Beast Taming Era: I Became Groudon

Chapter 194 Cleaning
"All soldiers, please be alert and bypass the exposed seabed ahead." After taking a deep breath and finally calming himself down a little, Major General Mingguo spoke into the microphone, his voice quickly spreading throughout the fleet.

Although he was very angry at his soldiers, it was obviously impossible to seek revenge on that damn lava now.

How could they fight against a natural disaster like molten lava with just human and material resources? This was just like trying to stop a chariot with one's arms, which only caused them greater losses.

What they can do now is to bypass the damn magma in front and reach the place where the natural gas veins are located for exploration.

Only in this way can we comfort the souls of the dead soldiers in heaven.

"General, General Yorkser of the Ling Fleet wants to speak to you."

After receiving the request from the Ling State fleet, the communicator in the communication room said to the furious general.

"Please connect me." Hearing this, the major general took a deep breath and said.

"Yes, General." The liaison officer nodded and pressed the button.

"Jiro Ishii, you are a little slow. What's the situation at the front?" After the call was connected, Yorkser's voice was heard from the other side of the headset.

After they received the call for help from the other fleet, they have been rushing here, but they did not move forward very fast. Instead, they prepared to let the Ming Kingdom fleet explore the way before coming over.

"The situation ahead is not good. A large area of ​​molten lava has appeared." Jiro Ishii responded without hiding what they had found out.

"Malta? That's not good news, man." Yorkser said, "Send me the location where you found the molten lava. I have to avoid that damn place."

The appearance of magma in the sea area they were heading to was not good news. If they were not careful, they would most likely be wiped out.

Lava is known as one of the most terrifying disasters in nature, and it is not just talk.

Although their fleet used the latest materials, it was no match for the blazing magma.

"No problem, I'll send you the coordinates right away." Upon hearing this, Jiro Ishii replied and asked the communicator to send the coordinates to Yorkser.

"Whoa"

At this moment, a huge sound of water flow suddenly came from outside the fleet, which quickly brought Jiro Ishii back to his senses from the call: "What's going on? What happened outside? Why is there such a loud sound of water?"

"General, something terrible has happened. The sea ahead has suddenly sunk, and all the water inside has disappeared, as if someone had carried it away." At this moment, a soldier who staggered in from outside said in panic.

It was so terrifying! They were moving forward just fine, and suddenly a huge gap appeared on the sea ahead.

The sea water seemed to have evaporated suddenly, and a huge hole appeared.

"How is this possible?" Upon hearing this, Jiro Ishii's pupils widened. He no longer had the mood to reply to Yorkser on the other end of the phone. He trotted out of the liaison room and came to the deck above the warship.

"General, look there." The panicked soldier followed Jiro Ishii onto the deck and pointed forward and spoke.

A huge gap appeared there, and sea water kept pouring into it.

"What is going on? The location that the helicopter just reported is clearly thirty nautical miles away. Could it be that this damn thing can move?" Jiro Ishii was in a trance as he looked at the gap in the distance.

How long has it been? Why did this ghost thing appear here? This is simply unbelievable.

"General, what should we do now? Should we continue to move forward or go around?" the soldier asked in panic, looking like he was about to cry.

He never backed down when facing enemies or beastmasters.

But after seeing this strange scene in front of him, he finally couldn't help it.

Poseidon, it must be Poseidon punishing them. Only the omnipotent Poseidon can do this, to separate the sea water and block their progress. They must have offended Poseidon, and Poseidon is punishing them.

"Why are you panicking? Is the person dead? There is no road ahead, can't you take a detour?" Jiro Ishii's face changed and he shouted loudly.

He ordered the fleet to bypass the front and continue to head towards the location of the natural gas vein.

After hearing the fate of the fleet, they followed Jiro Ishii's orders and slowly moved forward along the exposed seabed.

But when they saw the endless seabed, they couldn't help but tremble.

If it weren't for military discipline, they would have been unable to resist kneeling and begging. Lord Poseidon had forgiven them.

