Chapter 104: Meaningless Struggle
About the Blood Demon Mother, these front-line soldiers actually knew quite a bit.
It was the first Blood Demon to invade this world, also the manipulator behind the parasitic behavior of Blood Demons, controlling all the Blood Demon Subordinates with formidable power. However, it was suppressed decisively by their Savior, known as the "God of Mankind," the strongest among the Chosen Ones, and dared not appear on the battlefield.
If it ever appeared, it would often be dealt with swiftly.
Hence, these front-line soldiers didn't really know how powerful the Blood Demon Mother actually was; they only knew that their numbers were limited, totaling only two hundred thirty-two.
Eliminating all these Blood Demon Mothers meant essentially ending this war!
And now, these mothers had appeared, clustering together!
What this meant was clear as day—the horde of monsters had realized their decline and were desperately making their last stand!
If they could just eliminate them, if they could just end this war!
All the soldiers grew restless in that instant, their hearts beating faster, their desire for victory overshadowing everything else at this moment!
"When is our Savior coming?" Paddy bellowed at the Major.
"Eight minutes! There's a countdown on your terminals!" The Major's voice trembled, evidently as overcome with excitement as everyone else, but he still maintained the basic calm expected of an officer, "But this isn't for us to engage in. Our current mission is to evacuate, to run! Those fighter jets are here to support our withdrawal!"
The moment his words fell, a blinding light suddenly erupted in the distance.
And not just one, a second and third... consecutively!
Those were the explosions of nuclear weapons!
Behind these Blood Demon Mothers, over ten million Blood Demons were accelerating towards this location. Including the Blood Demons from other battle zones, all the Blood Demons from the south had practically swarmed out, totaling an astonishing twenty-five million!
Even under satellite surveillance, Blood Demons that should have remained in factories for weapon production were also surging out!
The soldiers had a good sense of it; this indeed was the ultimate battle, at least on the Western State battlefield!
If the Western State war was won, it could already signify the countdown to the doomsday of Blood Demons!
At this time, the military headquarters no longer counted losses. Taking advantage of the unprecedented concentration of the Blood Demon army, they frenziedly threw nuclear weapons and missiles, launching everything they could. Almost all fighter jets and bombers took off, and all drones were fully operated, engaging in free-attack mode deep behind enemy lines!
If it weren't for the need to consider over three million soldiers retreating and the issue of nuclear radiation, someone would even consider densely bombing the entire Hua Da Mountain Range with nuclear weapons!
However, the formidable power of the Blood Demon Mothers was also shocking.
Apart from Shen Hao, the performances of most of the human Chosen Ones fell far behind these Blood Demons, especially the one controlling the Stone Man. It was impossible to locate it specifically, and being concentrated in such mountain ranges, even nuclear bombings might not resolve the issue!
This massive mountain range was a natural nuclear defense barrier!
Additionally, with a large number of front-line soldiers under threat, Shen Hao was right; the Blood Demons indeed were creating an environment that forced him to intervene, or else the Blood Demons really had a chance to break through, entering the north on a large scale!
However, Shen Hao naturally would not fear.
Since the Blood Demons had challenged him, he would meet it with absolute power!
The travel time was even openly released by him; all the soldiers retreating at the front line could see the countdown to his arrival on their personal terminals!
Some soldiers trembled with excitement.
Even someone like Paddy, an "old soldier," felt the same!
Although the power displayed by the Blood Demon Mothers was terrifying, in their hearts, Shen Hao was absolutely invincible!
"Three minutes! Three minutes!" Paddy screamed while frantically running.
He was not the only soldier like this.
At this moment, millions at the front line were calling for Shen Hao's arrival.
And the Blood Demon Mothers also closely monitored, anxiously aware.
"He's coming!"
"He's indeed coming!"
"The future of civilization depends on this battle!"
"It must be possible, the leader is Level 11! He's in the second stage of the Extraordinary Path!"
"Second Stage of the Purple Level Talent!"
"..."
Indeed, the Blood Demons had waited up to now for various preparations, but equally because they were waiting for their leader to cross this level!
According to the Civilization Trial's division of levels, Level 10 was a stage.
Level 11, already in the second stage of the Extraordinary Path!
Upon reaching this stage, their leader could even withstand nuclear attacks to some extent.
After all, his Talent was the Purple Epic "Earth King"!
Not only could he control the earth, but as long as he stood upon it, his power would continuously strengthen!
In addition, he was also aided by over fifty powerful mothers, indeed their strongest force!
"Two minutes!"
"One minute!"
