There were up to 100 cranes that looked like giant steel trees at the port. There were countless containers that were placed neatly under the cranes. There were a few cargo ships and a few low bungalows docked at the port. Those were the dormitories for the single dockworkers and foreign employees.
"Queens' cargo port …" Zhang Lisheng mumbled to himself and controlled Island Dragon to jump off the road silently. It jumped into the port while avoiding the high steel wire netting along the reef.
Sitting on the wizard gu, he passed through the roads that were separated by tens of thousands of huge containers like a ghost, avoiding the patrolling guards with flashlights. 'One, two, three …' Counting the berths at the port, he soon found the two berths that belonged to the Chinese Yuehai Group, which were lined up side by side.
After locking on to the target, Zhang Lisheng walked around the port on purpose. He looked around with a playful expression after seeing the Chinese word 'Yuehai' on a tall container with the help of the moonlight. He controlled Island Dragon to jump onto the container and ran over the fence, jumping out of the Queens' cargo port.
Two to three minutes later, waves appeared on the calm sea outside of New York Harbor all of a sudden. A pair of cold, diamond-shaped eyes lit up in the waves in the dark.
The eyes grew bigger as soon as they appeared. At the same time, the waves on the sea were getting more and more turbulent.
Not long after, a monster that was more than 500 meters long slowly emerged from the water. It was so huge that it could be compared to a large cruiser. As soon as the monster showed itself in the sea, it let out a roar that resounded through the night sky. It stirred up countless waves and charged towards Queens Harbor.
A group of guards who were patrolling at the port had a strange expression on their faces when they heard the giant monster's roar. The tall and fat black guard even said to his colleague, "Arthur, didn't the weather forecast say there won't be any rain today? Why's there such a loud thunder and I didn't see any lightning …"
After the roar, the giant waves came from the sea and the giant mouth that was over 200 meters tall that was charging towards a 10,000-ton ship that was docked at the port along with the waves. The guard's question was answered.
"Oh my god, what, what is that …" The black and fat guard watched helplessly as the unbelievably huge mouth bit the freighter and suddenly spun, tearing the freighter into pieces in the sea of fire. He shouted in horror, "It's the end of the world, is it the end of the world?!
Could it be that the Mayans had miscalculated, and the end of the world was not last year … "
"Johnson, you idiot. It doesn't matter if it's the end of the world today, we'll definitely be killed by the monster if we stay here like idiots …" His colleague roared as he pulled the fat guard's arm and ran toward the exit of the dock.
At this moment, after tearing the freighter apart, the giant beast inhaled a mouthful of steam produced by the ship's explosion. Suddenly, its body was shrouded by clouds and mist, and it slowly rose into the air.
It bared its fangs and brandished its claws in the clouds as it flew to the port. Its iron tail, which was two to three hundred meters long, whipped everywhere. What was even more terrifying was that as the giant beast whipped, a large amount of water vapor in the humid air of the port evaporated for some inexplicable reason and condensed into clouds. The clouds turned into huge mouths and iron tails that crushed everything within the monster's sight.
The crane that was hundreds of meters tall, which was erected by the sea, collapsed with a loud bang.
The electric cables on the ground and in the air shone with dazzling sparks as they ran around like a strange snake.
The thick cement ground cracked one after another as seawater poured into it. Just like that, in less than ten seconds, the two adjacent berths of the Yuehai Group on the Queens cargo port became part of the Atlantic Ocean and sank to the bottom of the sea.
After wreaking havoc for a while, the giant beast dived into the sea and disappeared. Soon, sirens were heard all around the port.
Twenty minutes later, the police, fire department, ambulances, insurance company employees, and the general public who were watching the commotion … Up to thousands of people surrounded the Queens cargo port.
Those who were related to the incident could go into the port and look at the ruins before them. They could listen to the Queens Harbor guards who were not injured but were still in shock like they were listening to a Bible story, telling the horrifying story that happened just now.
The general public, on the other hand, stuck their heads out to look at the port far away as they discussed among themselves.
At this moment, Zhang Lisheng, the culprit of the disaster, was riding on Island Dragon's back with a pale face. He hid in a dark alley and watched the crowd moving around the Queens cargo port.
Unfortunately, he did not see the silhouette that he wanted to see until dawn arrived.
Zhang Lisheng rode on Island Dragon to the Queens cargo port on the first night he returned to New York from Amazon. He used the witchcraft incantation that he obtained after breaking through to Rank-4 Wizard to control Crocodragon to use Mountoad's omniscient power to enlarge its body and destroy all of the Yuehai Group's berths at Queens Harbor. In reality, he did that to alert the enemy and lure Mountain Cat out.
