Chapter 350 - New Idea

nThe sky was cloudless.
nThe location of every blade of grass on the ground and the real-time distribution of the mutant creatures were all sent back to the air base.
nThe hundreds of staff members in the command center quickly analyzed and organized the data, following the protocols in an orderly manner.
nAt some point, a signal was transmitted to the fighter jets from thousands of kilometers away.
nControl Center: The target is the location where the mutant creatures gathered outside Delhi City. Begin the bombardment.
nPilot: Roger that.
nAs soon as she finished speaking,
nthe two futuristic fighter jets suddenly climbed higher. After reaching the target height, they turned around and swooped down towards the city from both sides.
nThe spikes extending from the front of the plane began to activate. On one side was the power of nature related to fire, and on the other was the power of nature related to lightning.
n“Boom, boom, boom…”
nA thunderous sound rang out in the clear sky, as if two tornadoes were about to descend from the sky.
nAt the same time, a red and blue light flashed, and Delhi City was suddenly enveloped by an overwhelming aura.
nThis was a phenomenon caused by the power of nature, causing a scene similar to that before a natural disaster occurred. It was quite scary. As an attack, it was equivalent to a weak version of the attacks at the level of the master realm.
nAfter all, the fragments of the extraordinary weapons were inanimate objects. Not only was the speed at which they could mobilize the power of nature slow, but they also needed to accumulate energy before launching an attack. In reality, it was more like sending out the power of nature in an attack.
nFurthermore, due to restrictions imposed by the materials, the accumulated energy was far from the maximum amount. It was similar to an energy attack that could quickly be recharged and shot out infinitely.
nThe strong point was the level of this power. This was an attack that mobilized the power of nature.
n“What’s that?”
n“Delhi City is about to be attacked. Run!”
n“But…”
n“What are you afraid of? There are many of us. If we don’t run this time, when will we have another chance?”
nAfter all, the two people who treated the trash cans as their home were an exception. Most of the humans who were hiding in the dark still wanted to escape from Delhi City.
nHowever, they lacked a signal, and the pressure imposed by the fighter jets gave the survivors in the city enough confidence to escape all at the same time.
nThis was the truth. The mutants on the street could not even take care of themselves. Some were escaping, and some were finding obstacles to hide behind.
nTaking advantage of this opportunity, humans rushed into the streets from abandoned wooden houses, underground sewers, and other places.
nImmediately after, after seeing their own kind, everyone became more confident in escaping the city. Amidst the commotion, the crowd scattered and fled.
nJust as Delhi City fell into chaos, the two futuristic fighter jets launched their attacks.
nHuge fireballs and forked lightning bolts appeared one after another, as if a natural disaster had occurred.
nHowever, unlike what those in the city had expected, the attacks avoided Delhi City and landed outside, bombarding the area in two straight lines along their path.
nEvery fireball was equivalent to a high-energy explosion. Every lightning explosion would form a large electric net. The mutant creatures melted away in the face of the power of nature.
n…
nIn the command center, the chaos in Delhi City and the scene of the mutant creatures being massacred by the fighter jets’ attacks appeared on the huge display in front of them.
nThis proved that the futuristic fighter jets’ first actual combat practice was a success. The atmosphere in the control center also became fired up, and every staff member’s face was filled with pride.
nThe futuristic fighter jets represented the Daxia Kingdom and left the country. These were all honors that were worth bragging about in the future. As one of those involved, how could they not be excited?
nChen Yiming sighed. “It looks like the Ganges Kingdom has completely fallen!”
nWhat he was concerned about was not how powerful the futuristic fighter jets were, or how they had destroyed the mutant creatures one after another, but the reaction in the capital, Delhi City.
nFrom the moment the survivors rushed out of the city, it was clear that the rulers of the city were the mutant humans and mutant creatures.
nAs for whether the higher-ups of the country were dead or had mutated, it did not make much of a difference. Either way, it meant that the Ganges Kingdom had become disunited.
nWithout external forces interfering, the power of the mutants would only increase. In the end, the entire Ganges Kingdom would be filled with mutants.
nTo the Daxia Kingdom, having such a neighbor was a terrible outcome.
n“I’m sorry, please excuse me.”
nAt this moment, Feng Tao stood up and spoke solemnly. Then, he quickly left anxiously.
nThe Ganges Kingdom had a high chance of completely falling into the enemy’s hands. This was too big a matter, so much so that it overshadowed the joy brought about by the successful attacks from the fighter jets.
nFeng Tao was given full command of the combat mission, but it involved a large country with a large population. It could only be decided by the higher-ups of the country.
nAfter Feng Tao left, Chen Yingying asked softly, “Brother, are you going to save the Ganges Kingdom?”
