Chapter 450: YY Nation

Eastern part of the African continent.

On this side of the rainforest at noon, there were many brightly feathered birds and countless insects and animals.

However…

"Boom—! Boom—!"

Waves of engine roaring swept low over the rainforest, startling the birds, causing them to flap their wings and scatter in panic.

One of them possibly had a head or brain injury; for some reason, it actually thought of flying upward out of the lush rainforest, and then…

With a "Bang—!" its feathers exploded; it didn't know where it had been hit, but it was certain there was no chance of survival.

Just seen, that not-so-bright bird had just burst out of the thick forest when it collided with a large transport craft a hundred meters long, streamlined overall and slightly plump.

Naturally, it was blown apart on impact and vanished without a trace.

Looking around, the large transport craft was flanked by two pirate fighters and five assault craft with their side hatches removed, operating within the atmosphere.

It was obvious that this dark-gray-painted flight formation, belonging to the Man-eating Sharks, was preparing to go to Wakanda to collect vibranium ore.

But "strangely," this flight formation had no sign of the Astate-exclusive Thunder Transport Plane; it seemed the Man-eating Sharks did not take Wakanda's defenses seriously, thinking that a single auxiliary military combat squad would suffice for smooth "negotiations."

In Year 05 Earth, the vast majority of people and their governments considered Wakanda an extremely backward country, but that was not actually the case.

Even though Wakanda was isolated from the world, with the elite and the world connected, Ye Lian Na still learned through scattered online clues, pictures, and videos that Wakanda was a technological presence ranking among the top of Year 07 Earth.

Even so, the Man-eating Sharks still thought sending an auxiliary military combat squad to "negotiate" was more than enough.

Shortly after takeoff, the flight formation arrived at the rear of a mountain peak, immediately adopting a hovering formation; at the same time, the pirate fighters and assault craft pointed their gun barrels at the mountain peak that appeared to be empty.

And inside the cabin of one of those assault craft…

"Duowei, you tried to contact Wen Junhao, but he kept avoiding and staying silent."

A male auxiliary soldier with his legs stretched out of the cabin, sitting on the right edge, turned his head to the opened helmet; he appeared to be about eighty years old, with neat short hair, and the Duowei auxiliary soldier was reporting.

Furthermore, all the auxiliary soldiers seated in that assault craft's cabin had the words "Noble Battalion" engraved on the right pauldron of their Herlutin II.

Capturing Captain America, seizing the Vibranium Shield, and sending the Hulk flying—these were the deeds of the Noble Battalion's Team A.

Due to their performance in the Battle of New York being fairly decent, the Duowei commander of the Noble Battalion became the commander tasked with "visiting" Wen Junhao.

Upon hearing the report, Duowei opened his mouth after a moment's thought: "Since the other side is acting that way, we will weakly force entry; if we encounter enemy artillery interception, inform all units to approve the use of lethal means for counterattack."

"Understood, Duowei." The male auxiliary soldier who received the clear order relayed Duowei's command to the entire flight formation.

Leaving the cabin.

Looking down from the air.

Without Duowei's command, the flight formation detoured and rushed toward the mountain peak; it looked like the two pirate fighters at the rear of the formation were about to collide with the peak…

Whoosh—!! But the anticipated scene of aircraft destruction and death did not occur; on the contrary, the mountain peak was simply "torn" apart by the two pirate fighters.

It turned out this mountain peak was merely a border outpost of Wakanda, a disguise generated by a holographic stance, intended to prevent obvious locals and intruders from smoothly entering and exiting Wakanda.

Just past it, Wen Junhao was proud that "our" camouflage had no flaws, but when placed before the main universe that had been playing with optical camouflage for two hundred years, it was like a luxurious crayon drawing stuck underneath whatever one wanted to hide.

Everything was exposed, leaving nothing hidden.

Before the mountain peak's disguise was torn apart, the flight formation smoothly retreated into Wakanda's territory, and the magnificent African rainforest and savanna scenery likewise entered everyone's view.

Of course, everyone likewise saw the Wakanda urban area lacking noticeable modern buildings and roads.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Suddenly!

A small amount of energy artillery detachments, deployed from underground anti-air facilities, fired slowly and sparsely at the flight formation.

"Hum—! Hum—!"

The result was that those low-intensity, low-power energy artillery units of Year 07 Earth were easily neutralized by the main universe's energy shield, to the point that they could not even affect the flight formation's trajectory.

Seeing this, the pilot of one of the pirate fighters, unable to hold back, complained over the comms: "Is that so-called low tech? Ridiculous—if you saw it with your own eyes, you'd think that out there was a nation conjured up by Year 07 humans' imagination, huh."

After venting, the pilot who had already locked onto his target, following Duowei's order, launched a counterattack.

