God and Devil World - Chapter 481
Chapter 481: 8-Leaf Blue Plant! There were numerous survivors in tattered clothes scattered throughout the Yin Shan Mountain range. Currently, the riders of the 2nd Brigade, the new 4th Brigade of the Tiger Wolf Army, as well as the soldiers of the Scum Battalion 3rd Battalion were all keeping their eyes on the survivors.
Many of the factions regardless of size were easily breached by the soldiers of the Tiger Wolf Army, and the leaders either submitted or were killed instantly.
The frail and weak survivors were all squatting on the ground, carefully sipping their hot porridge. There was a look of satisfaction on their face.
The hundreds of soldiers from the Scum Battalion were holding whips as they eyed the survivors. The moment any of them tried to use snatch the food of any others, they would face the wrath of the soldiers, suffering a number of whips before being to the backend support of the Scum Battalion.
Within the mountain range, many small factions had appeared due to the small time tyrants, and countless depraved deeds had been carried out. For those who had engaged in crimes too heinous, they were instantly decapitated. Those who committed severe crimes were sent to the Scum Battalion, to be reformed and trained, before becoming soldiers.
A Hummer rolled over from the distance, entering the mountain range. The moment the doors appeared, Yue Zhong, Yin Shuang, Ji Qing Wu and a few others came out.
Lie Ming Yi came forward to salute them, “Leader!”
“Leader!” One by one, the rest of the commanders also came behind Lie Ming Yi and saluted Yue Zhong.
Yue Zhong waved his hands and dismissed them, “Go do your things, don’t bother about me!”
“Yes!” Most of these commanders were all soldiers that were deployed over from Guang Xi and Hunan and knew Yue Zhong’s character. They left one by one, with only Lie Ming Yi remaining behind.
Under Lie Ming Yi’s lead, Yue Zhong came to Lei Yun, and asked, “The report about a missile base in this mountain range, is it true?”
A missile base was a top secret in the country, and it was the first time Yue Zhong had heard about something like this.
If he could gain control over this base, he would gain a terrifying trump card against his enemies.
Lei Yun looked at Yue Zhong with a little fear, “It’s true! I stayed near the base for a period of time once. At the start of the apocalypse, I came across the base together with a few officials. However, the base only allowed the officials in, not us ordinary people. I’ve remembered the location though.”
In Lei Yun’s eyes, this is the leader of the mighty troops. He was extremely clear on the frightening might these people possessed, and anyone who was suspicious was dragged out to be executed. They didn’t look like some motley bunch, and he wasn’t willing to antagonize the leader of these powerful soldiers.
Yue Zhong was satisfied, “Good! You’re Lei Yun right. As long as the information is real, I will award you with a thousand dollars.”
Lie Ming Yi smiled at Lei Yun, saying, “A thousand dollars can buy you a 1,000 jin worth of rice. You’re truly lucky!”
Lei Yun immediately expressed his thanks profusely, “Thank you, Leader!! Thank you, Leader!!”
Those who did not starve would not truly understand the value of a thousand jin of rice. With it, Lei Yun could eat his fill for an entire year.
Lei Yun spoke, “Leader! I have an additional piece of information!”
Yue Zhong’s eyes were filled with curiosity, “Oh? What is it?”
Lei Yun pulled out a few items, a piece of debris that was the size of 2 fingers as well as a blue plant that had sprouted 8 leaves, handing them to Yue Zhong, “Leader, this is a Mutant Plant that I discovered, the flowers can secrete a strange liquid that is incredibly hard after drying. Based on my conjecture, the hardness of the dried up liquid is even harder than metal, and can be applied over armor.”
Yue Zhong took the items and used his strength to pinch. His Strength of 12 times a normal person exploded out, which could twist even a steel bar, but the hardened debris was fine.
His eyes brightened, and he threw the item on the ground, pulling out his Level 5 Crocodile Tooth Saw Blade and slashed the debris.
The blade landed, but the debris was still undamaged.
Yue Zhong picked it up again, and to his surprise, his blade that could slash apart the hull of armored vehicles could not even leave a mark on the debris. It was obvious that the hardness of this liquid was many times tougher than metal.
Yue Zhong turned to fix his gaze on Lei Yun, “Do you know if there are more of this Mutant Plant?”
Lei Yun pulled out 5 blue seeds, “I know!! I even collected a few seeds. Before the apocalypse, I was a botanist.”
Yue Zhong looked at Lei Yun and his eyes flashed with a look of appreciation, “Good! Lei Yun, I now appoint you the head researcher over the Central Plains Mutant Research Institute, your responsibility is to conduct research on the various Mutant Plants of Yin Shan Mountain Range. Your rank is Captain, and your first task is to collect more of this 8-leaf Blue Plant.”
Lei Yun thanked Yue Zhong excitedly, “Yes!! Thank you, Leader!! Thank you, Leader!!”
Lei Yun knew that once he entered Yue Zhong’s group of personnel and become an officer, as long as Yue Zhong did not fall, he would not have to worry about his future.
Yue Zhong turned solemn, “Lie Ming Yi, send an experienced soldier to protect Lei Yun. The matter of this 8-leaf Blue Plant is top secret, do not let anyone else know about it.”
The secretion of this plant could harden to become a material even tougher than metal, yet so much lighter than it. It had a wide variety of usage, it could be made into Defence Vests, airplanes, tanks, and much more. If it had landed in the hands of any faction before the apocalypse, it would have become a precious resource. If it were in the hands of any ordinary person, it would be useless, but in Yue Zhong’s hands, with his many facilities, it could be exploited fully, just like that laser gun and the Sky Fortress design.
Lie Ming Yi immediately replied, “Yes! Leader!”
Yue Zhong then replied, “Before that, Lei Yun, take us to the missile base!”
“Yes!” Lei Yun replied respectfully.
Under Lei Yun’s guidance, Yue Zhong deployed a battalion of Tiger Wolf Army soldiers and headed up
“It’s right there!!” From afar, Lei Yun pointed towards a tall mountain.
Yue Zhong looked towards the direction, noticing a long road extending all the way up the mountain. It was obvious that this road was the only road to the missile base.
Yue Zhong and his troops followed the road all the way, eradicating about 20,000 soldiers, and came to a large iron door.
Outside the door, there were 4 security cameras, sweeping across his party.
Yue Zhong came to the gate and his voice rang out, “My name is Yue Zhong, I hope to talk to your Leader!
Behind this door was one of China’s missile base, and there were all sorts of missiles and rockets inside. Although Yue Zhong had the confidence to blow down the door, he didn’t want to take the risk.
Right now, within the compound, inside the command center, 20 men in uniform were arguing.
One of the officers looked at the display, his face scowling, “This bunch of militants actually dare to set their sights on the country’s property, what galls!”
To many of these old-timers, they weren’t willing to let the weapons of the country fall into the hands of private individuals. Yue Zhong and his people were obviously not here in any official capacity.
Hearing the words of the officer, the rest of the military men exchanged glances, before a young officer spoke up, “Colonel, I think that we should talk to them.”
THe colonel turned and rebuked, “Nangong Yan, what are you thinking of? What is there to discuss with these bastards? Don’t tell me that you want to betray our country and our citizens?”
Nangong Yan stared right back at him and retorted, “Colonel!! It has already been a year since we last heard from the central government! What does this mean? The central government has already most likely fallen. If we continue like this, we will only starve here. We should go out and interact with them, and find out who they are! If they’re reliable, I feel that we should the base over.
The colonel was utterly enraged by Nangong Yan’s words, and he pulled out the gun at his waist, his body trembling as he roared, “You! I will execute you, traitor!!”
Nangong Yan closed his eyes and said softly, “By all means! Colonel! Holing ourselves up here is no solution. There’s no entertainment, nor hope. I’m going insane! If you want to kill me, do it, please. I hope that you can retain some consideration for the rest of the people.
After the world changed, many people had holed up within this missile base. Many could not take the life anymore and they committed suicide. Even within the military, many killed them. The rest who remained were slowly losing their rationality.
The Colonel looked at Nangong Yan and the rest, “What are you doing?! You want to surrender to those people?!”
“I want to live on!”
“I want to eat my fill!!”
“I want to see the sunlight!”
“…”
After a moment’s hesitation, most of the military men stood up one by one.
Chapter 482: Obtaining the Nuclear Bombs! The Colonel looked at his subordinates with a flash of hurt in his eyes. He sighed, and turned the gun to his own temple, closing his eyes and pulling the trigger.
Peng!
Following the gunshot, the Colonel slumped to the ground slowly. He wasn’t willing to betray his own principles and hand this base to Yue Zhong. However, he could not bring himself to kill his subordinates. Furthermore, he had already lost his loved ones to the zombies, there was nothing holding him back. Thus, he committed suicide.
“Colonel!!”
“Colonel!!” “…”
Seeing that the Colonel had committed suicide, the soldiers under him could not help but shed tears. This superior of theirs had treated them well and fairly through the years, and they were upset that he had chosen to die.
“Colonel, we’re sorry!” Nangong Yang came up to the body and saluted, before going to the monitors and spoke into the mic, “I’m the one in charge of this nuclear base, Nangong Yan. Who are you people?”
Yue Zhong replied, “I’m the leader of the Central Plains, with over a million people under me. I hope to receive this nuclear base peacefully. As long as you hand the base to me, whatever requests you may have, I can grant them if they’re not too overboard.”
When negotiating, both sides had to display their might. Without it, who would be willing to yield? With a million survivors under him, he had the qualifications to persuade the soldiers to submit to him.
After being silent for a while, Nangong Yan asked, “What’s the situation with the Central Government?”
Yue Zhong replied, “THe capital had already fallen, and it is a land of zombies now.”
If the capital hadn’t collapsed, and the government had not crumbled, the situation wouldn’t have been so bad. In fact, in the first half of the year during the apocalypse, many places were still waiting resolutely for the orders from the government. However, with the flow of time, since there was no communication, the various leaders started to get their own ideas.
Even after a year, there were still many loyal old guards who were still believing in the government, unwilling to hand the state’s resources to private mercenaries like Yue Zhong.
