Orders were issued one after another, and the Holy Blood in the city were both executors and messengers.
They relayed the orders from the Holy Father and the Huaxia Army word for word to the residents in the city, and when people heard from the Holy Blood that the "Huaxia Army will take decisive measures to eliminate the monsters threatening the Imperial City," surprised expressions appeared on the faces of these civilians.
Does that mean that the previous means, where they charged into the Imperial City like fierce tigers and slaughtered a dozen monsters as if they were slicing through fruits and vegetables, were not considered decisive measures?
So now, what exactly are they planning to do?
The civilians gathered together, trying to seek an answer from the Holy Blood, but the response they received was simple and straightforward.
"Kill the monsters, that’s it."
But where are the monsters?
No one could see any traces of monster activity. It seemed that after the first wave of the "Beast Tide," the surrounding monsters, even those Blood Skulls, had disappeared without a trace.
Looking around, where are the enemies?
---- However, what they didn’t know is that at this moment, Chen Jian’s smart lenses had already marked at least four different monsters.
"This is the second wave of the Beast Tide."
Chen Jian exhaled deeply and then said:
"These monsters are smarter than those from the first wave----or you could say the first wave monsters were just cannon fodder to probe the path."
"Almost every monster has unique camouflage techniques, and their movements are very cautious."
"If it weren’t for the drones providing aerial views, we would certainly be confused by their surprise attacks."
"Fu Xi, report on the nuclear bomb deployment status!"
"All nuclear bombs have been fully deployed!"
Fu Xi’s response came through the earpiece, and Chen Jian nodded slightly, immediately issuing an order:
"Everyone, pay attention, thirty-minute countdown to detonation."
"Wait for monster number one to enter the explosion range of nuclear bomb number one."
"The guests have arrived, prepare the dishes!"
With that order, everyone’s nervousness intensified.
It wasn’t their first time facing monsters.
But using nuclear bombs to strike monsters was definitely a first.
In the distance, through the drone’s perspective, Chen Jian could clearly see an enormous creature almost merged with the surrounding vegetation moving slowly.
That was the monster that disappeared near Ande City.
At this moment, it was moving toward the Imperial City direction, and the standby truck kept fine-tuning its position to ensure overlap of the path.
Under this strategy, the distance between the monster and nuclear bomb number one continued to close.
Less than 6 kilometers now.
According to its trajectory, it was likely to pass within a 1-kilometer range of the nuclear bomb in 30 minutes.
Chen Jian waited quietly for a few minutes and then issued the "truck withdrawal" command.
The nuclear bomb was dismounted, and 20 minutes later, the truck sped out of the danger zone to wait, ready to redeploy the cellular network base station after the first nuclear explosion to ensure smooth communication.
Meanwhile, the Ande City monster had approached less than 1 kilometer from nuclear bomb number one.
Its path had slightly changed, but the distance was already enough.
Chen Jian checked the aerial surveillance images one last time.
He was a bit disappointed that the terrain changes caused by the "Whale Catfish" did not appear within their predicted range.
Perhaps it hadn’t arrived yet?
Or maybe it was still hiding?
The intense electromagnetic impact following the first nuclear explosion would surely provoke a response.
Chen Jian took a deep breath, planning to issue the detonation order.
And just at that moment, in the drone footage, a patch of green vegetation suddenly collapsed.
Without a second of hesitation, Chen Jian immediately ordered:
"Countdown 10 seconds!"
