Chapter 440: Interception

The arrival of dawn dispersed the light of the moon cocoon.

Many people stayed up all night, looked up at the clear sky with fatigue and fear, and then continued to work busy.

Residents who migrate to the shelters will inevitably encounter friction, unrest, and even disease and vicious incidents. If left unchecked, the interior of the shelter will probably collapse before the enemy descends from the sky.

The Special Affairs Bureau does not have enough energy to manage so many shelters, and they don’t even have any staff deployed in the shelters.

The main personnel are now either on standby in Saga Prefecture or assisting military engineers in deploying CIWS everywhere.

In terms of time, there are only 12 hours left.

Tonight is destined to be another sleepless night, and the sky may be covered with flames.

Many nearby naval forces that could come to support have already cruised to the nearby waters, ready to assist in the battle.

At the same time, it also means that once the situation is out of control, force will be used at all costs to completely eliminate possible threats within Japan and prevent their disorderly spread.

This was an agreement Noguchi reached secretly with various countries.

It is precisely because of this condition that various countries are willing to come here at the risk of suffering losses in their fleets.

No one dared to gamble whether the purpose of those beings that fell from the sky was just to occupy Japan. After all, judging from the style of the Mother Goddess’s integration, they did not seem like good people.

Even if we don’t judge by his behavior, his style alone makes him look like a villain, a common enemy of all mankind.

It’s only natural that we should provide some support.

The best outcome for them is that the Special Affairs Bureau is severely damaged and all the extraordinary people are almost lost, but the monsters are also eliminated, so that the world can gradually return to normal.

Time passed little by little.

It feels both long and fast, and for a moment it is hard to tell whether this is the longest day or the shortest day.

“coming.”

The night gradually falls.

There is still a ray of light at the end of the world, but it can no longer penetrate the sky in front of us.

From Hokkaido to Kyushu Island, the sunsets come to an end one by one.

“Eight million gods, please allow our nation to survive forever.”

“God, please bless us to see the sun tomorrow.”

“Amitabha, Amitabha.”

“Life and death are determined by fate, and blessings are bestowed upon the infinite heavenly master.”

“God bless us.”

All gods and Buddhas from all sides worked overtime, and were forced or helplessly involved.

“The ‘Moon Blood’ target group has been observed to have breached the Karman Line. Please authorize interception operations.”

“This is Takeshi Noguchi, confirming authorization.”

“.Start interception.”

As the confirmed order was issued, military camps and missile systems across Japan that had been on standby for a long time launched high-altitude interception missiles into the air one after another.

Orange-red flames streaked across the sky and headed in the direction locked onto the system.

Sometimes, long traces would suddenly appear in the smoke from the tail flame that had not yet dissipated. Those were Japan’s only few experimental electromagnetic cannons that were also put into battle.

Unlike the meteors that intercept missiles and travel in the opposite direction, real “meteors” have gradually begun to appear in the human field of vision.

“The first wave of interceptor missiles has reached the designated altitude!”

near the Karman line.

Many satellites captured a scene that looked like something out of a movie or TV show.

One after another, the airdrop pods, which seemed to be made of flesh and blood, were densely packed towards the archipelago on the earth.

Although they are several meters or even more than ten meters apart from each other, this distance is insignificant in the vast sky.

Not to mention that there are tens of thousands of them, gathered together like a red rope, strangling the Japanese archipelago.

In the violent friction of the atmosphere, faint flames have appeared, but upon closer inspection, it can be found that these biological cabins are probably actively secreting some special mucus, making it difficult for these high temperatures to affect the interior of the biological cabin, which is already well insulated.

Until the high-altitude interceptor missile, which was traveling at a speed of Mach, smashed into one of the flesh and blood biological capsules, and before the contents inside could explode, the missile detonated according to the program.

The fireball instantly engulfed more than a dozen biological cabins within a hundred meters.

The fragments that flew out due to the impact instantly penetrated a cabin at a certain edge, causing it to suddenly lose balance and start rolling. The flesh and blood cabin quickly died and hardened, and the mucus could no longer be secreted, and it soon burned up in the friction of the atmosphere.

Crash.

The violent explosion caused significant interference to nearby satellites, causing the images to become shaky. Some satellites with poor anti-interference capabilities were directly turned into snowflakes.

