Chapter 1439 Torrential Rain

“What heavy rain!”

The torrential rain was before him, and accompanied by a deafening roar, it descended fiercely toward the earth from the sky. It was so heavy that calling it a waterfall flowing down from a height of three thousand feet would not fit. It was as if a spatial crack had been opened in the sky that led directly to the bottom of the sea. It attracted several hundred million tons of seawater and instantly turned the foot of Monster Mountain Range into a water country.

Even though Meng Chao had broken through to the Deity Realm a long time ago, part of him possessed the ability to influence the planet’s magnetic field and change the microclimate within a hundred-meter radius.

He still felt a slight burning pain when the fist-sized raindrops hit his face like hail.

That meant the rain was mixed with a large amount of trace elements that contained spirit energy. It was just like the acid rain on Earth. It carried extremely strong corrosive, as well as destructive power, and it would cause serious damage to the human body, machinery, and buildings.

Meng Chao clicked his tongue in amazement, and he was extremely shocked.

In his memory, he had never encountered such a rainstorm.

It seemed that the mist that separated Dragon City and Tulan Ze had gradually disappeared.

However, the interference of Dragon City’s passage on the planet’s magnetic field would continue for a long time.

During this period of time, earthquakes, rainstorms, droughts, insect disasters, volcanic eruptions… all kinds of extreme weather and disasters could happen at any time.

Humans still needed to work together to survive in such a cruel environment. “This area is the remnant of the monster mountain range.

“The terrain is uneven and fragmented. There are hills and valleys everywhere, forming crisscrossing natural ravines. “The unruly Tulan River has changed its course many times in history, washing away the vegetation on the hills.

“The crossing of Dragon City led to a flood, which swept through the entire monster mountain range and uprooted countless towering trees.

“The Bare Hills in front of us can not hold much rain.

“The torrential rain falls directly from the mountains into the valley. It is easy for the torrential flood to gather and cause an even greater disaster!”

Meng Chao frowned slightly.

With a thought, electric currents that were as fast as lightning were triggered deep inside his brain. They were instantly transmitted to the cells on both sides of his spine.

The mitochondria received the command and immediately output energy at a hundred times the power.

Every cell of his was beating crazily at a frequency visible to the naked eye.

A pair of colorful and clearly visible wings made of pure spiritual energy spurted out from both sides of his spine and extended toward the space almost a hundred meters away.

Within the coverage of the spiritual wings, the fist-sized raindrops that were as big as hailstones or even meteorites, which contained a tiny amount of spiritual energy and were emitting astonishing noises, were all vaporized into colorful mist, then, they were sucked into the burning spiritual flames around Meng Chao’s body, which made him look like a jet fighter. He was moving at lightning speed toward the horizon where the stars were faintly shining Soon, dozens of kilometers were swallowed by Meng Chao’s spiritual wings.

The flickering stars outlined the outline of the giant machines and buildings in the depths of the curtain of rain.

With the extraordinary vision of a godly state expert, Meng Chao saw mines, factories, signal towers, quarries, ultra-high-voltage power transmission towers, and spiritual gas pipelines that were more than five meters in diameter and meandering like giant dragons, there were also railway tracks that extended in all directions as if they were alive, as well as heavy trains that were filled with ores and crouching like Giant Beasts.

These symbols of Dragon City civilization made Meng Chao feel both kind and touched, and even a bit of “Homesickness”.

“Finally, I’m Back!”

Meng Chao suppressed his surging emotions and scanned everything he saw with a more detailed gaze.

He couldn’t wait to grasp more information and figure out how much his hometown had changed in the nearly one year since he left Dragon City, and whether the lives of the citizens had become better or worse, several key technologies that had stagnated for many years, whether there had been a breakthrough in progress after the victory of the Monster War, and whether the remnants of the monster civilization had jumped out to stir up trouble.., had they turned Dragon City into an unrecognizable state?

Fortunately, judging from the buildings that were still brightly lit in the torrential rain, Dragon City still maintained a vibrant appearance and an aggressive spirit.

And judging from the size of the few super mining vehicles and the diameter of the wheel-type bucket, Dragon City had also made great progress in the fields of materials science, mechanical power, and rune technology.

Such a super mining vehicle must be stabilized by hundreds of caterpillar tracks and supporting feet. Its self-weight must exceed a thousand tons, and its full weight might even exceed five thousand tons. It is literally a ‘Land Cruiser’.

With such a huge scale and weight, the casting materials, the mechanical transmission, and the runes carved on the inside and outside are all highly demanding. It is definitely not as simple as magnifying the scale of an ordinary mining vehicle.

“Even the controller of the vehicle was not an ordinary extraordinary human being. He had to be at least a heavenly state expert!

