Chapter 191: Great Tsunami (Two-in-One, Please Subscribe)
"This thing, why does it look a bit like the divine beast Xuanwu from Eastern mythology?"
In the military base, an officer who liked Eastern culture and had even read related novels felt the phantom of the Xuanwu in the sky looked more and more familiar the longer he watched.
If the internet hadn't been blocked, he would have wanted to take a picture and then ask the novelist he loved.
By the way, the author he liked who specialized in writing Eastern Immortal cultivation novels was not an Easterner, but a young man born and raised in Flower Flag Country.
Compared to translated works, Immortal cultivation literature with a local flavor better suited their reading habits and tastes.
Awoo!
Just as he was thinking this, a sound like the call of an ancient giant beast suddenly came from the ocean.
The sound was distant and desolate.
Just hearing it for an instant gave everyone in the military base goosebumps all over their bodies.
And a blurry image of a young Black Tortoise appeared in their minds.
It also startled the scientists conducting experiments in the underground area, who anxiously asked what was going on and what had happened.
While the cry caused panic, it also exposed its location.
Flower Flag Country, having analyzed the sea area where the sound originated, was the first to lose patience and immediately issued an order.
"Quick! Head to the target sea area!"
"Full speed ahead!"
The fleet searching for Da Hei immediately took action, turning to head toward the sea area near Hope Island.
In the deepest part of that sea area, inside a submarine volcanic crater.
After the successful breakthrough, the young Black Tortoise's true form had become exactly the size of the entire crater, and its whole body was wedged on the crater, absorbing geothermal heat.
At the same time, after its mouth moved a few times, it ultimately did not swallow the half-piece of Fire Source Crystal, the size of a child's fist, that it was holding in its mouth.
This was a heavenly treasure the young Black Tortoise had found inside the volcanic crater.
Mixed in the lava, it was unknown how many hundreds of millions of years of changes it had gone through to form those few pieces.
After the young Black Tortoise discovered it, it couldn't resist, opened its big mouth and took a bite, eating most of it along with the lava and magma.
Only then was it able to suddenly break through to the youth stage.
Becoming a Spirit Beast comparable to a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Great Demon!
Its body size also changed accordingly, with a maximum diameter exceeding five hundred meters!
Once it breaks through to the adult stage and becomes a Spirit Beast equivalent to a Golden Core Demon Beast, the adult Black Tortoise's body size can continue to grow to reach the thousand-meter giant beast level.
"Woo woo woo?"
The young Black Tortoise was resting and digesting its food, not wanting to move a single bit.
Yet it suddenly discovered that many moving metal creations had appeared on the seabed.
It was the deep-sea diving Drones released by the fleet from Flower Flag Country that had arrived first as Scouts.
These Deep Sea Drones were all the latest crystallization of technology, capable of ensuring smooth communication even after diving into the deep sea.
Many also carried Deep Sea Bombs, Sonic Weapons, etc., to deal with that Da Hei Yu.
"Deep Sea No. 7 has arrived at the target depth, the detector has been turned on to full power!"
"Wait, I remember that the position on the sea chart before was supposed to be a volcanic crater, right?"
"Why does it look like something is blocking it on the detection image?"
"No. 6, No. 5, turn on the deep-sea lights!"
Bang! Bang!
As the large lights were turned on, the light shone on the original location of the volcanic crater.
"Holy Lord above!"
"What is that thing!"
"My God, why is there such a huge turtle in the North Sea!"
"Wait, I heard that a Mirage of a North Sea giant beast appeared in the sky before, could it... be this very appearance?"
The pilots of the Deep Sea Drones exclaimed.
Standing behind the pilots, the officers who were wearing helmets for safety also clicked their tongues in wonder.
And while directing the Deep Sea Drones to move slightly closer to the young Black Tortoise, after observing for a while.
A bold general, after receiving tacit approval from above, issued an order.
When a Deep Sea Drone actively approached the head area of the Black Tortoise.
It slowly extended its robotic arm, wanting to extract any possible tissue fluid from this monster that seemed to be sleeping.
Slap!
The robotic arm had just approached about one decimeter outside the young Black Tortoise's body when it was blocked by an invisible shield.
No matter how much power was used, it could not make the robotic arm go any deeper.
"Why do these monsters have so many mysterious abilities?"
