Chapter 310 Level 5 Monster Civilization (4K)
Looking around, the stone figures' bodies present a strange beauty that is half life and half mineral.

It resembles both a human and a living crystal sculpture.

Their eyes are two deep-set obsidian spheres, their mouths can split into four pieces, they have no noses, only pores.

Its body is slender and angular, with obvious crystalline growth structures at the joints, and its movements are sometimes accompanied by a slight mineral friction sound. Its skin is even more peculiar; it is not flesh and blood, but a translucent silicon-based film, within which liquid metallic blood can be seen flowing.

Through its translucent skin, one can also see its spine, composed of segmented stone pillars, and numerous petrified internal organs.

"Are there still such mutated monsters in the inner world?" Fang Yong's eyes widened.

People from Tomorrow Alliance's mobile city rushed onto the deck, all looking at the stone figures.

The latter also noticed the Tomorrow Alliance in front of them, as well as the people on the deck.

But for these stone figures, the moving city before them seemed utterly incomprehensible.

The stone figures communicated with each other using a cacophony of sounds and gestures, their eyes revealing expressions of shock.

Li Ye's expression changed slightly.

He noticed something.

The stone people's clothing was quite primitive.

They wore simple skirts and waistcoats made of natural materials such as tree bark and grass leaves, with fur shawls draped over their shoulders and wooden bows and arrows and spears strapped to their backs.

Therefore, a guess arose in his mind.

The stone men may not be monsters or mutated life forms that descended due to supernatural modifications, but rather a native race of the inner world.

"Whether it is or not, we'll find out once we try it."

Under orders from the field, a special forces member picked up a Silent Death sniper rifle, aimed at one of the stone figures, and fired.

As a result, this stone figure was easily shot dead, while the other stone figures fled in panic.

Li Ye sent someone to retrieve the stone man's body, and found that it had indeed not fallen.

“These are the original races of the inner world!” Li Ye said in a deep voice.

After reaching out and touching the stone figure's corpse, his expression gradually became solemn.

"Could this be silicon-based life?"

Humans, whether on Blue Star or Azure Star, are all carbon-based life forms.

Silicon-based life is a hypothesis proposed by scientists.

The main elements of silicon-based life are silicon and oxygen, not carbon and hydrogen, which are the main elements of carbon-based life.

It differs fundamentally from carbon-based life, with its physiological behavior and structure, energy metabolism and social behavior all based on silicon chemistry, adaptation to extreme environments and mineral interactions.

Carbon-based life relies on water, oxygen, and sunlight for survival and metabolism, while silicon-based life relies on geothermal energy, minerals, and high pressure for survival and metabolism.

Compared to humans living on the surface of the earth, the stone people are better adapted to the extreme environment of the inner earth, and they have a longer lifespan.

This giant stone forest was clearly the habitat of the stone people.

Through careful observation, the group discovered the stone man's living habits.

They lived in tribal communities and fed on the minerals that grew in the stone forest.

If they accidentally lose an arm or a leg, new limbs will slowly grow from the wound—in this respect, they are much more resilient than humans.

Stone people, like humans, grow crops, but their "crops" are clusters of mineral crystals.

Some stone figures also undergo crystallization hibernation, during which their bodies shrink into a circular cocoon covered with an insulating layer of silica.

Some stone figures will even travel to volcanic areas and soak in lava rivers or lava lakes to absorb energy.

To everyone's surprise, the level 5 mutated creatures in the volcanic area did not attack them.

"What exactly is going on?" Fang Yong asked, puzzled.

After pondering for a moment, Li Ye offered his own guess.

These silicon-based life forms, the Stone People, are, in a sense, like stones. They do not possess obvious vital signs like humans.

The mutated creatures likely judged the stone men as lifeless "dead things" in this way, and therefore did not attack them.

For a moment, everyone was filled with emotion.

Human civilization in the Earth's crust suffered an unprecedented catastrophe due to supernatural alterations, while the stone figures in the Earth's core remained largely unaffected.

In the time that followed, they even witnessed a tribal war among the stone people.

Since the Stone Forest still possesses considerable mineral resources, Li Ye simply stopped bothering the Tomorrow Alliance to continue its operations and directly ordered the alliance to station themselves near the Stone Forest to collect resources.

At the same time, he dispatched multiple reconnaissance aircraft to continue investigating the situation in the Earth's core.

Not long after, a reconnaissance plane transmitted important information.

Monsters have come ashore on the shore of the Fiery Sea.

