It was a disheveled humanoid Drought Fiend, almost devoid of clothing, with a dark red, shriveled and unsightly appearance, somewhat resembling a mutated human female.
At this moment, beams of light were shooting from afar on the large screen, but they were all blocked a hundred meters away by the glow on the Drought Fiend's surface.
The terrifying large explosions seemed to merely tickle the opponent, unable to penetrate its defenses or break the light released a hundred meters away.
"Mr. Yang Yuan." Chen Xianzhi nodded towards Yang Yuan.
"Is this the True Drought Fiend? What's the situation?" Yang Yuan asked.
"It's hard to explain in a few words."
Chen Xianzhi sighed, "The Firepower Flying Discs we sent couldn't even make a dent. Its energy seems endless. We can't even slow it down. Once the Firepower Flying Discs approach within two hundred kilometers, it emits a beam to detonate them. If they're over two hundred kilometers away, it completely ignores them, and we can't even provoke it."
"Beyond two hundred kilometers it ignores them? Does that mean its long-range attack only reaches a maximum of two hundred kilometers?" Yang Yuan asked.
"Not sure, but it doesn't attack beyond that range, maybe it just can't be bothered."
Chen Xianzhi said helplessly, "Currently, we can only send a Firepower Flying Disc to its death at intervals to make it stop temporarily. But that's all. It advanced fifty kilometers just yesterday, and now it's less than two hundred kilometers from the safe zone."
No wonder there have been so many mutated females in the safe zone since this morning, even human-level Superpower Users weren't spared.
That invisible heat radiation reversing yin and yang can't simply be offset by the cold radiation from a Marvel cooler.
Or perhaps the Marvel cooler isn't of high enough grade.
"Mr. Yang Yuan, how much longer?" Chen Xianzhi asked anxiously.
Although there wasn't much hope for Yang Yuan's plan to completely kill the Drought Fiend, it was almost their only hope.
"Around four or five tomorrow morning,"
Yang Yuan said, "Try to delay as much as possible, don't let it get too close, otherwise if it bursts out with power again, that heat radiation... although we men won't be reversed, we're likely to be burned to death."
"Tomorrow morning at four or five?"
Chen Xianzhi checked the time and saw it was almost afternoon.
He then nodded solemnly, "I'll do my best to hold it off!"
Yang Yuan left the safety center, heading back to his factory when suddenly the old man he'd met once before appeared in front of him out of thin air.
"Wait, young man, can you manufacture a Radiation-Proof Safe House?" the old man asked.
"Radiation-Proof Safe House?" Yang Yuan was puzzled, "How big?"
"Ideally, one that can hold everyone in the safe zone."
The old man said, "If not, at least let all the normal people in. I feel tomorrow's big showdown will affect this area, Superpower Users will be fine, but ordinary people might not survive one in ten."
Yang Yuan thought about the power of the level ten Firepower Flying Disc's shells and the potential impact if the Drought Fiend truly unleashed its power—
His heart tightened. Curious about the old man's identity and abilities, but now wasn't the time to ask, "Have Leader Chen make a larger version of the Safe House he helped me build before, all made of radiation-proof materials, not too thick, not too heavy. It should be ready before dark."
"Alright, thank you, young man."
The old man nodded and then vanished into thin air.
Yang Yuan took a deep look at the spot where the old man disappeared, then quickly returned to his factory.
"Big brother, you're back. Sister Jiayan asked me to call you for a meal." Just then, Jiang Yiyi came out of the metal house and quickly said upon seeing him.
"You all eat first, I'll come later."
Yang Yuan replied, then headed to the Safe House door, where a Marvel cooler was placed inside the Safe House, and six little girls covered with thick quilts brought by soldiers were sleeping because it was too cold.
He glanced at the status above:
[Palm-Sized Safe House Lv.7: 603/320 (Upgradeable)]
"Upgrade!"
He directly moved with a thought to upgrade.
The small Safe House glowed with white light, showing no change on the outside, but with the upgrade, it seemed to blend with the surrounding environment. The original camouflage material and effect became even better.
Not long after, the upgrade was successful.
[Palm-Sized Safe House Lv.8: 283/640 (Palm-sized House Foundation Core, can be anchored into the ground once placed, hard to move; Non-upgradable)]
The information didn't change much, but the original effect should be stronger.
Such as physical defense, breathability, interior comfort, and ground stability anchoring.
But when this Safe House was built, it didn't include radiation-proofing. At that time, it was mainly for a good night's sleep outdoors, who would think that far ahead?
'I wonder if this safe house has any radiation-proof effect?'
Yang Yuan thought and then entered the metal house. He sat down at the metal table, picked up a bowl, and began to eat.
"How's it outside? It seems the gunfire stopped after this morning, has no one else been mutating?" Zhao Jiayan asked a bit anxiously.
She's also a woman, and she would be affected by the Drought Fiend's reversal, worrying when misfortune might hit her.
"With the Marvel cooler the mutation has slowed down, and the Marvel cooler might help mutated people stay rational."
Yang Yuan said while eating quickly, "You must carry your Marvel cooler with you, even if it's cold, endure it. Don't turn off the cooling effect; get through today and it will be fine."
"We know the seriousness of the situation."
Zhao Jiayan nodded and then asked, "How confident are you?"
He knew Yang Yuan's plan from the start.
Yang Yuan paused eating, "Honestly, I have no confidence at all because I've never encountered a Celestial-level Creature, but this battle is inevitable, and we have no retreat."
As he said this, determination filled his heart. If mere bombs can't kill it, there's one last way.
That is—
The Firepower Flying Disc has a self-destruct function!
Zhao Jiayan remained silent for a moment and then asked, "Is there anything I can do?"
"Big brother, can I help?" Jiang Yiyi also asked eagerly.
"You don't need to do anything, but tomorrow at dawn, when the battle begins, you should hide in the safe zone's Safe House."
Yang Yuan said, "Later, the safe zone will make a Radiation-Proof Safe House for all the women and ordinary people to stay in, and you should go in too."
"Okay." Zhao Jiayan nodded and said worriedly, "Be careful."
"I'm not going to engage in close combat with the Drought Fiend, I guess it won't be dangerous. Don't worry about me."
...
At the endless volcanic group fringe area.
The massive Alliance Headquarters safe zone was situated here.
At the entrance of the massive safe zone, a large crowd was seeing off ten people, the mixed-race middle-aged man, acting president Chen Tianzhi, included.
At this moment, Chen Tianzhi was solemnly handing over a glass bead to a purple-haired youth, admonishing, "This glass bead is the Celestial Marvel 'Absolute Defense,' it was originally my protective item, now I'm lending it to you..."
