Human Shackles - Chapter248

The vehicle drove to a tightly guarded building complex. Machine guns and rocket launchers stood in the concrete sentry posts, and teams of tall mecha guards patrolled back and forth. The atmosphere was cold and strict.

The pyramidal building was in sight. As the capital of Higashimogami Province, Shangjing City could be said to be built by gathering the strength of the entire country. It also gathered the most powerful military technology and physical soldiers. The most powerful building was this pyramid-shaped tower that was several hundred meters tall. At the top of the tower was a semi-transparent diamond that was dozens of meters long and tall. This was a type of crystal that was condensed from the body of a high level complete form Direbeast. It could emit a powerful aurora, and even complete form Direbeasts could only run away.

Luo Kai stared at the dazzling giant crystal at the top of the tower and asked, "What is this place?"

Luo Shang smiled and said, "This is Shangjing's military strategic command center. Since Marquis Luo is also the commander of the Royal Elite Guards, it's not impossible for you to also be our military's senior advisor!"

Luo Kai said helplessly, "I don't have time."

Luo Shang said with deep meaning, "Marquis Luo, you haven't even become a physical master, but you were able to defeat four Seafolk physical masters by yourself. The news that Saint Master Yun Shan gave you the Book of the Universe has already spread. In the future, you won't be able to slack off. It's said that the Physical Arts Association also has the intention of letting you take on the position of vice president."

Luo Kai frowned. He was introverted and didn't like to be so ostentatious.

Luo Shang continued, "Right now, a Seafolk fleet is cruising in the coastal area, and there are signs of invasion. The Seafolk's technology and evolution are far superior to the human race. Even the most ordinary soldier has the strength of a physical warrior. Moreover, they are born with the ability to control water. The great elementalists among them can even summon the wind and rain.

If they were on land, they might be able to fight, but in the sea, the human race is far from their match. The Xi Clan's coastal combat fleet has been forced to curl up in the harbor, not daring to leave. Their coastal transportation has also been cut off. Offense is the best defense. The military is currently planning to annihilate this fleet, using the land's long-range cannons and large-scale fighter jets to gain the initiative! "

Luo Kai's heart sank. "Is it unavoidable?"

Luo Shang said with a solemn expression, "For a long time, the sea beasts have never invaded the land. But during this period of time, it's not just the Sea Race. The sea beasts have also frequently appeared in the coastal areas. There are even full-bodied Vicious Beasts that have invaded Shang Jing City. Fearing war will lead to death, and fighting will lead to exhaustion. We need a war to inspire the people and intimidate the sea beasts!"

Luo Kai sighed. Once the war between two civilizations started, it would definitely not end well. He said, "Do you need me to do anything?"

"I have just met with Xi Jinghui from the Xi Family. He said that Marquis Luo also specializes in the way of water. We urgently need a large number of Water Elementalists and Physique Masters to suppress the Great Elementalists of the Sea Tribe. When the time comes, please help us, Marquis Luo."

Luo Kai didn't say anything. Instead, he closed his eyes. He wasn't afraid of war. Deep in his heart, he even yearned for it. War represented destruction, and destruction was also a part of the Heavenly Dao's reincarnation cycle. He faintly felt that this might be the "Dao" he cultivated, his destiny!

… …

Three days later, Luo Kai stood at the port of Xinyi. He looked at the circling fighter jets in the sky. The salty sea breeze that blew against his face evoked his memories. His consciousness gently seeped out of his body.

Waves of intimate frequencies came from the vast and boundless sea. The water molecules surging in the air were fresh and sweet, and the waves were lively and playful. Occasionally, the rumbling of the waves formed a kind of rhythm that was full of movement. There was no better frequency in the world than this. If in the past, the frequency of water was a bit similar to the mutual help between lovers, but now, he felt that he was no longer separated from the sea. It was a bit like the energy of heaven and earth was his energy.

Next to him were two steel battleships with a displacement of tens of thousands of tons. The densely packed ferocious barrels were exposed. This was the era of battleships and cannons. The tonnage of a battleship not only affected its defense and attack power, but also could resist the surging waves of the sea.

These two battleships were the largest Giant Kun class battleships of the human race. The surface of the battleship was made of metal mixed with the bones of ferocious beasts. Its defense was amazing. The main cannons of the battleships could also fire powerful weapons like fission shells. One shell was enough to flatten a small mountain. Even a full-body ferocious beast could only avoid it. Unfortunately, this kind of steel behemoth hid in the port and didn't dare to gallop in the sea.

This was because the fleet of the sea race was more powerful. The human fleet tried to drive them away, but the whole fleet was beaten by several light patrol ships of the sea race. The sea race had developed a new energy technology. Their battleships were not only lighter and more agile, but also had amazing attack power. When it came to the performance of the battleship and the use of seawater, the human fleet was far inferior to the sea race.

In the distant sea, several small white battleships were cruising, jumping out of the sea and diving into the water. They were the patrol ships of the sea race. When they dived into the sea, they disappeared without a trace. When they jumped out of the water, they were as fast as flying. Compared to the heavy steel battleships of the human race, they were like two different levels of civilization confronting each other.

The human military headquarters was planning to annihilate the fleet of the sea race, and the sea race was also planning to break into the Port of Xinyi. The main fleet was far away from the shooting range of the port's cannons. Only some light patrol ships were nearby provoking and collecting information.

After leaving the military headquarters, Luo Kai went to the small mountain. Unsurprisingly, the complete arm bone of the ferocious beast was gone. He didn't care about external objects, so he didn't have the heart to look for it.

Then he went back to the University of Shang Jing to retrieve the Beckoning the Moon sword. At his current level, there was not much difference between any weapons. Even if there was a slight difference, it would have a great impact on the battle of the same level. Compared to the sword, he was more familiar with the sword.

The Blade of Dissociation hidden in his consciousness was being nourished by his spiritual power. From time to time, it would emit an intimate frequency. It didn't disappear, but it couldn't be used in a short period of time. Since he was going to participate in the possible war, a weapon was indispensable. He could only make do with the Beckoning the Moon sword.

Now that the University of Shang Jing had entered a state of war, a large number of students had been recruited. The upcoming war was the battle of the fate of the human race. If they lost, the human race might be forced to give up the coastal areas and go inland to compete with the ferocious beasts for territory.

Of course, the human race was not at a disadvantage. In addition to the advantage of being on the defensive side, they also had a great advantage, which was their air force. Although the sea race fleet also had carrier-based fighters, their numbers were far less than the human race's. Moreover, the sea race was good at naval battles, so their strength on land was greatly reduced. What was worrying was the great elementalists of the sea race. When many great elementalists of the water element gathered together, they could trigger a huge tide that could engulf a human city.