"What the hell happened with Ishii Jiro? Why did he just run away without replying to me?" Yorkser said while holding the walkie-talkie, suppressing his anger. It was the first time he had seen someone so disrespectful to him. He was clearly talking to him, but suddenly he left him alone.

"I'm sorry! General Yorkser." Ishii Jiro looked at the red light that illuminated the sky in the distance and said, "I didn't mean to do this, but the sea water ahead was cut off, and the seabed with a drop of several thousand meters was exposed to us."

"And I discovered something very scary, which is why I didn't have time to call."

"What on earth has made you so panic? As a soldier, you should understand that you should stay calm no matter what happens." Yorkser said arrogantly. How could he forget the qualities a soldier should have just because of a small incident?
It seems that the military strength of Ming Kingdom is just so-so.

"The magma that forces back the sea water will move." said Jiro Ishii.

"Isn't this nonsense? Water flows to lower places and capacity is no exception." Yorkser said unhappily upon hearing this. The molten lava is already flowing towards each other. Do you think the molten lava will stay where it is?

"I think General Yorkser, you misunderstood me. What I meant was that the magma can move, and at a very fast speed, and it has its own consciousness," explained Jiro Ishii.

"Are you kidding? How can magma have its own consciousness?" Yorkser thought it was outrageous. This excuse sounded like the words of an incompetent person.

"But this is the truth, General Yorkser." Ishii Jiro said as he watched the red light in the distance getting closer and closer: "I know it's hard for you to believe this, but this is the truth of what happened to me."

"Okay... okay, this general will take what you said as true. Just send me the location of the lava you encountered." After hearing this, Yorkser no longer wanted to listen to the other party. In his opinion, the other party was not only useless, but also very incompetent.

Can you at least find a better excuse? How could you say something so outrageous?

"No problem." Jiro Ishii replied and asked the liaison to send their current location to the other party.

"Don't move over there, I'll bring the fleet here right away." Joseph said after receiving the location coordinates. He wanted to see what the conscious magma that the other party mentioned looked like.

"Okay." Jiro Ishii nodded and led the fleet away from the exposed seabed and headed towards the calm sea nearby.

"It seems like I'm lucky. I found the fleet so quickly."

Zhong Cong, who was moving along with the magma, suddenly smiled happily after discovering the fleet on the sea.

There is no mistake about this flag, it definitely does not belong to Xuan Country.

Since he is not from Xuan Country, he can do whatever he wants and do whatever he wants.

"Observe the sea carefully and keep a close eye on the radar. Report immediately if you find anything wrong." Jiro Ishii on the Ming Kingdom fleet stared at the bright red sea and felt very panicked. He didn't know why a feeling of uneasiness filled his heart, as if a disaster was going to happen in the next second.

But thinking of the agreement with Yorkser of Ling State, he suppressed the tension in his heart and waited there.

The marines who heard this also left the cabin and stood on the deck, looking around carefully. If there was anything wrong, they would be ready to report it immediately.

"Te~te~te"

At this moment, the propeller of the warship suddenly stopped working, and the sea water surrounding the fleet disappeared in an instant. The marines sitting on the warship were stunned.

Then his face turned pale instantly and he screamed.

"What's going on? Where is the surrounding seawater? Where did it go?"

Feeling the sense of weightlessness coming from under his feet, Jiro Ishii couldn't help but say in horror.

How could the sea water suddenly disappear? He clearly didn't notice anything. How could this happen?

"Ah ah..." No one could answer Jiro Ishii's question. The only sounds coming from the warship were their screams of fear. As marines performing missions at sea, they were not equipped with parachuting equipment like the air force.

Now falling from a height of several thousand meters to the seabed, their fate has been decided at this moment.

"boom"

The loud crash was the last sound the Marines heard in their lives, and the fireworks from the ship's engine explosion became the last sight they saw.

Knowing that the flames had consumed them completely also indicated that they had reached the last moment of their lives.

"Come out, come out now! Don't think I don't know you just because you're hiding in the lava, monster, get out of here now."