Nangong Yan contemplated for a moment, before replying, “I need you to promise our safety. Furthermore, I hope you’ll allow all of us here to remain as a troop. If within a year, we find that it’s hard to integrate with your troops, we hope that you’ll allow us to leave with a certain amount of rations then.” Yue Zhong thought for a while, “I promise you! However, I need you to teach my troops how to use the equipment here!”
Nangong Yan heaved a sigh of relief, “Ok!!”
Both sides came to an agreement, and the huge iron gate was finally opened. A number of survivors in tattered clothes, as well as a putrid stench, came out.
There were over 200 survivors inside the base, with 60 soldiers, the rest of them were their families and other high-ranking officials.
Nangong Yan came up to Yue Zhong and saluted, “Nangong Yan greets Leader!”
Yue Zhong did not stand on ceremony, and immediately ordered, “Give me a detailed report on the situation inside!”
“Understood! Currently, there…” Nangong Yan immediately reported everything he knew to Yue Zhong.
Inside the base, there were at least 15 intercontinental missiles armed with nuclear warheads within the base, instantly giving Yue Zhong a terrifying trump card.
When Yue Zhong heard this, he was instantly overjoyed but managed to calm himself down.
It was something he could only use as a last resort when things seemed bleak. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even consider it against the zombies.
The moment those missiles were launched, the earth would be plunged into a radioactive environment. He would have to worry about the possibility of the zombies and Mutant Beasts further evolving.
However, with them, he at least had a trump card. Should there be anyone who dared to threaten him with missiles, he would be able to retort.
After obtaining this base, Yue Zhong quickly assigned his most loyal subordinates over and began the training under Nangong Yang.
Having made his preparations, Yue Zhong went back to Hohhot City.
Lei Yun had obtained a large number of the 8-Leaf Blue Flowers with Lie Ming Yi’s help, and after returning to Hohhot City, they established a research center to began research into the Mutant Flora.
At the same time, Li Guang and Hu-er Ran led 2 troops to continue pushing towards the east, annihilating many zombies, and recovering countless cities and towns.
The main bulk of the zombies had already been collected by that mutant zombie, leaving behind very few that could not withstand the assault of the 2 well-equipped forces.
As the rate of reclaiming cities grew, more facilities and some military bases were discovered, and the resources were distributed to the 1st Regiment, 2nd Brigade, and the 4th Brigade. Hu-er Ran’s 3rd Brigade was armed with plenty of firearms, and the amount was just sufficient. As for tanks, armored vehicles, unmanned drones, IFVs, and assault helicopters, they weren’t provided any yet.
However, even without all those, the 3rd Brigade was still able to make use of their tools and wits to wipe out small zombie hordes. At the same time, Hu-er Ran made use of his system equipment to train up a decent number of Enhancers.
On this day, Hu-er Ran was leading 3,000 riders into a county to lure out the zombies. They prepared some traps and managed to lure the zombies into the traps, before killing them.
Hu-er Ran watched his troops struggling to perform the old-fashioned way, his heart feeling slightly sour, “Our equipment is still lacking. Compared to the 1st Regiment and 2nd Brigade, there’s no way to compare.”
The 3rd Brigade had the lousiest equipment, and while everyone had a gun, they were all old antiques. They couldn’t even compare to their melee weapons. As to the melee weapons, Yue Zhong was generous, whatever the 3rd Brigade needed, the factories would churn them out and deliver to the 3rd Brigade.
Hu-er Ran was clear that the 3rd Brigade was no match for the 1st Regiment, 2nd Brigade and 4th Brigade in terms of weapons. If they were to revolt, even the 4th Regiment that was comprised of ex-Scum Battalion members would be able to take them down easily.
Right as Hu-er Ran was thinking to himself, 13 soldiers in military clothing suddenly appeared from a corner.
The 13 soldiers had just appeared and immediately, rifles were trained on them. The aura exuding from the numerous Enhancer experts caused them to not dare make rash moves.
“Is this Yue Zhong’s troops? They don’t seem to be much?” The leader of the 13 soldiers assessed the equipment of Hu-er Ran troops and sighed.
Hu-er Ran glanced at them and asked, “Who are you?”
The leader replied solemnly, “I’m Dong Han, and I’m the envoy sent by the Greater China Alliance, we hope to meet Leader Yue Zhong.”
Hu-er Ran summoned a decent Evolver and gave an order, “Oh! Got it, Zhali Mu, send them to Hohhot City!”
“Understood!” Zhali Mu responded, and led 100 soldiers to escort Dong Han and his party towards Hohhot City.
“Is this Hohhot City? They already reclaimed it?” The moment Dong Han and his men entered and saw the bustling streets, their hearts were rocked and their eyes filled with shock. They didn’t dare believe their eyes.
Dong Han came from the Greater China Alliance, and they had already conquered a few counties, but they didn’t dare touch the major cities. In the past, they had tried to attack a city once, and the wave of a million zombies enveloped their troops. Those alive managed to flee, but they had suffered a great loss then.
Hohhot City was a major city and had over 2 million zombies in the past. Such a city was actually reclaimed by Yue Zhong, this caused Dong Han and the rest to feel astonished. What was even more shocking, the streets were filled with food stalls and vendors. Food was precious in the apocalypse, and even in the territories of the Greater China Alliance, there weren’t such scenes. After all, the moment there was a display of food, countless people would go crazy.
And yet, since Yue Zhong had reclaimed many cities, and obtained a huge amount of resources, adding on to his research of the Mutant Rice Tree, his food output was enough to support his territories. Since the other factions had not reached his level, they could not do what he did.
Dong Han and his men watched the look of bliss and contentment on the faces of the people here, they couldn’t help but feel envious, “This place of Yue Zhong is truly prosperous!! Hohhot City seems to already regain its former stability!”
The Greater China Alliance claimed to have a wide reach, but each of their territories was governed by some small time characters, and they came together to form the alliance. All of their places had not yet recovered to a degree of stability, and the weak were still preyed on by the strong, and there was still lawlessness everywhere. If it weren’t for their own convictions, Dong Han and the rest might have been tempted to join Yue Zhong already.
Chapter 483: Strategic Granary! Dong Han came up to Yue Zhong, assessing him carefully as he spoke with a neither-overbearing-nor-servile attitude, “I’m Dong Han, the envoy from the Greater China Alliance, pleased to meet Leader Yue Zhong!”
Yue Zhong replied indifferently, “The Greater China Alliance? Whatever your motive, just say it.”
Dong Han’s gaze turned fervent as he spoke, “Leader Yue Zhong, our Leader Ximen Tian Xiong was a minister before the apocalypse. Our Greater China Alliance is orthodox. I’m here on official orders, representing the country and citizens, hoping that you’ll join us. We can work together to kill the zombies and restore the glory of our country. As long as you’re willing to join us, Leader Ximen is willing to confer upon you the position of a Chairman of the China Development Committee. You will receive plenty of benefits. In the future, if we successfully reclaim the entire country, based on your contributions, you can become one of the 10 great founding fathers, and receive the respect and admiration of our people.”
After the apocalypse, Ximen Tian Xiong had been one of the few surviving ministers and was also one of the most powerful politicians in the past. Because of his status, he had easily gained control over a surviving troop near the capital, at the same time, many factions decided to join him.
The military only served to obey, and since Ximen Tian Xiong was one of the ministers, many soldiers were willing to follow his command. Thus, his rate of expansion had been naturally smoother than Yue Zhong.
Dong Han looked at Yue Zhong with a look of confidence. Using those previous words about the country and orthodoxies, he had managed to persuade countless factions. Most of Ximen Tian Xiong’s troops were in fact won over by Dong Han’s words. As long as he brought out promises of glory and riches, those commanders naturally gave in and joined Ximen Tian Xiong.
Yue Zhong’s eyes flashed with a strange light, as he replied mildly, “Chairman of the China Development Committee? You want me to hand over the control of my troops?”
Dong Han continued to persuade, “That’s right! Leader Yue Zhong, whatever you’ve been doing is considered privatization, and if we’re to pursue matters, your actions have already violated several laws and regulations. However, as the times are different, you have saved many people. As long as you surrender your military might, the government would not fault you for your actions and allow you to continue to contribute to the country. In the future books, you will be known as a hero, for everyone to learn from.”
Yue Zhong looked at Dong Han with a sardonic smile, “Enough of your bullshit. This has all been established with my own efforts. Do you want to take it away from me? Fight me for it. If you’re here to talk nonsense, you can scram! Just a little minister and he wants to represent the country and citizens? What a joke!”
Currently, Yue Zhong had over 2 million survivors under him, with over 40,000 elite troops, and Dong Han actually intended to try wrestle control with just words. It was impossible for Yue Zhong to give in.
The moment Yue Zhong gave up his military command, his subordinates would be purged. Even his own life would be threatened. If he gave up his military command, his life, possessions, and women would end up in the hands of others, and his fate would no longer be his to control. How could he agree to such conditions?
Even if he agreed, his subordinates would not. They had vested interests, and would definitely not agree to surrender to this Greater China Alliance.
One bespectacled man beside Dong Han had a furious expression as he barked, “What guts! How dare you speak in this manner? You’re going against the country and people!”
Yue Zhong frowned, and one of the soldiers by his side, Niu Guang Ming shot forwards and slapped the bespectacled man harshly. His teeth were knocked out, while Niu Guang Ming spat, “Shut your dog trap! Leader didn’t get you to talk, you guys better be obedient!”
Seeing how ferocious and violent Niu Guang Ming was, Dong Han and his men were frightened.
Dong Han knew that his words had no meaning anymore. He hesitated a while, gathering his thoughts, “Our Greater China Alliance would like to form an alliance with you, and join forces to take down a granary of the capital! Are you interested?”
When Yue Zhong heard this, his eyes flashed with bewilderment, and he asked with suspicion, “The granary is such a precious resource, how would you guys be so kind as to share with us?”
The strategic granary of the capital had the ration to feed over 10 million people. It was truly a precious resource. Its important was on par with most armories, and if Yue Zhong himself came in possession of it, he would definitely not share. Dong Han continued, “There’s a huge Mutant Beast horde there, with Mutant Cats, Mutant Dogs, Mutant Snakes, Mutant Cockroaches and all sorts of strange beasts. Our Greater China Alliance is unable to breach through, therefore they have sent me to contact you to recover this granary.”
