Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 485

Chapter 485: The Monster Horde Is Prepared to Attack!

Fortunately, Meng Chao was half a second faster than the three robbers, and they were unable to activate the crystal bombs in time.

And before they could bring out new crystal bombs, Meng Chao moved like a tornado. He attacked and reduced them to a pulp.

By then, Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong had defeated more than ten robbers.

When a superhuman at the peak of Heaven Realm activated his vitality magnetic field fully, it was the same as creating a domain where they were supreme. If the people in it were much weaker, they would not be able to fight back at all.

Zhou Chong was even more ruthless than Meng Chao. The robbers he sent flying were usually torn to shreds, and their severed limbs had terrifying wounds. There were huge saw teeth marks at the severed parts, which made it look like the robbers were attacked by a shark. That was how the Man-eating Shark gained his fearsome name.

Soon, the robbers’ lives inside and outside the room were taken by the duo.

Only Big Brother Knife, Chen Hao was left.

At the moment he saw the ceiling collapse, he made his decision and ran to the window to escape through there.

Unfortunately, one of his legs and arms was missing. Even though he had machine prosthetics, they suffered interference from the spirit energy magnetic field released by Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong. The joints released cracking sounds as the gears got stuck together. They did not work properly and ended up as a burden.

When Chen Hao arrived at the window in a limp and climbed up, Meng Chao finished fighting.

When he jumped out, Meng Chao brought out his chain sabers and bound his good leg. The chilling blade dug deep into his inner thigh and dragged him back. He crashed onto the floor.

Zhou Chong ran over to remind Meng Chao to search for whether this person had any weapons that he could use in desperation or whether he had any secret communicators on him, but Meng Chao was much more experienced than Zhou Chong thought. His hands turned into two gray lights as he searched Big Brother Knife.

He found a poisoned dagger, two mini bombs the size of fingernails that could be used to break shackles or locks, a vial of highly corrosive acid, and a communicator that was hidden in place of his missing molar. He could transmit information by knocking his teeth together.

Naturally, there were also three Deification Capsules.

However, Big Brother Knife was different from the stupid robbers. He loved his life a lot, so he did not readily use that illegal drug that would drain his life.

When he saw that all the tools that could save his life were discovered, Big Brother Knife looked dejected and slumped down on the floor.

Zhou Chong looked around. When he saw that all the robbers were curled up like dead dogs, he sighed in relief.

Now that things had progressed to this state, all they could do was report the situation to the command center.

“They’re even more wary than we expected. Thank goodness Meng Chao thought quick, so we got to capture Chen Hao,” Zhou Chong said. “Give us some time. We’ll definitely make him tell us about the mastermind.”

“Alright, but do it quick,” Nie Chenglong replied. “The situation has changed again. Aside from the three large residential areas I told you about, we’ve also discovered signs of the zombie virus and Blood Flower spores causing havoc in other places in the east, west, and north, including a few large developing areas in Shattered Starlake.

“Signs of a monster horde invasion have also been discovered in the crystal mining areas and smelting plants that had large amounts of resources invested in them. We aren’t yet sure what level of danger the beast horde poses and whether there are any Hell Beasts and even Apocalyptic Beasts serving as garrisons for the normal monsters.

“But during such a critical moment, there’s no way that it’s a coincidence that monster hordes appeared in three different directions.

“The crystal mines and smelting plants are important construction projects of this year and next year. They are also facilities that we cannot be missing in our strategy to completely level the monsters’ nests. They cannot be destroyed by the monster hordes.

“So, aside from the Red Dragon Army issuing the highest level of alarm, a large batch of high-end fighting power and even the peak forces of Deity Realm have left the main city area to head to the various crystal mines and smelting plants.

“If the situation in the lair goes completely out of control during this moment and the flames of fire burn in the heart of the city, things will become very troublesome!”

Once Nie Chenglong finished speaking, he sent a few videos from the new developing areas and crystal mines outside the city to the veteran hunters’ retinas through the neural tactical data link interactor.

Over the last year, Dragon City had been somewhat extreme as it colonized the areas around it.

To occupy the tactically important places that had a lot of spirit energy, ley lines underground, and a lot of minerals, many of the forward operating bases entered the wild like fangs of a beast piercing into flesh. But the areas were surrounded by fog. Not only did it block their field of vision, the spirit energy interference could also easily affect the superhumans’ fighting strength.

Ten years ago, Dragon Citizens would have never dared to invest a large amount of resources into such places and start up a large-scale construction.

But during the Raging Waves Battle and the series of battles after it, the strongest of humanity killed more than ten Apocalyptic Beasts in one go. As for Hell Beasts, they killed so many of them that they could not count. Dozens of nests belonging to the kings of beasts were uprooted. Plenty of fierce beasts had to form packs and move deeper into Monster Mountain Range. They even began to flee the moment they saw the dust stirred up by the humans’ fighting vehicles.

