World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 604 - 466: Lune’s Despair (Two-in-One)

"Boom!!!"

A tremendous sound came from afar.

Kando looked up, only to see rolling thick smoke at the end of his line of sight, as a small mushroom cloud slowly ascended.

He knew that Lune and his team had set off a small tactical nuclear bomb.

This bomb had the equivalent of 100 tons of TNT. Although it also had the word ’nuclear’ in its name, its power was not as strong as that of a real nuclear bomb.

Its shockwave could destroy concrete buildings within 0.5 kilometers, shatter glass up to 1.5 kilometers away, and had an actual kill radius of around 0.7 kilometers.

When converted to area, that was about 1.5 square kilometers, almost the size of a Morganstock Town.

However, at such a close distance, that was all the Ninth Fleet could do at the moment.

They did have more powerful nuclear bombs, but if they used those, it was uncertain whether the insects would die, but they would definitely be doomed.

Feeling the intense light that illuminated the distance, Kando’s eyes revealed a glimmer of hope.

Yet, as his vision cleared, and he saw the swarm of insects charging over the hills, the hope that had just appeared in his heart immediately dissipated.

There were too many insects.

In the face of their massive numbers, the effect of a small tactical nuclear grenade was negligible.

Almost as soon as they cleared an area, it was immediately filled by new insects.

And these insects had a bodily strength that completely exceeded that of any creature on Water Blue Star.

If they were not in the core area, they seemed almost impervious, like Undying insects.

At most, they would stop in their tracks, shake their heads, then continue running.

The ones that died were simply too close to the center of the explosion and were killed by the powerful shockwaves and high temperatures.

This discovery chilled everyone at the harbor.

Could humans really defeat such creatures?

Although they felt bitter, what they had to face next was inevitable, and it was time to truly fight for their lives.

"Aaah!"

A terrifying roar suddenly came from behind, and Lune quickly turned his head, looking at the sea with a shocked and uncertain gaze.

The next moment, gigantic waves came crashing toward them, flipping everyone over.

Through the myriad of falling water droplets, Lune saw a huge figure slowly standing up.

"Sea Monster!"

Someone beside him shouted, and the people who had come back to their senses immediately raised their guns and attacked.

It was a monster over 30 meters long.

Its appearance was a bit like a shelled jellyfish, standing upright on the seashore, exerting tremendous psychological pressure on everyone.

The monster was constantly attacking the human ships, completely ignoring the bullets fired from their firearms.

Its body’s hard shell blocked all damage, and ordinary rifles couldn’t harm it at all.

"Rocket!"

Lune shouted with bloodshot eyes.

Beside him, soldiers set up single-combat rocket launchers, and with the trigger of the launcher pulled, a missile immediately flew tens of meters and struck the monster.

The next second, flames burst on the jellyfish-like creature’s body, causing it to stagger.

"Aaah!"

The monster let out a sound like a ship’s horn, turned around, and faced the people at the harbor from afar.

Although Lune couldn’t make out any facial features on the creature, he just knew it was now facing him and his comrades.

A sense of crisis rose from the bottom of his heart. He shouted for his companions to take cover, then he himself ducked behind an armored vehicle.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

Several sounds of cutting air broke out as the monster’s body suddenly ejected dozens of claws from beneath. They stretched out like lightning, stabbing towards them.

"Aaah!"

A series of screams rose as several soldiers were impaled, immediately lifted away, and disappeared beneath the monster’s body.

Lune felt the armored vehicle shake violently. He stood up to check and found a bowl-sized hole in the vehicle.

Seeing this, he couldn’t help but shudder with fright.

Fortunately, he had taken cover behind an armored vehicle that was thick and sturdy.

Had it been an ordinary wall, it probably couldn’t have withstood the monster’s attack.

Not just him, everyone else felt a chill rise in their hearts too, realizing how formidable the monster’s methods were.

"Keep attacking!"

Lune knew this was not the time to be shocked and hesitant, and he immediately issued the command again.

This time, dozens of missiles with long trails were fired, all hitting the Hailed Sea Monster.

Each missile was loaded with 300 pounds of high explosives, with destructive power equivalent to 150 kilograms of TNT, not at all weaker than ordinary missiles.

Now, being struck by so many missiles at the same time, even with the monster’s strong shell defenses, it could no longer withstand the assault.

It let out a scream and tumbled into the sea.

However, Lune was not the least bit elated.

During that time, the outer defense line had already engaged with the massive swarm of insects.

Initially, the warriors could hold back the oncoming insect swarm with their powerful firepower.

But when the swarm of flying insects joined the battlefield, the situation quickly spiraled downward.

Just as Lune had anticipated, the defenders’ line was thrown into disarray by the creatures descending from the sky.
