I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 900 - 591: The Battle Officially Begins!
Chapter 900: Chapter 591: The Battle Officially Begins!
Xini City, most of the civilians are hiding in underground sanctuaries.
The moment the Safe Zone was opened, several modified versions of F3.5 took off from the airport, launching into supersonic cruise, speeding away in several directions!
Engraved on the fuselage and wings are floating images, effectively reducing air resistance and fuel consumption.
After some experts’ improvements, the cabin is filled with reserve fuel to accommodate longer flights.
Five years of time, all of humanity united, has developed some supernatural sciences.
The leader of Xini City loudly announced on television: "As long as we defeat the [Demon], we can seek refuge in other cities."
Xini City’s willingness to be the first to open the Safe Zone is indeed quite remarkable!
It’s not that they are particularly brave, but the residents are actually in a sort of information cocoon.
They believe other cities are opening simultaneously, not realizing they are actually guinea pigs.
...
A miracle happened!
[Frost Mist Demon] still floats near Lingbo City, having no reaction to Xini City several tens of thousands of kilometers away!
"Great! Its perception ability is indeed limited!"
"As long as the distance is far enough, it cannot detect." This fact greatly invigorated numerous cities, bringing them courage.
...
Several hours later, Dongjin City’s Safe Zone also opened—slightly later than expected.
Those people with a hint of numbness on their faces saw the first glimpse of sunlight from the Pangu Continent.
Just like plants exposed to the long-lost sun, slowly revitalizing.
This city, without the Extraordinary Spark, had endured two major plagues, seeming to have an air of decay and desolation.
The Emperor is delivering an important speech: "As long as we contact other cities, we can immediately obtain the Extraordinary Spark and gain a longer lifespan."
"I announce, combat jets at maximum speed, to obtain the Spark from other cities."
"I announce the Super Fortress, set sail! To conquer [Frost Mist Demon]."
An artifact like a moving steel mountain slowly rose from the ground, giving off an overwhelming presence.
This massive fortress weighs 220,000 tons, with an overall contour that is angular and hard-lined yet has smooth curves, constructed with the combined power of Dongjin City’s ten million people.
At the top of the Super Fortress, an energy core stands, emanating a faint blue light, resembling a beating heart.
It is the main power source of the Super Fortress, the Eight-foot Jade Hook, a Superior Level Extraordinary Artifact, functioning to make "metal matter" float.
Therefore, the Super Fortress’s mobility is far stronger than those concrete blocks.
The Super Fortress is armed with weapons and ammunition, slowly heading into the distance.
...
"Report! Dongjin City claims they have opened the Safe Zone, the Super Fortress is flying!"
"[Frost Mist Demon] still hasn’t made any move. Great!"
"Report, Yunhai City has also opened the Safe Zone..."
Pieces of news from various cities were conveyed to the government office of Lingbo City.
No matter how calm a person, at this moment, their mood is tense, blood pressure soaring, even their breath halted.
Perhaps due to the "control" ability, many government higher-ups are under control.
Or perhaps, the opportunity truly only comes once.
Most cities are relatively on time...
"What about Old Delhi? What’s going on!!"
"Still no news... Maybe they’re still organizing manpower for voting!"
"Wait, there’s news! Their radiant airplane caught fire, might take a long time until evening..."
"What?!" Digdit’s face sank slightly.
Without the Anti-Cold Rune, the use of various thermal weapons may suffer a discount.
He snorted coldly: "I knew these guys wouldn’t be reliable!"
"But it doesn’t matter, we never counted on them! Each city has its own preparations."
Just then, bad news arrived again.
[Frost Mist Demon] finally reacted to the various cities!
The massive dark clouds slowly ascended in height, continuously climbing to an altitude of 100,000 meters.
Pairs of vaguely visible grim eyes emit forbidden murmurs.
It seems to be gazing into the distance.
"Not good, it sensed something."
The atmosphere in the central conference room became murderous; if it runs to other cities and devours humans, all plans will fail.
Everyone faces a historical fork in the road.
One path... leads to a deep abyss.
The other path... leads to the depths of Hell.
No one knows what choice to make!
In the midst of silence, Digdit patted the table and shouted loudly: "Everyone, our ultimate goal is to ’control’ the anomaly, not rely on the support of fellow humans."
"Once it runs to other cities, ’control’ will be much harder to succeed."
"In the past five years, devising various detailed combat plans was merely to give other cities enough motivation to open the Safe Zone!"
"The population of other cities, all to be paid as the price for battle victory."
As long as this anomaly can be controlled, even sacrificing all the population of other cities is worth it!
His face became solemn: "No time left to wait, call for a citizen vote."
"All combat units hide in bunkers, prepare for battle!"
"Yes!" All the officers saluted in unison.
...
In the major sanctuaries, Digdit’s figure appears on the big screen: "We must open the Safe Zone earlier, or this monster will transfer into other cities."
