Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1592: The Colossal Beast
Previously on Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies...
The Black-White Commander flew to a spot near the impact point of the space-based weapon and looked up toward the high sky, his eyes filled with vigilance.
He didn't even dare get too close to that attack point, afraid he might get caught in the blast himself.
"General, are you alright?"
The Black-White Commander contacted the Silver Armor.
After a moment, a voice came through: "I'm fine!"
The Silver Armor's body flew out of the crater formed by the space-based weapon. Although the armor on his body was somewhat deformed, he was still alive.
But anyone could sense the rage surging from him, like a tide of darkness threatening to swallow all of East Sea City!
It was at this moment that Qinglong noticed the dark red skin revealed beneath his shattered armor.
It was skin completely different from that of humans—crimson, tough, like sun-dried animal hide, covered in patches of small bumps.
Qinglong's gaze turned grave: "Just as Chaos said back then, a lizard-like existence? So it really is a creature from another civilization!"Even the space-based weapon had failed to kill the Silver Armor, which sent a chill of dread through both Xuanwu and Qinglong's hearts.
That kind of powerful weapon couldn't be fired without restriction either. Due to its enormous output, it required cooling time between uses.
Still, with the two of them fighting together against one, they weren't entirely without a chance of victory.
What's more, this was East Sea City—if they disregarded the consequences and launched heavy weapon strikes, that would help somewhat as well.
But at that very moment, the Silver Armor turned his head away, no longer looking at Qinglong.
His eyes were fixed dead on Xuanwu. Beneath his shattered mask, his crimson right eye was exposed.
He realized that the great sea monster in the ocean was the main force of the human camp.
And being attacked again and again, reduced to such a miserable state, had utterly enraged him!
"Leave this one to you. Try to take him alive if you can. If not, taking his corpse will do!"
The moment the Silver Armor finished speaking, he rode the River of Gore and shot toward Xuanwu in the blink of an eye!
Qinglong stared in disbelief. They had been fighting all this time, and he had believed his life was in danger—yet the enemy's main commander had actually fled?!
The Black-White Commander watched the Silver Armor leave, then turned his head to look at Qinglong.
"Will you come on your own, or should I make the first move?"
Qinglong's gaze darkened.
He couldn't beat the enemy's main commander, but could he really not even handle a second-in-command?
"ROAR!!"
He let out a furious bellow, opened his massive jaws, and lunged at the Black-White Commander, who was like an ant in comparison to his size!
...
Neon Harbor, the naval base of the Colombia Ocean Fleet.
This was destined to be an extraordinary night.
In a season where snow fell every day like deep winter, thunderclaps kept exploding across the sky, as if heralding something about to arrive.
Yet Cadillus, the captain of Hell's Lock and a Rear Admiral in the navy, continued to enjoy his life tonight.
Inside his villa, underwear and prophylactics were strewn messily everywhere, and the floor was covered in empty liquor bottles.
He lay on a giant round bed, where a dozen scantily clad—or completely naked—women formed a colorful mosaic, sprawled haphazardly around him.
Cadillus lay atop a cushion of flesh, his muscular upper body covered in coarse hair.
He wore a look of utter contentment, indulging in a life of drunken decadence.
"BOOM!!"
A thunderclap struck outside the window, illuminating the night sky.
Cadillus looked out the window and suddenly his smile faded.
For some reason, he sensed danger approaching.
Cadillus climbed out of the pile of women and walked naked to the window. In the distance, the black ocean heaved with waves, as if something terrifying was about to draw near.
He felt a inexplicable restlessness—a feeling that hadn't surfaced in a long time.
The last time was when he went to Edo City and encountered those three monsters in black robes.
"Damn it, why do I keep feeling like something's going to happen tonight!"
He rubbed his brow forcefully, then walked into the bathroom and relieved himself directly into the toilet.
As an Epsilon-class Transcendent capable of controlling water, he easily flushed most of the alcohol from his system, then picked up a random woman's thong from the floor and pulled it on.
While casually getting dressed, he dialed Canero's number.
"Hey, little Can!"
"Captain, is something wrong?"
"Damn it, I don't know. I just feel like something's about to happen. Isn't that weird? I was just lying on top of a woman's belly sleeping."
"You mean, enemies might be attacking?"
Canero found it a bit baffling.
Who would dare attack a Colombia naval port? That would be no different from courting death!
Back in the last century, some deranged nation had already proven with their own actions just how foolish such a thing was.
So now, they could only exist as Colombia's puppets.
Canero thought for a moment, then suddenly spoke: "Oh, by the way, tonight, two of our warships near Star Island were destroyed. Think it might be related to that?"
"Who cares! Just stay alert."
Cadillus said.
"Alright, since you've said that, I'll go take a look."
Canero ended the call, but he didn't cast the matter aside.
As a professional soldier, he was very disciplined. His outwardly carefree demeanor didn't mean he took his naval duties lightly.
Especially now, since he had just received the intelligence about the Mist Valley incident.
Canero came out of the command center, carrying his oversized sniper rifle that was taller than a person, and took the elevator up to the tall observation tower.
He raised his sniper rifle and slowly swept the sea around the harbor through the optical-assisted scope.
The sea surface was calm, black tides slowly surging, but nothing was visible.
A faint azure light flickered from the depths of his eyes, and his field of vision instantly expanded by dozens of times!
Ability, [Watcher], expanded his field of vision and granted him the power of x-ray sight.
Even beneath the deep, dark sea, he could see through the things hidden under the waves.
And with just that one glance, Canero's face suddenly changed!
Beneath the pitch-dark waters, he saw an unimaginably colossal creature heading straight for the naval base with the current!
A monstrous being of immense size, far exceeding a hundred meters, seemed to sense someone's prying gaze and opened its enormous pitch-black eyes.
It locked eyes with the distant Canero, utterly devoid of emotion.
Canero couldn't help but take two steps back, and then, at the very first moment, he sent a voice message to Cadillus.
"Cadillus, stop messing around! A terrifying monster has appeared at the naval base!"
As if responding to his words, beneath what had been a calm sea surface, a massive shadow appeared about a dozen nautical miles in front of the naval base.
In front of it, even the largest displacement warships looked as small as toys.
