Each combat brigade consists of five combat regiments: east, south, west, north, and center. Each regiment has between 20,000 and 30,000 personnel.

Each combat regiment comprises several combat battalions, each with 2000 to 3000 personnel. Each battalion is responsible for the security of several cities, and each city has a company composed of 200 to 400 Awakened.

Each Awakener has reached the state of 'Source Turbulence', and each platoon leader must have awakened their 'ability' to serve as the platoon leader.

This is to achieve the goal of protecting the safety of all areas within the city.

At this time, in major cities in the southern combat zone, apart from leaving a portion of awakened individuals to ensure the basic safety of the cities, all combatants with awakened abilities were rapidly mobilized.

At this moment, the entire Xia Kingdom's system was fully operational. All traffic to the Bashu region was prohibited. Vehicles that were already in traffic were all stopped and pulled over to the emergency lanes under the urgent dispatch of the Traffic Management Bureau to make way for other vehicles.

High-speed rail, airplanes, and long-distance travel are all temporarily suspended for the general public and all supplies are allocated to combat personnel.

Those who went to Chengdu to fight were all beginner-level superhumans who had awakened their abilities; those who had not awakened their abilities were not qualified to go.

……

The Bashu region.

Chengdu

At this moment, the piercing sound of air raid sirens echoed through the streets of every district.

Woo-woo-woo-woo

People going about their daily lives as usual were quite surprised.

Busy office workers stopped what they were doing and went to the window to look out at the city. The large screen that had been playing advertisements on a loop turned bright red, and the words "Emergency Evacuation" scrolled on.

Cars on the busy streets came to a halt to the piercing air raid sirens, and drivers and passengers alike were startled and rolled down their windows to check the situation.

The men and women chatting on the street were startled by the shrill sound.

Patients in the hospital looked out of the windows opened by nurses, where emergency evacuation warnings were scrolling across the hospital's television screens.

The music playing in the mall where the event was being held was drowned out by the alarm, and shoppers were shocked to find that their own cell phones were also emitting piercing alarms.

Many people have encountered this kind of mobile phone alarm sound; it's an earthquake warning, notifying everyone to evacuate.

But this time it was different. One after another, official messages appeared on my phone, the same messages appearing one after another, as if afraid that they would not attract attention.

"What's going on! Is there a nuclear war?!" A young man who often watches military-themed short videos opened the official message with a look of horror.

[Attention all residents of Chengdu! Do not panic upon seeing this message. Please evacuate in an orderly manner under the national arrangement. Do not enter nuclear defense facilities. We have received intelligence that a powerful biological tide from another world will descend upon Chengdu. This place will become a battlefield in 24 hours. Please evacuate immediately under the national arrangement. Evacuate immediately.]

The reason for not entering the nuclear defense project is that the Beast Hounds can travel through space, and no one knows how destructive the Golden King Beast is. After all, it is a 'quasi-god level' beast, which is related to gods, and it puts too much pressure on Xia Kingdom.

The residents of Chengdu read the information amid a mix of surprise, fear, apprehension, and excitement.

"My God! It's an alien supernatural species that has descended! Like in Britain?! Quick, run! Get out of here! Driver, drive!"

"Panic? What's there to panic about! You think I don't want to drive? The car in front isn't moving!"

"Sichuan is turning into a battlefield! Hahaha, I don't have to pay my mortgage anymore."

"Could it be like the situation in Britain? I've seen those videos, they're terrifying!"

"Don't panic, what's there to panic about! The government will take care of things, just follow their instructions. Aren't there angels and such? The government has said that they will appear whenever a major disaster occurs."

"Yeah, there are not only angels but also God. The country also has an army of tens of thousands of superhumans. What's there to be afraid of? Besides, I've also awakened my willpower. If I encounter a monster, I'll knock it down with one punch."

After a brief period of panic, most residents calmed down, and some were even a little excited. People in the Sichuan and Chongqing region have historically been more optimistic than those in other regions.

Besides, panicking won't help now. Can we even escape? We should follow the government's instructions.

"Look, what's that? Holy crap! The country has even made a Gundam!"

"Dad, look at the humanoid exoskeleton armor!"

