True Apocalypse Game

The advantage of the Electromagnetic Railgun was its almost perfectly straight trajectory. With radar targeting from tens of kilometers away, it could hit whatever it aimed at.

The white light of the metal projectile shot forward like a sharp sword, instantly crossing tens of kilometers to strike the massive tentacle’s wound, blasting deep inside!

THUD!

A muffled sound of exploding flesh echoed out. The point of impact was the very same gash created by the Eagle Country fighter jet’s suicide attack.

Without the protection of its carapace, the Electromagnetic Kinetic Energy Bullet drove straight in. In an instant, it tore a gash twenty to thirty meters wide in the fifty-meter-thick tentacle, nearly piercing all the way through!

In terms of area, this single Electromagnetic Kinetic Energy Bullet had basically sliced through one-third of the giant tentacle.

The tentacle, which had been relentlessly dragging the aircraft carrier, clearly recoiled in pain. It began to tremble and sway, flinging the massive Nimitz-class aircraft carrier aside as it tried to retract into the deep sea.

But it was too late!

The Electromagnetic Railgun had already locked onto the tentacle’s wound. In a flash, several more streaks of white light shot out—a full five Electromagnetic Kinetic Energy Bullets, piercing through the gash one after another!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! The tremendous sound of explosions, combined with the roar of the Kinetic Energy Bullets breaking the sound barrier, rang out. Their furious speed finally blasted a cross-section through ninety percent of the massive tentacle, leaving it connected by only a sliver of flesh and skin.

The tentacle’s owner clearly felt excruciating pain. It thrashed and trembled, its movements slowing considerably.

Just as it was about to sink beneath the waves, the surrounding warships of the other nations also spotted the weakness. Cannons and missiles fired in unison, and countless explosives converged on the tentacle’s wound in a series of violent detonations.

The tentacle was completely engulfed by the flames and shockwaves of the explosions.

At the same time, the final Kinetic Energy Bullet shot out, heading straight for the tentacle within the flames.

The next moment, everyone felt a low hum emanating from the seabed, as if something was letting out a howl.

The vibration from this howl was so intense that it jammed all sonar in the area, making it impossible to observe the situation on the seafloor for a moment.

All the soldiers present, as well as the high-ranking officials and citizens watching the scene unfold on their screens, held their breath, waiting for the smoke, flames, and steam to disperse.

Finally, the smoke and steam generated by the high-temperature explosions dissipated, revealing the state of the sea where the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier was located.

On the surface of the sea, the aircraft carrier, battered and dented from the tentacle’s grasp, had resurfaced.

At the same time, a black shadow emerged from the depths. A tentacle, hundreds of meters long and about fifty meters in diameter, also floated to the surface, kicking up monstrous waves and releasing large gushes of green blood that stained the surrounding water a vibrant emerald.

Viewed from the air, the entire sea region looked like a green gem embedded in the ocean.

It was a severed section of the tentacle!

Meanwhile, the panoramic sonar image was restored. The tentacle that had extended from the Space Wormhole was now gone, having apparently retracted to the other side of the wormhole.

Judging from the energy readings, the wormhole, which had been held open by a powerful energy source, had now closed again!

The mighty Exotic Giant Beast had been driven away!

Humanity had won!

Cheers immediately erupted from the fleets of all nations in celebration of this victory.

The public, who had been anxiously following the outcome of the naval battle on screens and elsewhere, also broke into cheers.

Humanity had won its first battle against an Exotic Giant Beast, driving off the terrifying monster!

On Twitter, the Eagle Country President also posted several tweets in a row, expressing his excitement:

"Through the heroic efforts of the Eagle Country Navy, and with the cooperation of our allies, we have successfully repelled this monster from the Exotic Realm! Victory belongs to humanity! Victory belongs to Eagle Country!"

"You can all see the terrible consequences of the Democratic Party Members’ cuts to our military spending! If our fleet had also been equipped with Electromagnetic Railguns, the outcome would have been completely different! Now, even in victory, we must bury our heroic soldiers. For this, Pelosi and the Democratic Party Members under her leadership bear undeniable responsibility!"

"We will not only build a wall in Mexico, but we will also build a wall on the seabed! We will build a wall on this side of the wormhole to block anyone who dares to threaten our wonderful way of life!"