The general sitting in command cursed under his breath after seeing this scene.
It seemed he discovered that the giant beast lying on the volcanic crater didn't seem to react?
His courage grew.
Very quickly, not only did more Deep Sea Drones approach the young Black Tortoise.
There was even a modified, bionic Drone in the shape of a devil shark equipped with a drill that rushed over, its belly splitting open to extend an alloy drill bit.
"Woo?"
The young Black Tortoise could not feel any malice from these little metal things toward itself.
It was just... the increasingly bold actions of these little things made it somewhat unhappy.
And as the drill of that devil shark-shaped Drone approached its head position.
Although it did not feel any danger.
The water waves and sound produced by the drill, however, angered the young Black Tortoise.
It opened its eyes and directly moved its limbs.
Immediately, huge ripples were generated around it, pushing all the approaching Deep Sea Drones until they lost control and drifted away into the depths of the Dahai.
"This giant beast must be afraid!"
"It's afraid of the drill on that Drone from just now, right?"
An officer's eyes lit up, and he whispered his guess.
Although some officers felt that such a guess was too rash.
It could not stop the general from being more inclined to believe this point.
Coupled with the fact that the turtle-shaped giant beast lay back down on the volcanic crater after stirring up massive waves that blew away the Drones.
This stirred the hearts of some adventurous military personnel, and their courage grew bolder and bolder.
Anyway, if this matter succeeded, they would naturally have performed a great service.
If it didn't... they were far away on the shore, and they didn't think anything would happen to them after provoking that giant beast.
That general also issued a new probing order after instructing the ship's helicopters to be ready to launch at any time.
An Unmanned Submarine was lowered and dived rapidly.
After reaching the position, this Unmanned Submarine fired an Armor Piercing Shell at the young Black Tortoise.
At the same time, it followed up by firing a series of Anesthetic Needles.
Attempting to first break through the giant beast's invisible membrane, then use anesthetic to sedate this giant beast for capture and research.
Although their knowledge of mysterious creatures was extremely poor.
But if they didn't try to see if it could work, how could these people be reconciled?
As extraordinary events became more and more frequent.
Flower Flag Country was even more panicked and anxious than Ouluoba.
After all, Ouluoba at least still had the Holy Church.
What kind of extraordinary things could their Flower Flag Country region have? The Feathered Serpent God?
Or those beast gods that were more Evil than the villains in unedited fairy tales?
If those guys woke up or returned, the high-level officials of Flower Flag Country highly doubted how they would view them, the invaders.
So they very much hoped to be able to decipher the mysterious secrets by relying on the power of technology.
And then, like in hero movies, enable themselves to have the ability to mass-produce their own superheroes.
It's just... although the dream was good.
Reality would not have miraculous objects fall from the sky for them to study.
The young Black Tortoise was even completely enraged by the operation of this Unmanned Submarine.
Because the young Black Tortoise was mostly wrapped in a thick turtle shell.
Only the head position looked the softest and weakest.
Several Anesthetic Needles were aimed at its chin.
This made the young Black Tortoise alert; these lost metal gadgets were perhaps eyeing the Fire Source Crystal in its mouth!
How could this be allowed!
This was a heavenly treasure that even it hadn't dared to continue eating!
The young Black Tortoise, which had been holding back a belly full of sullen anger, erupted.
Amidst a wailing sound.
Its body size instantly expanded to a diameter of over three hundred meters.
Then, it opened its mouth slightly and spat out a water ball.
This water ball was nearly two meters in diameter.
And its speed was incredibly fast!
The remote operators of the Unmanned Submarine had just seen the water ball appear.
Before they could perform any operations.
The Unmanned Submarine had already been hit and, in an instant, fell apart, turning into tens of thousands of fragments that drifted with the currents in the seabed toward the distance.
The alarm bells on the ships on the sea surface rang out in a chorus.
It was because their detectors had discovered that the seabed giant beast, which had suddenly expanded by a large margin, was rapidly surfacing!
It was obvious that their previous actions had angered it!
It had started to come for revenge!
"Enter level one combat status immediately!"
"Use the Deep Sea Bombs and the Sonic Weapon!"
"Stop that monster; we cannot let it look down on our human navy!"
The general boarded the helicopter while boosting the fleet's morale through communication equipment.
The moment after the helicopter he was riding in began to ascend.
