Chapter 753: Uninhabited Island (1/4, please subscribe)

A few minutes ago, Fang Yue was still at Qingshui Branch, chatting with Qiu Dugu, preparing to leave Jianghai City together in two days to meet up with President Qian at Haiyu City.

Then suddenly an emergency notice came in, and everyone rushed to headquarters at top speed.

Still completely clueless, he was brought by Qiu Dugu together with Director Jiang to headquarters.

He didn't even have time to take a careful look at what the Alliance headquarters looked like before being led to this plaza and squeezed in with the rest of the noisy crowd.

Listening to the person above speak, Fang Yue realized that the bespectacled middle-aged man up there, with a stern expression, was the Alliance's President Jiang Wanchun.

【Duan Shang Shui】… Immortal-Slaying… Cheater…

After quite a while, Fang Yue finally digested this information and figured out what it meant.

"The Cheaters actually rebelled…"

Qiu Dugu's expression was grim. Standing here now were mostly the Alliance's high-end combatants, so their status naturally wouldn't be low.

They had a certain understanding of the Cheaters.

"Immortal… Immortal-Slaying…"

Director Jiang's withered, tangled hair fluttered in the wind, his expression gradually turning cold.

Within the Alliance, there had actually always been two voices regarding the attitude toward the Cheaters.

One was the Pro-Cheater faction. The Cheaters led by Mei Yu had made many efforts for humanity's survival and the world's existence, winning the goodwill of a great many people.

The other was the Hostile faction. They believed that the already-mutated Cheaters no longer counted as human.

That transcendent power, if not bound by rules, would have long since changed the world!

The rebellion of Su Bairong now was the best proof.

The emergency-assembled team was divided into three squads.

Surprisingly, Director Jiang's status within the Alliance was not low—he actually became the captain of one of the three squads.

Once the squads were set, Jiang Wanchun clapped his hands twice with a sharp pat-pat.

"You have ten minutes to prepare. In that room over there, each of you may go in and choose one 【Oddity】 as a reward for this mission. Once you're ready, the Alliance will arrange a plane to take you directly to the island of the Cheater Base."

"Time is tight. Every second we waste here will only make the enemy stronger!"

Once the orders were given, President Jiang Wanchun handed the matter over to the Alliance's Vice President for handling, and returned himself to the meeting room where the briefing had been held.

At his seat, nearly a hundred projections played simultaneously, each person chattering nonstop, reporting all sorts of data, intelligence, analysis, and other information to the President.

For an ordinary person, processing so much information at once would be impossible.

But Jiang Wanchun lightly touched his right ear.

The normally shaped ear suddenly grew pointed and long, resembling an elf's right ear.

The next moment, the chaotic information instantly became orderly, rapidly flowing into Jiang Wanchun's mind for reception and processing.

"President, the High-Pressure Dense Beam Missiles have been launched. Per orders, they will conduct twenty-four hours of uninterrupted bombing before our people arrive…"

"President, the First Division drone swarm is charging toward the target, about to make contact…"

"President, nuclear launch authorization has been approved, personnel evacuation orders have been issued, awaiting your personal initiation of the countdown…"

"President, the Final Destruction Plan has been unlocked, awaiting approval from the other nine Presidents…"

Piece by piece, the information was quickly filtered through the President's brain, with the useful parts analyzed out.

He tapped open one of the large screens.

Along Jianghai City's coast, in the coastal area, cannon barrels poked out one after another, firing missiles with a booming roar, whooshing across the sky like shooting stars, flying toward the distant horizon.

Under the rapid calculations of artificial intelligence, they flew along their preset paths at high speed, gradually climbing higher before vanishing into the clouds.

After flying a good distance, they could finally see far below a lone, uninhabited island surrounded by sea on all sides.

The uninhabited island wasn't very large in area, mostly covered by tall vegetation, like a tourist resort.

An uninhabited island like this, under normal circumstances, should have long since been captured by satellites and marked on the map.

Yet no matter where you searched online or in various regional records, you wouldn't find any intelligence about this island.

It was like a blind spot in the world, or like that once-mysterious Devil's Triangle.

Only by seeing it with your own eyes could you truly know that there stood an uninhabited island on this stretch of sea.

"Attack!"

The President, far away in Jianghai City, issued the order.

Those high-pressure missiles immediately began to dive, losing altitude.

Accompanied by a thunderous explosion—

The first High-Pressure Dense Beam Missiles to fall detonated with a roar, bursting open like a flower into a skyful of dense small iron balls that rained down.

Rumble rumble rumble!!!

The moment the small iron balls hit the ground of the uninhabited island, they went off in a frenzy of chain explosions.

Small mushroom clouds rose one after another, like miniature nuclear bombs, shocking to behold.

As the blasts occurred, the uninhabited island was blown full of craters, revealing complex, intersecting dome-shaped structures underground.

That—was the Cheater Base!

It had originally been built jointly by the Alliance and Cheaters like Mei Yu, existing to guarantee the Cheaters' safety.

But the Alliance itself also held countermeasures.

These High-Pressure Dense Beam Missiles were one such measure!

Boom boom boom!!

All the High-Pressure Dense Beam Missiles detonated together at this moment, turning into a skyful of small iron balls that rained down like raindrops.

If Fang Yue saw this scene, he would surely be greatly shocked, because this method bore quite a resemblance to the 【Night Rain】 from the game, as if the inspiration for such a measure had been drawn from 【Night Rain】.

"What Mei Yu handed over to our Alliance is quite a lot!"

The President stared coldly at the screen.

At the same time.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

On the screen, a skyful of small iron balls rained down, and the instant they made contact with the domed building—

BOOM BOOM BOOM!!

Even through the screen, one could feel the violent chain of explosions erupting!

The entire small island shook violently; flames shot skyward, scorching every tree and plant on the island, even blasting the surface into charred blackness that crumbled into black sand!

Dust and sand flew everywhere; amid the frenzied blasts, the domed building was blown open with crack after crack.

In the ensuing chain of explosions, the dome of the domed building was blasted clean off, tearing open a massive breach.

Looking down through the breach, one could clearly see a woman, her icy eyes gazing upward.

At that moment, the remaining high-pressure iron balls all rained down toward the woman's position.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!!

Amid the fire and smoke of the blasts, the woman stood firm in place, gave a cold smile, and a faint Qi shield slowly materialized around her!
