Lan Mu was still injured when he blocked the plasma cannon. More than half of the sand on the surface of his body was melted and turned into liquid paste. The liquid quickly solidified into hideous scars.
"Just the power of the shockwave can hurt me. The temperature is really terrifying."
Of course, Lan Mu couldn't really rely on the so-called sand wall to block the plasma cannon. This big fuss was just a cover.
The thing that was really used to block the plasma cannon was the Bastet Metal.
The plasma cannon didn't even leave a mark on the Bastet Metal. But after all, it couldn't be absorbed. The spreading plasma and high temperature still hurt the body.
But no matter what, the Bastet Metal had blocked humanity's strongest weapon.
Lan Mu understood that this would definitely be a big blow to humanity. In order to not let them figure out what had blocked the plasma cannon, Lan Mu immediately repaired the damaged sand ball after he caught his breath.
Humanity was really dumbfounded. How did the monster survive? In front of the super weapon that could penetrate hundreds of kilometers of the earth's surface, a monster was too insignificant.
Looking at the towering sand ball being restored, the whole world began to pay attention.
The scene of the plasma cannon firing was broadcasted live. After discovering that it had failed, the signal was immediately cut off.
This scene didn't arouse the suspicion of the people. Regarding this incident, they only knew that the plasma cannon had once again destroyed the monster. It was just ordinary news.
But the military was burning with anxiety. The plasma cannon had failed for the first time!
"Could it be that the monster has become stronger again? This doesn't make sense! No matter how much it evolves, it can't block the plasma cannon! "
"All departments be careful! The monster isn't dead! "
The military waited solemnly. They were all waiting for the monster to break out of the egg and continue to wreak havoc.
But the havoc they imagined didn't come. The monster seemed to have directly treated this place as its nest and didn't make any movements.
They waited for a day before realizing that the monster was hiding inside and wouldn't come out.
"It's better if it doesn't come out! This way, we will have more time to prepare. "
The World Alliance Organization mobilized and began to send mechas and helicarriers to support this place.
Scientific institutions all over the world had also started their research. However, if they wanted to know how the monsters blocked the plasma cannons, they had to break open the sand ball and see what was going on inside.
The sand ball's structure was sturdy. It was thick and huge, and the strongest monster so far was hidden inside. The military needed two to three days to prepare the sand ball for various situations.
However, what they didn't know was that when all their attention was focused on the sand ball, Lan Mu had already quietly left.
He wasn't going to stay there and wait for the next battle. He directly turned the ground into sand and slowly dug his way out.
A hundred kilometers away from Sand Ball, there was a city called Somita.
Lan Mu spent three days to slowly carve out a tunnel from the ground and arrived at the underground of a city.
First of all, he could turn the surrounding soil into sand. The hard rocks were shattered, and the soil was turned into sand. Under Lan Mu's precise control, coupled with the digging of his limbs and tail, the progress was not slow.
"That's it. I'll be able to change back in three days."
Lan Mu lay in the narrow space he had carved out underground. A few hundred meters above him was the underground tunnel and foundation of the entire city.
The people in the city were still minding their own business. The monster crisis had gradually left their lives.
Now the slogan of economic development was getting louder and louder. Countless people were working hard. Although there was a military town more than a hundred kilometers away, and that military town had a fierce battle not long ago, and even the plasma cannons were used.
However, according to the media and the government, the monsters had been destroyed by the invincible plasma cannons. From the beginning to the end, Somita City was not affected.
"Isn't it just the monsters coming again? The army will definitely win. Our technology is advanced now! "
"Yeah, I saw the news. Although the monster was small, its ability was very strange. It actually made a lot of sand. It looked very powerful."
"Wasn't it still killed by the plasma cannons? It was said that there was a sand ball left at the scene. From here, we can see the shadow on the horizon. "
The people of Somita City were not worried about the monsters at all. In recent years, there had been fewer and fewer monster attacks. This sand monster was the first one to attack the northeastern part of Phillip this year.
After experiencing the difficult times more than ten years ago and the great counterattack later, they believed in the power and science of mankind.
When Lan Mu came to rest under the city, no one knew that the home they had lived in for so long was above the head of a monster.
