My Monster Fuses Everything Chapter 275

Chapter 275: Chapter 249: Changes in South City

Su Han's heart skipped a beat, but the monsters had already attacked, surrounding them completely.

His gaze turned icy, and immediately, the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon unleashed its raging Blood River, while the Evil Crocodile Prison activated, and the Evil Crocodiles Legion, like a black iron army, swept across.

This alien island was larger than the spaces at the Third Hospital and the pharmaceutical factory, and the attacking monsters were more numerous. However, Su Han's attention had already been captured elsewhere, and he did not want to be delayed by these creatures.

The Scorpion Spider Demon charged into the fray. Although it brought little metal, its metal spear pierced through one monster after another.

The Coagulation Cannon kept firing, and Metal Erosion also transformed the monsters one by one into iron slaves.

Although it wasn't as pervasive as the blood erosion from the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon, it was enough to make the monsters slaughter each other.

“Whoosh”

The Sea of Spiritual Energy Blood churned, and after a few large waves surged, a Colossal Serpent Rising more than ten meters tall emerged from the coast.

Its entire body was crimson, its claws as sharp as knives, and it had several twisted octopus tentacles on its back–clearly, it was an exotic Blood Inferior Demon–an Inferior Demon with Claws.

Upon its appearance, it charged towards the Scorpion Spider Demon, its eyes emanating a brutal crimson light, evidently of the Intermediate Third Order strength.

On the other side, the surface of the Sea of Spiritual Energy Blood was also tumultuous, and in an instant, a taller than seven-meters humanoid monster with wings on its back and a hunched body surfaced. Spikes along its spine formed a roughly four-meter-long bony tail that swung like a flail.

As soon as the Winged Demon Ghoul appeared, it dived towards the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon, trying to eliminate Su Han and the Apostles in one swoop.

Su Han snorted coldly. The Black Water Cannon in the mouth of the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon surged, and a jet of black water attacked, piercing through the flesh wings of the Winged Demon Ghoul.

The Winged Demon Ghoul crashed to the ground, already enveloped by the oncoming Blood River, which invaded its limbs and subdued it.

Had it not been for its Third Order strength, Su Han would have wanted to spare its life, as the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon would have bitten off its head otherwise.

On the other side, the Scorpion Spider Demon broke through the encirclement of the monsters and collided with the Claw Blood Inferior Demon, initiating a fierce battle that crushed the surrounding monsters.

The attacks of the Claw Blood Inferior Demon landed on the Scorpion Spider Demon, creating clanging sounds. Its attacks completely failed to penetrate the defenses of the Floating Pagoda Black Armor.

Just as the Claw Blood Inferior Demon tried to attack with the tentacles on its back, a squelch sounded, and a metal spear had already pierced its body.

The Scorpion Spider Demon grabbed its head with both hands and slammed it onto the ground.

Its four arms swung down several iron fists, breaking its bones, while metal spears in the air continuously shot over, piercing the Claw Blood Inferior Demon's limbs and then continuously deformed, forming shackles that bound it.

There was inherently a gap in comprehensive strength between the Intermediate Third Order and the Superior Third Order. If one had more methods, perhaps it could compensate.

But compared to the Scorpion Spider Demon, the Claw Blood Inferior Demon had no advantages whatsoever.

After the two Third Order Monsters were subdued, the remaining tens of thousands of Inferior Demons and Corpse Ghosts could not resist for long and were quickly slain.

The vines of the Nine-Snake Mother Tree extended in, dragging the corpses of the monsters and also protecting the surroundings.

“Is the border of the alien space getting closer, or was this space always this large?”

Su Han frowned, looking at the distant, vaguely visible barrier and the island within the barrier, pondering deeply.

Previously, the alien space rifts at the Third Hospital and the pharmaceutical factory never presented this scene.

Certainly, one important reason was the powerful erosive power above the Sea of Spiritual Energy Blood. Even if Blood-winged Tigers were sent for aerial reconnaissance, only travels of a few hundred to a thousand meters were possible before they were twisted into monsters and lost control.