Yue Zhong pondered, before asking, “After we reclaim it, how are we splitting it?”
Dong Han responded smoothly, “50/50!”
Without missing a beat, Yue Zhong retorted, “70/30, 70 belongs to me, you guys take 30!”
Dong Han frowned, “45/55.”
“60/40, 60 me, 40 yours!”
Dong Han immediately broke into a smile, “Deal! 60/40 it is, in any case, there are enough rations there. 40% will suffice for us!”
“You’re truly easy to work with.” Yue Zhong eyed Dong Han with appreciation and asked curiously, “Dong Han, you’re a smart person, why did you start off with that bullshit?”
Dong Han responded with a strange glint, “It’s not. Leader Yue Zhong, I have used those words to persuade countless people. Some words, if I don’t use them, how would I know what the other party thinks? If I wasn’t that forthright, who knew if you were actually willing to join us or not?”
Yue Zhong’s eyes lit up and he assessed this man again, his respect and admiration growing, “Dong Han, I appreciate your skills, how about working for me?”
Dong Han was smart and knew when to retreat. His reaction was smooth, and he was truly a professional at communications. Yue Zhong had gathered a number of experts beneath him, and the closest he had was only Lian Da Zhong.
Dong Han chuckled, “Thank you for your praise, Leader Yue Zhong! I’m still a person of the Greater China Alliance, and have no intentions of leaving it as of now.”
Yue Zhong’s eyes flashed with disappointment, “What a pity!”
Dong Han replied, “Other than joining forces to take down the granary, our Greater China Alliance also hopes to buy rations from you.”
Yue Zhong asked, “Oh! What do you intend on using to purchase?”
Dong Han replied, “Pearls, gold, diamonds, antiques.”
Yue Zhong’s face turned sullen as he replied coldly, “We only use weapons, Mutant Beast meat, Mutant Beast materials, and fuel. 1 jin of Mutant Beast meat can exchange for 3 jin of rations. The weight of military weapons shall be the weight of the food exchanged. Mutant Beasts materials will use another form of trading value, for now, the hides are our priority. 1 jin of fuel can exchange for 1 jin of food.”
Dong Han immediately chuckled bitterly, all these that Yue Zhong was asking for were what the Greater China Alliance also sorely needed. It was especially so for the military firepower. They were stringent even on ammunition.
Although the Greater China Alliance had opened a few weapons facilities, they were still lacking in factories. Every bullet they spent was a bullet gone. Fuel was also a precious resource now, without it, tanks and other vehicles could not move. As to the Mutant Beast parts, they were all vital materials in armor and weapons. They were obviously reluctant to give them up.
Dong Han pondered before gritting his teeth, “Leader Yue Zhong, we’re willing to exchange 4 top beautiful virgins in exchange for 400 tonnes of rations. I can assure you, they’re definitely on par with top models. You’ll definitely like them. After we take down the granary, we’re willing to give you 4,000 tonnes of rations.”
Yue Zhong’s gaze turned savage, “No! If you want to exchange manpower, it’s possible, I want experts in the fields of optoelectronics, machine manufacturing, computing, doctors and any other professional fields. Every expert will be exchanged for a set amount of rations. Other than those, I want all beautiful virgins and a large number of them. Everyone of them will be exchanged according to my standards as well. Many of my subordinates are still single. You can also exchange with children, every child for 2 jin of rations. As to other women, 1 jin for 1.”
Dong Han heard this and his scalp turned numb, he could only agree, “Alright!”
Yue Zhong then embraced Zhuo Ya Tong beside him, planting a kiss on her cheek, as he spoke, “Oh right, I’m still lacking some precious stones. My darling here loves them, as well as pearls and the Mutant Beasts nucleus. This time, you may use those nuclei to exchange. The bigger they are the better, the more value in the trade. If you do this well, I’ll treat you well.”
Dong Han looked at Yue Zhong somewhat enviously, “Understood!”
After both sides had come to an agreement, Dong Han left the place, returning to the Greater China Alliance.
Xie Le County was a small town near Zhang Kou City. There were people within the town, and from afar, one could tell that there were survivors gathered in the town. This was the headquarters of the Greater China Alliance. Chapter 484: The 5 Heads of the Greater China Alliance! The Greater China Alliance was one of the largest factions in China. Their reach extended across the country, with 60 member groups. The survivors under them also numbered in the millions. Their headquarters was at the Xie Le County near the capital.
The President of the Alliance was Ximen Tian Xiong, and he had gone to Xie Le County to do a routine inspection. He managed to avoid the initial devastation of the apocalypse and made use of his position to gather troops, establishing the Alliance.
The survivors of the entire alliance were definitely in the millions, but they were all spread out and thus, the actual number in Xie Le County was only about 200,000.
Inside a lavish mansion, 5 men sat on a sofa and stared at Dong Han.
“You’re saying that he wants experts in the optoelectronics, mechanical engineering, and medical fields?” One elderly man frowned, his face flushed.
This was the President of the alliance, Ximen Tian Xiong.
Dong Han replied, “That’s right!”
A middle-aged man of about 35 to 36, dressed in a suit, asked slowly, “Seems like his ambitions are big. He has already considered the future as a governing body. He isn’t simple.”
This was one of the 5 heads of the alliance, Chan Wei Hua. He had been a boss figure in the past and awakened as an Evolver. He relied on his own power to become one of the top figures within the alliance.
Another man with a thick gold chain around his neck and branded clothes, with system rings as well as jewelry around his fingers spoke out, “You guys are overestimating him. The fact that he wants so many women proves that he’s just some lustful person. He won’t amount to much.”
This particular man was called Zheng Da Long, and he was a farmer in the past, awakening during the apocalypse with immense strength. He was one of the rare triple-attribute Evolvers and made use of his strength to carve out a territory for himself, before being inducted into the alliance.
A neat and handsome man with gold-rimmed glasses and a slicked hairdo spoke out coldly, his gaze icy, “He doesn’t want just women, he wants to populate.”
This man was called Su Xing He, a low-level cadre from before the apocalypse. After awakening as a peak level Evolver, he used his wits and abilities to climb up the ladder, ending up as a head figure. He could tell Yue Zhong’s motive.
There was a remaining military personnel with sword-like brows and a strict demeanor. He was called Zhang Jian Xing. He was the commander of the army, and although he and Ximen Tian Xiong were ordinary people, he had the command of the army and was one of the head figures of the alliance.
Zheng Da Long squinted, and asked with an honest look, “Oh? Why population? He already has a million survivors, he shouldn’t be lacking in manpower.”
Su Xing He had seen through Yue Zhong’s objectives, and replied slowly, “His ambition is huge. He wants us to exchange experts because he lacks those talents. He wanted women because he wants to promote childbirth. Without women, how could he grow his population? As for the children, he could groom them and they would rely on him and become his loyal supporters in the future. He doesn’t have to worry about men because as long he implements his plans, he could win the men from our hands. He’s truly crafty and hard to deal with!”
Hearing his analysis, the rest of the heads fell silent, their brows furrowed, and found themselves agreeing with his words.
Chan Wei Hua asked Su Xing He, “Xing He, what should we do then? We don’t have enough resources!”
Xie Le County had 200,000 people, and every day, their consumption was huge. Ximen Tian Xiong had already tried restricting the outflow. Other than the 10,000-strong army and 4,000 subordinates of the 5 heads who ate half their original meals, the rest of the survivors could only get gruel. Even then, it was still an astonishing dwindling of their rations. If it weren’t for their scavenging troops heading out to look for food, they could not support themselves.
Yue Zhong’s power had already reached the borders of the Greater China Alliance, and they found themselves stuck, between Yue Zhong’s harsh terms of exchange and their own resources. Even if there weren’t any major operations, they could at most hold out for another week.
Zheng Da Long continued squinting and suggested, “Why don’t we try attacking the granary first. Since there’re Mutant Beasts there, we should be able to gain some meat from there.
Su Xing He shook his head and rejected, “There should be at least 10 Type 3 Mutant Beasts. If we don’t send all our forces, we will definitely lose. But then, if we did so, Yue Zhong would take the chance to attack us. Then whatever we have built up, we would lose.”
Type 3 Beasts were no joke, each of them was terrifying existence.
Yue Zhong had 10 Type 3 Treants with him, and each time he launched a night raid, their rate of slaughter was extremely terrifying.
Chan Wei Hua asked, “Then what?”
Su Xing He’s eyes flashed with fervor, “We can only exchange the people. Once we hold out for this period and implement that plan, we will recover whatever we’ve lost.”
Ximen Tian Xiong turned silent, before his gaze also turned resolute, “Alright, let him be smug for a while.”
Ximen Tian Xiong had made his decision and sent over a thousand experts and professors in various fields as well as a large number of women towards Hohhot City. Yue Zhong also kept his word, sending the rations over.
Without his support, Xie Li County would have faced a catastrophic food shortage.
In this exchange, Yue Zhong gained a large number of talents, as well as a huge pile of precious stones, diamonds, and Mutant Beasts nuclei. Of which, he had obtained 13 Type 3 Nuclei, 60 Type 2 Nuclei, and over 200 Mutant Beast nuclei.
After the Greater China Alliance received the food, they began to send envoys to urge Yue Zhong to join forces with them to attack the granary.
Yue Zhong wasn’t particularly in a rush, instead, sending Hu-er Ran and Lie Ming Yi as well as their 2nd Brigade and 3rd Brigade to continue on their mission to wipe out the zombies in the surrounding counties, before reclaiming those territories.
The horde controlled by the mutant zombie had continued northeast, and although they weren’t moving towards the capital, there were still a lot of zombies in the nearby counties making their way to congregate. However, these zombies were slowly being cleared by Yue Zhong’s troops before they could join up with the rest.
The Greater China Alliance watched as Yue Zhong continued to reclaim territory after territory, and they couldn’t sit still, feeling the pressure, and they started to deploy their own troops to conquer the other towns.
There were over 14,000 soldiers in the Greater China Alliance. Although they had no way of contending with a million-strong horde, they could still deal with tens or hundreds of thousands in those small counties.
