Chapter 108: Chapter 107 Collective Action! (Seeking First Subscription!)

Translator: 549690339

The hunt on the evening of July 21st went more smoothly than the previous day, as his aircraft no longer needed to search for spatial channels but could directly transport him to his destination.

In addition, the spatial channels had become more densely distributed. The previous scarcity of one or two spatial channels within a few hundred kilometers had been replaced with a dozen within the same area.

Over the course of the night, he harvested a total of 66 yellow crystals, with most of his time spent traveling.

Upon returning to the Nanyuan base, he unusually didn't sleep, but sat cross-legged at home, pondering questions about Ming Yuwei in his mind.

From Ming Yuwei's experiences, he could draw a conclusion: evil gods had set their sights on him, transitioning from the Dark God to the Light God.

Concurrently, he began to consider what he had and how he might confront evil gods should he encounter them in the future.

He was an Ancient God, he had power, he needed only ten thousand units of source energy to grow by one meter, and each increase brought along with it an increase in his abilities.

After much contemplation, Du Gang decided to temporarily conceal some of his strength.

Transformation wasn't just about maximizing one's size. Even though he had already reached the 145 -meter level, he could choose to transform into a 100-meter entity or a 50-meter entity. As long as he did not exceed the 145-meter limit, he could transform at will.

“For the time being, I'll reveal a level of 1/+5 meters, pretending to be stuck at a bottleneck. Then, I'll try my best to collect more red crystals to enhance my strength.”

He understood that he was bound to face off against the evil gods from another realm in the future, and when that time comes, he will bite off a chunk of their flesh.

After figuring everything out, he finally drifted off to sleep.

By the afternoon of July 22nd, by the time he awakened, messengers from other bases had already arrived.

“God of War, several times more spatial channels appeared yesterday than before. I wonder if you…”

These envoys had all brought plenty of red crystals, hoping to conduct more transactions.

He nodded and said, “Three yellow crystals per base. Have you brought enough red crystals?”

“Yes, yes, yes-!”

All the envoys present were overjoyed at his response and eagerly agreed.

Each of them had brought about a hundred thousand red crystals, in anticipation that Du Gang might hunt more dinosaurs. They were delighted to find that they had made the right decision.

Soon, he had traded with everyone, exchanging 60 yellow crystals for 600 thousand red crystals in return.

After their departure, Wang Dezhen's envoy delivered the remaining one hundred thousand red crystals that were owed.

At this point, Du Gang had accumulated 700 thousand red crystals.

“Du Gang, I wonder if you have any surplus yellow crystals…”

After delivering the red crystals, Wang Dezhen did not leave but stared at him expectantly.

Du Gang nodded, smiled and said, “Six yellow crystals for sixty thousand red crystals. When can you deliver?”

“One day!”

Wang Dezhen exclaimed excitedly: “We've exchanged twelve yellow crystals in total, which has increased our number of superpowered individuals of the Yellow Grade by twelve. With the speed they're hunting at now, plus the original quantity, we should be able to replenish in one day…”

Du Gang threw the six yellow crystals in his hand directly to him, saying: “Fine, then pay first to speed up your hunting team…”

Seven hundred thousand red crystals had given Du Gang an additional increase of 1.5 million units of source energy.

This meant that he could directly enhance his battle level from 145 meters to 295 meters!

However, he didn't upgrade his power, instead choosing to store the source energy.

Yesterday, when no one was around, he had asked Wang Dezhen about the news of the hundred thousand-meter giant.

Wang Dezhen didn't hide anything and told him about his promotion and the disappearance of the giant's internal energy.

Therefore, he also understood his relationship with the giant.

The reason he could grow so quickly, so tall, and so simply for each unit of source energy was that the hundred thousand-meter-level giant provided him with energy.

The source energy was only required for the opening of special transmission channels!

It was clear that once he drained the giant's energy and reached the hundred thousand-meter grade, advancing further would become increasingly difficult. He didn't know what to do then, but he did not want to waste time thinking about it now.

Although he was only third rank currently, his strength was not the same as that of regular superpowered Yellow Grade individuals, his power was much stronger!

As to how much stronger he was, he didn't know; no creatures above the green level had appeared on Earth yet.

“I can harvest about 1.5 million source energy in a day…”

“In at most four or five days, I should be able to advance to the fourth rank, right?!”

