Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies
Chapter 1341: Demon People
"To think there are living creatures that can survive within this Sea of Blood filled with corpse poison!"
The superhuman who controlled poison exclaimed in astonishment, seemingly unable to believe what he was seeing.
Everyone acted in unison, desperately cutting down these insects.
Now that they knew their true nature, dealing with them became much easier.
Even though there were many insects, the joint forces of the Southwest Region had numerous experts, and they quickly killed a large number of the poisonous bugs.
Fatty Xu aimed his chubby hands at the surface of the Sea of Blood and activated his [Blizzard] ability, instantly freezing the area for several miles around.
Wherever there was liquid, his ability was always quite effective.
Even the Sea of Blood was primarily composed of water, and soon the surrounding blood sea was frozen into a solid sheet of ice.
The ships were immobilized, and the superhumans could also step onto the ice to fight.
Instead, it was the corpses and insects that began to have difficulty moving.
Old You, holding a gun, started firing bullets as if they were free, wielding a Gatling gun as easily as an ordinary person would handle a light machine gun.
Corpses and insects were blasted into pieces in large swathes by him.
"Haha, the methods these Demon Kingdom people use to deal with us are too crude!"
Old You laughed heartily.
Zhang Yi rested his blade on his shoulder; there was no need for him to personally go out and slash at a time like this.
"No, in the past, this was a powerful means used to obstruct people from our world."
"They raised insects inside corpses and then reared them within the Sea of Blood. The insects survive on the corpses and the blood sea, automatically attacking when they encounter living creatures."
"If not for encountering us, even an ordinary army coming here would suffer disaster."
It wasn't that these insects weren't strong enough, but rather that the strength of their unit was too formidable.
Just the number of Epsilon-level superhumans alone was several.
The sounds of gunfire and artillery continued over the Sea of Blood. Soon, chunks of the corpse insects were scattered all over the blood sea, the densely packed minced flesh quite disgusting.
But within the Sea of Blood, such corpses were still continuously emerging.
Deji shouted loudly, "No need to keep dealing with them! This is the Demon Kingdom people's method of burying corpses. Accumulated over a thousand years, who knows how many corpses are here. Unless you evaporate the entire Sea of Blood, you'll never finish killing them all."
"Let's leave quickly! Don't waste time here."
Hearing this, everyone agreed and chose to fight while retreating.
The surrounding sea area had already been frozen by Fatty Xu, but this was hardly a problem.
Chodak transformed into the Fierce-Eyed Vajra, leaped to the front of the formation, and with just one punch, the immense force directly smashed the thick ice sheet to pieces!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
Chodak used his own fists to directly smash open an ice channel.
The fleet then took advantage of the situation to leave this part of the blood sea, speeding rapidly forward.
Those corpses relentlessly pursued, lying flat on the surface of the blood sea, spinning as they chased at high speed.
Although they didn't cause much damage to the Allied Forces, they were exceptionally creepy.
The Allied Forces felt their scalps crawl and had no desire to tangle with such monsters any longer than necessary, only able to speed rapidly towards the opposite shore.
"Splash—"
Bloody water slapped against the hulls. Suddenly, the ship at the very front of the formation lurched violently, then, as if struck by some enormous force, was directly flipped over!
"Ahh!!"
A scream rang out. From the Sea of Blood, a gigantic hand stretched out, directly crushing a soldier's body until it twisted and deformed, like a person pressing down on a water-soaked sponge. A large amount of blood and filth gushed out and flowed down.
Liang Yue didn't hesitate for a moment, darting forward. A flash of brilliant, snow-bright blade light streaked through the air.
When the Long Sword struck that massive arm, it made a sound like striking metal. The arm was directly severed, revealing a clean, flat cut.
From the Sea of Blood, a huge head slowly emerged.
The head was twice the size of an ordinary person's, hairless, with a demonic eye carved on its forehead.
He slowly emerged from the Sea of Blood, his body actually reaching over four meters tall!
