1755 Pulling the Rug Out from Underneath
This time, Meng Chao accurately split the ten thousand bullets fired by the six-barrel Vulcan cannons in the middle.
The broken bullets, however, did not fly everywhere. Instead, they were captured by his vitality magnetic field. They surrounded him and formed circles of glittering halos.
As for the rocket launcher with an intelligent fuse, Meng Chao used the slight vibration of his two sharp blades to send it flying diagonally. It only exploded when it was dozens of meters behind him.
Even if the Demon Scorpion’s firepower was so fierce that its body trembled and its gun barrel was about to melt, it could not stop Meng Chao from approaching it calmly.
!!
His speed suddenly increased when he almost came into contact with the Demon Scorpion’s muzzle!
“Ah!” countless audience members exclaimed in front of their screens.
The normal citizens who did not have extraordinary powers only saw a blur before their eyes. Meng Chao disappeared without any warning and soon reappeared behind the Demon Scorpion.
The Earth Realm experts who had awakened their extraordinary powers could barely see Meng Chao turn into a silver stream of light and pa.s.s through the center of the Demon Scorpion.
It was as if even the strongest laws of physics had lost their effect on Meng Chao, or the Demon Scorpion had just been an illusion with vivid sounds and visual effects.
The Heaven Realm experts with enhanced vision could barely see Meng Chao enter the state of being one with his saber. With his divine saber technique, he split the Demon Scorpion in half.
Since the speed of his blade was too fast, the Demon Scorpion remained in a complete state even though it had been cut.
The Deity Realm experts who called the shots in Dragon City saw many things from Meng Chao’s blade.
A bright light shone in their eyes, and it looked like they were quickly figuring out Dragon City’s future. It was a brand-new future with the addition of a huge variable such as Meng Chao!
Crack! Kachaa! Crack!
One second after Meng Chao “penetrated” the Demon Scorpion, the fire from the Demon Scorpion ceased, and the piercing sound of machinery breaking down came from the inside.
A shiny thin silver thread pierced through the Demon Scorpion from head to toe.
No, it was not as simple as just a silver thread.
This silver thread seemed to have a life of its own. It kept growing, spreading, and splitting. Soon, it turned into a crisscrossing silver spider web that wrapped the entire Demon Scorpion.
Ka-la! Kala! Kala!
Facing these silver threads, one of Dragon City’s strongest unmanned combat units was actually cut into thousands of fist-sized metal cubes. It fell apart, and its pieces scattered across the ground.
The scene left everyone dumbfounded and creeped out.
Everyone knew that an unmanned war chariot was not Meng Chao’s match.
However, they did not expect Meng Chao to use such unbelievable force to tear the Demon Scorpion into pieces in just one second.
Aside from Meng Chao’s own strength, the liquid metal armor he was wearing, which had a myriad of changes and extremely powerful combat abilities, played a key role in this. It could not be ignored.
Many experts who were watching the scene frowned and fell into deep thought.
With their enhanced vision, they could “see” the spirit flames that surged out of Meng Chao’s body.
Based on the color of the spirit flames, the level of the ripples, and the area it burned, Meng Chao had apparently not used any power that surpa.s.sed the Heaven Realm.
In other words, any Heaven Realm expert, or even a peak Earth Realm expert could achieve the same result if equipped with the armor.
What did Meng Chao just say?
In the lower and middle reaches of the Raging Tiger River, Picturesque Orchid Lake’s total population likely exceeded a hundred million, and five percent of them were Turan warriors, whose combat power was comparable to that of superhumans?
That was a total of five million warriors being comparable to superhumans.
Among the Turan Warriors, the ratio of third-cla.s.s, second-cla.s.s, and first-cla.s.s experts was the same as Dragon City’s Earth Realm, Heaven Realm, and Deity Realm.
On top of that, they were all equipped with totem armor.
They definitely had what it took to be a force to be reckoned with in Dragon City, the most terrifying opponent.
Obviously, the totem armor on Meng Chao’s body had to be an extremely special item.
The reason was simple. If all five million Turan warriors were equipped with such sharp armor, they would have flattened Monster Mountain Range long ago and tamed all the monsters into harmless pigs, dogs, cows, and sheep!
However, even if the ma.s.s-produced totem armor’s performance parameters were only half or even one-tenth of the luxury version that Meng Chao was wearing, it would be a pity that the totem armors’ performance was not as good as Meng Chao’s.
It would still be possible for them to fight in the home field of the natives, who were familiar with the local gra.s.s and trees… No, the natives would certainly cause heavy casualties to the Dragon City Expeditionary Army.
“The natives of this world are that strong?”
The faces of Dragon City’s powerhouses were uncertain.
It was especially true for the powerhouses from the nine mega corporations.
One should know that any enterprise, especially private enterprises, had profit as its lifeline.
As the saying went, “people do the business of beheading, but no one does the business of losing money.”
Originally, the nine mega corporations had tried to shake off the Red Dragon Army and send troops to Picturesque Orchid Lake, relying on their soldiers to fight a “corporate war.”
It was because they believed that the civilization of the indigenous people in the Other World was low and vulnerable. They thought that they could easily win and reap a lot of war benefits without spending much time, manpower, and material resources.
However, Meng Chao used the cruel reality to crush their childish and greedy thoughts.
Even if the comprehensive strength of the true Turan civilization could not be compared to that of Dragon City’s civilization. It was by no means a soft persimmon that could be eaten in one bite.
Millions of them were equipped with totem armor and were not afraid of death. They were pretty much reminiscent of superhumans. They would definitely be able to drive the Expeditionary Army from Dragon City into a prolonged war.
If the Expeditionary Force was made up of the elite forces of the nine mega corporations…
The so-called “North Advancement Plan” would not be an armed outing to reap the benefits of war, but a continuous b.l.o.o.d.y disaster.
“It seems that we have to reconsider the relationship between the nine mega corporations, the Red Dragon Army, and the Azure Alliance.”
Many of the superhumans from the rich and powerful families ran through their minds and realized in just a few seconds that, “The combat power of the natives in the Other World cannot be underestimated. If we really want to conquer the Other World through military means, we have to collaborate with the Red Dragon Army and even the Azure Alliance. We can rely on superhumans from the poor families and ordinary soldiers to fill the battlefront.
“Otherwise, if we rely on the elite forces of the nine mega corporations to fight the powerhouses in the Other World, we’ll only destroy our own companies and allow others to take advantage of us.
“It’s such a stupid battle plan. Forget about the Survival Committee. Even the board of directors from their respective companies won’t pa.s.s it! ”
Yun Feidian gritted his teeth, and his eyes were full of fire.
He finally understood that Meng Chao was using a drastic method to warn the mega corporations not to be stubborn.
What was even more d*mnable was the fact that Meng Chao had used the unmanned combat unit developed by Thundercloud Technology to hide his ident.i.ty.
While he showed off his strength, it dealt a heavy blow to Thundercloud Technology’s reputation!
