My Monster Fuses Everything Chapter 372

Chapter 372: Chapter 299 Salamander Dragon_2

The Salamander Dragon sensed the incoming attack, its gaze turning as it suddenly plunged into the water with all the Blood Salamanders.

In the water, the motions of the Salamander Dragon were especially nimble, and the water itself seemed to swirl around it subtly. With a burst of movement, spray flew and in the blink of an eye, it had vanished, the attacks following in its wake disappearing into the froth.

Splash

At that moment, the Salamander Dragon swiftly cut through the water and burst forth from the surface, its form rapidly closing in on the Winged Demon Ghoul gliding through the low sky.

Not good!

Ye Kailing's face suddenly paled as she immediately maneuvered her Angel Envoys to evade, but clearly, the Salamander Dragon had been ready for some time, its sharp claws extended with blades of water.

Just one swipe and the Winged Demon Ghoul, attempting to flee, sustained a massive wound on its chest as blood splattered forth, with its breastbone nearly cleaved in two.

The Sheath Wing Grudge Tiger came rushing in a flash, its wings slashing through the air with a dark glow, striking the Salamander Dragon, causing ripples like waves to appear on its tough skin and forcibly driving it back.

“Draw it out first!”

Ye Kailing immediately called back her three Angel Envoys and whispered to Guo Gang.

“Okay.”

“Be careful in a bit, that beast has another layer of something on it.”

Guo Gang's face had now taken on an even graver look. Although it was just one strike, it was obvious that his attacks were not very effective against the Salamander Dragon.

If this headed to shore, it would surely be a fierce battle.

Zhu Xiong's expression was gloomy as he said, “I'm afraid we can't fight it.”

Everyone followed his gaze to see the Salamander Dragon, which should have been raging, now surprisingly remaining in the middle of the water reservoir. Its eyes glowed red, staring intently at Zhu Xiong and the others, but it showed no interest in coming ashore.

Simple lure tactics were utterly ineffective against it, or perhaps as an Evolved Kind, it could see through what Ye Kailing and the others were planning.

“Ying!”

Blood Salamanders continuously surfaced from the water as the Salamander Dragon let out an even more piercing screech. The water's surface vibrated continuously, turning red for nearly a kilometer around them before towering waves surged towards the shore.

The wave, a hundred meters in height, emerged in an instant, swallowing the shallow tide flats and racing directly towards Zhu Xiong and the others.

“Run!”

Zhu Xiong's expression changed drastically. He threw up a massive Energy Shield some thirty meters wide in front of everyone.

Seeing this, Ye Kailing also reacted at once, materializing Spiritual Energy Chains and interweaving them behind the Shield, relying on each other for obstruction.

Boom

The majestic waves broke against the shield, the Spiritual Power of the Salamander Dragon and its kind shattering the incredibly sturdy Energy Shield to bits. Even with the aid of Ye Kailing's Spiritual Energy Chains, it only held for a moment longer.

The next instant, the arm-thick Spiritual Energy Chains began to fracture continually as the waves slammed into the shore.

Mud slid, stones crumbled, resembling nothing less than a mountain flood bursting forth, terrifyingly fierce.

Zhu Xiong and the others didn't hesitate for a moment upon acting, fleeing desperately from the spot.

The three of them, along with the nine Angel Envoys, unleashed their full strength to flee the site, but even so, they were still caught by the large waves that churned up, soaking their bodies with mud and making a sorry sight.

Surrounded by peril, Zhu Xiong looked back to see the water reservoir churning with waves, but in the midst of the surge, the eyes of the Salamander Dragon were still cold, its majestic form unchanged.

“We can't handle this.”

Guo Gang wiped the mud from his face and said with a heavy voice.

“That creature is hiding in the reservoir and won't come out; we have no way to exhaust it in the water.”

Not only were their monsters not aquatic creatures, but even if they were, it was likely they would be at a disadvantage in water control capabilities against such an Evolved Kind.

Should they really engage underwater, they might end up getting suppressed and hammered down under the surface.

And it wasn't just the Salamander Dragon in the water; there were also many large and small Blood Salamanders. The attack just now was a joint effort from them all.

Going into the water would also mean being surrounded and attacked, which was the most difficult part.

“If we can't fish it out, then we can always drain the pond, right?”

Zhu Xiong spit out a mouthful of mud, his dark eyes sweeping over the reservoir.

Guo Gang and Ye Kailing both glanced at Zhu Xiong, expressionless.

Zhu Xiong immediately forced a couple of dry laughs, “Just joking, call over Rock 'n Roll, only he can handle this.”

