Meng Chao stared at the colorful river of light in the air and mumbled, "The abnormal beasts' ambush is about to begin."
"How did you know?" Lu Siya asked.
"These flying insects have organs that are similar to magnets in their bodies. They're wrapped in a really thick, high-energy substance. Once their wings vibrate at high frequencies, they can create powerful spirit energy magnetic field interference," Meng Chao said.
"The spirit energy magnetic field interference from one flying insect might not be much, but when thousands of flying insects gather together, they can create large-scale information interference and cover the battlefield. That's how Captain Ye's communications with us were cut off.
"But the powerful spirit energy magnetic field interference also causes severe damage to their bodies. To put it simply, they have to continuously burn the high-energy substances in their bodies to ensure that their magnetism-like organs can continuously release energy. The colorful light you see coming from them is because they're burning fiercely.
"The cover created by the flying insects can't last for long. The flying insects will be reduced to ashes soon. This is the abnormal beasts' trump card, and they will definitely use it at the most crucial moment.
"If the abnormal beasts' ultimate goal was just the underwater tunnel, when the Ultimate Sandworm appeared, the abnormal beasts should have released the Illusory Light Insects to cut off the communications in the south of the city.
"But the abnormal beasts didn't do that. In fact, they were completely indifferent to the Ultimate Sandworm's death. They only released the Illusory Light Insects when a large number of powerful fighters and armies entered the south of the city. It's clear that the abnormal beasts want to cut off the communications between the south and northwest of the city so that the news of Noble Descent Hotel being attacked won't reach the battlefield in the south for the time being. They don't need to cut off the communications for too long. Half an hour to an hour is enough for the abnormal beasts to kill or kidnap all the important people of Project 101.
"Big Sis Ya, do you trust me?"
Meng Chao stared at Lu Siya.
"I think that you're becoming more and more like a conman," Lu Siya said.
"But since we're teammates, I don't have any other choice aside from trusting you!"
"Then we should hurry to Noble Descent Hotel now."
Meng Chao clenched his fists and said, "On the way, we'll notify all the people we can contact. If we can convince just one more powerful fighter to come with us to Noble Descent Hotel, we'll have a higher chance of crushing the abnormal beast's scheme. We might even be able to capture the abnormal beast that's hiding underground and causing trouble!
"Furthermore, I believe that Team Leader Ye has already been convinced by me just now. Although his communication with the outside world has been cut off, he's definitely actively coordinating and organizing manpower. He'll be rushing to the Noble Descent Hotel very soon.
"Perhaps we won't need to hold on for long. As long as we can delay the exotic beasts for a few minutes, we'll win!"
Lu Siya only thought about it for a few seconds.
Then, he went to the Red Dragon Army squad to coordinate with them.
Because their gliders and 3D mobile suits had been damaged in the fierce battle just now, they couldn't even stand it.
Lu Siya borrowed two military-grade 3D mobile suits from the Red Dragon Army squad.
Meng Chao's fearless performance in the underwater tunnel had won him the respect of the Red Dragon Army soldiers.
They very straightforwardly lent out two sets of the fastest Scout high-speed mobile suits and opened up their own armory for the two of them to choose any other equipment they wanted.
"The battlefield in the south of the city seems to have run into an incredibly powerful spirit energy magnetic field interference."
While Lu Siya put on her equipment, she asked the commander of the Red Dragon Army.
"Yes."
The commander of the Red Dragon Army frowned. "Aside from the complete breakdown of the wireless network, wired communications have also been cut off. Looks like those damn rats have bitten through the underground wires and optical cables."
"That's bad."
Lu Siya looked at the commander of the Red Dragon Army. "We just received the latest information from the abnormal beast research department. There's concrete evidence that a large number of monsters and zombies have appeared in Noble Descent Hotel in the northwest of the city. By the looks of it, the enemy's target isn't as simple as the south of the city. They want to open up a second battlefront in the northwest of the city, which is the place where our forces are the weakest."
The commander of the Red Dragon Army was shocked. "What? You have proof?"
"Our team leader has proof. He was about to send it over, but the abnormal beasts performed a powerful information interference on the battlefield," Lu Siya said.
"We had no choice but to personally investigate the northwest of the city. If you think that there's a need, you can report this information to your superiors. I believe that they will make the right judgment."
The commander of the Red Dragon Army cursed and returned to the command vehicle.
Even though the information in the south of the city had been interfered with and blocked off, there were still a lot of Red Dragon Army soldiers stationed in the entire city, including the new development area in the north.
Meng Chao believed that this information would soon be sent to the high-ranking commander of the Red Dragon Army.
Meng Chao was dumbfounded. When the commander entered the command vehicle, he grabbed Lu Siya's arm and whispered, "What do you mean by this?"
"What do I mean?"
Lu Siya said expressionlessly. "Didn't you say that we should mobilize all the forces we can mobilize as soon as possible? Isn't the Red Dragon Army the force we can rely on the most right now?"
"But you can't lie about military information!"
Meng Chao said. "Captain Ye, what 'concrete evidence' do you have?"
"What else could I do?"
