Chapter 518: Ocean Beast Wave is here
The Ying City Alliance Army lacked guns and bows, but it didn’t mean they had none.
Survivors had a deep reliance on things that they understood during peacetime.
The fear of guns was something that couldn’t be changed quickly. To many, the best way to kill was for bullets to pierce the bodies of the enemy.
So, be it from the wheel or other methods, survivors would treat guns as a trump card.
When this team showed that they wanted to sneak attack the base, those with guns were gathered together on the first floor.
What flew from the sixth floor was the ranged skills.
The mysterious squad saw the skills. A red carpet flew from the team's center that spun and expanded, covering their heads. The skills landed on the carpet and disappeared after a giant stream of light.
The equipment caused the battlefield to freeze before guns fired again.
“Decent thing.”
Xia Bai spoke up and then disappeared with a group.
The Ying City Alliance Army on the first floor fired.
This caught the mysterious team off guard.
Shooting from above gave one an advantage, which was why the mysterious squad felt the gunners should be above. They didn’t expect them to be on the first floor.
Blood and defensive equipment shone simultaneously, with more cries than before.
These fights weren’t the normal gun fights that one thought about. These guns had levels, and the bullets had different lights and skills. Normal shooting angle and dodging weren’t accurate. One’s understanding of such fights had to change.
Especially in such a battle of scale, it was useless to dodge. The battle was based on accuracy and defensive gear.
Defensive equipment was more useful than thick cement walls.
Both sides fired, and those at the front fell.
500 Ying City gunners were gathered here, and after a round of shots that lasted a few dozen seconds, over half of them fell. What they got in return was a few dozen kills.
It wasn’t because their evolution level was low but because of their shooting skills and coordination. There was a huge gap. This was the difference between professionals and those who weren’t.
Skills continued falling from the sixth floor, clashing with that weird carpet. Both sides wanted to see if the ranged survivors ran out of mental energy first or if this carpet would fail.
At the ground level, the two sides were still shooting at one another.
A minute had passed since the battle started, but over 700 people had died. This was the power of guns at this stage.
Such situations would reduce when one got into the apocalypse. Bulletproof equipment would become more common.
At this time, four teams charged from the two sides of the base. Each had 3,000 people. Two of them headed for the mysterious group while the others headed for their backs.
Cloud Peak was just using the ranged attacks to distract the enemy so that they could draw them close.
Mo Ye made her mind up, and she wouldn’t let this mysterious squad live. Ye Zhongming influenced her. His ideals were that those who offended him would all die. If you wanted to offend them, you had to judge if you were strong enough.
This was a way to stay alive.
As for whether or not this squad was from that system and whether offending them would cause repercussions, Mo Ye didn’t have to consider.
That guy mentioned that surviving in the apocalypse meant you had to be enemies with the entire world.
The intense shooting consumed a lot of gunpowder. Mo Ye didn’t see many resources on this squad. She didn’t think this thousand-strong squad could keep this up for long. If they weren’t arrogant, they still had things to rely on.
Behind an unassuming window, Mo Ye started to look into the distance. She didn’t care about the battle below. The Ying City Alliance would win that; she was just searching for the source of her unease.
There?
Mo Ye looked at the dark clouds gathering in the distance. The sky was turning black. It looked far away, and it wasn’t obvious.
The city had strict rules at night. One wasn’t allowed to light flames or lightbulbs in case they attracted mutated lifeforms from above. But it was too chaotic today. Many parts of the city were in flames, and smoke billowed. The light from the battle also shone in many areas. The bullets shot through the sky, which lit up the city.
“Two teams appeared at two o'clock and 11 o'clock. The former is larger, with at least a few thousand. The latter’s equipment is similar to those below. They should be from the same squad. There are over 500 of them.”
Little Tiger entered the room covered in blood. He had gone out to scout the situation.
“Lead Liang Chuyin’s squad to that team at 11 o’clock, leave the 2 o’clock one to Xia Bai.”
Mo Ye ordered coldly and went downstairs herself.

On the ocean's surface, the waves didn’t only splash; numerous ocean beasts were also hidden.
The giant hill floated a few hundred meters from the shore. Various mutated beasts spread across the beaches and headed towards Cloud Port.
The sentries here had disappeared for some reason, so no one gave a warning.
The beasts surged but suddenly split up in two directions. The group in the middle started to push slowly.
If someone looked at them from above, they would notice they were wrapping around Cloud Port. They wanted to surround a human city.
That blue eye twitched. It looked deep into the ocean and gave off a human-like emotion.
There was hatred, unwillingness, and rage…
The body started to float to reveal the parts hidden below the surface. Its black body looked like a stone pillar that appeared from the ground. That increased the height of the hill.
Numerous white tentacles stretched to the beaches, and the hill finally revealed its complete body.
At the center of its hundred-meter body were two purple level-seven crystals, which gave off a weird glow under the moonlight.