Several Anti-Submarine Aircraft whistled past the sea surface and dropped heavy Deep Sea Bombs.
At the same time, various modified Sonic Weapons were also released toward the seabed.
The young Black Tortoise directly ignored these Sonic Weapons by relying on its shield.
However, the schools of fish were affected and began to show obvious panic.
Some even turned belly-up and began to float to the surface.
Boom, boom, boom!
The next second, the Deep Sea Bombs exploded.
These bombs also had their payloads specially increased, and even used a new formula of explosives.
It was also thanks to the scene Da Hei had caused back then.
It made the higher-ups in Flower Flag Country rarely refrain from bickering and shifting blame with the generals this time, readily approving the request and providing the funds.
And so, everyone formed a rare synergy under the goal of dealing with the extraordinary together.
Woo-woo-woo!
Various specially made bombs and shells exploded all around and even on the protective shield of the young Black Tortoise.
Yet, a miraculous scene suddenly appeared.
Before the massive impact of the explosives could be released, just as they detonated, they were unimaginably and forcibly solidified at the moment of explosion by the Divine Sense of the young Black Tortoise, and then wrapped up by individual water bubbles.
Immediately after, these water bubbles were sucked into the mouth of the young Black Tortoise, which then paused for a moment.
Pfft!
The next second, as the young Black Tortoise neared the sea surface, it opened its mouth and spat out those dozens of small water bubbles that looked no larger than a meter.
The officers and soldiers on the decks of the Flower Flag Country fleet saw the water bubbles scattering down in mid-air like flowers falling from the sky...
And noticed that the halos wrapped around these water bubbles seemed particularly... dazzling and blinding?
Boom, boom, boom!
The shells that had been fired and the bombs that had been thrown were all returned in this one instant.
Causing blossoms of fire to erupt on the bodies of at least five warships.
While illuminating the sky in brilliant, vibrant colors.
It also made the Anti-Submarine Aircraft that had just finished their deployment mission cry out in alarm and frantically climb in altitude.
However, the young Black Tortoise was very vengeful.
Accompanied by a small portion of its body emerging from the sea.
After it looked at those tiny flying objects.
Its seemingly clumsy limbs and small tail swiped at the same time!
With a boom!
The behemoth before everyone's eyes actually leaped directly out of the sea for several thousand meters.
Carrying an afterimage, it arrived first despite starting later and crashed directly into those expensive Anti-Submarine Aircraft.
Then, after performing an aerial emergency stop in mid-air, its head and limbs all retracted into its turtle shell.
Immediately, the turtle shell spun at high speed and fell directly from the sky.
"Open fire, quickly!"
After the officers and soldiers on a Destroyer, who realized they had been chosen as the target, let out pale and powerless screams.
Accompanied by the hoarse roar of the automatic Close-in Weapon System!
The massive body of the young Black Tortoise smashed into the Destroyer closest to it.
On the spot! This Destroyer could not bear the weight and snapped into two halves!
And as the young Black Tortoise submerged into the Dahai, it was dragged into the vortex that followed.
Having destroyed a warship in one strike.
The young Black Tortoise was clearly still not satisfied.
It was just that the price of showing off earlier made the young Black Tortoise change its tactics and not leave the Dahai again.
After losing the protection of the ocean, it had just been hit by thousands of rounds from the Close-in Weapon System at close range.
Although it was not injured thanks to its innate shield, the consumption of the shield was enormous.
The young Black Tortoise quickly learned the lesson from this battle and chose to play to its strengths and avoid its weaknesses.
After discovering that these metal creations of its opponents, which were a size smaller than it, were not flexible at all and that their main bodies were very fragile.
The young Black Tortoise directly stirred up monstrous waves and a large vortex on the surface of the sea.
And relying on its advantage of moving quickly underwater, after just a few dozen breaths.
After the Flower Flag Country's warships helplessly released various bombs and even missiles.
They were still unable to stop the offensive of the young Black Tortoise, sinking into the seabed one after another and becoming iron coffins under the water.
The Ouluoba fleet stopped approaching the moment the young Black Tortoise flew up, and after seeing the first Destroyer meet its misfortune.
They chose to retreat silently.
At this moment, seeing the last allied warship also sink to join the others.
They saw the giant beast's head emerge from the sea and saw the other party seemingly sweep its gaze across their direction.
