Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 255: Seeing the Sun Once More

They climbed for a total of three days and three nights up the winding crack.

Since the spirit energy tsunami had torn through a lot of walls and made a lot of them collapse, the alignment of the underground cracks changed, and the escape paths that Qin Hu had recorded in the beginning were useless.

Fortunately, Lu Siya had been baptized by the Red Radiance Jades and Blue Origin Crystals. Her sensitivity to the fine changes in spirit energy had increased multiple times. She could also change the atomic structure of the stones and turn indestructible stone walls into fine sand. With this method, she increased the size of the cracks and cleared out tunnels for them.

Besides, wherever the spirit energy tsunami passed, the originally coarse, sharp and angular stones had all been melted to the point where they were as smooth and round as glass. If the group just squeezed their bodies through the cracks, they could easily move through.

Like that, they gradually got closer to the surface. The air that surged into their nostrils became fresher.

The faint light above their heads grew stronger until it occupied their entire field of vision. The three people who were used to long periods of darkness felt a piercing pain in their eyes.

When they were about to escape from the underground, they felt complicated emotions well up in their hearts. They felt as if they were wanderers who had just returned home.

Even if Meng Chao knew that he had changed a lot of things through the increase in his contribution points, he still felt a little uneasy.

Was the wave they stirred up enough to cause a storm that could change the world?

Would the Apocalyptic Beasts and Deity Realm elites still end up badly injured? Would it affect the countless middle-grade and low-grade superhumans? Would the area around Raging Waves end up in a mess, and they would temporarily lose the chance to develop and use the area?

Just what sort of effect of the Red Radiance Jades continuously releasing spirit energy? Would it be like what Lu Siya had mentioned? Would it turn into energy that could nourish spirit meridians and stimulate their genes? Would the middle-grade and low-grade superhumans seize this rare chance to cultivate madly and fight as much as they could?

“Meng Chao, we’ll pull you up!”

While he was thinking, he heard a voice above his head.

Lu Siya and Qin Hu had already crawled out of the underground and turned their heads around to reach out to him.

Meng Chao smiled and extended his arms to them. They grabbed him with firm grips and pulled him up, bringing him back to the world of light.

The three of them narrowed their eyes for a total of ten seconds before they got used to the blinding light that came charging into their eyes.

They looked around and were stunned for a moment as they wondered whether they were in Raging Waves or a brand new world.

They could not see a single tree around them. The mountain near them was barren, but filled with holes that breathed hot steam rolling upward. The bottom and the edges of the holes looked like glazed tiles. The holes seemed to have been made by incredibly hot meteors.

Intersecting trenches could be found as well. It looked as if deities and demons had used their weapons to create them. The trenches were also colorful, like glazed tiles.

“This is...” Qin Hu’s eyes bulged out, and he gulped while he mumbled, “Are these marks left behind by Deity Realm fighters?”

Meng Chao was struck dumb with amazement.

‘Deity Realm fighters are truly people who are like deities,’ he thought. ‘But no matter how strong they are, at the end of my previous life, they didn’t manage to protect Dragon City from destruction. Looks like I will have to train harder. I can’t just reach Deity Realm and stand at the top of the Supernatural Tower. I must surpass Deity Realm and see just what exists beyond the skies above the Supernatural Tower.

‘Only by surpassing Deity Realm will I be able to prevent the apocalypse, and only when I stand above the heavens will I be able to see just how this world looks like under the skies!’

“Look, over there!” Lu Siya suddenly pointed at a “meteor pit” not far away from them.

When the three of them went forward to observe the place, they noticed an incredibly large monster’s carcass lying in the pit.

It looked like a huge mammoth with metal armor around it, but also like an enlarged Iron-armored Rhinoceros. It was ten times as terrifying and monstrous as a regular Iron-armored Rhinoceros.

Its bumpy skin had a metallic shine while its huge tusks were more than ten meters long. They were covered in profound and complicated patterns, which shone together with the single horn standing tall on its head. Even if the creature was dead, they continued releasing fierce flames.

The gravel and walls of the meteor pit had all been glazed, and it looked like a seven-colored glass bowl, but the terrifying monster that looked like a hill was uninjured. Not a single piece of its skin was burnt.

“This is a legendary Apocalyptic Beast, Earth-shattering Bull. I heard that not only does it have super powerful defenses that won’t lose to those of the Black Tortoise, it also has the ability to change the structure of the ground and start earthquakes by creating tremors. The powerful fighters from the military once led a platoon of commandos to kill it, but they were all sent to the ground by the earthquake it created!” Qin Hu said in shock.

“It’s no wonder why we couldn’t find an exit after climbing for three days. Many of the cracks I had taken note of were blocked or twisted. So, this is the one who has been causing us all the trouble.”

“That’s right. Raging Waves has the nest of the Earth-shattering Bull. It’s because we were afraid of its ability to create earthquakes that we didn’t dare to send many of our heavy weapons, including the railway guns, into Raging Waves. Now, that the Earth-shattering Bull is done for, our steel army can finally be of use. But how did it die?”