Du Gang was secretly delighted. The stronger he was, the greater his potential to resist the evil gods in the future.

“However, I can't completely refrain from increasing my strength…”

After careful thought, he realized that keeping his strength completely static was akin to burying his head in the sand. It was too risky, and could easily be discovered.

Therefore, he believed that it would be better to increase his strength by a bit.

Eventually, he decided to take one-tenth of the source energy he acquired each day for boosting his strength, leaving the rest untouched.

Fearing that the evil gods would monitor the state of the energy inside the underground giant, he chose this more stable method to conceal his strength.

After planning his future path, Du Gang didn't remain idle during the daytime but instead went to the Divine Mystery Camp to practice boxing.

July 27th.

“Du Gang, repeat that one more time. I want to see!”

Wang Hu looked at Du Gang in disbelief. He could not believe that Du Gang had so easily executed the boxing technique he had taken over half a year to master. Judging from Du Gang's level of proficiency, it seemed like it had become his second nature!

Upon seeing this, Du Gang quickly performed all the boxing techniques in sequence. This time, he didn't strictly follow the steps from beginning to end, but instead changed his moves spontaneously and performed them out of order.

After watching Du Gang, who had completed the entire set of boxing techniques purely on instinct, Wang Hu was completely stunned. He froze for more than ten seconds before he regained his senses.

“Sigh!”

He sighed and said, “Times have changed, perhaps it's now easier to master these techniques!”

He still couldn't believe that Du Gang's talent was so powerful, having accomplished in five to six days, practicing three to four hours a day, what he had struggled day and night for half a year to achieve.

After adjusting his mindset, Wang Hu started, “Since you've mastered the way of exerting force and the basic steps, let me explain to you about strength.”

“Strength is divided into obvious strength, hidden strength, and transformed strength. Many martial artists and even Dao practitioners in our country have these three classifications of strength. Some are the same, and some are different… ”

“Those kinds of strength that are related to Yin-Yang or heaven and earth, I don't understand, and those who do might have died in this disaster…”

“The strengths I'm talking about are the ones that your body can actually practice and feel!”

“Obvious strength, in my understanding, is an open and straightforward power!”

“For example, when you punch, the force you use is obvious strength!” “Hidden strength refers to the power that is hidden, like this.”

Wang Hu suddenly put his hand on Du Gang's shoulder and said, “Observe carefully and feel it for yourself!”

Hearing this, Du Gang immediately focused on him.

“Here I go!”

Suddenly, a force emanated from his hand, rushing towards his shoulder!

Du Gang was surprised to find that Wang Hu hadn't moved at all, not even his hand on his shoulder, but he could clearly feel a force pushing his shoulder.

“How did you do that?”

Wang Hu released his hand and grinned, “This is called hidden strength. Before I could actually use it, I thought it was all nonsense, but in the end, I really did master it…”

“With hidden strength, you can control the power in your body without moving at all, just like I showed you…”

“The main purpose of this is to catch your enemy off guard. For instance, after you throw a punch with obvious strength, in the instant your opponent catches it, you can hit him with hidden strength…

“Ahem, for now, I primarily use it to deceive people…”

Du Gang nodded and asked, “How about the last one, transformed strength?”

Wang Hu chuckled, “Transformed strength, I don't understand. I've never been able to master it. I don't know what it's like… I think the famous Master Ma, if he were still around, might…”

After a pause, Du Gang looked puzzled and asked, “That's it?”

Wang Hu nodded, “That's it!” “Huh?”

Du Gang was stunned. Is that all?

Wang Hu grinned, “These things are actually basic, with a lot of practice, you will always learn…”

“Do you think I only teach this as an instructor?”

“Actually, back in the day, our daily training was mainly focused on improving physical fitness. We didn't practice technical skills like these much…”

Du Gang nodded in understanding. Indeed, in the military, enhancing physical fitness gives the highest return; furthermore, they also have to master a vast range of modern weapons, so how could they have time to focus on martial arts techniques? They weren't living in ancient times where soldiers could engage in hand-to-hand combat.

“Alright, there's nothing more I can teach you. You can figure out the rest on your own!”

“Thank you, Instructor Wang!”

