The Ultimate War Of The Apocalypse-Chapter 658 - 651 Oh My God

Ever since we entered the apocalypse, nuclear bombs had lost their value.

The Russians had been recklessly detonating nuclear bombs on their own territory, followed by Shenzhou, and indeed, it seemed any country with nuclear weapons had probably taken them out for a spin.

Even if they couldn’t be launched by rockets, detonating the nuclear bombs on the ground was still an option. In the face of a crisis that threatened extinction, the side effects of nuclear weapons were no longer a concern.

And Ram did have nuclear weapons at his disposal. During the battle with the Sanitation Workers, he had restrained himself from using nuclear weapons, but when he realized there might soon be no more chances to use them, Ram did not hesitate to opt for nuclear strikes—and once he started, he couldn’t stop.

Especially the small tactical nuclear weapons, which were a must-use whenever possible.

So, seeing the nuclear explosion in the direction of Djibouti City, Gao Yuan knew for sure that Ram had used nuclear bombs again.

However, this particular nuclear detonation was slightly too far to effectively damage the monsters besieging Gao Yuan, but if Ram was planning to clear a path with nuclear bombs, pushing all the way to Gao Yuan’s location, then it made perfect sense.

Gao Yuan could no longer afford to think about these things now.

The monsters, due to their suppression by rank, hesitated to continue their assault, leading to a brief period of calm. But as soon as the artillery fired and the nuclear bomb detonated, the monsters immediately found a new outlet.

The monsters began to disperse to both sides, and Gao Yuan stood on the roof of the vehicle, still maintaining high alertness.

His vision went dark in waves, and Gao Yuan knew he could not hold on much longer, but the number of monsters around him was still overwhelming, and their presence was frightening—so he couldn’t fall.

Reinforcements had arrived, but their presence had not completely turned the tide; the crisis not only persisted but also had the potential to drag down the approaching reinforcements.

Over there was still a Colossal Worm, which had not moved at all.

The sound of machine guns began to ring out, indicating that the monsters were close enough to be engaged with machine-gun fire.

For a moment, the gunfire was extremely dense, and finally, more artillery support came from the direction of Djibouti.

Focusing artillery fire on a specific area for intensive shelling was relatively easy to achieve. The number of reinforcements inside Djibouti City was not small, but the main forces in Djibouti City were still not entirely reliable. Moreover, those who could come to support in the shortest time were still in the minority.

After all, there was not enough time, and Djibouti City had been preparing for a siege until now. The sudden change in combat objectives and area was not something everyone could immediately adapt to.

If it had been according to the initial number of monsters, the troops joining the battle now would have been completely overwhelmed by the monster horde at the first encounter. But with over ninety percent of the monsters eliminated, the situation was different.

The main force of the Serpent People had been depleted, allowing humanity’s firepower to have a chance to come into play.

The sounds of artillery and gunfire drew closer, and the number of monsters surrounding Gao Yuan began to decrease. But the dense crowd of beasts could not dissipate immediately—even as they turned to fight by instinct, it took time for the crowd to disperse.

The gunfire began to thin out, and the sound of artillery was no longer as frequent as it had been at the beginning, but it was definitely getting closer.

Finally, the night sky was abruptly illuminated once again, though for only a brief moment, before another mushroom cloud rose into the air.

The Ram had used tactical nuclear weapons again, with a yield probably no more than five kilotons, exploding less than two thousand meters from Gao Yuan.

The moment he saw the flash, Gao Yuan knew what was coming, but he was no longer able to take any more protective action. So, he immediately lay flat on the ground.

To avoid being blown away by the shock wave was all that Gao Yuan needed to do. He believed that at this distance, the nuclear blast’s shock wave would not immediately take his life, but it was certainly powerful enough to send him flying like a kite.

With spikes piercing his body, lying prone on the ground made him feel like a broken rag doll, especially when he felt a hot gust of wind sweep over him, and even more so when he tried to stand up.

Gao Yuan struggled several times but couldn’t get to his feet. However, when he felt that there seemed to be more around him, he immediately stood up with the support of an Armored Beast’s hind leg. Sure enough, the monsters driven by the Serpent People were stirring, their vigorous assault renewed.

But the moment Gao Yuan stood up, the humanoid monsters and the larger beasts that had been edging forward immediately began to retreat.

Finally, Gao Yuan watched a hairy monster seem to spin around and start running away. Right after, he heard continuous gunfire and the sound of tank cannons firing. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

Screams were incessant, and Gao Yuan couldn’t help but glance over. He saw a tank at the front, seemingly undamaged. But when a Spear Monster leaped onto the tank’s roof, pounding and jumping on it until even the cannon barrel was bent upwards, Gao Yuan knew that these monsters were incredibly strong.

Unlike the Armored Beast, however, these hairy monsters were not impervious to bullets.

Large-caliber machine gun bullets knocked the hairy monsters down one after another—victory belonged to the humans this time.

This was not an ordinary battle, but it was fierce, far more intense than any war between humans. For in this kind of battle, neither side allowed any survivors. As long as one side wasn’t completely annihilated, the fight would not stop.

Another tank charged toward Gao Yuan, but mid-way, dozens of humanoid monsters jumped on top of it. A giant beast caught up and flipped the tank over. A swarm of unnameable monsters quickly surrounded the tank, and whatever methods they used, it would soon be utterly silenced.

But the number of tanks in this battalion far exceeded Gao Yuan’s expectations. After the vanguard tanks had stopped advancing one by one, more tanks at the back, with their headlights on, were coming this way.

Now, non-tracked vehicles could hardly move at all because for kilometers around, the ground was covered with a thick layer of monster corpses. The wheeled vehicles were simply immobile.

Finally, when a shell whistled past him, Gao Yuan knew that his reinforcements had finally arrived. They were really here, right beside him.

Centered around Gao Yuan, there were especially many monster corpses, with the highest pile reaching over two meters. The bodies of the humanoid monsters were stacked layer upon layer, and even for tanks, it was strenuous to approach.

Finally, a tank’s cannon barrel smashed through a layer of monster corpses, and then the massive tank surged up the pile of bodies. As the corpses could not bear the weight of the tank and rapidly collapsed, the tank barreled over the obstacle, its cannon plunging down once more.

Then, the tank stopped, and after a brief moment, someone poked their head out from the hatch on top of the vehicle, and he exclaimed, "My God..."