Yue Zhong watched them and didn’t send any troops to attack them. After all, the zombies at the capital were too many, over 2 million. At the same time, there were too many people in the surrounding towns and counties. With just Yue Zhong’s factions, even using 15 missiles would not be able to wipe out the zombies fully. Thus, as long as the Greater China Alliance attacked the zombies instead of him, he could still tolerate their existence.
Just as both factions went on their tacit understanding in clearing the zombies, there was a sudden movement from the 3 million zombies in Zhang Kou City. They left the city and formed a wave that made its way towards the capital.
Yue Zhong sent many unmanned drones to conduct reconnaissance on the zombies, and the moment the zombies left, he immediately deployed the Tiger Wolf Army to head there and clean up the remaining zombies. He reclaimed the city before the Greater China Alliance even had a chance to react.
The Greater China Alliance was plunged into a sudden disadvantage. They realized they were suddenly surrounded on 3 sides by Yue Zhong’s factions.
Left with no choice, they could only continue towards the northeast direction and conquer 2 cities, and other smaller villages.
Although they conquered the 2 cities and annihilated over hundreds of thousands of zombies, they lost hundreds of soldiers and wasted a large amount of ammunition. Their military strength suffered a huge loss.
Under their efforts, Zhang Kou City was jointly shared by Yue Zhong and them. Both sides maintained an impasse. They didn’t dare to attack Yue Zhong, and Yue Zhong wasn’t willing to wipe out this ‘ally’ that could help kill the zombies.
Yue Zhong knew that if he wanted to swallow them, he would have to pay a huge price as well. In the end, forcing them to fight the zombies wasn’t a bad choice. Chapter 485: Arrival of the Beast Horde! By now, the Central Plains had an established governing cabinet, and the troops had cleared out the zombies near Zhang Kou City according to plans.
Having secured the control of Zhang Kou City, Yue Zhong then led the 1st Regiment and its armored division, the 2nd Brigade, the 3rd Brigade and stationed them in Zhang Kou City.
After resting for a few days, Yue Zhong personally led the 2nd Brigade and 3rd Brigade, together with the 10,000-strong army of the Greater China Alliance, as they made their way towards the granary in the city.
The Greater China Alliance also sent out their long-time commander Zhang Jian Xing, their strongest Evolver Zhen Da Long, as well as the crafty Evolver Su Xing He.
Along the way, although both troops maintained their guard against each other, both sides had the common goal of taking down the granary. Hence, while tension was high, there wasn’t any exchange of fire.
Under those conditions, both armies entered Nan Min Town.
The zombies in Nan Min Town had already been cleared out by the recon soldiers sent to investigate the granary previously.
By the time they entered the town, it was in the evening. Both armies occupied half the town each and began to prepare their dinner.
Yue Zhong’s troops ate rice, as well as broth, together with their luncheon meat, Mutant Beast and Mutant Fish meat. Whereas the soldiers of the Greater China Alliance only ate bland cornbread.
The Greater China Alliance had managed to gain a large amount of corn and cornflour after obtaining 2 cities. Thus, their meals became cornbread. As for canned meat, luncheon meat, and all sorts of nourishing food, these were only issued to the higher command, and the ordinary soldiers could not eat them.
“Shit! They got some really good food there!” One of the Alliance soldiers came back to his own camp, looking at the 2 cornbread in his hands, and thought back to what Yue Zhong’s side was eating. He could not help but curse in envy.
Another soldier bit into his cornbread and spoke, “Be content! One month ago, we didn’t even have enough to eat, it’s already good that we could eat our fill now.”
Not so long ago, the Greater China Alliance was facing a food shortage, and few among their troops could eat their fill. Compare to then, they were truly in a better position.
Another soldier looked around before speaking in a low voice, “Did you guys hear? The leader over there is called Yue Zhong, he had already led his troops to conquer Hohhot City, Bao Xi City and Zhang Kou City, and many other places.”
One soldier grumbled, “I should have known! We stayed so long in those lousy places, how can we compare with others?” On one side, there was a valiant leader who had gone to conquer the whole of Central Plains, while the other had kept themselves holed up in a few broken cities. The soldiers were naturally unhappy. They were after all humans with their own thinking and not undead zombies that only knew to follow orders.
That same soldier spoke softly, “Then do you know? It seems that if any of us were to go over and pass their questioning, we could become one of them. As a soldier there, not only is there meat to eat, if one gains enough merit, they can get their own wives and form a family again!”
The soldiers were immediately stirred, as they crowded around in a bid to make things clear, “Is that for real?”
In the camp of the Greater China Alliance, many small groups started their own conversations, and many were tempted to join Yue Zhong.
There were over 10,000 soldiers in the Greater China Alliance, and they comprised of the survivors that had joined in the past year. Their sense of belonging wasn’t as strong. Especially with a situation where they couldn’t eat their fill, they were naturally dissatisfied.
In the dark of the night, as night fell over this town, many pairs of eyes lit up in the distance.
A sea of Mutant Rats came rushing towards the town.
“Mutant Beasts!! The Mutant Beasts are here!”
Both Yue Zhong and Zhang Jian Xing had been cautious and deployed many experts to be on sentry. The moment the Mutant Rat horde came close, the alarm was sounded.
The moment the alarm rang out, all the soldiers got ready and gathered in their positions.
After they got in position, there was a huge difference in the troops. Yue Zhong’s soldiers had been through countless battles with zombies and Mutant Beasts. After the battles, their experience had groomed them into elites. The moment they heard the alarm, they had swiftly gathered under their respective commanders. As for the Alliance troops, many were just living meal to meal and had not undergone any formal training. They gathered in a messy manner, some even began to panic. That was the difference between a well-trained troop and a motley bunch of people.
“What an elite troop!!” Zhang Jian Xing saw the soldiers under Yue Zhong responding so efficiently, and he looked at his own subordinates, his lips pursed and a chill overcame his heart.
It was not that Zhang Jian Xing did not know the importance of training. However, the Alliance had always been lacking in food, and if they trained without proper nutrition, it would be dangerous. Their previous food shortage simply did not allow them to.
However, it was not that they lacked elites. 1,000 elite soldiers got into position with a similar speed to Yue Zhong’s troops and followed their orders to take up their defenses.
Yue Zhong came to the front lines of the town.
At this time, a number of flares lit up the night and area, and everyone could see the sea-like horde of Mutant Rats making their way towards the town.
“Open fire!”
Bullets flew from the Alliance, blanketing the Mutant Rats.
Yue Zhong watched them and did not issue any order to fire, instead, turning to Bi Lǜ and commanded, “Do it! Eliminate them!”
Bi Lǜ closed her eyes, and like a goddess, she waved her hands and a spiritual wave spread out towards the nearby Treants.
3,000 Treants charged towards the Mutant Rats the moment they were touched by the spiritual wave.
The 3,000 Treants charged right into the horde of Mutant Rats, using their sharp claws to tear the Mutant Rats apart. These were all creatures of above Level 20, their barks were tough, and the claws of Mutant Rats could not pierce through easily. The claws of the Treants were much sharper in comparison.
The 3,000 Treants had stood guard outside the town like rocks, and faced the incoming wave of Mutant Rats, tearing them apart and gobbling up their corpses.
These Treants still had room for evolving, as long as they consumed enough flesh, blood, and essence, they could become stronger.
The commanders of the Alliance looked at Yue Zhong and his 3,000 Treants, their eyes flashing with envy, “Strong! They could actually command such freaks!”
Over at their own side, while their soldiers were firing at will, many of the Mutant Rats managed to breach their defenses and bit their soldiers to death.
However, they made a swift reaction, as a number of firetrucks drove forwards and fired a few arrows with oil into the rats, and lit them up. Long walls of flames instantly appeared, separating some of the Mutant Rats, and forcing many of them towards Yue Zhong’s direction.
The Treants managed to hold off the huge horde of Mutant Rats, as any of them that managed to reach the Treants were instantly sliced apart.
Soon, there was a mountain of Mutant Rats corpses in front of the 3,000 Treants.
As for the human soldiers, they watched quietly as the 2 opposing sides of mutant creatures tore each other apart.
From time to time, one or two of the Treants would be broken down by the combined attacks of the countless Mutant Rats, however, many more Treants would retaliate.
The intense battle continued for an entire half hour, after which, there were suddenly terrifying roars that resounded from behind the Mutant Rats. A number of Mutant Dogs, Mutant Cats, Mutant Lizards, Mutant Snakes, Mutant Scorpions, Mutant Tigers, Mutant Apes, Mutant Gorillas and other variants all appeared, bringing a terrifying pressure.
“Fire the cannons!! Fire the cannons!”
Yue Zhong watched the swarm of Mutant Beasts and his eyes narrowed as he gave the order.
Among the sea of Mutant Beasts, there were many Type 2 Mutant Beasts and giant ones. They were not something that the Treants could handle.
Should the Type 2 Mutant Beasts charge through, the 3,000 Treants would be immediately ripped apart.
Hong! Hong! Hong!
Yue Zhong’s troops and the alliance troops brought their own heavy artillery, and both sides began to fire, as powerful missiles rained down upon the Mutant Beast horde, blasting large patches of them into oblivion.
Heavy firepower was the answer to dealing with Mutant Beasts hordes. As long as the missiles landed, even a Type 4 Mutant Beast would be heavily injured. Of course, a single round could instantly kill a Type 2 or Type 3 Mutant Beast, but it was not the case for a Type 4 Mutant Beast. Under the rain of heavy artillery, many of the Mutant Beasts were killed, but much more managed to evade the rain of heavy fire, and charged towards Yue Zhong and the Alliance.
Chapter 486: Fierce Battle with the Mutant Beast Horde! There were numerous Type 2 Mutant Beasts charging for the 2 armies, each of them possessing a terrifying strength. Facing those Type 2 Mutant Beasts, many of the soldiers of the Alliance began to pull out their rockets and grenade launchers, firing at the Type 2 Mutant Beasts, injuring them gravely. However, even so, the Type 2 Mutant Beasts managed to charge through their lines and began to unleash mayhem and hell upon the soldiers.
With the support of the other soldiers, the Alliance paid the price of 50 lives before killing the Type 2 Mutant Beasts that had breached their defenses.
