Chapter 91: Chapter 91: The Power of the Mall Weapons!
“`
Parasitizing, by nature, is an act of plunder.
It plunders another civilization’s population, technology, weapons—everything they have.
However, humans have Chosen Ones, which not only brought forth powerful beings like Shen Hao but also many even stronger technologies.
Human civilization is rapidly growing stronger, while Blood Demons can only take what humans have outgrown, doomed to become obsolete.
For the Blood Demons, this is clearly unbearable.
They indeed fear Shen Hao, but more than that, they fear the items he brings from the Chosen One Mall, capable of truly empowering the whole civilization. These are the forces that could potentially exterminate their civilization from its roots, obliterating all their hopes.
Therefore, this plunder is something the Blood Demons must win at all costs!
Even after the attack on New City, they willingly sacrificed countless Blood Demons, including two Mothers that could no longer escape, all to keep Shen Hao tied down there!
At this moment, the base is under a relentless siege of wave after wave of Blood Demons!
The battle alarm had already been sounded, and all fighter jets at the base had taken off. They had to face the remaining low-altitude missiles, while everyone left grabbed their weapons and rushed to the high walls to fire wildly at the incoming Blood Demons.
But there are too many!

It’s overwhelming!
The base is built in a relatively open area, and as far as the eye can see, it seems that Blood Demons fill every inch!
Moreover, these Blood Demons aren’t charging in howling. They’re well-trained, coordinating with each other, launching tiered assaults with various weapons in hand. Song Cheng and others involved in the defense clearly saw a powerful Level 5 Blood Demon wielding five six-barrel machine guns that should have been mounted on vehicles, transforming itself into a mobile metal storm!
A single Blood Demon suppressed a large area where soldiers dared not lift their heads.
“This is just too intense!” Song Cheng shouted loudly. The roar of bullets and shells kept exploding. Even with headsets, you had to shout loudly to hear anything at all.
The rest, including Yang Jun, could only take cover under the thick walls. To charge forward was too dangerous, even peeking out risked grave peril.
They had not expected to face such a scenario upon arrival.
No wonder this nation was in constant retreat.
If all Blood Demons had this attitude, one could not imagine how to fight on the front line!
“Where’s our support, isn’t there any support?” Dong Gong also shouted to General Roger.
“All support encountered interceptions en route! These Blood Demons are fighting as if they don’t cherish their lives!” General Roger was constantly on the phone. It seemed that a shell had landed near the command center, the massive explosion causing him to buzz all over.
The long-range cruise missiles that could offer support had been launched, and all nearby fighter jets had urgently taken off. But the Blood Demons had invaded their anti-air systems and were actively intercepting them.
There was no hope for ground troops.
Shen Hao had just said that Blood Demons were ambushed near almost all main arteries. Even if you drove a tank through the fields, you would be blocked, and there was simply not enough time!
“Otherwise, we’ll have to destroy all the equipment!” decided General Roger grimly.
“Destroy it? Do you have any idea how many points that costs? And some things aren’t so easy to destroy! You better be prepared to blow up the entire base!” Dong Gong shouted back while also calling out commands, “Have the weapons been sent up yet?”
As soon as he realized the Blood Demons’ intentions, he ordered that the batch of weapons originally meant for transport to various locations be taken out and distributed into the hands of every soldier on the front line!
At this very moment, they were indeed having a remarkable effect.
Chen Sihui was at the forefront, explaining to the soldiers how to use each weapon.
“This microwave shock bomb needs to be fired from a grenade launcher and detonated mid-air; if it gets shattered by a bullet, it’s useless. So, avoid enemy fire concentration areas when using it head-on. Joey, demonstrate for us.”
Without hesitation, Joey took the new weapon and observed from behind cover for a couple of seconds before decisively firing.
The microwave shock bomb, significantly bigger than a standard hand grenade, was lobbed high in the air. Then, without making any sound, the firepower they were facing was notably reduced.
Some, emboldened, watched and were surprised to find that a large number of Blood Demons were blasted apart!
Yes, literally blasted apart!
The high-intensity microwave shock released by this weapon could instantly boil liquids, making it highly effective in controlling these formidable Blood Demons with only a few weaknesses!
But this was just the beginning.
“Frozen Cannon! Works like a traditional cannon, creating a wide area of ultra-low temperature to impede the Blood Demons’ advance. It’s still useful when hit by bullets! Resonance Cannon, which has been tuned to Blood Demons’ unique resonance frequency, is an infantry-cutting godsend, killing swathes of Level 1 Blood Demons instantly! Glue Cannon, non-lethal, but even Level 3 or 4 Blood Demons will struggle to escape from it…”
A series of new weapons was delivered to the hands on the front line, and the soldiers’ counterattack finally began to make an impact. The Blood Demons’ assault was barely held back.
