Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 657
Chapter 657: Meng Chao Is Here!
“Eh, we’re the same!” Xie Feng did not deny it and grinned, “I don’t believe that you’ve used your full power either. All of the Four Great Kings are rubbing their palms and just waiting to slaughter the super monster horde when they come and rush to the top ten of the achievement points ranking board of the alliance of the five universities.”
Duan Lian snorted as an agreement.
However, if he wanted to become outstanding among the dozens of people in the same batch as he was in the alliance of the five universities and reach the top ten, it would not be easy.
After all, they were just the Four Great Kings of Agricultural University’s martial arts course.
Wu Wu of the monster controller course was in Agricultural University alone. She had a firm seat above them.
Meanwhile, there were other specially recruited students who were of the same rank as Wu Wu in the University of Technology, the military school, and the University of Science. Take Shao Jianqing as an example, she was the one who inherited the Female Battle Goddess’ heroic spirit. Each one of them was stronger than the last, and they had no problem killing more than ten Hell Beasts alone.
The Four Great Kings were weak, and it was hard to compete against these beasts!
However, the one with the highest achievement points among their peers in the pitched battle at the border of Dragon City was not in the alliance of the five universities.
It was Wang Dao of Dragon City University’s martial arts course.
Ever since he lost to Meng Chao during the interuniversity tournament between Dragon City University and the alliance of the five universities, he also lost his title of the champion, which he had retained for more than ten years. After that, Wang Dao cultivated one hundred times harder than before.
What was even rarer was that he did not decide to shut himself off to other schools of martial arts because he belonged to the Overkill Style in Dragon City University’s martial arts course and was the rising star of Overkill Style.
Instead, he learned the unique points and advantages of the Ultimate Style and tried his hardest to blend the advanced theories of the Ultimate Style into the Overkill Style to largely cover the weakness of the Overkill Style’s long preparation and cooldown time, along with its weakness of having spirit energy magnetic fields that were too complicated.
During the past year or so, Wang Dao did not appear within the sights of his peers. It was as if he had been unable to get himself back to his feet and faded into obscurity.
But all his hard work was rewarded during this pitched battle.
Over the past three days and three nights, he and the students from Dragon City University’s martial arts course destroyed seven monster hordes, and Wang Dao himself killed nineteen Hell Beasts and nearly one hundred Nightmarish Beasts.
Even if he had the support of long-distance artillery and the Red Dragon Army, this number was something terrifying to behold.
Based on the fighting videos Wang Dao uploaded to the battle network, he was now at the peak of Earth Realm and was prepared to challenge Heaven Realm.
Shao Jianqing was the only one from the alliance of the five universities who could hope to compete against this beast because she had the Female Battle Goddess supporting her.
At the very least, people at the levels of Duan Lian and Xie Feng would not treat Wang Dao as their target for the time being. That was just asking for a slap in the face, and they would have a destructive blow delivered to their pride.
Of course, apparently, Meng Chao was even stronger than Wang Dao and was the first among them to reach Heaven Realm.
However, Duan Lian, Xie Feng, and the other students already did not treat Meng Chao purely as a student from the alliance of the five universities.
Before he even graduated, he had stopped the abnormal beasts’ schemes several times, and he could even become friends with the tutors, chat happily with the dean of the department, and even make business deals with the chancellor. Was such a person even a student?
So, if Duan Lian and Xie Feng were normal beasts, and if Wu Wu, Shao Jianqing, and Wang Dao were dinosaurs, then Meng Chao was literally a monster.
Speaking of which, many students were skeptical about Meng Chao reaching Meng Chao.
They did not doubt his cultivation realm, it was just that there were plenty of ways to reach Heaven Realm.
There were plenty of people who invested a large number of resources, ran into some blessings, and were especially lucky, so their fighting capabilities on paper reached that of those in Heaven Realm. This was a method that plenty of people could accept as well.
After they reached Heaven Realm, they used around three to eight years to slowly digest the resources, then turn their fighting capabilities on paper into real strength.
…Meng Chao should be in this category, right?
That was why he went into isolated training over the past few months and did not even join the pitched battle that would decide the future of Dragon City. This was something that was understandable.
Not only did the students understand it, they even sighed in relief.
They had no other choice. If they stood together on the same battlefield as a monster like Meng Chao, they just could not be motivated to fight. They would just want to wave their flags by the side and cheer loudly for him.
With that thought in him, Duan Lian decided to motivate Xie Feng. At the same time, he also motivated himself. “Meng Chao is ahead of us, but we might be able to catch up to him later.
“I heard that half a year ago, during the Noble Descent Hotel ambush, Meng Chao received a blessing, so I think he’ll need a few years to completely digest this blessing and stabilize his position as a four-star superhuman. This is a good chance for us!
“As long as we get rid of the monster horde, the mobile force of the monsters will be completely wiped out, and the rhythm of the war will be firmly in our grasp. Perhaps we’ll be able to reach Heaven Realm in around three to five years, don’t you think, Xie Feng?
“…Xie Feng?”
“Um…”
Xie Feng stared at his tactical screen and was in a daze.
Duan Lian was mildly surprised. Then, he looked at the monitor and saw Xie Feng watching a video that someone uploaded on the battle network just now.