They had come for the water in the reservoir, and if they drained it, not to mention the time it would take and the serious flooding it would cause to empty the reservoir, just the act of draining it would mean losing its strategic value.

Other than the survivors, this Sanli Town had only the function of its farmlands, and after the flood discharge, not even farming could be done, it would just become a vast ocean.

“Let's fall back to Sanli Town first, and I'll notify Qilan right away, so she can tell the boss,” Zhu Xiong said.

Zhu Xiong summoned his Angel Envoy, and along with Ye Kailing and Guo Gang, the three of them flew back to Sanli Town.

The Salamander Dragon in the reservoir watched the three departing figures. The red in its beastly pupils slowly faded, but the fixed gaze didn't scatter in the slightest, as if it was plotting something.

Sanli Town

The trio had just landed and immediately started to take different actions.

“I'll go and have someone notify the main city. I will have the Sky Cavalry keep an eye on Sanli Town, but they probably won't be able to get too close, those monsters' true capabilities are still unclear.”

“Wait, Kailing.”

Zhu Xiong slightly frowned and suddenly thought of something, “Check with Qilan about whether to send the more than twenty thousand people here back to headquarters for resettlement.”

“Old Zhu, what do you mean?” Ye Kailing looked puzzled. According to the preliminary plan for resettlement, people were to be settled on-site first, and once the cleanup was mostly done, they would be moved back in batches and further arrangements would be made. They were not fully prepared now.

“I'm worried that the boss won't arrive quickly enough,” Zhu Xiong said with furrowed brows. “Sanli Town doesn't have a Bug Quality Rift, so he can't teleport here immediately. By the time the message gets to him and he comes, it's going to take some time. If that monster suddenly goes berserk and something unexpected happens, I'm worried we might need to retreat.”

Once he said this, both Guo Gang and Ye Kailing's expressions turned serious–such a possibility was not non-existent.

They indeed could evacuate quickly, but that might not be the case for the survivors.

Although there were Contractors among them, they were not disciplined enough, and they also lacked transportation means. If a real emergency occurred, chaos would be inevitable.

“Just transfer them directly, be in a state of battle readiness,” Guo Gang said after a moment of silence.

“I agree, I'll go and notify, and we'll start preparing for the evacuation here,” Ye Kailing said, acting swiftly, dispatching someone back to notify headquarters and informing them of the situation here.

Upon receiving the news, Bai Qilan ordered Zhu Xiong and the others to start the evacuation immediately and also dispatched Zhao Yaqian over.

Sanli Town underwent an emergency evacuation overnight, and all survivors were to be transferred. Incoming patrol teams and reservists supervised and carried out the transfer to ensure no accidents occured.

In fact, during the clearing of Sanli Town, there were indeed unruly survivor groups who loved to cause trouble.

However, they had already been dealt with by the search team. Those who needed to die were definitely not spared. In addition to the large-scale extermination battles against the hordes of monsters, unless someone was a fool, no one would cause trouble at such a time.

Moreover, the squads responsible for the transfer had stated that there was concern about a beast surge attacking the city and turning Sanli Town into a battlefield, which was why the transfer was being carried out.

Just this action alone reminded many people of the army from before the apocalypse.

Many ordinary people, even those who had become Contractors, only hoped to live relatively peaceful lives; now they were even less likely to resist, walking while continuously reminding others to pay attention to safety, vaguely intertwining their duty with the protection of others.

There were also survivors shouting to join in the battle and help resist the beast surge, but they were refused by Zhao Yimin and others, suggesting they could consider joining the Tree Domain Legion after returning to the Tree Domain.

Without systematic training, survivors were not adept at using some weapons and equipment; poor coordination would not be beneficial for the upcoming events.

On the other side, Zhao Yaqian had just set up the machine guns and heavy artillery on the temporary reinforced walls.

“Yaqian, you've even set up heavy artillery?”

“Captain Zhu, Miss Qilan said, since that monster knows to hide in the water and not come out, and could clearly warn you twice, it already has a not undignified level of intelligence. She is worried that the beast might take new actions,” Zhao Yaqian looked at Zhu Xiong as she spoke. “Defense is one thing, but I will also use my Psychokinetic Power to scan the surroundings from time to time as an early warning until the Lord returns.”

“Has Su Han not received the news?”

“The Lord is in Huiyuan City; he needs to go to the Tree Domain first before coming here. It won't take long, but it's better to be safe than sorry…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Zhao Yaqian's expression changed suddenly, “Something's happening.”

In her use of Psychokinetic Power, a subtle and strange spiritual fluctuation that resembled a beast's roar arose, spreading from far away.
