They traveled through time at the same time, but the villainous scientist

Chapter 375 Military Intervention
Just then, a sharp and continuous buzzing sound came from afar, breaking the deathly silence in the royal hall.

The sound grew louder and louder, as if countless enormous swarms of metal bees were hovering over the royal city.

"what sound?"

A Behemoth soldier looked up warily and saw a swarm of drones.

Then, a clear, calm male voice with a standard official tone poured down from all directions of the sky, resounding throughout the entire Nathan Island.

"Warning! Warning! Attention all Behemoth armed personnel who have landed on Nathan Island without permission! Your actions have seriously violated the personal safety and legitimate rights of our citizens."

"We demand that you immediately cease all armed operations, release our citizens who are being illegally detained by you, and guarantee their personal safety. Otherwise, we reserve the right to take all necessary measures, including the use of force, to protect our citizens!"

"I repeat, immediately cease all armed operations and release our citizens..."

The broadcast echoed over the island, each word like a resounding slap across Ron's face.

His face, flushed red with anger, was now contorted into a grotesque grimace.

A citizen? Which citizen? King Nathan?!

He gripped the ID card tightly in his hand, almost crushing the thin plastic.

He suppressed his anger, pulled out his communicator from his waist, his fingers turning white from the force, and dialed the number he hated to the core.

The communication was answered almost instantly.

"F***! Zhuge Qing!"

Ron's voice sounded like it was being squeezed out from between his teeth, filled with barely suppressed rage.
"What on earth do you want to do?!"

On the other end of the line, Zhuge Qing's voice was as calm as ever, even carrying a faint hint of a smile, as if he were chatting with an old friend.

“What am I doing, Mr. Ron? I’ve made myself very clear from the beginning.”

We will not abandon any citizen.

"citizen?!"

Ron laughed in fury, his laughter sharp and piercing.
"Heh... Including King Nathan? I clearly warned that anyone who tries to lay a finger on Nathan Island will be considered an enemy! And now you've conjured up a Chinese identity for her out of thin air. Isn't this just deliberately causing trouble?!"

“Mr. Ron, I think you should know this.”

Zhuge Qing's tone remained calm, yet it carried a sharp logic.

"According to the tradition of Nathan Island, each Nathan King is issued an identity certificate by the country where his bloodline originated, that is, the country where he is registered."

The bloodline of this current King Nathan happens to originate from here.

Her identification was issued by us, and she has accepted it. Is there a problem with that?

A series of rhetorical questions, like precise shots, silenced all of Ron's accusations.

He opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.

Yes, is there a problem?

They were the ones who issued Elijah's identification, which is why they had the opportunity to cooperate with them.

"Good good..."

Ron said "good" three times in a row, his chest heaving violently, his eyes blazing with fury.

"You guys had a great time! If you want your 'citizen,' come and get it yourself!"
"I'd like to see how your wrecked ship manages to snatch people from my aircraft carrier and thousands of elite soldiers!"

He knew that no matter how reasonable the other party's demands were, they were nothing but empty talk in the face of absolute force.

At most, they will engage in some verbal battles internationally and suffer some moral condemnation afterward.

When have they, Behemoths, ever been afraid of these things?

"Ah."

A soft laugh came from the other end of the line, filled with disdain and anticipation.

"Well then... let's wait and see."

The communication was abruptly and decisively cut off.

"Beep...beep...beep..."

Hearing the busy tone on the communicator, Ron angrily smashed it to the ground, shattering it into pieces.

Meanwhile, on a cargo ship in international waters, Zhuge Qing put down his phone, calmly turned around, and gave orders to the communications officer in front of him.

"let's start."

……

On the deck of the cargo ship, Leng Feng and hundreds of warriors in strange armor behind him had already assembled and stood silently like mountains.

They were divided into three teams based on color: Xing Tian in red, Fei Ying in blue, and Jingang in yellow.

Their armor varied in design, with cold, hard lines, full of metallic texture and power, reflecting a cold light as the sea breeze blew.

With Zhuge Qing's command, a huge crack appeared in the seemingly ordinary deck of the cargo ship, and it slowly slid to both sides.

What was revealed was not the ship's cabin, but a huge circular magical array inscribed with countless complex runes.

The next moment, the matrix operation unit and the massive energy core below the magic circle were activated simultaneously.

Amidst the buzzing sound, the primordial Qi was instantly extracted, transformed, and injected into the magic array.

All the runes lit up at the same moment, emitting a brilliant and dazzling light, and the pillar of light that shot into the sky completely enveloped Leng Feng and the entire armored army he led.

Within the light, space began to distort and fold, like a canvas being kneaded by an invisible hand.

In the blink of an eye, the pillar of light dissipated.

The armored troops on the deck, along with the blinding light, had vanished without a trace.

Nathan Island, the battlefield outside the royal city.

Behemoth's soldiers are clearing out the remaining resistance, which consists of company assets.

However, the next moment, the space rippled like water, and several heavily armored figures appeared out of thin air within the ripples. The Behemoth soldiers, who were still sweeping the battlefield, were stunned at first, but then, their rigorous training made them instinctively raise their weapons.

At this point in time, the only thing that could appear on the island in this way is an enemy.