“This is the cause.” Meng Chao finally discovered a hole the size of a finger on the Earth-shattering Bull’s left ear.

There was also a finger-sized hole on its right ear.

Based on the location of the two holes, someone used an incredibly thin weapon. Or rather, it would be better to say that he or she used a steel needle to pierce the Earth-shattering Bull’s head and destroy its brain completely.

This discovery silenced the three people for a long time.

Lu Siya looked at Meng Chao and said in a profound manner, “There’s no need to be envious of other people’s strength. If we work together, there will come a day where we can do this too.”

“I’ll be able to do it even without us working together,” Meng Chao said warily.

Even though Lu Siya was very pretty, not old, was rich, had a lot of power, and long, straight, curvy, and powerful legs, Meng Chao had his principles.

He could not just ride on Lu Siya’s coattails.

At the very least, he should think about it carefully before he asked to ride on her coattails.

“I’m not as ambitious as you two. I’ll be satisfied once I get to Heaven Realm.” Qin Hu stared at the Earth-shattering Bull and drooled. “Why isn’t there anyone harvesting the carcass of the Apocalyptic Beast? How much is this thing worth?”

Before his voice could fade away, a deafening boom came from nearby.

A light breeze blew over and got rid of the thick fog around them.

It was only at that moment that the three of them realized that the extreme weather conditions with lightning crackling and strong wind blowing fiercely were gone without a trace.

The fog surrounding the area was real fog, not the ripples formed due to the distortions of time and space. When the sun shone on it, it disappeared without a trace.

The three people’s field of vision brightened. It was as if a brand new world had been slowly opened up in front of them.

The raging dark clouds above their heads were torn to pieces and could only hide in the horizon while gasping for their last breath.

The sky was occupied by blue and white, along with a brilliant, red sun.

As it shone on them, a red cloud that looked like the Undying Bird spreading its wings rose slowly. It refused to disappear even after a long time had passed.

Under the red cloud was a rising and falling mountain range, a lush, green forest, and lakes spreading out like pearls on the bed of an ocean which was an endless meadow. The trio could see all this with just one glance.

The world was beautiful, wide, and clear.

And in between the wide world were more than one hundred armored airships flying with rumbling noises.

They were shipping large amounts of heavy weapons, construction machines to the depths of Graveyard Forest and Raging Waves to build fortresses, bases, and railways, and transporting the carcasses of the superbeasts from deep in Raging Waves so that they could become valuable raw materials for the development of Dragon City.

Some of the large middle-grade or high-grade superbeasts like the Earth-shattering Bull even needed a few armored airships to lift them, and even then, they swayed while being transported away.

But it was fine. After five days and five nights of rain, most of the raging energy that had been accumulating underground for billions of years was gone. The spirit energy magnetic field within the area had become stable, and lightning, invisible wind force, and turbulence did not bother them anymore. Humanity’s armored airships and steel army could now do their job.

“The situation is set! We won!”

This scene caused the three people with different statuses, backgrounds, strengths, personalities, and beliefs to smile in an identical way.

Perhaps the battles scattered here and there had not ended, but as long as the Apocalyptic Beasts residing deep in Raging Waves were all killed, the extreme weather conditions were gone, and the spirit energy magnetic field interference was no longer around, humanity’s steel army would be able to enter the battlefield, and nothing could stop their victory.

“Look!”

“That... at the horizon...”

“Over there!”

The three of them cried out at the same time.

In the direction they pointed was a rainbow that was much more brilliant than the ones that could be seen on Earth. It stretched over Dragon City and Monster Mountain Range until it reached the horizon and ended at a spot far away in the Other World.

The trio was soon discovered by armored airships.

For nearly five days, humans had fought fiercely against the monsters in Raging Waves. The Deity Realm elites and Apocalyptic Beasts had clashed against each other, and the impact waves they created affected a lot of middle-grade and low-grade superhumans.

There were plenty of other people who were scattered on the mountainside, forest, and even in the underground. There were also plenty of superbeast carcasses that had to be harvested, nests that needed destroying, and fortresses that needed building.

The military units were so busy that they could not breathe, so they could not see what was extraordinary about Meng Chao’s group straight away. They only thought about sending them and the other injured people back to the bases in Shattered Starlake.

But Lu Siya had a lot of authority in her hands. She contacted an armored airship with a red cross painted on it.

It was a mobile war hospital with advanced equipment. Based on Lu Siya’s words, it did not lose to the private medical centers in Dragon City.

Meng Chao did not want to let Lu Siya check his body, but once he thought about it, there was just no reason for him to hide his strength in this world where resources were the most important thing.

If he revealed his strength at suitable moments, he would be able to attract more people to invest in him and would be able to get more cultivation resources.

Besides, the miracle had happened right in front of the other two’s eyes and it could help him hide the strange abilities he gained after he returned from the past.

Also, Lu Siya had already seen his naked body while they were at the depths of the cave, so there was no need for him to hide anything right now.

After thinking about this, Meng Chao and Qin Hu happily boarded Lu Siya’s medical airship.