"A person from the Demon Kingdom! He's a person from the Demon Kingdom!"
Seeing a living Demonic Person for the first time, many followers of the esoteric sect immediately shouted excitedly.
They chanted Buddhist mantras, encouraging themselves not to fear this monster.
But soon, greater terror appeared.
After that bizarre Demonic Person appeared, behind him, the Sea of Blood churned, and one after another, eerie figures rose from the blood sea.
This four-meter-plus Demonic Person was actually of relatively average size. Behind him stood Demonic People five or six meters tall, and even giants nearly ten meters tall slowly straightened their bodies.
Their eyes held no emotion, fixedly staring at the foreign Allied Forces here, standing before the fleet like small mountains.
Zhang Yi finally understood why that massive door had to be built so enormous.
Because the subjects of the Demon Kingdom were much larger in size than ordinary humans!
"This... these aren't humans, are they?"
Zhou Ke'er's voice came through the communication channel. Although they were inside the Shadow Space, they weren't slacking off. Each person had their own duties, waiting for their moment to play a role.
The instant they saw those Demonic People, Zhou Ke'er and Yang Xinxin began flipping through historical materials to investigate.
"The subjects of the Demon Kingdom were indeed much larger than ordinary people. Historical records from the pre-Qin period mention a guerrilla general who campaigned against the Quanrong and hunted a giant five meters tall."
"I believe they are indeed human, just mutated. Also, these corpses have been soaking in the Sea of Blood for a long time; it's normal for their bodies to enlarge, making them look even more terrifying."
In ancient times of the Huaxu Kingdom, there were many extraordinary people and strange occurrences: those born with double pupils, those with arms longer than their knees, and even people with ribs fused into a single row.
In ancient times, these were considered signs of an extraordinary person, destined for great achievements.
Perhaps these people were early-stage awakeners, which is why they could attain achievements others could hardly reach.
"Amitabha! Followers of the Buddha, purify these sinful Demonic People!"
Deji stood at the bow of the ship and said coldly.
"Kill!!!"
Roars of fury echoed over the Sea of Blood.
They had come precisely to conquer the Demon Kingdom. Now that the enemy was before them, of course they would not shrink from battle.
To die defending their faith meant they could enter the Western Pure Land after death. Therefore, everyone charged forward fearlessly, engaging these giants in combat.
As for the Lord of the Charnel Ground, Zhang Yi, and the others, they did not intervene much.
Although these terrifying Demonic People looked frightening, none possessed Epsilon-level power.
If the Demon Kingdom was truly similar to the underground of the Qinling Mountains, it must certainly harbor Epsilon-level powerhouses.
They needed to conserve their strength, waiting for the critical moment to act.
On the Pagyi Family's side, it was still Fatty Xu who acted first, freezing the Sea of Blood.
Otherwise, most soldiers lacked the ability to fight in seawater.
Chodak commanded his soldiers, launching coordinated and orderly assaults against the Demonic People.
And among these people, Liang Yue's performance was the most dazzling.
"Boom!!"
A Demonic Person seven or eight meters tall swung its long arm like a whip, smashing down fiercely towards the soldiers before it!
Several soldiers' expressions changed as they narrowly dodged. The ice beneath them shattered rapidly, crimson ice fragments flying everywhere.
The strength of these Demonic People was too immense. Even wearing combat suits, ordinary people could hardly withstand their power.
But upon closer observation, these Demonic People only had enormous size; they didn't possess special abilities.
So this was the moment for Liang Yue to shine.
In close-quarters combat, she ranked among the best in the entire Allied Forces. Excluding the few Epsilons, probably no one was her match.
She ran swiftly across the ice surface, the ice shattering beneath her feet. A whirlwind swept past as she soared into the air.
A giant turned its head to look, only to be met by Liang Yue's blade light.
Blue [Qi] coiled around Liang Yue's body. As the Long Sword swung out, it directly sliced half the giant's head off from the middle!