Du Gang thanked him. He didn't know if hidden strength would be useful, but mastering the various fist techniques would be beneficial for him. At the very least, he now understood the basic principles of fighting and had learned many ways of exerting force.

Just then, a soldier came looking for him. “War God, the commander wants to see you!”

“Lead the way!”

When he arrived at the command center, the scene was even busier. Apart from the people from Nanyuan, there were also more than thirty envoys from other bases.

Seeing him walk in, the lively and noisy command center suddenly quieted down. These newly arrived envoys all started curiously sizing up Du Gang.

Wang Dezhen smiled and said, “Du Gang, you're here. These are the representatives who are planning to join us in the march on South Harbour City…”

“Finally, they came!”

Du Gang had been waiting impatiently these past few days as he hunted dinosaurs at night and practiced martial arts during the day.

“We have finished our discussions. Tonight at 19:00, we will gather at a location 20 kilometers outside South Harbour City…”

“Only yellow-grade and orange-grade superpowered beings will be assigned to the assassination mission…”

“At that time, other superpowered beings will be responsible for dealing with the patrolling guards and superpowered beings within South Harbour City…”

“Du Gang, Ming Yuwei is your responsibility, all right?”

The tactics were straightforward. All the bases were to send their people, at the latest by 19:00, to gather at a location 20 kilometers outside South Harbour City. They would reach South Harbour City by foot before dark at 20:00.

After sneaking into the city under the cover of darkness, the other superpowered beings would deal with the regular ones, and Du Gang would handle Ming Yuwei.

Those bases that were far away had already set out. The reason these people had come here was not only to discuss these matters, but mainly to trade yellow crystals with Du Gang.

The representatives from the bases that came earlier had already received yellow crystals, causing panic among the bases that only had peak orange-level superpowered beings. They all sent representatives in quick succession, but their news came a bit slow; it had already been four to five days.

Motivated by the chance of working with Du Gang, these thirty odd people came to Nanyuan for the first time.

Du Gang perfectly understood their intentions.

With each additional collaborator, he would gain another source of red crystals. This meant that Du Gang could continue hunting dinosaurs without worrying about being unable to sell the yellow crystals.

Wang Dezhen had no objections. The amount of yellow crystals Du Gang brought back from his hunts was immense, and Nanyuan alone couldn't process it all. Distributing some to other bases was also helping humanity.

Furthermore, the number of yellow crystals Du Gang gave to Nanyuan was the maximum quantity, which was very generous on his part.

Having seen that they all agreed and established a cooperative relationship, Wang Dezhen started, “Du Gang, some bases have already sent people, you should get going as well…”

“Okay!”

Very soon, Du Gang arrived at the mountaintop airport where all the representatives from Nanyuan had assembled.

In addition to King Kong, there were two yellow-grade warriors. He recognized one of them as Shadow King, who he met before. His superpower was extremely useful for reconnaissance!

The other superpowered being was carrying two unusually long sniper rifles on his back.

'My name is Sniper King. My awakened abilities are Eagle Eye and Ballistic Control. I can also enchant my bullets to increase their destructive power…” Sniper King, who came up with such a lame nickname!

Du Gang silently criticized, then smiled and said, “Nice to meet you, Sniper

King. I'm Du Gang!”

“Sniper King laughed, “By that time, I will provide support from the sky. My bullets can reach beyond ten thousand meters. Except for Yellow Level enemies, anyone at Orange Level and below will fall to one bullet!”

Such bold speech!

The four of them quickly boarded the plane.

Although their numbers were few, their strength was not insignificant. Apart from Du Gang, the other three were Yellow Level Superpowered.

Some other bases didn't even have Yellow Level individuals.

It could be said that the strength dispatched by their Nanyuan base for this joint mission was the most potent.

On the evening of July 27th at 19:00.

Du Gang and his group arrived at the predetermined assembly point smoothly. The fighters from the other bases were already in position. Roughly counting, there were five to six hundred people, all at least Orange Level at peak strength.

“You only have four people?”

Superpowered from other bases, looking at Du Gang and the others coming down from the plane, frowned and asked.

This sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention. They actually knew these people were from Nanyuan.

After the apocalypse, the Nanyuan base was perhaps the most famous among all survivors' bases, because the God of War was there!

There were always people who were discontented with such circumstances.

No one stepped forward, everyone kept silent, eager to see how the people from Nanyuan base would respond.

