After flying through the night, they arrived at the edge of Hidden Fog before dawn.
This way, they could launch their attack during the day, when the temperature was the highest and the lighting was the best.
Meng Chao stood in front of Kun Peng in a spherical observation room that was practically transparent. He looked into the distance, and he could see mountains that rose and fell in the clouds.
The mountains were as steep, sharp, and dangerous as reefs in a storm.
It was also as if there was a gigantic ancient ferocious beast hibernating in the depths of the clouds. Every mountain peak was one of its fangs, and the surrounding mountains were its bloody mouths.
When the wind blew away the clouds and revealed the forest under the fog, Meng Chao could see two raging rivers with monstrous waves. They started winding, tangling with each other, and crashing into each other from the depths of the mountains.
Sometimes, they split into more than one hundred tributaries, which tore apart the already complicated terrain. Sometimes, they merged together, causing the width and volume of the rivers to increase by several times.
The earth-shattering momentum was more like a never-ending carpet bombing, ravaging the eardrums of humans.
This was Red Dragon River from Earth and Tiger's Raging River from the Other World.
It was as if two aquatic dragons, one black and one red, had their heads biting at each other's throats. Their tails were entwined with each other, as if they were mating.
With the impact of the two large rivers, it was not surprising that there were floods and mudslides everywhere. Swamps and Ghost Lakes were everywhere.
Even though the environment was bad, the Red Dragon Army's construction army still withstood the extreme weather and the two rivers wreaking havoc. They set up a few military bases and heavy artillery bases on relatively safe highlands. They also set up railway tracks that allowed railway guns to travel dozens of kilometers away from God of Fog Mountain so that the artillery shells could hit the top of God of Fog Mountain.
The bright silver metal wave that symbolized human civilization was slowly but firmly eating away at the fog, wild, and forest that symbolized the monster civilization inch by inch.
Countless humans poured their blood into this, and no one could reverse this process.
When Kun Peng arrived, dozens of railway guns had already been mobilized. They were firing rhythmically and methodically at the depths of Hidden Fog Mountain.
The railway guns were filled with weather interference bombs and reaction test bombs with rare crystals embedded in them.
They could create colorful mushroom clouds in the depths of the Hidden Fog Desolate Domain.
The mushroom cloud rose slowly like a giant arrow. It could stay in the air for dozens of minutes. Even the storm, lightning, and thunder could not disperse it.
Long Feijun told Meng Chao that the shells were filled with hundreds of different types of crystal powder. Under high temperature and high pressure, they could react with the crystal mines hidden deep underground and turn into thousands of colors and forms.
Experienced crystal specialists could observe the mushroom clouds from afar on armored airships or hot air balloons. Then, they would be able to infer and calculate the trend, quantity, and composition of the underground mother lodes so that they could provide data support for the distribution and coordinates of the weather interference bombs.
Besides, the data the Piranhas and Lu Siya sent back before they disappeared allowed the humans to create a detailed map of more than 50% of Hidden Fog Desolate Region.
Therefore, the conditions of the ten new exploration teams were much better than those of the previous five exploration teams.
Of course, an indirect calculation based on the mushroom cloud caused by the crystal cannonballs was not as accurate as an actual survey.
Before the main attack, the highest authorities hoped to completely control the microclimate near Hidden Fog Desolate Region so that they could obtain a window of peace for seventy-two hours.
If the humans armed themselves to the teeth entered Hidden Fog Desolate Region but ran into a storm that caused Red Dragon River and Tiger's Raging River to flood and triggered a chain reaction such as landslides, the consequences would be dire.
If they wanted to control the microclimate, they had to investigate and get rid of all unknown factors.
This was the mission of the ten exploration teams.
Meng Chao stared at the roaring railway guns standing on the ground. Just like all the men, he could not shift his gaze away.
After admiring it for a long time, he looked away reluctantly and said to Long Feijun, "Senior Brother Long, there's something I've always been curious about. Of course, it's not convenient for you to say it, but since a long time ago, there have been rumors that Dragon City has nuclear weapons, and the goal of creating Dragon's Might Cannon was to launch nuclear weapons. This is a true nuclear cannon!
"Is that true? If we really have nuclear weapons, can we use nuclear cannons to bombard Hidden Fog Desolate Region and destroy the monster civilization while paying the smallest price? "
Long Feijun did not answer Meng Chao's first question.
Instead, he smiled and answered the second question. "That won't work, because the matter in the Other World is too unstable. Many of the physical laws here are different from those on Earth, and Dragon City doesn't have many nuclear physics experts. Our nuclear physics research system crumbled at the beginning of the transmigration. Later, the best talents went into the research of spirit energy martial arts, runic symbol machines, and biochemical modifications.
