Chapter 94: The Overturned World View
There are only about 4-5 million people living in Oceania today, which can be truly described as a vast and sparse population! After the footprints of the Tang Dynasty entered this land, outsiders followed and moved here, bringing high-end production tools and new things that made people gradually gather towards densely populated areas. Until now, several city embryos have formed around the famous scenic spot, the Gold Coast! It is worth noting that at that time, Oceania was still in the Neolithic era before the Tang Dynasty landed, and the people here were still in a primitive tribal society with unopened customs!
Taking advantage of the east wind of Datang, directly crossing over to the social system of the United Empire, it can be said that the foundation is poor! But this also has a good side, that is, the people here are relatively simple, and the centripetal force is guaranteed! At first, they were unable to adapt to emerging technologies, but after tasting the convenience brought by technology, they chose Datang's technological branch - biology! These indigenous people originally had a deep fear of volcanic eruptions, even with the earth-shaking changes brought by Datang, they still had a profound reverence for the power of volcanic eruptions, so it was natural to establish a country name like Huoshen (Fire God), although some people expressed incomprehension and ridicule.
The survival method of the original tribe is to compete with nature for survival. People here can be said to be bold and uninhibited, and their cultivation makes them understand their bodies like the back of their hand. Biology is the most suitable branch of science for them! The knowledge brought by biology, combined with those forbidden life technologies, allows this continent's indigenous people, who number only a few million, to surpass the Great Tang in some aspects after decades of development!
Due to the unique geography of this place, with underwater volcanoes and other special features, the water temperature here is such that it never freezes all year round. In some places, extreme temperatures can even reach 53 degrees! This environment has led to their cultivation properties being fire-attribute in terms of Huaxia martial arts, with extremely high explosive power! Their cultivation system tends towards the fantasy-style "Dòu Qì" (lit. "Fighting Energy"), which circulates throughout their entire body. During battle, they can mobilize their internal energy very quickly, and their might is not to be underestimated. However, this high-intensity explosion also represents that their endurance is very poor, with their internal energy being depleted in a short amount of time, losing their high-intensity killing power! Compared to Huaxia, if one can withstand the initial three blows from these cultivators, the rest of the battle will be easy. Similarly, if one is hit by even just one of these three blows, it's basically a death sentence - their explosive power is too fierce!
Li Yuanba led the army to land, and under his command, using planes for reconnaissance saved a lot of manpower and time. Finally, they discovered a large human settlement at the southern tip of Oceania!
When Li Yuanba arrived with his men, they had already gathered all the troops with strong combat power! The vanguard was a group of ferocious beastmen. In the eyes of the Tang people, this seemed to be a combination of humans and sea beasts, with a total number of several thousand! These beastmen still had some human features, but they had crab-like tentacles growing from the back of their heads, which were of varying lengths but tightly attached to their skulls, with sharp ends pointing forward. Their bodies were covered in scales, their hands were like swollen flesh, and they were a disgusting purple color! These beastmen were all over two meters tall, with bright red eyes that seemed to lack human intelligence, exuding a murderous aura from their entire body! The weapons in their hands were like giant cleavers, over three meters long, but the front section was curved downward for dozens of centimeters, full of violent beauty!
Behind them was an army of seemingly normal people that stretched as far as the eye could see, but among them were some with hands like beastmen, bulging with veins and holding smaller versions of the beastmen's weapons.
"Third brother, why have so many strange things appeared since we started exploring this world?! Look at that, is that even human?! My goodness, has the world changed its appearance or something? I'm still standing in the same spot, how did this happen?! Li Daoxuan was an impatient guy who couldn't help but complain. Although he had already known about these changes, he still couldn't resist speaking out. Every time the Tang Dynasty sent a large-scale expedition to explore the world, his figure would appear jumping around. This time, the beastmen that appeared were not of the same species as before, and even on land, it wasn't enough for this world?! And now there are even giant crab monsters appearing, is the future world really going to become a world of demons and ghosts?!"
"Don't make me a prophet, damn it, I don't even know what's going on in this world! It's all like some sci-fi movie! Look at these people, they're all crazy! They're not human, nor are they ghosts. You go arrange for the fleet's planes to sweep through here and find someone to check out their rear, see if there's anyone who can be supported. But most importantly, try to find out where they're researching this garbage, because these experiments absolutely cannot be allowed to continue! If things keep going like this, I don't know what kind of apocalypse humanity will end up in! It seems that the Tang Dynasty is too powerful, the earth is only so big, unless a global government forms, otherwise the resistance from countries without autonomy won't stop! But this problem is really not easy to solve, different ideologies everywhere, even brothers born of the same womb can become sworn enemies, let alone the vast world!"
"Alright, I'm coming... Whoa, Third Brother, look at what's written on that flag? Fire God United Nations? What the f**k is this? Who came up with such a domineering name, they're already gods!" Li Daoxuan almost choked to death...
Li Yuanba looked at the large flag held by the central army, also looking stunned. This is too far-fetched, it would be okay if this were a fantasy world, but the appearance of this name has clearly ruined three views!
Li Yuanba's mouth twitched: "Damn it, looks like this history has changed a lot! Hurry up and order the bombing, I really can't take it anymore!"
"Oh! Alright!" Li Daoxuan walked to a phone with a puzzled expression and gave an order, muttering to himself: "What historical change?"
Li Yuanba not taking action at this time is to change the way Datang fights, putting aside scientific and technological weapons and directly engaging in close combat. Isn't this abandoning Datang's advantages? At least when charging, you should let your advanced weapons sweep through first! Even in a backward country in Africa, they used second-generation missiles to launch a probe...
Firepower cover and pre-bombing, these are all representative of the different ways of warfare brought about by technology. The sudden appearance of a large number of bombers in the rear of the Tang army made the enemy somewhat puzzled. In puzzlement, they watched as a fire suddenly broke out on the plane, and one by one, powerful missiles carrying the breath of death rushed towards the enemy's army and city. Although puzzled, they knew that such weapons could not be allowed to explode nearby!
One after another, with a fierce and intense energy, they formed a huge flame net that soared into the sky, covering the incoming missile, and the sky was filled with brilliant sparks and smoke that blocked out the sun!
"The world of Gao Wu is full of contradictions! Based on my understanding from my past life, it's really hard to imagine that in this world, such an invincible weapon like a missile can only be effective with quantity, and even then, the damage caused is minimal... Li Yuanba saw that the few missiles that hit their target exploded with such little force that they were easily dodged by the enemy, and some people even withstood them head-on!"
The lethality of the missile is mainly due to the shockwave generated by its explosion, and the power of this shockwave decreases as the range increases. The effective lethal range is about 100 meters, a distance that is easy for people in this world to evade, especially since research has not yet entered the nuclear age!
Li Yuanba swept his gaze around the surrounding soldiers, who also looked puzzled and felt a strong sense of frustration! Their expressions were very obvious, they didn't know why Li Yuanba would use these hundreds of missiles for meaningless bombing.
"Cough, cough..." Li Yuanba let out a few awkward coughs, and suddenly his right hand appeared with a large hammer in it. The "Pursuit" skill, carrying powerful energy and a fierce killing intent, smashed down on the Fire God's flag!
"With a loud crash, dozens of soldiers around were smashed to death. Li Yuanba clicked his tongue and raised the corner of his mouth, his hand weakly waving: "Advance..."
Watching the soldiers rush out, Li Yuanba sighed helplessly: "It's really subverting my worldview..."