Dragon Citizens had not seen a real monster horde for a long time.

Their counterattack had been going on smoothly, so many people became arrogant, and they even said overbearing things like, “Humans are born to be surrounded by creatures worshipping us.”

Be it the mega corporations or the unlicensed pathfinding teams, all of them rushed outside the city to occupy their own territories. Even though the Survival Committee and Supernatural Tower had warned them plenty of times to control and protect the supply lines and not expand recklessly but according to the overall plan of Dragon City, the people faced the possibility of getting 300% profit. Even the helpless normal citizens had the courage to provoke monsters with such a prize, much less the superhumans who were ambitious, wanted to rise to power in one go, build their own success, and even leave behind their names in history.

Everyone fought for their territories, and no one listened to the Supernatural Tower, because anyone who did would lose the chance to obtain a large amount of cultivation resources and be under everyone else’s control. They would then never be able to get to the legendary Deity Realm. This was something every superhuman and every force created by superhumans was unable to tolerate.

Ambition like that was a double-edged sword.

The good side was that the superhumans who were driven by ambition had expanded Dragon City’s occupied territory three times its original size within a short year.

The bad side was that now that Dragon City was three times bigger than before, it had finally reached the limits of its expansion capacity. It would not even be a stretch to say that it had unknowingly gone over the limits of its expansion capacity. Now, it was once again in the situation it faced during the northern offense. It had to be on guard on every front, and it had a shortage of fighting power. The main city area was in an awkward situation where it had weak spots everywhere in its defenses. If being truthful, though, it was even worse than before.

After all, at that time, Dragon City had only one supply line leading to the north, and it was connected to the important facilities in Shattered Starlake, Graveyard Forest, and Raging Waves.

Now, new developing areas and mining dredgers the size of Shattered Starlake were everywhere.

It was only at this moment that Dragon Citizens noticed that they seemed to have leapt too far and sprained their legs.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The shadows of monsters had already appeared in the fog around the forward operating bases and new developing areas.

Even though they were hidden by the fog and the humans could not see the monster species and their numbers, based on the repeating and bone-chilling howls, there were plenty of them.

For the moment, the monsters were mobilizing their forces and gathering strength.

Once they charged out of the fog like a tidal wave, they would give the harshest test to humanity’s defense line, which had now become much longer.

Of course, the number of powerful fighters and the average strength of superhumans in Dragon City had increased by a large degree after benefiting from the large amount of resources they gained from expanding madly. They might be able to stop the monster invasion coming from all directions.

After all, the complicated defense that had penetrated several kilometers into the fog had killed the elites of the monster civilization, so the monsters were spent. This defense line might actually be good enough for human civilization’s next step in the war.

But this meant that a trench warfare was about to start at the perimeter of Dragon City, and it would last for days, weeks, or perhaps even months. It would continue day and night, and blood would spill.

Human civilization and monster civilization would have to stake everything they had.

At such a crucial moment, there was definitely a huge decrease in the number of high-end fighting power and soldiers that could be sent into the lair.

Meng Chao and Zhou Chong understood the gravity of the situation.

They also realized that the monster hordes the enemy mobilized at the perimeter of the city, the zombie viruses and Blood Flower spores that were projected into Dragon City, and the Deification Capsule cases in the lair were definitely connected.

They had to figure out the truth of the Deification Capsules as soon as possible and control the situation in the lair.

No matter what, chaos could not erupt in the lair.

With this thought in mind, Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong’s eyes became fierce. With a murderous look, he walked to Big Brother Knife, Chen Hao.

“Senior Zhou, let me try.”

Meng Chao expressionlessly blocked Zhou Chong.

There were professionals for everything. Zhou Chong might be the best hunter there was, but his prey in the past had always been monsters.

If they did not have any unique kinks, hunters would definitely not interrogate or torture monsters.

But based on the memories Meng Chao had as a Ghost Tribe member, he often had to get information from various intelligent races in the Other World.

Meng Chao believed that Chen Hao’s mouth was definitely not as tightly sealed as those of the dwarves, who were hot-tempered and stubborn.

Crack!

Meng Chao did not ask any questions. He just crushed Chen Hao’s ankle.

Chen Hao only had his right leg left unharmed.

At that moment, his sole was bent to a bizarre 90 degrees. White, fragmented bones jutted out of the bloody wound.

He was in so much pain that his face turned stark pale and he could not hold back the piercing scream bubbling in his throat.

Meng Chao struck his chest and nearly crushed his lungs. It forced the scream back into his throat.

Cold sweat broke out on Zhou Chong’s skin. He twitched neurotically, which showed that he was enduring unbearable pain.

There was no mercy on Meng Chao’s face.

Of course, he would not show any other emotion, either.

Instead, he stomped on the area around one inch above the wound on Chen Hao’s ankle.