What he did seemed reckless, but in reality, he had thought it through. After Dr. Fracture died, Mountain Cat who was an expert in close-range combat and knew his background was the biggest threat to his safety since he had a deep grudge with the young man.
On the day he killed Dr. Fracture, Zhang Lisheng speculated that Mountain Cat who was severely injured might be hiding in all of the Yuehai Group's properties at Queens Harbor. Unfortunately, he was severely injured back then, so he could not rush to the port to kill Mountain Cat.
Things had changed after Zhang Lisheng healed. It was impossible for him to look for Mountain Cat in Queens Harbor based on the traces he left behind when he was injured. Zhang Lisheng did not have the ability to force Mountain Cat to show himself back then, so he could only give up on hunting Mountain Cat.
Although the matter was put aside, it had been buried in Zhang Lisheng's heart. He made up his mind to attack New York Queens Harbor to see if he could lure Mountain Cat out after he broke through to Rank-4 Wizard in Amazon and obtained the witchcraft incantation that allowed his wizard worm to share omniscient power.
Naturally, it would be the best if Mountain Cat had been recuperating at the Yuehai Group's berth hostel for over a month. He could control Crocodragon to kill Mountain Cat along the way.
If Mountain Cat wasn't there, there was a slight possibility that he would come to take a look when he saw the Yuehai Group's important property being damaged. As long as he showed himself, Island Dragon and Mountoad would definitely kill him even if he was not careful.
Although the plan was great, he got nothing in the end. Although Zhang Lisheng had expected this, he was still a little depressed.
However, when he thought about it carefully, Mountain Cat might have left America since such a big thing happened. Zhang Lisheng could not help but feel relieved.
He sighed softly helplessly and mumbled to himself, "Since I can't track Mountain Cat, I'll treat this as teaching the Yuehai Group a lesson." He controlled Island Dragon to fly towards Brooklyn under the last moonlight.
Zhang Lisheng stepped on Island Dragon's back and climbed into his room through the window when the sky was turning bright. He collapsed onto his bed in exhaustion right away.
He only felt some strength returning to his body after panting for a while. He took out Mountoad from his backpack and placed it before him. He then sat with his legs crossed and began cultivating the secret method while calming himself down. However, he did not expect the uproar he would cause by controlling his giant beast to attack New York Queens Harbor in front of hundreds of people, destroying the cargo ship and causing so many casualties.
Three days later, at the Potomac River in Arlington, Washington, DC, America, the bright afternoon sun shone from the sky, dispelling the chill of winter.
An old man who had a few strands of hair on his head but was combed very neatly stood up from the chair under the tree. He walked out of the tree and showered under the warm sunlight. He had a satisfied smile on his face.
An unknown white water bird chirped happily and landed next to the old man while flapping its wings from the other side of the river.
The old man smiled wryly and took out a paper bag that had a nice scent coming out from his old bag. He mumbled, "I only have one left." He took out a sandwich with fried bacon ham and sliced tomatoes. He broke half of it and tossed it to the water bird while putting the other half into his mouth.
The old man wiped his mouth with a tissue after eating half of the sandwich. He combed his hair and took out a thick document from his bag. He held it strenuously and began reading by the river.
However, the phone in his pocket rang all of a sudden after reading two pages.
"Sh * t! I just wanted to read the document!" The old man complained softly and took out his old phone that looked like a black brick. He picked it up right away. "Hello, who's this?"
"Henry, it's me." An old but vigorous voice came from the phone.
"Bob, my old friend. What's the matter?"
"What's the matter?!
The document has been transferred to you for three days! It's been three days and you still don't have a conclusion. Our country is under threat … "
"Calm down Bob, calm down. I realized that the older you get, the easier it is to make a fuss.
It's just an attack on a New York port. Back then, the Twin Towers was hit by a plane … "
"Henry, as America's chief defense consultant, I think you should know very well that this is different from 911. This is a monster attack like in a sci-fi movie.
It's just like Godzilla. There's only one now but who knows how many more will appear in the future … "
"You're thinking too much, Bob. It's impossible for such an animal to appear in a group. Otherwise, the Atlantic Ocean would've been emptied by them."
"Actually, I think so too." The voice on the phone calmed down and regained its initial dignity. "But no matter what, the situation is very serious now.
The Department of Defense and the President need your judgment. "
"If it's just a judgment, I could've given it to you when I saw these pictures just now." The old man looked at the document in his other hand and his voice became stiff and serious. "This is a sign of war, Mr. Secretary of Defense! It's war!"
"Who … Who wants to bring this war to the US?
Is it our European ally with ulterior motives, the religious fanatics in the Middle East, or that young fat dictator in East Asia, or … "After a moment of silence, the US Secretary of Defense on the other end of the phone said in a low voice," Or the Oriental Red Dragon is ready to go and wants to stand on top of the world again … "