nChen Yiming’s eyelids twitched.
nSave? How?
nIf he transformed into a 1,000-meter-tall giant and stomped down, ordinary people, mutant humans, and mutant creatures would all be destroyed along with the city itself. If he tried to save them, he would probably cause even more chaos instead.
nAs for the mutants, with their large numbers, could he kill them all?
nAs soon as Chen Yingying asked this, she realized that she was too naive.
nNo matter how strong a single person was, unless they were stationed on site, they would not be able to reverse the situation. Furthermore, the Daxia Kingdom was still facing the pressure from the black tide, and they needed the space plan to ensure that they had a way out.
nHow could Chen Yiming leave the country so easily? If he lost his home, the consequences would be unbearable.
nTime quickly passed by.
nThe combat report from the two futuristic fighter jets was still coming in.
nThe mutant creatures they encountered along the way were not too powerful. This allowed the fighter jets to be just like two martial masters that were beating up some weaklings.
nFeng Tao had yet to return, and no one knew when he would return.
nChen Yiming suddenly recalled the news report that a special team of 1,000 people armed with extraordinary weapons had entered the otherworld.
nHe was not clear on the situation there, so he asked Ye Jianyuan, “The Myriad Phenomena Sect should have also made a lot of ‘reforged extraordinary weapons’, right? How is the actual combat performance?”
nYe Jianyuan shook his head and said, “It’s too dangerous. The user has to be very careful. Even so, it’s very easy to be accidentally injured by the power of nature in battle.”
nChen Yiming nodded.
nIn his mind, he roughly imagined the scene of warriors fighting with the reforged extraordinary weapons.
nA complete extraordinary weapon had precise control over the power of nature. It could be said to be equivalent to a third arm.
nHowever, it was not the same for the reforged extraordinary weapons. They could only roughly mobilize the power of nature for their own use.
nFor example, if one activated a reforged extraordinary sword and slashed at the enemy, the enemy would melt and a long and deep ravine would appear on the ground behind him.
nHowever, if he did not leave in time, the power of nature that spread out would not differentiate him from the enemy.
nWith the talent of most humans, the protective internal force of warriors would likely shatter at the slightest touch from the power of nature.
nYe Jianyuan thought for a moment and asked, “Sect Master, do you want us to send some people along with the reforged extraordinary weapons to support the southwestern border?”
nHe had also seen Delhi City’s reaction and thought of something at a deeper level.
nChen Yiming continued, “The reforged extraordinary weapons are not effective in actual combat. The Myriad Phenomena Sect can try to work with the military factory and remake it into something similar to the cannons. It might be more practical.”
nThis idea was inspired by the futuristic fighter jets. If it was remade into an extraordinary cannon, other than the fragments of the extraordinary weapon that were the core, they could just replace the rest of components like the barrels if they were damaged.
nAfter the extraordinary cannon was activated by the person controlling it, there was no need to hold it in one’s hand like a weapon. The probability of being accidentally injured would definitely decrease greatly.
nYe Jianyuan agreed immediately, and said that he would settle this matter once he returned.
nThis was something that could be implemented only at Che Yiming’s suggestion. No matter what others said, he wouldn’t have agreed because this involved the principles of the martial artists.
nGiving up on weapons and turning to heavy artillery, most of a warrior’s martial arts power was useless. How could a martial artist accept this so easily?
n…
nAt 9 pm that night, the two futuristic fighter jets returned to the Southwest Air Force Base.
nFrom the time they set off to the time they returned, the flight time was a total of eight hours. In between, the actual combat time was three hours.
nThis was not much different from the theoretical maximum flight time of 10 hours.
nIn order to settle the matter entrusted to him properly, Ye Jianyuan had specially waited in the landing area in advance and witnessed the actual condition of the fighter jets when they landed.
nThe tails and heads of the planes were completely deformed, and half of the surface had dissolved. In other words, after one mission, they had to reforge the fragments of the extraordinary weapon within the planes.
nThe two pilots were unharmed, but they were in low spirits. They had used up a lot of energy and had lost a lot of weight.
nIn a room that was used for resting,
nChen Yiming communicated with the figure in his mind.
nHe received the news that the situation in the otherworld was still the same. The army of mutant creatures still swept through most of the areas as though they had the intention of destroying the entire otherworld.
nThere were not many obstacles to stop them, and the otherworld had yet to organize an effective resistance.
nBased on all the information he had gathered, he felt that the 10,000-meter-long corpse he had dug out should have been the main force in resisting the arrival of the black tide previously. However, there might not be any experts at this level in the otherworld anymore.