"At the same time, I trust our Hua Country friends will recognize the sacrifices made by the soldiers of the Eagle Country Navy and give us our fair share. In the face of a common enemy, we must work together. Let’s make Eagle Country great again! Make humanity great again! And make the Democratic Party Members shut up!"

"..."

In the command room of the Shandong-class aircraft carrier, floating on the surface of the Wormhole Sea Region, Zhao Weiguo did not join the crowd in cheering and relaxing. Instead, he stared at the devastated, Hell-like sea before him, lost in thought.

A flicker of concern crossed his eyes.

An entire Eagle Country Fleet was nearly wiped out, and an inferior Canada Fleet was also buried at sea. All that just to repel the Exotic Giant Beast.

And they had only managed to sever one of its tentacles.

’It’s like lopping off one of an octopus’s arms. It didn’t cause any real damage.’

’This thing might not come back for now, but who knows when it will reappear.’

’If that undersea wormhole continues to expand and the Exotic Giant Beast’s entire body comes through, can humanity really stop it?’

’That’s a super beast several thousand meters long, far beyond human imagination, and it lurks in the sea.’

Zhao Weiguo quickly replayed the attacks the beast’s tentacle had sustained in his mind, and finally, he let out a slight sigh of relief.

’We should still be able to stop it.’

’After all, that tentacle was extremely cunning. The vast majority of attacks missed it.’

’The effectiveness of the final suicide attack by the jet and the Electromagnetic Railgun proves this thing isn’t invincible.’

’If humanity comes prepared next time and sets a trap right here, the problem won’t be that big.’

’And if we really can’t handle it, we can still resort to nuclear weapons.’

Having figured this out, Zhao Weiguo relaxed a little.

"Commander, what are our orders? Please advise," his second-in-command asked from the side.

Zhao Weiguo then realized that after the beast disappeared, although the surrounding warships of various nations were all celebrating, none of them had made a rash move to clean up the battlefield or collect the spoils of war.

All the warships were waiting for the Hua Country Fleet to make its move.

As long as Hua Country didn’t move, they didn’t dare to.

Times had changed.

After all, the Eagle Country Fleet was annihilated, and the Hua Country Fleet possessed the Electromagnetic Railgun that had dealt the decisive blow to the Exotic Giant Beast. The Hua Country’s Shandong was now the top dog here. The other fleets naturally looked to Hua Country to take the lead.

Even the Russian Fleet, usually so arrogant, seemed much more humble. The black smoke billowing from the Kuznetsov even seemed to have thinned out.

Zhao Weiguo sighed, looked at the dozen or so Eagle Country fighter jets still circling in the sky, unable to land, and said:

"Send a signal to the Eagle Country carrier-based aircraft. Tell them they can temporarily land on our aircraft carrier. These men are warriors; we can’t just let them run out of fuel and crash into the sea..."

Then he looked at the surrounding warships and continued to give orders:

"Have the supply ships go and tow the beast’s tentacle. As for the remaining fragments floating in the sea, let everyone else take what they want. No need to be polite. They can all take them back for research."

With the order given, several warships immediately set out from the Hua Country Fleet and began to tow the tentacle, which was hundreds of meters long, fifty meters in diameter, and looked like a small mountain floating on the sea.

As for the other fragments and pieces, they didn’t bother with them.

"Old Zhao, if we do this, won’t the other countries be upset? Especially Eagle Country, they had it pretty rough this time..." the ship’s captain said with some concern.

The greatest spoil of war, naturally, was this complete section of the severed tentacle.

The Eagle Country Fleet was almost completely wiped out. If all they ended up with were a few fragmented biological samples, they would probably be extremely dissatisfied.

Zhao Weiguo waved his hand and said:

"Immediately prepare to welcome the Eagle Country pilots aboard. Greet these heroes with the grandest ceremony, broadcast it globally, and give them the highest honors. Also, begin rescuing the wounded from the Eagle Country Fleet and recovering the bodies, all with the utmost respect... Their President is very image-conscious, he’ll love it. You’ll see when you check his Twitter in a bit."

"As for this tentacle, we must take it whole..." Zhao Weiguo lowered his voice, looking at the beast’s tentacle being towed outside as he muttered to himself:

"After all, this is a gift I’ve prepared for the Commander..."
