Chapter 2060: Battle potential (2)
The intelligence obtained was that there were 5,500,000 parasites in Mei City. This did not mean simply having the Exquisite Floating Balls take some photos, and everyone making an estimate to arrive at.
That would be too irresponsible, completely treating the lives of Cloud Peak people as a joke.
That conclusion was reached after many rounds of continuous reconnaissance, identification, and analysis.
Although Mei City was already a ruined city, many buildings remained. The parasites would not obediently stay in open areas for you to count. Inside various buildings, many, many were hidden. If only looking from the outside, having one or two million would be impressive.
Five million five hundred hundred thousand, that was the figure estimated through multiple comparative analyses and even deliberate provocation and luring.
But now, apart from a large number of parasites gathering at the city's edges, there were even more in the dark corners of the city that had not yet appeared. Xia Lei was waiting for the moment they would emerge.
When the battle began, these creatures frantically rushed out of their hiding places, charging into the surrounding area. The magic crystal cannons also began to roar at that moment.
The annihilation-type magic crystal cannons had the longest range, so they were responsible for the central part of the city. The other magic crystal cannons placed their firing points in other areas in layers.
Currently, Cloud Peak used level-six magic crystals as energy for the annihilation-type magic crystal cannons. At a time when the average level of post-apocalyptic evolved was only five stars, this was considered extravagant.