nEven if there were, the few experts who had survived and reached this level did not dare to resist at all. Instead, they hid and let the mutant creatures spread fear and chaos in the otherworld.
nWhen Chen Yiming arrived next to the fighter jets that were parked on the runway, the staff in charge of maintenance were doing a full overhaul of the fighter jets.
n“You’re here,” Feng Tao greeted him.
n“Have you come to a conclusion?”
n“This matter involves another country. It’s not easy to deal with!” Feng Tao smiled bitterly.
nChen Yiming nodded.
nThe space plan was the first priority for the Daxia Kingdom. At this time, how could they be willing to create more trouble for themselves? Furthermore, in reality, the huge population of the Ganges Kingdom was also a burden.
nWhen the higher-ups thought of this, they would be at a loss.
nIf they did not consider the international situation on the blue planet, they could turn a blind eye and pretend that they did not see or notice anything. No one would be able to do anything to the Daxia Kingdom.
nChen Yingying and Shen Mengwei sat on the lawn by the roadside and chatted softly.
nSeeing Chen Yiming turn his gaze towards her, Chen Yingying sat up and patted the grass off her pants.
nChen Yiming walked over and took out the three complete extraordinary weapons from his pocket, stuffing them into Chen Yingying’s hands.
n“Brother? Are you giving all of them to me?”
nChen Yingying widened her eyes in surprise.
n“You’re thinking too much. It’s already a waste for you to take one of them. In reality, it’s not very useful to you.”
nChen Yiming rolled his eyes at his sister.
n“Then?”
n“Pick one! Take it as a gift in advance,” Chen Yiming said calmly.
nAt this moment, Feng Tao, Ye Jianyuan, and Shen Mengwei followed him over. They saw Chen Yiming take out three toy-sized weapons from his pocket: a small sword, a flail, and a shield.
n“Yingying, that toy shield is so exquisite!”
nShen Mengwei was immediately attracted by the shield.
n“Is that so? I think this flail suits me better,” Chen Yingying said.
nShe imagined a scene in her mind: When she can use her materialized spiritual power to control this flail, she can use its ability to restrain the enemy. It could complement her archery skills.
nWith two types of attacks at once, how could her opponent escape?
nOn the other hand, the small sword and the shield, one focused on offense and the other on defense. They did not seem to be compatible with her archery skills.
n“Ah! I think the small sword is much better than the flail,” Shen Mengwei said in surprise.
nFeng Tao and Ye Jianyuan glanced at each other and also felt that the small sword and shield were clearly more attractive.
nOf course, the two of them had considered the details of the design. The flail looked ordinary. If it wasn’t Chen Yiming who had taken it out, no one would have given it a second glance.
n“These three are all complete extraordinary weapons. The flail can extend for a long distance to tie up the enemy, which is very compatible with my archery skills,” Chen Yingying explained.
nAs soon as she finished speaking,
nFeng Tao and Ye Jianyuan were shocked. Their gazes stopped on the three toy weapons and they were stunned.
n“Oh my god, is this a complete extraordinary weapon?”
n“Why does it look like a small toy!”
nShen Mengwei nodded and said, “I see. Then you should indeed choose the flail.”
nShe had heard some information about the extraordinary weapons from her elders. This was not something that one should choose like they were toys.
nChen Yiming continued, “I’m going to destroy the other two weapons. There’s no turning back after making your choice. Are you sure?”
n“Yes,” Chen Yingying replied.
n“Alright.”
nChen Yiming took the small sword and shield from his sister.
nAt this moment, there seemed to be a flash of lightning in the air.
n“You want to destroy the complete extraordinary weapons?”
nWhen Feng Tao and Ye Jianyuan heard this, they were dumbfounded.
nFeng Tao could not understand it at all. These were the complete extraordinary weapons after all. If they could understand how to create them, human technology would definitely improve by leaps and bounds.
nIt would not be like now, where they were not even at the level of a mountain village. Although they had reforged the extraordinary weapons, it was actually not much different from using the fragments of the extraordinary weapons directly.
nYe Jianyuan had a similar opinion. What he thought of was that the sect master’s power could not be stopped. He could destroy the complete extraordinary weapons without any hesitation.
n“You can’t do that!”
nSuddenly, Feng Tao grabbed Chen Yiming’s hand. His voice was pleading, and he almost knelt down.
n“…”
nChen Yiming was speechless.
nA complete extraordinary weapon was of little value to humans at this stage.
nHe had already asked the two martial masters, Elder Zhang and Elder Huang. The power of nature they had mastered did not match the small sword or the shield.
nIf they used the extraordinary weapons, it would not increase their combat strength qualitatively.
nThis way, it was better to destroy them and turn them into heavy artillery to deal with the increasing pressure on the border.
n
