258: Return to Freedom Island!
“The squad sent to Tropical Continent has all gone missing!”
“Didn’t they all carry photographic equipment? Didn’t any images get sent back?”
A man in a high-ranking military uniform frowned upon hearing this. “Harag has already failed once. If the people sent this time cannot complete the cooperation with the Ant King on Tropical Continent, our Freedom Island… will truly be in danger.”
“No!”
“With the great changes in the world, the existing network cannot connect to that side at all. We don’t know what suddenly happened, and we can’t get in touch with them!”
Another person, also wearing a high-ranking military uniform, seemed to be in charge of the squad’s deployment and other matters. “Once they leave the range of our Freedom Island, our communication will be cut off. We can only see what they discovered along the way when all of them return.”
“Although we can use positioning to determine the squad’s location, they were almost instantly wiped out, and we can’t find the reason at all!”
“What exactly went wrong?”
At this moment, the most senior high-ranking military officer showed a bewildered expression. “Just a few days ago, we received news that the Ant King had agreed to cooperate with us. Why have they suddenly lost contact now?”
“Could it be that the Ant King wants to go back on his word?”
These high-ranking military officers discussing were all from Freedom Island. They were currently in a scientific research laboratory, pondering whether they needed to send out a second squad to confirm the news and continue their cooperation with the Ant King.
But what they didn’t know was that five days ago, the squad they sent to Tropical Continent to contact the Ant King had already been killed, and the killer was already on his way to Freedom Island.
“My King, this is Freedom Island!”
In the sky above Freedom Island, Black Dragon King carried Xia Fan, flying at extreme speed in a very high-profile manner, not concealing his whereabouts at all. “Once, this place was enslaved by Xiou, but they later turned the tables.”
“Little Black has always wanted to conquer this place!”
It must be said that since the great changes in the world, the area of Freedom Island had not expanded much, which led to Freedom Island frequently suffering attacks from sea beasts, especially Godzilla, the giant beast that landed from the southern sea. He had now traversed a quarter of Freedom Island’s territory, and only continued forward after rampaging through all places.
Wherever Godzilla passed, war and chaos were commonplace!
“Report!”
Just as the numerous high-ranking military officers were still discussing in the scientific research laboratory, a soldier suddenly rushed in. “We discovered a giant beast rapidly approaching in the western sky!”
Hearing this, the high-ranking military officers exchanged glances, and then someone ordered, “Play it and see.”
“Yes!”
On the large screen in the laboratory, a series of images instantly appeared. However, because Black Dragon King’s speed was too fast, existing equipment found it difficult to capture clear images. Everyone could only see a large black mass flying at high speed.
But at this moment, no one was in the mood to criticize the image quality.
After watching a portion of the video, a military officer said in a deep voice, “It’s a flying ferocious beast, and it’s not just killing everyone it sees, so it must be coming to our Freedom Island with a purpose.”
“It seems a lot of trouble will descend soon. Everyone, be prepared.”
For a time, everyone was somewhat flustered and at a loss for what to do.
Within Freedom Island, although a Godzilla was rampaging, this guy was also very powerful and violent, but the area he advanced each day was not large, especially compared to other ferocious beasts, he seemed very slow.
Moreover, after Godzilla killed or ate some people, he would stop to rest because he was tired or too full, and during this period, it was actually the safest time.
This was an experience that the people of Freedom Island had discovered and had not changed since its discovery.
The most important point was that once Godzilla selected a direction, he would generally continue to advance and would not directly bypass certain places.
And the flying giant beast in the sky, from its appearance until now, seemed to be searching for something, very purposefully!
“Looking at this direction…”
A high-ranking military officer carefully watched all the video footage, and combining it with the map of Freedom Island, he was immediately startled. “It’s heading for the research base!”
“What?”
Instantly, many high-ranking military officers were in a panic. Some even immediately stood up. “Quickly send people to intercept it, we need to evacuate from here first!”
“We absolutely cannot let that ferocious beast reach the research base!”
“Evacuate?”
In response, someone voiced a differing opinion. “If we leave, what about all these research materials here? Are we to abandon all the hard-earned research results?”
“Then wouldn’t everything we’ve done before be in vain?”
“Take the confidential documents!”
Another military officer, also advocating for evacuation, packed his things while urging the others. “Except for the confidential documents, the rest of the materials can only be discarded!”
“If you hesitate any longer, you will only die here!”
After a scolding, all the high-ranking military officers came to their senses, quickly took the confidential documents, and ran out of the experimental base, preparing to leave by plane.
But as soon as they reached the tarmac, they suddenly found a huge shadow cast over them.
When they looked up, everyone was greatly alarmed.
In the sky, a black giant dragon with wings spanning thousands of meters descended with a roar, instantly instilling fear in everyone!
Under such circumstances, no one dared to act rashly. After all, even the strongest human here was only at the fourth rank at most. Facing Black Dragon King, he would die in one claw.
Not to mention that those thermal weapons could not stop Black Dragon King at all!
“Respected Black Dragon King, why have you come?”
“Please, Dragon King, spare me. I am willing to follow Lord Dragon King for life!”
For a time, countless people knelt down, begging Black Dragon King to spare their lives. Some people seemed to have noticed something and, reacting quickly, shouted loudly, “Black Dragon King, we can help you evolve quickly, we have the relevant methods!”
“As long as Black Dragon King spares our lives, all these methods are yours!”
“These weak ants are truly ridiculous!”
Black Dragon King glanced at this group of humans with disdain, but still slowly descended.
It wasn’t until the black giant dragon was prostrate on the ground that everyone clearly saw that on Black Dragon King’s back, there was actually a Giant Tiger standing. At this moment, the Giant Tiger was squinting his eyes, surveying his surroundings.
“Tiger King!”
The people of Freedom Island had dealings with Xia Fan, and their interactions were not very pleasant. Now, seeing Tiger King again, their hearts almost sank.
In an instant, they recalled the painful memories from before the great changes in the world, and couldn't help but tremble! (End of this chapter)
