I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

"This is Mo Sheng. I have spotted a person who appears to be the target. Requesting backup. The location is in Sheng'an City."

"Suspected?" Huang Tao frowned and said, "Mu Mu, you guys go ahead, I'll go contact that person."

Suspected...

really?

Or is it just a smokescreen?

Boom boom boom boom....

With the roar of cannons, the battle had begun in earnest. The Beian Military Administrative Region was mainly facing attacks from insect beasts in the territory of its northern neighbor, which was closer than the Sichuan region. Logically speaking, the Beian Military Administrative Region should have been attacked several hours earlier.

However, the insectoid beasts have only made a move now.

Based on this phenomenon, can it be seen as a signal that 'the Gu King is ready to withdraw'?

Huang Tao frowned. He also had many considerations. The Gu King was treacherous and cunning, and he had to be wary of him.

The current situation is that the entire Beian Military Administrative Region has been completely sealed off, with no blind spots. It is brightly lit, with searchlights, flares, and other equipment all being used. The roads leading out of the city are blocked, and there are countless instruments monitoring underground. The airspace is blocked by Liu Mengxian, and the four city walls are guarded by ninth-level guards, making it as solid as a rock.

If you were to ask where the safest place in China is right now, it would undoubtedly be this place. Every location has several ninth-tier guardians protecting it, making it the safest place imaginable.

But this is just wishful thinking on the part of ordinary people.

These ninth-level beings will not intervene unless it is a critical moment.

Once the attack is made, it means that the vigilance against the Gu King will be relaxed, and it may take advantage of the situation to escape.

—Ah, the ninth-ranked one won't make a move, but Liu Mengxian will.

After all, it was insectoid beasts that came.

Suddenly, the world fell silent, and an overwhelming pressure that terrified everyone arrived in an instant.

Huang Tao turned around in shock.

Boom——————

Suddenly, a deafening roar shook the earth, startling Huang Tao. An unbelievably dazzling light erupted from Bei'an City, leaving nothing but barren land in its wake. Looking at it was like staring directly at a super-powerful spotlight. Even Huang Tao dared not look at it for too long, realizing that it would damage his eyes and cause him to suffer temporary hearing loss.

rustling, rustling, rustling...

The ground trembled more violently, as if the previous roar had directly pierced through the earth's crust, causing the surface to shift. The earth-shattering tremors made people's hearts tighten.

"Report! Report! The fighting in Bei'an City has ceased..."

He heard a stuttering voice from the Bei'an City commander over the walkie-talkie. He was completely bewildered. What was he seeing?

A massive blue 'crystal', hundreds of meters in diameter, tore through the thunderstorm clouds and fell from the sky, landing behind the swarm of insects.

Gone, everything is gone. The familiar terrain, the mountains and seas of insects and beasts, all gone.

Just like at the end of the Yongjing Battle, after a loud bang, an entire mountain range disappeared, and the Sequence-level Grim Reaper also died.

"Holy crap, this is a monster after all. Is there any chance of fighting it?"

Liu Dianxin, from Sheng'an City, cursed in shock, suddenly losing all confidence in himself.

If the plan to kill Ina fails, will I still have a chance to escape?

"Damn it... should I just run away like this? Anyway, the Swiftness Crystal I have is enough for me to advance further... No, no, if I'm the only one trying to break through to the Soul Heaven realm, I'll definitely die a horrible death..."

Liu Dian suppressed his inner desires; there was only one path before him—to share the firepower.

Seriously, trying to break through on your own is practically suicide.

To succeed, we must rely on the power of the Mirage Dragons.

35. To gamble everything

Liu Dian trembled as he prepared to continue pretending to be a model citizen, but unfortunately, things didn't go as he hoped.

"The little bugs that followed us seem to have become more wary!"

His gaze turned cold. With his strength, he had noticed a bunch of tagalongs following him when he came out of the department store. He had initially just let them monitor him, but just now, the atmosphere changed.

There is murderous intent.

Moreover, this murderous aura was directed at him.

"Have we been discovered? No, if we had been discovered, the sense of crisis should be even greater..."

"In other words, only suspicious points were discovered..."

Liu Dian quickly analyzed the situation, but he did not intend to be put in a passive position. Even if it was just suspicion, he could not sit idly by and wait for his death.

Thirty-six strategies, taking action is the best strategy!

When he turned a corner, the people who were tracking Liu Dian found that they could no longer find him, as if he had vanished into thin air.

"Report immediately!"

Having lost track of their target, they frantically pulled out their walkie-talkies to report, but by then Mo Sheng had already arrived at the scene.