As the countdown was about to reach its end, both the Blood Demons and humans tensed up at the same moment.
"Here it comes!"
Indeed, it had come. At the moment when the fighter jet had slowed to just supersonic speed, Shen Hao had already retracted the jet and was unrestrainedly unleashing his Thunder power. At this moment, thick bolts of lightning wildly snaked and twisted across the sky.
Then, at a certain instant, all the lightning converged and thundered towards the ground!
The massive sound of thunder even drowned out the noise of missile explosions!
Shen Hao, in such an invincible pose, powerfully declared his arrival!
All the front-line warriors erupted in a cheer like a mountain tsunami, with countless people excited to the point of reddened faces, even hysterical!
In their hearts, the arrival of the Savior meant that the war was about to embrace its final victory!
At this moment, Shen Hao, with a powerful force, initially blasted a few conspicuous Blood Demons, and then focused his gaze on the most evident Blood Demon!
"Hiding thousands of meters underground." he squinted, the map clearly marking out those dozens of Blood Demons deep underground, "The strength isn't bad, reached the job transfer stage? Is this your trump card? You think this can stop me?"
He descended with rolling thunder, Dominator pressure fully unleashed!
Those Stone Men, which even missiles hadn't completely destroyed, crumbled and scattered in this instant!
Because Shen Hao would not allow their existence!
The Sovereign does not merely dominate living beings.
"I dominate all things! The earth as well!"
Shen Hao spread his arms, a huge phantom appeared behind him, and the whole earth trembled, the Blood Demon Commander, known as the Earth King, terrifyingly realized that this stretch of earth was no longer under its control!
Infinite soil and rocks pressed towards them, seemingly eager to deliver this group of ants directly to the Sovereign!
It should be known that it was at Level 11! A strong being who had entered the second major stage of Transcendence, who could easily destroy a city single-handedly!
"Quick! Help me!" the Blood Demon Commander roared.
Actually, it didn't need to shout; the ten or so carefully chosen Blood Demon Mothers around it had already unleashed all their powers!
Some were auxiliary, crazily enhancing the Blood Demon Commander's power, some were defensive, raising barriers, fully blocking the earth's press, and even those controlling vibrations and sound waves, sending stunning ripples from underground, trying to disturb Shen Hao!
These Blood Demon Mothers were the weakest at Level 9, the strongest at Level 10! They were the strongest among the Blood Demons, each maintaining over a million subordinates for a long time!
However, it was useless!
Utterly ineffective!
All the force couldn't reach Shen Hao; they dissipated in smoke the moment they got close, and all resistance was equally futile!
How about the second major stage of Extraordinary Levels?
What about the Purple Epic Talent?
Before coming here, the Blood Demon Commander thought their chances of winning were greater, but at this very moment when they really faced Shen Hao, it finally confirmed—this was not simply Golden Legendary power!
"Myth! This is a myth!" The Blood Demon Commander roared fiercely, even hysterical to the extreme in this moment, "This is unfair! This is unfair! Merely a few thousand Chosen Ones! Why have a myth?"
It could not accept such a defeat! This completely unreasonable defeat!
But the truth was so, in front of a myth, what so-called advantage of a high stage level was utterly meaningless! Discover hidden content at empire
The meaning of myth is to break all rules!
Furthermore, Shen Hao had reached Level 10!
His talent was not entirely of Battle Type, but it also brought powerful aspects beyond battle, such as the speed of strength improvement, all resources within his body were digested at the fastest and perfect speed, if not for expecting a job transfer type plugin, he would have completed the job transfer early, reaching the Second Stage as well.
But now, it was enough.
"The Second Stage is indeed strong, but appearing before me, the outcome is already destined." Shen Hao indifferently watched the struggles of these few Blood Demon Mothers. His eyes, filled with starry light, reflected the demise of the Blood Demons.
And in this moment of getting even closer, all mothers lost their right to struggle, quickly escalating before Shen Hao.
However, when one of the Blood Demons trembled, spitting out a huge figure from its mouth, Shen Hao suddenly laughed.
Indeed, it was a nuclear weapon, already prepared in advance.
The countdown had precisely reached the final second!
Obviously, it had calculated the timing with its last shred of consciousness.
"Futile struggle."
Shen Hao vanished in an instant.
It was the Escape Talisman!
The next moment, a massive small sun lit up dazzlingly in the valley, the terrifying light and heat radiation and shock wave destroying everything around, even the soldiers who had escaped miles away turned back in horror, watching the rising giant mushroom cloud and the overwhelming waves rolling in.
For that moment, everyone's hearts tightened.
