At six o’clock in the morning, the sky was just beginning to turn pale, and the humid sea breeze, carrying a salty smell, blew in my face.

The original plan was to broadcast the battlefield live at 8 a.m., but now it was plunged into an eerie silence.

CCTV reporter Liu Bingbing wrapped herself tightly in her military coat and has been standing guard in the cold wind from early morning until now.

She looked at the sea in the distance, which was as calm as a mirror, and her heart was filled with anxiety and uneasiness.

This is an important moment concerning the safety of the world. The authorities have already decided to announce the impending crisis to the public through live broadcast, so that the whole world will know that the world is facing an unprecedented threat.

However, several hours had passed since the scheduled time for the monsters to attack, and there was no movement on the battlefield.

Liu Bingbing couldn’t help but start thinking, if it was still so quiet at eight o’clock, how should she go about the live broadcast?

You can’t face the camera and show the world how comfortable and relaxed the soldiers on the front line are at this moment, right?

Lower-level soldiers and journalists knew little about the crisis.

They only heard that monsters would attack the continent, so they were on high alert and prepared for battle.

But as time passed, the monster disappeared.

Although the higher-ups knew that a strong man from the December Palace went to intercept the monster, this news did not reach everyone.

Most of the lower-level soldiers had only heard some rumors, and many were even skeptical about the information. After all, it was difficult for people to believe in the existence of monsters that were beyond common sense.

Liu Bingbing was shocked when she learned that someone from the mysterious organization cooperating with the official went to the monster’s lair alone to block the door.

She knew very well that the live broadcast originally scheduled for 8 o’clock, and the footage shown was actually recorded several hours ago.

This is an official strategy to deal with unexpected situations, so that the live broadcast can be interrupted in time when an emergency occurs.

However, the situation is becoming increasingly tense. If the eight o’clock monster still appears, the live broadcast must go on as usual.

Because the authorities understand that if the live broadcast station remains silent, it will inevitably cause panic among the people, leading to frequent riots, looting and other vicious incidents, which is a situation that Longguo does not want to see.

Time passed quietly in anxiety and waiting, and soon it was eight o’clock.

The sea was still calm and there was nothing unusual.

Liu Bingbing received an order from the headquarters. She looked at the live broadcast equipment that had been turned on and knew that the live broadcast had already begun. At the moment, it was just playing advertisements.

Across the country, many companies tacitly allowed their employees to watch the official live broadcast during working hours.

Countries around the world have kept their mouths shut about the deployment of troops on their coastlines. Although there are many rumors about underwater monsters circulating in the outside world, most people are skeptical about it.

In the eyes of people who have received compulsory education, the story of an underwater monster is too absurd.

How many divisions of his monsters can withstand my 105 small-caliber howitzers? In front of the powerful large-caliber weapons of humans, what can they do even if there are more monsters?

Therefore, everyone was full of curiosity about this live broadcast, and they were eager to know what happened and why they chose to use live broadcast to report the front-line situation.

As the advertisement ended, the live broadcast screen switched to the front battlefield.

Liu Bingbing took a deep breath and said to the camera with forced calmness: “Everyone, I am CCTV reporter Liu Bingbing. We are now at the first line of defense of Bohai Bay, which is a U-shaped defense line made of concrete and gravel.”The camera swept across the defense line, and everyone couldn’t help but gasp when they saw the soldiers on high alert and the fleeting large-caliber howitzers.

“Hiss! What are you going to fight? A steel-armored Tyrannosaurus? You’ve pulled this big guy over here?”

“My goodness, why are these soldiers getting more nervous than each other?”

“Nonsense, you’re still nervous even when I ask you to fight the monster!”

“Fighting monsters? Look what I found! A genius who thinks carbon-based creatures can withstand gunfire!”

In the live broadcast room, netizens were arguing fiercely, and the barrage of comments kept flooding in like a tide.

As the authorities rarely restricted speech, netizens expressed their opinions and argued fiercely about the authenticity of the monster-killing incident.

Liu Bingbing, who was on the front line, had no idea that there was a heated debate on the Internet surrounding what she was reporting.

Just then, a shrill whistle broke the calm air.

A large number of soldiers suddenly poured out of the trench, which was originally quite spacious. They rushed out one after another and quickly filled the trench.

Immediately afterwards, clear instructions were issued one after another: turn on the safety, check the spare ammunition, confirm the location of the ammunition… a series of actions were carried out in an orderly manner.

Liu Bingbing, who had received simple training, also reacted quickly and found a nearby pit and jumped in.

She suppressed her inner tension and said to the camera: “Now the entire army has entered a combat state. The target should be about to appear. Let us wait and see what results our army’s first battle can achieve!”

The live broadcast camera faithfully recorded the shocking scene of thousands of troops preparing for battle in unison.

Seeing this scene, many people sighed sincerely that this was the quality of the Dragon Country Army. Even in peacetime, they had never relaxed basic training.

In sharp contrast to the tense atmosphere of the Dragon Kingdom’s soldiers who are on high alert is the White Eagle Kingdom’s troops stationed on the coastline.

As the sun gradually set, the soldiers of the White Eagle Country had long lost their patience.

They do not have the high consistency and discipline like the Dragon Kingdom soldiers.

After learning that they were facing an unknown enemy who was only likely to appear, the initial tension and vigilance gradually disappeared.

By the evening, the armies of many countries began to become lazy.

Some of the White Eagle Country’s soldiers were smoking leisurely, some were sitting together drinking, and some even built a bonfire on the battlefield and roasted fish and some crustaceans. They had no sense of tension at all about being on the front line.

At this moment, the chief of the White Eagle Nation rushed over in a rage. He looked at the chaotic scene in front of him and burst into anger: “Soldiers! There is a message from the Dragon Nation! The monsters have begun to spread!

Three hours! We still have three hours! Hurry up and arm the position! Damn it! I really want to stick your face on my ass! You guys are eating barbecue on the front line? ”

The commander’s roar echoed across the battlefield, and the soldiers hurriedly put down their food and began to prepare for battle.

The commander looked at these flustered soldiers, his heart filled with helplessness and anger. He really couldn’t understand why there was such a huge gap between the soldiers of his own country and the soldiers of Dragon Country.

At this time, at the underwater gate, the corpses of monsters were piled up like a mountain, even filling up half of the trench!

However, what Ye Wentian gave up was not the number of monsters, but the later monsters. He could no longer extract the opponent’s shadow!

Each of the monsters looked like they had been dead for a long time. Their speed had slowed down to half, their bodies were very stiff, and they were covered with something like mold, which was in stark contrast to the monsters that charged at the beginning.

This reminded him of a popular science program he had watched before, Zombie Mycelium!
