Chapter 709 No Need to Wait Any Longer

Chapter 151 The Wrath of the Apostle

The Marine Apostle was furious. Its gaze was fixed on the mecha warrior who had nearly cleaved it in two, and it immediately recognized that the weapon in the opponent's hand was forged from the fangs of the Sky Apostle.

Both being secondary evolvers, the Sky Apostle was a brain-type evolution, while the Marine Apostle was a divine-descent type. Logically speaking, the Sky Apostle's physical strength should be inferior to the Marine Apostle's. Even mixed with other rare mineral alloys, its fangs should not have been able to break through the Marine Apostle's defense.

But... there are always exceptions.

The Sky Apostle's third fang was particularly sharp and tough, several times stronger than its other teeth. This wasn't due to secondary evolution, but rather the advantage of the Sky Apostle's species.

The Sky Apostle belonged to the ancient Skywing Dragon race. Because these creatures didn't have powerful forelimbs like other creatures, they would directly use their teeth to tear open the thick hides of their prey when hunting. However, initially, the teeth of these creatures weren't particularly sharp and found it difficult to tear through the scales of some large creatures, forcing them to often abandon already captured prey.

To adapt to the increasingly harsh environment, over a long period of evolution, the Skywing Dragons gradually evolved a fang specifically for tearing open the scales of large creatures. This fang was connected to the bone and was several times, even ten times, stronger, longer, and sharper than other teeth!

Just like humans, through skillful operation of tools and long periods of change, the dexterity of human fingers is the highest among all creatures. Even some primary evolved beasts are far less dexterous with their forelimbs than ordinary humans!

This is a racial advantage, unrelated to the path of evolution.

Even the brain-evolved Sky Apostle's third fang was enough to tear open the body of the divine-descent evolved Marine Apostle!

When Li Tianran examined the Sky Apostle's remains, he discovered the existence of this fang and immediately had it forged into a weapon that could be used by the mecha warriors, hoping it would have a sure-kill effect in future wars.

"You dare... to forge the Apostle's body into weapons..."

The Marine Apostle was enraged, not only because of the pain in its body, but also because of Li Tianran's actions.

In its view, although Li Tianran killed the Sky Apostle, it was through trickery!

Essentially, Li Tianran was still a weak, primary-evolved life form. Genetically, he was just an ant!

And the Apostles are gods!

Even stone statues made from the flesh and blood of secondary-evolved creatures could make Li Tianran tremble.

But now, he dared to create weapons and tools from the Apostle's body!

This was a blatant humiliation.

Misery loves company; the Marine Apostle was probably feeling this way.

"Awooo!"

The Marine Apostle's three heads screamed in unison, and terrifying sound waves spread across the battlefield. The horde of beasts and secondary-sequence followers behind it, hearing its roar, charged forward like madmen, enduring the artillery fire, unafraid of being blown to pieces in the next second.

The Marine Apostle roared frantically; at this moment, this terrifying creature from ancient times finally erupted completely.

"Not good... everyone take cover immediately!" At this time, Cha Kaijin, who had been closely monitoring the Marine Apostle's movements, shouted in alarm.

He felt an unbelievably powerful aura gradually spreading from the Marine Apostle. He had a premonition that the Marine Apostle's counterattack would be earth-shattering!

When is a proud ancient behemoth most terrifying?

When its dignity is challenged, when its life is threatened!

The mecha warrior's attack just now almost severed its body, and the giant spear forged from dragon fangs made it feel humiliated!

The Marine Apostle's massive body began to rampage across the battlefield, like an out-of-control locomotive. Around it, numerous terrifying air fissures spread in all directions.

The earth shattered!

The entire battlefield was like a terrifying earthquake!

Several mecha warriors were blown away on the spot.

When the evolver troops charged forward, they were annihilated on the spot with almost no resistance.

Buzz!

The five mecha warriors in burst mode charged up again. Their bodies were constantly disintegrating, but each attack left heavy wounds on the Marine Apostle. Especially the warrior wielding the dragon-fang giant spear; his attacks were the most effective. In just a dozen attacks, the Marine Apostle's body had become scarred.

Inside the command room, everyone, including Li Zhi, stared intently at the monitor screen, their breathing becoming increasingly labored.

"There's a chance... there's a chance to kill it!" A general's eyes showed excitement as he clenched his fist tightly.

At this time, there were still three minutes left until the time Li Zhi had agreed upon!

On the battlefield, sharp howls continued to sound, and at this time, the mission of the evolver troops had changed from besieging the Marine Apostle to intercepting the beast horde for the mecha warriors.

Since the Marine Apostle had unleashed a terrifying roar earlier, the beast horde that had been intercepted before was now rushing in madly. The artillery fire from within the defense line could no longer stop them.

