167: Otherworld Origin

Freezing the ocean is definitely beyond the current capabilities of the Xinhuo Train and Sanmin Base.

But can mere tides controlled by some low-level Snake People and Crab People even be called an ocean?

In this localized struggle between ice and water, the side with stronger power always has the advantage.

Not to mention, what was thrown out by the shovel buckets were quick-frozen ice blocks produced by a Level 10 refrigerator with inherent properties.

And so, the tide changed.

The ocean tides, manipulated to rush onto land, quickly turned bluer, from deep blue to azure, reflecting a dazzling glow under the giant searchlights.

The individual Crab People and Snake People, with their ferocious faces, had even their tiniest new scales clearly visible.

However, at this moment, they had all turned into lifelike, motionless ice sculptures.

The distant tide crashed against the several-zhang-high ice wall, making a slapping sound.

Clearly, these weak sea creatures could not represent the ocean.

Silver Sand had previously stayed at the very back of the team, hoping to reap the benefits of a fisherman. Seeing this scene, the look of horror on his face overflowed like a tide.

He had originally expected a head-on confrontation, at least for a while, but he never thought such a scene would occur.

What's the point of fighting now?!

What terrified him even more was the rumbling roar, like a giant dragon's bellow, coming from behind the distant city wall.

Shells from the PLZ Vehicle-Mounted Howitzer, like a red dragon's breath, accurately landed on the frozen tide within a square li.

Thus, as countless shells fell, the ice sculptures, which had been frozen lifelike, instantly turned into dust as if struck by a ten-thousand-ton hammer.

The first wave of charging Crab People and Snake People—

Was instantly annihilated!!!

The ice wall was shattered, and the tide, carrying broken ice and various dismembered body parts, drifted back and forth, staining the nearshore a vivid red.

Silver Sand was completely enveloped by an emotion called fear for the first time.

The Great Seaserpent, his contracted sea beast lurking at the bottom of the sea, continuously sent him mental signals to escape.

The content of the signal was simple yet intense.

Run! Otherwise, we will die!!

Silver Sand ‘followed the good advice,’ not even bothering to ‘loot the corpse’ of the Crab People's Great Seaserpent, which had floated to the surface and had originally been with his own Great Seaserpent.

The Crab People were completely annihilated, and their divine beast, the Great Seaserpent, which was connected to their racial destiny and catalyzed by the Crab People, now only faced the fate of perishing with them.

Thus, the giant serpent corpse hovering on the sea surface became Lu Yang's spoils of war.

[Detected an item containing the Hanhai World Plane Origin. After assimilation, it can accelerate the territory's stationed speed. Do you wish to assimilate it?]

The Great Seaserpent corpse from the Crab People was several times larger than the two Silver Scale Sea Serpent corpses previously obtained from the Chenmao Tribe combined.

The cloud rain pearls extracted from its brain were even more brilliant and mystical compared to the cloud rain pearls previously obtained from the Chenmao Tribe.

It's somewhat similar to the difference between a rough blank and a finished product.

Originally, Lu Yang planned to refine this cloud rain pearls into his previous cloud rain pearls to improve its quality.

Now, upon seeing the Strongest Train Captain System, which had been silent since entering Hanhai Star, suddenly deliver good news.

What reason did he have to disagree?

“Assimilate, assimilate immediately!!”

In fact, ever since entering Hanhai Star, he had already understood why the highest difficulty task limit for his Level 4 Train upgrade's ‘Civilization Pioneer task’ was 30 days.

Because that was the time for the pioneering territory to truly take root on Hanhai Star. Only when the temporary territory becomes a formal territory and merges with Hanhai Star.

Will these visitors from another world no longer be targeted by Hanhai Star's origin.

It's somewhat similar to a village where outsiders migrate. At first, the villagers will definitely be very hostile and watchful of this migrant.

But if this migrant can withstand the pressure, find a piece of land in the village, and build his own house, then once the house is built, everyone will basically accept your residence in this village.

As long as you don't do anything that harms the village, no one will bother you.

And now, what Lu Yang is doing is building a house in this ‘village’ of Hanhai Star.

The cloud rain pearls from the Great Seaserpent is like a usable finished brick found in ruins; once assimilated, it can greatly speed up the foundation-laying process.

But this also means that it might invite even more intense targeting from the villagers.

Because if these outsiders are not driven away soon, they will truly take root here.