In the video was someone with a pair of golden wings. He acted really ostentatiously above the lair, like some birdman with golden powder on his wings.
“Huh?” Duan Lian was dumbfounded. “Isn’t that Meng Chao? Why is he flying around the lair? Also, that golden saber on his waist looks really familiar. That’s like… what is it…? Could it be…?”
Before he could figure it out, beeping sounds cut into the internal communication channel of the alliance of the five universities.
Then, a happy voice filled with energy popped up. “Hey, everyone! I missed you so much!”
…
Wu Wu rode on her Ghost Leopard in the forest where the super monster horde was, and she was riding in the direction where Burning Island was
The branches behind her rustled. Dozens of monsters that resembled giant spiders but also looked like felines with six legs jumped out. They chased after her tightly.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
These monsters kept chasing after her and firing adhesive liquid at her.
The adhesive liquid formed really sticky spider webs in the air. If even one finger of hers was stuck in there, then she might end up dead.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The long-distance artillery from Burning Island landed in the forest, turning into a sea of fire. The shockwaves were like tornados that were mixed with a lot of branches, tree trunks, stones, and monster carcasses. They charged at her from all directions and attacked the human and monsters indiscriminately, adding a high degree of uncertainty as to who would win this shocking chase in the end.
Fortunately, Wu Wu grew up in the wild since she was young, and her instincts were just as sharp as a monster’s.
The Ghost Leopard under her was also modified by the most advanced modification technology in Agricultural University.
That was why she was able to stumble her way out of the fingers of the God of Death multiple times.
Compared to Duan Lian, Xie Feng, and the others’ mission of cleaning the battlefield and killing the undead, the mission Wu Wu received was something even more dangerous.
She was tasked to enter the forest where the super monster horde had gathered and determine the species of monsters that formed the monster horde, their level, and their ranks. Then, she had to provide cues for the aerial artillery and long-distance artillery. After that, she had to provide primitive data to the strategists at the headquarters.
Some of the monsters were sturdy, some of them were agile, some of them were stealthy, and some had mysterious mental attack prowess.
Humans had different kinds of weapons to handle different kinds of monsters…
Napalm bombs, armor-piercing shells, freezing shells, thermobaric bombs, ordnance penetrators, high-voltage nets, railguns, spirit energy cannons, and others.
Based on the different numbers of normal monsters, Nightmarish Beasts, Hell Beasts, and Hell Beasts, Burning Island’s defenders needed to choose relative measures beforehand. They must decide whether they need to ask for reinforcements from the rear and call for stronger fighters or simply decide to suffer devastating losses on their end and leave Burning Island in an orderly fashion.
In a situation where smoke, miasma, fog, and spirit energy magnetic field interference was really thick and strong, it was basically impossible for drones to enter deep into the forest to investigate the monster horde.
They could only rely on fearless recon soldiers to use their eyes to gather the most accurate data.
Of course, this was a really dangerous task, and the mortality rate was high as well. Logically speaking, they should not give this mission to normal university students.
However, Wu Wu had used the past seventy-two hours to tear apart countless monsters, and this outstanding achievement allowed her to get the chance to carry out this mission.
The reason behind why she volunteered for this mission was simple.
Compared with cleaning the battlefield and killing the undead, the rewards for observing the monster horde within close proximity were higher by ten times.
As long as she managed to retreat with all her parts intact, the points she gained would help her reach the top five or even the top three among all the students in the alliance of the five universities.
During the reward session after the battle, she could naturally get more cultivation resources.
She had no other choice.
“Meng Chao has already reached Heaven Realm, we have to work hard to catch up to him so that we can scratch his face in the future!”
Wu Wu grabbed the Ghost Leopard’s nape and said seriously.
The Ghost Leopard let out a long howl as if it understood its master, who was becoming increasingly fluent in the human language.
Then, it swung its tail, bared its teeth, and farted.
Puff!
A dark green gas that was as thick as tear gas instantly came out of the Ghost Leopard’s butt.
The monsters who were chasing after them were caught off guard. The moment they sucked in the biochemically modified and foul-smelling gas, they twitched and fell off the branches, unable to retain their balance.
Wu Wu hugged the Ghost Leopard’s neck tightly and used the chance to widen the distance between her and her pursuers.
She rode forward swiftly and soon rushed out of the forest. By then, the pursuers caught up to her.
Nearly one hundred monsters flanked her. Their formation made them look like two sharp fangs that wanted to bite down on her.
Despite the fact that there were no ambushes from long-distance attacks, Wu Wu still moved to the left and right outside the forest. She rode in a zig-zagging formation as if she was avoiding something under her feet.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Soon, the anti-monster mines she set up before she entered the forest were detonated by her pursuers. Dozens of monsters were torn to bits by the blast, and they were thrown backward.
Wu Wu increased her speed once more under the cover of the flames and shockwaves. In one breath, she rushed to the main squad who came to receive her.
She was finally able to release a sigh of relief and fell down on the ground with her Ghost Leopard. Their limbs were splayed all over them.
She raised her wrist and uploaded the large number of valuable images she had taken earlier onto the battle network.
Meanwhile, she also saw the topic all the students were talking about in the alliance of the five universities.
[Meng Chao is back!]
