Chapter 488: Fight! The Real Monster Civilization!
Hidden in a col surrounded by dense trees more than forty kilometers to the east of Dragon City was a wolframite mine. Among all the mines Dragon Citizens had discovered, it had the highest number of ores, and they were of the highest quality.
Wolframite alloy was an important raw material necessary to create armor-piercing sh.e.l.ls.
And in an environment where sophisticated electronic equipment suffered from high failure rate and there were no satellite networks beyond the ozone layer to provide navigation, armor-piercing sh.e.l.ls became the most important spear of humanity’s steel army. It could even be said to be their only spear.
In the past, due to a lack of large quant.i.ties of wolframite ore, the humans were not able to produce a lot of armor-piercing sh.e.l.ls.
In the face of the fierce monster hordes, they either had to use normal bullets to launch attacks that would not harm them or use incredibly valuable super-alloy to create cold weapons and use their blood and courage to make up for the lack of ammunition.
The super large wolframite mine could turn things completely around and allow the steel army to show it’s true might.
Hence, even though the path between the mine and Dragon City was filled with uneven and winding mountain paths, which made it incredibly difficult for Dragon Citizens to send supplies, they still insisted on investing a lot of resources to set up a modern base that was a combination of a mining site, smelting site, and production plant.
At that moment, the lonesome base faced its greatest challenge.
In the beginning, only one Demonic Halberd Pig had calmly walked out of the fog and stood on a rock with its wide, red-rimmed eyes while staring at the human base.
Then, the ground trembled. The fog was torn apart, and squirming shadows crawled out of the cracks underground like dark clouds. They gathered together to form a black wave that swept toward the lonesome human industrial base.
Demonic Halberd Pigs, Iron-armored Rhinoceroses, Unihorn Raging Fangs... All sorts of monsters with the greatest charging power formed cavalry units, and as they thundered against the ground, they became faster and faster. They formed an arrow that could break any armor.
Behind the cavalry were demonic shadows that were as big as mountains.
They were five Tyrant Mammoths. They activated Rampaging War Song at the same time, and their bloodthirsty spirit energy magnetic waves overlapped with each other before descending on the monsters’ heads, which turned the normal monsters like Demonic Halberd Pigs into killing machines that brought fear to people.
BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG!
The automatic battle fortresses around the human base released burning flames.
Hundreds of fire pillars shot forward like burning, spike-covered whips. They surrounded and tore through the dozens of Demonic Halberd Pigs at the frontmost row.
The remaining monsters became even more frenzied and bold. The monster horde used numbers to overrun the battle fortresses.
Among deafening explosions, dozens of battle fortresses turned into terrifying fireb.a.l.l.s.
They could do nothing to defend the base, so the people in the base chose to activate the self-destruct system from a remote distance, so the impact waves and flames that were thousands of degrees Celsius would cover the death zone in corpses and blood.
But that only won them a few minutes of time.
Soon, the Red Dragon Army soldiers and superhumans stationed in the industrial base were forced to c.o.c.k their guns, draw their weapons, activate their spirit energy, burn their wills, and face the monsters’ fangs and howls!
The swamp area more than fifty kilometers away to the south of Dragon City was filled with jungles and miasma, so humans had never focused their attention on conquering the place.
But half a year ago, an exploration team accidentally discovered a large Brilliant Light Stone mine, and soon, a few mega corporations invested in the place.
Brilliant Light Stones were not crystals suited for cultivation, but they could release powerful electricity at a steady pace.
Dragon City had always faced a shortage of electricity. Otherwise, it would not have stuck solar panels all over the walls of the buildings in the city.
Even so, it still experienced power outages once every few days.
It was not a major problem if the residential apartments suffered from power outages, but if they were invaded during a power outage, the railguns, high voltage grids, and super high-power searchlights would be rendered useless and spell everyone’s death.
And in the major development Dragon City planned for the next five years, it wanted to expand the city area by at least twice the city’s original size.
It also wanted to build more than ten brand new heavy industrial bases.
The deficit in electricity reached a stunning figure, and it became the most fatal problem that limited the development of Dragon City.
The Brilliant Light Stone could effectively solve the problem of Dragon City’s electricity deficiency.
It, then, became a tactical stronghold that they had to defend at all costs.
But now, countless rats, venomous snakes, and lizards crawled out of the swamps and jungles next to the Brilliant Light Stone mine.
As the saying went, evil lurked together.
An endless rat horde and a group of snakes from the swamp stretched out like a rolling carpet. They intersected and squirmed, hissed, as well as slithered forward, becoming the worst nightmare for the defenders.
The rat horde and snake horde came in waves.
There were a few herbivorous monsters in their paths, but before they could flee, they were drowned out by the monster horde. In an instant, they were reduced to skeletons.
This scene caused the defenders to feel chills down their spines.
They could only use their fastest speed to throw all their napalm bombs at the enemy.
The bombs were filled with napalm, which should have made it the best weapon to handle pests.
But the rats and snakes before them seemed to have gone through special modifications. Their life force was far stronger than that of normal rat-type monsters and snake-type monsters.
Their pelts and scales might have begun to burn, but they did not slow down.