To explore, one had to withstand such erosion.

Neither Second Order nor Third Order creatures were likely to withstand such strong erosion, considering both the journey and the return.

No one knew what the boundary might hold, and any sudden accidents in such situations, with no extra power to withstand, were extremely dangerous.

Moreover, such a clear boundary and alien island had not appeared before, so naturally, the idea of exploration was put on hold.

But now, Su Han felt it was necessary to explore. If the alien space rifts, islands, and the Sea of Spiritual Energy Blood were interrelated and could be explored, it would be crucial in unveiling the secrets of both the alien world and the apocalypse.

“The Fourth Order strength of the Blood-Erosion Alligator Dragon, or perhaps a fourth Apostle, to find creatures that can resist the erosion of the Blood Sea?”

Countless thoughts raced through Su Han's mind, and he had already calculated the need to address the erosion of the Blood Sea, which ultimately involved enhancing strength.

But there was another point, that of fusing with the Blood Sea. Previously at Third Order, fusion resulted in erosion, and even when slightly separated, this erosion persisted, albeit slightly weaker, but still accumulative.

However, now, the Fourth Order Nine-Snake Mother Tree had already proven during the previous exploration that its ability to resist erosion had greatly increased, and it might well be capable of merging with the seawater of the Spiritual Energy Blood Sea.

Both methods could be tried, but not yet.

Only one alien space rift had been subdued, and there was another boundary in the south of the city that Su Han worried he might be late to address if the people of the Southern City Camp interfered, which would not be ideal.

Moreover, he wanted to see if this other alien space rift presented the same situation.

Su Han emerged from the alien space rift, and a Vine Snake from the Nine-Snake Mother Tree had already been summoned by him.

Although this might slightly weaken the defenses of the Tree Domain Camp, this rift could not be overlooked.

“Hmm?”

Su Han was about to head towards the south of the city when he suddenly felt a fluctuation in Bai Qilan's psychic link.

With Bai Qilan now a Third Order, the range of her psychic link was not just around the Tree Domain. As long as she exerted her full power, she could reach across the city.

Su Han tuned in and heard Bai Qilan's voice, “Something has happened in the south of the city, Zhao Yaqian is asking for help, and the price is the Southern City Camp.”

In the Southern City Camp, the surrounding three streets were severely damaged, with monsters continuously roaming around, numbering in the tens of thousands, steadily devouring the bodies of other monsters on the ground.

Among these corpses, there were actually quite a few human remains.

After the Tree Domain had sent a message to South City Camp, South City Camp had tightened its defenses and heightened its vigilance.

Two days later, South City Camp began to notice groups of monsters gathering nearby, and engineer insects appeared.

They led a massive number of monsters in attacks, plunging the entire defense district into a battle resembling a meat grinder.

Among the monsters, those of the Second Order and above were not many, so crossbow arrows, spiritual energy rifles, and bombs were still able to form a solid defense.

A large number of monsters were killed by South City Camp, and under the leadership of Zhao Yaqian and Duan Jie, the defense line was extremely stable.

However, as the monsters continued to attack, one day, two days… even if they were just ordinary monsters, the continuous attacks drained a substantial amount of resources from South City Camp, especially the spiritual energy rifles.

With the anomaly of the dimensional storm, the spiritual energy mine could not be effectively replenished, and the first to be exhausted were the spiritual energy weapons.

As the spiritual energy rifles became unusable, a large number of Second Order monsters joined the battlefield, and South City's first street defense line failed.

The second defense line was activated, with Zhao Yaqian, Duan Jie, and other high-order team leaders taking point, and other members providing support, they began the assault battle.

In just two days, the casualty rate of the Southern City Guards rose rapidly, forcing them to withdraw from the defense line and initiate the Fire Ring plan.

The fire spread across the original defense circle, temporarily stopping the advance, finally giving South City Camp a chance to breathe.

But even more severe circumstances were soon to follow, as the figure of a Third Order Holy Helmet Beetle had already been lurking on the periphery.