On the ground, people could see a brief flash in the sky, like a star flickering, and everyone knew that the first missile had hit its target.

Then, the sky was twinkling with stars.

But the distance there was too high, and there was almost no sound reaching the ground. People could only rely on the flashing of the spotlight to imagine the intensity of the battle.

Unfortunately, these waves of attacks soon came to an end. The high-altitude interception missiles launched from both domestic and foreign sources were always limited in number and could not completely defeat the tens of thousands of unidentified objects.

“The results are complete. The loss of ‘Monthly Blood’ is about 20%! Slightly lower than the planned target.”

“‘Moon Blood’ target group enters the middle layer! Requesting authorization to initiate the second phase of interception operations!”

The officer’s words trembled slightly.

“This is Takeshi Noguchi, confirming authorization.”

Noguchi Takeshi’s calm reply gave the opposing officer some confidence.

The second wave of interceptor missiles was launched, this time with a larger number. If you look down from the sky, you can see flames rising from the entire northwest Pacific coast and heading towards the sky.

People could see meteors formed by the burning of the falling bio-capsule.

If it had nothing to do with destruction, this would probably be the most beautiful meteor image many people have ever seen in their lives.

Literally, it hits you in the face.

The stars in the sky had long been completely obscured by the burning meteors, and had become a dark background wall.

The only thing that can appear on this grand stage is the meteor shower that is worthy of this title.
With a missile umbrella to intercept meteor showers.

Rumble.

The blooming of expensive fireworks interrupted the brilliance of the shooting stars.

It seemed as if mankind’s scientific creation wanted to release all the frustration of being repeatedly defeated and helpless in the face of the extraordinary over the years, and it lit up the sky of Japan at that moment.

“These things are evading?!”

“They are learning that these damn beasts are using biological abilities to evolve ballistic evasion algorithms?!!”

The second wave of interception was neither long nor short. As the day ended in the darkness, the sky was still filled with blazing meteors.

What made the observatory disheartened was that they found that this wave of interception was far from the predicted results. Such a large-scale interception only caused 20% of the consumption.

“The moon blood is about to break through the stratosphere and enter the ozone layer!”

“We…we have almost no means of interception.” “We tried our best.”

“Your mission is complete. Enter the next stage. Please protect the people and activate the final agreement, [Amaterasu].”

“Yes!”

Noguchi took a deep breath, and instead of looking up at the shooting stars, he looked at the moon cocoon in the distance.

It is experiencing its final moonquake.

Waves spread outward from it as the center, layer by layer, like ripples on a pond.

“This thing is about to break out of its cocoon.”

Noguchi covered his heart with his hands. When facing this moon cocoon, he felt excited as if he was facing a fellow creature, but also felt disgusted as if he saw an enemy. It was a very contradictory feeling.

Until now, he could even feel the other person’s joy at being reborn, which really made him feel sick.

“Act according to the plan.” Noguchi turned sideways and said to Takashima beside him.

“Yes.”

Takashima gripped his weapon tightly and began to contact the teams deployed in various places.

Noguchi’s plan was simple and crude. To sum it up, he divided people into two groups based on their combat effectiveness.

One group is mainly responsible for dealing with the Moon Cocoon, and the other group is responsible for dealing with the unknown existence that breaks through the defense line and enters the ground.

After all, if you are weak in fighting against the thing that broke out of the cocoon, you will just die. It would be better to help stop the harassment from those unknown creatures.

The only ones qualified to deal with the “Chosen One” are him, Ye Jie, Mr. Li, and the combination of Hasamu and Carlos who successfully summoned half a dragon in the Tokyo Demon Incident.

But before the battle began, Ye Jie clearly told him that she had not yet accumulated enough power to allow the angel to descend again, so even if Hasamu controlled the opponent this time, it would be difficult to kill him with one blow.

“It’s almost time, let’s set off.”

Noguchi Takeshi waited for the main force and flew towards Yuejian with everyone.

“Naimai, take good care of yourself and make good use of your invincible ability to predict the future.” Hasamu gave Naimai many instructions before leaving.

“My ability to predict things here is greatly disturbed.” Naimai shook her head helplessly, “But you, don’t be so stubborn.”