From a black monster horde, they turned into magma that flowed everywhere. Soon, like cannonb.a.l.l.s tearing down walls, they rushed into the human base.
In the west of Dragon City was a water source with an abundant supply of water. It also had an environment that was blessed by nature, so nearly one hundred types of etherealized plants could be planted there.
If it were to be developed into a large plantation, then all of Dragon Citizens would be able to eat green foods filled with spirit energy.
It would give immeasurable benefits to the growth of teenagers and young adults and increase their chances of awakening to supernatural abilities.
At that moment, a large swarm of insects swept through the crops humans had planted through much effort. They ate all the shoots that the botanists had spent long hours cultivating in the labs until there was nothing left.
The etherealized botanists rushed out of the defense circle with aching hearts and tried their hardest to s.n.a.t.c.h the shoots back, but they were surrounded by the insect swarm. They were captured and swept up into the air. When they landed on the ground again, they had already been reduced to b.l.o.o.d.y skeletons.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
The humans’ anti-air machine guns fired nonstop.
Almost one thousand raging lines of fire shot forward and nearly tore the sky into shreds.
But using machine gun bullets to fight insect-type monsters dancing in the air was literally using anti-air machine guns to hit mosquitoes.
It did not mean that there were no results. The insects who were torn to shreds and fell down soon piled up into mountains.
But no matter how many insect-type monsters died, the number and density of the insect swarm did not seem to lessen.
Shattered Starlake was in the north of Dragon City.
It was a new area that Dragon City had started developing first. It also had the largest amount of investments and the most tactical significance.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that Dragon Citizens staked their future on this new city area.
At that moment, the people who had been working hard planting and constructing in Shattered Starlake might not have seen the monsters directly, but they had already heard the roars that ripped through the skies.
They came from the most terrifying king of Monster Mountain Range, the tyrant of all Apocalypse Beasts—the Crystalline Nine-headed Dragon!
The skies above Raging Waves had been silent for an entire year, but now, red clouds that looked like they were bleeding slowly spun around and turned into burning waves.
They then s.h.i.+fted into a whirlpool. It spun faster with each pa.s.sing moment, as if it had turned into a dimensional tunnel that led straight to the bottom of h.e.l.l.
The Crystalline Nine-headed Dragon walked down the path of revenge and stepped out of h.e.l.l to descend from the skies!
Meng Chao and the veteran hunters who were carrying out the mission in the lair watched everything silently.
The venom from the monsters burned their retinas, causing their eyes to turn bloodshot. They were all veterans who had been fighting for most of their lives in the wild.
But aside from Meng Chao, who had seen devastating scenes that looked like they came straight from h.e.l.l, none of them had ever seen something like this.
And it was not the end.
When the monster hordes launched their attacks from all sides, the three large residential areas with many citizens had zombies and the undead appear among them.
Even though there were not many of them, the city had to mobilize a large amount of manpower and resources and work with extreme caution when handling the situation. Otherwise, they could trigger a chain reaction as swift as an avalanche. If the number of zombies and the undead reached the thousands, it would be as difficult as nailing jelly to a tree to control it.
“How could this happen?”Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong was a little dumbfounded, even though he had been fighting against monsters his entire life. “The monster hordes are so large, and there are so many Apocalyptic Beasts taking action at the same time. It’s like they’re acting like humans and are launching a pitched battle.”
“That’s the difference between monsters and the monster civilization.”
Meng Chao sighed.
The monster civilization had finally completed its metamorphosis and become one of the most terrifying enemies Dragon City had faced in his previous life.
Even if a single monster had superior intelligence, due to the limitations of its habitat, it would never understand strategies, tactics, alliances, and social structures.
The Apocalyptic Beasts might be powerful, but they did not have clear goals when they attacked Dragon City. Usually, they only attacked when they were provoked or sought revenge. Or they were just venting their abundant killing intent.
This sort of Apocalyptic Beast could easily be dealt with by five or more Deity Realm superhumans waiting for it patiently. They would gather their strengths together and attack it. Even if it had the power to bring an apocalypse, it would still die with hatred in its mind.
But now, the monsters had their own civilization. They might even have ranks and social structures as well. Even if their individual strengths had not changed compared to the past and they had also lost a lot of habitats filled with spirit energy, so their fighting strength dropped a little, the moment they learned how to fight together, it was enough to put humans in a terrible fix. They could not attend to everything.
Besides, Meng Chao believed that the monster civilization’s strategy was definitely not just limited to attacking from all sides. It also wanted to attack the center by blowing up Dragon City’s toilet —Golden Tooth Lair!
When this thought came to him, Meng Chao began speaking like a machine gun. “Vice Director Nie, the monster civilization chose to attack now, of all times, when Dragon City has just gone through many robberies and when the Deification Capsules appeared. This is definitely not a coincidence!
“Trust me, the lair is definitely the most important segment of the monster civilization’s plan. I have great suspicions that the offense the monsters launched at the perimeter isn’t as fierce as it seems. At the very least, some of the offenses are just an empty show of strength!
“Golden Tooth Lair is one of the areas the monster civilization truly wants to hit!”
