Night of the Apocalypse

Chapter 643: A flash of inspiration

Views:

Soon after, Wu Di and others escaped to the alleys at the rear under the enemy's fierce firepower.

Basically, all those who escaped back were in a miserable state and covered in dust and dirt.

As for those who did not escape, they died on the battlefield without any surprise.

Shen Qiu took a quick look and saw that the casualties were extremely heavy.

At this time, General Tang Yi reported to Wu Di with a heavy heart.

"General, the statistics are in. We have lost a total of 643 people."

Even though only more than 600 people died, you have to know that each of these people is the elite among the elite, and each of them can stand on their own if they are placed in the lower-level troops.

Another point is that if there are too many casualties, even if we attack, it won’t be of much significance.

After hearing this number, Wu Di's eyes turned red. He angrily punched the wall of the building next to him, venting his anger and saying self-blamingly.

"It's all my fault. I didn't break down the wall with one punch! My brothers died in vain."

"General, it's not your fault. You have tried your best! It's just that the wall is too thick. No one can break it."

General Tang Yi was worried that Wu Di was blaming himself too much, so he quickly comforted him.

Wu Di raised his hand to interrupt Tang Yi and said in a deep voice.

"You don't have to comfort me. I won't be depressed because of this."

At this time, Shen Qiu, who was standing aside, sighed and asked.

"Take your time. The enemy's firepower is indeed ridiculously strong, and the defensive power of that city wall is also amazing."

But Shen Qiu actually wanted to say that Wu Di is also a monster!

He was able to make such a big dent in such a thick steel wall.

"No, we can't take our time! We don't have much time. Vice President Bai and Lu Yang can't delay for long. We must attack quickly."

Wu Di has also seen the defensive power of the city wall, and he also wants to take it slow, but the problem is that the current situation does not allow it!

"What should we do then?"

When Shen Qiu heard this, his head also hurt. This bone is not easy to chew!

In addition, time is tight and there is no extra time for trial and error.

If he hadn't been pulling those lightning towers just now, it would not be surprising if the number of casualties had tripled.

"I'll observe and see if there is any better solution."

Wu Di then walked towards the building next door.

Shen Qiu and General Tang Yi looked at each other and then followed.

A moment later, Wu Di on the top floor was observing the city wall in the distance with a telescope.

He pondered for a moment and then said to Tang Yi.

"Let the rocket vehicles and other long-range firepower find the right angle and try to attack the enemies and defensive weapons on the city wall."

"yes!"

Lieutenant General Lin Xuan responded respectfully.

Before long, a large number of rockets and grenades were fired at the city walls.

However, at this time, the mechanical guards, lightning towers, and close-range artillery on the city wall opened fire one after another, blowing up some threatening rockets.

The remaining attacks exploded sporadically in various areas on the city wall, without much effect.

Instead, it triggered the enemy's counterattack, and launching holes opened on the city wall.

Bang!

Missiles were fired one after another and flew towards the long-range weapons.

Boom!

Loud explosions were heard everywhere, and the continuous long-range attacks were interrupted.

Wu Di's face became even uglier when he saw this scene. It was obvious that the long-range fire coverage had no effect. Instead, it exposed their own position and attracted a counterattack.

Shen Qiu was also looking at the city wall in the distance with a frown, and at this moment he suddenly saw a flash of blue light.

At this moment Shen Qiu was stunned, and he looked carefully.

I saw that some of the circuits in the destroyed weapon barrels on the city wall were short-circuited.

A crazy idea flashed through Shen Qiu's mind, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

At this time, General Tang Yi said to Wu Di.

"It doesn't work, General. Long-range fire attacks are ineffective."

"I see."

Wu Di responded irritably.

"It's not completely ineffective. At least it gave me an inspiration and I came up with a solution."

Shen Qiu said with a smile.

After hearing Shen Qiu's words, generals including Wu Di all looked at Shen Qiu and asked hurriedly.

"Shen Qiu, do you have a solution?"

"Yes, the method is actually very simple. The defensive weapons on the city walls are very powerful and very intelligent. But they all require electricity to operate, which is their fatal weakness."

Shen Qiu spoke directly.

Wu Di and others looked at Shen Qiu with confusion.

"We all know what you said? The question is what kind of weakness is this?"

"Are you stupid? As long as we can break through the wall and let the internal wiring leak out, I can forcibly absorb all the electrical energy, and then the weapons on the wall will be paralyzed."

Shen Qiu explained excitedly.

Admiral Tang Yi asked somewhat uncomfortably after hearing this.

"Mr. Shen Qiu, I know that people with lightning abilities can absorb electrical energy. But the degree of absorption is limited. We are facing a mechanical city, so there must be plenty of electrical energy. Are you sure there is no problem?"

"It should be fine. I have absorbed electricity from Clear Sky City and nearby areas before."

Shen Qiu responded with certainty.

When Wu Di heard Shen Qiu's answer, he immediately patted Shen Qiu on the shoulder.

"That's great, let's do it!"

"The problem is that we need to break through the city wall and find a thick enough line, which is a bit troublesome."

Shen Qiu said after pondering for a while.

"Leave this to me. The two of us will rush over and I will be responsible for destroying the wall."

Wu Di said directly, patting his chest.

"General, isn't this too risky? How about we go with you?"

Tang Yi and the others' faces changed slightly. Although Wu Di was very strong, they dared not let Wu Di take the risk alone.

"No need to say anything, Shen Qiu and I will rush forward, it will be more convenient to advance and retreat! As for you all, please stand by and take action based on the situation."

Wu Di directly rejected the proposal of Tang Yi and others.

"All right!"

Seeing that Wu Di was so determined, Tang Yi and others had no choice but to agree.

Soon everything was ready. Shen Qiu and Wu Di touched the edge as much as possible. They observed it and saw nothing unusual, so they looked at each other.

In an instant, Shen Qiu and Wu Di burst out with strength and rushed towards the city wall at an extremely fast speed.

At this moment, the weapon system on the city wall was directly activated. The lightning tower flashed with terrifying lightning, and the mechanical guards on it raised their weapons one by one.

Bang!

The attack was like a storm, pouring down madly on Shen Qiu and Wu Di.

Boom!

Huge explosions continued to rise.

In the smoke, Shen Qiu was seen activating the Instant Thunder Shadow, which was like a blue light, flashing quickly and completely impossible to capture.

As for Wu Di, he was much simpler and more brutal. He stomped the ground hard and rushed out like a cannonball. Even if he was hit, he would just take it head-on.

At this time, Tang Yi and others in the back were watching this scene, their hearts were in their throats, and they dared not breathe.

In a blink of an eye, the two rushed to the bottom of the city wall.
