CHAPTER 502: CHAPTER 280: CITYWIDE DEATH TRAP! (PART 6)

"My God, I thought we could evacuate tomorrow!"

"During the test just now, it seemed like we weren’t marked..."

"Staying to defend the city, evacuating during the Extreme Night, is... is this really feasible?"

"If this is really the case, we’d rather stay here. At least we have shelters and cannons here. If we’re on the road, our vehicles are absolutely incapable of withstanding a tide of monsters of that level."

"Exactly, anyway, we’ve already been marked, we have no choice but to fight, what else can we do?"

"Yes, listen to the Phoenix Society, fight with them, maybe there’s still a glimmer of hope!"

"Defend the city? I think we can. I love playing tower defense. I have a lot of experience. Can I command?"

"You? Don’t kid yourself, Captain He has been leading troops in battles for so many years, he doesn’t need your little bit of game experience?"

"..."

The crowd was full of murmurs, heavy with solemnity.

Zhao Yu’s gaze swept across the square: "That’s the situation, there’s no time to delay. Starting now, each convoy can express their stance. Whether they have been marked or not, they can choose to evacuate. I have already let the support point prepare some of the emergency evacuation supplies and ammunition needed. The evacuation time is before 6 o’clock. Apart from this, I will share all remaining ammunition and supplies with the entire city and draft a detailed defense plan, forming tactical squads based on vehicle and weapon ratios and Superpower User abilities, and establish a temporary city-building battle command center, completing all response preparations before nightfall."

His words fell, and the crowd below quieted down considerably.

"Umm..." at this moment, a captain from one of the convoys raised his hand in the crowd: "We don’t have marks, can we really evacuate, does that mean there’s no danger?"

His words also caught the attention of some other convoys without marks, all looking at Zhao Yu.

"That’s right, those without marks can evacuate. As for whether there’s no danger, I trust our scientific team’s judgment. At least, the danger will be minimized. I believe this will be the common judgment method worldwide for dealing with Dark Creatures in the future," Zhao Yu responded sternly.

"Then... then we choose to evacuate." The convoy that asked just now gritted his teeth. His convoy had already suffered heavy losses last night and had basically lost the will to resist.

"We’re evacuating too."

"It seems like our convoy isn’t marked either... so it’s none of our business." At this point, the one speaking was Long Dahei from the Heizi Convoy. He glanced complexly over the members of the Phoenix Society on the stage and said, "I don’t know what to say, um... thanks for your support, I hope you succeed."

With that, he took a deep breath, turned around, and left with a few of his men.

Meanwhile, more convoys were leaving one after another, leaving the square silent.

"We trust the Phoenix Society’s decision, to live or die with everyone!" At this moment, a resilient female voice was the first to break the silence.

"That’s right, refuse to surrender, fight to the death!!" Her voice seemed to trigger some emotion.

Those who had suffered great losses, those whose families were torn apart by the monster tide, those who knew they were trapped and were angry, more and more people’s emotions were ignited!

"Damn it, daring to treat us like pigs, and even marking us, then screw them!" A man with foul language shouted in anger.

"I haven’t killed an S-Class before, maybe killing an S-Class, our whole city will evolve, what do you say, right or not!" At this time, someone spoke in an unusual thought process.

"Hey, that’s right!!"

"What’s there to fear, fight them! We didn’t have enough of it last night, we’re fully prepared this time, gonna slaughter these beasts till they’re wiped out."

"Yeah, don’t think humans are easyto mess with; I’m at the top of the food chain!!"

"Do it!"

"We’re not marked either, yet we’ll stand with the Phoenix Society!"

"Slay, slay, slay, our Dingli Convoy will be the first to sign up!"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, the excitement in the square suddenly began to boil, and the atmosphere of readiness for battle grew stronger.

"Xiao He, tally the final numbers, check the weapons." Witnessing this scene, He Zhen’s gaze steadied, immediately instructing his adjutant Xiao He.

"Yes."

Soon, the tally was completed, and people in the command center hall began discussing the city-building plan.

"Report, a total of 1236 convoys survived in the entire city, with 1072 convoys choosing to stay and defend the city, and 164 convoys evacuating, all of which are unmarked convoys, and the total number of people and weapons are currently being counted." Xiao He reported.

"The Nightwalker Organization is also summarizing the superpower data from previous tests, and it will take some time for grouped deployment." Wen Zhuo also said at this moment.

"Alright."

"Let’s finalize the city-building plan right away, He Zhen, first discuss the defense layout."

A holographic sand-table tactics table was placed in the center of the hall, Zhao Yu stood at the forefront, surrounded by members of the Investigation Corps, Nightwalker Organization, and leaders of various representative convoys, all with serious expressions as they looked at the holographic city map of Xilan City on the tactics table.

"Alright."

He Zhen held a pointer and pointed to the northern and eastern city walls of Xilan City.

"The northern, eastern, and southern city defense walls are permanent fortifications. Now that the city can no longer prevent the monster tide from surging in, continuing to focus defense outside the city will result in being attacked from behind."

"So my strategy is to abandon the urban defenses and let the north city perimeter, the passenger rail track station behind it, and Xilan Airport form a triangular strategic position, the east city perimeter and the steel industrial zone, weapon manufacturing factory form a triangular strategic position, the south city perimeter relying on the mountains and Duga Radar Array Station for defense, and abandoning the city west due to the lack of defensive strongholds, Fenglan Mountain, and the mines not holding a defensive position. Finally, deploy highly mobile and powerful Superpower combat groups at Mitchell Square and Central Avenue, carry Disaster Plants to attract and respond flexibly to A-level Abyss Worms and S-Class Cloud Black Thorn, which can closely interact at the three key areas, thus forming a pincer offensive when necessary to attack and resolve threats within the city."