“Shadow King, one of the Eight Kings of Nanyuan, Yellow Level, Fourth Rank!” “Sniper King, one of the Eight Kings of Nanyuan, Yellow Level, Fourth Rank!” Three Yellow Level Fourth Rank strongmen stunned everyone at once.

It should be noted that among those in the field, only a few bases had Yellow Level warriors who had traded with Du Gang before. The majority of the people were merely at the peak of the Orange Level.

Du Gang glanced at the man who was taunting him and chuckled, “The Yellow

Crystal you used to upgrade should be exchanged from your base….”

The man's face changed abruptly. He didn't even get a chance to say anything when Du Gang simply said, “Du Gang, also known as the God of War, If I take action, none of you here will survive!”

The calm tone held unquestionable authority.

A domineering aura spread out instantly.

Everyone present fell silent.

Some acknowledged Du Gang's strength, while others had never seen him and were only familiar with rumors of his power.

But at this moment, all of these people kept quiet.

Who was daring enough to claim that, in front of the nation's elites, the strongest batch of people, that he alone could slaughter them all?!! At least the man standing in front of Du Gang, provoking him, did not dare to!

He stepped aside and said, 'God of War, you have a big tone. We are here on a mission, not for a contest. However, I hope that in the upcoming fight, you can play your part and let me see if you are really so capable!”

He had been quite polite. He had always looked down on others through his nostrils. If it were not for Du Gang's great renown, he really wanted to challenge him face to face.

“Alright, everyone, I don't want to engage in verbal sparring with you. You will get a taste of my strength soon. For now, let's put a stop to this. Our mission is the priority. Let's move!”

As Du Gang gracefully stepped down, nobody was foolish enough to challenge him there and then. Everyone nodded and started their activity.

In total, over forty combined bases and more than five hundred Superpowered began running silently.

Inside South Harbor City.

Ming Yuwei had been restless since noon, her eyelid was twitching constantly, giving her an ominous feeling.

“What's going on? Could it be that the beetles will breach the line?”

With this thought, she quickly ordered her subordinate to prepare another set of offerings to supplicate the deity.

Coming to the secret room, after a series of devout prayers, the black fog representing the God of Light appeared once more. “Thank you, God of Light, for your visit….”

“My God, I have an ominous feeling…..”

Inside the moon, Nalan Hongvven frowned, “I'm not a fortune teller? How would I know?!!”

Of course, he didn't say that, instead calming her, “My servant, I'll protect you…..”

With that said, Ming Yuwei finally breathed a sigh of relief, kissed the earth and respectfully departed.

After the ceremony, Nalan Hongwen furrowed his brows.

Superpowered at the Seven-Colored Blue Level or Purple Level could usually sense dangerous situations in advance.

But Ming Yuwei, who was only at the Seven-Colored Yellow Level, how could she sense anything?

that the sense must be very strong. She's really in danger!”

Nalan Hongwen quickly judged that Ming Yuwei might be in danger. When he wanted to do something, he found that he could do nothing!

He couldn't monitor the Earth!

He couldn't know about the situation outside!

“Life detection!”

He suddenly remembered the low-grade detection equipment that came with the incubator and quickly activated it.

“Oh crap!”

After careful investigation, he finally determined that there was a large group of living entities outside South Harbor City, approaching the city at high speed. “Damn it, is someone trying to destroy Ming Yuwei?”

Nalan Hongwen was dumbfounded, he didn't understand why this woman, living her life well, has stirred up so many people.

“What should I do?”

In an instant, he had considered countless plans in his mind.

The idea of abandoning Ming Yuwei was discarded as soon as it came up. This woman was a crucial part of his body-snatching plan, and he couldn't afford to abandon her.

Fly over in a spaceship?

No way!

He shook his head. For primitive planets like this, home to living individuals, the Cosmic Civilization Protection Association usually left corresponding sensors.

If his alien spaceship were to enter, the personnel of the Cosmic Civilization Protection Association would inevitably detect it!

“Damn it, if only it was another ten or twenty thousand years from now, there wouldn't be so many issues!”

The solar system is only ten light-years away from falling into the Realm of Silence. Given its current speed of 230 kilometers per second, it would enter in ten or twenty thousand years. By then, no one would care about the survival of the primitive beings here.