A commander even ordered to bombard with Glue Cannons in a circle, creating a natural barrier that greatly hindered the Blood Demons’ offensive surge!
“`
This is the advantage of war brought by advanced technology!
“If only you had come earlier, even just to deliver a weapon,” a Chosen One from West State couldn’t help saying, “Our front line is fighting extremely hard, especially in terms of weaponry. The Blood Demons’ weaponry is specially designed to counter Humans, but our weapons are not that lethal to Blood Demons.”
Indeed, all weapons designed and produced by Humanity in the past were only prepared for Humans themselves.
Facing enemies like the Blood Demons, the technological disadvantage is huge.
But Chen Sihui only replied indifferently, “Come earlier to deliver weapons, and then let you turn around and hand them over to the Blood Demons?”
That Chosen One was silenced all at once.
So were the rest of them.
The joy of temporarily suppressing the Blood Demons was all of a sudden gone.
Now they all knew about the events unfolding in New City; not to mention New City, just consider their own location.
It was astonishing that, in such a short time, the Blood Demons knew about the large amount of weapons and equipment left by Shen Hao, and they audaciously launched an attack of this scale. No one would believe there were no traitors within their base.
“Those damned traitors, they all deserve to go to hell!”
“They will.” Chen Sihui suddenly looked up, “The Blood Demons have slowed down their attack.”
“Have they given up?” Joey’s face lit up with joy.
“No, the real battle is about to begin.” Chen Sihui shouted abruptly, “Look to the sky!”
Everyone looked up, and they could clearly see dozens of black dots coming from the distant sky, no less than hundreds, maybe even close to a thousand!
Those who could see clearly through telescopes what those were, were completely stunned.
Blood Demons! All of them were Blood Demons, with the ability to form huge wings from blood and thus fly in the sky!
——Level 6!
This was the signature power owned by Sixth-level Blood Demons!
Even at this moment, the onslaught of ordinary Blood Demons outside intensified further, and one could see tanks and military vehicles loaded with heavy weapons rushing forward—not reinforcements for Humans but support for the Blood Demons!
Some faces were already pale, even the most battle-hardened warriors felt an immense despair!
Even Joey felt the same.
His strength was still only fifth level, and he had barely fought Level 5 Blood Demons before! And here, there were hundreds of Level 6 Blood Demons!
“Stop dazing, prepare to fight!” Chen Sihui stood up, gesturing with both hands, and a glove covered in threads appeared in her palms; with another wave, five puppets of different shapes and sizes appeared in front of her!
These were weapons and equipment specially prepared for her by Shen Hao, and only she, with her [Skillful Hand], could utilize these powerful puppet-class weapons to their maximum effect!
“Why.” Joey watched the girl who was more than a decade younger than him, somewhat dazedly, “Aren’t you afraid?”
“What’s there to be afraid of?” replied Gu Qiuyue. This sixteen-year-old girl hopped over from not far away.
“Qiuyue, go to the east side of the warehouse. I’ll take care of the top,” Chen Sihui raised her hand, and a puppet that was clearly shield-type moved to her side, enveloping her entirely, sealed tightly, “After getting these treasures, I haven’t really had a chance to use them.”
“Okay.”
Gu Qiuyue nodded, also somewhat eager to try.
Level 6 Blood Demons, this was their first encounter.
If the Blood Demon Mother were to come, even better!
Without anyone else’s arrangement, when all the soldiers were feeling the ultimate despair, even when General Roger had slumped into a chair, Yang Jun, Liu Ruoxi, Song Cheng, and Cheng Youqing—the handful of Chosen Ones—had already silently gathered near the large warehouse.
This was the target of the Blood Demons and also the place they needed to defend.
Just six people, including a sixteen-year-old girl, but there was not a hint of nervousness or unease to be seen!
At this moment, Joey and others even felt somewhat ashamed!
“Fellows, this is not the time to fall!” He stood up, shouting loudly, “Our allies from the Far East haven’t lost hope, how can we give up!”
Violent cannonfire resounded again at the same time! The battle was sparked anew!
The Blood Demons in the high sky were getting closer, and one could even hear their roaring—these monsters, having acquired blood-red wings, looked increasingly like demons from legends!
However, aside from the West State soldiers plunged in despair, Liu Ruoxi and her companions showed no fear, not even Dong Gong who had fully taken over the command in the headquarters!
