My Monster Fuses Everything Chapter 249

Chapter 249: Chapter 228: Recapture of the Northern District

In the six camps, the strength of the Contractors left on guard duty was not that strong; the best one was perhaps only at the Second Order Low Grade, followed by several dozen Contractors responsible for combat, and then the civilians of the camp.

Speaking of civilians, of course, there were Contractors among them, but for various reasons, they simply did not have much fighting power.

It could be due to their personalities or their Talents that had kept them at the First Order Inferior.

Not every camp had their own scientific research capabilities like the Tree Domain and South City camps.

In fact, unless one abandoned the human form completely and transformed into a monster, gaining more power, overall strength did not increase so rapidly.

So the structure of the six camps was essentially similar.

Zhu Junhua and the other two leading separate teams. The strength of the Second-order Contractors initially had an edge; more importantly, the presence of Spiritual Energy rifles became the decisive factor in determining the outcome of the battle.

Lying in ambush quietly, launching sudden assaults, most of the guards were dealt with in a single encounter, followed by a rush to seize and control the situation.

The fear of firearms was almost etched into human instinct.

Once the guarding Contractors were subdued, the rest of the ordinary Contractors and civilians all behaved, controlled one by one, waiting for the arrival of personnel from the Tree Domain headquarters.

After a whole night of busyness, as people from the Tree Domain's main camp arrived, prisoners and spoils from various camps began to be brought back in succession.

More than 1,300 participating Contractors taken as hostages, a total of over 4,300 survivors from the six camps, were sent back in batches.

Apart from human resources, approximately 100 tons of food were seized, not much in quantity–only enough for the people of these six camps for a little over a month. It was a meager addition for the Tree Domain camp.

However, there was a pleasant surprise in terms of medical supplies; the quantity was not small–all from Yang Keqing's stockpile. More importantly, among the captured people, there was a large number of doctors and nurses; as long as there were no issues upon inspection, it would be a replenishment for the Tree Domain's hospital.

As Tree Domain logistics personnel rushed over in large numbers, Su Han naturally no longer needed to continue waiting here and flew back directly to the Tree Domain Camp with Zhao Yaqian.

In accordance with the trade agreement set earlier, Su Han called back ten First-level Intermediate Black Rock Tree Monsters to the camp.

From her own entourage, Zhao Yaqian selected ten people who had not yet formed Contracts from the reserve force of Southern City Guards. In the presence of Su Han, they killed the Black Rock Tree Monsters, completing the Contracts.

All ten people had undergone enhancement with medicinal potions. Although there were some complications during the Contracting process, and some individuals' constitutions fell somewhat short, manifesting severe pain and bleeding from the nose and mouth, there were no failures.

While the Contracts were being formed on one side, the assembly and teaching of the cannon production line had already started on the other, also situated within the firearms factory.

The projectile raw material ratio was mainly Spiritual Energy minerals or Crystal Mine Fruits, then combined with monster materials to trigger explosions.

However, compared to talk of Spiritual Energy bombs when a hundred Spiritual Energy minerals might yield only one bomb, it's clear that was a deception.

Two Spiritual Energy minerals for one cannonball–this ratio was significantly lower than merely ten or twenty percent.

Yet, judging by the current output of Spiritual Energy minerals, these were indeed precious items.

South City certainly had the capability to manufacture them, but given their production output, they probably could not spare much, so they could only serve as a reserve strategy.

The transaction had just completed when Zhao Yaqian immediately headed back to South City camp without stopping, even temporarily leaving the personnel trained to make cannons with Su Han, planning for Cheng Zhenyong or someone else to come over to take them back later.

She only took ten new recruits and rushed back; one reason was to attend to the construction of the South City camp and to close the development pace gap with the Tree Domain as much as possible.

The other, most important reason, was that she needed to break through to Third Order, and she intended to try immediately upon returning.

Having witnessed Su Han's Third Order Apostle single-handedly battling thousands, the terrifying poise was truly unforgettable.

Although she knew that Su Han's Third Order Apostle wouldn't be an ordinary one, if such power could be grasped by the South City camp, then more lives could be saved.

Zhao Yaqian's reaction was something Su Han was not too aware of, but even if he did know about it, he would deem it normal, after all, if there were no reaction after being stimulated, one wouldn't be human.

At the Tree Domain Camp, with the increase in the production of Crystal Mine Fruit, the ability to manufacture spiritual energy bullets and enhancement potions was further improved, and a large quantity of materials were sent to the front line.

With the personnel's rest and rapid reinforcement, as well as a plentiful supply of materials, the cleaning troops suddenly unleashed unimaginable combat power.

One monster after another was killed by spiritual energy rifles, the stronger monsters were fought and killed by a great number of Apostles.

One neighborhood after another was secured, and the boundary walls of the construction team kept extending, consuming the entire northern district of the city.

A massive number of Second-order Monsters rioted, but the Nine-Snake Mother Tree's vines had already joined the battle, and the combat power unleashed by the nine Vine Snakes nearly formed a crushing supremacy.

Not to mention, after Su Han returned, the Scorpion Spider Demon and the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon also joined the fight, and the cleaning speed instantly quickened by several folds.

It was precisely this surge of power that forced those lurking monsters, the fallen ones wanting to stir up troubles, out of their hiding, prompting them to start fleeing.

Zhu Xiong deliberately slowed the pace, causing a large number of monsters to be driven out of the northern district, and after two days of rest, the remaining monsters there were less than one-third of the original number.

Consequently, the cleaning troops, invigorated, managed to complete a rough sweep after another seven days.

The construction team, led by Zhang Dahai, immediately coordinated the operation, first blockading key intersections with small walls to prevent the driven monsters from returning.

As a result, although the walls were not entirely built yet, the northern district could be said to be preliminarily subdued.

As long as Zhang Dahai's construction team kept up with the progress and the patrol team continued to clear out monsters in their daily rounds, the northern district would become a completely safe zone.

Upon completing the preliminary recapture of the northern district, the population of the Tree Domain Camp finally saw a significant increase, the total number reaching over 30,000 people.

A portion came from captives from the Eastern City district, who, after review, were integrated into the camp's management, and a substantial part was from survivors who were rescued successively during the search and cleansing in the northern district.

The number seemed large, but compared to the thriving pre-apocalyptic state, it was barely one-tenth of what it had been, and the actual death rate was far more terrifying than that.

“The fog has stopped thinning out, visibility is around three hundred and fifty meters,” said Bai Qilan, “Based on the previous tidal experience, if the concentration increases again, it may bring about new interdimensional rifts.”

In the conference room of Summer Garden Mall, with the initial recovery of the northern district, the high-level leaders of Tree Domain were once again gathered to discuss the next plan.

Su Han sat in the seat of honor, the person speaking was Bai Qilan, who looked at everyone and said, “Moreover, according to the predictions made by Bai Qiuwen, Professor Tian Jiaxuan, and me, if the world of the interdimensional space is continuously getting closer to ours, then the changes brought about by the tide could be even more severe. We must be prepared.”