Over at Yue Zhong’s side, 300 soldiers wielded laser guns and fired from afar. The laser beams pierced the heads of the Type 2 Mutant Beasts, continuing through some of the other lesser Mutant Beasts behind them.
When the soldiers of the Alliance saw the laser guns in the hands of Yue Zhong’s soldiers, their hearts were filled with shock, “Laser guns! They had already managed to develop such weapons!”
The laser gun was a technology that many major countries were researching into before the apocalypse. However, while the technology of laser existed, converting it into a weapon was likely something that required another 20 years.
However, there were laser guns now in the hands of Yue Zhong’s soldiers, and this caused all the soldiers of the Alliance to be shocked. This meant that Yue Zhong already had a mature production line of laser guns. Furthermore, he already had the research ability.
Zhang Jian Xing watched as the soldiers fired the laser guns, turning the heads of the Type 2 Mutant Beasts into sieves, and they slumped dead after roaring in agony.
His eyes narrowed in shock, and he immediately recognized the threat and importance of such a weapon.
After the world changed, Mutant Beasts were evolving constantly. The Type 2 Mutant Beasts were already largely invulnerable to bullets, and their defenses were strong. While anti-tank missiles might deal some damage, the Type 3 Mutant Beasts were another tier higher.
Ordinary soldiers were helpless against Type 2 Mutant Beasts, but with the laser guns, ordinary soldiers could kill them. In the future battles, any side that had laser guns would have a huge advantage.
Zhang Jian Xing had already realized that be it equipment, training or battle experience, Yue Zhong’s troops were vastly superior to his own. If Yue Zhong had wanted them eliminated, he knew they would perish without a doubt.
Zheng Da Long saw how easily Yue Zhong’s soldiers were killing the Type 2 Mutant Beasts and he couldn’t help but feel a chill, “What a terrifying army!”
Although Zheng Da Long was a peak Evolver, he had no confidence that he could block the lasers. He was filled with trepidation towards the soldiers of Yue Zhong’s troops.
“Strong!”
As the soldiers of varying ranks in the Alliance watched, their eyes were filled with a complicated gaze.
With the support of the artillery, numerous Mutant Beasts were blasted to death, and the soldiers of the Alliance and Yue Zhong continued to defend their own positions, withstanding this wave of Mutant Beasts.
After an hour, there was another earthshaking roar from behind the hordes of Mutant Beasts.
10 Type 3 Mutant Beasts appeared in the sight of everybody. One was a 6m-tall Ferocious Ape, another was a 90m-long Type 3 Green Jiao Serpent with a single horn. Another was a 6m-tall Type 3 Golden Scaled Mouse, covered entirely in gold scales. There was a Type 3 Red Panther covered with red scales, a 10m-tall Type 3 Mutant Black Gorilla, a Type 3 Mutant Dog that had thick black fur that made it look like a lion, a Type 3 Giant Turtle with a shell the size of a moveable fortress, a Type 3 Black-scaled Ferocious Boar of about 10m, a Type 3 Steel Armor Bull, 10m-tall and covered in metal, a Type 3 Black-Spotted Spider of about 2m, and finally, a Type 3 Lykoi (Werewolf Cat) that was larger than a panther, with extremely sharp claws.
On top of the Type 3 Red Panther, there was a demon-like creature who stood 3m-tall, covered in a layer of gold scales, it had a tiger head, and yet it had golden wings behind its back. This creature stared at the town coldly.
This creature with a tiger head suddenly let out a piercing howl, and all 9 Type 3 Mutant Beasts responded in kind, before charging right at the town.
Of these beasts, the Type 3 Lykoi and Type 3 Mutant Dog were the fastest, on par with Lightning, and managed to breach the sound barrier.
The Type 3 Lykoi managed to charge right into the camp of the Alliance, and with a flash of its claws, many of the soldiers were ripped apart, their organs and brains splattering everywhere. It was a horrific sight.
Zheng Da Long eyed the Type 3 Lykoi and shouted out in a solemn voice, “Su Xing He, let’s charge together!”
“Ok!”
Su Xing He followed behind Zheng Da Long, leading a dozen Evolvers as they rushed towards the Type 3 Lykoi.
Zheng Da Long activated his Second Order Werewolf Transformation, and his muscles rippled, as he transformed into a 3m-tall werewolf. After he transformed, he activated his Second Order High-Speed Movement, and pushed his speed to the limits of the sound barrier, rushing right at the Type 3 Lykoi. With a swipe, he managed to rip a huge chunk of meat from the body of the beast.
The Type 3 Lykoi roared out in anger and slashed back at Zheng Da Long. However, before it could reach his body, a powerful psychic barrier appeared in front of Zheng Da Long.
The Type 3 Lykoi slapped the psychic barrier, causing it to disintegrate.
Zheng Da Long took the opportunity to escape the attack range of the Type 3 Lykoi.
Su Xing He was a psychic Enhancer, and his barriers were all well-controlled. By working together with Zheng Da Long, they had killed many Type 3 Mutant Beasts before.
A dozen Evolvers quickly reached the battlefield, unleashing their skills at the Type 3 Lykoi. If any of them were to go against the beast alone, they would definitely be killed in an instant. However, working together with Su Xing He and Zheng Da Long who held it down, they could quickly unleash their abilities and injure the Type 3 Lykoi heavily.
On the other side, the Type 3 Mutant Dog had reached Yue Zhong’s camp, however, it was met with a flash of a pale-white fist. Yin Shuang burst forwards with a terrifying strength.
Although the Type 3 Mutant Dog wasn’t a Strength-based Mutant Beast, its strength was still higher than humans, and most Strength-based Evolvers could not match it. It slashed viciously at Yin Shuang, intending to turn this little human into meat paste.
A powerful explosion happened as the 2 parties brought forth their terrifying strength.
With a loud ‘hong’, the right claw of the Type 3 Mutant Dog was blasted apart, its bones disintegrating. A large amount of blood sprayed out, and the ferocious dog was also sent tumbling back in a pathetic manner.
“Strong!!” Yue Zhong watched how Yin Shuang had sent it flying and praised. A single fist could actually send a Type 3 Mutant Beast flying back, her strength was truly terrifying.
Among the intelligent life forms Yue Zhong had, Yin Shuang did not have the ability to summon other Sea Mutant Beasts like Hai Lan, nor the ability to control a Mother Tree or other Treants like Bi Lǜ. She didn’t seem to have any special skills, except her pure strength and speed. Even Yue Zhong with his Steel Body would be gravely injured if punched by her. She was truly an intelligent life form meant for combat.
“Enemies of Father, die!!” Yin Shuang’s eyes shone with a bloodthirsty light, and her entire body shot forwards like a cannonball, her fist blasting towards the body of the Type 3 Mutant Dog. It caused the entire body to cave in, and a number of bones broke.
The pitiful Type 3 Mutant Dog flew through the air, spitting out blood.
Yin Shuang continued to give chase, forcing it to retreat further.
Yue Zhong looked at the other 7 incoming Mutant Beasts, and pulled out his Electromagnetic Gun, firing at the 10m-tall Type 3 Black Gorilla.
Although it was a large beast, its reaction was swift. Yue Zhong had just fired, and it already dodged to the side.
Yue Zhong cocked the gun once more, and a beam shot out, penetrating the body of the Black Gorilla, leaving a large, smoking hole.
The Type 3 Black Gorilla roared out in rage and pain and charged at Yue Zhong as though nothing had happened. Its wound from the Electromagnetic Gun was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The Type 3 Black Gorilla wasn’t exactly fast, but it was still at least 18 or 19 times faster than an ordinary human. However, its defense, recovery rate and strength were among the strongest of the Type 3 Mutant Beasts. As long as its head was not damaged, or its heart pierced, it could quickly recover. Chapter 487: Strange Change! The Type 3 Green Jiao Serpent opened its jaws and activated its innate ability. A large green cloud of poison spread out all over the soldiers of the alliance, enveloping the defense post.
Many soldiers instantly started to rot, their flesh dripping off their bones. They struggled for a while, before helplessly turning into a puddle of liquid.
The soldiers of the Alliance watched as their comrades were dissolved into liquid and their faces were filled with shock. Many were stricken by fear and immediately turned to flee.
With that single attack of the Type 3 Green Jiao Serpent, the defense post of the Alliance immediately crumbled, and the suppressing fire on the Mutant Beast also stopped.
However, there were still elites within the Alliance, and Zhang Jian Xing quickly assigned a platoon of soldiers to charge forward and defend against the attacks of the Mutant Beasts.
After spitting out the poison fog, the Type 3 Green Jiao Serpent swiftly headed towards Yue Zhong’s direction to spew out another round.
Yue Zhong’s eyes turned cold and he flicked his right hand, congealing a ball of Devil Flame. He then threw a punch towards the skies, and a beam of flame that seemed to be able to burn through everything fired at the poison fog, incinerating the green fog into smoke.
The Type 3 Green Jiao Serpent wanted to continue spewing its poison, but it was unfortunately met with a volley of artillery fire, enveloping it.
Hong! Hong!
Following the sound of an explosion, the Type 3 Green Jiao Serpent was injured heavily by the blasts and was sent tumbling to one side.
“Chance!” A small cat hidden at a high vantage point watched quietly, and its eyes flashed with a human-like intelligence.
As the Alliance and Yue Zhong’s forces were entangled with the Type 3 Mutant Beasts, a number of large trucks came from the distance. From within them, numerous Kingdom of God soldiers, Adjudicators and Judges came charging out wearing high-level Defense Vests.
These Kingdom of God troops began to launch an assault on Yue Zhong’s troops.
One soldier came up to Zhang Jian Xing in panic and reported, “Commander!! Commander, it’s bad! The Kingdom of God has just attacked Yue Zhong’s forces!”
“What? Without my order, how can they choose this time to attack? If the Yue Zhong’s troops are done, we will be killed by the beasts as well! Mr. Erek! This wasn’t our agreement!!” Zhang Jian Xing’s face turned steely as he questioned the European beside him.
According to the agreement between the Alliance and the Kingdom of God, both sides would launch an attack on Yue Zhong’s forces after they had repelled the wave of Mutant Beasts. The Kingdom of God would then support the Alliance to swallow up Yue Zhong’s forces. Zhang Jian Xing had not expected for Erek to suddenly choose this time to attack.
