Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 658

Chapter 658: The Monster Horde Attacks!

Among the students in the alliance of the five universities, the one whose fate was changed the most drastically was definitely Meng Chao’s high school best friend—Chu Feixiong.

In his previous life, Xhu Feixiong did not manage to get into military school because he was a few marks short of the admission mark. He could only start as a soldier of the lowest rank.

With his fearless personality, his sturdy body, and a little bit of luck, he managed to fight energetically for a few years on the frontlines against the monsters.

Unfortunately, his luck eventually ran out. In the end, Chu Feixiong was squashed under the foot of a Tyrant Mammoth, and together with his comrades, he turned into a cold number on a memorial.

But once Meng Chao returned to the past, taught him the future Reckless Bull Force, shared the large amount of cultivation resources he gained through the study group they opened together, and also gained extra marks through the achievement he gained during the national college examination’s practical test, Chu Feixiong was finally able to join the military school, and he was even enrolled in its strongest course—the heroic spirit course!

After entering university, Meng Chao never forgot about his best friend.

Every time he activated another future martial art, he always went immediately to Chu Feixiong to test it.

The white bear of a boy was sturdy, and he could withstand being beaten up by these future martial arts as well. After a few years, his fair and untoned body was all gone, and his fighting strength had increased by leaps and bounds.

Even though he was not as strong as Meng Chao, he could still be considered as a beast who could make others gasp in amazement.

The only regretful thing was that Chu Feixiong’s heroic spirit was a little weak.

His heroic spirit was Soldier. When he was alive, he was just a normal soldier, and he could not compare to Shao Jianqing’s Female Battle God. The only skill he had was the mediocre Army Fist.

Fortunately, Chu Feixiong was the optimistic type, and he believed that all generals started as foot soldiers.

Since his dream was to become a mighty general, then he had to take the path every general took!

At that moment, Chu Feixiong was stationed around the artillery base with the other military school students.

Their mission was to ensure that these roaring steel beasts remained safe, and they were not to let the monster horde attack the humans’ long-distance firepower.

When he heard Meng Chao’s familiar voice in the communication channel, Chu Feixiong was so excited that he jumped up and swung his arm fiercely.

Unfortunately, before he could start dancing around happily, Shao Jianqing kicked him from behind.

Amid the deafening sounds of the artillery shells, his squad leader twisted his ear and yelled, “Careful! Look up!”

Chu Feixiong looked up and saw hundreds of huge, black objects descending from the sky at lightning speed. With loud thuds, they rammed into the top of Burning Island. Their bodies were smashed like thrown watermelons, and their bodily fluids spilled everywhere. Poisonous gas also filled the area.

Those were the carcasses of hundreds of herbivorous monsters.

These herbivorous monsters were the amalgamations of rhinoceroses and elephants. They had already died for hours, and their organs had already rotted away. In fact, due to the viruses and microorganisms in them, highly dense poisonous gas accumulated in their bodies, making them swell up and turning them into natural biochemical bombs.

What was even more terrifying was that these carcasses had plenty of pests inside. The shockwave blasted all of them out of the torn carcasses, and they acted like the shrapnel from anti-monster mines. In an instant, they spread all over the top of the rock.

The caws and savage laughter of the flying-type monsters came from the sky.

When three to five large falcon-type monsters grabbed a carcass together and flew thousands of meters above the rock before unfurling their claws so that the carcass fell from the sky, they could unleash an aerial attack on the human base.

Even though the humans’ aerial artillery and anti-aircraft artillery kept firing at these monsters, they could not stop hundreds of carcass bombs from exploding, leading to Chu Feixiong, Shao Jianqing, Duan Lian, Xie Feng, and the Red Dragon Army soldiers on the artillery base to run helter-skelter.

However, before they could face the risk of being killed by acid and poison gas to get rid of all the pests who were running all over the ground while screeching after they got out of the carcass bombs, the forest not far away swayed violently, and countless towering trees snapped and fell.

The monster horde appeared!

The ones at the frontmost row were the pests who were smaller, weaker, but had terrifying reproductive powers. They were monsters with an absolute advantage in numbers.

Their mission was to use suicidal attacks to clear out the humans’ mines and figure out their firing points so that they could make the humans waste their ammunition. They were also in charge of making the high-voltage nets and electromagnetic towers run on overdrive.

Behind the pests were the sturdy monsters like the Demonic Halberd Pigs and Iron Armored Rhinoceroses. They were the main force who feared no pain and death.

Under the lead of more than one hundred Tyrant Mammoths, these monsters foamed at the mouth, and they twitched, as if they were electrocuted.

Excited flames burned into the beady, red eyes.

It was as if they were not about to step into a death trap, but a grand feast.

The Demonic Halberd Pigs, Iron Armored Rhinoceroses, and Tyrant Mammoths formed a square formation that looked like a morning star.

On their flanks were a large number of faster and more agile feline-type monsters.