After Jiro Ishii slowly landed from the air, flapping his tumorous wings, a crazy look appeared on his face and he shouted towards the molten lava.

It's all gone, the fleet he led is completely destroyed.

How could he go back with such a face? He had become a sinner of the empire, and it was all because of this damn lava.

He wanted to kill the monster in the molten lava and take revenge.

"Huh? Could this guy be crazy?" Hearing this, Zhong Cong raised his head, stood up from the lava and appeared in front of Jiro Ishii.

"Monster, I knew that the magma couldn't move by itself, I knew that a monster was controlling it." Ishii Jiro said crazily as he looked at Zhong Cong who was lifted up by the magma and revealed his true form.

He rushed towards Zhong Cong holding the saber at his waist.

"Are you seriously ill?" Seeing this scene, Zhong Cong was speechless.

He opened his mouth and spit out molten lava that submerged Jiro Ishii. He could see that this guy had gone completely crazy because his entire fleet was gone. He actually dared to rush over with a saber in hand. He thought his body had become a saint.

He actually dared to fight with him, a great divine beast. Doesn’t he think he’s so awesome?

"Boom boom"

"Boom boom"

After the boiling magma swallowed up the debris of the warship on the seabed, it left behind a ground full of lava. After Zhong Cong lay back in the magma, he continued to move forward.

It was good that a total of seven warships were destroyed this time, but there were more than that many warships in the Zisha Sea Area, so he had to work harder to deal with them all.

"Jiro Ishii, please reply quickly and report on your actions in the Zisha Sea Area."

"Ishii Jiro, can you hear me?"

Inside the naval headquarters of Ming Country, the general who was paying close attention to the situation in the Zisha Sea area shouted into the intercom, but all that came from the intercom was a "beep" sound mixed with electric current.

"Damn it, what's going on?" The general listened for a long time but didn't hear any response from the other side. He couldn't help but cursed: "The communicator, call Ishii Jiro's fleet and see what this bastard is doing. He didn't even reply to my message."

"Yes, General." The communicator replied after hearing this and did it immediately.

"Drip drip"

"Drip drip"

There was a sound of a machine jumping from the communication room, but soon the liaison officer came back with a panicked look: "General, it's not good. The fleet led by Major General Jiro Ishii cannot be connected. It seems that they have lost contact."

"What!" The general's face suddenly turned ugly after hearing this: "Could it be that Xuanguo has already taken action against Ishii Jiro and his men?"

"That's impossible. They don't dare to take action against so many countries. If they do, they will definitely be besieged."

Xuan State used to be bullied without saying a word. Although it took a tough stance last year, they have united so many neighboring countries to put pressure on them. Unless the enemy launches wars on multiple fronts at the same time, how can they dare to attack their people?

"Hurry up and investigate what happened in the Zisha Sea?" The general said after thinking about this.

Otherwise, if the possibility of Xuan State taking action is relatively small, then the only possibility left is a natural disaster. After all, the volcanic eruption in the Zisha Sea was very powerful.

It is possible that Jiro Ishii and his men were affected by the magnetic field of the volcanic eruption, which led to the loss of contact with them.

"Yes, General." Upon hearing this, the liaison officer immediately activated the satellite map and soon saw that the Zisha Sea area had turned red. The bright red light and the blue sea next to it formed a clear picture.

"This is……"

The general was slightly stunned when he saw this scene. Why was the nautical chart of the Zisha Sea like this?

"Report to the general, the volcano in the Zisha Sea is erupting, which is why this situation has occurred." The Marine reported.

"So it was a volcanic eruption." The general looked at the scene and said, "What's the news from Xuan Country?"

"Report to the General. We just learned from the Xuan Kingdom's news broadcast that the volcano in the Zisha Sea has erupted on a large scale. The Xuan Kingdom government has called on the people not to go out to sea." The marine said after taking out the video footage and playing it.

