Chapter 394: 394

Chapter 394: Push Forward in Smoke!

To prevent monsters attacking their city, Dragon City used a lot of structures and technology to build forts and strongholds as the initial structure .

Even skyscrapers that were hundreds of meters tall were in the shape of pyramids and gravity dams . Their bases were huge, and the higher they went up, the more they would shrink in width . The additional space would be perfect to serve as the base for anti-aircraft guns to fend against flying monsters .

Hence, the crystal bombs the monsters buried underground were unable to reduce the dozens of buildings into dust right away .

Even though they swayed and started tilting toward the ground while parts of them collapsed, the overall structure of those buildings still remained intact .

The citizens inside were fine for the time being, unless they were affected by the impact of the explosions underground .

But the explosions did not stop .

Each time one happened, the ground would tremble fiercely .

No matter how firm the buildings were, they could not resist continuous attacks .

They began to collapse and were gradually devoured by the earth .

Many people began to crawl out of the tilting buildings .

Some people wore 3D mobile gears and jumped down from dozens of meters in the air .

Those without 3D mobile gears climbed down ropes .

Right now, the greatest problem was not the explosions or collapsing buildings .

It was the dust and smoke .

The thick smog was like a demon baring its teeth . It continuously crawled into the buildings through the windows and embrasures and prevented people from being able to see anything .

When they sucked in the hot smog filled with poisonous powder produced by the crystal bombs, not only were they unable to see clearly, they could also suffocate .

“There’s a lot of citizens who require help over there!” Meng Chao felt really anxious . “Damn it . The enemy didn’t target Noble Descent Hotel first . Instead, they detonated the explosives under the offices and apartments around the hotel . Their goal is to create chaos so a lot of citizens would require help and no reinforcements would enter the hotel!”

At that moment, a large amount of almost black smoke surrounded Noble Descent Hotel .

The crystal bombs buried under Noble Descent Hotel were located at much more precise locations . The enemy had dug out the rock stratum under the foundation and exploded the four corners at the same time, which made Noble Descent Hotel sink underground as if it had shrunk by one floor .

Soon, it would be completely shrouded in black smoke and they would be unable to see anything .

When Meng Chao saw the smoke that looked like a black demon, he felt like he was facing irreversible fate that had taken physical form .

“Damn it all!” Meng Chao spat at fate . There was blood in his spit .

Then, he injected himself with gene medicine with ingredients extracted from an Apocalyptic Beast’s blood . The needle went right above his heart .

He felt as if he had turned into an Apocalyptic Beast as well .

He placed two chipped and bloody sabers behind his back . They were no longer sharp, but looked even fiercer than before . Then, he tightened the grenade-covered tactical vest bound to his arms with chains and placed the Hammer of Destruction on his shoulder . Meng Chao was about to jump down more than one hundred meters from the roof…

“Look!” Lu Siya suddenly cried out .

Meng Chao turned his head around and squinted in the direction she had pointed .

Hundreds of sparkling dots could be seen under the burning dark clouds decorating the dark sky . They were heading swiftly toward them .

“Those are…” Meng Chao was stunned for three seconds before he suddenly jumped three feet in excitement . He swung his fists fiercely . “Gliders! Heaven Realm superhumans with gliders! One… Two… Five… There are at least a dozen of them! They’re rushing over from all sides!”

“There too . ” Lu Siya pointed at the ground .

There was a long line of soldiers formed by Red Dragon Army’s rapid response forces over there . They were heading at their fastest speed to Noble Descent Hotel .

The explosions and smoke had already turned into indisputable evidence . Meng Chao and Lu Siya believed that more military fighters would be on their way here at the fastest speed they could muster .

Their communication terminals kept on sending them notifications .

Moments earlier, Lu Siya had used her connections and contacted countless powerful fighters .

Meng Chao also contacted his tutor, Gu Jianbo, his tutor’s wife, Li Yingzi, the powerful fighters skilled in Ripple Force in Yan Organization, Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu, and the backbones of the Broken Star Club . He also asked Qin Hu to send more of the veteran hunters .

A lot of these people were in the southern battlefield and could not be contacted for the time being .

Those who they were able to contact had their own positions that had to be defended and duties that needed carrying out .

But in the end, plenty of people heard about the news regarding monsters attacking Starlake Region, and without hesitation, they came forward to offer assistance .

“Thank goodness . ” Meng Chao closed his eyes and laughed . “The real fight is only going to start now . Not only have we not lost, we’re going to launch a counterattack . We will even have the chance to find the mastermind of the abnormal beasts . ”

‘No matter who you are, today marks the day of your death! This place will be your apocalypse!’

Meng Chao’s eyes flew open .

In the depths of his gaze was the killing intent from the apocalypse .

He went to the other end of the roof, sucked in a deep breath, and went into a crouching start .

“Let’s go!”