According to the pilot's description, it was a monster with a human body and a snake's tail.

The monster was forty to fifty meters long, with skin that was a deep red like lava, covered with cracked patterns. Its face had high cheekbones, a sharp chin, and a mouth that split open to its ears, revealing serrated lava fangs. With each breath, it spewed out thick smoke that smelled of sulfur.

Its body is long and deformed, covered with thorns of all sizes, and a long, serpentine tail covered with scales extends from its waist, leaving scorched, winding trails as it moves along the coast.

Li Ye's heart skipped a beat.

Its appearance is very similar to that of a fire demon.

"Could this also be silicon-based life?" Fang Yong asked tentatively.

After pondering for a moment, Li Ye gently shook his head.

"No, I feel it's more like a level 5 monster, or even a monster civilization."

Out of caution, he personally led his troops to attack the fire demon.

Sure enough, it was indeed a level 5 creature.

The fire demon even spoke.

"Humans? Why are you here?" Its words were tinged with surprise and anger. "Get out! This is our land!"

"Us?" Li Ye was slightly taken aback. "Are you some kind of monster civilization?"

The fire demon gave a cold laugh.

"of course."

Li Ye was slightly taken aback.

Unexpectedly, Tomorrow Alliance encountered a level 5 monster civilization right from the start! And it was in the Netherworld.

His gaze swept quickly over the fire demon's body.

Given their size of forty to fifty meters, these monsters are clearly not suited for driving vehicles or moving through cities.

The Fire Demon Civilization may not rely on vehicles and mobile cities—based on past observations, this is certainly not good news. "I'll reiterate! You'd better get out of the Netherworld before our Fire Demon Civilization makes its move!" the Fire Demon declared. "Otherwise, you'll suffer a terrible fate!"

Li Ye gave a cold laugh.

The Tomorrow Alliance possesses a recall device, allowing them to return to their home island at any time.

But he didn't just leave whenever he wanted.

"It's not up to you to decide."

He ordered his troops to continue firing at the fire demon.

However, to Li Ye's surprise, the Fire Demon also possessed the ability to manipulate flames!
With a wave of its hand, countless blazing waves of heat surged forth from the sea of ​​fire, gathering around its body to form a fiery shield.

Upon seeing this scene, everyone's expression changed.

"It can even manipulate fire? That's practically a superpower, isn't it?" Li Ye pondered. "No wonder it's a level 5 monster."

Moments later, the fire demon was shot dead.

Before it died, it looked back at the surging, boiling sea of ​​fire behind it and spoke with passionate indignation.

"My fellow countrymen! Humans have invaded our homeland. We must unite and drive them all out!"

The sound echoed for a long time on the scorching sea.

Li Ye immediately ordered the troops to return to the Tomorrow and gathered his comrades to tell them what he had seen and heard.

"There's actually a level 5 monster civilization hidden in the Flaming Sea?" Yang Zheng's expression changed immediately.

"Alliance Leader, the Fire Demon Civilization is definitely running out of time for us. We must prepare for battle," Zhou Xing said.

"We possess a Level 5 electromagnetic railgun and a gravitational wave controller. Even against a Level 5 monster civilization, we are not without a fighting chance!" Fang Yong declared emphatically.

After thinking for a moment, Li Ye gently shook his head.

From the very beginning, Tomorrow Alliance was in a passive position, only able to defend and not attack.

After all, the Fire Demon Civilization is located in the Flame Sea, which is an extremely harsh terrain and environment. The forces of the Tomorrow Alliance simply cannot enter the Flame Sea.

The Fire Demon Civilization could rely on the Flame Sea to launch continuous attacks on the Tomorrow Alliance—in fact, Li Ye was very curious about the Fire Demon Civilization's troops and attack methods.

Faced with this rematch, Tomorrow is unable to unleash its full potential. The carrier fleet and naval mobile suits cannot be deployed externally, leaving it to rely solely on air and naval forces.

But upon thinking of the surging, boiling sea of ​​fire, Li Ye's figure involuntarily froze.

"This time, I'm afraid not only the naval forces will be unable to deploy, but even the land forces will be unable to do so," he said slowly.

"Why, Alliance Leader?" Fang Yong asked in surprise.

“The fire demons possess the ability to manipulate flames, and they may very well create a fiery tsunami in the Sea of ​​Fire to attack us,” Li Ye replied. “At that time, not only the ground forces, but even our mobile cities will be submerged.”

After a moment's thought, Fang Yong and the others' faces gradually turned pale.

