Chapter 386 Madly Strengthening Beast King
Li Tianran didn't know what Han Han and Tang Su talked about that night, nor did he have the mood to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two women. What surprised Li Tianran was that Han Han's conversation was indeed very effective. Since that night, Tang Su's attitude towards Yuan Wen had undergone a noticeable change. There was no longer any sharp edge, not even a hint of hostility.
Li Tianran was happy to see this change, but he didn't know that this was the result of Han Han using him as a bargaining chip to lure Tang Su into making a promise.
Sometimes it must be said that women understand women best. If Li Tianran had done this himself, he would have forced Tang Su to cooperate in the most direct and straightforward way. Although there would be no problems in the short term, Tang Su would be like a spring. The more pressure Li Tianran put on her, the greater the reaction force she accumulated, and sooner or later she would snap, breaking everything into pieces.
Things are fine as they are now.
After solving this problem, Li Tianran finally had time to pay attention to his own development plan.
The mining of the iron ore was still proceeding in an orderly manner, the reclamation of wasteland was coming to an end and planting could begin soon, and the oil and mineral resources on Kuangsha Archipelago were also successfully mined under Lu Chi's busy work.
Now, even if Li Tianran lay motionless in the farm, these mineral resources and planting areas could provide him with a steady stream of points income, at least about seventy million a day!
Although this number seems like a lot, in reality, Li Tianran's daily expenses are equally huge. Whether it is the steel for the construction of the port, or various large-scale equipment such as large-scale sowing machines, harvesters, and irrigation pumps in the planting area, a large number of points are needed to purchase them.
Therefore, despite the income from many channels, Li Tianran's current point accumulation is only a pitiful less than two hundred million.
"We need to speed up the mining..." Li Tianran thought. When the Third Cataclysm arrives, the minerals buried underground will disappear. At that time, the iron ore on Kuangxi Island and the oil on Kuangsha Archipelago will be wiped out, and Li Tianran will lose two important sources of points income.
"It seems that God deliberately doesn't want me to be a mine owner, and wants me to be a farmer to the end."
Li Tianran smiled.
Now there is still two-thirds of the iron ore storage on Kuangxi Island left. As long as the mining efforts are stepped up, it is unrealistic to completely mine it before the arrival of the Third Cataclysm, but it is definitely possible to increase the mining volume to about eight-tenths.
There's no way, time is just too tight!
"Now there are... seven days and twenty-one hours until the Third Cataclysm arrives!" Li Tianran looked at his system interface, and the blood-red characters at the top reminded him starkly that greater danger would approach step by step.
...
EU Naval Operations Command.
The commander-in-chief, with the rank of admiral on his shoulders, looked expressionlessly at the report handed over by his subordinate, his brow gradually furrowing.
"The frequency of sea beasts' activity is increasing. In the past 72 hours, our coastal states of Leicester, De Luo, and Peters have suffered thirty-five attacks. De Luo has been hit the hardest. There are seventeen major breaches in the first layer of the shelter's protective wall, and the second layer of the protective wall has also been damaged. A large number of combat equipment has been destroyed... The soldiers have suffered heavy casualties!"
"In this operation, we found that sea beasts have been able to skillfully master heavy weapons, such as tanks and other military equipment that were once taken away by them..."
"Their growth rate is amazing. They are no longer swarming to their deaths in the face of our artillery fire like wild beasts..."
"The Beast Kings still choose to use small Beast Kings to sneak into the shelters and assassinate the leaders of the combat command. We have strengthened our defenses several times, but we still hope that the command can send Superhuman warriors as guards for the leaders as soon as possible. Ordinary soldiers are completely using their bodies to build a wall of flesh and blood when fighting against the Beast Kings' sneak attacks and assassinations. The scene is too tragic..."
"The following are the battle damage statistics for the three states..."
The commander-in-chief looked at the numbers on the report, and then looked at the photos that came with the report.
In the photos, some small Beast Kings resembling octopuses and jellyfish, their slippery bodies sticking to the cockpits of some tanks, chariots, and even helicopters, skillfully firing and driving!
An octopus is actually flying a plane! This scene looks funny, unreasonable, and ridiculous!
But looking at this ridiculous picture for a long time, a sense of fear from the depths of the soul surges into the heart.
A race that is smarter, more resilient, and has a higher learning ability than humans, and now has mastered humanity's most powerful thermal weapons.
When the Beast Kings were first born, they were like babies. Humans, this strong man, didn't take them seriously, but the growth rate of this baby was too fast. In just a few days, it grew into a teenager who could pick up a knife!
"Our defense lines are being breached, our army is being consumed... A bunch of beasts that were born less than two months ago actually defeated the warriors of the great White Eagle!" The commander-in-chief said in a deep voice, "We are the most powerful country on Blue Star, we have the most advanced weapons and combat systems, why have we been on the defensive in the war with the Beast Kings, except for the initial victory?"
The subordinate lowered his head and explained, "The Beast Kings seem to be able to control their body temperature, and our temperature-sensitive detection equipment has difficulty detecting their movements underwater. Moreover, there are Beast Kings among them that can affect large-scale electromagnetic combat systems. We have found in several battles that our weapon control systems often malfunction..."
The weapon control system malfunctioning is the most deadly thing. A missile that was originally aimed at a group of beasts suddenly blasted towards the walls of the shelter. This kind of "self-explosion" behavior is likely to lead to a defeat.
In the process of creating evolvers, both the European Union and many powerful countries in the world have discovered a problem, that is, only the genes of atavistic evolvers can be cultivated and replicated through drugs. The genes of the other three types of evolvers cannot be created using the same method at all. In other words, the birth of the other three types of evolvers depends entirely on luck.
"Can we confirm the distance at which those Beast Kings affect the weapon systems?"
"This is exactly what I am going to report to you next..." The subordinate said in a deep voice, "We confirmed a Beast King that can affect electronic systems in a tide of beasts ten days ago. At that time, its range of influence was about 120 meters, and just yesterday, that Beast King appeared again in the tide of beasts in De Luo, and this time, its range of influence was about 160 meters!"
In just ten days, the range of influence of this Beast King has increased by one-third!
The commander-in-chief's brow furrowed deeply.
What did this Beast King do to achieve such a terrifying rate of ability growth?
Is there an upper limit to this ability?
According to this rate of growth, its range of influence may reach thousands or thousands of meters soon!
If that day really comes, then what's the point of humans fighting?
