Chapter 90 The Coastline Falls
Chapter 90 The Coastline Falls
Faced with this sudden disaster, before Dong Qi and his team even arrived at the front-line command post, they saw dozens of military trucks, each carrying a full load of people, rushing towards the coastal area at an extremely fast speed.
The garrison's response speed was much faster than Dong Qi and his team had imagined.
Upon seeing this situation, Dong Qi and his group did not slow down, but they did change their direction.
Since the frontline command had already dispatched personnel to provide support, there was no point in them staying here any longer. So they continued on to Kyoto according to the original plan.
Because of the giant wave attack, not a single person was left who was responsible for guarding the coastal area. The coastal area has now been occupied by those mutated marine creatures.
Moreover, countless mutated marine creatures still thronged the sea, continuing to crawl ashore.
Those who came to provide support later hadn't even gotten close to the beach before they started fighting the mutated marine creatures right there on the road.
As the tide recedes, the weapons in the hands of the supporters are still able to kill the mutated marine creatures with a single shot.
Unfortunately, they had barely finished fighting those mutated marine creatures when another massive tsunami struck.
Although the battlefield was far from the coastline, the huge waves crashing against the ground directly hurled the mutated marine creatures in the water as ammunition from catapults into the battle zone.
Fortunately, at this time, humans were using firearms and did not use melee weapons to fight those mutated marine creatures at close range.
Therefore, upon discovering the approaching mutated marine creatures in the air, all participants immediately and decisively retreated.
While this method perfectly avoided the attack, the area that humans had defended was once again occupied by the mutated marine creatures that fell from the sky, reducing the area that humans could control by one again.
Faced with this situation, the frontline commander hesitated, unsure whether it was necessary to use high-intensity weapons to retake the lost area.
Before the frontline commander could make a decision, another giant wave appeared in the sea, throwing countless mutated marine creatures onto the battlefield.
Upon seeing this situation, the frontline commander immediately ordered a full retreat. Even if they quickly recaptured the lost area, it would likely be overrun by the mutated marine creatures again before long.
If you lose the land but the people, you lose both the land and the people.
If people are saved but land is lost, both people and land will be preserved.
As the frontline combat personnel retreated, the original coastal area was now completely occupied by those mutated marine creatures.
However, no one noticed that along with those mutated marine creatures that had been occupying the coastal area, clumps of plants resembling seaweed had grown on the originally barren beach.
Even though the plants grow very densely, the mutated marine creatures burrow into the seaweed as if they were going home with ease.
Because of the unexpected situation, Dong Qi and his group's journey seemed to be accelerated, heading towards Kyoto at top speed.
However, just as they were about to enter Kyoto, they were blocked by a temporary checkpoint that appeared directly on the road.
While sitting in his car, Dong Qi saw someone get off the bus and go over to communicate with the person in charge of the checkpoint.
For some unknown reason, they waited for about two hours before being allowed to pass. Dong Qi followed the bus slowly through the checkpoint.
As the vehicle passed through the checkpoint, they did not head directly to the central area of Kyoto, but continued north along the ring road.
Since Dong Qi didn't know the exact destination of this trip, he could only obediently follow behind the bus.
After driving for several more hours, the bus unexpectedly took Dong Qi into the mountains.
Dong Qi and his group did not venture deep into the mountains, but instead drove directly into a cluster of buildings on the outskirts of the mountains.
After parking the bus, Dong Qi watched as everyone on the bus got off and then immediately got off and mingled into the crowd to look for Shao Kai.
Shao Kai originally planned to go find Dong Qi after getting off the car, but he didn't expect to see Dong Qi already there as soon as he got off.
After Dong Qi walked up to him, Shao Kai whispered to Dong Qi, "Just stick close to me for now, and try not to speak at other times."
Seeing Shao Kai's serious expression, Dong Qi didn't respond but simply nodded in agreement.
The first thing the group did after getting off the bus was to take them directly to the hospital, where they underwent more than a dozen different tests under the guidance of the staff.
After these checks were completed, they were temporarily settled in a separate two-story building.
To prevent any accidents, they are allowed to move freely within the two-story building for three days, but they are not allowed to leave the building.
Because it was a special period, although we had prepared three days' worth of supplies for them in advance, we only prepared some compressed food. Although it could fill their stomachs, the taste was not worth mentioning.
Three days passed in a flash. Dong Qi had thought that, like in Qidong or the port, everyone would take turns being questioned.
But to everyone's surprise, only the highest-ranking person among them was taken away for questioning, while the others were released from restrictions and allowed to move freely.
Because among these people, apart from Dong Qi and two other teammates who were originally on the ship, the other dozen or so people had similar backgrounds to Shao Kai, and all had relatives in Kyoto.
So when they learned that their restrictions had been lifted and they had ten days of free time, they couldn't wait to leave and didn't want to stay there any longer.
Because the bus is an official vehicle, the only way to leave here and get to the city is to rely on Dong Qi's personal vehicle.
Perhaps because of their previous experience, they were all prepared to squeeze together this time.
But to their surprise, when they re-entered the carriage, they found that the interior space had expanded considerably.
At first, Shao Kai couldn't quite believe his eyes and thought he might be hallucinating.
But after he went in and out of the carriage several times, he realized that he was not hallucinating. The interior space of Dong Qi's carriage had actually expanded considerably.
Although he knew beforehand that the space inside Dong Qi's natal car had indeed been expanded under the influence of the awakened person's spatial ability.
But to everyone's surprise, after Dong Qi returned to shore, the space inside the car expanded again.
However, Shao Kai not only readily accepted this situation, but also helped Dong Qi explain the reason for the expansion of the car's interior space to others.
With Shao Kai's explanation, the others also accepted the fact that the expansion of Dong Qi's car interior space was caused by the supernatural abilities of the awakened individuals in the research institute.
