You Say You Believe in Science, But You Fly on a Sword - Chapter 103
Chapter 103: Traitor
Western China, originally bordered a group of “Stans. ” However, this group of “Stans” had weak military strength and no powerful Sects; their entire Cultivation World and Mortal Realm were annihilated.
Now, in this originally complex terrain, a Ghost Race Army of nearly ten thousand is hidden.
This army is based on the Ghost Race’s trump card, the Genetically Modified Troops, and further strengthened by the bl00d sacrifice of nearly one hundred thousand Ghost Race people, resulting in an army considered invincible.
Their Gene Locks are largely opened, nearly matching the elite Genetically Modified Troops of the Ghost Race’s heyday; their average combat power is around the Condensation Core Realm and Minor Ascension Realm.
An army composed of nearly ten thousand cultivators at the Condensation Core Realm and Minor Ascension Realm, once they strike, the impact would be earth-shattering.
However, most of China’s cultivators are gathered near the East Sea; no one knows about the situation here.
Nuclear Fusion Launch Towers are generally unguarded, unless the area is experiencing large-scale warfare. Therefore, even though the East Sea is fiercely contested, the Western Launch Towers remain unguarded.
If someone were to circle the eight Western Launch Towers, they would find that high-concentration explosives have been buried at the base of four of them; once detonated, the consequences are unpredictable.
“What are these people doing? ”
At the East Sea Launch Tower, Zhang Keqiang yawned, looking at the dense but disappearing Ghost Race Army at sea: “They can’t break through, so they come here for excitement? What’s so bad about being alive? ”
Watching the Ghost Race disappear en masse is like playing a matching game. Initially exciting, it becomes boring after a while.
After yawning, he looked towards the cultivators gathered by the sea.
Xie Yingqing led the group, the rest being various Big Shots. Some practiced Sword Flight, some wielded swords, and some carried Long Spears. Some looked human, while others had strange appearances, likely legendary Demon Cultivators.
They were all waiting for the Genetically Modified Troops, without a doubt.
But they were destined to wait in vain, as the Ghost Commander had no intention of deploying Genetically Modified Troops here. Or rather, the Ghost Race no longer possessed Genetically Modified Troops.
The East Sea was fiercely contested; the West was not at peace either.
“Let’s act when things get more lively over there. ”
Wang Feng, with a muscular build, was instructing his Junior Brothers: “Blow up these towers; the shield will definitely break! We’ll escape immediately when it breaks! The sky is vast for birds to fly, and the sea is wide for fish to leap; they won’t catch us! Detonate the bombs at my command. Any questions? ”
“Yes! ”
“Speak! ”
“It’s ‘the sea is wide for fish to leap,’ not ‘the pot is wide for fish to leap. ‘”
Wang Feng: …
Did he eat too much fish, causing this?
“Don’t worry about such details! ”
Wang Feng said, “Any other questions? ”
“No! ”
“Since there are none, hide yourselves, prepare your things, and make it easy to escape! ”
The cannon fire at the East Sea was still loud; nearly an hour and a half had passed since the battle began. The Ghost Race’s cannon fire had lasted an hour and a half, the China’s Shield had withstood it for an hour and a half, and the Launch Tower’s gun barrels had fired for an hour and a half.
Both sides had consumed countless ammunition. For other nations, let alone withstanding the damage, such ammunition consumption alone would exhaust them.
The people on the shore were also captivated, repeatedly exclaiming.
“Our nation’s foundation is truly strong! ”
“Exactly! How many bullets and shells have been used after so long? It feels like several tons! ”
“Action! ”
With Wang Feng’s command, a huge explosion rocked the West. The bombs beneath four Launch Towers detonated, thick smoke obscuring the line of sight for hundreds of meters, rising along the Launch Towers and obscuring their light.
The people around the West were startled.
“What exploded? ”
“Who’s causing trouble? Don’t let me catch you! ”
“Damn it, I was watching the livestream; who’s trying to die? What kind of earthquake is this? ”
The tremor lasted only a few moments before disappearing, the smoke quickly fading from view.
Public attention remained focused on the East Sea battlefield.
However, after the smoke cleared, the expected collapse of the Launch Towers and the cracking of the Shield did not occur; the transparent Shield remained intact. Blue and white Formation Runes occasionally drifted through the air, indicating something: nothing happened.
This scene left Wang Feng and his Junior Brothers stunned.
A gentle breeze swept by, and Wang Feng—the head of the extremist organization, the initiator and executor of the nuclear fusion launch tower bombing plan, and a mass murderer—vanished into thin air.
“Bo… Boss! ”
The Junior Brothers had no time to be stunned or shocked, as a large number of police cars suddenly appeared around them.
The cars were full of Armed Police officers, who immediately arrested the extremist organization members who had failed to detonate the Launch Towers.
They faced a possible future of long imprisonment, or even death.
As the breeze dissipated, Wang Feng descended from the sky inside the first Western Launch Tower, landing heavily on the ground.
“Oh, you’re here? ”
Su Qin’an took a sip of water and smiled, “You’re later than I expected! ”
Wang Feng remained silent, watching the two people in front of him vigilantly.
He recognized Su Qin’an, a frequent television personality.
But the other middle-aged man was…
“Wang Feng, you’ve been at large for so many years; it’s time you were caught. ”
The Minister of Public Security sneered, “Your usual antics are one thing, but planting bombs at China’s nuclear fusion launch towers at this time—what were you trying to do? Be a traitor? ”
At this point, Wang Feng realized he couldn’t escape, so he hardened his attitude: “Traitor? Birds choose their trees to roost. You want to fight to the death with the Ghost Race; why drag me along to die? What are your chances of winning against the Ghost Race? ”
“Chances of winning aren’t decided by words but by fighting! ”
Su Qin’an said coldly, “The hope of survival is always fought for, not earned by being a dog for the Alien Race like you! ”
“Alien Race? So what if it’s an Alien Race? I know you, Su Qin’an, the great Academician, a cultivator. Of course you don’t understand the thoughts of ordinary people like us! ”
Wang Feng snorted disdainfully, “You’re detached from the world, aren’t you? The Ghost Race can allow us mortals to defy fate and become superior beings! What’s wrong with an Alien Race? Do I have to live as an ordinary person, growing old and dying? If I don’t do this today, someone else will tomorrow! You, and you! ”
Wang Feng pointed at Su Qin’an and the Minister of Public Security: “You can’t stop it! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! I’ll wait for the day you despair! ”
“Then you… huh? ”
Su Qin’an was about to scold him when he suddenly sensed a very powerful aura outside the Shield: “Come, take him away first. ”
“What’s wrong? ”
The Minister of Public Security was dumbfounded: “You’re not going to scold him; you want me to? ”
“It’s not about scolding; someone’s coming. ”
Su Qin’an sneered, “They really know how to seize opportunities! ”
Indeed, while the East Sea was fiercely contested, the Bl00d Sacrifice Army left by the Ghost Race in the West was about to appear.
They were originally thousands of kilometers away from the Western Plasma Shield; once they acted, they moved like lightning, reaching the Plasma Shield in a minute.
The Minister of Public Security glanced at Su Qin’an, frowned, took out a rope, tied up Wang Feng, and took him into the police car.
This matter was settled; the rest was Su Qin’an’s responsibility.
After the Minister of Public Security left, Su Qin’an took out his cell phone and made a leisurely voice call.
“Hey? Wife? Can you hear me? ”
“There are people here! Who’s your wife! ”
“It’s fine, it’s even better with people around! ”
“Get to the point! ”
“Send some strong fighters; there’s something good in the West. ”
“Coming right away. “