To prevent these beasts from causing trouble for the mecha warriors, Cha Kaijin led his men to form another defensive line, blocking the front of the beast tide.

"That level of battle... is indeed not something we can interfere with..." Cha Kaijin glanced at the location of the Marine Apostle and the mecha warriors. The ground was collapsing, and dust was rising thousands of meters high. It was truly hard to imagine that a creature could create such a spectacle!

Boom!

Suddenly, a brilliant flame burst open in the air, and countless scorching steel parts rained down.

It was a mecha warrior in burst mode that had been destroyed; the machine disintegrated in mid-air.

"Awooo!"

The Marine Apostle reappeared. Both horns on its goat head had been chopped off, and a hideous wound had been cut across the face of its female head. Only the snake head remained intact, very well protected.

It used Roaring Divine Descent to increase its attack power, and its giant tail swung, smashing another mecha warrior in burst mode to pieces.

"Can we really defeat it?" On the battlefield, an evolved warrior felt somewhat hopeless. He looked at the beast horde close at hand, and then at the powerful, demon-like Marine Apostle, and suddenly felt a sense of despair, a negative emotion that made him want to drop the battle blade and die.

"Don't be distracted!" Cha Kaijin roared, slashing a sea beast that had rushed over next to him, and shouted angrily at the evolved warrior, "Pull yourself together!"

In fact, it wasn't just this evolved warrior; as the war progressed to this point, morale and military discipline were declining sharply.

Everyone had little hope for victory in this war.

"Leader, it seems we won't be going back today..."

A pioneer wiped the blood from his eyes, stood in front of Cha Kaijin with a wry smile, "I'm so tired that I can barely lift my blade."

The beast horde in front was endless, seemingly impossible to kill.

Even Cha Kaijin felt somewhat desperate.

"Even if we die, we will die in battle, not wait for death." Cha Kaijin took a deep breath, patted his comrade on the shoulder, and strode toward the beast horde in front.

The battlefield was in chaos.

Thirty seconds later, the Marine Apostle crushed another mecha warrior.

Its momentum had reached its peak, and the endless beast horde behind it had surged forward.

Only three thousand members of the evolver corps survived, putting up a final desperate resistance.

"Die!"

The Marine Apostle's three heads roared venomously at the same time. It was covered in blood, but its speed and strength were increasing, and even mecha warriors in burst mode found it difficult to withstand a single attack.

Seeing this scene, the originally excited mood in the command room gradually disappeared.

"Commander-in-chief, the beast horde has begun to break through the fire blockade. Do we need to increase firepower to cut the battlefield?" Someone couldn't help but ask.

On the battlefield, a large number of beast hordes had broken through the fire blockade, causing serious damage to the evolver troops.

"There's no need for that anymore." Li Zhi took a deep breath and shook his head, "Now, there are two minutes and thirty seconds left!"

...

"Die, you bastard!" Cha Kaijin forcefully chopped off the head of a sea beast, and at the same time, his left arm was torn off by a secondary-sequence follower.

Blood spurted out, and the intense pain almost made him faint.

He looked around, and the number of comrades who could stand around him was decreasing, while the number of beast hordes breaking through the fire blockade was increasing, but the firepower within the defense line was becoming increasingly sparse.

Cha Kaijin didn't know what Li Zhi was thinking, but felt that the ammunition in the defense line was running out and couldn't support the existence of the fire line.

In fact, the key point of today's war was not the number of beast tides, but the Marine Apostle.

As long as the mecha warriors could kill the Marine Apostle, then no matter how many beast tides there were, they would only retreat. If they couldn't kill the Marine Apostle, then even without a single sea beast to pursue, the Marine Apostle itself could forcibly invade this giant city!

Cha Kaijin turned his gaze to the battlefield of the Marine Apostle and the mecha warriors.

At this time, the five mecha warriors who had previously activated burst mode had all been defeated by the Marine Apostle, and the dragon-fang giant spear had been passed on to a new mecha warrior.

"There are only less than ten mecha warriors left..." Cha Kaijin smiled wryly.

After fighting to this point, the enemy's casualties were severe, and the Marine Apostle was becoming more and more terrifying, more and more suffocating, and still in its peak state.

It seems that there is no suspense about the outcome of today's war.

This giant city may be completely breached in a few hours...

Boom!

With a bang, another mecha warrior was shattered by the Marine Apostle's giant tail.

Inside the command room, Li Zhi shifted his gaze away from the satellite screen and said, "There's no need to wait any longer, prepare to launch nuclear weapons!"

"Notify everyone, enable the second-generation nuclear weapon, covering the entire battlefield outside the defense line! No need to identify our personnel, indiscriminate strikes!"
