"F * ck, what kind of benefit is this … You got me killed … Ma Fei, go and see what it is …" Zhang Xiaoqiang panicked when he heard this. It was not an ordinary mutated beast that could cause such a commotion. A level 4 mutated beast could not shake the foundation of the entire Sandisland, and even a level 5 mutated beast could not cause such a huge tremor. It reminded Zhang Xiaoqiang of Japan. Before Japan sank, didn't an earthquake and a volcano erupt at the same time?
Zhang Xiaoqiang had just finished giving instructions to Ma Fei when the entire house collapsed with a crash. Zhang Xiaoqiang's vision blurred, and he found himself outside. He looked down and almost burst out laughing. Little Ma Fei was hugging his legs and lifting him up, like an ant carrying a tree. Then, a huge hole appeared in the collapsed roof. Between the scattered steel pipes and tarps, Zhuo Mingyue rushed out with Yang Ke-er, Meow Meow, and Yang Ke-er.
Shouts could be heard everywhere, and the chaotic evolvers were shouting and running back and forth, using their fastest speed to rescue the people in the collapsed houses. One by one, the funeral helicopters rose into the sky from the shaking ground. Many oil barrels rolled on the ground, and the open barrels spilled the golden red algae that purified the fuel spread on the ground. Many people screamed in panic. At the end of the fuel flow was the pile of materials that had accidentally caught fire, and there were dozens of armored vehicles and tanks near the pile of materials. If it caused a bigger fire, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The earthquake continued, and a large number of temporary houses collapsed one after another. There was more than one place on fire, and black smoke rose one after another. On the artillery position, the soldiers screamed as the cannons fell to the ground one after another, and the stacked boxes of ammunition also rolled on the ground. Fortunately, there were no fuses installed, or else it would have been another disaster.
"Mingyue, hurry up and put out the fire …" Zhang Xiaoqiang quickly scanned the surroundings, trying to find the most important thing to deal with. Among them, only Zhuo Mingyue had the ability to put out the fire. At this time, countless thin threads twisted the collapsed roof, and the battered Ai Xueqi crawled out, pulling Ai Qingshan out as well. Ai Qingshan's ability was not very useful in this situation, but Ai Xueqi, who did not have enough lethality, was able to deal with it easily. However, his reaction was much faster than Ai Xueqi's. Even though one of his feet was still in Ai Xueqi's hands, before he could get up, he saw the fuel that was about to be ignited. He could not help but shout, "My dear, put out the fire …"
Ai Qingshan's dear was a girl around 15 or 16 years old. She looked ordinary, and her expression was rigid. She had been watching the earthquake from afar. After hearing Ai Qingshan's call, she did not seem to do anything, but all the flames within a kilometer flew into the sky and converged into a fire dragon that flew into her hands. The little girl's methods shocked Zhang Xiaoqiang. He had never seen an evolver with the ability to go beyond 300 meters. Even Tie Er, who had obtained the horn crown, could not do so, but this little girl could control the flames within a kilometer, and it could be said that she was stronger than most of the gods.
At the same time that the fire crisis was resolved, a high-pitched howl resounded across the island like thunder. Tens of thousands of soldiers and evolvers hugged their heads and fell to the ground, howling. Even the helicopter in the air was shaky and unstable. Following that, a huge shadow swept across the island, and in the blink of an eye, the water snake flew across the entire island. For a moment, Zhang Xiaoqiang's jaw dropped. The huge water snake that was a few hundred meters long was like a little mudfish that had been thrown out, and he was truly frightened.
A huge wave exploded in the middle of the river, and hundreds of meters of water shot into the sky. The scattered water splashed thousands of meters away and landed on both sides of the island. It was like a heavy downpour, and the surging waves rolled towards the island. Although it was gradually decreasing, the waves that rose were still 20 to 30 meters high. It was like a tsunami, and if it came ashore, the thousands of people and the goods that were piled up on the island would be swept away.
Countless evolvers howled in anguish as they ran towards the nearest fort and pillbox. The ordinary soldiers could only grab onto some wood or boxes, hoping to preserve their lives. Most of them looked at the surging river in despair, and were scared out of their wits.
"Ha …" With a delicate shout, Zhuo Mingyue flew towards the surging river like a meteor. As she flew through the air, the air seemed to distort as if it was being burned by flames. The formless ripple turned into a field that could be seen by the naked eye, and it spread out to cover an area of a hundred meters. It was as if a shield had collided with the surging wave. With a loud explosion for the second time, the wave surged even higher, but it was no longer as thick as before, and was scattered and fragmented. Zhuo Mingyue spat out a mouthful of blood in midair, and flew backwards at double the speed.
Even so, the surging water still had an astonishing momentum as it rushed towards the Sand Continent Island. At this moment, no one could stop it. A dazzling laser beam shot down from the sky, like a sharp blade cutting through everything. Countless water droplets were instantly evaporated, the scorching hot steam rushing up to the sky, covering the earth and sky. However, the surging waves continued to rumble down like thunder.