It was as if there were two crystal bombs under his feet . When he stomped on the roof, he left two holes in the sturdy reinforced concrete . His speed instantly reached its max, and in 1 . 7 seconds, Meng Chao ran through the entire roof with heavy weapons on his body . Then, he jumped without hesitation and soared through the air like a roc with its wings spread .

He flew dozens of meters without relying on any 3D mobile gear . He used his physical body to land on the roof of another building that was lower by dozens of meters .

When he landed, he did not hesitate . He did not even tumble to negate the force . The muscles, veins, and spirit tattoos on his legs popped out at the same time . His knee joints and ankle joints were like springs that were both tough and soft . He turned the force of impact into high speed propelling force to continue moving forward . Then, he jumped from the roof of the second building to the third roof . This time, the building was even lower .

Like that, he jumped five times and arrived near the smoke .

Ahead of him was a collapsed building .

At that moment, a father holding his child was having a difficult time crawling out through a twisted window .

He had tied himself tightly with his child with a bedsheet and was using his hands and legs to slowly climb down the steep wall of the building so that he could reach the ground .

But the entire building was continuously struck from below and it was about to be completely destroyed .

Crack! Crack!

Terrifying shattering sounds came from within the building .

They were followed by vicious tremors .

The father slipped and fell off the edge of the building .

Below him were ruins shrouded in smoke, and no one could tell whether there were scary monsters lurking around .

Without hesitation, Meng Chao jumped toward the father with the child .

But they were too far away from each other, and he had no platform to use . When Meng Chao reached the highest point of his jump, he started falling .

He threw his chain sabers at lightning speed .

One of them stabbed deep into the tip of the tilted building . The other wrapped itself around the father and child .

Meng Chao summoned strength in both of his arms and gave a vicious pull so that the two civilians would be sent to a relatively flat surface .

The father was dazed and shocked .

When he saw the chain saber suspended in the air and Meng Chao, he finally realized what happened and smiled in recognition . He waved vigorously at Meng Chao to express his gratitude .

Just when Meng Chao was about to motion for the father to take his child away from the smoke, the building above the three of them was finally unable to remain standing . The top shattered, and a large amount of reinforced concrete went straight for the father and child on the ground .

“Careful!” Meng Chao’s face drained of all color .

The part of the building where his chain saber was embedded also shattered, and he lost his balance .

There was no time for him to jump to the father and child!

At the critical moment when the reinforced concrete that had to weigh tonnes was about to crush the father and child into pulp, the ground beneath their feet suddenly moved in a strange manner . A stone dragon shot out and sent them more than ten meters away .

Boom!

The reinforced concrete crashed down heavily and stirred up a chaotic wave of smoke and dust .

Meng Chao landed on the ground and rushed deep into the smoke regardless of the costs .

There, he saw Lu Siya . She was covered in dust and spat on the ground with a gloomy face . Her spit was full of powdered dust .

“Th-Thank you…” The father who was saved twice in a row was already so terrified that he was incoherent .

The child in his arms started bawling .

“You don’t have to thank me . This is what we are supposed to do as superhumans . After all, superhumans fight for human civilization, and the strong should bleed for the weak!”

When Lu Siya turned around, there was a smile on her face . She took a step forward and ruffled the child’s head while she spoke gently . “Don’t cry . Trust me, I will definitely send all the monsters running!”

Meng Chao did not know whether her words had effect or whether it was her talent as a Spirit Sensor that allowed her to control her spirit energy with great precision to appease the child’s vitality magnetic field, but the child did stop crying and stared at Lu Siya with curiosity and idolization .

“Go . Listen to your daddy and run outside to somewhere safe . The Red Dragon Army is here now . More superhumans are coming too . You’ll be fine . Dragon City will be fine too!”

Lu Siya smiled and rolled up her sleeves to swing her fists as she said, “As for me, I’m going to teach the monsters who dared to bully you a harsh lesson!”

Once she said that, the child’s gaze became glued to her . He was reluctant to move it away even a small fraction .

“Big Sis, what’s your name?” the child asked with his young voice .

“My name is… Superhuman!” Lu Siya smiled sweetly .

As Meng Chao watched the father and child leave, his mouth hung so low that someone could stuff an egg inside . He stared at Lu Siya with shock .

“Are you really Big Sis Ya?” he asked in disbelief . “Are you controlled by an abnormal beast or is a monster pretending to be you? Why have I never realized that you cared about normal people’s lives so much?”

“The lives and deaths of normal people are none of my concern . But there are cameras here . ” Lu Siya pointed at her shoulder camera and smirked while she said, “I have a feeling that we’ll have a chance to contribute greatly to this battle and will receive countless awards as well as a lot of interviews .

“If the interviewers and citizens realize that this incident also happened while we were on duty, they’ll notice that we risked our lives to save people but didn’t even leave our names behind after we did a good deed . We even promoted the slogan from the Survival Committee enthusiastically . Whew . At that time, if we’re not hailed as model superhumans, all the citizens in the city won’t agree to it!”