The main reason he dared to plot against Earth under the watchful eyes of the Cosmic Civilization Protection Association was that the solar system was located in this desolate star field.

“Should I take the risk and go?”

He shook his head again, he couldn't take the risk.

If he stayed on the moon and planned slowly, he might have about five years. But if he flew straight there, he might be dead in the next second.

You must know, the spaceships owned by the Cosmic Civilization Association are far more advanced than his.

After deep thought, he eventually dialed his mother's number. Soon, the beautiful young woman that appeared before appears again. “Can you get me another Possession Transponder?”

Nalan Yanran frowned: “What do you mean, you've used up the one I gave you before?”

Nalan Hongwen bitterly replied, “Not yet, but it will be soon!”

He quickly explained the situation Ming Yuwei was facing.

“Can't you just find another woman .

“No, this woman meets the requirements of the body-snatching plan it's too difficult to find another one as suitable as her .

Nalan Yanran fell silent.

She didn't have high hopes for this body-snatching plan.

Information from unknown advanced civilizations like this is bound to have ulterior motives. Once involved, the outcome could be disastrous.

But there was no other wav, as Nalan Honzwen was her son. No other options!

Nalan Yanran thought for a while before slowly saying: “I understand, I will try to get it for you … I hope you can speed things up. I have already spent a great deal of money from two of our planets. If our actions are exposed, not only could you die, but I would also be severely punished …”

If Nalan Hongwen could breakthrough to the Meteorite Level before his death, then her unauthorized use of a large amount of family funding wouldn't be a problem.

While the Meteorite Level is insignificant in the endless cosmos, considered only the first step in the world of the universe, in these desolate star fields, it's a symbol of power, with each individual capable of suppressing an entire planet!

Du Gang and the others rushed through the dense forest. Among those present, the lowest level was the peak Orange Level, all of which are primarily battle Superpowered.

As for the dense Black Beetles under their feet, they all chose to ignore them and swiftly moved on.

Only occasionally would a golden beetle appear, warranting a moment's evasion from their ballistic attacks.

Quickly, they arrived on the outskirts of South Harbour City before nightfall.

The Shadow King stepped forward and whispered, “Those with stealth powers, follow me, take down the patrolling guards, the rest wait a moment. The cry of the cuckoo will be the signal…”

Soon, he took dozens of stealthy Superpowered individuals and quietly entered South Harbour City.

There weren't many guards here, and it would be more accurate to call them surveillance personnel, dedicated to monitoring the movements of the bugs.

The people here have never contemplated an invasion by other humans.

Even though they've committed a great number of inhumane deeds, they never imagined they would be attacked.

In their eyes, during the end of the world, everyone is too occupied with their own survival to cross such a long distance to attack a powerful base force.

“Thump, thump, thump!”

A series of throat-slitting sounds rang out, and all the guards on the periphery were smoothly taken out.

The Shadow King looked at a piece of charcoal-like sausage shaped object placed in one of the guard rooms, frowning deeply.

“Cuckoo, Cuckoo!”

He didn't waste time, quickly notifying the Superpowered individuals outside.

Soon, the assassins hidden in the forest had also arrived.

“The palace ahead is where Ming Yuwei is staying, the War God will handle it there, the rest of us will take down all the resolute factions in the city Soon, the group divided into several waves, leaving in different directions.

Only Du Gang, alone, headed towards the palace.

It was nearing evening, and there was practically no one on the city streets; most of the residences were staying at home.

Despite not transforming into a giant, Du Gang's physical constitution remained formidable, moving swiftly. Within a few seconds, he had reached the roof of the palace.

He lifted a tile and looked inside. A gleaming and golden majestic throne was on display in the palace, but there was no one inside.

He briefly scrutinized his surroundings, quickly noticing a brightly lit palace in the distance.

“Tap!”

Du Gang lightly hopped back down to the ground and quietly approached the lit palace in the distance.

Upon reaching the front of the palace, he extended his finger and gently poked a small hole through the paper window. He squinted one eye, bringing the other close to the hole.

At this moment, he missed the days when Chu Zixuan was by his side. If he had psychic power detection abilities, he wouldn't have to resort to such stealthy and uncertain methods.

“Who's there?”

Before Du Gang had a chance to discern the details inside, a sharp shout rang out..