Erek revealed a carefree smile, “Mr. Zhang Jian Xing, this is the best chance to kill Yue Zhong. We will not let go of this chance. Thank you for your foolishness, you are of no use now. Go and die.”
As he smiled at Zhang Jian Xing, another European beside him who wore a black leather suit grabbed at Zhang Jian Xing with a stern expression. 5 air blades shot out from his fingertips and instantly sliced Zhang Jian Xing’s head off.
“Go to hell, yellow-skinned monkeys!” Another male in a jacket and cowboy pants laughed savagely and pointed.
A number of transparent lines shot out from all directions, and twirled among the people present, slicing the numerous soldiers of the Alliance into pieces.
As things had progressed too fast, the experts and commanders of the Alliance had not the time to react. They didn’t expect their ally to act against them, and they died with a look of loss and shock on their faces.
Erek looked at the corpses with an expression of distaste, speaking to Wade and Wilson, “Wade! Wilson! Yue Zhong is yours to handle. Once you’ve accomplished your mission, let’s head to Heaven’s Playground to enjoy ourselves properly!”
Wilson, who wore the cowboy pants laughed, “Your treat!”
Erek replied, “OK!”
“Alright! Then you can wait here for our good news!” Wilson chuckled and in a flash, both he and Wade disappeared from their location, making their way towards the distance.
“Fuck! Those bastards truly had something up their sleeves, they actually chose this time to attack! Damn it!!”
Yue Zhong had always been on guard against the Alliance and had likewise stationed a few soldiers of the 3rd Brigade to keep an eye on them. The moment the Kingdom of God made a move, Hu-er Ran cursed and led his elites to defend their positions, engaging the Kingdom of God in combat.
These Kingdom of God elites had the advanced rifles and they even had infrared vision, as well as other advanced equipment. As for the Judges and Adjudicators, they were all from Germany and had undergone strict military training, as well as life-and-death situations. Coupled with the job change of the system, their combat prowess had been pushed to another tier. Although there were only 800 of them, the moment they attacked, they completely suppressed the 3rd Brigade.
“Commander! We’re being pummeled here! Please send help!”
“Commander, please send help! A platoon! At the very least! We’re going to lose at this rate!”
“…..”
The Judges and Adjudicators were led by 12 Divine Envoys and 36 Envoys-in-waiting, and they launched a terrifying assault on the 3rd Brigade.
Modern warfare took lives extremely fast due to the firearms against firearms, unlike in the past, where melee combat was more drawn out. However, due to the apocalypse, there were Evolvers and Enhancers and all sorts of new battle techniques. Many Evolvers could make use of their powerful skills to attack enemies, causing the speed of the battle to become even faster.
The Divine Envoys were all peak Evolvers, and their battle ability would not lose to Hu-er Ran. With 12 of them attacking, the tide of the battle was with the Kingdom of God, and every second, there was a 3rd Brigade soldier being slaughtered.
Hu-er Ran heard the pleas for help and his head hurt, “Those bastards, how are those foreigners so strong?!”
Suddenly, his mind became clear, “The Kingdom of God! That’s right, they’re the soldiers from the Kingdom of God! No wonder they’re so strong! Zha Ci, go inform the leader, request support from him!!”
“Understood!” Zha Ci replied and quickly went over to Yue Zhong’s side.
Hu-er Ran then ordered solemnly, “Hua Bu La Tuo, go lead the special forces of the 3rd Brigade!”
Hua Bu La Tuo’s Special Forces within the 3rd Brigade was formed of a number of Mongolian elites after they had joined Yue Zhong. There were 22 natural Evolvers and had been part of the Qie Xue Forces in the past.
“Yes!” Hua Bu La Tuo acknowledged and rushed off.
Hua Bu La Tuo led the forces of the 3rd Brigade and clashed with the Kingdom of God forces. Although they had suffered casualties under the assault of the Kingdom of God, they were extremely strong-willed and had no intentions of retreating.
The entire 3rd Brigade knew there was no way back for them, the moment they fled, Yue Zhong would exterminate them on legit grounds. By then, they would no longer have their own troops nor pride. To them, honor was the only thing keeping them banded together. Without it or resolution, it was hard to become a top-notch force.
“Trash! On what grounds do you yellow-skinned monkeys think you can impede us?! Go to hell!” One Divine Envoy became a huge werewolf, and his eyes flashed with a vicious glint. He laughed savagely, and charged forwards, tearing out the heart of one soldier from the 3rd Brigade.
Countless bullets fell upon the werewolf, and he managed to dodge most of them, while those that hit just bounced off.
“Animal!!” One soldier roared out in fury, his eyes bloodshot as he charged for the werewolf.
“Trash! Since you want to die, I’ll grant it to you!” The werewolf laughed cruelly, his body flashing and his claws entered the chest of the soldier.
The soldier revealed an ugly smile as the grenade in his hands landed on the ground, and with a huge boom, the explosion enveloped both of them together.
As the dust settled, the werewolf’s right arm and leg were blasted apart, his body riddled with wounds, but even then, he still had not died.
“How could….this…be?” The werewolf’s eyes were filled with shock, at this time, 2 rocket launchers blasted out on his body, blasting his body apart.
A Divine Envoy of the Kingdom of God had died in combat!
This was the cruel battlefield, even peak Evolvers would be killed by ordinary people they underestimate. After all, these were ordinary soldiers with extraordinary fighting spirit and powerful weapons! Chapter 488: Fierce Battle with the Apostles! Wilson came to the battlefield and saw that while the KoG soldiers had the advantage, they still could not destroy the 3rd Brigade entirely. He chuckled coldly, “What an eyesore! They still haven’t settled this yellow monkeys. Wade, it’s our turn! Let’s go kill all the Evolvers first!”
Wade nodded slightly and immediately charged towards the Special Forces led by Hua Mu La Tuo.
In a few breaths, Wilson and Wade had appeared in front of the Special Forces.
The 2 of them were quadruple-attribute Evolvers, with Strength, Agility, Spirit, and Endurance as their main attributes. They were peak Evolvers and their system equipment was considered top-notch, gathered through the efforts of the Kingdom of God. They were at least Level 4 and above.
Wilson immediately waved his hands the moment he appeared in front of the Mongolian Special Forces, sending 5 blades of air out. That caused 5 soldiers of the 3rd Brigade to be sliced in two at the waist, fresh blood pouring everywhere.
Wade transformed into a blur, with 10 transparent lines on his fingers as sharp as knives. He charged through the crowd, slicing the soldiers into countless parts. Within the Special Forces, no one seemed to be able to defend against the 2 of them.
“Beast!! I’ll kill you!!” Hua Mu La Tuo watched as the 2 Apostles slaughtered his subordinates, and his eyes turned bloodshot, before leading 7 Evolvers towards them.
Hua Mu La Tuo was a Level 60 Spirit-based Evolver, and his main skill was Earth Manipulation. As he slapped down hard on the ground, a number of earth spikes shot out from the ground, each about 6m-tall, striking at Wilson and Wade.
The 2 Apostles flashed and dodged the spikes like ghosts.
“Die!” The 7 Evolvers formed a small team that launched a sudden assault on Wilson with a pronged attack.
A number of Gravity pulses, flaming arrows, flying blades and ice shards formed a myriad of attacks that slammed towards Wilson, together with a few other shockwaves, weapons as well as summon beasts.
“It’s useless! There’s only one outcome for you guys, which is death!” Wilson faced the onslaught of attacks and his face revealed a cold smile. He extended his fingers and 7 large air blades shot out as though they had a will of their own, instantly slicing the 7 Evolvers into halves.
After taking out the 7 Evolvers in a single move, the myriad of attacks dissolved onto an air barrier that Wilson had conjured around him, not damaging him in the slightest.
“How is this possible? How is this strong?” Hua Mu La Tuo stared at the uninjured Wilson, his eyes flashing with shock. The 7 Evolvers had joined hands, and their attack was something even Hu-er Ran dared not face head-on. However, they had actually died in an instant under Wilson’s methods, and Hua Mu La Tuo could not believe his eyes.
“Go to hell!” All of a sudden, there was a shout, and 10 transparent lines pierced through his head before they started spinning and sliced up his brain.
Hua Mu La Tuo, the strongest expert within the 3rd Brigade, had died!
With his death, the rest of the soldiers immediately went crazy, pulling out their weapons and firing madly at the 2 Apostles. They had plenty of experience and knew that if they were to charge forwards like bees, they would only rush to their deaths.
Only by having Hu-er Ran, their own peak Evolver to hold them off, the rest of them could find the chance to take them out.
“Are you guys Apostles?” Just as the 2 brothers were preparing to slaughter the rest of the 3rd Brigade, a voice resounded.
“Leader!”
“Leader is here!!”
“Long live Leader!!”
“…”
The moment the voice resounded, the entire 3rd Brigade cheered out in an earthshaking roar. In the past, they had been Yue Zhong’s enemies, but even then, they were full of respect for him. When on the battlefield, as long as Yue Zhong came personally, they would achieve victory. With such an aura, not only did they roared out in triumph, their morale was pushed high again.
Any troop that had victories and glory under their belt, would be able to grow even more in confidence with each additional victory.
At the same time that Yue Zhong appeared, 8 high-level Treants, 2,000 low-level Treants of above Level 30, as well as the 10 Type 3 Treants charged out and engaged the KoG soldiers.
Wilson and Wade stared fixedly at Yue Zhong, this man was their target. As long as they could kill this man, they would have done a great deed for their organization, and their position in the Kingdom of God would be further cemented. Their resources would be more as well.
The Apostles were the strongest existences of the Kingdom of God, however, there were only 12 Apostles, each of them representing the peak level of power. The closer the number was to 1, the stronger they were. Wilson and Wade were the last 2 Apostles, and they sought to gain a better ranking and foothold. Only then, they would gain more resources.
Wade eyed Yue Zhong with a look of excitement, “You’re Yue Zhong? You’ll die here today! I will use your head as my wine cup. A cup made out of the skull of an expert on the level of us Apostles. It truly makes me excited. Haha!! Go to hell!”
