Chapter 311: Wiping Out the Sea Monsters

After leaving the Jiangnan provincial government area, Chen Yiming was still feeling excited. He chose a random direction and walked along the street.

He had expressed his aspiration when Wang Ronghui mentioned the energy mine, but in reality, Wang Ronghui did not pin much hope on him.

This was because the strongest human had always been at the master realm.

At this point, there was no longer a path that his seniors had explored and understood for him to use as a reference. Wang Ronghui didn’t think that Chen Yiming would be able to break through in the next one to two decades.

This way, discussing the energy mine seriously might only be something that they should consider many years later.

Chem Yiming passed by a martial arts training center.

Through the glass window, he saw dozens of young people practicing the basic sword techniques under the guidance of a female teacher.

“Too slow!”

A thought suddenly appeared in his mind.

Even though Jiangnan province had successfully established a long-term stronghold in the otherworld, the province was still facing the threat of mutant beasts and the unknown dangers from other space-travel passages.

It was impossible and unrealistic to send all their forces to the otherworld.

“Regardless of whether it’s now or in the future, it’s impossible for the Daxia Kingdom to give up on their territory in the blue planet. The otherworld is only a place to plunder resources after all. Perhaps the energy mine is the key to martial arts for all its citizens.”

“Only by nurturing more warriors can we go deeper into the otherworld and discover more energy mines. This way, I can get enough Skill Points to increase my talents,” Chen Yiming muttered to himself.

......

As his influence as a martial master gradually spread throughout the eastern provinces of the Daxia Kingdom, he slowly felt invisible chains holding him back.

Even though he and his spiritual figure had the advantage in numbers, they were often tied down by unexpected events.

Unless he abandoned everything other than his family, the scope of his authority would only increase. One day, even if he wanted to send out his spiritual figure, he would need to make sure it was suitable to do so.

…

In the blink of an eye, another week had passed.

During this time, Chen Yiming brought Chen Yingying to the provincial biological research institute for a physical examination. After sending his sister back to East Lake City, he secretly went to East Sea province alone.

He had arranged for the spiritual figure to be stationed near the strange mountain village to ensure that the treants could be suppressed immediately if they made any moves.

It was said that the sea monsters had broken through the coastal areas of several Southeast Asian countries and had already started to move along the coastline. As a large island in the Daxia Kingdom, East Sea province was facing the danger of the sea monsters causing tsunamis from all directions.

This was the truth. In the past two days, the news that the sea monsters were about to land on the shore had spread like wildfire to every city in East Sea province, causing everyone to panic.

However, East Sea province was dozens of kilometers away from the mainland of the Daxia Kingdom. It was not that far away, but since there were aquatic mutant beasts hiding in the sea, it was unrealistic for most people to escape to the mainland of the Daxia Kingdom.

“I don’t have that much time to waste on the sea monsters. I have to intimidate the sea monsters all in one go and give the refugees fleeing to the Daxia Kingdom more confidence.”

Chen Yiming stood on the rooftop of a building.

The surrounding buildings were already empty. The streets were filled with abandoned items, and there were a few supplies left in the shops that had not been taken away in time.

This was a small city by the sea to the east. Almost everyone had packed their bags and left, gathering in the cities in the middle of East Sea province.

Near the distant coastline, troops were waiting in formation, their cannons aimed at the sea.

He looked at the calm sea again and leaped from the building into a mall with a generator. He checked that the spare diesel fuel was still there.

A few minutes later, when the noise from the generator started, the lights in the mall came on.

Chen Yiming walked into a shop where the television hadn’t been taken away. He turned on the power and switched to the news channel.

On the East Sea province’s news station, two experts sat down facing each other.

The two of them answered various questions, urging the people not to panic since the Daxia Kingdom was not a small country in Southeast Asia.

The sea monster’s ability was to cause huge waves. Once it reached the land, with its unwieldy body, the army would have plenty of ways to deal with it. As long as they repelled the sea monster a few times, the other party would naturally retreat.

At that time, the citizens would return to the cities by the sea.

…

In the southern sea of East Sea province, about 10 kilometers away from the shore,

two soldiers carrying weapons were traveling in a speedboat. One was in charge of controlling the direction of the speedboat, and the other was in charge of observing the situation on the surface of the sea.

The speedboat moved along the designated patrol area.

The sea was a deep blue, and the coastline was behind them. In front of them was an endless horizon. It was a very monotonous scenery. They could only hear the roar of the engines and the sound of the waves.

