Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot - Chapter 1662: 700 Temporary Relocation_2

Chapter 1662: Chapter 700 Temporary Relocation_2

“Alright! I’ll organize the relocation immediately!”

Gu Yun didn’t hesitate and started preparing for action.

If the relocation succeeds, the worst outcome is merely losing the Changhe Base; as long as people remain, they have the hope of rebuilding the base. If the people are lost, there will be no hope at all.

Everyone quickly got busy.

Wang Tao turned to Han Rui.

“When did this frost appear?”

Han Rui checked the time: “About two hours ago.”

“Two hours ago…”

In Wang Tao’s mind, he simulated this monster as a magma monster and estimated that it probably wouldn’t emerge anytime soon, likely taking at least two or three days to come out.

Of course, this judgment is based on the magma monsters and may not apply to this one, so the sooner they act, the better.

But now there is another problem, which is how to find this monster. Wang Tao didn’t find any tunnel-like paths before; is it necessary to dig a hole directly? He wasn’t sure if it would work, because those magma monsters he saw before seemed suppressed by some mysterious force, having great strength but unable to come out of a hole, which was evidently abnormal…

While pondering, Wang Tao came to the outside of the base again.

Looking at the frost spread all over the ground, Wang Tao searched carefully and indeed found no tunnel. Wang Tao tried digging a hole underground; initially, it was fine, and he could create a large hole with a single punch. But as he dug deeper and it got colder, Wang Tao suddenly found it hard to dig. The soil below gradually became harder than steel. Wang Tao’s fire, capable of melting steel, couldn’t affect this soil.

“There is indeed a problem!”

Wang Tao tried various methods for a while longer, but he couldn’t continue digging and had to give up reluctantly.

“Seems like it’s not time for it to come out yet, for now, we can only relocate the population…”

Wang Tao returned to Changhe Base again, explained the situation to everyone, and started helping them relocate.

Changhe Base currently has a population of a million, and relocating so many people at once is no easy task. However, because of the appearance of a destruction-level monster, everyone thinks that it might not be safe within Changhe Base either, so there’s been a large-scale population transfer plan in place. Now acting according to this plan prevents chaos.

But compared to the population transfer from New Red Maple Base, this still falls short. After all, Han Youlin of New Red Maple Base can command others through brain waves, precisely controlling various components like a computer CPU. It’s not possible at Changhe Base, requiring coordination by many people.

Luckily, the ice attribute monster couldn’t come out for now, giving them some time for transfer, otherwise predicting how many would die would be difficult.

Wang Tao originally planned to visit the Dusk Church in two days, but due to the matter of the ice attribute destruction-level monster, he was busy with population transfer over the past two days. Finally, on the third day, all one million people left Changhe Base.

The temporary base is about a hundred kilometers from Changhe Base, situated between two mountains. This distance isn’t too far, but it’s well beyond the range of the destruction domain. When the ice attribute monster emerges later, the temporary base shouldn’t be affected.

Of course, they not only need to guard against that monster but also other potential destruction-level monsters. The reason Wang Tao was busy for so long was to clear the road of zombie monsters and check for any destruction-level monsters.

His luck was decent; although the journey was not peaceful, there were no law-domain destruction-level monsters, which was fortunate amid misfortune.

After everyone relocated to the temporary base, Wang Tao shared the news from the Bishop with Gu Yun and other top personnel.

“What? Sacrificing the lives of one million people to save all humanity?”

This news was undoubtedly shocking, and if it hadn’t come from Wang Tao, they wouldn’t believe it.

“This is just the Bishop’s perspective; I don’t know whether he can truly save humanity, but he seems indeed capable of having a million people willingly sacrifice themselves! Anyway, help me analyze whether I should collaborate with him, and if I do, what issues might arise…”

In his heart, Wang Tao had begun leaning towards collaborating with the Bishop. It wasn’t because he greatly trusted the Bishop or thought the Bishop could truly be a savior, but rather because the number of destruction-level monsters was growing, leaving no other means to stop them. Whether the collaboration with the Bishop succeeded or not, it had to be tried, at least…

“Alright!”

Gu Yun immediately led a group to start the analysis; after all, they have nothing else to do now, and idle hands are the devil’s workshop.

Speaking of which, after moving away from Changhe Base, the temperature here soared significantly, with most people unable to stand the sixty-degree heat. If not for the Crystal Energy Air Conditioner manufactured by the Hope Research Institute, these people might have died from heat exhaustion…

After tasks were assigned, Wang Tao returned to Changhe Base once more.

At this moment, Changhe Base was eerily quiet; except for him, there wasn’t a soul.

Th𝑖𝕤 𝒸hаpṯ𝖾r 𝘪𝖘 p𝗼ѕṯɛ𝕕 b𝘺 𝒦ɩ𝓉ꬲṅ𝙤𝖛є𝕝

Wang Tao patiently waited, predicting that the ice attribute monster would possibly emerge in three days, which turned out to be longer than expected as it wasn’t until the fifth day that Wang Tao sensed movement.

“It’s here!”

Thud—

Wang Tao faintly heard a series of footsteps emanating from the hole he had previously created.

Moments later, a humanoid monster as transparent as ice emerged from underground.

[HP: 12000000/12000000]

[Level: Seventh Level·Destruction]

[Law Power: Ice (Basic): 100/100]

[Destruction Domain: Ice Prison]

[Ice Prison: Wherever it reaches becomes an ice disaster. Upon its death, the Ice Prison’s area is set and expands]

It was indeed an ice attribute Seventh-Level Destruction monster, and its destruction domain was [Ice Prison]. Just by its name, one can roughly grasp its effects.

Crack—

As it emerged, the ground began freezing instantly, and even the air seemed frozen. As for the Changhe Base, the structures within the [Ice Prison] range were all frozen. Its destruction domain’s range was the same as [Great Drought], but Wang Tao, being far away, was temporarily safe.

Just as Wang Tao was preparing to activate the Law Domain to charge forward and attempt to lure the monster away, the ground near the ice man monster began melting rapidly, forming a circular region devoid of frost.

Then, a rumbling—

A figure familiar to Wang Tao appeared from within that circular region.

“A magma monster?”

The creature was none other than the Sixth-Rank magma monster with the [Great Drought] destruction domain!

After its emergence, the ice man monster immediately charged at the magma monster, launching an attack without a word!

The magma monster wasn’t timid either, swinging its magma-coated body in battle against the ice man monster.

“What’s going on? How come they start fighting each other? Are they not from the same faction?”

Wang Tao was greatly surprised.

Monsters fighting at this time might not necessarily be beneficial for Wang Tao; he planned to lure the ice man monster away, but the appearance of the magma monster might lead them to stay and fight here.

Fortunately, these two monsters didn’t move toward Changhe Base while fighting but slowly moved in the opposite direction.

Wang Tao glanced at the monsters’ blood bars; both were nearly full HP, and the idea of snatching a kill was naturally out of reach. Luckily, the two monsters left without harming Changhe Base, so Wang Tao’s goal was achieved.

Just as Wang Tao was about to share this good news with everyone, his eyelid twitched.

It seemed another destruction-level monster was encountered!

What on earth!

Are there so many of these things now!
