!"

Jeppard's forehead was covered with cold sweat, but he continued to give orders - as an excellent officer, he knew that the more times like this, the more he could not stop. He had to get the soldiers moving, leaving them no time to think or worry.

Death itself is not scary, what is scary is what awaits you when you are on the verge of death - everyone can see the head of the giant beast, and its movement speed is not slow. Its size is even larger than that of an ordinary mountain. The mountains and buildings that block its way are all bitten into pieces and put into its mouth to chew.

Wherever she passed, any slightly higher mountain would be bitten into a circular gap, which made it impossible for her to slow down even a little bit.

Such a monster is heading towards Beloberg. The scene is apocalyptic...

If any soldier suffers a mental breakdown, it will quickly cause a chain reaction in the army.

This must not be allowed to happen!

"Silvermane Iron Guard, Second Engineer Regiment!"

"exist!!!"

"Follow my orders, get on the city wall!"

"Yes!!!"

……

"Protective Creeper."

This young officer, who firmly believed that man could conquer nature, gave orders while praying in his heart for God's response in confusion - even though God's voice had not been heard by anyone for 700 years.

The alien team that was going to seal the core of the star had just left when this thing appeared... He couldn't figure out how the two were related, so he could only recite it silently in his mind to calm himself down.

"Is this the final challenge you give us, or is it the true hell prophesied by the City Builder? What does hell look like?

After 700 years of continuous cold waves, is this natural disaster finally going to kill us? Can we... really survive it?

But then, his eyes became firm again.

In any case, the 700-year-long cold wave did not defeat Beloberg and its people, and the endless monsters from the Rift were unable to truly defeat the Silvermane Iron Guards on the front line.

Even if the head of the giant beast is really the hell in the prophecy... as long as the dust has not settled, there is still hope for Beloberg!

So he continued to give orders:

"Silver Mane Guards, 37th Gunnery Regiment!!"

"exist!!!"

"Follow my orders, get on the city wall!"

"Yes!!!"

"Brother!"

Suddenly, Shiluwa, who had just disappeared, ran over, holding a toolbox in her hand and staring straight into Jeppard's eyes:

"I'm an engineer, I want to go up too."

He was stunned and wanted to refuse subconsciously - after all, his sister no longer held a public office. She was already an ordinary civilian with no such obligations and could drive away from the dangerous front line.

"Sister, you..."

"You know, I'm the best engineer in Beloberg. No one knows how to operate those ancient machines better than me. Let me go up to the city wall."

Shiluwa interrupted him, her tone carrying the rare authority of an older sister - she hadn't spoken to him in this tone for a long time since Jeppard became an adult.

This is the first time in the last five years.

"I'm going to go up the city wall, whether you like it or not. This is my duty as a city builder and the bearer of the Lang Dao family name, and it's something I must do.

Let me tell you, when I was little you couldn’t stop me from doing whatever I wanted to do, and it’s the same now.”

"sister……"

Jeppard looked at his sister's blue eyes which were similar to his own, and in a trance he seemed to see her as a child, when she firmly protected him behind her when he was bullied.

So, this calm and composed guard officer smiled, which was rare, but he suddenly became serious the next second:

"City Builder Shiluwa!"

Xiluwa's eyes lit up, and she happily hugged her brother and replied:

"exist!"

"Follow my orders and follow the Third Engineer Regiment to the city wall!"

"Yes!!"

Looking at his sister's departing back, Jeppard's smile could no longer be hidden, and he could only cover his face with his hands cautiously.

My sister is still the same sister, whether she was a child or now.

The only difference is that she used to protect her younger brother, but now she protects...

The people of Beloberg.

……

On the other hand, on the train team's side, after a mad dash, Dan Heng actually found the spaceship that everyone had left behind in a hidden pile of snow.

This is really a lifesaver!

After the spaceship started, the other people quickly boarded and flew towards the Iron Guard restricted area.

The city’s iron guards must be notified as soon as possible and asked to prepare, otherwise everything will be over!