"Ting—ting—!" The low-rate machine gun instantly spewed blue-light fire serpents.

"Boom! Boom!"

In the blink of an eye, Wakanda's eastern perimeter anti-air facilities were devastated by the rapid salvo of the two pirate fighters.

The flight formation reduced speed, the elite skimmed over a stretch of highland lake, then continued leaping across the vast grasslands toward what appeared to be a modernized urban area.

During this, those who differed in attire, behavior, and appearance from the uncivilized tribal inhabitants—people wielding spears capable of firing tiny artillery units—attempted to achieve the goal of even handling small-caliber anti-air facilities…

"We" actually thought of using "spears" for anti-air, trying to "shoot" at aircraft capable of breaking through the lower atmosphere?!? admirable courage.

Unfortunately, the auxiliary soldiers seated on either side of the assault craft's cabin, especially those belonging to the Man-eating Sharks, would inevitably go soft-hearted toward those uncivilized enemies, and they all used laser rifles and our superb marksmanship—either single shots or sweeping fire—on Wakanda's soldiers.

As they were about to reach Wen Junhao's urban area, the flight formation seemed to have detected something special, immediately slowed down, hovered again, and proactively activated their energy shields.

Next, one of the pirate fighters flew at a high angle, quickly reaching low altitude at a kilometer, then adjusted its angle and dove upward.

At the same time, it launched a missile toward the top of Wakanda's urban area, then, with a slow turn, retreated from the position where the formation was located.

The missile, however, continued its sprint and detonated its warhead at a low altitude of roughly eight hundred meters right at the center of Wakanda's urban area.

Whoosh—!

The dazzling blue light flashed into view, and even atop Wakanda's urban area it generated a large blue-light "sun."

"Boom—!!!" Then came a violent, earth‑shattering explosion sound and a shockwave nearing the speed of sound.

In just an instant, Wakanda's urban area suffered a plasma‑bomb bombardment equivalent to about one million tons of TNT.

The grasslands and woodlands surrounding the city were utterly obliterated by the shockwave mixed with blue flames; lake water boiled and evaporated, while much of the land, due to extreme cold in an instant, turned into crystalline forms.

In contrast, the flight formation that had proactively activated its energy shield and was a full eight li outside the blast center remained unharmed, holding its hover. Meanwhile, the urban area that endured the plasma nuclear explosion actually managed to survive before that plasma cataclysm.

Although the plasma bomb carried by the pirate fighters amounted to "only" around a million tons, placed in the Man-eating Sharks' fleet as a "special" munition, logically a city ought to be unable to withstand temperatures of hundreds of millions of degrees.

Actually, the flight formation slowed and hovered, and even dispatched a pirate fighter to drop a plasma bomb, because we had detected a tangible, visible energy shield enveloping the district that is Wakanda's "heart."

In order to shatter the shield in one strike, and also to avoid leaving a "big heart," to completely erase Wakanda from the map, the flight formation chose to deploy a "most special" plasma bomb as a "test run."

The obtained result was still wrong, but it shattered the defensive shield, and still retained a relatively shattered Wakanda.

Thus the flight formation retreated again, selected a location on the eastern square, and landed in reverse.

「Thud! Thud! 」

After the assault craft finished landing, the eighty auxiliary troops, including the noble battalion, couldn't help but jump out of the cabin, first touch the ground with our feet, and then built a simple circular defensive perimeter around the square.

Then…

「Tap! Tap-tap! 」

Bright red, wrist-thick low-energy beams surged in the far distance of the square.

Whenever these tribally dressed Wakanda soldiers wielding spears appeared in sight, the auxiliary troops would mercilessly pull the trigger and shoot them down.

Although the auxiliary troops would massacre civilians, but if civilians picked up spears, the auxiliary troops would treat them equally, raise guns, aim, shoot, with no room for negotiation.

Since the civilians chose death themselves, we give them death.

Moreover, after some time we tried to contact the lower levels of Wakanda, hoping to obtain vibranium mining rights in a relatively peaceful way, but if the other side first agreed to negotiate, then it's strange that the auxiliary forces would have to resort to hard-handed measures.

If it were the white magistrate, or even my battalion of the extreme warriors, we might be able to negotiate nicely with Wakanda, but…

Wen Junhao encountered a man-eating shark.

That's also why Sui Bian would let the man-eating shark that follows common sense assist the Helusi I value and cherish, because to deal with the relatively ordinary 07 universe, we need to dispatch sharks that are 'say what they mean' and 'have a mild temperament'.

A moment later.

The auxiliary troops followed by the noble battalion had already taken control of the situation; civilians had long since fled without a trace, while soldiers were few and many died.