"Hence, the current Dragon Citizens can't tell what will happen if a nuclear bomb explodes in the Other World, even if it's the one with the lowest yield.
"Besides, while Hidden Fog Desolate Region is the ultimate nest of the monster civilization, it's also the source of Red Dragon River and Tiger's Raging River.
"You should know just how much of a disaster it brought to Dragon City when Red Dragon River flooded during the early stages of the transmigration, right?
"The power of normal nuclear weapons isn't as great as you imagine, but the consequences are far more unpredictable than you imagine. Let's say — and I'm just saying let's say let's say let's say we really have nuclear weapons and are crazy enough to fire them at Hidden Fog Desolate Region. There's a certain chance that we can destroy the monster civilization, but there's also a higher chance that we can make Red Dragon River and Tiger's Raging River go completely out of control and turn the southwestern region of Monster Mountain Range into a swamp country. In fact, Red Dragon River in Dragon City will flood again and devour both sides of the river.
"Don't forget, monsters have great regenerative abilities, and invisible enemies like bacteria, viruses, and Blood Flower spores are existences that are one hundred times more terrifying than monsters. The flooded area after the flood is their paradise. After a disaster, there will definitely be a major epidemic. This is common sense. Besides, this flood was caused by nuclear weapons, so it's highly radioactive."
Meng Chao thought about it carefully, and he could not help but shudder.
He had been too rash.
By the looks of it, the higher-ups of Dragon City had a clear mind. They had long since come up with all sorts of extreme tactics and strategies in detail.
There were plenty of times when he thought that the higher-ups of Dragon City had made a series of incredibly stupid decisions in his previous life, which led to the apocalypse. It was because they had no other choice.
However, based on what Long Feijun said, Dragon City really did have nuclear weapons.
Then, they could not stop maintaining, creating, and developing nuclear weapons. They had to invest ten times more resources into it than they did on Earth.
No matter how strong the Deity Realm superhumans were, nuclear weapons were still one of Dragon City's ultimate methods of intimidation.
If destruction was bound to come, then they would destroy everything together and increase the scale of destruction by one hundred times. They would destroy the destroyer as well!
When Long Feijun sensed the great killing intent from Meng Chao, he quirked his eyebrows, and an expression that said they shared the same ideals appeared on his face.
"If the monster civilization's mastermind really has intelligence that surpasses that of humans, it should be praying for our victory, not our failure," Long Feijun said meaningfully.
"Because our failure will be even more terrifying than our victory. It'll be one hundred times more terrifying."
…
Kun Peng slowly descended at the military base closest to Hidden Fog Desolate Region.
Meng Chao and the others unloaded the components of the first teleportation device and used three hours to complete the assembly and debugging.
When the shining ball of light that had once appeared in the ancient ruins appeared at the center of the military base, all the warriors and superhumans were attracted, and they could not shift their gazes away.
Everyone could sense that the appearance of short-distance teleportation technology on the surface of a planet meant that human civilization's form of warfare was about to go through a drastic change.
And today was just the first wave of this technology.
The other teleportation device was set up in the Supernatural Tower.
More than one hundred armored airships with super high-efficiency crystal communicators hovered in the air one after another. They lined up from Hidden Fog Desolate Region to Dragon City and formed a tactical data link that could be seen with the naked eye.
With this method, they could ensure the stable transmission of crucial data in an environment with incredibly strong spirit energy magnetic field interference.
Because of it, the military base at the frontlines and the Supernatural Tower at the center of Dragon City could exchange images and other data in real time.
The first thing the Supernatural Tower sent over was a thinking tank known as a bread crab.
When the round metal shell of the bread crab appeared in the ball of light, machine masters and runic symbol masters immediately went forward to inspect each of its components to see whether they had changed shape during the teleportation process.
The bread crab also carried three living white rats. They were immediately sent to be studied to see whether their organs had ruptured, whether their brains had hematomas, and whether their spines had become twisted.
The conclusion was that everything was normal. Aside from one of the white rats suffering from a mild concussion, the other runic symbol machines and the white rats were all in good condition. They were not affected at all.
Then, a heavy transport vehicle filled with crystal ammunition charged through the ball of light like a charging rhinoceros. It was instantly sent to the frontlines from the Supernatural Tower.
After testing, the stability and damage of the crystal ammunition did not decrease.
This meant that the assembly of the teleportation device was successful, and its operation was stable. More powerful fighters and strategic resources could instantly appear at the edge of Hidden Fog Desolate Region through the crystalline ball of light that seemed to contain endless starlight.
But this was not enough.
The teleportation door was just an "insurance".
There were two more teleportation devices that had to be set up in the depths of Hidden Fog Desolate Region. It would be best if they were set up at the edge of the sinkhole or even the depths of the sinkhole.
Only by doing so could Dragon City's sharpest blade reach the monster civilization's heart.
