Chapter 1036 - 376: Reinforcements from the Sea, the Azure-Clad Guest!

"Don’t fucking forget why we built a city in this damned place!!"

"Hold on! Reinforcements are coming soon!!"

The morale, on the brink of collapse, was forcefully pulled back by those two angry shouts.

The circular formation that was being pressed, step by step, miraculously stabilized.

It even began to show a weak trend of counterattack.

Angry shouts and loud wails intertwined.

Every inch of the ice surface was soaked with scalding blood and cold filth.

...

At the rear of the battlefield.

Relying on the huge unfinished concrete pedestal and the mountain-like stacks of supply boxes.

Shen Zhou and a group of non-combat personnel, technical backbones, huddled behind temporary cover.

The deafening sounds of slaughter, the roars of the Destiny Ghosts, and the dying screams fiercely hammered everyone’s heart.

Shen Zhou’s face was pale as paper, clutching a military communicator stained with sweat and blood.

He roared into the microphone:

"Where are the people?! I’m fucking asking you, where are the people?!!"

"Whatever the conditions! Whatever the method! Get me people!!"

"The front line is about to hold up!! Commander Fang isn’t here! Captain Wei and the others can’t last much longer!!"

"All stocks! All resources! Bet everything! Tell those mercenary corps, adventure teams! As long as they can make it alive to the Ice Sea Dawn construction site! I, Shen Zhou, on behalf of Deep Blue Heavy Industries, will offer tenfold! A hundredfold reward!! If they want money, give them money! If they want resources, give them resources! If they want Destiny Ghost materials, give them plenty!! Hurry!!"

He shouted until his voice was hoarse.

After hanging up the communicator, Shen Zhou slumped against the cold concrete pile, completely drained.

Desperately looking at the meat grinder-like battlefield ahead.

In his sight was the seemingly endless, pitch-black tide of Destiny Ghosts.

While their circular defense line was like a leaf boat that could capsize at any moment in the stormy seas.

The mixed troops of Cyan Dragon Gang fighters and engineering personnel, though brave.

The difference in numbers was truly vast.

The number of Destiny Ghosts was at least five times theirs.

This time it looks like it’s over...

Shen Zhou’s heart sank to freezing point.

City of Dawn... the future he and Deep Blue Heavy Industries had bet everything on...

Was it all going to be crushed at the very first city siege, before its shape could even be fully revealed, on the edge of this Ice Sea?

Commander Fang... where exactly are you?

You said you could hold it!

Just when Shen Zhou was about to be enveloped in despair.

"Gurgle... gurgle gurgle..."

A sound like numerous bubbles bursting simultaneously.

Exceptionally clear, it pierced through the thunderous battlefield clamour, reaching his ears.

The sound came from... behind!

The dark, surging Ice Sea, floating with giant icebergs.

Shen Zhou shivered abruptly.

He instinctively turned back to look.

The scene before his eyes made him forget to breathe instantly.

His pupils contracted into needlepoints in extreme shock.

Only to see, on the sea surface not far from the steel-framework silhouette of the City of Dawn, which was originally relatively calm, now boiling like it was scalded.

Countless bubbles of various sizes crazily surfaced and burst.

A large tract of dark-blue sea water swirling into chaos.

"Sea... Sea Destiny Ghosts?!"

A terrifying thought instantly gripped Shen Zhou.

Besieged by an army on land, ambushed by sea Destiny Ghosts?!

Attacked from both sides?!

This is fucking checkmate!

He was icy cold all over, almost trying to scream desperately, reminding his blood-soaked comrades fighting ahead.

However, just as he opened his mouth, about to let the sound escape...

"Splash——!!!"

A figure burst through the tumultuous waters.

Leaping into the sky like a nimble dolphin.

Spraying water droplets refracting cold glints under the strong light of the floodlights.

It was a... person!

A middle-aged man, dressed in a deep blue combat suit, holding a Water Dividing Spear, with a keen face.

He wasn’t alone.

Following him!

"Splash! Splash! Splash——!!!"

Like dumplings being boiled.

Countless figures broke through the churning sea surface, leaping into the sky.

Ten! A hundred! A thousand! Ten thousand!

Dense, like the mythical aquatic army stepping on waves.

They wore assorted clothing, some uniform, some ragged.

But without exception.

Radiating strong Qi Blood waves or energy aura.

The weakest were Tier Two Transcendents.

Among them, the leaders, their aura tremendously deep, had reached Tier Three level.

Such numbers.

Instantly forming a man-headed land on the sea surface next to the City of Dawn.

With more and more people continuously leaping out from the sea.

"Lingxiao Association’s bastards!"

The sturdy middle-aged man who first leapt from the sea, with the strongest aura.

His gaze sweeping like electricity across the gruesome battlefield on the shore, his face instantly filled with a violent killing intent and a trace of excitement?!

He raised the Water Dividing Spear in his hand fiercely, his voice booming like thunder:

"Kill with me——!!!"

"Kill!!!"

Behind him, thousands of fighters wearing unified deep blue clothing, with a fierce aura, roared in unison.

The soundwave instantly overshadowing the battlefield clamor.

They didn’t need any ships, their feet firmly treading on the undulating waves, kicking up a tremendous mist, charging violently towards the flank of the Destiny Ghost army on the shore.

Actions perfectly synchronized.

Almost simultaneously.

"Brotherhood, follow me! Don’t let Lingxiao Association steal the spotlight! This way!!"

In another part of the sea, a scar-faced giant with a bare upper body and a wheel-sized Giant Axe laughed wildly as he shouted.

Leading a group of equally fierce men, with a mix of weapons.

Like ferocious tigers unleashed, heading for the other side of the Destiny Ghost army.

"Blood Rose sisters! Form a line! Slaughter formation! Target, Central Force Charge!!"

A cold female voice sounded, leading a group of agile women dressed in red Leather Armor, under the leadership of a sword-wielding, cold and glamorous female leader.
