Chapter Twenty-Three: The Red Turtle
At 5:30 in the morning, a ray of sunshine penetrated into Zhenhai County.
Among the ruins of reinforced concrete, there is no one who is inhabited, and occasionally monsters roam in it.
Not a single car was parked on the street, not even a motorbike was nowhere to be seen. Presumably their owners drove away while fleeing.
Reinforced concrete buildings can't be taken away. The hard work of these ordinary people all their lives has now become a lair of monsters.
It's hard to imagine that not long ago, this county town was still full of lights and flowers.
Jia Yi retracted his gaze and sighed:
"It won't be long before most cities become like this."
Xu Qinxue, Wang Hao, and Chen Zibi showed disapproving expressions. εΎζ²ιͺ says:
"Boss, don't be so pessimistic. It just so happens that there is a nuclear power plant here, and under the influence of nuclear radiation, such a strong monster can be mutated. But most cities do not have nuclear power plants.
"It's just about to give up the coastal city, and that's just because there are so many sea monsters that we can't clean up. But on land, we still have an absolute advantage, not to mention, we still have nuclear weapons! β
Jia Yi glanced at Xu Qinxue deeply and said:
"I guess that's what you think. But you have to be clear that nuclear radiation only accelerates the evolution of monsters, and even without nuclear radiation, sooner or later such an existence as the Red Armor Dragon Turtle will evolve among monsters. This can be seen from Hong, the strongest man in our human race. Hong must not have been exposed to nuclear radiation, since Hong can rely on his own cultivation to the God of War level, why do you think that monsters can't do it? What's more, the God of War level and the lord level are obviously not the end.
"In addition, we have nuclear weapons, but do we dare to use them lightly? Have you ever thought about how many lord-level monsters will be born from the nuclear radiation produced by nuclear weapons? The use of nuclear weapons is just a matter of quenching thirst. β
Xu Qinxue, Wang Hao, and Chen Zibi glanced at each other, but they couldn't say anything to refute. They knew that the boss had been advocating the establishment of some giant steel cities as soon as possible to gather the people of the whole country, so that they could concentrate their forces on defense. But apparently, such a proposal was not accepted by the above. The above also criticized Jia Yi for not having enough political awareness.
Jia Yi seemed to know what the three of them were thinking, and explained:
"I know that it is impossible for either the people or the people to accept my proposal at this stage, but in a few more years, when the monster crisis spreads across the country, the people and the people will gradually change their minds. All I can do is to improve my strength and status in the army as much as possible before that moment comes, so as to ensure that I have enough say at that moment!
"Okay, that's all off-topic. Our priority now is to kill the Red Turtle and bring back its corpse. We've rested for half a day and we're ready to go! β
The five of them got up in unison and walked out of the hotel.
In a short time, the streets were filled with the roar and wailing of monsters.
The Huashan team slowly moved forward in the same way as yesterday.
......
The other side of the earthquake sea nuclear power plant.
The one-middle-aged man put down the telescope in his hand and said excitedly:
"President Yan Hai, they moved, they finally moved!"
The vulture Li Yao snatched the binoculars, looked in the direction of the Blue Sky Hotel, and then spat to the side, and scolded with a smile:
"Damn, these bunnies have kept me waiting for so long. I'll have their good fruit to eat later! β
Yan Hai pressed his hands weakly, as if to calm the excited emotions of the players:
"Don't be so frizzy, how do I usually teach you? Be calm! They are still 5 kilometers away from their destination, and it will take at least half a day to advance past them in the way they did yesterday. I reckon they'll definitely have to take a break to regain their strength before they officially engage in the battle with the Red Turtle.
"I judged that they should stop for a half-day rest about 1 km from the nuclear power plant. In other words, this time tomorrow is the time for them to fight the Red Armor Dragon Turtle. Wait another day! β
After speaking, Yan Hai no longer paid attention to his subordinates, closed his eyes by himself, sat down cross-legged, and formed a posture of five hearts facing the sky, and actually cultivated here.
......
A day later, at 5:30 a.m.
The Huashan team walked out of a dilapidated low house, and they were still about 1 kilometer away from the nuclear power plant.
After resting here for half a day, I have refreshed my spirits. They are ready to kill the nuclear power plant in one go, kill the red dragon turtle, and complete this mission!
Chen Rui checked his allocable attribute points, 69.70 points, compared to the previous 58.90 points, this half-day killing only gained 10.80 attribute points, compared to the first half day, the number of new additions is obviously much less. But these attribute points are enough to raise yourself to the level of a high-level general. If something unexpected happens for a while, he quickly converts his allocable attribute points into combat power.
εΎζ²ιͺ says:
"According to my previous observations from high places, there are almost no monsters within 1 kilometer of the nuclear power plant. The nuclear power plant is inhabited by many turtle monsters. There are more than 50 beast-level monsters, 2 junior beasts, 2 intermediate beasts, 1 high-level beast, and then the junior lord-level monster Red Armor Dragon Turtle! β
Jia Yi pondered for a moment and replied:
"I think it's all divided into their own territory within 1 kilometer, and other monsters are not allowed to approach. That's fine, and we don't need to exert physical strength for the last 1 kilometer.
"Old Five, you are a spiritual master, and you are highly efficient in sweeping low-level monsters. More than 50 beast-level monsters and 2 junior beasts will be handed over to you, is there a problem. β
Chen Rui nodded in agreement. With his current cultivation, killing 1 beast-level monster is an instantaneous effort, and 2 junior beast generals only take more than ten seconds.
"Qin Xue and Zibi, you are each responsible for an intermediate beast general. Wang Hao, you are in charge of that high-level beast general. As for the red dragon turtle, leave it to me! β
Jia Yi glanced around everyone, and saw that everyone had no opinion, so he waved his right hand:
"Let's go!"
Five figures scurried through the ruins and soon entered the nuclear power plant.
Shout! Shout! Shout! Shout!
Four black lights burst out from Chen Rui's backpack, which were the four Xuantie Mother fragments.
In a flash of coldness, the four beast-level monsters were killed in an instant.
The monsters around saw that something was abnormal here, and they all looked over.
The six-story building, more than 40 meters long, slowly opened its eyes, and five small figures came into its eyes.
Mankind!?
There are still humans who dare to come here to disturb its dreams!
Its thoughts were swirling......
More than a decade ago, it was the habitat of their species, but the hateful humans invaded their territory for no apparent reason and erected reinforced concrete structures on the site.
From time to time, some wastewater is discharged into the nearby waters. After his own people accidentally drank the water contaminated by wastewater, they developed strange-shaped tumors on their bodies and died in pain.
As its leader, it was forced to lead its people to migrate elsewhere. Never thought I'd be back one day.
But a month ago, it appeared to be infected with some kind of virus, and after seven days of painful struggle, it gradually recovered. Later, it found itself in a body that was unmatched before.
So, it sneaked back to the place, thinking about reclaiming the territory.
When it came back, it found that the polluted wastewater could further promote its mutation and enhance its physique, so it lurked.
It wasn't until half a month ago that it successfully broke through to the lord level, and it immediately launched an attack on the nuclear power plant and the entire Zhenhai County after realizing that its strength had increased greatly. Drove the hateful humans out of their habitat.
And now, just over half a month later, these hateful humans have actually returned and killed four of their compatriots!
"Roarβ" A terrifying beast roar resounded through the sky. It opened its bloody jaw, revealing blood-red fangs, sharp claws poking out of its limbs.
It wants to tear these five tiny humans apart and dig out their entrails to relieve the hatred in their hearts.
Not only that, but tomorrow it will kill Zhenhai County to hunt down more hateful humans!
