Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong was silent.

“Also, Senior Zhou, don’t you think that this place is too quiet?” Meng Chao continued. “I know that the gangs in the lair want to create an atmosphere of calmness to confuse the mastermind, but this seemingly clever move is actually stupid.

“Right now, Dragon City is at war at the perimeter. The news must have spread to the lair, and the mastermind definitely knows the time when the monster civilization will launch their attack.

“In other words, the mastermind knows very well that the people in the lair should be very restless right now, so it should only make sense if it’s chaos. The peace and quiet before our eyes actually doesn’t make sense!

“With the cunning and wariness of the mastermind, when he smells danger, he should immediately move away. But why does it seem like there is no movement within Leprosy Village?

“They didn’t even examine the raw materials in the package with the locating chip and just took it into Leprosy Village.

“Something is off here. Trust me, Senior Zhou, we’ve been too hasty. Think about it. There are too many loopholes. If I were the mastermind, I’d hide a remotely-controlled camera in the room Big Brother Knife hid or plant a chip that could monitor his physiological parameters in his body. That way, I would immediately know if he were captured.”

Zhou Chong stared at Meng Chao. “Are you suspecting that there is a trap in Leprosy Village?”

“I’m not suspecting it. I know it for certain,” Meng Chao said. “The mastermind might be the most terrifying and cunning enemy we’ve ever faced. There is definitely a trap in Leprosy Village!”

“I agree with your thoughts. I believe that the command center agrees with your thoughts as well.” Zhou Chong first nodded before he changed his tone and slammed his fist against his palm. “But even if it’s a trap, so what? We have gathered a total of thirty-three Heaven Realm superhumans on our side. We’re an absolute force that can’t be stopped!

“Of course the enemy has set up a trap. But even if it’s a tiger’s den, we’re forced into this corner, we have to go in and take a risk!”

Zhou Chong’s determination affected Meng Chao.

He thought about it carefully and found that it made sense.

The thirty-three Heaven Realm superhumans were all hunters and martial artists who had fought in multiple battles. No matter where they were, they were a grand lineup that could destroy everything with ease.

Even if it was a trap, it was fine. They just needed to level it to the ground.

It has to be known that in his previous life, before Golden Tooth Lair was destroyed by fire, countless powerful superhumans died during the northern offense because the Red Radiance Jade mine exploded and Raging Waves was destroyed, so there was a shortage of superhumans, and Dragon City suffered a huge blow to its foundation.

Man-eating Shark Zhou Chong and the other veteran hunters had all joined the northern offense.

If Meng Chao had not turned the tides, they would have all died under the rampaging force of the Red Radiance Jade spirit energy tsunami.

And even if they did not die, their spirit meridians would have been destroyed by the spirit energy tsunami, and they would be cripples.

It would then have been impossible for them to join the search and hunt in Golden Tooth Lair.

In other words, in his previous life, the abnormal beast research department and secret police might have noticed the problem with the Deification Capsules and found that they came from the depths of Golden Tooth Lair based on the clues.

But the number of forces the abnormal beast research department and the secret police could mobilize were far weaker than the hunting squad in front of him.

Even if they knew that danger was ahead, they had to take the risk. Even if it was a sea of fire or a mountain of blades in front of them, they could only walk forward bravely!

At that moment, the command center sent the newest war report from the frontlines.

They saw humans and monsters engaged in fierce fights at dozens of tactical strongholds and important places blessed with an abundant amount of resources at the perimeter of Dragon City.

There was smoke, flames, and sand as well as stones flying all over the place.

Huge, rampaging monsters with hideous expressions rushed out of the flames and fog. While enduring the strong firepower aimed at them, they uprooted the semi-underground fighting fortresses and threw the armored fighting vehicles high into the air. They trampled on them like they were matchboxes.

Nightmarish Beasts! Hell Beasts! Apocalyptic Beasts!

Waves of monsters attacked as if there was no end to them. They were indeed the nightmares, hell, and apocalypse to humans!

But even if they were in the midst of a nightmare, hell, and the apocalypse, humans had a way to fight back.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

After a series of long howls and deafening explosions, red lotuses filled the ground and the air. They covered the whole battlefield.

Each destructive red lotus spread beyond one hundred meters and turned all the monsters within their killing range into fireballs, charcoal, and ashes.

There were rampaging monsters with shells that could compare to super alloy and were as tall as eight storeys. Not even anti-monster artillery from the main battle tanks could do anything to them, so they had been flaunting their prowess, but the next instant, half of their bodies were gone. They fell to the ground like mountains of flesh.

This was the baptism of bullets that came from the heavy artillery base of the Red Dragon Army, which was located south of Red Dragon River.

No carbon-based life form could endure a round of focused firepower from railway guns with 0.8 caliber special crystal bullets.