"Let me take a picture!"

"Why are you taking pictures? Record a video!"

"The official video was released before, something about a 3D robot that can even fly!"

At this moment, combatants wearing gravity suits were continuously broadcasting evacuation instructions, flying through the air with streams of fire behind them.

In this situation, ordinary traffic management is no longer feasible, so it is necessary to have more mobile combat personnel to direct traffic.

Lin Yong shouted in a powerful voice: "Traffic is now under the control of the special operations force! All vehicles, stop and sound your horns! Obey all commands and orders!"

The combat team directed operations from mid-air, while the original traffic management personnel below acted as their subordinates. These city traffic management personnel were also people who had awakened their 'willpower'; they whistled and gave commands with hand gestures.

"All vehicles must obey dispatch orders, and each vehicle should carry as many people as it can!"

People on the roadside were directed to get into vehicles, regardless of what kind of vehicle it was, as long as there was room to sit down—public transportation, private cars, trucks, they were allowed to carry as many people as they could.

At the same time, a large amount of information was sent to people's mobile phones, informing them where to go.

From the air, this city of over 20 million people appears remarkably well-organized, with all roads being one-way, leading out of the city.

People poured out of the high-rise buildings, got into cars, and vehicles stretched along the roads from the city's edge toward other cities.

The hard work of the staff at the Ministry of Communications and the Information Computing Center also played a crucial role in this.

The staff at the computing center used supercomputers to quickly calculate evacuation routes for each residential area, which were then converted into information and sent to each person's mobile phone by the communications department.

Most residents were very well-mannered for emergency evacuation and did not contradict the command and dispatch at this time.

"Hurry up! Two more people, get in my car! Otherwise, the people ahead will leave!" The driver of the van shouted at the people running out of the high-rise buildings, "Hurry up, you little devil!"

Other drivers were also shouting to the crowd, "I can fit two more people in here!"

When faced with disaster, the national characteristics of the Xia Kingdom were fully aroused at this moment, and everyone united as one in an instant.

On the other side.

Military aircraft took off from all over the country and headed towards Chengdu.

Inside a military transport plane, rows of gravity bodies stand upright in the cabin. The pilots, who are piloting these gravity bodies, sit solemnly to the side, chewing gum to relieve the pressure in their hearts.

They were well aware of what they were facing this time—a situation comparable to the British crisis, and the mental pressure was immense. Each of them had written a 'will' when they joined the combat team.

They are afraid of death, but not of sacrifice. After their sacrifice, the country will make good arrangements for their families.

"Gulp~ All the comrades piloting the gravity bodies have only trained once, less than three hours on average. Is this going to work?" Mo Cheng couldn't help but ask Tao Jing, who was sitting opposite them, in a low voice, feeling the heavy atmosphere.

Erica also said in a worried whisper, "Yes... the Elemental Bullet makes it easy to deal with the Devouring Beast, but the Abyss Monsters... we've tried them before, and they weren't very effective."

Jeff frowned and kicked Mo Cheng and Erica in the heels.

Tao Jing calmly looked at the two of them: "Your concerns are valid. We must do it even if it means sacrificing half of our people. If you're afraid of dying, you can go to the logistics department."

"Our main task is not to attack, but to ensure the safe evacuation of the people who have not yet been evacuated."

Evacuating a metropolis of 20 million people in 24 hours is impossible; their role is to delay the monsters from attacking civilians.

In this insurmountable crisis, the mysterious superhumans are the main characters.

Mo Cheng, seeing Tao Jing's calm gaze, shrank back and chuckled awkwardly, "Lieutenant Colonel, that's not what I meant. Of course, I'm not afraid to die." His voice then turned heavy, "It's just that using gravity manipulation in combat so soon after learning it might lead to too many casualties, I..."

Although he had only trained his comrades for a short day, they had already developed a deep bond, and he didn't want to never see them again after the mission ended.

He loved this place and everyone here. This period of time was unlike anything he had ever experienced in the previous half of his life. He didn't want to see anyone die, even though he had seen many of his companions die as a hunter.

Those who have never seen the light will cherish every moment they have after they do.

