A situation like this, where the entire screen was red, was something never been seen before.

In the sky above the city wall, Captain Zhou stared at the translucent screen in his hand. He moved the screen upwards slightly, and the background faced the distant sky.

Because of the change in the background, the red screen suddenly flickered, and one could vaguely see that the inside of the red light screen seemed to be moving slowly.

"This is!"

Captain Zhou's eyes widened as if he had seen something terrifying and unbelievable.

"What's the matter, Old Zhou?"

Old Liu, standing beside him, looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Demons! They're all demons!"

Captain Zhou looked terrified. He grabbed Old Liu's arm, and his body couldn't help but tremble.

"What are you talking about?"

Old Liu furrowed his brows as he watched Captain Zhou gesticulate on the screen.

Slowly, he seemed to have discovered something, and his expression also became extremely frightened.

"How can this be? How is that possible?"

They fell into a state of speechlessness. They grabbed each other and felt an unprecedented sense of panic.

They realized the red screen was not because the satellite had malfunctioned but because countless demons had piled up and buried all the cracks. That was why the demon mark, which should have appeared in red, had become blood red that covered the whole screen!

Their reactions were transmitted to the others through the communicator. Gradually, more people realized what was going on.

Soon, the entire eastern defense line's command center was in an uproar.

"What's going on? Didn't they say that the demon army was only estimated to number around ten million? You're f*cking telling me this is a ten-million-level demon wave?"

"Everyone, please calm down. The data we've collected only includes those with the combat power of Silver Practitioner and above. If we count the low-level demons, it's indeed a huge demon wave. But it doesn't matter. The demons below the silver tier can't do any damage to our energy barrier. Even if a billion of them came, it wouldn't matter!"

Some people were agitated, while others stood up to comfort.

But just as they said those words of comfort, someone jumped out to refute.

"Do you think we're idiots? The low-orbit satellite's detection target was at least silver tier! Take a good look! Those are all Silver Practitioner and above demons!"

"This is only the first stage of the scan. We've already discovered more than 300 million demons above Silver Practitioner level!"

"F*ck! Did no one pay attention to the real threat? At this moment, over 500 demons of the Immortal Realm gathered in the northern and eastern directions! That's 500 f*cking Celestial Realm demons!"

The atmosphere in the eastern defense line was heavy.

Although the meeting was held through the communication device, everyone's anger and fear almost rushed out of the screen.

The detection data was undoubtedly terrifying.

The initial estimate of 10 million demons had suddenly become hundreds of millions, and the Immortal Realm demons had also soared to five hundred.

Such a situation was definitely a disaster for Ocean City.

"The latest scan results are out!"

"Eh? What's the situation in the southwest? There seems to be an abnormal energy fluctuation!"

"Change the scanning path and conduct a detailed investigation!"

The data from the first round of scanning was rather rough. To obtain more detailed data, they need to repeat it many times.

While everyone complained in fear, the new data from the scan quickly shifted their attention.

It was at the edge of the southwest defense line, almost out of Ocean City's control. It was thousands of miles away from the urban area, and even the low-orbit satellites could only get a vague picture of it.

After adjusting the satellite, they soon had more scanning resources, and the situation in the southwest became clearer.

"It's a flying warship!" Someone exclaimed in surprise.

Through the energy map sent by the satellite scan, it was not difficult to see that under the bombardment of many red dots, there was a small cluster of other energy, which were the symbols of the standard flying warship.

"Could it be that our reinforcements have arrived?"

It was abnormal for a flying warship to suddenly appear in the depths of the demon army.

The first thing that came to everyone's mind was that the reinforcements had arrived and were launching an attack on the rear of the demon army.

However, this one-sided thought was quickly destroyed.

"No, those warships are coming from Ocean City!"

Captain Zhou was the first to react.

According to the situation transmitted back by the satellite, although the shadow of a fleet had appeared in the depths of the demon army, there were no other energy fluctuations in the surroundings.

It was a lone fleet.

The outside world had been surrounded by demons, so the fleet could only have flown from Ocean City.

The other high-level personnel also quickly realized that the situation was not right.

"What's going on? Sending a warship out at such a critical moment, isn't that just suicide?"

"I'm afraid the fleet was not sent out just now."

Someone muttered, and everyone's faces immediately sank.

Everyone had their speculations.

"Immediately contact City Lord Wang!" A few high-level members of the local forces said through gritted teeth.

"My Lord, City Lord Wang's communication device cannot be connected!"

"Milord, we could not make contact with the southwest defense line!"

Not long after, the person in charge of communication reported to the high-level personnel in fear.

Everyone finally understood that they had been sold out by City Lord Wang.

"That bastard!"

"That damned guy! They fled in the face of battle!"

Whether it was the military personnel or the higher-ups of the local forces, they were all furious. They clenched their fists and gritted their teeth so hard that they almost broke.

They were no fools. The fact that they could not contact the southwest defensive line at this juncture meant that it had already been abandoned.

As for City Lord Wang and the others, they had seen that the situation was looking grim and had immediately fled in advance.

If they stayed, they might still have the strength to fight the demons. However, they wouldn't risk their lives for Ocean City.

"Detestable! I knew that those outsiders were unreliable!"

"What's the use of saying all this now? Let's hurry up and find a way to fill the gap in the southwest defensive line!"

Everyone's anger turned into deep worry.

If City Lord Wang was still by their side, they might have torn him apart at all costs.

However, City Lord Wang had already escaped, and the situation they were facing now could not even be described as a mess. It was more desperate.

"There's no other way. We're already at a disadvantage, and now there's that group of traitors. It's impossible to hold on."

A high-level member sat on the edge of the city wall with a pale face. Only despair could be seen in his eyes.

At the same time, the third wave of scanning data from the low-orbit satellites came back.

The same data appeared on everyone's screen.

[Detection data report: Number of Silver Level demons: 675,438,924.]

[Number of Immortal Realm demons: 729.]

[Warning: Energy fluctuations exceeding critical value detected. Quantity:2]

Silence. A deathly silence enclosed them.

All the higher-ups stared at the prompt on the screen in a daze.

The data from the third scan was more or less accurate.

"670 million..."

"729..."

The terrifying numbers were like a heavy hammer that struck everyone's heart.

However, this was not the most despairing fact.

Although the last warning was a simple sentence, it was like a death declaration written in the book of life and death. It made everyone feel they had fallen into the abyss and lost all hope.

Everyone present knew that the energy detection limit of the low-orbit satellite was enough to reach the Celestial Realm.

If one wanted to go beyond its detection limit, one had to be at least in the middle stage of the Celestial Realm!

The appearance of an energy fluctuation that exceeded the critical value meant two powerhouses at the middle stage of the Celestial Realm and above!

Now that Ocean City's defense had been drastically reduced, even a demon in the initial stage of the Celestial Realm would be a destructive disaster.

The two demons in the middle stage of the Celestial Realm had cut off all their escape routes.

They couldn't even escape.

[New communication request. Accept?]

Just as everyone was in despair, Captain Zhou's communicator suddenly rang.

He answered the call subconsciously, and a familiar voice came from the other end.

"Captain Zhou, the demons are much higher than the data you provided. I'd like to change my plan at the last minute. I hope you can assist me as much as possible."
