The Ultimate War Of The Apocalypse-Chapter 633 - 626: A Respite

Everywhere a metal hydrogen explosion occurred, no matter what kind of monster it was, they are now reduced to dust and bone. The 59 modification unleashed a salvo, creating a large monster vacuum zone.

The sound of a tsunami suddenly rose, then abruptly ceased.

After three Mechas cleaned up the scattered monsters within the fire blockade, the battlefield once again became quiet.

"Establish a Circular Defense Position! Dense personnel, dense firepower, working in conjunction with the Mechas, fast, fast!"

The roar of Ram rang out once more, and a batch of Sanitation Worker soldiers, who had just been fighting against the Solar System, poured out from the underground shelter, piling up all the weapons they could use at the entrance to the passage.

The spacecraft in the sky made no move, and no new monsters were dropped, which was not in line with the habits of the Serpent People.

Gao Yuan looked at Xiang Weiguo. "Why would the Serpent People stop? I have never encountered this before; once the Serpent People’s attack begins, it is not possible to pause."

Xiang Weiguo shook his head, speaking softly, "I don’t know; I have never seen this before either."

Gao Yuan looked at the Serpent People’s spacecraft, then he felt that the reason they could still hold on was because of those metal hydrogen shells.

"The kind of shells fired by the 59 modification just now, how many do we have?"

Xiang Weiguo was silent for a moment, then he said softly, "I’m not a scientist, I don’t know too many of the principles, but I heard the scientists previously got the process of making metal hydrogen wrong."

"Got it wrong? What do you mean?"

"Previously, scientists wanted to use metal hydrogen as a containment reactor for a plasma to achieve controlled nuclear fusion. But after controlled nuclear fusion became a reality, they discovered that metal hydrogen is a byproduct of controlled nuclear fusion. As long as we want, as long as the controlled nuclear fusion reaction continues, we will be able to create metal hydrogen from hydrogen gas. Sounds incredible, doesn’t it?"

Gao Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I don’t understand, so does that mean we have a lot of shells?"

"A lot, of course, the production speed can’t keep up with this rate of consumption, but we certainly still have many."

Gao Yuan sighed with relief, then he looked up at the sky and said, "Do the Serpent People have other means of attack? If the monsters are ineffective, will their spacecraft join the battle?"

Xiang Weiguo shook his head, "I don’t know; the observations so far suggest they will not. These small spacecraft seem to function only as transports and to release Electromagnetic Pulses, but as for more means of attack, we haven’t discovered any so far."

Gao Yuan felt that he had to ask Xinghe about this issue and just then, Xinghe’s Mecha emerged from the passage.

"They will not; these are purely transport craft. The Serpent People here are just a scientific expedition team; they do not possess strong offensive capabilities. Of course, the mother ships of the Serpent People, even by using the capabilities essential for space flight, have many that could be used as weapons, but these transport ships do not have such capabilities."

Xinghe obviously heard the conversation between Gao Yuan and Xiang Weiguo and provided timely answers.

Still filled with many doubts, Gao Yuan spoke quietly, "I don’t want to jinx it like a crow, but what would be the consequence if the Serpent People used that technique that can instantaneously annihilate flying objects on us?" frёeωebɳovel.com

Xinghe spoke slowly, "It cannot be used on the ground, as such waves would be quickly absorbed by the earth. Perhaps the surface of the land would become pulverized, but the Serpent People’s spacecraft cannot withstand the loss of that energy. The energy of the Serpent People is very precious and won’t be wasted on ground attacks, which would affect their interstellar travel capabilities. For a scientific expedition team, the Serpent People do not have the luxury of wasting energy."

Compared to the somewhat cumbersome Earth Mechas, Xinghe’s Mechas were slender, bright, radiating a soft glow, and full of beauty.

But Xinghe’s Mechas were perhaps too dazzling.

Gao Yuan felt uneasy in his heart, and said to Xinghe, "You should go inside. You’re too conspicuous here, too bright."

The luminance of Xinghe’s mecha suddenly faded. Not only that, it seemed to blend into the darkness so well that even though it was right in front of Gao Yuan, he could only vaguely make out its silhouette.

A visual deception system, huh? Xinghe’s mecha had integrated too many functions, advanced beyond what Gao Yuan could imagine.

Just then, Ram burst out of the passageway and said to Gao Yuan, "Come here, both you and Xinghe, come quickly, faster!"

After speaking hastily and catching his breath, Ram then said to Xiang Weiguo, "The Serpent People probably won’t attack for a while; we have a chance to redeploy."

Xiang Weiguo and Gao Yuan were both moved, then Xiang Weiguo, surprised, asked, "The Serpent People have stopped their attack? What happened, how can we be sure?"

"Poseidon has reconnected with the Serpent People. Gao Yuan, Xinghe, hurry up and go inside. Fast! Elder Xiang, how should we coordinate mecha combat?"

In just a few words, a large amount of information was revealed. The Serpent People’s attack was paused because Poseidon had established contact with them.

"Where’s Poseidon?"

While Gao Yuan was in the med bay, too many things had happened, so now he didn’t know where Yang Yi was or what he had been up to.

Ram pointed backward and said, "Murphy will take you there!"

Murphy’s bald head was very noticeable. He had just appeared at the mouth of the passageway, and then he yelled at Gao Yuan, "Follow me, quick, follow me."

Without any hesitation, Gao Yuan and Xinghe quickly ran into the underground shelter.

Murphy led the way, with Gao Yuan and Xinghe following closely behind. The corridors of the underground shelter were now filled with people; the soldiers who had hurriedly retreated were full of fear and confusion, sitting or standing, crowding a spacious underground corridor.

Seeing the three people running over, the crowd in the corridor conscientiously made way, while Murphy shouted ahead, "Move, move, don’t block the way."

Many had seen Xinghe before, but deeper in the underground shelter, many had not, so when they saw Xinghe’s mecha, surprise and fervor rapidly replaced the confusion and fear on their faces.

"This is a Celestial! You may worship, but don’t block the way, move aside!"

Murphy shouted for people to clear the path, running at the front, heading towards the interior of the underground shelter.

After about a few hundred meters, Murphy suddenly pushed open a door and said to Gao Yuan, "Come in, this is the place."

The members of the Elder Council, who had just been captured on the nuclear submarine, were now behind this door, and Yang Yi was sitting opposite them.

This was a conference room. Although it was simply furnished with just a long table, it was definitely a conference room. Between Poseidon and those members of the Elder Council on the table was something resembling a sphere.

It seemed the atmosphere was quite harmonious; former mortal enemies now appeared to be enjoying a kind conversation, at least Yang Yi was smiling happily, very sincerely.

For some reason, Gao Yuan felt a bit awkward inside. Even though he knew he should focus on the bigger picture, looking at these people who until recently were enemies, he just couldn’t manage to smile at all.