If there was, then they would just fire one more round.

Of course, every time the super railway gun fired a round of bullets, it was a vicious blow to the precarious financial budget of Dragon City.

Monsters were actually valuable resources.

The value of one Apocalyptic Beast was not that much lower than of a whole crystal mine.

If a Deity Realm superhuman used the most accurate and simple method to kill an Apocalyptic Beast, the harvesters could usually harvest more than 90% of its resources.

But if the downpour of bullets from the super railway guns turned the Apocalyptic Beasts and Hell Beasts into tatters, unless they sent veteran harvesters like Meng Chao and Ning Shewo, the harvesters would only be able to get at most 10% of the resources.

However, in the face of monster hordes coming at them in waves, the humans had no other choice.

The battle instantly reached its climax.

Quite a number of Red Dragon Army and low-grade superhumans had slaughtered into a frenzy while surrounded by the monster hordes and chose the brave act of hugging crystal bombs and jumping into monster hordes to die together with them.

With strong firepower and unbending wills, the two sides fought fiercely against each other, and the monster civilization, which seemed to have been attacking from all fronts, soon revealed that it didn’t have enough firepower for such an assault.

Quite a number of monster hordes gradually turned scarce and advanced slowly once their cannon fodder was all depleted. While the first wave had come at the bases with fierceness, it was made up of normal monsters.

Clearly, the monster civilization did not have the power to launch true offense from all directions. Most of the offenses were just feints.

Nie Chenglong told Meng Chao and the hunting squad, “Since the monsters chose to die, we’re spared the trouble of looking for their nests all over the place.

“Right now, the Red Dragon Army and Supernatural Tower have decided to rely on the current defense lines and the heavy artillery bases in Jiangnan Major District to engage in a positional warfare against the monster civilization. We’ll use automatic fighting fortresses, drones, and remotely controlled self-thinking vehicles to deplete the monsters’ firepower.

“Once we figure out the main offensive directions and get rid of their might, our army will go after the monster hordes and get rid of them completely!

“At the same time, our Deity Realm superhumans are proactively searching for and locating the Apocalyptic Beasts among the enemies. They want to use numbers against them and work together with the super railway guns to deal the greatest damage.

“You must understand, ever since Shattered Starlake and Raging Waves became our home, monsters have been suffering defeats for more than a year on all frontlines. They appear to be staking everything on this invasion and are delivering a counterattack before their deaths.

“As long as we can endure this and even kill three or more Apocalyptic Beasts, the monsters will lose their ability to fight in the field against us. We’ll have absolute tactical initiative!

“At that time, the entire Monster Mountain Range will belong to the humans. The remaining monsters will have to stay curled up in the nests while enduring hunger and shiver alone!

“Hence, the most important battlefield right now is the perimeter around Dragon City. The Supernatural Tower, Red Dragon Army, Survival Committee, four great research centers, the nine great mega corporations and even the abnormal beast research department and secret police have poured most of their resources and strength into the final battle between Deity Realm superhumans and Apocalyptic Beasts.

“Captain Zhou, I’m going to represent the frontlines and ask you once: Can you stabilize the situation on your side?”

Zhou Chong gritted his teeth. “Yes! With us around, we won’t let a single Deification Capsule flow out of the lair and create chaos!”

The communication with the command center ended.

The locating and scanning chip sent into Leprosy Village had explored more than 50% of the area and created a general outline of the main streets and buildings deep in Leprosy Village.

Soon, the chip was definitely going to be discovered by the mastermind. It might have even happened already.

So, the hunting squad did not hope that the chip could pinpoint the specific location of the Deification Capsule pharmacy.

Its goal was just to guide the biochemical rats with the cameras and sensors close to the drainage pipe of the Deification Capsule pharmacy.

As expected, after a few biochemical rats died, the remaining biochemical rats sent good news one after another.

They found a well-hidden drainage pipe.

The liquid waste there shone with a faint, fluorescent, green light.

It was the color of the Deification Capsules.

They also found some pests’ damaged carcasses near the drainage pipe. The animals hadn’t died from bite marks, but had been burned.

“These pests living near draining pipes show symptoms of self-immolation, just like humans who took the Deification Capsules?”

To be on the safe side, they controlled one biochemical rat to crawl into the liquid waste with the thickest green light and start eating it.

Soon, it started screeching and spasming, like it was flailing its limbs. Its body started growing madly, and terrifying wounds appeared on its skin. Its claws became sharper and more dangerous as well.

In the end, flames gushed out of its throat, and in just a few seconds, its entire head burned to the point that only its skull was left.

The other biochemical rats recorded this scene clearly.

This was enough to prove that the Deification Capsule pharmacy was above the drainage pipe.
