Plague Doctor-Chapter 463 - Abyss

In the sky of Mo Bei City, the dark clouds paused and so did the fighter jets. However, more abnormal creatures appeared in the sky. The flying polypus hydroid flickered past before it was rammed into by several dark shadows. They were the Byakees. In that collision, the hydroid's tentacles were snipped and its elongated body was torn apart. With its harrowing wails, the hydroid was shredded by the group of Byakees. With a rain of blood, the Byakees pounced at their next victim. This situation occurred at Chi Lin City, the desert wasteland and the borders…

The command central had already notified the frontline to leave the fight to the abnormal creatures. They would use poison to fight poison. Even though there were less Byakees, they were extremely ferocious in battle. They were faster and crueller than the hydroids. They were the manifestation of their summoners and their summoners had already decided to fight to their death.

The citizens hiding inside the buildings, running on the streets, driving away in their cars, they were confused by what they saw. There were baffled seniors, panicked parents and crying children. Some of them would die in this tragedy, others would live for another few decades. However, the scene that they saw would fix in their minds forever.

"Mommy, those are our fighting monsters!" A child told his mother excitedly, "The police uncle told me that they are on our side." Indeed, that was what the Phecda members tasked to protect the citizens were told to say. It was meant to inspire the citizens. They finally saw a trace of hope. There were a lot more flying polypus hydroids but this kind of large bird with decaying body was more powerful!

Reports from various locales arrived at the command central but the reports from Wang Ruoxiang's group were conspicuously missing. Ever since they started the summoning ritual, the command central lost contact with them but they maintained a single-way communication. "The Byakees have joined the battlefield and they perform greatly! If you hear this, please reply!" Of course, there was no reply.

Elder Tong appeared to have grown 10 years overnight. His face showed no trace of joy despite having the powerful reinforcement. He was worried about Wang Ruoxiang and Cai Zixuan, furthermore, he believed that the reinforcement would not help that much. Or else the Yith would not have said the things they did…

The two mutated areas were still expanding. The locusts inside them bounced against the borders. However, the appearance of the Byakees did provide a slight reprieve for the One. They instantly tried to reform the Ancient Seal Web. They would expand the web and mobilize more people. Everyone knew these two mutated areas had to be shut down or else the war would not end. The death toll at the frontline was climbing, even the One had lost 5 members. On the other hand, more people were arriving at the frontline. Due to the Yith's plan, all the countries knew that this tragedy would spell the world's doom so they showed unparalleled unity at this moment. If they had known this beforehand, they would have sent aid earlier.

At the same time, Lou Xiaoning, Ma Feng, Uncle Dan repositioned the cleansing stones at the wasteland. Their mental power was almost drained during the last session but with that experience, they could be the perfect guides to help others channel their power to form the net. They knew the Ancient Seal technology belonged to the Yith and the Yith had given them the death sentence… but they had no other choice, giving up was not an option.

When Deng Ximei put down the cleansing stone she carried, she looked up at the intense fight between the Byakees and flying polypus hydroids in the sky. A decomposing smell lingered in the air. The situation was turning for the better but the bad feeling in her heart grew. An illusion of the earth breaking flickered before her eyes… There were already plenty of flying polypus hydroids in the sky but for an insectoid race, several thousands were not really a big number. At that moment, Deng Ximei's heart squeezed. She felt the earth shake, and it was not an illusion.

The alarm sounded immediately. "Earthquake warning!" "The ground is collapsing…"

The earthquake came so suddenly and it intensified quickly. The quake could be heard several 100 km away. The ground within 50 cubic km cracked and sank. Soil, dust, and sand all disappeared into the ground like they were being swallowed by some giant monster. A natural abyss appeared at the desert wasteland. It was incredibly deep, and completely devoid of light, it was like a door to hell. Deep inside the abyss, waves of flying polypus hydroids suddenly rushed forward. There were so many of them, their number could not be counted. They easily vanquished the small hope that was reignited earlier. Locust, they were a swarm of locust. The people at the border were stunned. Is this the end predicted by the Yith…

The missiles continued to fire. Heavy weaponry joined in. The flying polypus hydroids covered a range of about 50 cubic metres and they were such obvious targets, an atomic bomb was clearly the best choice. But Elder Tong insisted against it. His reasoning was simple, the reality collision between the multiworlds was still happening. If they caused an atomic explosion at Mo Bei, the entire Mo Bei would be consumed by the Wasteland World. So they could not use atomic bombs. However, during this small argument, the flying polypus hydroids had already covered the sky. The Byakees were easily swept away in their waves. The hydroids also changed their target, they aimed right at the One.

"Fuck!" Lou Xiaoning had to stop moving the stones. She grabbed the auto rifles and shot at the giant shadows that rushed at her. "Go to hell!" The people around her did the same. However, the gunshots did not land on any of their targets. The tentacles lashed against the ground. There was a loud whiplash and the One's members felt themselves being pulled apart by a powerful force…

They were swept into the air before landing heavily on the ground. Lou Xiaoning's consciousness wavered. Her face was warm with blood. Her right hand reached towards the rifle that dropped near her. She gripped around the handle and felt the softness of the 'gun'. Only then she realized she was holding a dismembered leg. She had no idea whether it was hers or someone else's…

The hydroids attacked Uncle Dan, Ma Feng and the rest as well. They all collapsed to the ground with heavy injury. They had already exhausted their mental power and now they were drained of their physical power. Their world was dyed red.

Only Deng Ximei was spared by the hydroids. However, she was lost watching her partners fall one after another. She was overwhelmed by the chaos around her. Deng Ximei looked into the sky and a Byakee was being garrotted by a group of hydroids…

However, all of a sudden, she heard something else as she turned her gaze to the abyss that had consumed the entire desert wasteland. After this area mutated, the connection between the multiworlds appeared to have strengthened. And now something else was coming out from the dimensional tears around the abyss…

Out of nowhere, innumerable Byakees arrived. They rushed in from the border which connected to the other world. There were so many of them, they blocked out the sky. There were humans riding on the back of some of the Byakees.. They were in protective suits that had the Mysterium's logo on them.