Lu Siya said matter-of-factly. "I wouldn't say that the captain has concrete evidence, but that everything is based on your guesses. Then, I would repeat your long speech to this commander, his superior, and his superior's superior a few times. Then, while crying, I would beg them to believe in your instincts."
"…"
Meng Chao sucked in a deep breath. "Then, you believe in my instincts so easily?"
"Am I not supposed to?"
Lu Siya said. "You make it sound so logical, as if you saw it with your own eyes. If it's true, we'll have contributed a lot, and our status in the abnormal beast research department will rise. Even the captain will be praised as a good leader, so no one will care about something as trivial as' lying about military information '."
"Big Sis Ya, thank you for trusting me!"
Meng Chao was really touched. "You didn't even consider the possibility that my guesses were wrong?!"
"Who said that? Of course I thought about it," Lu Siya said faintly.
"Even if your guesses were wrong, at most, we would have mobilized a lot of powerful fighters and soldiers for nothing, which would have caused the battlefield in the south of the city to continue deteriorating. More normal people would be infected and turn into zombies. Compared to the contribution we'll get, this sort of loss is completely acceptable, right? Why didn't you just take a gamble?"
Meng Chao had nothing to say.
He increased the speed at which he put on his equipment.
He was prepared to vent all his gloom and anger on the pitiful monsters.
"Let's go!"
Once Lu Siya was done putting on her equipment, she put more than one hundred grenades on her and Meng Chao.
After all, they were at the peak of Earth Realm and Heaven Realm, so their weight carrying capacity was more than ten times that of normal soldiers. They could turn themselves into two moving arsenals.
"Wait."
Meng Chao was about to activate the ejection function when he suddenly saw a piece of equipment on the Red Dragon Army's armored vehicle.
"Um … Can I borrow that?"
He asked the two soldiers politely.
The soldiers looked at each other at a loss, and their mouths slowly fell open.
Since they did not object to it, it meant that he could borrow it.
Meng Chao jumped on the armored vehicle and growled. He pulled out a vehicle-mounted heavy grenade launcher from the left firing spot on the roof of the armored vehicle.
It was the heavily armored and strengthened version of the Destroyer, which he had used to destroy the Ultimate Sandworm in the underwater tunnel. It was an eight-gun mounted rifle grenade launcher.
It was basically the relationship between a son and a father.
It had a unique mechanical structure, and it could fire dozens of fist-sized rifle grenades in one go.
Of course, the other side of the astonishing ammunition capacity was its weight.
When it was fired, the recoil was like a hammer striking a target.
Therefore, it also had a nickname.
The Hammer of Destruction.
Usually, the "Hammer of Destruction" was installed on armored vehicles, armored airships, and fixed firing points for use.
Only supreme-grade people like Meng Chao, who had both strength and accuracy, could carry this thing and two boxes of rifle grenades on his shoulders.
"Just now, I used the Destroyer to blow up the Ultimate Sandworm, and it felt pretty smooth."
He explained it to the dumbfounded soldiers.
Before the higher-ranking Red Dragon Army commanders verified the situation, Meng Chao and Lu Siya activated their high-speed mobile equipment.
Meng Chao and Lu Siya activated their high-speed mobile equipment, and with the increase in spirit energy, they jumped dozens of meters in one go. Then, they jumped onto a building that was eighty meters tall.
Then, they jumped nonstop through the reinforced concrete forest that was densely packed with skyscrapers. They were practically moving in a straight line to Noble Descent Hotel.
On their way, Lu Siya continued using her private channel to recruit people.
Of course, she still used the excuse of "we have concrete evidence, but we can't send it to them because the battlefield is hidden".
As the third generation member of the Lu family, she naturally knew more powerful people than Meng Chao.
She did not even spare her father, who was a core member of Sky Pillar Corporation, which was one of the nine great mega corporations in Dragon City.
Once she ended the call with her father, Lu Siya released a long sigh.
"This time, I'm betting my entire family's life on you," she mumbled.
"Meng Chao, don't disappoint me!"
"I'll do my best," Meng Chao said while wiping off his sweat.
"Even though I'm 100% confident in my guesses, your unconditional trust in me still puts a lot of pressure on me."
Just now, when Lu Siya was recruiting people, Meng Chao had been calling the Blue Home members he knew in an attempt to warn them.
But when he called them again and again, a few of the core members of Blue Home, including Zhao Feixuan, were not online and could not get through.
Those who did get through did not receive the invitation to the transmigration conference and were not in Noble Descent Hotel.
It was as if Noble Descent Hotel had also suffered from information interference and had been destroyed by abnormal beasts.
In the end, Meng Chao did not manage to get through to Zhao Feixuan.
Instead, he managed to get through to his wife, Xiao Fanghua.
"Ms. Xiao!"
Meng Chao jumped in excitement. He looked like he was about to dance above the dark clouds. "Where are you now? Where's Zhao Feixuan?"
"Meng Chao? “
Xiao Fanghua's voice was muffled, as if it came from the bottom of the sea. "Old Zhao and I are in Noble Descent Hotel. We have a meeting today. Why are you —"