10 strings had already shot out from behind Yue Zhong, making their way towards his head.
Wade had only about a 2km-distance in handling the transparent lines. Within that distance, the strings could even pierce the hulls of armored vehicles. He could also assassinate numerous experts. Before he had become an Apostle, he had made us of this ability to wipe out plenty of strong enemies.
The line moved, and Yue Zhong was filled with a bad feeling. The possibility of death loomed in his heart, and his body was surrounded by a green radiance, as the Bronze Spiritual Bell protected him.
The 10 transparent lines slammed into the shield, and there was a grating sound of metal striking metal.
“You’re an Evolver that makes use of strings!” Yue Zhong discovered that ordinary people could never make out the transparent lines.
“Kill him!!” Wade and Wilson both pointed at Yue Zhong and roared.
The remaining Divine Envoys and Envoys-in-waiting charged at Yue Zhong together with the rest of the Judges.
Yue Zhong watched them and coldly laughed as he ordered, “Fire the cannons!”
Hong! Hong! Hong!
With loud bangs, a volley of heavy artillery came raining down on the elites of the Kingdom of God, blasting many of them into pieces.
300 soldiers were hiding behind cover, armed with laser guns, and they began firing at the KoG soldiers.
Many laser beams shot out towards the KoG soldiers, and one werewolf had was even turned into a sieve with multiple smoking holes on his body. One of them directly pierced his spine, and he crumpled to the floor.
Wade saw the 300 soldiers appeared with laser guns, slaughtering his subordinates, and he roared out in shock, “How is it possible?! You should only have 500 laser guns, how could you have an additional 300 more?!”
In the reports on Yue Zhong, the Kingdom of God thought that Yue Zhong only had 500 laser guns, and the Central Plains weren’t equipped to manufacture them. They had seen that Yue Zhong’s forces had fought off the wave of Mutant Beasts with all the laser guns they assumed Yue Zhong to have, that was why they had launched their attacks.
“Your information is out of date!” Yue Zhong laughed coldly, and opened his palm, as a terrifying Devil Flame dragon shot out towards Wade.
Wade’s expression turned ugly, and he retaliated by sending his strings towards Yue Zhong from different directions. At the same time, more strings shot in front of him to form a huge shield.
The dragon made out of Devil Flame swallowed the shield, and in a flash, it was incinerated. Without stopping, the Devil Flame continued to pounce towards Wade.
Yue Zhong’s flame ability was precisely the bane of Wade’s ability, as the flames could burn the wires that Wade controlled. Other abilities could not do the same.
Wade waved his hands, and a shield of light appeared in front of him.
The Devil Flame dragon exploded on the shield of light and shattered it.
As for Wade, he had retreated dozens of meters.
Wilson’s eyes flashed coldly and he conjured up a blast of air from behind him, sending him hurtling through the air towards Yue Zhong. He pointed at Yue Zhong and sent 7 sharp blades of air towards him.
Yue Zhong had already activated his Shadow Steps and Bone Encompassing Armor, and though he could not see the air blades, he had already sensed them through his danger perception and abundant battle experience. He pulled out his sharpest weapon, the Flame Blade made of the claw of the Flame Bird, and slashed apart 6 of the air blades with a burst of flames.
The last air blade managed to slam into his left shoulder, breaking the bone armor but was stopped by the Type 4 Mutant Sea Snake hide underneath. Chapter 489: Collapse! Yue Zhong was also sent flying back a few meters due to the powerful skill.
Bai Xiao Sheng, who had already evolved into a Strength and Agility dual-attribute Evolver shot towards Wilson with a cold look, bringing his blade down.
“Trash! Die!” Wilson’s attack was broken and his eyes burned with a furious gaze. He pointed towards Bai Xiao Sheng, sending another 4 air blades towards him.
A suffocating pressure enveloped Bai Xiao Sheng and his face fell as he slashed out with blade beams, while retreating quickly.
The 4 air blades managed to breach his attacks and landed on his body. One in particular actually pierced through the Type 3 Mutant Beast hide on his body, leaving a deep wound as fresh blood flowed from his shoulder.
Bai Xiao Sheng looked at Wilson with a look of shock, “Strong!! This is an Apostle of the Kingdom of God? Truly on another level!”
Yue Zhong had led his troops to launch a night raid on the 2 Apostles the other time, and it was due to Yin Shuang that managed to fend off one of the Apostles, while the rest of the soldiers had injured the other Apostle.
As Yin Shuang was tied up with the Type 3 Mutant Beast, these 2 Apostles had appeared with their incredible fighting prowess, and none of Yue Zhong’s subordinates could handle them.
It was precisely because of the Apostles’ strengths that the Kingdom of God was able to expand in so many areas. As long as an Apostle appeared in a local area, there would be almost no trouble whatsoever. Each of them was on par with an entire elite battalion. They could single-handedly destroy a faction of 10,000 with no problems.
Yue Zhong retreated slightly, his eyes flashing and he barked, “Qing Wu! Do it!!”
A 2m-tall blue, human-shaped biological armor suddenly appeared with a 1.5m-long blade, slashing at Wilson with a bright green blade beam.
“Fast!!” Wilson’s face finally fell, and he even felt a sense of danger for the first time. He was forced to retreat, his right hand extending out. 7 sharp blades of wind that could pierce through even the hulls of armored vehicles fired at the blue armor.
Ji Qing Wu was controlling the Biological Armor within, and she did not dodge the incoming air blades, instead, her eyes flashed with a hint of madness. Her blade came slashing down, slicing apart 2 wind blades before she continued towards Wilson. The remaining 5 wind blades landed on the blue Biological Armor, and caused deep gashes, but ultimately not slicing through nor damaging the suit.
Wilson flipped his hands, and a bright shield appeared, blocking in front of him.
The terrifying blade came slashing down on the white shield and split it apart. As the blade continued through its trajectory, Wilson’s Level 4 Defense Vest was sliced through, and his right arm was chopped off.
Ji Qing Wu had chosen to strengthen her sword Qi as her path. Her selected Job was the Swordsman, which allowed her to evolve her skill into the Level 4 Sword Radiance. After enhancing sure-kill skill, when she activated it, it was truly unbridled and uninhibited, slashing through the Type 4 Mutant Beast hide like it was nothing.
However, in training this skill, there was a requirement, which was to give up all long-range attacks. After Ji Qing Wu learned this skill, she had no way of picking up any other long-distance skills through the system.
“AH!!! IT HURTS!!! IT HURTS!!” Wilson’s face was contorted in pain as he grabbed what remained of his right shoulder, and a huge pocket of air blew him up into the sky.
Ji Qing Wu eyed Wilson coldly as he was forced away by her. At the next instant, an Empowered bullet shot through the skies, blasting at Wilson.
Wilson suppressed the pain and conjured another shield, forcefully defending against that shot.
“Wade, retreat!!” Wilson roared out, as he commanded the air around him to propel him through the sky.
“It’s too dangerous, these uncouth yellow monkeys are truly something, seems like we need the 1st Apostle here.” Wade’s heart was shocked, and he abandoned the rest of the KoG soldiers, rushing into the distance.
These Apostles were truly strong, but they were more afraid of death than most others. As long as they remained alive, they could enjoy life’s pleasures, but if they were to die, they would have nothing.
And since each and every Apostle was an important tool of the Kingdom of God, the KoG would not blame them. Even if they decided not to be in the KoG anymore, they could easily become high-ranking members of any other factions. Under such circumstances, with the exception of a few Apostles, the rest were all selfish, and once they felt any danger to their lives, they would choose to retreat.
“They fled real quick!” Yue Zhong watched as Wilson and Wade both abandoned everything with such decisiveness and was shocked. The escape of the 2 Apostles caused much mayhem and chaos within the Kingdom of God soldiers. The remaining Divine Envoys and Envoys-in-waiting immediately fled as well.
The Judges and Adjudicators were plunged into despair, and some became enraged and fought with more vigor, while others threw their weapons down to surrender. Some chose to flee.
As Yue Zhong was intending to execute all of them, the troops of the Alliance fell back from their defense post like a surge of flood waters.
The Alliance was not comparable to the troops of Yue Zhong, and they were already holding on with all their might. After Zhang Jian Xing was assassinated by Erek, the troops crumbled without command.
Zheng Da Long and Su Xing He were both peak level Evolvers with impressive fighting strength, however, the brains behind most of the operations on the ground had been Zhang Jian Xing. With the death of the ‘brains’, the huge troop was easily swatted around by the Mutant Beast horde.
The thousands of soldiers of the Alliance fled in different directions, chasing behind them were the Mutant Beasts.
“AH!! NO!!! AHH!!! AH!!!” One soldier ran slower than the rest, and dozens of Mutant Rats immediately pounced onto him, knocking him to the ground. In an instant, countless Mutant Rats came scurrying, completely burying him out of sight.
When they left, there was only a pile of bloodied bones.
A Type 2 Mutant Bullfrog of about 4m-tall continued to hop quickly, its elongated tongue shooting out once in awhile to latch onto some unfortunate soldiers, sucking them into its mouth. It then clamped down hard with its mutated sharp teeth, crushing the soldiers before gobbling them.
Zheng Da Long and Su Xing He fled quickly, and they instantly jumped over the rest of the soldiers, making their way out of town.
As Zheng Da Long was about to escape successfully, the castle-like Mutant Giant Turtle activated its innate ability, firing out a terrifying mist of frost.
Wherever the mist touched, everything would be frozen solid in an instant, turning into shiny ice sculptures. Zheng Da Long was caught in the mist, and he immediately froze. Within the ice sculpture, his expression of shock could be seen. Su Xing He saw this and his face turned pale. With a flicker of his body, he disappeared into a house within the town.
By now, the entire town had been surrounded by the Mutant Beasts. Those soldiers that tried to flee out were easily picked off.
Under such circumstances, the Alliance soldiers could only flee towards the defense post of Yue Zhong’s troops as it was the safest.
The disorder caused the soldiers of the Alliance and Kingdom of God to be squeezed together, and both immediately engaged in a slaughter among themselves.
Yue Zhong took a look at the chaos and his eyes blazed with fury, “The Kingdom of God is truly damnable!”
