Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1589: The Contempt of the Superior Race

In one corner of East Sea City, the clamor of battle had reached a fever pitch, with fighter jets and stray artillery shells filling the sky.

The Mist Valley warriors had unleashed brutal slaughter throughout East Sea City.

Even the most ordinary Azure Armor warriors displayed combat prowess on par with human captain-level elites!

What Transcendents, what elite soldiers, in their presence, were nothing more than slightly tougher ants.

On the flip side, fortunately, East Sea City possessed the most top-tier armed forces in the entire Huaxu Nation at this moment.

This, at last, managed to somewhat slow their advance.

However, even if they could hold back the ordinary Azure Armor warriors, no one could lock onto the position of that Silver Armor figure.

He rode the River of Gore, charging straight toward the northwest.

In that direction, Qinglong had already transformed into his Phantom Beast form, the [Weak Water Glazed Dragon God], with Zhuque riding on his back as the two rushed urgently toward this location.

Zhuque had now fully assumed her combat stance, her jet-black long hair transformed by her ability into an icy blue, streaming backward in the wind.

She said to Qinglong, "The ones coming are said to be mysterious creatures from Mist Valley! Could it be related to that incident back then?"

Only the two of them understood the meaning behind those words.

Last time when Mist Valley erupted, it was she and Qinglong who led the team into the valley.

But after going underground, Zhuque nearly died in battle. In the end, it was Qinglong who risked his life charging into the abyss to save everyone.

In that battle, Qinglong obtained a portion of God Essence.

Perhaps it was at that moment that they caught the attention of the mysterious existence beneath Mist Valley.

Qinglong fell silent for a moment before slowly speaking, "God Essence is an extremely precious resource. I guessed they wouldn't let us have it so easily. But I never imagined it would trigger a full-scale war!"

"If I had known it would lead to such consequences, I would rather have never obtained it in the first place!"

Zhuque shook her head, her gaze cold and sharp as she stared at the distant artillery fire.

"Saying all this now is meaningless. At this point, every major power in the world is scrambling for God Essence, trying to create more Epsilon-class Transcendents. We did nothing wrong. We just never expected the creatures of the underground world to launch a large-scale invasion of human territory!"

Suddenly, Qinglong's eyes sharpened, his massive body halting abruptly mid-air. He curled his frame, his dragon head staring fixedly ahead!

"Someone's coming!"

He said in a low voice.

Zhuque looked up toward the front, only to see against the dark night, a colossal River of Gore flying toward them from the horizon like a crimson silk ribbon.

Standing atop the River of Gore was a humanoid creature clad entirely in silver armor, four to five meters tall, with a long, thick, sturdy tail.

Both their hearts shook violently. Now they could be certain—these were beings from the mysterious civilization beneath Mist Valley!

Zhuque's hands, clad in a pair of specially crafted silver gauntlets, began to manifest blue ice crystals. She was ready for battle, prepared to deliver a devastating blow to the enemy at any moment!

Although she had yet to break through that threshold, with the special ability of [Ice Flame], if the opponent let their guard down, even an Epsilon-class would be affected.

However, the first thing she did was not attack—it was contacting Xuanwu, who was far away in the coastal waters.

"Xuanwu, the enemy has already reached East Sea City!"

The Silver Armor figure stopped before the two of them, his gaze calmly fixed on Qinglong's colossal form.

Despite the enormous disparity in size between them, the way the Silver Armor looked at Qinglong was like a giant gazing down upon a weak little vermin.

Xuanwu's voice came through: "If I descend onto land, my abilities will be severely restricted. You two probe for more intel on the enemy first. I'll build up my power and support you with my Xuan Light Cannon!"

Zhuque felt helpless inside, but she understood that Xuanwu's combat effectiveness on water versus on land was vastly different.

After landing, Xuanwu's combat power would barely surpass Qinglong's.

The key was to probe the enemy's strength and the nature of their abilities.

The Silver Armor figure crossed his arms, showing no intention of attacking at all.

Suddenly, a string of "gibberish" sounds emanated from beneath his mask. The sounds rapidly shifted and morphed, repeating this process several times until they transformed into the language of the Huaxu Nation.

"This language seems to be the one you use."

Qinglong and Zhuque were stunned. Not only was this being intelligent, but it appeared to be an existence even more advanced than humanity.

It had mastered the human language with such astonishing speed.

Qinglong asked in a deep voice, "Just who exactly are you? Why have you come to East Sea City to slaughter our people and destroy our city!"

Hearing this, the Silver Armor figure suddenly smiled faintly.

He spread his right hand and said, "Oh? Isn't it you people who first invaded our Wuluan Empire and disturbed us time and again? Moreover, you killed our envoy."

Qinglong was momentarily at a loss for how to respond.

Indeed, ever since they discovered the mysterious Mist Valley, every faction had treated it as a colossal treasure trove. They had even begun fighting over who got to claim ownership of it.

As for the mysterious creature civilization beneath Mist Valley, no one had ever bothered to consider their perspective.

If they discovered it was a weak civilization, what would the consequences be? Without a doubt, they would simply wipe them out and plunder all their resources!

Still, Qinglong managed to say, "We did not kill your so-called envoy!"

The Silver Armor's tone remained slow and indifferent.

"Don't misunderstand. I simply find it amusing that beings as weak as you have managed to develop intelligence and civilization. This is also my first time conversing with your race, so I'm willing to exchange a few extra words with you."

"But in truth, your words and your thoughts hold zero interest to me."

"I'm simply here to exterminate you."

As he spoke, he raised his right hand, and a sphere of blood coalesced in his palm.

"Both of you carry the aura of Mist Valley on your persons! I'll capture you two first and take you back for study!"

The moment the Silver Armor figure finished speaking, Qinglong and Zhuque simultaneously felt their bodies begin to slip from their control.

Their blood flow was accelerating violently, and under the influence of a strange energy, it seemed to want to burst through their blood vessels and explode out of their bodies!

Qinglong let out a thunderous roar, his entire body radiating golden light. His form became almost translucent, like a delicate piece of fine porcelain.

Meanwhile, Zhuque let out a sharp cry, her long hair shooting skyward as blue Ice Flame instantly engulfed her entire body.

That bizarre invasive force was sealed out by the two of them, temporarily averting the crisis of exploding from within.