“Don’t worry, it won’t happen. I’m leaving now! Old Ka, let’s join forces again. I’ll tell you a secret. The white dragon is actually my teacher. As long as I summon it, I guarantee…”

Hasam’s voice gradually faded away.

Naimai turned her head and looked at the orange-red sky filled with meteor showers.

In fact, she lied.

She did see a fragment of the future, but
Naimai put her mind at ease and flew towards the gathering point.

Woohoo——

The shrill air raid sirens sounded.

This means that the moon blood has successfully broken through the ozone layer and entered the troposphere.

The unmanned air defense Phalanx close-in defense guns deployed in various locations vigilantly patrol the airspace, ready to fight at any time.

“Cooperate with each other, don’t be reckless, use all the knowledge you have learned in the academy, and survive first before you are qualified to discuss other things. Do you understand?”

Louis led a group of nervous trainee divine warlocks with a serious expression on his face.

Although the teaching method of the Heaven Node can hardly be called cruel, but after taking into account the growing evil forces, Mr. Li still agreed to Louis’s application and pulled out the Divine Grace Warlocks who were still learning to see blood in actual combat.

Unleash their potential in advance.

As for the unfortunate event of dying during the process, one can only accept the result with great pain.

But in order to avoid this situation, the escort is also quite luxurious.

There are two veteran warlocks, Louis and Naimai, as well as three outstanding warlocks, Hunter, Mosaic, and Cowboy. Uh, there is also Ziwei, but he has not shown any special combat ability, so he is generally not included.

“Here we come, get ready.”

Naimai didn’t look up, and was calm as if she was declaring something.

Just one second after she finished speaking, the nearby close-in defense artillery tore through its cold camouflage and erupted with a blazing roar.

The terrifying speed of hundreds of rounds per second makes the barrel heat up almost instantly.

Countless tracer bullets guided the targets in the sky. The flesh and blood cabins that almost blended into the night could not escape the lock of the AI ​​system. Almost every minute, a cabin was destroyed, exploding into balls of blurry flesh and blood.

Oh!

Boom!
Gaps were smashed into the buildings, the ground turned into holes, and countless houses were smashed and collapsed.

Even under such dense defense, there was still a steady stream of flesh and blood airdrop pods that broke through layer after layer of defense and finally reached their destination.

Earth!

“fighting!”

Louis didn’t even plan to see what would crawl out of the pit. Even if two aliens speaking Japanese crawled out, he would still beat them!
Two wind blades were involved, and the group of apprentice warlocks behind him also threw a few basic wind blade attacks. Then, a faint roar was heard from the pit, and then there was no movement.

“It’s so simple–woohoo!”

Before an apprentice warlock could finish his words, his body felt lighter as if he was lifted up by something. Upon closer inspection, he saw that it was actually an enormous crow!

A small hole suddenly appeared on the ground where he was originally standing, revealing a long, saw-like mouth.

The other apprentice sorcerers who were originally near him reacted quickly and quickly distanced themselves from Naimai as he delayed them.

“Uh, is it Mr. Shiwei?”

“Ah.”

“Thank you, thank you!”

“You’re welcome.”

Ziwei put him in a safe place and continued to hover in the sky.

He felt a little heavy.

Because from this moment on, he has felt that there are many more souls waiting to be guided throughout Japan.

In other words, many people have died instantly.

Perhaps a shelter was captured by the monsters that landed first, or perhaps a subway tunnel was penetrated.
Seeing that the close-in defense gun seemed to have targeted him as well, Ziwei quickly transformed back into a normal-sized crow and continued to protect the people on the ground to the best of his ability.

More and more flesh and blood cabins successfully landed on the ground, and ugly creatures with green skin, which seemed to have a hint of human appearance but made humans instinctively hate, appeared one by one on the battlefield.

They look similar, but they are actually quite different. If we have to say one thing in common, it is that they are both extremely ugly.

They look like humanoid creatures that have failed to be transformed.

“Restore the glory of mankind!”

The monster uttered unclear words that people could not understand, waving its twisted limbs and rushing towards the nearest close-in defense gun.

“Stop it!”

The Special Affairs Bureau’s close-in artillery defense team immediately went on alert and intercepted any monster that dared to approach.