Originally, the Alliance and Yue Zhong’s troops could still somewhat hold off the Mutant Beast Horde. However, the balance was broken because of the interference of the Kingdom of God, and even Yue Zhong’s troops were plunged into danger. If they were not careful, Yue Zhong’s troops might end up being annihilated.
“Save me! Let me through!”
“Help!!
“…”
The soldiers of the Alliance rushed past the KoG soldiers and tried to plead with the soldiers of Yue Zhong. Behind them were the Mutant Beasts, and in front of them was dense gunfire. They could only beg Yue Zhong for help.
Yue Zhong went to a corner and roared out, “ALL OF YOU COME HERE! Put down your weapons and get in orderly!”
The soldiers of the Alliance all heaved a sigh of relief and came to the designated point to put down their weapons.
The Judges and Adjudicators of the Kingdom of God also raised their hands and called out, “We surrender! We surrender!!”
Being abandoned by the 2 Apostles, those elite soldiers of the KoG felt despair, they didn’t want to die in the jaws of those Mutant Beasts as well.
These elites of the Kingdom of God might be Aryans but they were also humans and feared death just like anyone else. After being deserted by their leaders, their fighting spirit plunged.
Yue Zhong pondered a while and chose to accept the surrender of the KoG elites, “Come over here, and put down your weapons, before lining up orderly.” Chapter 490: Fierce Battle with the Type 3s! The KoG elites also began to put down their weapons and submitted to Yue Zhong.
At this time, the Mutant Giant Turtle turned its head and looked at Yue Zhong’s side. It opened its huge mouth and shot out the freezing mist again.
As the cold air churned, a number of elites of the KoG and soldiers from the 3rd Brigade froze solid.
Yue Zhong glanced at the Mutant Giant Turtle and hollered, “Fire the cannons!!”
Hong! Hong! Hong!
A number of heavy cannons immediately rained down upon the area that the Mutant Giant Turtle was at, blasting dozens of the Type 2 Mutant Beasts around it into pieces.
As the dust cleared, a huge chunk of ice appeared in Yue Zhong’s eyes. Within it, the Type 3 Mutant Giant Turtle was uninjured, it was just that the ice was shattered all around it.
The Type 3 Mutant Giant Turtle was extremely slow, and even at its maximum speed, it was only about 10 times faster than an ordinary human. However, its innate ice ability was extremely strong, using it to turn other Type 3 Mutant Beasts into ice, and as defense, it can wrap itself such that even cannons could not damage it.
Even so, withstanding that volley of attacks had depleted much of the Type 3 Mutant Giant Turtle’s ability, and it could not utilize its innate ability for the time being.
On the other side, the Type 3 Mutant Dog had finally been defeated by Yin Shuang as its corpse dropped into the town. A number of soldiers quickly came forward to bring the body away to deal with it.
Every single part of the Type 3 Mutant Dog was a treasure, and Yue Zhong would not allow it to be devoured by other Mutant Beasts.
When the Type 3 Mutant Dog was killed by Yin Shuang, the Type 3 Lykoi and Type 3 Gold-scaled Rat King charged at her.
“Great! Since you’re all Father’s enemies, I’ll pummel all of you!!” Yin Shuang watched the approaching Type 3 Mutant Beasts and her beautiful eyes flashed with an excitement. The battle lust in her blood boiled, and her entire being leaped into the air, bringing her fist whistling towards the claws of the 2 Type 3 Mutant Beasts.
Following a terrifying shockwave, the Type 3 Mutant Lykoi and Gold-scaled Rat King were both sent flying by Yin Shuang, and they both spat out blood.
Shockingly, these 2 close combat-type Mutant Beasts were not a match for Yin Shuang even after joining hands.
Just as Yin Shuang blasted the 2 Type 3 Mutant Beasts back, the huge Type 3 Black-scaled Ferocious Boar turned its attention to her and opened its mouth to fire its innate ability. It was a powerful soundwave that was condensed into a ball like a cannon that hurtled towards Yin Shuang.
Without enough time to react, Yin Shuang bore the full brunt of the soundwave, and her little figure trembled slightly, losing control for the first time.
The Type 3 Black-spotted Spider immediately sprang forth and channeled its own ability, which was its silk, turning into spikes even sharper and tougher than steel beams.
As Yin Shuang was still reeling from the soundwave, her body was numb and she could not control herself. At the next moment, those silk spikes shot and pierced into her. While her defense was terrifying enough to block the impact of guns and cannons, faced with those sharp spikes, she was helpless.
“It hurts!! It hurts!! Father, I’m in pain!!” Yin Shuang’s face contorted in pain when she was pierced by those spider silk, and tears flowed down her cheeks, while blood trickled from her lips.
The current state that Yin Shuang was in right now was pitiful, just like a doll that had been toyed with till it was ragged.
The Type 3 Black-spotted Spider tugged once forcefully, pulling Yin Shuang towards it. Suddenly, there was a large burst of flames in the skies, turning the spider silks into cinders.
Yue Zhong appeared by Yin Shuang’s side and held her tightly in his arms. He saw the numerous wounds caused by the Type 3 Black-spotted Spider, and the frail-looking Yin Shuang, his expression full of heartache as he spoke, “I’m sorry Yin Shuang, I came late!”
Yin Shuang didn’t look like a fierce monster that could punch 2 Mutant Beasts away right now, instead, she looked like a broken little girl.
Yin Shuang saw Yue Zhong’s face and her eyes lit up with happiness, “You’re not late Father. Father is really Yin Shuang’s hero! Yin Shuang loves Father a lot!”
“Turn to ash!” Yue Zhong turned to face the Type 3 Black-spotted Spider and with a ferocious look, he sent a terrifying tornado of Devil Flames towards the Mutant Beast.
At the same time, a number of laser beams fired at the other Type 3 Mutant Beasts, preventing them from assisting the Type 3 Black-spotted Spider.
The Type 3 Black-spotted Spider seemed to sense the imminent threat of death and opened its mouth to spit out a huge amount of silk that was even tougher than alloy towards the approaching flames.
As the spider silk came in contact with the flaming tornado, it instantly sizzled and turned to ash, and soon, the Type 3 Black-spotted Spider was also enveloped by the flames.
As the flames disappeared, there was only a Beast Nuclei on the ground.
After killing the Type 3 Black-spotted Spider in a single strike, 2 gusts of wind blew towards him forcefully, as the Type 3 Lykoi and Type 3 Gold-scaled King Rat charged at him with a terrifying speed. Their claws made to slash towards his head with the speed of sound. Currently, Yue Zhong’s arms were wrapped around Yin Shuang, and he had no means of facing the 2 Type 3 Mutant Beasts at the same time.
Right at this time, from the dark, a small odachi slashed out with a profound beam, slashing onto the Type 3 Lykoi.
In a flash, Tenpyo Saka was knocked back dozens of meters by the immense strength of the Type 3 Lykoi. Her odachi was also sent flying away. After all, her strength was far from the Type 3 Mutant Beasts.
However, the strike of the Type 3 Lykoi was also deflected by Tenpyo Saka.
At this time, Ji Qing Wu came slashing down on the Type 3 Lykoi with her blue Biological Armor, and the mighty sword beam sliced the Type 3 Lykoi in half.
A blue treasure box appeared beside the corpse of the Type 3 Lykoi, and the Beast Nucleus was sent flying into Yin Shuang’s hands.
Yin Shuang looked at the nucleus, and her eyes flashed with a gleam. She threw the nucleus into her mouth and began to chomp on it. The nucleus that was impervious to even the slash of Ji Qing Wu was crushed into pieces by Yin Shuang before she swallowed it.
The moment she consumed the Type 3 Nucleus, Yin Shuang’s wounds that were caused by the Type 3 Black-spotted Spider began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, her body also grew about 1cm.
On the other side, facing the slash of the Type 3 Gold-scaled Rat King, Yue Zhong flipped his available hand, causing a shield of light to appear and block the strike forcefully.
After taking that single hit, the shield of light shattered.
“Go to hell!” Yue Zhong took the chance and raised his right hand to fire out a beam of fiery hot Devil Flame that condensed into a spear-form that penetrated the head of the Type 3 Gold-scaled Rat King, before combusting within and frying its brain.
As they eliminated these few Type 3 Mutant Beasts, the Type 3 Iron Bull managed to breach the area where the cannons were firing upon and galloped into the town.
A number of laser beams that fired from all directions formed a net that pierced the body of the Type 3 Iron Bull, turning it into a sieve. A few beams penetrated its head, and halfway through its charge, it slumped to the floor, and it became the first Type 3 Mutant Beast that perished at the hands of ordinary soldiers.
As it fell, from behind, the Type 3 Ferocious Ape came leaping forward together with the Type 3 Mutant Black Gorilla. These 2 Type 3 Mutant Beasts had no innate abilities, but their Strength, Speed, Recovery, and Defense were on another level, and they didn’t seem to have any weak points.
The Type 3 Ferocious Ape charged into the camp of Yue Zhong’s troops and with a single palm, it slapped many soldiers dead. When the laser beams landed on its body, they only caused minor wounds. It wasn’t enough to endanger its life.
The Type 3 Black Gorilla pounced over to Yue Zhong.
From a distance away, the Type 3 Black-scaled Ferocious Boar had also come to a stop, as it opened its mouth to fire a soundwave blast at Yue Zhong.
Yue Zhong had already experienced the might of such an attack before, and the moment the Type 3 Black-scaled Ferocious Boar opened its mouth, he had activated his Shadow Steps and dodged to the side.
The soundwave also had its weak point, which was that it could only travel in a straight trajectory, and could not be manipulated to turn.
The soundwave blast landed in an area, causing a number of the elite soldiers to bleed from their orifices and die. They were not as hardy as Yin Shuang after all.
Yue Zhong had just moved, when the Type 3 Black Gorilla appeared in front of him, its fist punching towards him with the pressure of Mt. Tai.
Right at this moment, Yin Shuang leaped up from Yue Zhong’s embrace and lifted her tiny fists to meet the punch from the Type 3 Black Gorilla.
Hong!
Following a powerful impact, the Type 3 Black Gorilla was sent flying about 5 meters, while Yin Shuang also flew back about 7 to 8 meters.
