CHAPTER 749: 542

Lune, although willing to believe Hu Hu’s words, found that Feodor was not aware of the situation.

This general was still skeptical about Lune’s commands.

Seeing his slightly entangled and hesitant appearance, he understood immediately.

"Lune! You don’t know them either, do you!? A bunch of strangers whose origins we don’t know, and you just decide to trust them and have our soldiers stop resisting!? Do you realize how serious the consequences will be if a monster escapes!?"

Lune, shouted at by him in a loud voice, immediately felt a headache descend upon him.

Although his rank was higher than the other’s, he did not have the authority to issue commands directly to him.

To make him comply, an order had to come from the military headquarters.

"Feodor! You fool! Look at what’s happening outside! This war is no longer what you understand!"

"Abandon your outdated theories! We need to make changes now!"

"Hua Xia Country has already confirmed the strength of these people. Look how long your soldiers can hold on! If you don’t want all of them to die here, listen to me this time!"

Lune, shedding his usual noble demeanor, became unusually angry.

His words were harsh, but the effect was quite good.

After hearing this, Feodor was silent for a long time, his expression constantly changing before he finally sighed and said softly:

"Fine, we’ll do as you say, stop the bombardments immediately, and shift our focus to defense. I want to see whether those people you’re pinning your hopes on can actually resolve the crisis there."

After finishing, he hung his head in thought before adding somewhat reluctantly:

"Lune, there’s something I hope you understand. I’ve already contacted headquarters, and the situation here has reached a critical point. Considering the style of those people, I have no doubt that there are at least five nuclear bombs, each over 20,000 tons, aimed at us already. If the situation gets out of control, you should understand what that means..."

Lune, too, had anticipated the situation described by Feodor.

Compared to this general, he knew much more about those people.

However, knowing was one thing, but facing the issue head-on was another matter.

Lune was somewhat absent-minded.

Although they could leave the area before the nuclear bombs arrived, the idea of detonating such powerful bombs on the territory of their own country was unimaginable.

Even in this sparsely populated area, it was a shocking thought.

But the scale of the monster invasion was exceptionally large this time.

This was the first time they had encountered such a level of invasion on their national territory.

It was also the first time they encountered such a thing as a dimension rift.

This unbreakable threat had put tremendous pressure on the people, making it very likely for them to take drastic measures.

Fortunately, the situation hadn’t reached that extent yet.

Lune looked up in the direction of the dimension rift, and for some reason, he remembered the scene he had witnessed on the mysterious island when encountering the Insect Race.

That god-like figure had left an indelible mark on his mind.

"Could it be him this time...?"

Muttering to himself, Lune’s eyes began to sparkle with an expectation.

At this moment, at the hatch of the Dawn, Zhang Xiaoman and Lin Sisi were ready.

During the time when Canglan Department issued the notice, Zhang Xiaoman was waiting for the gunfire from the other side to cease.

Although he had the protection of the Magic Shield and the Eternal Veil, it was better to avoid being targeted if possible.

After waiting for about five minutes, just when Xiaoman was getting impatient, the attacks from the other side finally ceased.

All firepower shifted from suppressing the dimension rift to defending against the monsters that burst out.

"They’ve stopped, Sisi, let’s go."

Xiaoman said to the girl before waving his hand, and suddenly a seemingly inconspicuous black Flying Sword floated in front of him.

What he used was the Sword Control Technique, and this Flying Sword was the Purple Cloud Divine Sword.

Although both of them had the ability to fly with Dark Energy Shock, flying that way was too slow, far slower than the Sword Control Technique.

"Hold on to me."

Xiaoman stepped onto the Flying Sword, Lin Sisi followed and climbed on, grasping his clothing tightly with both hands.

For the Sword Control Technique, even though the Purple Cloud Divine Sword was not large, standing on it still felt as easy and stable as walking on flat ground.

This stability was thanks to a structural formula within the Dark Energy Formula, also one of the tricky problems that had to be solved during the development of the Sword Control Technique.

After ensuring the girl was stable, a transparent flow of water suddenly appeared behind Xiaoman, spreading and enveloping the two in a spherical form.

This was the Ten Thousand Spirit Dew Cloak he always wore, normally invisible until needed for flight.

This cloak provided him with 100 points of armor, 20 points of spiritual power, and 10 points of constitution, a Purple Level item indeed.

With it, the two were almost unaffected by wind during their sword ride, an unexpected benefit.