"No need, I understand."

Mo Sheng lowered her eyes, her gaze cold.

If it was just suspicion before, now Liu Dian's suspicious points have increased dramatically. He is almost one step away from being confirmed as the Gu King!

"Sheng'an City, the lockdown measures have been tightened, requesting more support."

"Mo Sheng, have you found him?"

At this moment, Mu Mu arrived with Ye Qianxue, and Xiao Ze was also there.

With three powerful ninth-level experts arriving at once, Mo Sheng felt more confident and said, "We've discovered a suspicious person, who is highly likely to be the Gu King! But he sensed something was wrong first and ran away."

"They ran away?" Mu Mu raised an eyebrow.

"They only ran away a minute ago, which at least narrowed down the target's location to Sheng'an City."

Ye Qianxue said with a sullen face, "We don't have enough manpower for a comprehensive search, and the fighting outside has already tied up a lot of people—"

Om-!

Sheng'an City is now lit up.

Amidst the dazzling light, Sheng'an City seemed to rise from the clouds, about to separate itself from the world. Endless rain of light rose from the battlefield outside the city walls, and all was silent, shrouded in an eerie stillness.

"Sheng'an City, temporarily safe..." The commander's trembling voice, filled with astonishment and ecstasy, came through Mo Sheng's walkie-talkie.

"This, this—" Ye Qianxue swallowed hard.

The scene was exactly the same as before. With a single strike, the concept of 'battlefield' vanished. No matter how large the war was, it could only end in the face of Hun Tian.

Mo Sheng said smugly, "Now we have manpower, right?"

"..." Ye Qianxue silently turned her gaze away.

Liu Dian, who had only walked a short distance, suddenly turned deathly pale.

—It's over! That monster is here!

He was trembling with panic. He hadn't expected the woman to arrive here so quickly. If he was discovered, he would die! He wouldn't even have a chance to struggle.

"However...this is an opportunity!"

Liu Dian gritted his teeth. His target was in Bei'an City. He hadn't dared to touch Liu Mengxian before, but now he dared.

It's time to put the plan into action!

He issued an order to his insectoid army.

......

"Holy crap! Their attack is even more ferocious, and there are mutated species too! They've joined in!"

The garrison troops in Sichuan and Guangdong found that the insect beasts' offensive was even more intense, and they all rushed out at once, especially the Sky Beetles that suddenly emerged from the ground. More than a hundred of them suddenly appeared in one war zone!

Moreover, they discovered that the proportion of mutated species in the insectoid beast ranks was increasing, and eventually many high-ranking mutated species appeared, which immediately caused the situation, which had been barely maintaining a balance, to collapse.

Panzhihua City, Sichuan Military Administrative Region.

Because this area faced the least pressure in the entire Sichuan region, some of their forces were diverted to aid other cities, which weakened their defensive capabilities.

Faced with the sudden appearance of hundreds of Sky Beetles charging forward in a desperate attack, the garrison was completely stunned. This number far exceeded the military's saturation firepower!

The garrison troops, of course, couldn't let them get through so easily. They fought desperately to intercept them, shells hitting them one after another, creating explosions louder than ever before. Shards of armor flew everywhere, and people were astonished to discover that the 'shards of armor' shot off the beetles were actually poisonous blister beetles no bigger than a football.

"This is...this is a 'suicide truck'!!!"

In past Middle Eastern battlefields, it has been common to see local Middle Eastern troops using suicide trucks to force their way through checkpoints. They would either kill the driver before the truck arrived, blow up the truck, or wait for the truck to drive right up to them before it exploded. If someone was hit in the face, it would inevitably cause very serious casualties.

Each one was covered with flea-like venomous insects, charging towards the city wall like a suicide squad. Once they broke through, the situation would collapse instantly!

"Stop them! Stop them even if it costs you your lives!"

The commander roared with bloodshot eyes, but it had no effect. The Sky Beetle ability user, whose body was covered with 'explosives', dared not touch it, as it would explode if touched. He could not get close and could only attack with artillery fire.

boom!

In the end, they couldn't stop them all. One of the beetles successfully rushed to the foot of the city wall and crashed into it to the soldiers' horror. This caused a chain reaction, and all the poisonous explosives on the beetle surged out, resulting in a violent explosion. Debris rained down, and people in the area were instantly blown to pieces and sent flying into the air. A huge crater appeared in the 30-meter-thick city wall, but it wasn't enough to cause it to collapse immediately.

However, this was like a marker point, and all the other beetles in the vicinity rushed towards this pit.