"..." Erica also looked down at her toes. Because she was small and looked like she was underage, every soldier took good care of her and treated her like a younger sister. Although she couldn't remember everyone's face, she couldn't help but feel sad when she thought about how some people would die in battle.

Since they arrived here, everyone has been incredibly kind to the four of them.

Tao Jing looked at the four dejected people and pursed her lips: "You don't want to see your comrades sacrifice themselves, right? Then become stronger, become very strong, obtain immortal runes, and master elemental power. Only then can you protect everyone you want to protect."

These four people from another world were more resilient than she had imagined, even somewhat unexpectedly. They awakened their abilities in just three days, which was enough to prove that they had kind and righteous hearts and cherished everyone, something that many combatants couldn't do.

Even if they are from another world, the higher-ups are willing to promote them.

The Xia Kingdom is not a country that values ​​bloodlines. If you are willing to stand up for this land, then you are a person of this land.

"Become stronger..." Mo Cheng clenched his fists tightly, his eyes sharp, and he gritted his teeth. Yes, all the tragedies and sacrifices were caused by the lack of ability of the people involved.

At the lighthouse, one can only keep one's sadness inside, but it's different here. Here there are gods and cultivation methods.

'I will make the gods in heaven see my determination to protect my companions!'

He was determined to attract the attention of the gods and be granted immortal markings. He really didn't want anyone to sacrifice themselves. It was one thing to be helpless in the Lighthouse, but he couldn't let it be like this in such a wonderful world!

Erica, Jeff, and Flying Snow clenched their fists. Such a beautiful world, such a beautiful home, such good comrades, must not be trampled on!

The other combatants in the cabin couldn't help but clench their fists upon hearing the conversation.

……

Seven small black dots stand on the clouds above Chengdu.

Los Saint simply opened the Anywhere Door here, and then gathered water elements to form a cloud on which one could stand.

“It’s hard to imagine that a city of twenty million people could be evacuated so gradually without much chaos.” Fukalos looked down at the massive city below the clouds: “The people of this country are incredibly united and orderly compared to other countries on the planet.”

Buyer said, "Xia is indeed the most orderly and stable country on this planet, and a large number of awakened people have even emerged among the people."

As the 'Goddess of the Internet,' no one knows the situation in countries all over the world better than her.

Bai Yuekui crossed her arms and said, "But at this speed, in such a short time, we can only evacuate at most half of the population." She was wearing a white women's trench coat, which was the shroud made by Joan of Arc.

Not only was it extremely sturdy, but it also eliminated the physical side effects caused by her injury and was able to continuously restore her physical and mental strength, allowing her to use her abilities without any worries.

With the addition of the 'Eye of God', she has no idea how powerful she would be if she went all out.

Of course, it can't compare to the two gods and the two heroes, but it can definitely kill the divine-equipped Meadow in an instant.

As for Los Santos? Who would compare his fighting strength to God's? There's absolutely no comparison.

"Buyer, how much of your prime have you recovered to?" Los Saint looked at the goddess beside him, whose expression remained as gentle as ever.

"It's recovered to 40%. With full force, we can expand the range of elemental power manipulation to the size of three Shu capitals," Buyer said gently. To recover to its peak, the World Tree would have to cover almost half of the Xia Kingdom's area.

'So powerful…' Fukaros opened her mouth but couldn't say anything. As expected of the first god, even at 40% of his peak, he was stronger than her now. She was at her peak right now.

Luo Sheng nodded and said seriously, "You two will assist me in capturing the Golden King Beast. It must be alive. I don't know if its power will disappear after I kill it."

At this point, he looked behind him and said, "Artoria, Jeanne, Bai Yuekui, and Maido, the four of you should deal with those Beast Realm Hounds. After all, they can open spatial rifts, so they're quite troublesome to deal with."

Although Artoria and Jeanne received a boost from the 'divine name', they are not 'god-level' under normal circumstances and can only be considered 'quasi-god-level'.

Although they possess fragments of power and have mastered rule-based abilities, they still cannot eliminate large numbers of monsters like the Beast Realm Hounds, which can create spatial rifts, in a short time; it takes some time.

Bai Yuekui's ability allows him to instantly kill the Beast Realm Hounds before they can react.