“Now, have all mobile cities immediately undergo aerial conversion,” Li Ye said. “Let’s take off and get as far away from Yan Hai as possible.”

As his companions gave orders to the mobile cities, he silently calculated the combat power that the Tomorrow Alliance could mobilize this time.

The gravitational wave controller of the Iron Whale.

The Peacemaker's cannons, missiles, and electromagnetic railgun.

The Tomorrow's fighter squadron consists of two Tier 4 air combat mobile suits, one Tier 5 super mobile suit, and the Iron Curtain device.

Starship.

"This is definitely not enough," he thought to himself.

To bolster their combat capabilities, Li Ye also temporarily added accessories to two naval mobile suits, converting them into air combat mobile suits.

A few hours later.

The entire sea of ​​fire was engulfed in unprecedented rage.

Thick, molten gold-like waves of fire surged and churned in the sea of ​​flames, colliding with each other as they boiled, producing a piercing sound like shattering glass.

Suddenly, the sea of ​​fire rose up as if grabbed by an invisible giant hand, and a raging tsunami stretching across the sky was formed.

The outer wall of the tsunami was translucent orange-red, with incandescent vortices flowing inside.

As it slowly began to advance, the air within a radius of 100 meters was sucked away, turning into a distorted vortex of heat.

The fiery tsunami then invaded the volcanic area, and the surface rock of the volcanic group shattered as easily as an eggshell. Tens of thousands of tons of basalt blocks were thrown into the air and melted into a red meteor shower in the fire wave.

The volcanoes were thus absorbed into the tsunami, their bodies softening and cascading like candles, collapsing entirely with a deafening roar.

At this very moment, the five mobile cities of the Tomorrow Alliance have completed their aerial driving modifications and have officially taken off from the edge of the Stone Forest.

The group learned the details from the reconnaissance pilots at the front lines.

"Alliance Leader, given the size of the fire demons, they can only move on land or sea; they can't fly, right?" Zhou Xing said. "Now that we've flown hundreds of meters into the air, neither the Flame Sea nor the fire demons should be a threat to us anymore."

Li Ye said in a low voice.

"Don't take any chances, Zhou Xing. This is a level 5 monster civilization."

In the sea of ​​fire, the fire demons appeared one after another.

They gazed at the inverted mountain range above them and let out a series of shrill cries.

Countless pillars of magma and fire rose from the sea of ​​fire as if they were alive. The fire demons leaped onto these fiery ladders, their lava-like claws precisely gripping the crystals that had solidified on the surface of the pillars. Their snake tails coiled around the boiling lava flow, and they used the enormous force of the erupting pillars to shoot straight up to the dome!
During this time, all the fire demons manipulated flames to explode, creating a violent shockwave that accelerated their charge.

This propulsion sent the fire demons hurtling towards the inverted mountain range like burning arrows. As their claws pierced the mountain's rock face and they landed, the trails of flames they left behind continued to burn in the air for several seconds before slowly dissipating.

Immediately afterwards, the fire demons launched a breathtaking three-dimensional charge along the inverted mountain range.

Their long, serpentine tails coiled around the crystallized rock walls, their scales rubbing against the ore and sparking dazzling fire, as they slithered swiftly along this vertical cliff.

A reconnaissance pilot from the Tomorrow aircraft saw this scene clearly.

The fire demons leaped and bounded between the inverted peaks with astonishing agility. They first pierced the rock walls with their lava claws, then suddenly contracted their snake tail muscles and released them like a taut bowstring, propelling their bodies towards another inverted peak hundreds of meters away.

The most elite fire demon vanguards can even adjust their posture in mid-air, using their forked tail spikes to hook onto protruding rock edges, completing incredible sudden changes of direction.

Each leap drew a scorching line of fire in the air, leaving a trail of sulfurous smoke behind it.

As they charged, the fire demons emitted a chilling chorus—the rustling sound of scales rubbing against the rock walls, the gurgling sound of the boiling sea below, and their unique high-frequency hissing.

These sounds were constantly reflected and amplified in the caves of the upside-down mountains, forming a destructive symphony similar to that played on a pipe organ.

At a certain moment, all the fire demons suddenly let out a shriek, and the sound wave shattered the mineral crystal clusters within a radius of several miles of the Upside-Down Mountains, with fragments falling everywhere.

Li Ye and the others heard about this from the pilot.

"So that's how they attack!" Fang Yong suddenly realized.

Li Ye waved his hand gently.

"Now, let's begin the battle."
