Five Frozen Centuries - Chapter 252
Chapter 252: Huge Creature
The intercontinental missile pierced the clouds and changed direction. It flew toward the mission coordinates. All the Legendary creatures in the Northern Continent felt their blood run cold. However, they did not know what had happened. They only looked up at the sky.
In the primitive forest northwest of the Northern Continent, an extremely huge ball of meat that looked like a Tai Sui[1] was entrenched on a huge mountain. The mountain used to be the territory of a Legendary demon. However, at that moment, this race had turned into nourishment for the huge ball of meat.
Countless insects, Thunder Beasts, dogs, and poisonous bees were patrolling the huge meatball attached to the mountain. The enormous meatball grew several spikes that drilled into the ground and kept on drilling.
More dogs and poisonous bees started hunting other creatures. The Thunder Beast kept pushing down small mountains, opening up roads, and flattening the mountain range. Many building larvae the size of cows were building buildings. Most of the buildings were built with stones and their mucus. They looked like protruding stone towers. Many plasma insects climbed up the stone towers and observed their surroundings vigilantly.
After countless Zerg soldiers hunted their prey, they would send them to the broodmother. At that moment, a huge mouth would appear on the huge meatball and devour all the food. Then, the spikes would become thicker and stronger, and the digging would become more intense.
The gigantic meatball was the only level-four broodmother in the Northern Continent. Its antennae were as hard as a drill, and it said coldly, “When I enter the underground magma layer and obtain enough energy, I will be able to recover indefinitely. Then, even an ultimate lifeform will not be able to kill me!”
However, at that moment, a long object appeared under the clouds on the horizon. The object was holding a flame and dragging a long trail of smoke as it flew toward the location of the level-four broodmother at a very fast speed.
The level-four broodmother was confused. What was that?
A moment later, the long object fell toward the level-four broodmother. The level-four broodmother immediately sent countless poisonous bees to stop it. However, the moment the poisonous bees collided with the long object, an extremely terrifying explosion occurred.
There was a human lethal weapon hidden in an intercontinental missile. It then fell and a terrifying explosion took place. First, there was a burst of flaming light from the explosion. The flames were extremely dazzling and almost illuminated the whole world. Shock waves spread out one after another. The level-four broodmother could not escape. The huge killing weapon just happened to explode above her head.
“This is…” Before dying, the level-four broodmother only had time to say one sentence. “This is the nuclear fusion technology of a level-three technological civilization. Why does this planet have such advanced technology? Isn’t this a planet of mutant beasts?”
The level-four broodmother was dead. The light, heat, and shock waves from the nuclear fusion bomb had hit its body.
The hydrogen bomb was humanity’s ultimate weapon. It had finally been manufactured and was no longer hidden by humans. It had been used at that moment.
The level-four broodmother could easily kill Legendary-level creatures manufactured by the system. Besides, she had been trying to dig into the ground and reach the magma layer to obtain the planet’s energy. Unfortunately, the humans’ killing weapon had descended and destroyed it easily. At the same time, countless Zergs had been destroyed. The powerful Zerg Queen and the Thunderous Beast were also helpless against the killing weapon.
A terrifying mushroom cloud appeared, and the clouds in the sky were swept away by the powerful shock wave. The strategic weapon was shockingly powerful. Humans probably wanted to intimidate all races, which was why they had used their most powerful weapon. The hydrogen bomb with the largest yield was indeed shocking. Not only had it wiped out the level-four broodmother, but it had also created a huge pit in the ground. Even the burrowing tentacles had been completely destroyed.
After the level-four broodmother was destroyed, the few remaining broodmothers immediately emitted spiritual waves. “It’s a nuclear fusion weapon of a technological civilization. How is that possible? Didn’t the scan show that this is a planet only inhabited by mutated beasts?”
It seemed like the broodmothers in the Northern Continent could only communicate with others within the Northern Continent. They did not know that mushroom clouds had appeared in other continents.
Humans hid their knowledge too well. As long as the theories and knowledge were still there, so what if the weapons disappeared over time? Humans could still manufacture them.
At that moment, all the demons in the Northern Continent were shocked. They had not expected the Zerg broodmothers, who had given them a headache, to be destroyed just like that by a weak-looking human.
In just over 10 minutes, the appearance of the Legendary human and the terrifying killing weapon of the Human Race had shocked them. Many demons were already afraid.
“Is this the potential of humans? In just 100 years, not only have Epic-ranked creatures been born, but Legendary creatures have also been born. They even have terrifying weapons.”
“Legend has it that humans once rampaged through this land many years ago. They left for some reason. Is this true? Have they returned?”
The demons following Wei Huo fell silent. They had thought that the human race only had one Legendary creature rise up. They had not expected the human race to have such a powerful weapon. If they were given one, the consequences would be unimaginable.
A demon asked, “If humans have such powerful weapons, why didn’t they use them earlier?”
An old demon thought about it for a moment and said, “Since it’s a weapon, if humans can control it, we demons can naturally control it as well. Without the Legendary human, humans would not dare to use such a weapon.”
The old demon was right. Such a powerful weapon could not be used unless there was a life-and-death situation.
The advantage of a country could not be easily revealed to others. Such a terrifying killing weapon had to be used at the most critical moment. For example, now that the Legendary human was out and the killing weapon had been used, many demons had started to fear humans. Some demons even planned to send envoys to contact humans and learn their skills.
“It turns out that the panda, the canine, and the cat races had known all this long ago. That’s why they were so friendly with humans. They must have learned a lot about human technology. If they have also learned how to manufacture this huge killing weapon…”
“Send news back to the clan quickly. We must not become enemies with the humans. Immediately draw a clear line with the demons who are enemies with the humans.”
The level-four broodmother had been killed by the hydrogen bomb. The other Zerg broodmothers did not dare be arrogant anymore. They hid one after another. Some even hid deep under the ground and waited for an opportunity.
The humans and demons of the Northern Continent let out a sigh of relief. The Zergs had finally retreated. Although they were terrifying, they had still retreated.
At that moment, Wei Huo opened his eyes and looked at the sky with his golden pupils. Soon, all the creatures in the Northern Continent heard a deafening roar that seemed like it could crack the sky.
As this roar echoed, the clouds in the sky suddenly collapsed. A gigantic shadow then appeared above the clouds.
Everyone, including the demons, lifted their heads and looked at the sky. They suddenly felt an irrepressible fear. It was as if the end of the world was about to arrive. It made their hearts feel heavy, as if there was a weight pressing down on them.
“What is that?” Everyone could not suppress the fear in their hearts, as that creature was huge. Just by looking at the shadow behind the clouds, they felt that a continent had fallen from the sky.
At that moment, even the Zerg broodmother was trembling and emitting spiritual waves. “It’s appeared. It’s the Leviathan. The Zerg’s strongest combat power!”