This feeling, it wasn't merely about exterminating them, but hunting, exhausting the prey physically and mentally until they were unable to resist, then capturing them alive.

In such circumstances, South City had already armed all personnel, not just the Southern City Guards, but even Contracters were required to be battle-ready.

Meanwhile, at a high-level meeting in South City Camp, the atmosphere was tense.

“Let's ask Tree Domain for help, we have a covenant, to help each other,” said Officer Li. “Right now, only they can help us.”

Wang Hu frowned deeply, and immediately suggested this to Li Ruikang, as the current situation no longer allowed him to concern himself with hierarchy issues.

“We are under siege by monsters, and the Tree Domain is likely in more serious trouble, with both their north and east districts requiring defenses.”

Guo Wutao maintained a composed face, as South City Camp was in crisis, but the Tree Domain might not really be able to spare any help.

He said gravely, “And who can get out?”

Outside, monsters hidden in the fog numbered in the tens of thousands, including Second and even Third Orders, who had the capability of breaking through?

Everyone naturally turned their gaze to Duan Jie and Zhao Yaqian, instinctively thinking of only the two of them.

Zhao Yaqian was a Third Order Apostle at full strength, while Duan Jie had broken through to the Third Order and had killed a Third Order Double-headed Gray Inferior Demon after suppressing a dimensional rift, now also having two Lower Tier Third Order Apostles.

They did have a chance to break through.

Zhao Yaqian's expression was complex, and Duan Jie took over the conversation, “I can break through to send the message, but…”

Before he could finish, if Duan Jie left, then gaping holes would appear in the defense line, requiring many more Southern City Guards to step up, at great cost, and possibly becoming a breach point.

“To help each other, that's when the circumstances are the same and the cost of help is not great.”

Li Ruikang interrupted everyone, his demeanor calm, but with furrowed brows, he said, “Indeed, Su Han might be able to save us, but we don't have that bargaining chip.”

Yan Tiejun frowned, and Guo Wutao's face also fell, both acutely aware of something.

“We must admit one thing, in such an apocalypse, we haven't been able to protect everyone sufficiently, at least not as well as Tree Domain.”

Li Ruikang raised his eyes, looking towards everyone, Wang Hu and Duan Jie's expressions changed, and even Zhao Yaqian looked at Li Ruikang in surprise.

However, seeing everyone's reaction, Li Ruikang instead smiled and said, “Prepare for evacuation, make an all-out effort to clear the subway tunnel, and try to evacuate everyone, we will cover the retreat.”

The subway tunnel plan was the ultimate evacuation strategy, if the camp couldn't hold, then through the subway tunnels to relocate the population.

But moving them required a new base, which was previously planned as the second camp.

But now, without being prepared, what Li Ruikang meant was clear, he was surrendering everything in South City to Tree Domain.

The meeting was silent for a long time, until Yan Tiejun spoke first, “That might be for the best, though it feels like that of a deserter, passing our responsibility to others.”

Protecting the people should have been their responsibility.

Admittedly, some middle managers might not see it that way, cherishing the power in their hands, but at least for Li Ruikang, Guo Wutao, and him, their intention was to take on this responsibility, even though they hadn't managed to do so.

“Sometimes we must admit inadequacies, at least we gathered many survivors from the south district.”

Li Ruikang looked at everyone and said, “Everyone go prepare, Yaqian, you stay.”

The others were momentarily stunned, then slowly rose to their feet, while Zhao Yaqian remained seated, her thoughts becoming increasingly complex.

“Yaqian, earlier you mentioned there was still some connection between Spirituals…”

Before Li Ruikang could finish his sentence, Zhao Yaqian's voice interrupted him: “I have already asked Tree Domain for help, at the cost of South City Camp.”

Li Ruikang, Guo Wutao, and Yan Tiejun all froze, stunned by Zhao Yaqian's words.

“Hahaha”

After a long shock, Li Ruikang suddenly burst into laughter, “This time you were more decisive than me, share your thoughts.”