"I knew it was because of the volcanic eruption there. How could the cowardly Xuan Nation dare to attack our military alliance?" Hearing this, the general couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said, "When the situation in the Zisha Sea area gets better, we will contact Ishii Jiro and ask them what the current situation is like?"

"Okay, General." The Marine nodded, and the general left with peace of mind.

On the other side, with Zhong Cong's activities in the Zisha Sea, the originally calm sea surface became stormy and turbulent. The navy of the Ling Kingdom, which received the position of Ishii Jiro, came with a group of fleets from other countries to form a mighty alliance of hundreds of ships. On one of the warships, generals from many countries gathered together:
"General Yorkser, I wonder if Jiro Ishii, who is as timid as a mouse, will wait for us right here?"

"Yeah, if he escapes early, wouldn't our trip be in vain?"

"Yes, I've heard that the military discipline of Ming Nation is lax, but I didn't expect them to use the fact that the magma is alive as an excuse."

These countries seemed to have long been accustomed to belittling Ming Country to promote their own countries. They did not think there was anything wrong with it and were very happy about it.

"We are allies now, and it is not okay to speak ill of others behind their backs."

Yorkser spoke when he heard this, and was disgusted by the looks on everyone's faces. Although Jiro Ishii was useless, he dared to sail alone with his fleet in the Zisha Sea.

On the contrary, these guys laughed one by one, unwilling to be left behind, but none of them could leave alone.

"Yes, General Yorkser is right. We have gone too far."

"Yes, we are very ungentlemanly compared to General Yorkser."

When the generals heard this, they stopped talking about the topic.

Yorkser was very unhappy when he saw this. How could such a flatterer and backstabber be promoted to major general? It was really embarrassing for them.

"Whoa"

"Whoa"

At this moment, the sound of huge water flow was heard on the sea surface with strong winds, which made everyone turn their heads and look at the sea surface.

The rough sea surface revealed the moist seabed at some point. The seabed covered with seaweed and corals showed everyone that it had just been in the water and was suddenly exposed to the air.

"This is..." Seeing this scene, Yorkser's pupils shrank, and he immediately held the intercom and said: "All fleets stop immediately, and the submarines that are sailing should also pay attention to the sea ahead and stop rushing forward."

He had not forgotten what Jiro Ishii had told him before. The strange scene before his eyes should be the living magma that the other party had mentioned.

"General Yorkser, what is going on? Why is there such a situation in the sea?"

"Yes, this exposed seabed looks like someone suddenly took away the seawater."

How could the generals have ever seen such a strange thing in their lifetime? Dun asked Yorkser in a chattering voice.

"It's no use asking me. I've never seen anything like this before." Yorkser looked at the sea and said, "Tell the soldiers to be careful. Ishii Jiro said this thing is alive and can move."

"What! This thing can move?" Upon hearing this, everyone's face changed. Before they could continue saying anything, new situations appeared on the sea.

On this exposed seabed, the fiery red magma was rushing towards this side as if it had life.

"Hurry... run, don't stay here."

Seeing the fiery red light illuminating the sea, the generals immediately shouted.

But in a second, the sea surface where they were staying disappeared quietly, as if all the water had been suddenly sucked away.

All of a sudden, hundreds of warships sank with a whoosh, and even faster than them were the submarines advancing in the sea water below. Before these submarines could figure out what was happening, they appeared in the air like fish that had lost the sea water, and then fell towards the seabed one by one.

"What Jiro Ishii said is actually true. This damn thing can really move." Yorkser stood on the deck. Although he was falling continuously, there was no panic expression on his face.

At this time, he finally understood what happened to Ishii Jiro's fleet. But he was not the useless guy like Ishii Jiro.

"All warships, turn on flight mode." Yorkser shouted.

The hull of the descending warship suddenly opened with a "swish", revealing a pair of large wings that glided in the sky like an osprey.

"What!!"

The many generals standing on the warships did not expect that the fleet of the Ling State actually had such a trick, so they looked around, only to see that their fleets had already come into close contact with the seabed and turned into burning fires in the huge explosion.