…
Two days later, the army finally blew up the sand ball. Two mechas took the lead and went in to investigate.
A strong light broke through the darkness, and the scene inside was finally revealed to them.
Pieces of shiny material covered the inside of the sand ball. There were even irregular crystals as tall as small hills.
A researcher saw this scene through the monitor and immediately said, "These are the crystals formed by the evaporated sand from the plasma cannons."
"But where's the monster?"
The monster had disappeared. The army searched the entire sand ball. In the end, they even blasted the sand ball flat, but they could not find any trace of the monster.
Below their feet was a thick desert. Someone suggested, "Could it be that the monster ran away from underground?"
"It could also be hiding in the desert."
All kinds of guesses emerged. They took out a microwave detector and found that the high-energy reaction was indeed gone.
They had investigated before and thought that the monster's high-energy reaction was too low, so there was no movement. They did not expect that it had escaped.
"General! We found a sand hole … to the west. There is a tunnel filled with sand under the ground! "
"To the west … isn't that Somita? Could it be that the monster escaped there? "
The army was shocked. This was the first time they had encountered such a monster. In the past, monsters would wreak havoc on land, destroying everything along the way.
But this monster had actually dug a hole to bypass them. It seemed that they had to change their way of thinking about dealing with monsters.
"Quick! Investigate along the way. We must find the monster's traces! "
"Yes!"
The army carefully searched along the sand hole. They had a new microwave detector. The magnetic properties of the sand could not block this detector.
Soon, when they arrived at Somita City, they finally found a huge shadow under the city. There was also a high-energy reaction of 250,000.
"Oh my god … it's under our feet!"
"It seems that it has been there for a long time. Is the monster asleep? Why didn't it come out to destroy the city? "
This was what the researchers did not understand. This monster was too special.
After guessing, it was very likely that it was afraid of the power of the plasma cannon. Even if it was lucky enough to survive once, it would not dare to show up again.
But this guess was quickly refuted. Why didn't it just escape into the sea? Wouldn't it be waiting for us to kill it if it stayed here?
No matter how they argued, the monster was hiding under the city. There was no doubt that it was too dangerous.
Once the monster rushed out of the ground, the city would definitely be destroyed in a very short period of time. There would be countless deaths and injuries.
"We have to evacuate the people …"
"It's better if it doesn't move. This time, I want to see how it will resist the plasma cannon!"
The army took over the city. During the Monster War, the army had more power than the local government. They forced the people to leave and had to cooperate unconditionally.
But the evacuation would definitely take time. They had to hurry and send the people nearby away before the monster ran away or rushed out to harm the humans.
To them, this was a race against time. Only God knew when the monsters would rush out.
But for Lan Mu, this was too much. He was not interested in doing something as boring as destroying the city.
"Did they find me? It's slower than I thought … "
Lan Mu was almost done with his cultivation. He was lying in the sand on the ground. A few pieces of Bastet metal were stretched into a wide surface and covered his body like a quilt.
The plasma cannon waiting for the military returned without success again.
But at this moment, his spiritual power sensed the situation on the ground. A general received an urgent notice from the top.
A series of messages were transmitted. When the general heard it, Lan Mu also heard it.
"Qing Dao military town on the east coast of Xia was attacked by monsters. A total of 14 giant beasts, each more than 100 meters tall! Shenxia military town on the south coast was attacked by 17 giant beasts. The situation is critical! "
"Ohio on the west coast of America was attacked by 19 giant beasts. The helicarrier requesting support returned immediately. Fighting broke out in three military towns on the east coast …"
"Britain … requests helicarrier to return immediately."
"Southeast Asia …"
The coastlines of the four continents were full of traces of monsters. After a few years of silence, this group of monsters once again broke out into a full-scale invasion.
And it seemed that the situation was very critical. The monsters were more powerful than before.
The monsters went on a rampage. They were no longer scattered and wreaking havoc. Instead, they gathered together and attacked fiercely from multiple directions!
After Lan Mu heard these urgent messages, his first reaction was, "The apocalypse is not over."
He was very curious. What was the root cause behind the monster crisis in this world?
