Chapter 758: Chapter 730: Don’t Leave Even a Single One!

Hearing Xu Guodong’s words, a peculiar expression crossed Yu Yueying’s face.

Her duty was also to protect the safety of the citizens.

Only, at this time, these soldiers were far braver than she was.

Just as Xu Guodong had said, they stood their ground not because of orders, but because of their duty; they were soldiers, and behind them lay their families and homes, so they couldn’t run away!

"Everyone!"

Yu Yueying turned to look at the group of police officers behind her.

"Those who are willing to stay and fight, stay. Those who are not, return to Linchuan immediately and report to our superiors that we need more support!" Yu Yueying said in a deep voice.

She had neither the right nor the authority to make them stay, so she gave them a choice.

Upon hearing Yu Yueying’s words, the police officers fell silent.

Most of them, after hesitating upon hearing her words, chose to turn away. They had their own families, and their families couldn’t afford to lose them.

Seeing those who turned and left, a hint of disappointment flitted across Yu Yueying’s face, but she understood the thoughts of these people. She glanced at those who stayed and a look of admiration appeared in her eyes.

"You’ve chosen to stay, which means you’re willing to sacrifice your lives for your homeland. No matter what happens in this battle, you are all heroes!"

Yu Yueying shouted, "Armed Police, form a shield wall! You’ll be at the very front, with support fire from behind!"

"Move out! Go and support our comrades-in-arms!"

The remaining police officers responded in unison and immediately charged into the melee where the soldiers and the monsters were battling.

For them, choosing to stay meant they were ready to face death.

They had seen the strength of these monsters, not only was their power astonishing, but their speed was also bizarrely unpredictable; sometimes even bullets would miss them. To engage in close combat was essentially a suicide mission.

But still, they stayed without a second thought.

Perhaps, when facing difficulties and dangers, most people would choose to flee or dodge.

But, this world always needs heroes.

...

"How’s it going?"

Li Chen, leading the men of the Nether Army, came to the outskirts of Linchuan City, his expression somber as he turned to Alice beside him and asked.

"It seems the army and police have already engaged with the monsters." Alice was still holding a laptop, her fingers moving swiftly across it.

Soon, scenes of the battle appeared on the computer screen.

Alice had actually directly hacked into civil satellites to provide them with imagery!

"How’s the situation?" Li Chen asked urgently.

"The situation... it’s quite devastating." Alice swallowed hard, speaking with some difficulty.

At that moment, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of Li Chen and his men; these were the police officers who had pulled back from the front lines.

Seeing the panic and distress on their faces, Li Chen’s expression grew even more grave.

"All Nether Army, heed my command!"

"Present!" The Nether Army responded in unison at Li Chen’s side.

This time Li Chen hadn’t brought many men with him, just a little over a hundred, because that was the total number of the Nether Army available in Linchuan.

But the main force tasked with slaying the monsters wasn’t them, it was the group of powerful warriors standing beside Li Chen.

"The enemy lies ahead. There are only two things you need to do: kill the monsters, save the people! Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir!"

Following Li Chen’s command, a group dressed in black began to mobilize.

Li Chen, leading a group of strong individuals by his side, dashed toward the battlefield without hesitation, bypassing the police officers who were retreating.

"Clang!"

In Yu Yueying’s hands was a military saber she had picked up from a fallen soldier, and before her stood a strange creature clad in green scales.

As her saber clashed with the creature’s claws, a brilliant shower of sparks erupted, and Yu Yueying, after the exchange, was violently knocked back several steps, almost landing on the ground.

At that moment, a Triangular Spike suddenly thrust from the side, piercing through the underbelly of the scaled monster—its only vulnerable spot not protected by scales.

"Ssst!"

Withdrawing the Triangular Spike, its barbs dragged out viscera and a copious amount of blood, splattering her face and body.

"Officer Yu, be careful. These monsters are very strong. Don’t clash with them; aim for their weak points," Xu Guodong advised.

"...Okay!" Yu Yueying steadied herself, her complexion turning pale as she realized just how formidable these creatures were, no wonder the soldiers had fallen at a disadvantage in an instant.

"Watch out!"

Just then, Yu Yueying shouted loudly towards Xu Guodong.

"Ssst!"

A sharp claw struck out from the side, and Xu Guodong, unable to dodge in time, was viciously raked across the shoulder.

Suddenly, flesh was torn away, revealing a ghastly sight of white bones.

"Pff!"

A spurt of fresh blood erupted from Xu Guodong’s mouth, but instead of retreating immediately, he turned and delivered a fierce stab.

"Crack!"

A monster behind Xu Guodong was unexpectedly impaled, screeching in pain.

The creature lay on the ground, lifeless, as Xu Guodong also sustained serious injuries.

Though a soldier, he was just a regular person who had suddenly suffered severe wounds, instantly losing his combat power.

"Major Xu!"

Yu Yueying yelled out; before she could reflect further, another monster reappeared by her side. Its gaping maw filled with sharp teeth appeared ferocious and terrifying, and it snapped viciously at Yu Yueying.

At this moment, Yu Yueying had lost her saber on the ground in the previous shock, leaving her no means to fend off the attacking creature. Despair was evident in her eyes.

However, just then, a grunt came from behind Yu Yueying.

"Scram!"

Before Yu Yueying could understand what was happening, she saw a flash of red light dart past her.

Then, the creature fell to the ground.

Split in two.

"Officer Yu, long time no see," Li Chen said with a smile, slowly approaching Yu Yueying.

"Li Chen?" The sight of Li Chen brought an unmistakable joy to Yu Yueying’s eyes.

"Li Chen?" Hearing this name, Xu Guodong seemed to remember something, gazing at Li Chen with a glint of amazement.

"Alright, soldier sir, you’ve already done enough for us. It’s time for us, the ordinary citizens, to take care of this ourselves," Li Chen said calmly.

Behind him emerged a neatly formed rank of black-clad fighters.

In Li Chen’s hand was a blood-red long saber.

Red Moon!

Li Chen’s eyes were icy as he observed the monsters slaughtering the soldiers and police.

"Kill! Don’t leave a single one!"
