Chapter 1 The Desperate Gamble

At this moment, the entire Kuangxi Island was mobilized. Chen Hao used all the points he had originally planned to use to purchase new equipment and materials from the Mall to buy weapons and combat MENG Shi (brave warriors), completely emptying his savings for this final battle.

Almost all the steel walls surrounding Kuangxi Island were lined with various weapons. A large number of tanks and chariots were driven to open areas, their muzzles raised, engines roaring, like a steel torrent.

With a flash of light, waves of adult-level and tank-level MENG Shi appeared before Chen Hao.

"You have recycled 100,000 tons of luo yan (industrial grade salt), gaining points..."

"You have recycled 100,000 tons of silver ore (ore grade), gaining points..."

Chen Hao walked through the storage warehouse on the Kuangsha Islands, a warehouse as large as an island, filled with resource materials obtained from various countries around the world. Some were minerals, some were weapons. At this moment, with Chen Hao's footsteps, large swaths of items flashed with light, disappearing from their original locations and turning into a series of numerical points in the Mall.

In just a few minutes, Chen Hao had once again obtained nearly 10 billion points through the recycling system, and all it cost him was less than one percent of the reserves in his massive warehouse storage!

These points were quickly exchanged again for tanks, warships, warplanes, and mecha MENG Shi!

According to Chen Hao's previous calculations, heavy weapons such as tanks and warships cost about 30% less to manufacture using assembly lines than to directly exchange for them in the Mall. However, at this time, Chen Hao did not care about the 30% loss. The items in the points Mall were indeed expensive, but compared to assembly lines, the Mall's output speed was the biggest advantage.

There was no purchase limit, no cooldown time. As long as you had enough points, you could even buy a million tanks at once!

As long as Chen Hao had enough points, the Mall was an endless arsenal.

"You have recycled 300,000 tons of tungsten ore, gaining..."

As the pleasant notification sound kept ringing, a brand new army had already appeared before Chen Hao. With a wave of Chen Hao's hand, this army left the area in a mighty manner, joining the combat team in front.

And in Chen Hao's warehouse, there were now a large number of vacancies.

"These resources were originally prepared for long-term development and the construction of a powerful nation-level force, but I'm throwing them all out now!" Chen Hao looked at the departing army with a serious expression: "Beast tide, come on! Destroy this army, and I can immediately create a new army. In this battle, I'm willing to empty my family fortune and will not bow my head to anyone!"

In Chen Hao's frenzied recycling and purchasing, he created a sea-air joint force composed of a large number of warships, warplanes, and adult MENG Shi!

This force, when dispatched, could even destroy a small country in a short period of time.

This consumed nearly half of the reserves in this giant warehouse.

Chen Hao walked out of the warehouse, using gravity manipulation to make himself weightless and ascend into the air. He looked down at the sea. On the dozens of islands of the Kuangsha Islands, he had a total of fourteen such warehouses!

Yes, relying on these resources, he could create twenty-eight such sea-air joint forces in a short period of time.

This was the accumulation of resources he had acquired by relying on the Lv4 fruit and the status of the fourth permanent directorate, as well as the treasury of the Mofila Kingdom. Facts proved that when the resources of multiple countries were concentrated in one force, it would be an extremely astonishing astronomical figure. Even with Kuangxi Island's continuous weapon assembly lines, these fourteen warehouses still possessed a terrifying storage capacity.

The reason why Chen Hao had not recycled them all into points before was because he wanted to use these resources to create greater value, but now that the enemy was at the gate, he decided to release all his power.

...

The pioneers fighting fiercely with the beast tide on the Kuangxi Island defense line suddenly saw a large number of warplanes and ships joining the battlefield again, greatly reducing their pressure, and they immediately felt relieved.

At the same time, a voice sounded in their intercom headsets.

It was Chen Hao.

"Warriors, I have a message to tell you all."

"We are about to face the most tragic war. More than six million monsters will arrive at our defense line in three hours!"

As Chen Hao's words rang out, the pioneers standing on the steel walls and warship decks could hardly believe their ears. One pioneer, who had just beheaded a mutant beast, was stunned in place and was almost successfully ambushed by a beast king. If it hadn't been for his comrades helping him kill the enemy, he might have been dragged into the beast tide below!

This couldn't be blamed on the pioneer; the number was too shocking!

In the long history of the war between humans and the Beast King race, this might be the first time the Beast King race had dispatched such a large-scale beast tide to attack a human force. Even the European Union, the world's strongest country, had never received such treatment.

And Kuangxi Island had been established for less than half a year, and the Pioneer Corps had been established for less than two months. Even with extremely strong combat power, but... that was six million!

Many pioneers felt their heart rate accelerate and their mouths dry at this moment.

At this time, 600,000 beast tides had already surrounded the Kuangxi Island defense line, and everyone was caught in a stalemate. What would happen with the addition of six million monsters?

Would the defense line collapse instantly?

This was the thought that surged in the minds of all pioneers at this moment.

Some even felt as if all the strength in their bodies had been instantly drained. This was not fear, but despair.

As pioneers, the most elite evolvers in the human race, pioneers had the confidence to face any enemy of the same level, but the other side's numbers were too large, so large that it made people unable to muster the desire to fight!

"Moreover, in this operation, there will be no reinforcements from any country, or even fire support. We will have to rely entirely on ourselves to fight."

Chen Hao stood on the steel wall, his expression serious, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone is waiting to see us make a joke, waiting for us to bow our heads and beg them for help..."

"Yes, if we bow our heads to them, we will have a greater chance of victory, but... I refuse."

"Because everything we have so far has been won and fought for by ourselves!"

"Whether it is status, reputation, huge resources, or the right to survive! These are all obtained from our knives, not from kowtowing and begging others! It wasn't before, and it definitely won't be in the future!"