"My fleet..." Upon seeing this scene, the generals showed painful expressions on their faces. Their fleet was completely wiped out, without even a complete one. How could they explain to their respective countries?

"Now is not the time to worry about the fleet. If we don't handle it well, we will be gone soon." Yorkser said as he looked at the molten lava approaching rapidly in the distance.

Do these guys still have the ATC fleet? They don't see what's approaching in the distance, do they?

"What's wrong? General Yorkser." After hearing this, everyone came back to their senses and asked hurriedly.

"You will understand if you look at it." Yorkser pointed to the distance and said. If someone looked in the direction he pointed, they would see the scene that horrified them.

"What's going on?" Everyone asked in horror upon seeing this scene.

Why would there be magma like the ocean on the seabed? They had never heard of such a thing before they came.

"The conscious magma ocean that Jiro Ishii talked about." Yorkser said with a gloomy face.

"Sentient magma?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this and asked, "Isn't this fake?"

They had heard it from General Yorkser, but they just thought it was a joke. How could magma be alive?

"I never said this was a joke." Looking at the surging waves of molten lava, Yorkser spoke and asked the soldiers to quickly raise the warship.

"It's okay for the helicopter to fly, but do you want your warship to fly away?" Zhong Cong, who was lying in the molten lava, was speechless when he saw the warship rising in the sky. Why are flying things getting more and more weird these days?

It looks like it's time to clean up the sky a bit.

"Boom boom"

"Boom boom boom"

Pillars of magma emerged from the surging ocean of magma, rushed towards the sky, and soon approached the flying warship.

"Hurry...fly faster." Seeing this scene, everyone on the warship lost three of their seven souls and shouted in panic.

This magma is really alive. Jiro Ishii was not talking nonsense. Now they are being chased by the magma.

"Even if a warship has wings, it is not an airplane after all. How can it fly so fast?" Seeing the molten lava column about to hit the warship, Yorkser jumped up, and a pair of large black wings appeared behind him, and then he flapped away from the warship.

"General Yorkser, wait for us."

Seeing Yorkser leaving, everyone couldn't help but panic. Strange-shaped wings appeared behind him, and he abandoned the warships under his feet and flew into the sky.

Not long after they left the warship, it was swallowed up by the column of molten lava. A huge roar sounded below, scaring everyone so much that they flapped their wings desperately and flew upwards.

"You're quite a runner." Zhong Cong sneered at the mosquito-like black shadows in the sky. Flying in front of him? Do you know how to write the word death?
"Finally, we have saved our lives. We have flown to this altitude, so the molten lava can't possibly come up again, right?"

"It's definitely not going to work. We're about to fly out of the sea, which is a distance of several thousand meters."

Looking at the molten lava falling back below, the people flying couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But the next second, there was a loud sound of breaking wind above my head, and a bright red light.

"Whizzing"

"Whizzing"

Under the dark night sky, countless molten lava fell from the sky like raindrops, so dense that even a mosquito could be killed.

"How is this possible?" The people whose faces were illuminated red by the lava had a look of fear in their eyes.

The next second they let out desperate screams, and dense rain of molten lava fell from the sky, and no matter how they struggled they could not avoid it.

Once it got on them, it immediately corroded their bodies.

"Is this conscious magma?" Yorkser, whose half body was hit by the magma and turned into charcoal, looked at the sky with his pupils gradually dilated.

"one two three four……"

"I don't sense any breath of life. They should be almost dead." Zhong Cong, who was lying in the molten lava, raised his claws and pointed at the small black dots that had fallen. After confirming that there was no breath of life, he slowly turned around and planned to return to the shore.

We have dealt with so many warships and submarines in this trip. It's time to go back to the shore and take a rest. By the way, ask how many enemies are left to be dealt with?
Otherwise, if all the enemies were eliminated, and he was still wandering around here, wouldn't he be like a fool?

"Boom boom boom"

"Boom boom boom"

As Zhong Cong moved towards the shore, the sea water began to return to the empty seabed, washing away all the debris on the seabed.
