It was one in the morning.
A group of human alliance leaders had already gathered at the launch site.
Two hundred fixed launch pads and one thousand mobile missile launchers were all on standby, ready to launch at any moment.
Lin Zhan stood in the launch site's command center, looking at the launch pads before him, and said to the young Taoist:
"Brother-in-law, can we add more launch pads and launchers? What we have now is really a bit too few."
The young Taoist, wearing a thick pair of frog-eye sunglasses, looked up at Lin Zhan and said:
"Fixed launch pads, we can add at most another 100. As for launchers, we still have quite a few unassembled, but this place is only so big. Even if you assemble them, there's no place to put them."
"Let's add another 100 launch pads and assemble 500 more launchers. If it's really too crowded, we can keep them for use elsewhere, so we don't run out later."
As Lin Zhan spoke, he looked at the young Taoist with a troubled expression and said, "Also, brother-in-law, when did you become foolish? Wearing sunglasses in the middle of the night, what were you thinking?"
The young Taoist dismissively pointed to the five children behind him.
Lin Zhan turned his head and saw that all five children were wearing thick black sunglasses.
Even the little princess of the immortal race was sporting a pair.
Lin Zhan knew very well the character of these few little rascals. If Zhang Haoming were wearing sunglasses by himself, it could be considered a personal preference.
But if these six little rascals, who could swallow people without spitting out bones, were all wearing sunglasses, then something must be up.
Lin Zhan casually took off Xiao Bao's sunglasses and put them on his own: "Bao, you're already wearing your own sunglasses, so another pair is redundant. You can't handle two pairs of sunglasses, so let big brother help you."
Xiao Bao looked at Lin Zhan putting his sunglasses on his face, utterly bewildered:
"Boss, how can you say such shameless words with such conviction?"
Lin Zhan ignored Xiao Bao and simply looked up at the sky.
Then he turned to the high-ranking officials of the human alliance, smiling and saying, "Shall we... begin?"
"Begin."
"We must begin."
"We must start immediately."
Beasts with fiery tempers like Da Hei and Da Jin, as well as veteran human leaders like Xiang Yu, roared with excitement.
Seeing Lin Zhan nod, the young Taoist grinned and took out a dharma disk carved from top-grade crystals.
On it was a flame intertwined with various runes.
The young Taoist chuckled, paying no mind to the young ladies present, and directly pulled down his pants.
He pulled out his little bird and aimed it at the Source of Dan Fire, performing a 'High Mountain Flowing Water'.
With a shiver from the young Taoist, the Source of Dan Fire emitted a puff of white smoke and instantly exploded.
As soon as the Source of Dan Fire was destroyed, a series of violent explosions erupted from the demon volcano.
Not a single high-level demon, from lord to king, was left alive.
Only over 20 million Diamond and below level lava demons remained, looking at the situation with stunned expressions.
What was going on? Had all the high-level officials decided to put on a fireworks show together?
Meanwhile, in the endless void, Chang Ruo and Cao Yu, leading the old rascals of the Great Shang and 3,000 foundation-level Great Shang troops, clashed with nearly ten thousand high-level demons.
Just as Cao Yu was about to lead the charge, he witnessed a miraculous scene.
All the high-level demons, as if putting on a fireworks display, instantly self-destructed.
The scattered parts from their self-destruction splattered all over the Great Shang contingent.
Cao Yu, with a lava demon's kidney hanging from his head, looked at Chang Ruo, bewildered, and said, "Father, is this a new tactic of the demon race? Are they trying to disgust us to death?"
Chang Ruo removed the kidney from Cao Yu's head and handed it to Shang Tang behind him, saying, "It's wrapped. We'll stir-fry kidney flowers with wine when we get back tonight."
He then said to everyone, "It seems Zhan'er has launched the attack. These two boys have been planning this against the demon race for months, and it seems to have actually succeeded."
The human alliance members looked at the little chubby boy, who was not even out of breath, with utter confusion. He extinguished the Source of Dan Fire with a splash of urine. How did he come up with such a shameless idea?
The young Taoist, seeing their gazes, pouted and said with disdain:
"Don't look at me with such admiration. This was all the idea of Old Ancestor Yan Di. Think about it, if anyone else knew about this, they wouldn't have thought of such a way to break it, even if they got their hands on it." Su Dan Novel Network
"Back then, I thought about handing the dharma disk over to my elder brother for safekeeping, but Old Ancestor Yan Di didn't fancy him, so I, the capable one, had to take on the burden and personally handle this matter."
After speaking, the young Taoist looked up at everyone with pride.
Lin Zhan's face turned red with embarrassment at the young Taoist's last sentence. No matter how thick-skinned and shameless he was, he didn't have the courage to do something like this in front of a group of immortal race young ladies.
Lin Zhan nudged the young Taoist and said, "I really thank you. You always think of me for everything, don't you."
After nudging the young Taoist, Lin Zhan picked up the walkie-talkie and said:
"This is Lin Zhan. Order, launch vehicles No. 1 to No. 300, target No. 1: Demon Volcano and its connected routes, launch in a staggered pattern."
"Launch vehicles No. 301 to No. 500, target No. 2: Icebound Snow Mountain, launch."
"Reconnaissance rockets No. 1 to No. 10, launch together."
As soon as Lin Zhan finished his command, Leng Shan's voice came through the walkie-talkie.
"Order received. Launch is expected in 10 seconds."
"Initiating countdown."
Lin Zhan, along with everyone else, stared intently at the computer screen: "10, 9, ...3, 2, 1, Launch!" With a deafening roar, the rockets, trailing plumes of fire, soared into the sky, streaking towards their predetermined targets like arrows.
The people at the scene instantly became excited, especially the young Taoist, who jumped up and down on the spot.
The one who contributed the most to the missile corps was not Lin Zhan, but the young Taoist Zhang Haoming.
He had personally gathered resources for the entire missile force and spent countless nights with the weapons expert, Elder Qian, in the laboratory, building it up.
As for the human legion commanders, they had only witnessed the scene of using the No. 4 Fire Missile to start fires in the Lizardman dimension.
A comprehensive, precision strike like today's, centered on missiles, was a first for them.
Therefore, seeing such a magnificent and inspiring scene, even the veteran king-level ancestors couldn't help but wear smiles of happiness and excitement on their faces.
After all, the success of missiles meant that fewer of their subordinates would die, and victory would be more attainable.
"Report, Commander, all rockets have been launched successfully. Preparing to connect reconnaissance rockets."
"1, 2, 3... Reconnaissance rockets connected successfully."
Through the large screen in the command center, Lin Zhan and the others watched the real-time images transmitted back by the reconnaissance rockets.