Making their hair stand on end one after another!
Afterwards, the officers unanimously scolded their subordinates not to open fire, fearing that they would provoke this murderous star and cause their entire army to be wiped out as well.
Fortunately, the flaming flying objects appearing in the sky attracted the attention of the young Black Tortoise.
Those were Surface-to-Surface Missiles from the nearest Hope Island military base.
Although they were not nuclear weapons, they were all loaded with high-yield new explosives.
A few of them even used Earth Penetrating Warheads, capable of destroying rocky mountains over ten meters thick.
They had been given high hopes by the Flower Flag Country generals.
However, although the destructive power of the missiles was not bad, it was still too slow for an extraordinary being.
Especially their high-altitude flight process, which meant they would be detected before they even descended.
Thereby giving the transcendent more time to think of countermeasures.
The young Black Tortoise knew the moment it saw these missiles that they were aimed at it.
And then?
Only a fool would choose to stay in place and take the hit head-on.
The young Black Tortoise dived directly into the undersea volcanic crater, even changing its size to hide within the magma of the crater.
As the missiles plunged into the sea and exploded, the resulting spray shot into the sky, forming a spectacular waterfall.
Yet the young Black Tortoise discovered it had been overly cautious.
With these kinds of attacks where the energy was not concentrated and was squandered and wasted.
As long as it didn't get close to the center... to it, it didn't hurt or itch at all.
But since the other party continued to attack, it would be quite reasonable for it to continue to retaliate, right?
The young Black Tortoise moved its Divine Sense, and its eyes vaguely followed the seawater to see the location of the military base that had launched the missiles.
Then, it exerted its innate ability with full force.
The young Black Tortoise suddenly paused, and the Dharma Power it had just condensed came to a halt.
It was Su Ping who appeared before it with a strange expression, looking around at the wreckage of the warships on the seabed.
Woo woo woo!
The young Black Tortoise hurriedly offered an explanation.
This was not it bullying the weak or intentionally picking on these mortals!
The Dahai can testify, it was these mortals who struck first!
Just now, it had encountered an attack of explosives fired from a distance by a group of mortals.
It only escaped unscathed by hiding in the volcanic crater!
After finishing, the young Black Tortoise had already shrunk to the size of a fist and prepared to hide in Su Ping's sleeve.
Su Ping, however, lightly brushed his sleeve to avoid the young Black Tortoise.
And he extended his index finger to lightly tap the center of its brow.
"Since they provoked you first, then naturally you should settle the score and pay them back in kind!"
"Let's finish what you hadn't completed just now!"
Su Ping swept his Divine Sense across the surrounding sea area and more or less understood the situation.
Although he knew that the young Black Tortoise's claim of escaping unscathed was an exaggeration.
But since these guys dared to launch a sneak attack, they had to pay the price!
Otherwise, if he continued to keep others in the future, wouldn't they also be at risk of being caught and bombed!
This trend must absolutely not be allowed to grow!
Therefore, Su Ping not only agreed to the young Black Tortoise's subsequent spellcasting, but also decided to help it out by providing extra Dharma Power support.
Thus, after the missiles exploded, the sea surface returned to tranquility.
Everyone thought that the giant beast was tired or had been scared away by the missiles...
As for the giant beast being injured or anything, upon seeing that it had chosen to dive back to the seabed, even the most confident experts dared not believe that those missiles could have had much effect.
The environment of the Dahai is still too disadvantageous for humanity's current weapons and equipment.
This will have to wait until subsequent large-scale professional technical equipment is researched and upgraded; perhaps then things will change!
"Wait!"
"The sea surface... there is an anomaly on the sea surface!"
"Hm? Is that giant beast emerging again? The missiles didn't scare it off?"
The generals in the base were slightly stunned, and then, after they saw the surveillance footage clearly.
They all revealed expressions of disbelief.
And that fleet general who had just returned to the Hope Island airport by helicopter.
Just as he stepped off the helicopter, he heard the exclamations of his peers through his headset.
Sensing that something was wrong, he immediately boarded again and ordered the pilot to take off at once.
Not long after the helicopter ascended.
This general and the pilots gaped as they looked at the horizon between the sky and the sea.
A white line appeared.
This white line was getting higher and closer.
It was clearly... a super tsunami in the making, aimed directly at the Hope Island military base!