“However, after paying a price of too complicated a structure, too high of a manufacturing cost, and too difficult of a manipulation, the amount of excavation was also extremely shocking. Look at the bucket-like shovels, which looked like bloody mouths. They were enough to dig out a mountain in one night!

“When I was still in Dragon City, such a colossus of the ‘Land Cruiser’level was merely an idea on paper.

“I didn’t expect that it would really appear in just over a year. It was roaring like an earthling in the land of the Otherworld!

“It seems that the rich heritage of the monster civilization has indeed stimulated the technological and industrial strength of Dragon City. It is advancing at a tremendous speed.

“My civilization is changing with each passing day. The birds and the guns have changed!” The progress of Dragon City made Meng Chao extremely happy.

However, the slightly messy lights that seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see also aroused his worries.

Meng Chao felt that Dragon City seemed to be rushing to develop the world outside the monster mountain range. One had to know that the southern border of Tulan ze was not a fertile land with abundant resources.

Otherwise, it would not have been treated as a chicken rib by the five major clans. It would have been a waste to discard it.

Even if there was a crystal lode deep underground, it must have been touched by ‘Mother Origin’a long time ago. It was extremely difficult to develop and utilize it, and the cost was extremely high.

If one were to calculate the economic account, if one were to develop wantonly here, it would be easy to lose everything if one was not careful!

However, judging from the signs he saw on the armored airship, the spiritual magnetic communication tower, and the super mining vehicle, all the nine Super Enterprises of Dragon City had appeared here in a swarm. They were like horses riding on horseback and occupying the mountains as their kings, they were building a new satellite city here. “It’s so strange. Didn’t we just win the War of Monsters? The resources in the hidden fog domain alone should be able to be developed for a long time!”

Meng Chao mumbled to himself, “Is there a need for the nine super corporations to expand beyond the mountain range of monsters in such a hurry?

“Even if they really want to expand, they should at least carry out the most detailed mapping and exploration to find out how many resources are hidden underground, right?

“Why do I feel like the nine super corporations have all been reincarnated as hungry ghosts? Are they not afraid of losing money and even causing some big trouble?”

As expected, before Meng Chao finished his sentence, he saw a series of dazzling sparks flashing in the southwest darkness.

Meng Chao pricked up his ears. His eardrums were vibrating at an extremely high speed, collecting the tiniest sounds from the southwest.

Soon, he could distinguish the extremely weak, cracking, cracking sounds of metal fatigue from the torrential rain.

Meng Chao could even sketch the scene in the southwest based on the rhythmic metal fatigue sounds. A large steel structure more than fifty meters tall was breaking and collapsing!

Meng Chao’s pupils constricted. Like a blurred shadow, he disappeared into the night.

The raindrops the size of fists were still firing at the ground like the densest bullet curtain.

However, not a single raindrop could touch even half of his hair.

In the span of a breath, Meng Chao appeared at the origin of the Lightning and noise.

He discovered that beneath his feet was a crystal communication tower that was seventy to eighty meters tall.

Although this crystal communication tower also used reinforced concrete to build a solid foundation, under normal circumstances, there was no risk of collapse.

However, in order to obtain endless resources from the world outside the Monster Mountains as soon as possible, the builders of the tower did not consider the effects of extreme weather such as earthquakes, rainstorms, volcanic eruptions, and tornadoes.

The sudden rainstorm not only soaked the foundation of the crystal communication tower in the highly corrosive ‘acid rain’.

It also stripped away what remained of the soil on the nearby hills and crushed the rocks beneath it, creating a flood-dragon-like mudslide that battered human buildings and facilities, including Crystal Communication Towers.

Even though the steel structure of the tower itself is impenetrable.

But with the soil around the foundation hollowed out and the rock crushed, it could not withstand the constant impact of the debris flow.

In a series of increasingly sharp, scalp-numbing metal fatigue sounds, the crystal communication tower was like a giant that had been fatally wounded. It gradually tilted south, about to break through the critical point of collapse.

To make matters worse, on the south side of the Crystal Communication Tower, there was also a temporary camp.

From the honeycomb-like windows, this temporary building that seemed to have been piled up with containers, there were at least hundreds of workers living in it.

Most of the miners and construction workers were exhausted from the heavy work during the day and had fallen into a deep sleep.

The rainstorm came too suddenly, and the workers had long been used to sleeping amid the deafening sounds of excavation and destruction. Many workers were still sleeping when they were surrounded by the flood and were about to be collapsed by the Crystal Communication Tower again, they were hit right on the spot.

“Let’s Save the People First!”

A brilliance flashed in Meng Chao’s eyes.

At this moment, all his plans were thrown to the back of his mind.

Without hesitation, Meng Chao smashed himself into the ground from the high sky and into the water and mud.