Compared to the black Tyrant’s Square formation in front, these felines were spread further apart, so it was harder for artillery to cover all of them. They also had greater mobility. In fact, they could climb up from all directions of Burning Island, even up cliffs that were virtually perpendicular to the ground.

Once they reached the spot connecting Burning Island to the ground, they would become the most fatal problem, because it was impossible for the artillery’s cannons to fire ninety degrees downwards.

And there were also numerous bugs surrounding the Demonic Halberd Pigs, Iron Armored Rhinoceroses, Tyrant Mammoths, and feline-type monsters.

Since these bugs were too densely packed together, at first glance, it looked as if black fog had gathered above the monster horde. It interfered with human vision and caused humans to have a hard time figuring the exact number of monsters, their species, and direction of attack. At the same time, it served as quite the obstacle for the roaring artillery. In fact, they could cause the artillery to explode beforehand, thus absorbing more than 50% of the damage in the artillery shells.

The monster horde seemed endless when they looked at it from the front and the sides.

Aside from the Tyrant Mammoths, there were definitely even more terrifying Hell Beasts and even Apocalyptic Beasts hiding in the forest.

They were just waiting to show their most terrifying side once the cannon fodders in front were all gone.

“The monster horde is here!”

“Fire! Shoot at them! Blast them to bits!”

The deafening roars and blinding sparks from three artillery bases instantly increased by another degree.

With the minefield that covered every inch of ground around Burning Island, they blasted the pests in front to bits.

But the explosions and flames did not cause the monsters in the square formation to feel any fear. Instead, it stirred up their most primal brutality and caused them to charge at full speed.

They were like a black wave that swallowed up the sky and earth. In an instant, they arrived in front of Burning Island.

Energy and substances in the Other World were incredibly unstable.

Machines with complicated structures had more than ten times the chance of experiencing failure compared to Earth after they had been used intensely for a period of time. A longer period of time was needed to let them cooldown, and a similarly long period of time was needed to maintain them.

The roars from the three artillery bases lasted for a little over half an hour before they started becoming weaker and scattered.

The humans had long since been aware that they could not just rely on long-distance firepower to kill all the monsters under Burning Island.

Chu Feixiong, Shao Jianqing, Wu Wu, Duan Lian, Xie Feng, the youth guards from the alliance of the five universities, their tutors, the soldiers from the Red Dragon Army, the special forces from the mega corporations, and the mercenaries from various businesses all drew their weapons, clenched their fists, and loaded their guns.

The time to decide their fate had come!

…

Meng Chao and Lu Siya stood on the blimp of an armored airship.

The propellers of the armored airship were working at maximum capacity.

Violent gusts of wind struck their faces like raging waves, but they remained as still as reefs while they stared at the battlefield not far in the distance.

The area around Burning Island was like a burning sea of fire.

Countless monster carcasses released colorful and bewitching lights while flames raged.

When the light shone on the battlefield, they could clearly see the humans’ defense line and the monster horde’s vanguards clashing together.

This scene was especially prominent on the slopes that led to the top of Burning Island. Both sides occupied these slopes until nothing else could pass through, not even water. The ones in these narrow paths were engaged in the most brutal melee battles.

Whenever the monster horde pushed one meter forward, they left behind hundreds of carcasses.

These carcasses would then be blasted to bits within just a few minutes and burnt to ashes.

When they had finally pushed dozens of meters forward and occupied a slope that was relatively flat, a powerful human fighter would usually lead a suicide squad to launch a counterattack, and the monsters would then be swept down the slope that was more than one hundred meters above the ground, resulting in their bodies being broken.

Of course, the price humans had to pay was also great.

Based on what Meng Chao could see alone, more than ten powerful fighters charged too far ahead of the others and were surrounded by the monster horde. In the end, they were either completely devoured by the monster horde, or they detonated the grenades and explosives they carried with them to turn into the most brilliant fireballs.

However, this war situation was already far better than the hellish battlefield Meng Chao remembered of his previous life.

In his previous life, the human army did not have so much support from artillery and heavy machine guns, and neither did they have nearly an infinite amount of ammunition.

At that time, when they faced the fearsome monster horde, humans could only use their bodies to mend the defense line. In fact, after they ran out of ammunition, they used their teeth to rip apart the monsters, just like what the monsters did to them.

This strategy of waiting behind their steel defense line for the enemies to reach them while exhausted and defending a place with the support of endless ammunition was the most beneficial and comfortable strategy for humans, and it also had the highest exchange ratio.

With every roar of their artillery, they ripped apart dozens of monsters.

With every death of a powerful fighter, at least one hundred monsters died with them.

With every defense line they penetrated, the monsters had to leave behind more than one thousand bodies, but the construction machines of humans just had to work faster on the top of the rocks to build the second, the third, and dozens of tightly packed defense lines.

The monster horde might appear endless, but they did not pop out of thin air and had an unlimited number of soldiers.

Meng Chao and Lu Siya watched from above, and they could see that the rear of the monster horde was beginning to become sparse. They began to show signs that they were running out of manpower.