“After the sea monsters come ashore this time, I don’t know if the cities near the coast will be able to recover,” the soldier in charge of observing the situation said worriedly.

What the experts on the news station said was not completely correct. It was mainly to calm the people down and stabilize the situation.

In reality, as long as the matter with the sea monsters could not be dealt with at its core, even if they were defeated once or twice, who knew if they would return one day?

“Compared to the countries in Southeast Asia, no matter how bad our situation is, at least someone can help us,” the soldier controlling the engine said.

“Indeed. Although nuclear bombs are not useful at sea, the Daxia Kingdom still has another card to play. The sea monsters can’t cause too much of a stir.”

These two military martial arts experts firmly believed that even if the sea monster could temporarily come ashore, once the situation in East Sea province showed signs of collapse, the new martial master from the Daxia Kingdom would definitely not just stand by and do nothing.

Not long after, the speedboat reached the furthest point it could go on its patrol route. It drew a long arc and turned around to head towards the coastline.

The soldier standing at the bow of the ship picked up the device in his hand and looked at it every once in a while. Then, he clicked confirm and sent the data back.

The device was a small receiving device. On it was a small LCD screen that displayed the signal received in real time.

Because the sea monsters liked to cause huge waves, the military had placed a large number of surveillance devices in the sea around East Sea province to monitor the flow of seawater.

…

On the shore, in a temporary house in the military camp.

This was the data processing center on the southern sea of East Sea province.

A soldier in charge of analyzing the data finished his work and turned to ask, “Do you know how many people died in Myanmar this time?”

“It should be a few hundred thousand people!”

“I just saw the latest information. The death toll is more than two million people. In fact, it must be more than that.”

“Gasp! When the sea monsters went ashore, didn’t those people run away?”

Although the staff at the data processing center could only see the cold numbers, it did not stop them from imagining tragic scenes.

The sea monsters charged into the human cities on huge waves and started a massacre. No one could stop them.

Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on his back.

“How could the higher-ups of Myanmar release the real number? The data that just came back was collected by the people we planted in various cities.”

“That’s true. I heard that a large number of refugees risked their lives to cross the wilderness and enter our country. Once the true number of casualties is announced, I wonder how many more people will escape.”

Just as everyone was chatting about the situation in Myanmar, a few numbers in the data that were being sent back exceeded the accepted range. However, because there were too few samples, the program did not immediately prompt them and only turned the numbers red.

For such cases, they had to wait for the entire batch of data to be released before the experts could analyze it and make a judgment.

…

Night fell. 12 hours later, the darkness was chased away by the sunlight.

Chen Yiming woke up on a lounge chair. He could vaguely sense a slight vibration coming from the south. From his experience, it was close to 1,000 kilometers away.

At this distance, it had already exceeded the distance from his position to the southern coastline. There was a high chance that there was a situation in the sea.

His sleepiness instantly dissipated. He quickly left the mall and leaped up to the rooftop of the tallest building nearby.

Looking into the distance, there happened to be an army rushing south.

“The sea monster should be coming ashore soon,” Chen Yiming muttered to himself. With that, his figure flashed and he rushed towards the southern sea.

…

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Five kilometers away from the coast, the artillery positions were lined up and firing freely at the surface of the sea.

On the surface of the sea, huge waves were surging towards the shore. Under the surface of the sea, there were dense black shadows. From time to time, sea monsters holding anchor-like weapons would appear to observe the situation on the shore.

Occasionally, a cannonball would explode beside the sea monsters. The seawater would first reduce a portion of the attack’s lethality before it landed on the thick layer of skin on the sea monsters’ bodies.

Most of the cannons could not even leave a black mark on them, and the sea monsters were almost unharmed after the attacks.

At the moment, the artillery positions were far enough from the coastline that the huge waves caused by the sea monsters could not reach them. As for a tsunami, it needed a cumulative effect. The conflict between the sea monsters and humans was currently in a stalemate.

Suddenly, half of a huge sea monster’s body surfaced.

The skin on its back was different from that of ordinary sea monsters. Not only did it have barbs, but it also emitted a dark golden glow.

It suddenly raised its head, opened its mouth, and spat out a long stream of water.

A faint golden light flowed on the surface of the water beam. It was like a high-pressure water gun that crossed a few kilometers and shot towards the artillery formation.

In the next moment, the artillery formation was swept away by the water beam from left to right.