At that time, the tail and side hatches of the small transport craft opened, allowing seven octopus-shaped robots using levitation technology to leave the cabin.

Furthermore, as soon as those seven robots left the cabin, they activated their scanning function, quickly disappearing beneath the square to screen and search for the entrance of the vibranium vein.

Everyone who exited through the side hatch had undergone prosthetic limb and body surgery to the same extent.

Although their appearance is no different from ordinary people, their eyes emit a faint light; seemingly to increase work efficiency, allowing 'multi-tasking', they even installed mechanical tentacles and arms on their backs, and the skin of their feet and legs was also fitted with metal instruments.

And those people are precisely the ship-attached engineering team of the Man-Eating Shark regiment, as well as the engineers of that team.

Although their titles don't contain the word 'engineering', seeing that we wield clearly marked, flamboyant firearms shows we also have considerable combat ability; otherwise we might be wandering aimlessly with the Man-Eating Sharks across the galaxy.

The gunfire became sporadic, even as it subsided, an engineering team leader with a few mechanical tentacles walked up to Deputy Commander, speaking in a slightly hoarse voice without any echo:

"Deputy Commander Carter, your engineering department has already infiltrated Wakanda's internal network, and the robots have locked onto the location of the vibranium vein."

"However, according to the data you obtained from infiltrating the internal network, the vibranium vein is not a native product of 07 Earth, but an extraterrestrial."

"Extraterrestrial?" The deputy commander, after replacing the magazine of his laser rifle, was stunned, but immediately reacted, saying: "Is it a meteorite?"

"Correct." The engineering team leader continued: "It is a meteorite containing ten thousand tons of vibranium element, which fell in the Wakanda region about a million years ago."

It sounds like a lot, but for 07 Earth it's little; frankly, Deputy Commander, ten thousand tons is negligible for your main universe, truly having no effect, useless.

Besides that, you also collected a common plant called heartleaf grass, which can slightly enhance human physique and reflexes, and even possibly connect with the ancestors of Wen Junhao.

"Tsk, connecting with our ancestors? How disgusting. Also useless."

The leader, speaking with disdain, flicked his wrist, opened the holographic device installed on my left upper arm, and projected relevant data onto a holographic screen for the deputy commander and myself.

Looking at the holographic screen before him, the deputy commander fell silent for a moment, then ordered: 'Ten thousand is zero, it's pointless to dig, just take away everything their engineering department deems useless; as for whether it's useless, that's up to you to consider. Understood?'

"Of course I understand."

The leader pretended to ponder, nodding; it seems that kind of work, I and my engineering department have done a lot.

Seeing this, the deputy commander again quietly ordered: 'Charlie and Romeo battalions escort the engineering team to carry out the recovery mission; Delta battalion stays at the landing zone, coordinating with two pirate fighter jets to guard in retreat; Sierra battalion and the noble battalion are responsible for sweeping; it's said Wakanda has little white panther protection, so let you go hunt the panthers!'

"Ha!"

Upon receiving the order, the auxiliary troops' combat squad immediately ceased operations.

Before long, everything in Wakanda that has utility and research value will be emptied out by a member of that Man-Eating Shark regiment.

As for the so-called 'superhero' White Panther, if they choose to surrender, that's fine; otherwise, the auxiliary troops might find it troublesome and simply behead them.

At this very moment, the entire 07 Earth faces being purged by the Man-Eating Shark regiment; the regiment commander Taibelos, according to information provided by his father, 'plundered' another two limited gems.

And far away in Eastern Europe of the Northern Hemisphere.

Within the borders of a large country named Sokovia lies a base of the Four-Headed Snake…

It should be said that there once stood a Four-Headed Snake base, because the stronghold established by the Four-Headed Snake in Sokovia had already been taken by Helusi alone.

However, what surprised the descendant of the OriginalBody of the Master of Humanity was that the Four-Headed Snake base actually lacked any male experimental material with extremely low Spiritual Energy potential.

Everyone, the author went to take the subject four exam on August 9, then originally had a slight cold, plus the rain and the exam hall's central air conditioning being very strong…

Successfully came down with a fever, over 39 degrees…

On the 9th I didn't have the manuscript, then wanted to ask for leave, but thinking my update speed is really rushed, I didn't ask.

I'm afraid the plot written in a daze these past few days might be a bit slow; I hope everyone doesn't rush, previously I revealed the 'Kryptonians', and also Luojia's most relaxed universe, which I will write out together later.

Today still 37.3 degrees, looks like I must take anti-inflammatory medicine…

Actually on the 9th, 10th, and 11th I've been relying on Bai Lan Gen and 999 to get by, not wanting to take medicine, but not taking it is impossible.

Finally, thanks everyone for your support, thanks for recommendation tickets, monthly tickets, rewards, and subscriptions~!
