Chapter 1708: Ripple
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Most of the safety measures and alarm systems had been destroyed by the ferocious rats.
These monsters had most likely been artificially created in a biochemical laboratory. They had extremely sharp teeth that could easily lacerate, and they could spray strong acids that corroded everything in their path. They were practically killing machines.
As the ferocious rats bit through the pipes, the mithril stabilization liquid that was supposed to stabilize the monster materials flowed all over the floor.
The temperature of the warehouse, which was at a low minus thirty to fifty degrees, began to rise too.
The monster materials and crystals stored in the warehouse were releasing increasingly intense ripples of spirit energy.
!!
They were reminiscent of hot oil that was about to boil.
A lot of liquid monster materials, such as Hell’s Blood, flowed out of the holes that the rats had created, and the liquid gradually soaked into the other materials, including crystals containing terrifying energy. Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle, gurgle. A series of dense bubbles popped up. Mysterious and unpredictable reactions were taking place.
These reactions were putting Meng Chao in danger.
He closed his eyes, and his brain cells vibrated at a high frequency. His deduction skills were pushed to the limit as vivid pictures quickly appeared before his eyes.
They were all pictures that would turn into reality in half a minute.
First of all, with the Hell Blood’s continuous “infiltration,” it would invade the core of the crystal, at the latest, in half a minute.
The consequence of an intense reaction between two spirit energies of different natures was instantaneous combustion and explosion.
Right now, a lot of monster materials and crystals that had been refined were at the critical point of an intense reaction in the warehouse.
The explosion would definitely be like an avalanche, triggering an unstoppable chain reaction.
In the end, the third to fifth floors of the building would be blown to pieces.
A large amount of burning explosive material would be pushed by the shock wave like a meteor shower, splashing onto the heads of the people below.
At that moment, the entire street right below the building was crowded with panic-stricken ordinary citizens.
If the explosion really happened, hundreds of people would be killed or injured in an instant.
Plenty of explosive substances of complicated natures would mix together and continue to burn. The more they burned, the more poisonous smoke would be released, which would then cause more casualties and chaos.
“Has the Blood Alliance gone mad?”
Meng Chao gnashed his teeth. “To achieve their goal, they even turned Dragon City’s downtown area into a burning battlefield of hell!”
Meng Chao took a deep breath and pushed his calculation and deduction abilities to the limit.
Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!
His eyes were as sharp as lightning as he scanned the whole area. He also scanned all the ordinary citizens on the street who would be affected by the explosion.
As crystal-clear virtual human beings appeared on a virtual, translucent street in his mind, Meng Chao frantically calculated a way to get everyone out of the explosion.
The crowd, the rat tide, the zombies, and the explosion that was about to happen all turned into the most basic data. They were like dancing crystal butterflies, frolicking on his cerebral cortex.
Ten seconds later, Meng Chao came up with a solution.
His eyes were shining, and light that was even brighter than that of a crystal seemed to overflow from his eyes. It turned into several thousand streams of light and instantly circulated his body, filling every fiber of his muscles with a wave-like power.
When another zombie exploded twenty to thirty meters away from the crowd, the crowd let out a series of exclamations, and the surge of people suddenly increased. Countless people were pushing and shoving each other, and many people were about to fall and be trampled on.
Meanwhile, Meng Chao was like a loach, drilling into the depths of the crowd.
Right then, his skin, which was hidden under his clothes, was covered in a layer of silver-colored substance that resembled liquid metal.
The jumping of each strand of his muscle fibers was still clearly visible.
The high-frequency vibration turned into undulations that rippled out. Enhanced by the liquid metal substance, they instantly became powerful ripples.
“Ripple Force, activate!”
Meng Chao unleashed one of the three basic force execution methods, which almost everyone in Dragon City knew, the Ripple Force!
However, the same basic force execution technique gushed out of his body and turned into an incredibly unique skill!
Meng Chao carried his weight lithely and bumped into an ordinary citizen next to him.
This ordinary citizen, whose body was a little thin and weak, had been pushed by everyone until he was on the verge of collapsing. He was about to fall under everyone’s feet when he suddenly felt a power surging into his body.
The strange thing was that this power did not disturb his internal organs, limbs, and bones. Instead, it helped him stabilize his body and allowed him to take a big step forward. He subsequently crashed into a burly man who was eight feet tall.
The thin and weak citizen thought that he would bounce back, as though he had crashed into an iron wall.
Unexpectedly, the power that was like a wave mysteriously materialized in his body. It flowed through his shoulder and into the body of the burly citizen in front of him.
The burly man did not resist at all. He was like a meek lamb that was ramming his way forward.
Just like that, the wave-like power continuously passed from citizen to citizen.
Each time it passed, the old power became slightly weakened, but the ordinary citizens added new power to it.
As a result, the chain that formed nonstop actually extended for thirty to fifty meters without breaking.
Earlier, the panicked citizens had been like headless chickens, bumping against each other.
Although everyone wanted to run in the same direction, since the rat tide and zombies were chasing after them, everyone wanted to be one step faster. In addition, there were tall, short, fat, and thin people of different strengths. They could not form a rope at all. They just pushed, bumped, and interfered with each other. Even though they were not stuck together, they were incredibly slow. The scene was akin to a sewer that was full of debris after years of neglect.
Now, however, the rippling power that came from somewhere behind them unexpectedly smoothed out the direction in which everyone was exerting their strength. It made everyone think in the same direction and exert their strength in the same direction. Unknowingly, they had gathered into a surging wave that moved forward.
In just a few short seconds, the originally-scattered crowd had actually turned into an orderly army. Besides, their advancing speed had increased by at least three to five times.
The hundreds of citizens at the front walked in orderly steps and quickly passed through the building that was about to explode.
However, just as the citizens at the back were about to follow, they seemed to bump into an invisible glass window and were forced to halt their footsteps!