Just as everyone's expressions were filled with panic and despair, the surging water turned into a cold current, and layers of steam condensed into ice in the air, forming fine hailstones that rained down. The vast expanse of white steam disappeared, and only a ten meter tall wave could be seen towering over the edge of the island like an iceberg. Layers of cold air spread over the iceberg, and the huge head of the water snake rose from behind the iceberg. Its purple eyes were as clear as crystal, and when it swept over everyone soaking in the muddy water, it was slightly startled when it saw Zhang Xiaoqiang. It immediately extended its scarlet tongue towards Zhang Xiaoqiang, as if it wanted to kiss him.
However, Zhang Xiaoqiang was not in the mood to play with the water snake. He turned around and ran towards Zhuo Mingyue, who was on the ground. Zhuo Mingyue's injuries were not light, and although he wanted to know what had thrown the water snake over, he could not do anything at the moment. The Funeral Helicopter and the frigate had already begun to fire, and the cannons on both sides of the river had also begun to gather. The water snake seemed to have been encouraged, and it became courageous after being humiliated, and took the initiative to meet the unknown monster.
With a bird's cry, the Rainbow Eagle shot towards the ground like a sharp arrow. Just as it was about to touch the ground, it rose up, and Meow sat on the Rainbow Eagle, carrying a heavy machine gun with a murderous aura as he charged towards the waterway in the center of the island. Countless sparks of fire poured into the turbulent waves like a waterfall, and layers of exploding water splashes and columns of water formed a wild storm. The twelve bastions aimed their firepower at all possible angles, dying the river water muddy. Layers of water vapor that had been evaporated by the high temperature rose up like a dense fog, and was then torn apart by the shockwaves and waves of explosions.
At this moment, the monster in the water could no longer remain dormant. From the layers of waves, a thirty-meter-tall giant beast rose up. This giant beast had the head of a crocodile and the body of a snake. From its chest, there were six thin, withered claws that were like bamboo poles. These three pairs of withered claws made it look like a six-legged spider, and each withered claw had three slender claws like a bird's claw. However, these bird claws were extremely deformed on the monster's body, and any claw that opened up was larger than its body. From afar, they did not look like claws, but more like wings that had grown in the wrong place.
The monster's abilities could not be discerned, but its strength was immeasurably tremendous. Its body was also immeasurably sturdy, its rock-like rough skin only shredded under the barrage of firepower, unable to deal any substantial damage to it. Its crocodile-like mouth was tightly shut, its serrated teeth like blades. Amidst the barrage of light and rockets, not only did the monster not roar or wail, it instead silently approached the nearest multi-edged fortress.
The multi-edged fortress was less than 20 meters tall, and compared to the monster, it was petite. Layers of flames exploded on the monster's body like flashing lights, but it could not make the monster retreat even a single step. The soldiers and evolvers of the multi-edged fortress tried their best, but they could not stop it. In the end, they collapsed. They retreated from the bridge that connected the fortress to the other fortresses. Just as everyone was retreating, the huge claws ruthlessly grabbed onto the fortress, and in a flash, the four anti-aircraft machine guns on the fortress were cut into pieces. Then, the claws that were more than 10 meters long cut through the fortress like tofu, and the nearly 20 meters tall multi-edged fortress was cut into three pieces vertically. The bottom of the claws pulled horizontally, and the multi-edged fortress that could accommodate more than a hundred people fell apart. The fortress that was supported by a concrete and steel structure broke into countless pieces, and the flames from the other fortresses suddenly stopped.
Be it the evolvers or the ordinary soldiers, they were all shocked. The multi-edged fortress was the support node of the sandbar's defense system. Even if the water snake wanted to break through one of them, it would take a long time. Every fortress was sturdier than a skyscraper in the city, and the initial design was designed to defend against large caliber artillery shells. Not to mention the monster's attack or bite, even an earth penetrator would not be able to destroy them in one hit. That day in Shanghai, the level 5 mutated beast that was hundreds of meters tall had not been able to destroy the tallest building, and no one would have thought that this unassuming beast that was less than a tenth of its height could actually do it to such an extent.
Everyone's hearts and souls were taken away, and their resistance rapidly decreased. Many of the fortresses' firepower was almost extinguished, and many people were already panicking and trying to escape. At this moment, the dazzling laser appeared again, and like a long sword, it cut off one of the beast's claws. Caught off guard, the meter-wide laser cut off one of the claws like a chainsaw, and the falling claw finally made the monster howl in pain. Finally, it opened its huge mouth.
Hundreds of sharp teeth as thick as an adult's thigh shone like a blade, and the deep mouth opened more than ten meters wide, revealing a throat that was like a black hole. More than ten rockets flew towards the mouth like birds returning to their nests. Just when everyone was hoping to kill the monster in one hit, a dark, thick smoke sprayed out from the mouth and covered all the rockets. The next moment, a series of low roars sounded in the thick smoke, but it could not disperse the thick smoke. Then, the laser flashed again, but the moment it came into contact with the black smoke, it scattered thousands of tiny rays of light and disappeared into the air. This strange smoke rapidly spread, and the monster's entire body was wrapped in it, as if it was moving black smoke.