"Fire!"

Someone let out a roar.

The next moment, dense tongues of fire spewed from countless gun muzzles, and bullets rained down like a violent storm of metal towards the suddenly appearing armored men.

Faced with a hail of bullets capable of instantly tearing flesh and blood to shreds, the [Diamond Armor] neither dodged nor evaded, but instead took the initiative to meet the attack head-on.

He took heavy steps, each one causing the ground to tremble slightly.

Countless bullets struck the breastplate, exploding into dazzling sparks, yet not even a white mark was left.

He was like a mobile fortress, charging headlong into the enemy lines despite the gunfire.

"Standard bullets are ineffective! Introduce heavy firepower!"

A squad leader shouted hoarsely and turned to retrieve the anti-materiel weapon from the rear.

However, his movements came to an abrupt halt.

A swift, blue afterimage, accompanied by crackling lightning, appeared behind him like a ghost.

That's the [Flying Shadow Armor], its speed is so fast that it's impossible for the naked eye to detect it.

"boom!"

With a muffled clap of thunder, the squad leader, along with his weapon, was sent flying by a powerful whip kick. His body was deformed in mid-air before crashing heavily into the distant ruins, where he fell silent.

Similar scenes were playing out simultaneously on various battlefields across the island where armored troops had cut through.

This mysterious force that descended from the sky displayed terrifying combat power beyond imagination.

They are divided into teams of three, including heavily armored assault troops like the "Diamond Armor" who are indestructible, and agile assassins like the "Flying Shadow Armor" who are elusive and quick.

There's also the well-rounded [Xingtian Armor], and together they work in perfect harmony, beginning an efficient and ruthless suppression of Behemoth's ground forces.

Inside the royal city hall, Ron's communicator was constantly ringing with urgent reports of various squads being ambushed, suffering heavy casualties, requesting support, and even eventually losing signal.

His facial muscles twitched uncontrollably, and his expression was extremely ugly.

He turned around abruptly and looked at the deep pit behind the hall, which was being dug by heavy machinery. At the bottom of the pit, one could vaguely see a huge, intertwined root system.

That is the heart of this island, the legendary sacred tree.

They would never leave before they had fully obtained the divine tree!

Thinking of this, a ruthless glint flashed in Ron's eyes. He grabbed a new communicator and issued the order:
"All ground troops, abandon the clearing out of the remaining aliens and regroup in the royal city area! Protect the excavation work at all costs! Once the divine tree is in hand, escort it out immediately!"

However, no sooner had he finished speaking than a panicked voice suddenly came through the communicator.

He was the adjutant, Gad, who remained aboard the USS George Washington.

"Ron! Something's wrong! We've been attacked by cyberattack! The aircraft carrier's propulsion and fire control systems... are all out of control!"

"How can it be?!"

"An aircraft carrier has a 'hound' force! How could it possibly be breached?!"

Ron exclaimed in surprise, "The 'Hounds' are Behemoth's top cyber warfare force. They uploaded their consciousness to the network, forming several powerful AI firewalls with independent thinking capabilities, theoretically indestructible."

“It’s…it’s ‘Phantom’…”

Gade's voice was filled with fear and despair.

"It's that legendary cyber ghost..."

"Phantom?!"

"You mean that 'Phantom'?! Didn't she disappear a long time ago? At this point in time... could it be... that she's someone who knows everything?!"

Ron's face turned deathly pale instantly, a terrifying thought surfaced in his mind, and made him feel cold all over.

He wanted to ask something more, but suddenly a deafening explosion came from the other end of the communication.

Communication has been interrupted.

At the same moment, in the high seas off Nathan Island, a scene that shocked the world was unfolding.

One of the escort ships in the Behemoth carrier strike group, like a mad bull that had lost control, turned its guns around and aimed the dark barrels at the massive flagship, the USS George Washington.

Amidst the horrified gazes of countless people, the frigate's engines roared at maximum power as it rammed into the aircraft carrier, followed by the main guns spewing forth angry flames.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the network world, in a virtual space composed of countless data streams, Er Zhuang stretched comfortably, clapped his hands, and looked at the data wreckage of the "hound" that had disintegrated into countless points of light, revealing a satisfied smile.

"This new 'toy' is really useful."

Looking at the device beside her, Er Zhuang smiled. The device, which Zhuge Qing called the "body-refining furnace," had not only reshaped her body.

In an even more bizarre way, they copied some of her soul traits to create several "artificial souls" that lacked independent consciousness but completely retained her thought patterns and computational abilities.

Furthermore, after she left her yin spirit state, her soul's ability to resonate with electromagnetic waves granted her the special ability to perform ultra-high-speed parallel computations...

Simply put, if she was a powerful single-core processor in the past, then now she is equivalent to having sixteen cores, jumping directly from i3 to i9.

In this world made up of 0s and 1s, she is the omnipotent God!
……

The bridge command center of the aircraft carrier USS George Washington.

The piercing alarm and violent tremors left the entire bridge in a mess.

All the screens flickered a few times after that fatal blow, then went completely black.

Gade slumped down beside the captain's chair, staring blankly at the extinguished screens, his eyes filled with emptiness and death.

Their operation this time... has completely failed.