The soldiers were still aiming, reloading, and firing. Many of them were hit by the water beam and exploded. Suddenly, there were heavy casualties, and blood was everywhere.

There were powerful sea monsters ambushing the artillery troops.

This scene happened too quickly, just in the blink of an eye. It caught all of them off guard.

In just a few seconds, nearly 100 soldiers had died.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

There was not only one artillery formation. The other artillery troops immediately opened fire to provide support. The black artillery shells that filled the sky drew an arc and landed in the area where the powerful sea monster was.

However, the sea monster ignored the incoming cannonball and spat out another stream of water.

The attacks from both sides hit each other almost at the same time. This time, there was time to react. When the water beam shot out, everyone immediately dodged it. Only a few people who could not dodge it were killed.

On the other hand, the sea monster allowed countless shells to explode on its body, and a layer of golden light appeared on its skin.

The artillery shells that filled the sky could not cause any damage and only caused a huge splash. This also caused the balance of the war to tilt, and more sea monsters boldly surfaced.

There were thousands of sea monsters, and half of their bodies were hidden in the huge waves. When the artillery troops saw this scene, the officer immediately ordered them to retreat.

Fighting the sea monsters at sea was disadvantageous to the humans. The artillery had originally planned to slow down the sea monster’s speed of reaching the shore and give the rear some time to react.

Now that the situation had changed, the sea monsters seemed to be on the verge of launching a full-scale attack. They had to retreat immediately and preserve their strength to fight the sea monsters on land.

Just as the powerful sea monster was about to spew out a third stream of water, an arrow emitting a white light tore through the air at the speed of light.

“Boom!”

With a loud bang, the arrow successfully hit its target.

Accompanied by the blood that filled the sky, a white light spread out for more than 10 kilometers.

Within this range, the air seemed to have distorted, and an invisible force pressed down on the surface of the sea.

Immediately after, amidst the cries of the soldiers at the artillery camp, a deep pit more than 10 kilometers wide appeared on the surface of the sea. The surface of the sea around the pit instantly rose by hundreds of meters, as if there was suddenly a huge pillar there.

However, this unimaginable phenomenon quickly disappeared. A larger and taller wave attacked the shore, and it was about 1,000 meters tall, blocking the huge pillar from sight.

“This!”

“It’s over! It’s too late!”

At this moment, the countless soldiers seemed to have seen death.

After all, a distance of five kilometers was nothing to a 1,000-meter wave. Most of the soldiers would not be able to withstand the impact of such a huge wave.

Just as everyone’s bodies stiffened and their faces turned pale, a figure landed in front of the huge wave. From the back, he had short black hair and seemed very young.

The young man threw out a punch, and an invisible force similar to before erupted. A white light outshone the sun in the sky, and the soldiers’ vision was filled with white.

When the soldiers closed their eyes and opened them again, their vision had returned to normal. They saw that the huge wave had been blown apart into countless water droplets and was moving back.

“Uh…”

“Is he still human?”

Looking at the sea that had been dyed red in front of them, this was the only thought that everyone had.

…

In the military camp, Chen Yiming shook hands with the highest-ranking official.

“Hello! My name is Liu Wenjun, the division commander of the artillery division. We didn’t receive any notice and weren’t prepared at all. Thank you so much for taking the time to come over.”

How many people in the Daxia Kingdom could cause such destructive power with one strike?

Seeing his young appearance, there was no need to verify who it was.

Liu Wenjun was very enthusiastic. He held his hand for a long time before letting go, as if they were old friends who had been separated for many years.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Chen Yiming frowned, he didn’t know how long he would have held on to his hand.

“It’s alright, Division Commander Liu. The sea monsters shouldn’t dare to come ashore again for the time being. I’ll go to the surrounding sea to confirm the situation,” Chen Yiming said calmly.

“How can that be? You came all the way to support East Sea province. We haven’t even had the chance to thank you yet!”

Liu Wenjun turned to the communications officer beside him and instructed, “Xiao Zhou, you’re in charge of taking care of him.”

He turned back to Chen Yiming and said, “Xiao Zhou is my communications officer. He knows most of the situation, so I asked him to accompany you.”

“Alright!”

Unable to dissuade Commander Liu, Chen Yiming agreed to it.

Liu Wenjun quickly left and reported the news that Chen Yiming had appeared in East Sea province and wiped out the first batch of sea monsters.
